Chapter 25: Snow Broken Soul (Thanks to Lan Qi'er 885588 and Crab Slow Crawl for their recommendation and support!) )
At this time, two strong men walked up slowly carrying a huge sunken wooden box and put the box down.
Boom!
Wang Xu raised his eyebrows, the place where he was sitting was at least ten meters away from the stands, and he could feel the vibration, no matter what was in this box, the weight was not small anyway.
The auctioneer, dressed in a black dress, pointed to the box under his feet and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the routine of our auction house.
I don't know what's in this box, it's up to your luck.
The first item, Dark Shot! Starting at 500 taels!! ”
Laugh at!
An obvious sneer came from not far away, "I don't know anything, you dare to ask for five hundred taels, it's crazy." ”
The auctioneer was not angry, and still said with a smile: "If this guest officer doesn't dare to auction, don't force it."
Then I count to five, and if no one shoots, I change it to a famous shot.
Five...... Four...... Three!
Good! Customer No. 3 bids 500 taels! There are no more bids?! ”
"Humph! Only a fool would fall for such an obvious trick. The first person to speak up just now mocked again.
"Cowardice with no money, Young Master Ben is rich, you can shoot it if you have the ability, you don't have money to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf, you are a."
When No. 3 heard this, he immediately scolded back.
Bazi is a dialect here in Jinbian, referring to a kind of beast. It grows extremely vicious, haunts the twilight and frightens passers-by, but it is extremely timid inside, and if anyone dares to scream loudly, it will be frightened and run away.
"You! Good! Balls! ”
The first to speak up was furious.
"Anyone else?"
The auctioneer made a round to see that no one was bidding anymore, "Good! Congratulations to Customer No. 3 for his insight! Five hundred taels photographed a flawless bright stone! ”
He opened the wooden box directly, only to see a burst of strong light flashing, illuminating the entire hall up and down.
Wang Xu looked at the bright stone on the stage with a different face.
The auctioneer held a piece of paper in his hand and read: "Mingguang Stone, which can absorb sunlight, and at night it emits white light, like white sun, and a small piece of Mingguang Stone is worth a hundred taels."
The price of this bright stone under my feet is at least five thousand taels!! ”
There was an uproar in the audience, and Wang Xu looked surprised, "Your Chamber of Commerce is so generous?!" ”
The rich and wealthy boy was also dumbfounded, "I, I, I don't know!" ”
As he spoke, he patted his face with his hand, and said bitterly: "I, I, why don't I take a picture?!" ”
Just when everyone in the audience was angry and depressed, a man in black walked up to the stage, whispered a few words to the auctioneer, and then walked down.
"Ahem, ahem!"
The auctioneer cleared his throat and shouted loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I received news just now that we are willing to turn several of today's auction items into secret auctions, only talking about the category of goods, and the rest is all free!" ”
"Hmph, hmph, you're playing tricks! Let's make a profit first, and then let's lose it all! ”
The familiar voice sounded again.
"This customer, it's all about freedom, if you want to shoot, it doesn't matter if you don't!"
The auctioneer took a brocade box, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is a book, starting at seven hundred taels." As he spoke, he put down a small hourglass beside him, "Stop here, please take it." ”
After he finished speaking, he made a look around and moved out of the way.
Wang Xu's heart moved, just now he felt that the auctioneer was looking at him.
"Brother Xu."
The horse next to him came over and nodded at him.
Wang Xu nodded silently, indicating that he understood.
Time passed little by little, and the hourglass was about to run out.
"Seven hundred taels!"
A hoarse voice rang out.
"Good! Customer No. 5 gives 700 taels!
The time is coming soon, are there any bids left?
Time...... Customer No. 2 bids 1,000 taels! ”
This is the hourglass has also been dripped out.
The auctioneer re-entered the stage, "Now only customers No. 2 and No. 5 have the right to auction, and two people start bidding, until the third counts!"
Attention to customer number five!
Three...... Two...... One thousand one hundred taels! Customer No. 5 bids 1,100 taels!
No. 2 ...... Customer No. 2 bids 2,000 taels!!
Is there anything higher?! Anything else?! Three...... Two...... One, congratulations to customer No. 2 for taking this secret shot! ”
The auctioneer took a sip and raised his hand.
A man in black immediately came up to take his things down.
"Wait! Does this seem like a rule? ”
A voice rang out, "You have to tell us what this brochure is, what do you say?" ”
"That's it!"
The voice that sounded for the first time began to mock again, "Is it another black-box operation?" ”
The auctioneer didn't smile, "Okay! Good! The second customer took a picture of an internal work, and we estimated it at 2,000 taels. ”
"Internal strength?! Who are you fooling, it's no wonder that you can't have tens of thousands of taels of internal merit, two thousand taels, what are you kidding? ”
The person who spoke out seemed to have a grudge against the auction, and he repeatedly picked on the thorns.
"It's a remnant." The auctioneer didn't bother to explain, so he directly asked people to take down the box and take out the third hidden auction item.
Wang Xu and Ju Caifu glanced at each other, "You Chamber of Commerce has a rivalry in Jinbian?" ”
He was visibly relaxed after getting what he wanted.
"Nope." Ju Caifu was also at a loss.
Wang Xu's face suddenly changed, he had already held the horizontal knife in his hand, and he was about to swing the knife.
"Young Master Ju."
Behind them came a black-clad figure, who seemed to know Ju Caifu, came over and whispered a few words to him, and then left, completely unaware that he had just walked around the ghost gate.
Wang Xu silently closed the knife, "What's wrong?" ”
"People from the Liu family."
Ju Caifu leaned over and said solemnly.
"The Liu family!"
Wang Xu sneered, "They even dare to come to Jinbian?!" ”
He touched the knife in his hand, feeling the texture on the hilt, "It seems that your chamber of commerce is ready." ”
Wang Xu knows that in a place like the Northland Chamber of Commerce, even if someone deliberately makes trouble, they will never leak the customer's information, which is a big taboo in the industry, but it must be a big move to say it blatantly like this.
"The Liu family has gone too far." Ju Caifu's eyes also flashed with a cold light, "They are for an evil soldier." ”
"Evil soldiers?"
After Wang Xu heard this, he was a little curious, "What kind of evil law?" ”
"I don't know, I heard that it's quite evil."
Ju Caifu shook his head, "It's not been a day or two that the Liu family wants this. It seems that someone was sent to intercept and kill on the road before, which is too much, and our Chamber of Commerce is not a mermaid. ”
Wang Xu silently closed his eyes and adjusted his state. It's a great time to look forward to tonight.
"Famous ......"
He sneered inwardly.
"Brother Xu, it's almost here."
Wang Xu opened his eyes.
At this time, it was already the fifth lot on the stage.
The whole venue has become more and more lively, and the auction has entered a climax.
The auctioneer, dressed in a gown, was moving away from a rectangular black wooden box and pointing, "Do you know what's in here?"
That's right, it's the divine soldier that the famous Xue Zhongtian in the North held before he died!
Famous knife, snow, broken, soul! ”
