Chapter 5 Auctions and... conflict
That night, Yu Ping and Sharyl didn't sleep in the same room....because the hotel room is quite abundant, and Shariel is not afraid of the dark or needs to hold a specific person to fall asleep, so I look forward to everyone who has an 18X plot can wash and sleep~
After a peaceful night, early the next morning, Yu Ping was dragged up from the soft bed in the hotel by Sharyl....and then quickly completed the washing process with the help of Sharyl and dragged him to the lobby of the hotel. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"....Can you let me go back to make up for my sleep?Isn't it a little early?It's not all dawn yet..."Yu Ping yawned and complained to Sharyl, who was already dressed and drinking the fresh hot milk provided in the hotel with a happy face, "It's not in the family....I don't have anything to eat when I get up late... What's more, even if it's in the family, it's too early to get up now!"
"Because there are a lot of things to accomplish today....St. Finland will officially start school tomorrow....and Uncle Palu has not yet made all the specialties that we have asked us to help bring," Sharyl drank the hot milk in the cup, and urged Yu Ping, who was obviously not fully awake yet, "So please don't slow down....please solve the breakfast in front of you as quickly as possible, and then go out with me to do business?"
"Obey~My master~" Yu Ping yawned and began to deal with the bread in front of him as fast as he could.
Seeing this, Sharyl nodded with satisfaction, asked the waiter to pour her a glass of hot milk, and then watched Yu Ping, who was gobbling up, drink happily.
Their first stop of the day was the auction house in the Holy City.... It is also the only official auction house in the city, and it is one of the most majestic and well-known auction houses on the continent, having auctioned dozens of 'artifact' level magic costumes.
The so-called 'artifact' is an artifact that possesses some kind of extremely powerful anti-heaven power, even if a mortal holds it in his hand, it can give it the ability to kill a powerful magic cultivator.
Like what... The main body of the light blue long knife in Yu Ping's hand, the 'Demon Scattering Blade', was one of the artifacts that had been auctioned in this auction hall, and it was also the only artifact that had failed to be auctioned in all the auctions where artifacts had appeared.
Because apart from the mysterious and powerful 'Pope', there is no one else who can hold this light blue long knife of unknown origin for more than five seconds without draining his own magic power....
Later, because no one wanted to buy it, it was sealed in the Holy See's arsenal, and it became a high-level but useless collection.
Of course, Yu Ping and Sharyl's goal is not something of this level....if they are sold, it may not be worth a fraction of the auction price of an artifact.
What they were buying were items that were auctioned in the daily small auctions held during the day, in the branch rooms of the auction hall that were officially used by the Holy See.
In fact, it is not so much an auction as a trade fair for the delivery of documents... The Holy See took the initiative to take the lead in coming up with some limited materials, herbs or potions that are difficult to obtain from the outside world, so as to attract some customers to bid for them, and at the same time possess some relatively rare items, but the rarity is not enough to make it to the large auction held once a month in the evening, and they can also put their goods here for sale....As long as someone is willing to pay the seller's price, and no one else increases the price within ten minutes, then they can successfully sell their goods.
Of course, if you sell it in this way, the auction house will charge a 5% commission.
And Sharyl's target is a more precious metal called 'Holy Silver Iron', which is officially sold here by the Holy See all year round... If they're lucky, they should be able to buy this kind of item at the reserve price, which is only available in limited quantities through the official Holy See through positive channels.
But obviously, they didn't have a lot of luck today.
Because when Yu Ping and Sha Ryle entered the door of this auction house, they met a pair of young silver-haired men and women.
"What a coincidence....we're meeting again...."
The silver-haired Xiao Zhengtai, who looked to be only about thirteen or fourteen years old, stared at Yu Ping and the others with a smile, but his words were full of a trace of hostility.
"It looks like today... I'm going to leave you empty-handed..."
The silver-haired girl who looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old had already stared at Yu Ping at the same time as she spotted the two, and the hostility emanating from her dark golden pupils made him feel very uncomfortable.
ā... Who are you? Do we know each other?" asked softly, sensing the hostility of the two men towards her, a look of confusion on her face.
Silver-haired Shota: "...."
After two seconds of froze, a look of anger appeared on his face and he exclaimed, "You're fine....if you can photograph anything today, I won't call it Alan Reese!"
Yu Ping was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then almost laughed directly..... his lovely hostess seemed to have just inadvertently caused some damage to the self-esteem of the angry little Zhengtai in front of her....
"Wait a minute...."Sharyl grabbed Xiao Zhengtai's shoulder, who was about to turn around and leave, and said with a puzzled expression, "You haven't answered me yet....and why do you, a member of the Reese family, want to oppose me?"
"Poof...."Yu Ping finally couldn't help it, covered his stomach and began to laugh.
"Let go of the little ....young master!" The silver-haired girl saw that her master was held down by Sharyl's shoulder, and immediately swung her fist at Sharyl's face while roaring angrily.
Then her fist was caught steadily by Sharyl, and at the same time, her dark golden vertical pupils suddenly shrank....she didn't expect that the seemingly slender human girl in front of her had such great power.
At this moment, Yu Ping also stopped his smile, seeing that the other party dared to do it directly to his 'master', he immediately pulled out the long knife tied around his waist, and the blade was pointed directly at the silver-haired girl who was staleming with Sharyl.
"It's forbidden here! if you want to fight, get out of here and fight in the gladiatorial arena!"
Just when Yu Ping thought that an inexplicable battle was inevitable, a tall and thin young man appeared out of thin air between Sharyl and the silver-haired girl, directly separating the two.
"The next time you commit it, you will be directly imprisoned in the Holy City Prison!"
After coldly throwing out a sentence, the tall and thin man once again disappeared into Yu Ping's sight out of thin air.
Seeing this, Yu Ping put away his knife, and the silver-haired Zhengtai also snorted coldly, and turned directly into the auction hall....Sharyl no longer stopped.
The silver-haired girl took a deep look at Sharyl and then turned around and followed the silver-haired Shota away.
"These two people are really strange...."Sharyl looked at the backs of the two leaving, and sighed towards Yu Ping beside him: "Inexplicably, they want to fight against us....but are they really from the Rees family?"
The Rees family, the neighbor of the Huiyue Empire, is also one of the seven empires of the Bright Moon Empire, a relatively powerful family....Its hard power is naturally far inferior to the Roland family, but it also surpasses the Roland family.
That's ....rich! very rich!
The Chamber of Commerce established by the Rees family is the richest chamber of commerce on the entire continent except for the 'Holy Merchant Group' established by the Holy See....The head of the family may not necessarily have great strength, but he must have a strong economic acumen.
For example, if you provoke the head of the Roland family, you will die directly.
And if you mess with the head of the Reese family....you won't die, but you'll have a pretty hard time.
"Actually... They're really not weird...."Yu Ping looked at Shariel with a blank face, and reminded with a smile: "We met them yesterday....those two guys who were cut in line by us to meet Master White. ā
"....remember," Sharyl tapped her head and sighed with a look of sudden realization, "Then should we apologize to them?"
"It doesn't look like it's going to be necessary...."Yu Ping said with a smile: "Looking at their appearance, they don't look like people who will accept an apology well...."
"I'm in trouble....I definitely don't have as much money as the people of the Rees family....if they really are from the Rees family, maybe they will really go home empty-handed today...."
"You're thinking too much, aren't there a lot of stalls here?" Yu Ping said nonchalantly, "It's not like we're really so unlucky to meet them in the same stall again, right?"
"That's right..."
