Chapter 44: The Auction House
Shangwu Auction House is where Ye Fei is going tonight.
It is located in a private villa in the north of Xingcheng.
People who don't know the inside story don't know that there is something else in this villa. Even the security guard at the gate outside the villa thought that the owner of this villa liked to party and had a good time every three months.
If Ye Fei only had that one million rewards, it was indeed too little.
But there are not many Yin Soul Spirit Crystals on his body.
According to Huang Wei, the Yin Soul Spirit Crystal is very valuable in the auction house, and it can be evaluated first and then bid.
The Yin Spirit Crystal is worth a lot?
No wonder Hulai and Sang Xing will take revenge on themselves.
It's no wonder that when they suck the Yin Spirit Crystal for the two, they will be grateful.
No wonder Gao Anxian and those people from the three hidden world sects would desperately compete for the Yin Soul Spirit Crystal that finally appeared on the surface of Nanhu Lake.
No wonder on the way back to Xingcheng from Nanhu, all the watchmen looked at themselves with strange faces.
…………
Ye Fei first returned to No. 333 Public Street.
reported to Gao Anxian the bodyguard task he had undertaken, and then unified the voice with them: go to the army for training for a month.
This remark is mainly to coax the mother.
After all, she can't go home for a month, and I'm afraid she will worry.
Next, Ye Fei pulled Huang Wei aside and asked about the situation of the Shangwu Auction House again.
As night fell, Ye Fei set off alone.
Looking at the roadmap given by Huang Wei, his voice echoed in his ears: "In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, when entering the auction workshop, you will generally buy a disposable array talisman mask to cover your appearance and aura. You are a watchman, and your identity is more sensitive than those hidden sects, so it's better to cover it up. ”
A disposable array mask made of paper talismans.
It's light, but it works great.
After wearing the Formation Talisman Mask, in addition to the inability to change the body shape, the appearance, voice, and breath have changed greatly.
However, it only lasts for eight hours.
Eight hours is enough for an auction.
Ye Fei came to the outside of the villa, bent his two fingers and knocked on the big iron door three times and two times five times, and the iron door slowly opened a small door.
…………
On each side of the small door stood one person, a middle-aged man and a young man.
Middle-aged people are second-level martial arts personalities, and young people are martial arts first-level personalities.
Even the gatekeepers are grid-level masters, and this auction shop is very strong.
In the courtyard, there were more than a dozen young women, each of whom was beautiful.
They don't know martial arts, and they are responsible for guiding.
Seeing that Ye Fei was so young and came alone, the middle-aged man couldn't help but be stunned. After a slight look, he nodded to the young man.
Obviously, he saw Ye Fei's martial arts level.
Knowing the knock code and being a cultivator, there is no problem with the identity.
The young man said to Ye Fei: "Welcome to Shangwu Auction House!" 1,000 yuan per seat in the hall and 50,000 yuan per VIP room.
"Hall, one."
"Okay, do you need a disposable mask?"
"Yes."
Ye Fei took out his mobile phone and transferred two thousand yuan.
In exchange for a mask, and a sign - number 218.
This sign is not only a seat card, but also a sign for bidding.
The mask was crudely made, and there were not many runes inscribed, but it cost a thousand; Entering the auction hall, regardless of whether you sell or not, the entrance fee is 1,000 yuan, and the VIP room is as high as 50,000 yuan.
There is no doubt that both of these are important sources of income for Sangmu Auction House.
Ye Fei has just received a reward of one million.
Two thousand dollars, just a small amount of money for him.
If it weren't for the other party's sale per capitation, he would still want to buy a few more masks.
Although the Shangwu Auction House wants to make money, they are doing business for a long time, so they naturally don't want the mask to spread.
If someone copies it, won't they lose a lot of income?
…………
Put on a mask and show only your eyes.
Ye Fei was led by a guide lady and walked into the basement...
The basement has apparently undergone extensive remodeling, and the hall is spacious, with twenty rows of seats large enough for more than a thousand people, as well as ten VIP rooms and an auction table. However, the decoration is very average, like the mask, everything is very rough.
Ye Fei was a little drumming in his heart.
Look at this appearance, I'm afraid there are no good goods!
Uncle Huang, it's really not very reliable.
At this time, the auction hall was already occupied by nearly 100 people. There are also people coming one after another, everyone wearing masks.
Some wore brocade costumes, while others simply wore black.
Judging from their demeanor, most of them were cultivators.
As soon as Ye Fei took a seat, a scantily clad young girl immediately served tea, cakes, and fruits, and the service attitude was so good that people had nothing to say.
8:50 p.m.
The auction hall was almost full.
As for whether the 10 VIP rooms are also full?
Ye Fei didn't know, and he wasn't interested in knowing, he was only interested in the dragon-related exercises.
Nine o'clock in the evening.
The auction has officially begun.
An old man in Chinese clothes who looked like a smiling Maitreya walked up to the auction table and smiled before saying a word: "Good evening, everyone, let's meet again!" Everything comes according to the old rules. Don't say much, go straight to the dry goods! ”
This person is quite famous in the road and is known as Hong Ye.
Don't look at him with a smile on his face, but he is a martial arts fourth-level personality master.
He is also the number one master of the martial arts auction house.
It is said that those who dared to make trouble in the auction house were all interrupted by him.
The people at the end don't talk much.
The so-called old rules, Ye Fei has inquired about them from Huang Wei.
There are no more than four rules: no trouble in the auction house; Each auction is ten auction items, fair bidding, the highest bidder wins; In the case of barter, the auction house will conduct on-site valuation; After the auction, the goods were sold on the spot.
…………
The auction began shortly
To Ye Fei's surprise, the first auction item was extraordinary.
It was a bottle of healing elixir, which could be taken internally and externally.
Within an hour, even the most serious injuries can be healed.
It can be said that this is a bottle of life-saving medicine.
If the goods are good, the price will naturally be high.
Although there are only three pills in total, the starting price is as high as 3 million, and the price increase is not less than 500,000 each time.
Even if it is sold at the starting price, it will be one million for one drug.
Compared with the anti-cancer injections that are in the experimental period, it is not much worse.
In just four minutes, the price has reached a terrifying 10 million.
In the end, it sold for 25 million.
With a healing holy relic like the Soul Palace, Ye Fei naturally wouldn't make a move.
The second lot is a long sword that is as sharp as clay.
For swords, Ye Fei was also not interested. I don't think it's enough for you, but it's still comfortable to use.
The third auction item is a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum.
The fourth auction item is a black zombie with three charms on his forehead, and his strength is comparable to that of a third-level martial arts personality. Its strength Ye Fei was a little interested, but unfortunately it had no soul and could not be used.
So far, every auction item has been very good.
Ye Fei was also an eye-opener.
…………
An hour later.
Ye Fei finally waited for what he wanted.
Hong Ye took a brocade box from the beautiful assistant, and said with a smile: "The next auction item is a special exercise, called 'Dancer Under the Moon'. This is a knife technique, created by a senior who watched the dragon play in the water under the moon. ”
A lot of people immediately showed signs of excitement.
Obviously, most of them came for this exercise.
Just when everyone was waiting for the bidding, Hong Ye changed his words: "However, this exercise is a little seriously damaged, and only half of it is left." ”
When many people heard this, they were disappointed.
However, there are still some people who have refined the knife technique who are still interested, and although half of it is incomplete, it still has great reference significance.
"Master Hong, let's talk about the price directly."
Those who are anxious even open their mouths to urge.
Hong Ye smiled bitterly: "Everyone, listen to me, this half is a little special, it is the lower half that is cut horizontally. ”
"Huh?"
"Cut horizontally? Or the bottom half? ”
"What's the use of that? It's equivalent to reading a book from heaven. ”
Those with a frizzy personality are even more disrespectful: "You have lost the upper part horizontally, how can you practice?" Do you rely on cranky thinking? If Lao Tzu could make up his brain, he would have become a peerless master a long time ago, what are you doing here? ”
"Right? Obviously you're kidding us! ”
Ye Fei was also a little disappointed.
However, he had no intention of giving up.
The Soul Palace can simulate martial arts, can it complete this sword technique?
Mostly!
…………
The public was angry, and Hong Ye was also a little panicked.
Busy said: "Don't get excited, since this half of the sword technique is a mutilated auction item, the price is naturally not high, the starting price is only one million, and the price increase is not less than 100,000 each time." ”
"A million? That's pretty much it. ”
"Well, that's an acceptable price."
"There's always something to be learned from it."
One million may be a lifelong goal for the average person.
But to these cultivators, it was nothing.
Therefore, there were quite a few bidders, almost more than 20 people.
Worried about being pitted, every time the price is raised, it is 100,000.
Even so, the price soon reached fifteen million.
At this point, it's almost the limit. Those who are still bidding are only three or five people left.
Ye Fei was ready to make a move.
He first called the appraiser at the auction house and asked him to evaluate the price of the Yin Spirit Crystal. Of course, it is an ordinary Yin Soul Spirit Crystal obtained from the Crypt without dragon breath. Moreover, it is the smallest one.
As a result, this Yin Soul Spirit Crystal was estimated at 30 million.
Ye Fei was stunned on the spot.
So high?
Those two losers each absorbed twenty pieces, didn't this defeat me 1.2 billion?
it!
Although the heart hurts, it is more exciting.
The smallest ordinary Yin Soul Spirit Crystal is still worth so much, but what about the large Yin Spirit Crystal with dragon breath?
Still not directly hundreds of millions?
I didn't expect Lao Tzu to be a rich man!
Touching the hundreds of Yin Soul Spirit Crystals in his arms, Ye Fei was suddenly full of confidence, and roughly reported the amount of the first bid in his life: "Twenty million." ”
With a one-time price increase of five million, he intends to end the auction in waves.
If you don't see the hope of competition, others will be deterred.
Really!
As soon as this price came out, the audience was suddenly silent.
