CH.84 Picking Up Cheap
The auctioneer explained the benefits of the Horn of the Wind, and then the starting price was quoted.
"The starting price for this Horn is ...... 600,000 gold coins! Now that the auction is open, please place an offer. The auctioneer shouted.
The reaction below was unusually cold, and there was not even a single person who made an offer, which made the auction fall into a cold field.
An Rui originally wanted to bid for the auction, but when he saw that no one else was bidding, his eyes turned around, and he temporarily pressed the idea of bidding and remained silent.
This situation was unexpected by the auctioneers, and it seems that the lack of secret words has seriously dampened the bidders' enthusiasm for bidding. The previous treasure appraiser had clearly overestimated the price of this treasure.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Horn of the Wind, it is a famous treasure in history, and it has defeated many strong people, such as ......" The auctioneer's forehead broke out with sweat, and he praised the Horn of the Wind, but he couldn't save the situation.
The atmosphere of the auction became very awkward.
The auctioneer, who used to be talkative, now looks like a ridiculous clown.
It is rare for this kind of auction item to be unattended, and the auctioneer didn't know what to do for a while, and considered whether to skip this auction link and sell the next auction item directly. At this moment, the sound transmission stone in his pocket rang, and a short sentence was heard.
"Cut the price of the Horn by half and sell it at a low price. The lack of corresponding secret words has greatly reduced the value of this treasure, and it can no longer be expected to sell for a high price. β
The auctioneer was slightly relieved to hear that it was the voice of the senior manager. I finally know what to do with it.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to tell you a good news, in order to thank you for your support to the World Business Alliance over the years. The auction made a temporary decision to reduce the price of this horn in return for everyone's support. I announce that the starting price of this Horn has been reduced to 300,000 gold coins! That's right, just 300,000 gold coins! Even if you search all over the world, you can't find such a cheap horn to call the wind. Everyone, don't hesitate any longer. Hurry up and get started! The auctioneer shouted enthusiastically.
It is still not cost-effective to buy a diamond-level treasure without secret words at the price of 300,000 gold coins, and the enthusiasm of the auctioneers is still not high. Only a handful of wealthy people with a lucky mentality participated in the auction.
For this price, Anrui is already very satisfied. Buying a treasure worth millions of gold coins for a mere 300,000 gold coins is simply picking up a bargain. He participated in the auction. Beat the other bidders. At the price of more than 300,000 gold coins, I bought this horn to call the wind.
"That young man is so rich that he even buys treasures without secret words."
He must have thought that he could find someone to decipher the code, which was naΓ―ve. If he could decipher it, it would have been deciphered a long time ago, so how could it be his turn to find someone to decipher it. β
"Hehe, if you can't decipher the secret language, this horn is just an ordinary horn. Not to mention 300,000 gold coins, even 10,000 gold coins are not worth it. β
"There are many wrongs."
The auctioneers exchanged heads. There was a lot of discussion, and all of them regarded An Rui as a stupid person with a lot of money.
For these words, Anrui just laughed it off.
After the other two finale items were also auctioned, the auction finally came to a successful conclusion. The last two auction items had a starting price of more than one million gold coins, and the transaction price was even more surprisingly high, and Anrui did not participate in the bidding. If he buys one of them, he's going to go bankrupt.
After the auction, the bidders slowly exited and walked towards different exits.
Anrui didn't rush to pay to complete the transaction, but chased after Cheryl who was mixed in the crowd, intending to say hello first.
At this moment, Cheryl quarreled with the jeweled male companion beside her.
"Mr. Winter, please be respectful and take care of your own hands! I'm your father's branch president, not a prostitute in a brothel. Cheryl's snow-white face flashed with two flushes, and she yelled at the man.
"You misunderstood, I just accidentally bumped into you just now, don't make such a fuss?" The man smiled, his face evil.
"It may be careless if you touch it once, but will it be careless if you touch it three or four times?"
"Cheryl, there are so many people here, it's inconvenient to speak, let's go somewhere else and talk about it."
"I've had enough of you, I don't want to walk with people like you anymore, let's go separately."
The two continued to argue, and the man always looked like a hippie smile.
Anrui took the words of the two men into his ears, his face sank, and he walked over, all the way behind the man named Winter.
"Cheryl, my father handed over this big business to the two of us, and we still have a lot to talk about later, how can we go separately." Winter was still chattering.
"Anrui!" Cheryl, who was huffing, suddenly saw the figure behind Winter and shouted in shock.
Winter's words were interrupted, and he slowly turned around to find a young man with a calm face standing behind him. Anrui? How the name is a little familiar.
"Who are you, and what does it have to do with Cheryl?" An Rui was a little taller than Winter, looked down at Winter, and asked in a deep voice.
"What is my relationship with Cheryl, what is your business?" Winter snorted and asked angrily.
"I'm a friend of Cheryl, and when I saw her being bullied, I naturally had to come over and take care of her."
"Hehe, do you have something wrong with your eyes, which eye sees me bullying Cheryl? I like her so much, it's too late to care for her, how can I bully her. Also, this is my business with her, and I don't need you as an outsider to interfere, so I don't have to be nosy in that cat and mouse. I'll count to three, you get out of front of my eyes, and if you go slowly, don't blame me for being rude to you. Winter sneered and said arrogantly.
An Rui's face became even more gloomy, as if he had returned to the battlefield not long ago, exuding a chill all over his body.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Cheryl hurriedly came up to play a round, sandwiched between the two, turned his head to An Rui, and whispered: "An Rui, his name is Winter, he is the son of the president of the Golden Fleece Chamber of Commerce, and he is also a very strong fighter, even I am not his opponent. Today, Xie Lu thanked you for coming forward to help me speak, but please calm down and don't conflict with him. You also know that I am the branch president of the Golden Fleece Chamber of Commerce, and if you offend the president's son, it will be difficult for me. β
"It turns out that he is the son of the President of the Golden Fleece." Anrui finally figured out the identity of this Winter, but he was not bluffed by this identity. Not to mention the son of the President of the Golden Fleece, even if it is the entire Golden Fleece Chamber of Commerce, he will not take it seriously.
"Hmph, I know my identity, don't hurry up! Today, for the sake of being Cheryl's friend, I'll let you go, remember to stay away from me in the future, and don't shake it in front of me. If you jump in front of me next time, it won't be so easy to let you go. Winter pressed his hand to the hilt of the sword hanging from his waist and raised his face.
"Winter!" Cheryl was so angry that she hurriedly turned her head, "Don't say a word, this friend of mine is not an ordinary person." β
"Not ordinary? What's not ordinary? Winter asked.
"It's not ordinary." Anrui took the initiative to answer the question, and his body was lightning fast around Cheryl, rushed to Winter, raised his leg and kicked Winter's chest. With a muffled bang, Winter flew upside down, all the way to the wall of the venue, and slammed into the wall.
This kick was quite hard, directly kicking and breaking more than a dozen bones of Winter, thanks to the fact that he was a warrior, his body was strong, and he resisted hard, if he was replaced by an ordinary person, he would have to be kicked out.
"Vomit ......" Winter slid down the wall, making a strange sound in his throat and vomiting a mouthful of blood.
"Oh my God!" Cheryl looked at the seriously injured Winter, and her face changed at that time, "Anrui, you are in big trouble now, he is the son of President of the Golden Fleece!" β
"It doesn't matter whose son he is, if he is not convinced, he can come to me for revenge." Anrui doesn't care.
Cheryl also wanted to go over to check on Winter's injury, but was pulled by Anrui.
An Rui didn't want Cheryl to have anything to do with this hairy person anymore, so he directly dragged Cheryl away. He walked side by side with his old friend on the road, deliberately diverting the topic and asking about the other person's current situation.
At this point, Cheryl could only resign herself to fate, and talked about her recent situation with a wry smile. Before An Rui pointed out a money-making route to her, she tossed back and forth on that route for a long time and made a lot of money. Recently, the Golden Fleece Chamber of Commerce had a big business to do, so she temporarily left that route and came here to meet with the president.
"An Rui, I really didn't expect to meet you here, in the vast sea, it is not easy to meet people." Cheryl sighed.
"It's a coincidence." An Rui nodded.
At this time, an auction staff came over and asked with a smile at An Rui: "This gentleman, you have auctioned four auction items in the auction before, when do you plan to complete the transaction of these four auction items?" β
This is to ask for money.
"I'll pay it off in a moment, you lead the way." An Rui replied. He came here to participate in the auction, and he knew that Lu Dao would spend a lot of money, and he deliberately brought a few extra space packages full of diamond coins and gold coins, and he was able to take out millions of gold coins at one time.
"Sir, please, I will take you to the trading hall to complete the transaction, and will hand over the four trading items to you as soon as possible." The staff made a gesture of please, and then walked in front to lead the way.
Cheryl stayed by An Rui's side, heard these words clearly, and was secretly surprised in her heart, the auction items in this auction are more expensive than the other, at least tens of thousands of gold coins, and buying four auction items here at once can definitely be regarded as wealthy! Even though Winter, who had been beaten before, was very rich, he only bought one auction item, and it was still the auction item that appeared in the first round. (To be continued......)
