Chapter 248: Hubert's Goal
readx;?? The crowd followed Adam to the second level and saw the scene of the second layer. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The second floor of the info obsidian store is also an oval structure, surrounded by exotic flowers and plants, fragrant, and three obsidian stones that are one size larger than the previous one are placed on three wooden platforms.
The scene on the second floor is not much different from the first floor, and everyone said that they have become accustomed to the generosity of the obsidian specialty store for these rare and exotic plants that were rarely seen in the past.
Adam took Colin and the two of them to the front of the three obsidian wooden tables and continued to preside over the auction.
"As you can see, these three obsidian stones are much larger than the first layer, weighing about four catties. ”
"Therefore, the reserve price of our auction must also be doubled, starting at 60,000 Divine Favor Coins, and each increase must not be less than 1,000 Divine Favor Coins. ”
Adam didn't advertise the auction items too much, after all, the value of obsidian was there, and Adam didn't need much introduction.
"The auction begins. Adam announced.
A group of people came up from the corridor, they were the children of the nobles of the major families, and William could see clearly in the crowd.
Among them, Prince Hubert and the father and son surnamed De happened to be among them.
William glanced at Prince Hubert, frowned slightly, and whispered to himself, "Why is he here?"
The Iron Mask General's eyes moved, and he looked at William standing in the crowd as if he had realized something.
The expression on William's face changed quickly, and when he saw Iron Mask looking over, he smiled and nodded at General Iron Mask, and then turned his head to look at the three wooden platforms where Adam was, and put on a look of interest in obsidian.
When Prince Hubert noticed the unusual behavior of the Iron Mask, he turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The iron-masked general shook his head and said, "It's okay, I just saw that Commander William was also there." ”
Iron Face said, gesturing to where William was. Hubert looked up, and sure enough, he saw William standing in the crowd, as if he hadn't noticed Hubert's eyes, watching Adam's auction with great interest.
Hubert smiled and said, "It turned out to be General William, I really haven't seen him for a long time, and I really miss the last time I had a drink with him in the Prince's Mansion." ”
Hubert and William had a good relationship, which was well known in the prince's mansion.
William, as a ninth-level master of the Principality of Tianying, and Hubert, as the only prince of Tianying, must have a good relationship with him. Even Hubert had the idea of subduing William, after all, William's force value was there, and Hubert must be very tempted.
If William can be successfully subdued, Hubert will have two generals under him, the eighth-level Iron Mask and the ninth-level William, and Hubert will be the next monarch. Even Hubert can use the combat power of the two to do some zhengzhi activities (sensitive words, pinyin instead. ), improve the status of the Principality of Tianying on the Morino Continent, not to mention making the Principality of Tianying an empire in one fell swoop, at least it can get rid of the embarrassing situation of being unable to expand now.
To give a simple example, if Hubert and William were assassinated at the last dinner, Hubert could suspect that anyone had done it, but he would never suspect that William had done it.
Not to mention William's ninth-level strength, there is no need to invite assassins to deal with him, so it is also very good to say that the two have a personal relationship.
Hubert categorically did not suspect that William was the one who asked the Assassins to assassinate him.
Elder Ying muttered in a low voice on the side: "Your Highness, you see that Captain William is so arrogant that he doesn't even look at His Highness. ”
Elder Ying was a little jealous of William's status in Prince Hubert's mind, he had served Prince Hubert for so many years, but his status in the prince's mind was far inferior to William's.
Hubert glanced at William, laughed and said: "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, he didn't see this king, it's not arrogant, don't be too careful." ”
Elder Ying nodded yes.
The bidding hosted by Adam continued, and the price of the first obsidian had climbed to 70,000 Divine Favor Coins, and everyone's enthusiasm for bidding had not yet subsided, and the price was still soaring.
"Is there a higher price? This son has bid 76,000 Divine Grace Coins!"
Adam said with a smile, and people noticed that he did not use his fighting spirit, but his voice was so loud that everyone present could hear what Adam was saying.
Although Adam said these words, his attention was always on the newcomers.
The men stood silently at the back of the crowd, and only a few people noticed that they had just come up to the second floor.
Adam recognized that most of these people were from the great families and nobles of the Tianying Capital, and the most representative of them were Prince Hubert and the father and son surnamed De.
One is a prince with unusually strong financial resources.
One is the Tianjiao family, whose resources should not be underestimated.
These people can come, which makes Adam's heart bloom, obsidian is more popular among the higher the group of people, and only the people of the upper class know the value of obsidian better.
Sure enough, as Adam expected, these people who had already missed the first layer of obsidian already had a kind of impatience to get the second layer of obsidian.
didn't want to let go of even one, and not long after Adam's words fell, some of the new people began to shout impatiently: "I'll give 80,000 god coins!"
Adam said happily: "This uncle paid 80,000 divine favor coins, he really deserves to be the great nobleman of the Tianying Principality, the bid is really extraordinary, is there anyone who offers a higher price?"
The great nobleman who had just made the bid was an old man, whom Adam had seen at Prince Hubert's dinner, and he was sitting next to Prince Hubert in a very distinguished position.
When the uncle heard Adam's words, he laughed and said, "The young man's fart is not in place, but I like it!"
Colin frowned slightly, this old man gave people the feeling that he was a little disrespectful.
Adam smiled disapprovingly, but he was very happy in his heart, such a talent is so excited, he will give a lot of money to himself.
The price continued to climb all the way, and the old man did not live up to Adam's expectations, and kept the highest bid, from 70,000 to 80,000, from 80,000 to 90,000.
Adam has been praising him with words, flattering openly or secretly patting on the back, which makes this uncle's heart very comfortable, and he does not hesitate to bid.
Finally, the first obsidian of the second layer was captured by this master at the price of 100,000 divine favor coins.
Adam smiled and congratulated, "Congratulations to Uncle for taking the first obsidian of this second layer." ”
The old man smiled and said nothing, looking at Adam with a look of appreciation in his eyes, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that Adam was sensible, not only could he speak, but he was also able to do things. No, before the auction ended, Colin brought the obsidian over to the old man, and of course, behind Colin was the waitress with the card slot.
The old man took the first obsidian under the watchful eye of everyone, although he felt a little pain in his heart for this huge amount of divine favor coins, but in order to maintain his demeanor, the old man had to smile and face everyone.
William, who was standing in the crowd, looked at Adam in surprise, how long has it been since he came up from the first layer, and he actually harvested 100,000 divine favor coins, this way of profit made William amazed. It was too fast, and he felt that Adam was simply a charismatic coin production tool.
This made William admire Adam even more in his heart, and at the same time strengthened his determination to form an alliance with Adam, so that the allies who would make money must not be let go, and the Cold Blade Mercenary Group must catch Adam well.
This is an opportunity for Chillblade to rise, and it is also an opportunity for himself.
In another place, Elder Ying asked Hubert in a low voice, "Your Highness, do we need to make a bid?"
Hubert shook his head and said, "There's no need, no bid, I want the third layer of obsidian, if those waitresses don't deceive us, the third layer of obsidian is the most precious." ”
The newcomers had heard the waitress and knew that the third layer of obsidian was larger, heavier, and of higher quality.
Elder Ying nodded, then stepped aside and remained silent.
