Section 33 Ten Old Men
Three days later, Su Chong finally waited for the auction to begin.
As a gathering of gang-related organizations, the Youkexin auction naturally cannot only have one day. In fact, the annual auction lasts for a whole month, from start to finish.
Large-scale auctions exclusive to organized crime organizations in various localities will also be held for half a month.
In the previous auctions, there were no items that Su Zhong wanted. Su Chong was not interested in participating at all.
As soon as they walked into the venue, all the participating members were dressed in formal attire. The men wore suits and leather shoes, and the women also wore banquet dresses. I don't know, I thought this was a gathering of nobles. Only Su Chong, a casual sportswear, is extremely eye-catching.
Ignoring the banter, inquiry, and indifferent eyes around him, Su Chongshi came to his seat. Close your eyes and wait quietly for the auction to begin.
He didn't have the slightest conversation, don't look at the people who were dressed like dogs, in fact, most of the people present were cruel and ruthless. Su Chong didn't have that interest in making friends. Instead of wasting time, it's better to spend some time thinking about mental development.
"Everyone is welcome to participate in this auction, and the boring opening remarks will be omitted, and we will look at our first lot. From mysterious ruins, magical puppets. The auctioneer's face was expressionless, and he pulled back the red cloth behind him without enthusiasm at all.
A metal-like mechanical golem appears in front of them. The auctioneer briefly explained the role of the puppeteer, and then began to bid for it.
Prices soared rapidly, and the shouts were almost continuous, one after another. Soon a peak was reached. The auctioneer did not hesitate, did not incite emotions to increase the price at all, and directly made the final decision.
The whole process is clean and full of roughness. Su Zhong sighed when he saw it, it really deserved to be a black-related auction, it was so rough. If you have money, you can buy it, and if you don't have money, don't open your mouth. The auctioneer also simply ends the auction as long as no one increases the price.
The whole auction was very fast, and it didn't take long to get the unit that Su Zhong wanted.
"The next auction item, the gravity adjustment device in the mysterious ruins, can change the gravity within a radius of ten meters. It can increase gravity by five times and reduce gravity by five times. The reserve price is 5.2 billion rings, and the auction is now open. ”
"6o Ring!"
"7o Ring!"
"7.5 billion ......"
Su Chong's face was ugly, this price had increased too quickly. Before he started bidding, everyone around him was bidding in unison.
"1oo billion rings!" Su Zhong directly raised the price to 1oo billion.
The auction room was silent, and they all turned their heads to look at Su Chong, with strange eyes.
"1o500 million rings!" A voice quickly broke the silence, glanced at Su Chong defiantly, and directly added 500 million rings.
"1.2o billion." Su Zhong narrowed his eyes, he instinctively felt that something was wrong, and directly added 1.5 billion.
"12.5 billion." In another corner, a big fat man squinted at Su Zhong and added 500 million again. Then the scene fell silent again, as if waiting for Su Zhong to increase the price.
Su Zhong tentatively added 500 million and shouted 1.3o billion. As soon as his voice fell, one person immediately added 500 million. By now, if he still doesn't see that there is a problem, he is a fool!
I was targeted! These gangsters are all targeting themselves? That's not right!
"15.3 billion!" Su Zhong directly reported all the money on his body, then closed his eyes and waited quietly for the result. If someone still raises the price, he just gives it up.
"I can't buy it, can't I grab it?" The air around Su Chong's body suddenly became cold.
As if agreed, after Su Zhong shouted the price for the last time, the scene quieted down again.
The staff in charge of the auction rarely did not drop the hammer quickly, but waited for more than ten seconds, and saw that no one really shouted the price again, so they gently knocked the hammer.
"The gravity device belongs to this gentleman, please pay the auction amount in time after the auction is over. Passing midnight tonight will be considered an automatic abandonment. The entrance fee is non-refundable and you will be permanently disqualified from participating in the auction. The auctioneer formulaicly said, and then the next auction began.
Su Chong sat in place and closed his eyes to recuperate, keenly feeling a few faint lines of sight.
In the past year, I have only been to the Sky Arena Tower once, and the rest of the time I stay at home. Why did you just come out and arouse the hostility of others? Or so many gang-related organizations are hostile together.
The only one who can mobilize so much energy is the auction organizer, the leader of the world's gang-related organizations, and the ten old men!
Is it for beating the enemy? Su Chong sat quietly in place, without the slightest anxiety. Let's see who is behind it.
……
"Is that the guy?" In the gloomy room, ten figures sat around a round table. The expression on the face can be hideous or calm or smiling. The surrounding optical fiber is dim, and through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, you can overlook the glorious lights of the entire Youkexin.
This is the top floor of the highest building in Youkexin, the most heavily protected building in Youkexin, the gathering place of the ten old men, and the gathering center of the highest power of the entire world's gang-related organizations.
"It shouldn't be wrong, we can't find out the identity of the other party. There are very few people in the whole world who can hide their identity information so well. Coming here at this time, and targeting gravity equipment, it can only be a guy from the Kajin Empire. An old white man who looked like a nobleman said calmly.
"Hey! The bullshit Kajin Empire is nothing but a tyrant! You still want to order us? Don't you want a gravity device, you can, go to the auction house and buy it for several times the amount of money! The tyrannical guy said coldly.
"Will it cause a strong backlash?"
"Are we afraid? We can't show the slightest timidity in our profession. Not only should you not be afraid, but you must also respond strongly. ”
"Let the Yin Beast dispatch. Didn't they ask for a gravity device, just grab it back and sell it to them. We didn't know who auctioned it off, and we helped them get it back. They should thank us. ”
"Haha! That's a good idea! If the Kajin Empire wants it, we will sell it to them. It's just that they have to pay double money. Hey...... Ha ha! ”
There was a burst of icy laughter in the room.
……
Su Chong held a box in one hand and intercepted a car casually. He dragged the driver down, threw in enough money to buy two cars, got into the driver's seat and drove away. He didn't go back to the hotel either, and went straight to the airship docking site on the outskirts.
Open the box in the passenger seat, revealing what's inside. The gravity device itself wasn't large, just a fist-sized metal ball with a silvery-white sheen.
Just by looking at the past, you can see the intricate structure inside through the hollowed out shell. All kinds of tiny precision gear elements are intertwined and intertwined, constantly doing regular and mysterious movements. Just staring at it for a while makes people dizzy.
The mechanical little ability is a hand-wielding effect, and in the eyes of others, the mechanism is complicated, but Su Chong sees a little way. Thinking that he could thoroughly research the gravity equipment, Su Zhong couldn't wait to immediately smash the ball open and start researching.
Unfortunately, now is not the time.
Glancing in the rearview mirror, several cars were followed from the moment he started moving the car. It's just him, just far behind. And, there are more and more of them!
Su Chong's eyes narrowed, and a cold light flashed. Deliberately raised the price, let me spend all my savings, and dared to track it with such fanfare?
Very good! Su Chong's eyes were murderous, and they overflowed uncontrollably.
