Chapter 17 Gambling Goods

"This bronze hilt originally belonged to the supreme grade weapon, but because of its master a hundred years ago, it faced off with its old enemy to the death. The blade was shattered, and although its lord was victorious, he also died of serious injuries. left a lot of family property, but after his death, it was lost by those indisputable children and grandchildren. Deputy Director Liu slowly said a secret.

After listening to Deputy Director Liu's introduction, some people were speechless for a while, and many people felt indignant, and the descendants of the descendants were not angry, and the family property was lost, so that in the end, even the hilt of the sword, which symbolized the most cherished thing of the ancestors, was sold.

However, according to the descendants of the strong man, he still held the hilt of the sword tightly before he died, as if he was still a little unwilling. even told his descendants not to sell this thing, but his unfilial descendants still sold this thing. Coincidentally, it happened to be acquired by our Amber Chamber of Commerce, maybe this sword hilt will be of good use. In the end, Deputy Director Liu obviously had uncertainty in his tone.

Everyone present couldn't help frowning and thinking that this item was purely a gambling luck item with unknown purpose. Occasionally, gambling items resembling bronze sword hilts are sold in auction houses, and their purpose cannot be identified. And the price is not high, good luck is an opportunity, of course, the probability of bad luck can basically account for nine out of nine.

"Bronze hilt, starting price of 1,000 gold coins. Each increase is not less than 100 gold coins. Deputy Director Liu raised his hand, holding the auction hammer, and looked like he was waiting to shout.

Everyone in the audience was stunned, not because the price of the bronze hilt was too high, but because it was a bit too low, and the lowest price of the lot in the general inferior auction house was only 5,000 gold coins, and the starting price of 10,000 gold coins was even more common.

If the gambling fortune is priced at 5,000 gold coins, then naturally there will not be too many people hesitating, after all, 5,000 gold coins is neither too much nor too little. Buying only a sword hilt that looks like an ornament, rather than a blade that may be processed and used, is still expensive after 5,000 gold coins, and there may be no bidders.

However, the starting price of the 1,000 gold coins quoted by Vice Chairman Liu is different, and many people here can give it a try, because whoever can come to the auction does not bring 20,000 or 30,000 gold coins with him, it is a stroke of luck after all. As long as you have this kind of thinking a lot, the price will definitely rise, and it is possible to sell it for more than 5,000 gold coins at that time.

So everyone present fell silent, and no one thought of shouting for a price. Because everyone knows that if anyone shouts the price, it will be out of control, and in the end, if it is a high price, it is no secret to smash the bronze sword hilt in his hand, who can accept such a result. And even if there is a secret, even the appraiser of the Amber Imperial Chamber of Commerce can't see through it, can he see it?

"Don't you want to buy that completely useless rag, do you!?" Su Yuyan's eyes widened, and she looked incredulous.

Qin Tianyuan seemed to be deaf to it, his eyes stared straight at the bronze sword hilt, and his breathing couldn't help but become short, for no reason, his words made him look at this bronze sword hilt cautiously, and he had already made up his mind to get this thing.

"I'll tell you the truth! This thing can't be sold at all in a medium auction house, let some senior appraisers in the auction house. I couldn't find out where its value was, and it was directly judged to be an ordinary supreme weapon remnant, deliberately mixed with many useful things this time, in order to sell it back. Seeing that Qin Tianyuan looked like he was bound to win, Su Yuyan couldn't help but be a little annoyed.

"I'll pay for it myself, so you don't have to worry about it. Qin Tianyuan couldn't help frowning and said in a deep voice.

"Okay! That's what you said. "I was afraid that Qin Tianyuan would use her own money to buy something completely useless, until Qin Tianyuan said that she would spend her own money, and she was relieved.

Directly in the center of the room, on a bench with soft seats, sit down in a playful posture, and be a spectator with great interest.

"Since no one bids, then this lot ......" After a long time, no one bid, Deputy Director Liu's eyes rolled, and an imperceptible cunning color flashed in his eyes.

I have to say that Deputy Director Liu is really powerful, and deliberately uses the lot to pass without anyone bidding, and he will be disposed of by himself by the nature of the auction, forcing some anxious people to bid. If the general lot is estimated to be unauctioned, but this is the auction house of the Amber Chamber of Commerce purchased it on its own, and the 1,000 gold coins can be said to be the lowest, and it may not be auctioned at the bottom of the box.

"I'll give you 1,100 gold coins!"

"I'll give you 1,300 gold coins!!"

......

After one person makes a bid, a chain reaction ensues. A bunch of people who wanted to try their luck kept bidding, and when the price rose to 3,000 gold coins, the bidding became rare, and it was obvious that many people felt that this price was already reasonable.

"Three thousand gold coins once!"

"Three thousand gold coins twice! Is there anything else you want to increase?" Deputy Director Liu dropped the hammer twice in a row, his eyes were slightly condensed, and the people who patrolled seemed to want to see who else was interested in bidding.

In the VIP room, Qin Tianyuan was still there, calm and composed, and he didn't plan to bid immediately.

Su Yuyan, who was watching the show on the sidelines, saw that Deputy Director Liu dropped the hammer twice in a row, and seeing that it was still a little short, the lot was about to fall into the hands of other buyers, and Qin Tianyuan did not move, and he was slandered in his heart, afraid that he would have no money. But I feel that there is a kind of unexplained and inexplicable opposition.

"Three thousand five hundred gold coins!"

Sure enough, the next moment, as if confirming Su Yuyan's conjecture, the price rose again, and it was a plus of five hundred gold coins.

Along with this sound, many eyes in the audience converged, a middle-aged man in the front row, this man looked quite distinctive, his hair was very thin, and his triangular eyes were bloodshot, revealing a sense of fatigue. The nose is pointed like an olecranon, thick lips, and a wide face with a pointed chin.

"Cheng Ganshou, do you also want to try your luck?" Not far from his seat, an old man dressed in brocade clothes, slightly old-looking, and clear-eyed opened his mouth to tease.

"Qin Zhen, don't talk to me about these useless things, don't you just want to sabotage. I admit that there are few young people of our Cheng family, and they are not as good as the younger generation of your Qin family. I bought this bronze sword hilt, firstly, to try my luck, and secondly, to use it even if it is useless, to wake up those little rabbit cubs, don't be like others, and ruin my Cheng family's ancestral property. Cheng Shou said with a sigh.

As soon as I heard Cheng Ganshou and Qin Zhen, these two names, many people who are residents of Pinghucheng are clear, Cheng Shou is the three major families of Pinghucheng, the current head of the Cheng family, the reason why his name is called Cheng Shou, is related to his childhood, it is said that Cheng Ganshou was born less than a month, his physique was weak and thin, and he almost died of illness. Thanks to meeting a source map master who traveled all over the world and had a good heart and high strength, he changed his life against the sky with a source map, forcibly rescued Cheng Ganshou from the brink of death, and quietly left without asking for anything in return.

The name of Cheng Ganshou was not given by his father. His original name was supposed to be called Cheng Yi, but he was dissatisfied with this name, and ran to declare that his name was Cheng Ganshou, which was used to warn himself that he was not ungrateful, and that it was the life span given by others.

Since the name change, Cheng Ganshou was ridiculed for his strange name in the Cheng family, and he was even jokingly called Cheng the beast, and became the laughing stock of the Cheng family. No one is optimistic about him, and he was even excluded in the Cheng family, and his father and mother also disliked him and embarrassed him, so they broke off the relationship with him and drove him out of the house.

After more than ten years, he returned to be strong again, and when the old family owner abdicated and ran for the new head of the family, he shined and swept other competitors in one fell swoop to win the position of the head of the family. After he returned to the family, he learned that his father and mother had passed away due to illness a few years ago, regardless of his previous suspicions, he helped his father and mother set up a spiritual position, and knelt in the mourning hall to guard filial piety for three days, which was very admirable.

"Four thousand gold coins!" Qin Zhen also recognized Cheng Ganshou's personality, but due to family disputes, he had to intervene to prevent him from returning to the family to recruit people.

"Four thousand five hundred gold coins!"

"Five thousand gold coins!"

......

Soon the price increased to 6,000 gold coins, which was used to buy a gambling jade item that looked like an ornament, which was a bit expensive.

When Cheng Ganshou shouted out 6,000 gold coins, Qin Zhen directly stopped and stopped bidding.

It's time, Qin Tianyuan said secretly in his heart.

"Six thousand one hundred gold coins!" An extremely hoarse and unpleasant voice came from the rectangle on the right side of everyone's heads.

Everyone was a little surprised, and the people who could enter the auction house were more or less familiar with the cuboids above. These cuboids are ten VIP rooms, and only those with high status, status, or financial resources are eligible to enter the VIP rooms.

Even the city lord of Pinghu City was not qualified to enter, and these ten VIP rooms were almost always empty. Now there are people who are qualified, and everyone is looking at Qin Tianyuan's VIP with awe.

It's a pity that they don't know that this person, whom they regard as a transcendent status, is with his eyes wide open, his mouth wide open, and a surprised and inexplicable expression.

At this moment, Qin Tianyuan had mixed feelings in his heart, and even wanted to cry a little.

If you want to ask why Qin Tianyuan has such emotions in his heart, it is a very simple reason, he doesn't know that there is a special design in the VIP room, that is, the voice of the person in the room can be changed by some special hand, so as not to be recognized by the voice.

But the first time Qin Tianyuan came to the auction house, he didn't know that there was such a wonderful thing, so he was smart enough to take out a slightly poisonous herb. Hurriedly stuffed into the mouth and chewed, resulting in a mouth full of numbness, slurred speech and completely changed the taste, in order to achieve the effect of mixing and listening, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he found that it was completely redundant.

Su Yuyan, who was planning to watch a good show on the side, laughed so hard that she almost didn't have to laugh anymore.

Qin Tianyuan's bid made Cheng Ganshou breathe a sigh of relief, he came to the auction house today, there was something else to buy, six thousand gold coins was really too much, his personal savings over the years were only five thousand gold coins, if he really bought the bronze sword hilt, he had to embezzle the family's savings. This is something that his personal criteria can't tolerate, and he was overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of Qin Zhen's bidding, and it was a good thing for him that someone continued to bid.

"Since no one bids, then this time, the lot will be ......" The bronze sword hilt was auctioned for 6,100 gold coins, and Deputy Director Liu could be said to be quite satisfied with the price, and without any nonsense, he dropped the hammer twice in a row, and wanted to announce the winner of the lot.

"You're not qualified to stay in the VIP room, get out of here!"
