Chapter 20 The Auction Begins
"Hello guests," a crisp voice like a yellow bird was transmitted from the stage to all places through the amplification device, so that people in the cold winter felt a trace of warmth, "First of all, welcome all the guests to come to the Shenzhou auction ranking, we are honored to be very honored for this, and hope that the service we give you and the things that will be auctioned next are in line with your wishes." β
The auctioneer smiled and said, "Okay, I won't continue to talk nonsense, the first thing to auction is a nautical chart." β
At that moment, the pot exploded directly under the stands, and he didn't listen to the auctioneer's follow-up words at all.
"Charts? This thing can also be auctioned?"
"Haha, this auction house is not very good, it is on par with our Shafin auction house," said the person from the rival auction house
"No matter how precise this chart is, under the great changes in heaven and earth, it is not like waste paper?"
There was a lot of discussion in the audience, and they all felt that the grade of this first auction item was too low.
Of course, there are also people who trust the honor of the Shenzhou Auction House and believe that it will not take a random thing out and fool it.
The auctioneer seemed to have a premonition that there would be such a discussion, and immediately explained again: "This chart is not an ordinary chart, it is a chart designated by the Chu family, a giant family adjacent to the East China Sea, who spent a lot of money to invite all kinds of talented people to spend three months to inspect the major islands, and it even depicts the location of the Supplemental Dragon Island! The resources that should exist on the major islands are also marked on them, and the Chu family also promised that the resources on the islands have not been touched by the Chu family, so I don't need to say more about the value of this chart, right?"
There was a gasp from the audience, and everyone present knew that what was most needed since the great world changed was undoubtedly resources! And how could this chart not make people greedy for the fact that it showed all kinds of resources on the islands? Although people can explore the islands one by one, it will take a huge amount of time, and if you hold this map in your hands, you can seize the most valuable resources as quickly as possible.
At the moment, the audience shouted like crazy, and the spectators seemed to be enchanted, and this chart was no longer just a map in their eyes, but an opportunity to step on the pinnacle of this world.
None of the people in the high-altitude building bid for it, not because they didn't think it was worth it, but because they wanted to make a bid for the final price.
The Chu family's move naturally knew their intentions, and the resources on the island were not taken at all, naturally because of the traps and powerful beasts on the island, if they were forcibly captured, they would lose their own strength heavily, and at this time, the hostile family would invade again, and it was not a hypothetical idea that they would be destroyed day and night, so they wanted to choose a family with strong financial resources to form an alliance with them to explore these islands.
It is conceivable that there must be some of the most important marks in this map that are not available, and they should all be in the hands of the Chu family to prevent the family that obtained this map from ally with others.
The shouts from the audience came and went, and the people on the high platform were a little impatient, and immediately said, "One million spirit patterns!"
This sound directly stopped the tens of thousands of people below who were shouting for the price.
"Two million spirit patterns. β
"Two million and a half million spirit patterns, my Feng family also has a strong man in the Four Senses Shackles Realm, and I also ask the head of the Chu family to come forward to talk in detail. β
The people on the high platform are also smart people, and they know that they need to expose some of their background, financial resources are important, but really exploring some big islands definitely requires peak combat power, which will have to be discussed with the people in charge of the Chu family.
At that moment, someone on the auction table said a few words in the auctioneer's ear, the auctioneer nodded, and then smiled at the audience and said, "The auction competition just now is too fierce, and the person who presented this auction item said that he should also ask the person who needs this picture to discuss in the background at that time." The Chu family is deeply sorry for the sudden abandonment of bidding for this auction, and specially entrusted me to say that there will be simple charts to sell at a low price, and I would like to ask you Haihan. β
Everyone suddenly realized that the Chu family just wanted to use the hands of the auction house to make an advertisement, and then it should be time for the major families and the Chu family to show their heritage, and it has nothing to do with themselves and others.
"Hehe, this Chu family is doing really well!" the three penguins laughed together.
"Yes, the islands have already been explored in advance, and it will be good to follow the people who have the charts when the time comes. β
"I didn't expect to get some unexpected gains from the trip to Dragon Island. β
Qi Xuan looked at the three people in front of him, listening to their proud tones as if these things were like things in their pockets, but he was relieved to think of their ability to come and go freely in space.
Immediately, one of the penguins, covered in gray mud, disappeared into the room.
"Are you interested in working with us?" the penguin looked at Qixuan with a wicked smile
"If you're short of people. β
The auction is still in full swing, but it is all a competition between hundreds of spirit patterns, probably because of the paralysis of the first auction of millions of spirit patterns, so that people don't know the purchasing power of spirit patterns.
At this stage, the four chaebols like the imperial capital have been standing in the imperial capital for hundreds of years, and the total number of spirit patterns is only a few hundred million, and the gold and silver they have have already exceeded hundreds of billions!
The rarity of the spirit pattern and the importance of the spirit pattern after the great world change, how can the ratio between the two be a thousand times?
"The next auction is the Starry Sky Grass, which has a little star power, and its specific role is the same as the items auctioned before, and those who need it will understand. The reserve price is 200 spirit patterns, and each price increase shall not be less than ten spirit patterns. The auctioneer was smiling all the time, and with her beautiful face, many lots of lots were sold at a higher price than the original price.
Although the world has changed many times, it has been a very subtle change before, only this time the change is so fast and terrifying that even a powerful chamber of commerce like the Shenzhou Auction House cannot understand the efficacy of all items, and can only say an approximate price, and those who need it and those who understand it will naturally bid.
"Two hundred and five"
"Two hundred and six"
.
.
.
Although the time of the mutation is short, it can't stand the large number of people, and there will always be many people who can understand the usefulness and value of these things.
"One Thousand Spirit Patterns" Qixuan directly increased the price by two hundred Spirit Patterns. "It's the first time I've seen you bid, and you're so generous. "It's for cultivation. Qi Xuan was quite helpless when he talked about this, the first trick in his body was only gathered to one-tenth of the star power, and he was looking forward to what it would look like when this trick was completely filled.
Suddenly, one of the penguins seemed to think of something, stared at Qi Xuan with wide eyes, and said, "How many spirit patterns did you get by sweeping the other three major chaebols?"
"What are you sweeping the other three chaebols? I don't understand what you're talking about" Qi Xuan pretended to be innocent, even if he could guess that the other party knew, but he didn't want to admit it like that.
"Originally, I wanted to take some spirit patterns by looting the major chaebols last night for today's auction, but I didn't expect to be the first to be taken by this kid of you. β
"I still have some spirit patterns, after all, I am also the prince of the imperial capital. If you want to bid for something, I can lend you some. "The excuse is that his identity as a prince has so many spirit patterns, otherwise I don't know how much I will be extorted by them.
A grim gaze from the audience looked at the room where Qi Xuan was, and asked for "two thousand spirit patterns" on the spot. β
The person who asked for the price was Lin Xun's younger brother Lin Ye, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: It's just a prince who is not powerful, where did you get the financial resources to bid with me! Finally, I waited for what you asked for! Although you helped me destroy my unsuccessful brother and made me hope to be the head of the family, but the face of the Lin family cannot be lost so easily!
Although I don't know what the effect of this thing is, as long as it makes Qi Xuan feel uncomfortable, two thousand spirit patterns are nothing to him, the son of the Lin family!
"Yo, it seems that this person is hostile to you. β
This scene on Lin Xun's face naturally couldn't hide Qi Xuan and the others, who had a strong divine sense.
"It's just a clown. β
"Ten Thousand Spiritual Patterns"
"Ten Thousand and One"
The second voice called the price very quickly, and each time the price was raised, it only added ten spirit patterns so that everyone present knew that this person came out just to disgust the person on the high platform
"Fifteen thousand"
"Fifteen Thousand and One"
γγγ
"One Million Spirit Patterns"
"One Hundred and One Thousand"
I heard that Qixuan was not continuing to follow up on the price
"Hmph, little sample, I'm just going to disgust you. Lin Xun looked like a villain.
The people in the audience erupted into a sigh after a burst of distraction.
Qi Xuan in the room stopped asking for the price, and the penguin understood in seconds, "Haha, you are really cheap, suddenly raising the price caught the person who tried to disgust you off guard, millions of spirit patterns, buy those ten starry sky grass." β
Qi Xuan shook his head, "These ten starry sky grasses can only speed up my exercises for three or four days, a million spirit patterns are not worth it, just ask the people in the auction house about the origin of this grass later." β
Just now, Qi Xuan had already leaned out of his divine sense and observed the star power contained in the Starry Sky Grass, and a million spirit patterns might as well improve his spiritual power cultivation by a few levels.
If it weren't for the fear of improving too quickly and making his foundation unstable, with this million spirit pattern Qixuan, he could completely impact the peak of the spirit gathering!
Lin Xun was very proud in the audience, unaware that the price he shouted had already broken the sky.
"The first time, the second time, the third time, okay, congratulations to this son for winning ten starry sky grasses for one million and one. β
"Heh," Lin Xun, who heard this, turned around and arrogantly curled his left lip slightly, only to see that the eyes of a group of viewers behind him were all focused on him.
"Whew. "This feeling of being in the spotlight is just a financial win over a powerless prince, don't you look at me so excitedly.
Suddenly, Lin Xun felt that there was something wrong with this gaze, some people's eyes seemed to be looking at fools, Lin Ye suddenly remembered the last sentence that the auctioneer said, "one hundred and ten thousand"
οΌοΌ
Shouldn't it be twenty thousand?
At this time, Lin Ye's eyes were full of anger when he looked at the room where Qi Xuan was, and he wanted to kill him quickly.
The head of the Lin family immediately contacted Lin Ye and asked him if he really knew the role of the starry sky grass, Lin Ye told him the truth, Lin Zhan was furious, and immediately carried Lin Ye to the back of the auctionγ
After Lin Zhan met with Steward Su, he first apologized for this matter, saying that the value of this item was not worth such a high price, and then politely said that Lin Ye would still buy the things in the auction.
Su Bo is also an old man, so he naturally understands the deep meaning hidden in his words, and immediately said that he would explain the situation to the seller, Su Lao pondered for a moment and then said, "But the prince of Qixuan originally wanted to buy this thing, but he was disturbed by the noble prince, I am afraid that this will make the emperor of the current dynasty have some opinions on our Shenzhou auction house" looked at Lin Zhan's eyes full of deep meaning.
Lin Zhan arched his hand and smiled: "This will naturally not make it difficult for the Great Steward Su, we should buy the Starry Sky Grass with the number of spirit patterns requested by the seller, and then present it to the Prince of Qixuan." β
Su Lao nodded, "This is naturally the best, I'll contact the seller now." β
After a while, Su Lao returned to the back of the auction, and Lin Ye immediately stepped forward and asked, "Su Lao, what did the seller say?" Lin Zhan glanced at Lin Ye, this unassuming son! Although a million spirit patterns are a huge amount of money, there is no need to show such a look, the old man is just not here to let this huge amount of money go to waste.
Now what Lin Zhan wants to do is to get all the financial resources to get an item in the auction, this million is not a small amount, otherwise he would not have come here to say this cheekily.
Hey, if it weren't for the thieves who stole it last night, what would this million spirit pattern be in terms of the Lin family's reputation?
Su Lao smiled, "The seller also knows that this is an accident, and says that he can accept the final transaction price of 20,000 yuan, but he must pay it now." β
Although Lin Zhan looked down on his son's eagerness, he didn't have such a thought in his heart, and when he heard Su Lao say this, the big stone in his heart was also put down, and he immediately paid 20,000 spirit patterns, and then said, "I also trouble the great housekeeper Su to deliver the starry sky grass to Prince Qixuan, and express Lin Ye's apologies to him to him." β
Then Su Lao instructed his subordinates: "When the auction is over, spread the news immediately!"
Su Lao looked at the ceiling: With the crowds of people around him constantly flocking to the imperial capital, the current imperial capital can be described as a turbulent dark tide, whether Yandu rises or destroys in an instant, my actions should be regarded as goodwill to Yandu. Qi Xuan, don't let down the young master's expectations for you!
