Chapter XXXVI: The Auction

After some thorough questioning of the tavern owner, Chen Fan finally had some preliminary understanding of this auction.

It turned out that what Orion picked up in the cave was a scroll of spiritual rank martial arts, this kind of martial arts is rare today, and even if there is, it often only exists in the hands of those famous families or mainland powerhouses, and will never be circulated in the market. This volume of exercises is called Heavenly Yuan Qi, which is divided into two layers, cultivated to the first level, which can double your vitality during the battle, thus greatly suppressing the opponent, and if you cultivate to the second layer, you can break through the first level in a short period of time, so that you can reach a new level. Because of this, there are a lot of martial artists who come to buy this volume of exercises at this auction, and the whole village is also very lively.

Not long after, Fang Han, Xiao Wen, Xiao Wu, Yue Wuya and others came down from upstairs to eat, Chen Fan sat down with everyone, and gave a brief explanation of what the tavern owner said to a few people, and said that at the end, he slammed the table and said categorically: "The spiritual level exercise method can be described as hard to find, this time, we have to fight for it no matter what." ”

Fang Han and the others were stunned for a moment, forgetting each other's anxious eyes, and in the end, Xiao Wen cleared his throat and said to Chen Fan: "Brother Chen, we ...... Do we have that much money to go to this auction?"

Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, and sighed secretly, indeed, counting the money he won in the last competition, everyone could barely scrape together a thousand gold coins, I'm afraid that even the starting price of the Spirit Rank Exercise is not enough, this is a nerve-wracking problem.

Chen Fan sat there, scratching the back of his head in embarrassment, unable to think of a good idea for a while.

In the end, Chen Fan chuckled and said, "Don't care about him first, we have to fight for it no matter what!" Xiao Wen, you go out and inquire immediately, there are those people who are mainly involved in this auction, and by the way, find out their strength. ”

"Okay, Brother Chen. Xiao Wen replied and walked out quickly. He was very efficient, and before noon, he delivered a complete auction information to Chen Fan.

Chen Fan flipped through it casually, handed it back to Xiao Wen, and said, "Save time, Xiao Wen, you can pick a few main ones and talk to everyone." ”

Xiao Wen picked up the teacup, took a shallow sip, then glanced at Chen Fan and the others, and began to introduce the specific situation of this auction to everyone.

The auction is scheduled to take place in three days at an auction house in the village. In the past few days, many warriors who have come to the village have begun to gather in a steady stream, because the price of this auction has been repeatedly raised by everyone, so that the reserve price of the auction has also risen again and again, from the initial 500 gold coins to 1,000 gold coins, and now 2,000 gold coins, in view of this, many independent individuals have come together to reach an alliance and participate in this auction together.

Among them, there are several larger gangs that may pose a great threat to Chen Fan in this auction:

The first gang is the Montori family, which is a local family, and it is also the richest family within a radius of 100 miles, with very strong financial resources and a very strong local power, and the Montmont family has high hopes for this auction, and it can even be said that it is inevitable.

The second gang is the Innate Alliance, which is a group composed of a group of Innate Realm martial artists, with a large number of people, although the financial resources of the Innate Alliance are not the strongest among the gangs, but when it comes to power, it is definitely the best among the people.

The third gang is the Wanda Association, which is an association composed entirely of retail investors, with relatively scattered personnel, but its own strength is not weak, and it also hopes to get a piece of the pie in this auction.

The fourth gang is the Hong Cheng organization, which was founded by a local family surnamed Hong, and is also eyeing this auction.

Of course, there are also some people who are here to join in the fun, which can also play a certain role in the auction.

Xiao Wen talked endlessly for more than half an hour, and finally came to an end, and when he took a sip of tea and looked at Chen Fan and the others, he almost hit the wall without being depressed. It turned out that except for Chen Fan, who listened quite seriously, Fang Han, Xiao Wu and Yue Wuya on the side had already fallen asleep on the table.

Chen Fan smiled bitterly and looked at the people who were already asleep on the side, shrugged his shoulders helplessly at Xiao Wen, and said, "Xiao Wen, look, what are our chances of winning this auction?"

Xiao Wen glanced at Chen Fan, muttered in his mouth, and did not answer.

"Huh?" Chen Fan asked again.

After a long pause, Xiao Wen said: "Brother Chen, with all due respect, if we can't raise a lot of money in a short period of time, I'm afraid we won't even have a chance of winning." ”

"This is a problem!" Chen Fan knocked his forehead in distress.

After a pause, Xiao Wen suddenly stood up, he looked directly at Chen Fan, and said with blazing eyes: "Brother Chen, I have a way!" Then, Xiao Wen woke up Fang Han and the others, and told everyone about his plan, after some instructions, several people discussed for a while, before it was dark, Chen Fan, Xiao Wu and Yue Wuya took advantage of the night to walk out of the tavern and walked towards the place of the Meng family who lived in the village.

There was nothing to say all the way, and when Chen Fan and the others arrived at the door of the Mongolian Mansion, the sky was not completely dark.

As soon as they arrived at the gate of the Mongol Palace, a servant who was guarding the gate came up to them, raised his head, and shouted to them, "Who are you, what are you doing here?"

Chen Fan took a step forward and replied loudly: "We are from the auction house, and we have something to discuss with the patriarch of the Meng family. ”

The servant looked at Chen Fan carefully and asked, "Is there a letter of appointment from the patriarch?"

Chen Fan's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly replied: "The patriarch only said to let us come over, and there is no letter of appointment, don't you still have any doubts about the patriarch's words?" Saying that, Chen Fan snorted coldly: "Otherwise, you will report it now, but I'm afraid that when the time comes... Hey hey ......"

The maid was taken aback by Chen Fan's sudden sneer, and after thinking about it carefully, the patriarch has indeed been in frequent contact with the people of the auction house these days, and it is normal for people to visit this time. Thinking of this, the servant put his mind at ease and said with a smile: "Since you are a guest of the patriarch, brothers, please come in!"

Chen Fan and the others looked at each other, no longer polite, and strode towards the Mongolian Mansion, but before Chen Fan could enter the gate of the Mongolian Mansion, the servant suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"

Chen Fan stopped and said with a solemn face: "Brother, is there anything else?"

The servant looked at Chen Fan suspiciously, and asked, "Several little brothers are very angry, why haven't I seen a few of you when the patriarch invited people from the auction house to come to the house as guests in the past?"

Hearing this, Chen Fan's complexion changed slightly, and his hand was subconsciously placed on his waist. He knew in his heart that it would not be difficult to solve the servant in front of the door with his own few people, but once he really did that, then his action would be tantamount to failure.

Xiao Wu and the others behind Chen Fan also had ugly faces, and they were all ready to do it at any time.

Chen Fan took a deep breath, his eyes rolled, and he said nonsense without red or panting: "Ao, that's the case, my name is Wan Luo, I just entered the auction house a few days ago, I just arrived, brother, you see some big people every day, how can you remember me as a small person!"

His words not only greatly devalued himself, but also raised the value of the servant intentionally or unintentionally, and the servant was overjoyed when he heard it, and laughed on his back: "I see, haha, okay, even if I know you in the future, you can come to me at any time if you have any difficulties." ”

Chen Fan snorted secretly, thinking that you would be really brilliant if you gave you some sunshine! But he still pretended to be grateful to Dade, and said with a smile: "This is natural, and there will be trouble for brothers in the future." ”

"All right, you go in!" said the servant, with a wave of his hand, indicating that they could pass.

After hearing this, the three of them all breathed a sigh of relief.

After walking into the Meng Mansion, Xiao Wu wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and said with some fear: "It was so dangerous just now, if it wasn't for Brother Chen's quick reaction, we would definitely be exposed!"

Chen Fan smiled, waved his hand and said: "In a while, we will split up, first go to investigate the situation in the Mongolian Mansion, make sure that we know in our hearts, and gather here on time in the early hours of the morning! In addition, everyone be careful, once our identities are exposed, then our operation this time will be considered a failure." ”

"Don't worry, Brother Chen!"

Xiao Wu and Yue Wuyan responded in a deep voice, and in an instant, the figures of the three disappeared into the vast night.
