Chapter 42: The Auction in Progress
In less than half an hour, the originally deserted door of Huitian Pavilion suddenly became lively, countless carriages galloped, and then stopped here, and one by one the big people in gorgeous costumes were surrounded by guards and crowded to the auction venue.
"Why did this Huitian Pavilion call us here in a hurry?"
"I heard that there is a heavy treasure ......"
"What, Lao Wang, you robbed my daughter-in-law last time, don't rob me of this heavy treasure this time!"
"Haha, it's easy to say......"
......
With countless noises, the bigwigs were taken into their respective VIP rooms by the maids. I have to say that Huitian Pavilion is Huitian Pavilion in the end, and the publicity alone will overwhelm many chambers of commerce, and the auction venue of several thousand square meters is already full of people, and everyone is talking about the auction items this time.
A huge crystal screen hangs on the top of the auction room, revealing everything on the auction floor.
Xiao Ming didn't speak at all, but Dong Chunyu on the side kept talking, Xiao Ming was going to ignore him.
"Tell me, brother, where did this thing come from?"
"......" Xiao Ming didn't speak.
"Tell me, what the hell is this, Chongbao Wow, how much is it worth!" Dong Chunyu seemed to be bubbling with happiness.
"......" Xiao Ming still didn't speak, but looking at his exposed green muscles, it was already obvious that he was very angry.
......
Led by a maid, Xiao Ming and the others walked through the long corridor to the VIP room, where the middle-aged man and the old man were already waiting in front of the door.
I don't have much feeling for the middle-aged Xiao Ming, that is, an ordinary person doesn't have much ability in the end, but the old man has aroused Xiao Ming's interest and can identify the Space Stone, which is definitely not an unknown person.
"Mr. Luo is here. The old man greeted him with a smile and stretched out his old hand.
Looking at this scene, Xiao Ming naturally would not be rude, and also stretched out his hand to shake it, but a mysterious force also followed, for the old man's emptiness, whether it was Xiao Ming or Void Zhenyan, they were very interested, although Void Zhenyan could visit other people's cultivation, but let them believe that such a knowledgeable old man was just an ordinary person, and they couldn't do it.
"It seems that Mr. is overly worried, and the old man is not a martial artist. Suddenly, the old man seemed to feel Xiao Ming's temptation, and a pair of cloudy eyes lit up.
Just by looking at words and looks, you can see through people's hearts! Xiao Ming's mysterious power that had already penetrated into the old man's meridians suddenly condensed, could it be that this old man was really an ordinary person? In the middle of his thoughts, Xiao Ming had already taken his hand back, and if he continued to probe, it would be rude.
Looking at the trace of doubt flashing in Xiao Ming's eyes, the old man laughed, "Hehe, Mr. Luo don't be surprised, the old man is really an ordinary person, just immersed in treasure appreciation for decades, and has a little understanding of treasures." ”
This dead old man also said that he understood a little, damn, even the tens of thousands of years of antiquities like the Space Stone were said to be a little understood, this old man was really powerful. Void True Flame complained in Xiao Ming's mind, he had been making a fuss since the old man recognized the Space Stone, as if he had suffered a great setback, but in fact, there was no......
Xiao Ming ignored Void Zhenyan's words, smiled and nodded to the old man, which was in response to the old man's explanation, but is this really the case? Xiao Ming would not think so, the Source God Continent is a world that worships martial arts, and there will be people who don't know martial arts at all?
Without thinking about it, the middle-aged man had already pushed the door of the VIP room open, and the old man smiled and made a welcoming gesture, "Please!"
Following the old man's hand, Xiao Ming's gaze moved to the VIP room.
A large crystal partition completely separates the VIP room from the auction venue, the VIP room is not large, but it does not seem stingy, and the golden walls seem to make the visitor feel that he is in a lot of hands, and then desperately bargain.
The layout of the room is simple, a gold-inlaid sandalwood table is placed in the center of the room, and the fruit plate of the gold plate has been placed on it, and the fresh fruit Xiao Ming can't be named at all.
Next to the table stood two chairs made of unknown fur, and the two maids were already standing beside them, as if they had ulterior motives.
Stepping on the white animal skin carpet, Xiao Ming looked at the two maids and frowned, and said, "This is?"
As if knowing that Xiao Ming would ask like this, the middle-aged man stepped forward and said, "This is just a maid who makes an offer for you, if there is anything you want to bid, tell them the offer." ”
"Oh, that's not necessary, the two of us don't have any money, it's just an auction. Xiao Ming said with a smile, he didn't want to cause anything at that time, he was still a serious ...... Kids!
"Mr. Luo, you can rest assured, the value of the space stone you provided is extremely high, after we negotiated and negotiated the price, we unanimously decided to set the low price at 100 million taels of gold, if it is not auctioned this time, this pavilion will pay for the purchase by itself, that is to say, you have at least 100 million taels of gold in your hands to spend. "And if there's anything you don't understand about this auction, you can ask them." ”
Hearing this, Xiao Ming looked at the maids, and the two maids also smiled and signaled, looking very atmospheric.
"Then that's it!" Xiao Ming couldn't refuse anymore, and maybe he really had something to buy?
"In that case, then I wish Mr. a happy auction, and I will retire if I have something to do in the future. The middle-aged man bowed to the old man and slowly retreated out the door.
......
The auction began.
The intense lights suddenly dimmed, and the noisy crowd quieted down.
A golden light shone from the top of the auction hall to the red carpeted platform, and a woman in a red cheongsam walked up to the high platform with her lotus feet.
"It's White Frost! It's White Frost himself!" The entire auction hall suddenly boiled, and countless howls like hungry wolves rose and fell in unison.
"Marry me!"
"White Frost, marry me, I will give you glory and wealth!"
Countless sons and brothers competed with each other with red eyes, and some even mingled.
But the bigwigs were frowning and talking about what the finale of this auction was, and even the chief auctioneer of this Huitian Pavilion appeared.
"Ladies and ......gentlemen," Bai Shuang chuckled, "First of all, the little girl Bai Shuang would like to thank everyone for taking time out of their busy schedules and coming all the way to participate in this ......auction," she said, bowing to the guests in the room.
However, with a single bow, the atmosphere of the venue was ignited, and everyone's sexual spirit was high, as if they were going to give everything for the hoarfrost.
"This auction can be said to be the highest in the past 50 years, and we hope that we will enjoy the auction with a total of 30 precious auction items. The white frost lightly opened the cherry lips, and in a crisp and numb voice, almost all the men were enthusiastic, and the number plate in their hands was ready to move......
Dong Chunyu next to Xiao Ming was no exception, he was still hurriedly stuffing all kinds of strange fruits into his mouth, but he stopped in an instant, and the fruits that he hadn't eaten in his mouth fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Xiao Ming was not fascinated, and I have to say that this hoarfrost was indeed born in the country, but it was still inferior to Lin Luoling.
"This first auction item is called Xuanbing chalcedony, the effect is to help the acquired martial artist break through the innate nature, this piece can only help one person, it must be unfamiliar to everyone, its low price is only 100,000 taels of gold!" Bai Shuang held a thumb-sized piece of ice blue jade and smiled at everyone in the venue.
"One hundred and one hundred thousand!" As soon as the words fell, someone was already shouting, and it was obvious that the man had been fascinated by the hoarfrost.
But Xiao Ming in the VIP room was cold, like a bucket of ice water on his head, "100,000 taels of gold, this is not expensive? goblin, what a goblin!", looking at the men in the venue who were already crazy with hot heads, Xiao Ming had nothing to say, although he also wanted to buy this chalcedony, but considering the price and the effect that it could only be used on one person, Xiao Ming had to give up.
"Two hundred thousand!" in the blink of an eye, the price has doubled!
However, the price climb has not stopped, but has become even hotter.
The atmosphere of the venue was always maintained by this fairy-like woman with a smile and a smile, and when the price was raised to 410,000, everyone gradually gave up.
"Awesome!" Seeing this situation, Xiao Ming couldn't help but admire, Bai Shuang deserved to be the chief auctioneer of Huitian Pavilion, just an ordinary treasure that was only useful for the acquired could be auctioned for a sky-high price.
After the first auction, the atmosphere in the venue has been set to the extreme, as long as the woman named Hoarfrost is present, no matter how strange it is, it can be bought at a sky-high price.
Half an hour has passed, and there are only ten of the thirty items left, and the further back they go, the lower the price of the items becomes, and most of the people in the venue are ordinary people, they have no ability to bargain, and most of them can only watch.
The audience suddenly lit up, and when the halftime time came, Bai Shuang bowed slightly, and told about the next auction, although he said a lot of words, which made everyone's hearts ripple, but in fact, it means that the next game is a rich man's business, and you can go home and wash and sleep.
Xiao Ming lay on the chair with a sigh, twenty things were all good, but none of them were suitable for him, the two maids seemed to have seen through what Xiao Ming was thinking, and told him that there was one excellent item in the back.
But how could Xiao Ming not understand what they meant, and there was really no treachery......
