Chapter 520: We Are VIPs [July 520]
The next morning, the morning glow was shining.
As soon as the sky was bright, Chu Bei and his party of four got up, after all, today was the day when the Tianxing Auction House held a grand auction.
Out of the Tianxing Restaurant, along Xinghai Street to the east, about half an hour later, Chu Bei and his party of four came to the front of the Tianxing Auction House.
At this moment, outside the Tianxing auction hall, there was a sea of people, boiling.
"It's really not ordinary!"
Chu Bei sighed for a while, the reason why the door was crowded with people was not because of the low entry requirements of the Tianxing Auction House, on the contrary, the requirements were extremely high.
Ninety percent of these people did not come to the auction, but wanted to find the best place in the lobby of the Star Auction House to auction their treasured elixirs or treasures in the hope of selling them for a good price.
Because only on this day, all the auction rooms in the Star Auction House will hold auctions at the same time. Therefore, on this day, not only the powerful nobles in the imperial city will participate in the auction, but even the forces in some surrounding cities and even the forces lurking at home and abroad will send people to come.
Even though the Star Auction House is large, it still can't satisfy everyone.
Therefore, this auction can only increase the entry requirements.
In the auction hall, there are ten auction rooms, large and small, and the entry requirements for each auction room are also different, with the lowest requirements for the No. 10 auction room and the highest requirements for the Supreme auction room.
Those who can enter the Supreme Auction Room must be highly recognized by the auction house.
Since the vast majority of people are turned away from the ten auction rooms, on this day, the lobby of the Star Auction House is vacated as a self-trade exchange area, and everyone can trade freely in the lobby.
That way, those who didn't make it to the auction room wouldn't complain. Because what they want, they can exchange it in this self-trade zone.
In the self-trade zone, whether it is a clan or a small family or an individual, as long as there is a treasure, it can be freely sold, and it can also be set freely, and the Tianxing Auction House will not take a cut of it, nor will it interfere with their transactions.
As time passed, and everyone was looking forward to it, a loud bell finally rang, and then the door of the Tianxing Auction House creaked open.
Outside the door, the monks who couldn't wait for a long time flocked into the Tianxing Auction Hall, and the guards on both sides of the gate could only smile helplessly when they looked at this group of people.
In the blink of an eye, the monks outside the door were seven or eight out of ten, and Chu Bei couldn't help but marvel at their speed.
"Boss, let's go in too!" Bing Tongtong tugged at the corner of Chu Bei's clothes.
When the group of four of them entered the lobby, Hao Ran found that the monks who had swarmed in earlier had already grabbed their own stalls, and each booth was placed with more or less strange treasures.
Faced with a wide variety of treasures, Bing Tongtong's eyes lit up, and he seemed to be eager to encapsulate all these treasures in his arms.
Chu Bei only glanced at it a few times, after all, the purpose of his trip was at the back of the lobby, and he was here to participate in the Tianxing auction.
As for the free trading area here, when the auction is over, it's not too late to go on a treasure hunt.
Walking through the noisy and lively lobby, soon, the four of Chu Bei came to a long corridor.
As far as the eye can see, there is a solid gold sign at the end of the corridor.
At present, there are already many people in the corridor, one by one, wearing gorgeous brocade robes, walking together in twos and threes, talking and laughing.
"Boss, you see that's where the auction room is located!" Bing Tongtong exclaimed, pointing in the direction of the pure gold sign.
Chu Bei nodded and continued to go deeper in the direction indicated by the sign.
A moment later, a magnificent entrance appeared in sight, and the iron gate was now completely open, with four guards standing on each side of the gate.
"It's a bit interesting, the cultivation is actually at the peak of the Spirit Master Realm. ”
When Chu Bei approached the gate, he was slightly startled when he felt the breath released by the eight guards.
"Boss Chu, although we know it's you, we still have to follow the rules. A guard stretched out his hand to stop the four people in Chubei, and was very polite: "Please show your cards." ”
Today, anyone who wants to enter the auction room has to show the special crystal cards made by the Tianxing Auction House, which are not only a symbol of status but also a proof of access.
The Star Auction House will give different crystal cards according to the past auction records of old customers, and those who come to the Star Auction House for the first time need to prove their financial resources to the Star Auction House in order to obtain the corresponding crystal cards to enter the auction room.
"Boss Chu, if you haven't had time to apply for a crystal card, how about joining us?"
Huo Ran, a familiar voice sounded, and three people came not far away.
"Boss, it's them!" Bing Tongtong was slightly surprised.
The people who came were Hong Jiu, the first general of the Heavenly Star Kingdom, the royal princess Long Shuangxue, and Hexiang.
"Boss Chu, are you here for the Five Fire Diagram?"
Hong Jiu first took out a green card from his arms and shook it in front of the previous guard, and then looked at Chu Bei with a smile.
"Came for the Soul Condensing Pill. Chu Bei shook his head and truthfully stated the purpose of his trip.
"Soul Condensing Pill, it's a good thing we're not interested in it, otherwise it would be a bit tricky. ”
Hong Jiu smiled, and then pointed to the inside of the gate: "I wonder if you are willing to join us?"
"There are a lot of us, so I won't bother you. ”
Chu Beibao smiled and took out a purple card from the Sumeru bag.
This purple card was given to him by the deacon of the auction house on the day they first came to the Imperial City.
"Purple... It turned out to be a purple card!"
Seeing the card that Chu Bei took out, Hong Jiu's mouth opened slightly, with a little shock on his face.
"I didn't expect this Tianxing Auction House to regard you as more noble than our royal family!" He Xiang was speechless, his eyes stared at the purple card in Chu Bei's hand, swallowed his saliva, and couldn't help but speak.
As for the several guards at the entrance, the first time Chu Bei took out the purple card, their faces were stunned, and after being surprised, their expressions became more respectful.
"Boss, let's get inside!"
Bing Tongtong spoke, and when the words fell, he took the lead and walked forward.
However, she hadn't taken a few steps before she was stopped again by a guard.
"Can't we go in?" Bing Tongtong frowned.
When the guard heard this, he seemed afraid of being misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "Little girl, it's not what you think. Since you are holding a purple plaque, as the most honored guest of the auction house, you will be received by a specific maid. ”
After explaining, the guard respectfully made a gesture of please, signaling Chu Bei and his group of four to follow behind him.
"Uncle Hong, let's keep up!"
Looking at the backs of the four people in Chubei who were gradually moving away, Long Shuangxue glanced at Hong Jiu beside him.
