Chapter 55: The Auction
Soon the auction hall was filled with people one after another, this was the only person in Lingyun City that would be full every day, and all kinds of large and small families and merchants from outside the city would come here to look for opportunities.
"This auction house is really rich, just hiring these maids will cost a lot of money, right?" Lang Yu sighed, every guest who entered would be accompanied by a maid, and some of the maids who sat in the front position would not leave after being led to their seats, but had been serving on the side.
"Most of these service staff are homeless girls that auction houses are looking for in various places, and they have specially trained them, and this kind of service can be regarded as unique. Murong Cheng smiled lightly and said.
At this time, Lang Ji saw eight more people walking in side by side, and recognized at a glance that it was the people of the Hua family, and the leader was Hua Wenjie.
Lang Yu poked Murong Xi with his elbow: "Hey, look, those people from the Hua family are here." ”
Murong Xi chuckled lightly and said, "Hehe, let them send us a lot of money today, brother, I don't have your share!" Murong Xi said and glanced back at Murong Cheng.
Murong Cheng smiled bitterly, his sister had excluded herself, and she really came over to be a free coolie.
The eight members of the Hua family also went up to the second floor under the guidance of the maids, and entered a private room, and after the maids brought them in, one of them was left to guard the door, and the rest dispersed.
"Hmph, you're still pretending to be elegant here, and I'll make you cry in a while!" Murong Xi wrinkled his nose and said.
The private room fee for this private room is very expensive, and the flower family has reached this point, and they don't even know how to save money.
......
"Big brother, is the news accurate?" Hua Wenhao sat in the private room and asked Hua Wenjie. It wouldn't be such a coincidence, the first day at home, someone asked for cold crystal chalcedony, and the next day the auction house actually had exactly ten catties of cold crystal chalcedony to be auctioned out, when did this cold crystal chalcedony become so common.
Hua Wenjie nodded, the look on his face was finally much more relaxed than the day before, and said lightly: "The news is absolutely accurate, the news specially released by the Yunxiao Auction House early in the morning, I sent someone to verify it, it seems that this time our Hua family has been saved, and God still favors us!"
Hearing this, the expressions of several people from the Hua family in the room relaxed a little, and the requirements that Murong Xi made to them pressed on their hearts like a boulder, but fortunately, their family's luck was not bad, and this was the most difficult thing to get, and they let their family touch it on the first day.
......
The three of them chatted in the room for a while, and after a while, a stunning woman in a long black dress on the auction table below walked to the stage.
"Distinguished guests, please be quiet, our auction is about to start, and many rare lots are waiting for the patronage of everyone in the audience, and if you buy it, you will earn it!" Although the woman's voice was not loud, it magically spread throughout the hall, including the people in the private room, they could be heard clearly.
When the people in the hall heard the woman's voice, they immediately fell silent, quietly waiting for the auction to officially begin.
"We're very lucky today, the black-clothed auctioneer is hosting, I'm afraid there is really something good today. Murong Xi said mysteriously.
"Black-clothed auctioneer, what does this mean?" Lang Yu was puzzled.
"Hey, in this auction house, the auctioneer distinguishes his rank according to the color of the clothes he wears, and the most ordinary auctioneer wears yellow clothes, and can only preside over in that kind of small auction room, which is not good. The higher ones are wearing green robes, and those who can preside over them in this auction hall, but they can only preside over some auctions that are not large-scale. ”
"And those dressed in black already belong to high-level auctioneers, and there will be some real treasures in the auctions they host, and many of them are also very useful to our cultivators. And the top auctioneers are dressed in blue, and the auctions they preside over are all treasures, many of them are the top ones, which are rare once in a thousand years!" Murong Xi opened his mouth to introduce Lang Yu.
Lang Ji clearly, it turns out that there are so many exquisiteness here.
"Okay, distinguished guests, I am Zheng Manqing, the senior auctioneer in charge of this auction, let's officially enter today's auction and invite our first lot!" said the black-clothed auctioneer with a sweet smile on his face.
On the side, a beautiful maid walked up with a tray in her hand, covered with a red cloth, and was sent to the auction table next to Zheng Manqing.
Zheng Manqing stretched out his beautiful hand and slowly uncovered the red cloth covering the tray, and a round ball with a silver light was placed on it.
All eyes were fixed on the orb, looking at it with some curiosity, and no one knew what it was.
Seeing the reaction of everyone in the audience, Zheng Manqing's face showed a shallow smile, and when the audience was quieter, he said: "Today's first lot is very extraordinary! Its name is 'Boundary Breaking Bead', as long as you inject spiritual power into it, you can spy on any place in the world you want to observe, of course, except for the enchantment made by some masters." ”
"Although this is an auxiliary item, it is the only one in the world at present, and for many people, its usefulness may be more important than a book of Heavenly Rank exercises. The smile on Zheng Manqing's face was full of temptation, "The starting price is 80,000 gold coins, and the price increase must not be less than 5,000 gold coins each time, start now!"
However, after hearing Zheng Manqing's introduction, the enthusiasm of those people on the field for this new thing instantly turned cold, and this thing seemed to be useless.
"Eighty thousand. A crisp woman's voice rang out.
Lang Yu and Murong Xuan were both stunned, and it was Murong Xi who shouted the price.
"Sister, what do you want this thing for?" Murong Cheng was puzzled, although this thing had some magic, its actual effect was extremely weak, and it did not improve cultivators.
"Hehe, it's fun, try it, with this thing, wouldn't you be able to see wherever you want?" Murong Xijiao smiled.
"Someone has already made a bid, is there anything else you want?" Zheng Manqing's voice echoed in the hall.
However, the people on the field obviously didn't have much interest in this thing, most of the people present were cultivators and businessmen, and they were more focused on practical interests, and this kind of thing would be of some use to those intelligence organizations.
"Eighty thousand gold coins at a time. Zheng Manqing looked at no one on the field to raise the price, his face was slightly disappointed, and he reluctantly began to count down.
"Eighty thousand gold coins twice. ”
"Eighty thousand gold coins three times, sold. The auction hammer fell, and this boundary-breaking bead was auctioned by Murong Xi.
