Chapter 266: Competitive Auction

In the early morning twilight, the wind was light and the clouds were rippling, and a touch of sky light had just emerged in Dongshan, Duan Lie stepped on the morning light and came to the door of the Obury Auction House.

At this time, the flow of people was not dense, and the vendors in the streets and alleys came out with carts and baskets, and the business of the new day was being prepared, and the scattered scenes reflected the vigorous signs of the Tianfeng Empire to a certain extent.

Looking at the dense crowds of people coming and going in the streets and alleys, the sounds of selling and bargaining, and the peaceful and prosperous scene, Duan Lie found that he didn't know when he began to like this feeling, maybe he had stayed in the Wuji Hall for too long and forgot the appearance of his hometown, as soon as there were more people, his heart would be easy to touch.

Duan Lie comforted himself like this, and slowly stepped onto the stone steps in front of the Aubury Auction House.

Daniel and his son spent a lot of thought in order to prepare for this auction, from the door to the auction inside the redecoration, so that the whole door is obviously extraordinarily luxurious and high-profile, the ground is clean and spotless, the smooth marble floor reflects the smooth light, the hall is even more luxurious, from the door into the first thing to see is placed around the more than one person high gilded floor lamp, each floor lamp is inlaid with a huge round lighting crystal, should be the best "star stone" in the lighting crystal The walls of the hall are vivid oil paintings, each of which is lifelike and made by a master, and the ceiling of the hall is carved with the finest carving techniques to engrave as many as 30 kinds of portraits of the god of war, made of rare white jade......

Just looking at the decoration of the hall, Duan Lie couldn't help but marvel, you must know that the materials used in this hall are the best of the best, the most luxurious, if you take gold coins to calculate, it can only be described by the word "massive".

On both sides of the hall stood several maids in special uniforms, and the unified system was represented by pure black, without a trace of variegation, implying Aubury's fame on the mainland: the meaning of the source of darkness, although it seems too simple, but with the style of the hall decoration is to give people a refreshing feeling, Duan Lie is surprised to see.

While he was looking at the decoration of the hall, Daniel had already been informed, and before he could go up the stairs, Daniel, Alaric, and Morpheus came out.

"Duan Lie, you came too early, if it wasn't an auction today, the auction house wouldn't open the door until eight o'clock. Alaric greeted him with a kind face, and it seemed that it was a bear hug, as if the relationship was very good.

In fact, Duan Lie knew that this was an amiable way of expression, to put it bluntly, it was to get closer, and Obery had always been good to himself, he didn't bother to pick it out, patted Alaric on the back, the two separated, and quipped: "No way, I'm a celebrity now, and someone will chase me wherever I go." ”

The words "Haha......" unsurprisingly made the three Daniels laugh, in fact, if it were another person, the three Daniels would probably immediately scold in their hearts for being shameless, but if Duan Lie said this, even if they knew that he was joking, they didn't think that these words were completely used to adjust the atmosphere.

Duan Lie is now a celebrity.

The Heavenly Wind Empire's unprecedented five-line talent warrior and the senior advisor of the Appraiser Alliance Guild who was less than twenty years old, just this title, it is estimated that no one will be able to surpass it in the five hundred years before and after.

A few people chatted casually, and Daniel saw that the time was still quite early and took Duan Lie to the No. 6 VIP room to chat.

Coming to the VIP room, Duan Lie was deeply shocked again, even the decoration of the hall was luxurious, even the corridor outside the VIP room was quite gorgeous, which showed Daniel's carefulness and the deep heritage of the Aubery family.

When they came to the VIP room, the drinks and pastries were already well prepared, and everyone sat down and chatted about the auction when they had nothing to do.

Time passed quickly, and at about half past eight, people walked into the auction house one after another, and at this time, Duan Lie found that Daniel was a little unable to sit still, listening to the noise outside, Daniel always looked back.

Because of the ghost elixir, Duan Lie knew that Daniel attached more importance to this auction, so he said, "Uncle Daniel, you go and get busy, I'll stay by myself for a while." ”

Daniel listened and smiled, and did not get up, but stood at the window and looked out, but his voice did not move, but a look of sorrow and expectation flashed between his eyebrows, and he heard him stand at the window and mutter: "Heh, it has been six years since the Aubury family arrived in the Heavenly Wind Empire, and it is the first time they have encountered this situation, which is really exciting." ”

"Looking forward to it?" Duan Lie was puzzled when he heard it, thinking to himself what is there to look forward to in an auction?

Morpheus laughed slightly and said, "Little Brother Duan Lie, you don't know yet, it's not just the Aubury family that has an auction today. ”

"Huh?" Duan Lie frowned: "Mr. Morpheus, what do you mean ......"

Alaric also stood at the window and continued: "The Marton family, the auction was only announced a few days ago, and it is a coincidence that it is also today. ”

"Grab business?" Duan Lie reacted instantly, and then he understood why Daniel had been on pins and needles since more than eight o'clock, it turned out that the Marton family was also holding an auction today, which was interesting.

This is a clear sign of grabbing business, and the deep meaning behind it is not as simple as grabbing business.

The Marton family acquired the auction house of the Sid family, and it is not surprising that the auction was held to make a name for itself, but it is strange that the auction was held at this juncture, firstly, the two families who held the auction on the same day were equal to real knives and guns in business, and secondly, this was also a means and measure for the Marton family to observe the current situation of the Tianfeng Empire.

The fame of the two families is not small, and the auction is held at the same time, depending on which family the forces participating in the auction are more inclined to.

From his own considerations, the War Spirit Academy and the Marton family are already on opposite sides, and it is impossible for Daniel to stand in line with his peers, and for his own reasons, the Appraiser Alliance Guild will also participate in the auction of the Obury Auction House, which will make it difficult for other families and magnates in the capital.

The current situation is that which one to participate in the auction is equivalent to standing in the team of which family, which is equivalent to making the distribution of the major forces of the Heavenly Wind Empire clear.

Duan Lie felt that if his guess was right, today's competitive auction would definitely change the situation of the entire Heavenly Wind Empire drastically.

The royal family, the wind of the leader, the killer's house, the major mercenary groups...... The time has come to wait for the forces to choose.

But this move obviously has signs of causing a civil war among the imperial forces, and what the royal family will decide when the time comes, is also a thought-provoking question.
