"But what if people don't like it?" the attendant advised, "Speaking of treasures, there are many in the royal treasury, and you can ask Her Royal Highness who loves you to give you a few." ”

The second prince's face darkened, the treasure house had already been tossed by his mother and was about to be empty, and the money for today's purchases, he said that he was going to move the treasury, but he was actually going to ask his uncle in private, he was not stupid, and he would not let the attendants understand the state of the treasury.

"It's all to blame on the damned Duke of the Four Realms, if I were to become a king, the first thing I would do would be to kill them all and rob their coffers. The second prince was furious.

The four dukes control the four realms and nominally obey the king, but as the king is old and mediocre, they find all kinds of excuses, and they haven't been to the royal capital for nearly ten years, and as for the annual taxes paid are getting less and less, the second prince feels that once he takes the throne, they are estimated to rebel.

"Shhhhh The attendants were startled, and there were many people, and if they were heard, they would die.

"What are you afraid of? The sky is falling, and I am on top of it. The second prince roared, and then saw the guard knock on the door and walk in.

"Your Highness, I have found out that the guest of honor in Box 9 is the golden-robed chief priest Andrea. ”

"Blame you have to give me face, it turned out to be that big-breasted royal sister!" The second prince was angry, and when he thought of the female priest's papaya giant ~ breasts, he felt impulsive, "Forget it, don't fight, go tell her that this time I will quit the bidding for her sake." ”

"Damn, it's another woman who can only look at but can't eat. "The second prince had fought Andrea's idea before, but he was cleaned up very badly, and later learned that people not only have strong and noble status, but also have a hard and terrible backstage.

One of the five wealthy nobles of the Saint Laurent Empire, Liliang who can be mobilized in time of war is not much weaker than Frankfurt.

Downton was ready for massive bleeding. I didn't expect to take more than 50 million directly, and I was a little stunned.

"I'm Emperor Polo, what do you mean by that, Second Prince?"

Not only Falfer, but the other dignitaries were also depressed, they had already inquired about who had entered Box No. 1, and knew that the prince would withdraw. They will definitely continue to bid.

More than 50 million to buy a soul diamond is a bit of a loss at the current market price, but if you meet someone who needs it, you can definitely sell it at a high price, because there are very few things circulating in the market.

The VIPs didn't know that Downton was the one who needed it just right, and it was not a loss to him at all, and the sooner he got the guardian beast for Elaine, her strength would be improved.

After listening to the words of the squire. Watching him withdraw and close the door, Abagun was shocked, "We were actually bidding with a prince just now?"

It is normal for the green-skinned goblin to have this kind of expression, after all, he has lived in Frankfurt for more than ten years, not to mention the prince, even a baron is also a high-ranking existence for civilians.

You must know that a mayor of a town can easily ruin the former Downton family, let alone His Royal Highness the Prince.

"A prince of a third-rate country. If it were the princes of the Sheman Empire and the Rhine Empire, I would still look down on them. Andrea was rather dismissive. Status determines vision and attitude, and there is really no need for him to whisper to please the second prince.

The whole of Frankfurt made the female priest awe, and there was only one king Bixia.

"Next up is the Zuihou auction today. ”

The female auctioneer didn't wait for the hot atmosphere to subside, and directly threw out the topic of weight.

The interest of the guests was really aroused, and even the rare and precious soul diamonds could not be the finale, and Zuihou's goods were certainly extraordinary.

"This is a potion recipe that an adventuring team found in an ancient ruin. Seven pages in total, pretty well preserved!"

As the auctioneer introduced, seven pieces of parchment were projected on a wide screen, showing all directions, six of which were covered by a gauzy demonic cloth. You can only see the header and footer with no text, but there is one more page that you can see in their entirety.

The purpose of this one is for the potions masters to identify and judge the value of the recipe based on it, and if you want to read it all, you can only buy it home.

With a bang, all the pharmacists present stood up, and although the magic projection made every detail and text on the paper clearly visible to everyone, they still left their seats, wanting to move forward.

Downton and Charlotte were no exception, and as potions masters, this unknown recipe from ancient ruins had a natural appeal to them.

"Mondalcino is stingy. Joaquín took out a monocle and put it on his eyes, and teased the merchant group as he studied the equation on the formula.

Generally speaking, the more paper that records the formula, the higher the potion, and the more complex the configuration process, the more precious it is.

Of course, the premise is that you don't show the main equation and the key steps to the family.

"We have done an investigation, and although the signature on the formula is not recorded in the Great Potions Hall of Fame, based on the number of papers and the identification results of the single sheet, it can be concluded that it is a formula that is at least 5,000 years old, and is worth at least 10 million gold coins. ”

The female auctioneer continued to introduce that she naturally only picks good words, but only the nobles who don't understand potions believe and are curious, and the potions masters will judge by their own eyesight and experience.

At first there was a whisper, then it turned into a noise, and then there was a loud argument.

"What's that hall of honor? Sounds so high-end?" asked Hu Tao as she ate her pastry, she had never been interested in these esoteric knowledge.

"Every Potions Master in history who has achieved something, their name will be recorded on it. Xia Luo explained casually.

"Homer, what do you think?"

Downton even took out the Hubble telescope, turned the multiplier to the maximum, and observed the text on it.

"You're a potions master, I'd like to hear your opinion!"

Homer asked rhetorically.

"How's it going, is it worth it?" Hu Tao always looked in a different direction.

"It should be valuable, I don't know some of the equations above, but it shouldn't affect the judgment. Downton explained, "The science of potions is constantly advancing and improving, and from one period to another, the steps at which the equations are written and the format of the recipes are different, and according to this they can be determined." ”

"Yes, go on!" Homer nodded, he didn't expect Downton, a beginner, to verify the value of the recipe in this way.

"It's all parchment, but the process of making paper is different in each era. ”

"Well, you can identify it with magic, but you can only prove its age, not its own value. Andrea questioned.

"The words on the recipe, the writing habits, and the patterns on the parchment paper can almost determine the nationality of the maker, and then if you compare the recipes of the same period, you may find the same maker. Downton pondered, "The archives of the Nine Great Empires are not comparable to Frankfurt. ”

Because of the influence of culture, customs, etc., the appearance of objects in each country is different, even parchment is no exception, like some religious fanatical countries, the paper will be engraved with the proverbs of the gods of faith.

Charlotte applauded, most potions masters verify whether the formula is valuable, relying on the amount of paper and the complexity of the equation, like Downton's alternative method, some great potions masters understand, but people are intuition and vision cultivated by years or even decades of accumulated experience.

"He may have been a natural potions master. "Charlotte hasn't forgotten that Downton has been in contact with Potions for less than half a year, but his talent and inspiration in this area have already exploded many Potions masters.

"What if I can't find it?" the priestess teased.

Downton smiled, there is Homer, who is known as the encyclopedia, as long as there is a clue, what can't be found?

"I've seen that signature, it belongs to a grandmaster-level potions master, he died 20,000 years ago in a wide-ranging plane war, so there are no books to preserve his name. "Homer's Great Library contains so many things that it can be said to be a living history of the Western Continent.

"What kind of potion does this recipe contain?" Downton asked, "is it in the Great Library?"

"I'm looking at his life, and his greatest invention is a transformation potion, and if nothing else, it should be it. Homer calculated, "According to the evaluation of the five most authoritative institutions at the time, it was worth about two billion gold marks!"

"So much?" Downton gasped, and understood Homer's reasoning for this inference, because the paper had been carefully preserved so intact that if it weren't important in itself, what had been twenty thousand years old would have rotted long ago.

That grandmaster also wants to pass on his life's work!

"The reserve price is 10 million, and the price increase is not less than 1 million gold coins each time!"

The women's auction announced the start of bidding, and at this time, it is all about vision and knowledge reserves, as well as the courage to have no venture capital!

The bidding wasn't fierce, but it was steadily climbing, and the potions men were racking their brains for any clues to where it came from.

"Can I use this recipe when I buy it?" Elaine always felt that the security measures in the auction hall were too simple, "What if someone peeks at it?"

"According to the rules of not becoming, in fact, there is one more complete set of formulas than the one on display here, and after the deal is concluded, we will get it directly from the seller. Xia Luo gave everyone common sense.

"Wait, the seller must know the recipe, right? What if I record it and sell it to someone else?"

"The credibility of the Mondalcino Merchant Order is still guaranteed, and within twenty years, if this recipe circulates in the market, the auctioneer will have to pay a huge amount of compensation and face the hunt of the Assassin's Creed hired by the Merchant Group. Andrea took a sip of black tea, "Of course, the merchant group must also ensure the safety of the auctioneer's life and not be killed by the buyer. (To be continued......)
