Chapter 59: The Shadow Merchant
About half an hour later, Zhang Xiaobai got up and left, saying that he wanted to go back early to prepare for the auction.
According to him, there is an auction of the best monster eggs at tonight's auction, and the news has already spread throughout Jingnan Town, and Luo Wen, a person who does not leave home, does not know......
Rowan smiled and watched him out the door, then returned to the lab to record some temporary data.
In the process of recording, he was thinking about the news brought by Zhang Xiaobai in his mind.
"Then what big guy actually died like this? What variables does this bring to the audit exam? Is it to revert to the way it was, or to empty it completely? In any case, it doesn't matter much to me. All I need to do now is go at my own pace! ”
After completing a new round of records, Rowan walked out of the lab, retrieved his father's black dress from his closet, put it in the hunter's badge, and went out.
There was still some time before the auction officially began, and he needed to do some preparation during this time.
……
At six o'clock that night, the auction started on time.
Taking advantage of the auction of the best monster eggs, many sellers have also offered treasures, which has added a lot of selling points to this auction.
Zhang Xiaobai, Yang Xiao and others sat in a private room, next door to their parents' box.
It is rare to have an auction of this scale in Jingnan Town, so almost all those who have some savings come to the auction hall, which makes the entire auction hall crowded, and even Yang Xiao and his son have not been able to book a single room.
However, Yang Xiao's father and son are just here to join in the fun, they have no demand for monster eggs, and most of them will not participate in the final competition.
As time passed, the auction became more and more lively, and finally in the gradually frenzied atmosphere, Rowan's [Stone Fire Ant] eggs officially appeared!
In order to maintain a sense of mystery, only a little data was recorded in the brochure that advertised the auction items, and most people only knew that the finale of this auction was the best monster egg with dual attributes of earth and fire, so when the master of ceremonies announced that the next item was a monster egg, the audience suddenly became a sensation.
In those public seats, many of the people who had been silent and had never bid suddenly sat up straight, as if they had arrived to wait for this moment!
Dressed in a splendid Luo shirt, a woman with heavy makeup holds a red box in her hand, and walks out of the back of the stage with small steps, if it is usual, people's attention is usually attracted by this enchanting woman, but now, the eyes of the audience all fall on the red box!
They were thinking, speculating, what kind of monster eggs were about to be auctioned?
Behind the woman, Master Lu, who was dressed in brocade clothes, followed closely.
He is an authority in the appraisal community throughout Jingnan Town, and he is also deeply trusted by others.
Therefore, these precious treasures are personally identified by him, and then auctioned in public.
This time, it's still the same.
But he is no longer the focus of attention.
Even if the gaffer focused the colored light on him, it still couldn't change the situation.
This made his face a little more unhappy.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, Master Lu lifted the lid of the box, revealing a piece of cotton red cloth.
Then, he reached out and pinched the foot of the red cloth, and then gently lifted it, and suddenly revealed two ant eggs under the red cloth!
"That's ...... Eggs of stone mortar ants? ”
In a certain box, Chen Ying stood up suddenly, and his eyes shot at the eggs of the stone mortar ants like electricity.
And Chen Xiong, who was behind him, was also staring at the two ant eggs in surprise at this moment.
Not long ago, they had seen a large number of monster eggs that looked the same......
Although the [Stone Mortar Ant] is not strong, it is a fairly rare monster, and their monster eggs will only be rarer!
They thought of Rowan almost instantly.
Chen Xiong roared angrily on the spot: "It can be said that the little rabbit cub is actually hiding secrets!" ”
Chen Ying glared at him fiercely, but he didn't stop him.
……
On the stage, after some "complex and meticulous" identification, Master Lu finally posted the estimated attributes of [Ice and Fire Ants] on the whiteboard.
[Race Value]: 161 (HP 22, Strength 30, Agility 29, Constitution 25, Intelligence 55)
As soon as this attribute was displayed, the scene suddenly fell silent, but then there was a burst of annoying sighs.
This appraisal result is indeed extraordinary, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the best.
In terms of attribute value, the pets of Yang Xiao and others are only to this extent.
Even Zhang Xiaobai couldn't help but admire: "A monster egg with both earth and fire attributes!" If it had been a year earlier, I would have competed. The best part is that there are two more, just enough to keep one for Rowan. ”
Hearing the word "Luo Wen", Yang Xiao couldn't help but glance at him, but he didn't belittle Luo Wen as usual.
Two of his team are already on Luo Wen's side, and Zhang Xiaobai is the three, and now mentioning Luo Wen will only be boring.
However, Wang Chao snorted slightly: "If it really appeared a year ago, how could it be your turn?" ”
He has the attribute of fire, and he is the son of the owner behind the auction house, so he is really qualified to say this.
The dual-attribute monster egg does have its own unique charm.
But just this level of "superlative" made many people in the audience feel dissatisfied, they either deliberately did so, or took the opportunity to play, and in a short period of time, it became more and more noisy.
Master Lu stood on the platform and deliberately ignored it.
He is not compatible with Rowan, but he has his own professional ethics, so of course he will not let go of such an opportunity.
First announce the attributes of these two weaker ant eggs, let the people in the audience make a fuss and ferment, and then when Rowan personally takes out another truly superb third-order ant egg, he can completely detonate the excitement on the scene. Feeling!
At that time, the price of that ant egg will inevitably be coaxed to a price beyond the range of reason!
Of course, in order not to let the scene get out of control, when the atmosphere was almost fermented, he slammed the hammer and said meaningfully: "Do you really think that this is the best? ”
The words caused a thousand waves, but the fiercest people who shouted before were the first to react, and they immediately fell silent one by one.
The eggs of the two [Ice and Fire Ants] were auctioned off at the normal price of 280,000 yuan and 300,000 yuan one in this strange atmosphere.
The third-order small and superb monster eggs are probably at this price, which is a huge amount of money that is difficult for ordinary townspeople to pay, and it is also an expense that needs to be considered for millionaires.
But for the truly rich, it's just an appetizer.
In the audience, the people who photographed these two monster eggs were not excited, they paid this sum of money just to ensure that they would not return empty-handed, and the real competition was still to come!
These people are not rich themselves, but they are the spokesmen of the plutocrats.
There are many rich people in this world, but the rampant monsters and blocked traffic make it impossible for them to spend their money, so such a group of people is born.
They rely on a network of contacts all over the world for purchasing and auctioning, and they are responsible for home delivery.
Their business is all over the world, and it is a unique business model that is emerging in this world, and they are known as "shadow merchants".
In the midst of all the attention, Rowan pushed a trolley and slowly walked onto the stage.
