Chapter 41: The Auction Begins
In the next few days, I became idle again, Aunt Xiao Hong has already modeled the situation of the survivors of the storm mercenary group that belongs to the city, I have wanted to go there several times, but unfortunately Zhang Hanwen stopped me, I don't understand very much.
I heard that there are not only the bereaved families of the Storm Mercenary Group living there, but also many of them are the families of the mercenaries who died in the war and are missing, and their lives are very difficult, according to Zhang Hanwen, the reason why I am not allowed to go is because I don't want to have too much impact, whether it is for me or for those bereaved families.
However, Zhang Hanwen has sponsored those bereaved families many times through Aunt Xiao Hong, which finally made me feel better, hey, I have also been infected with the emotions of these living people.
Two days before the auction, Zhang Hanwen helped me pay 30,000 silver coins to the Mercenary Guild, which was the auction deposit, which allowed me to enter the venue smoothly. Then, I still have nothing to do, everyone is watching, and the entire mercenary guild is passing on the ownership of my Bode Storm, and then how big and big a mercenary group will be built.
In the past few days, the only one who may not have nothing to do is Cui Jian, these days, those little guys who are ready to become mercenary scouts, have been touched to the servants at all levels to do something at night, which makes those servants worry about it at night, and hang their hearts, there have been countless people who have come to me to complain, but I am happy to see it, but unfortunately, no one comes to disturb me, which makes me have a lot less fun.
On September 22, the 14th year of Zhang Ping, Yecheng, an important town in the north, the Mercenary Guild, at the seventh prayer in the evening, a very ordinary auction officially began, but it was not ordinary for me, because in this auction, there were two things that I had to get.
Zhang Hanwen came to book a place for me in a suitcase, but I refused, I wanted to sit in the auction hall as an ordinary mercenary, and now I am sitting in this hall.
There are a lot of people here today, and a small number of them are wearing Martin suits, which makes me speechless, it seems that these are my competitors, but I didn't expect so many people to ask for this title. But compared to the qualification certification that day, it's a lot less, and I have to say, what is this!
Just as I kept looking around, out of the corner of my eye, a person sat down beside me, and at the same time, a voice came: "Brother Ma, it's really early today!"
I turned my head to look, but it was the leader of the Fire Phoenix Mercenary Group, and today he was still in the same clothes as last time, so I nodded to him and said, "Brother Zeng, it's not too late for you!
"Of course, how about it, how about it?"
"Yes, as long as the price is right. I smiled at him.
"Oh, how much money are you going to give me?" Zeng Qiang immediately put on a very interested look.
When I was still thinking about what outrageous price to quote him, he had already begun to calculate: "The valuation of these dozen things today is not too high, and the starting price is around five or six thousand silver coins, that is, those two swords may be worth more, and the maximum starting price is about 10,000, but in the end, there is a mysterious item to be auctioned, but, looking at today's grade, I think that the price will not exceed 20,000, so how about I give you 30,000?" ”
"Huh. I sat upright, not looking at him, he naturally knew that I was not satisfied with this offer, he asked: "Brother Ma, do you say a price, for this title, I am very attentive, brother, you want to raise your noble hand!"
"I definitely won't let this price, do you really want to know my asking price?" I asked Zeng Qiang.
"Ahh
"I have prepared this number for this title. I held out my left hand and gestured to him.
"Fifty thousand, uh, I'll think about it. Zeng Qiang frowned, this title is just a D-level mercenary title, after getting it, he has to go to pile up tasks to raise him, 50,000 is a bit high.
"No, I've got five hundred gold coins ready. I said lightly.
"What, five hundred gold coins, that's 500,000 silver coins!" Zeng Qiang was surprised, his mercenary group only earned more than one million silver coins a year, which already made him the head of the top ten B-level mercenary groups, and he hoped to hit the A-level within five years, but the one next to him wanted to use half of his annual income to buy a title!
"What, how much money are you going to spend to buy a mercenary group?" Zeng Qiang's eyes are not much smaller than the copper bell now, a title will have to prepare 500,000 silver coins, how much does he prepare for a mercenary group? That's just a D-class mercenary group!
"More than ten times should be fine. I cupped my chin and thought about it.
"Ten times!" Zeng Qiang glanced back at the VIP box on the second floor before he said, "I think you should go up there and not mix with us." ”
I said to myself, you're right, I should have gone up, there was indeed a room in the box on the second floor that was mine, but when I got here, I asked to sit here.
In the non-nutritious fart between me and Zeng Qiang, time passed quickly, at half past seven, the auction officially began, I turned my head to look at the second floor, most of the lights in the box were not on, it seems that today's auction is really not up to grade.
The first lot was a fifth-level magic core, and the hostess put the magic core in a tray and walked to the middle of the auction table, the magic core was the size of an adult's fist, and the magic core emitted an aqua blue magical glow, and from time to time there would be something like a turtle floating out above the magic core.
I whispered to Zhang Hanwen, "Uncle Zhang, what do you think of this magic core?"
"The quality is good, but the level is a little lower, judging from the magic brilliance it emits, it should be water-based. Zhang Hanwen said with a little regret.
"It's not low, isn't it! there's already mimicry fluctuations!" I whispered.
"Mimic fluctuations?" Zhang Hanwen and Zeng Qiang asked me at the same time, and I looked at the two people in confusion and said, "Can't you see? ”
"No!" the two tried to look over, but they didn't see anything. Zhang Hanwen glanced at me suspiciously, and Zeng Qiang said, "Brother Ma, did you really see it?"
"Yes, a turtle will appear on the core in about half a minute. "I say for sure.
"This is the magic core of a thick-armored turtle, everyone knows that the back armor of the thick-armored turtle is an excellent material for making shields, and the fifth-level thick-armored turtle is even more of the best among the turtles, this magic core is the magic core of a thick-armored turtle that has survived for more than two hundred years and has reached the middle level of the fifth level, and it is the best choice for the village-level defensive array array!" the auctioneer introduced diligently on the auction table, and at the same time, the magic image projected every detail of the magic core on the white wall behind the auction table.
