Chapter 61: The Auction (1)
Lin Qian secretly sighed in his heart, Ye Wudao, as the prince of the Ye family, is in a high position in the Senate, and has monstrous power in his hands, but he can still be so calm and rational, he is not carried away by his noble status, he is not self-inflated because of the power in his hands, and he is still as careful in his words and deeds as he was back then, walking on thin ice.
He can get to his current position, not only by the Ye family, if he doesn't have some ability, how can he sit in this position for a long time?
"It's a shame that when you want to do something, there are always some nasty spoilers."
He said quietly.
There was silence between the two of them, and their eyes looked at the sky in unison.
At this time, the sky had already darkened, and around the beach, except for the occasional glow in the sea, there was no light, and the more the stars above the night dome were extremely clear.
On the beach, in the night dome, among the countless stars, there is an area that is strangely without a star, that area is the outer edge of the galaxy where the Federation is located, if human beings want to cross the galaxy and enter more distant outer space, that road is the best choice, because no matter from any other direction, they will encounter countless stars...... However, it is precisely because that area does not have any signs, and I don't know how many spaceships have swallowed up the Federation for tens of thousands of years, so it is called the Dark Skydome.
"The future of the Federation should be in the starry sky." Lin Qian looked at the star curtain attentively, and after a long time, he said in an extremely serious tone.
"For this purpose, spare no time in this life!"
Ye Wudao also roared in a low voice.
"Encourage you!"
"Encourage each other!"
……
"Hell, why hasn't anyone ever told me before that golden beef is like this with beer?"
At noon, a few people who had come to their senses were eating and drinking around the table, and Su Lin picked up a piece of cod with a fork, covered his head and complained.
Yesterday he didn't drink much, but with something in the beef, it was easy to get a hangover, and he was still a little dizzy.
The table is full of food, avocado squid, grilled cod, chive veal steak, cheese bacon, tuna corn grains, asparagus salad, fruit bowl, the aroma is delicious.
"I've known Lao Lin for so many years, and I've never heard of him cooking, it's weird."
Tang Zheng picked up a piece of chive steak and tasted it carefully, the taste was really good, Zou Zichuan and Gong Fan also nodded again and again.
"Can't you stop your mouths from eating?"
Lin Yue walked over with the last plate of braised lobster and said angrily.
Although he used to be a little unmotivated and extremely resistant to cultivation because of his knots, in order to alleviate his daily boredom, he has been involved in many other fields, not only knows philosophy, wine tasting, and various musical instruments, but also is proficient in mechanical physics, has dabbled in medicine and is proficient in poison, and can also play the voice of different people.
It's really hard for him to cook such a thing.
"Hey, have you heard, tomorrow night NEDU Mansion will hold an auction party in order to eliminate the bad impact of the robbery incident a few days ago, and it is said that there are a lot of good things."
Su Lin killed the last lobster, drank a big bowl of alder beast soup, patted his stomach with satisfaction, and said.
Alder beast is a starry beast, which is difficult to catch, but it is a great tonic for flesh and bones, and after boiling soup and drinking it, it can improve its physique, make it more powerful, and its muscles are tight and strong. It is ten times better than Cordyceps, ginseng and other medicinal herbs on the earth.
"Let's go too, with Lao Lin's relationship, it is estimated that we can get a lot of good things."
"Forget it, there is always a limit to this kind of thing, don't always want to take advantage, rice is a favor, and rice is an enemy."
Zou Zichuan said.
He was born in a commoner, and he can have today's wealth and status, which is completely due to his own hard work in the society little by little, and he has more feelings about the human relations in the society.
Favor debts are the most difficult to repay, and if you always exchange favors for benefits, it is likely to cause the other party's disgust.
"Zichuan is right, this kind of thing is human, or use it at a critical moment, since there is such a thing, then let's go to see and see it at night, as for what you want to shoot, just pay normally, I think you are not short of money."
Lin Yue finalized the matter.
……
"It seems that the NEDU branch was frightened by the robbery a few days ago, and the defense has been strengthened a lot."
The next evening, Surin drove his stretch car to the NEDU Building in the center of the city, carrying Lin Yue and a few others.
The car stopped at the door, and a few people walked down, and found that there were many more guards with strong breaths and indifferent expressions in front of the NEDU building, all with sharp eyes and bulging bags around their waists, as if they were equipped with firearms.
"Blackwater's elite bodyguards, each of them is in the Meteor Realm, it seems that NEDU Group has invested a lot of money this time."
Gong Fan sighed.
"Gentlemen, please show your admission ticket."
As soon as they walked to the gate, Lin Yue and the others were stopped, and the security captain at the gate politely asked them to show their admission tickets.
"Admission ticket? I don't have this," Lin Yue frowned, "But is this okay?" ”
He took out a golden card, which was very different from ordinary cards in terms of appearance. The dark gold card, restrained and very textured, it has been treated with a water-soluble frosting process, and the card itself is not reflective. But compared with the low-key and subtle card body, its structure is quite eye-catching, the bright silver structure is slender and symmetrical, they always give people an illusion, like a liquid on the card surface of the slow flow of feeling, and like the silver blood vessels of the card.
This was given to him by the head of NEDU Earth Administration Company after the fact, with this gold card, he will enjoy the highest-end treatment in any planet of NEDU Company, and everything he buys, regardless of the value of the denomination, will be 70% off the original price!
"Elite Gold ......"
The face of the security captain changed instantly, this kind of gold card is the same as the highest level of platinum diamond card, only the VIP recognized by the NEDU Group can have it, it represents the friendship of the NEDU Group, it is a symbol of status, and it is not something you can have if you have the right to have money.
The entire Xinghua City, and even the entire Northern Province, have no more than one lot of this kind of card!
"Sir, please come in."
He stepped aside and bowed slightly.
"Let's go."
As soon as Lin Yue greeted, several young mermaids rushed in and walked along the aisle.
Led by the waiting maids, they shuttled through the brown-and-yellow corridors, with red carpets on the floor. Pale gold wall lamps hang on the walls on both sides, and every few steps are a pair of wall lamps that emit a bright yellow halo.
There was a faint smell of smoke in the air.
After walking down the aisle, a wide hall came into view of several people.
Dense glass oil lamps hung from the golden ceiling, illuminating the entire venue. Below are rows of bright red chairs. It was already full of many guests who had come to participate in the auction. The venue was also a bit noisy.
Behind the auction table at the front, there is a huge red sign hanging on the wall.
Several people followed the waiter to the side, and after entering through a small door, there was a stairwell, and when you went up the stairs twice, you could see a corridor, and at the end was a room, and a red-clothed maid bowed respectfully to this side at the door.
"This is your place." The waiter smiled.
Entering the room, Lin Yue found that the whole room seemed to be built high on the left side of the auction hall, and one wall was completely transparent, so that the auction below could be clearly seen.
The room has red leather chairs and sofas. A large white blanket on the floor was white and flawless. It's obviously a new product that has just been replaced. On a low table, resembling a coffee table, there is an incense stand with three black incense sticks lit in it. Wisps of green smoke slowly floated out of the scarlet incense and melted into the air.
The cold and desolate aroma filled the entire room, and even Lin Yue's clothes were dyed with this faint, cold but timeless fragrance.
What surprised Lin Yue even more was that this incense actually had the effect of refreshing and refreshing. The so-called refreshment is not refreshing in the conventional sense, but it has really improved his mental power by such a small amount.
Lin Yue looked at the small incense burner, and couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart, the incense that can improve the cultivation of spiritual power, this thing is enough to make all the source ability people in the world go crazy. The spiritual power of the source ability is directly related to their strength, and this incense is really too rebellious.
"It's worthy of the Supreme Gold Card, the location is really good, and this direction is just right to see all of the entire venue." Su Lin sat down on the sofa all of a sudden, and said with a lazy smile.
The maid brought a drink and fruit wine, placed it on the low table, and bowed and withdrew.
Lin Yue picked up the poured fruit wine glass, put it in front of his eyes, and shook it gently.
The turquoise liquor is crystal clear in the glass, and the mellow fruity aroma slowly escapes, and it is the best quality at first glance.
The wine still seems to be warm, it is late autumn, and the temperature is slightly chilly, which is just the right temperature to warm the body.
He walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down on the situation below. He took a gentle sip of fruit wine, and the silky touch almost made him feel the presence of the wine, as if he had only taken a sip of the rich aroma.
An apple-like scent permeated his mouth and nose, and he squinted slightly, enjoying the sensation.
The temperature in the private room was suitable, and he was wearing a little more clothes. He tugged at his neckline, revealing his fair and strong chest, and stared intently at the venue below.
At nearly eight o'clock, some noisy noise was faintly heard below, and the flow of people continued to pour in along the entrance, filling the red seats of the venue. Soon, ten minutes later, five minutes before eight o'clock, all the red seats were filled. The doors of the venue are slowly closing. Two guards in black power armor walked up to the doorway with their weapons on guard.
Walking up from the auction table was an old man with bespectacles, gray hair, beard, and an unusually serious look, and he gently tapped the small hammer in his hand.
"Distinguished guests, the auction will start soon, please be quiet......"
The clock rang eight times, and the time was already eight o'clock, and the auctioneer gently shook a golden bell, and the auction officially began.
