Chapter 165: What Are You Looking?
Early in the morning.
Different from the bustle of other places in the city, the gate of Wanbao Pavilion has long been crowded with people from all over the world.
These warriors hung long swords on their waists and carried long knives on their bodies, or inconspicuous, or dressed in strange costumes, some in groups of three or five, and some alone, all waiting for the Wanbao Pavilion to open to welcome guests.
Dao Yuan, Lei Luo, and Youyou, the three of them, stood on the edge of the outermost part and watched.
"The carved beams and painted buildings, the eaves and arches built by this Wanbao Pavilion are resplendent and gilded, and it is indeed the largest auction house in the first city, and the momentum is really different!" Lei Luo couldn't help but admire.
You glanced at him: "Look at your appearance that you haven't seen the world!"
Lei Luo pouted: "That's why I want to come to see and see!"
Dao Yuan frowned: "What is the thing in this auction? There are so many people coming. ”
Lei Luo said: "Of course, there are many things, but the best one is said to be a skin of a lightning beast. ”
Yu Yu exclaimed in a low voice: "The lightning beast is a ninth-grade beginner spirit beast, and it is said that its speed is unimaginably fast. If it weren't for the fact that it was weaker in terms of combat effectiveness, it would definitely not be this ranking! But even so, if it was replaced by the strength of a human being, it would also be the existence of the pinnacle of the Chongyang Realm. Who the hell has the ability to catch it!"
Lei Luo said: "In my opinion, your father and my father-in-law have this ability." ”
Dao Yuan was noncommittal, thought about it, and said, "On the contrary, I really want to know what is recorded on that animal skin." ”
"Simple, let's go in and have a look. ”
......
In the expectant eyes of everyone, the golden door was finally opened with a 'squeak', and an old man with a bit of fairy wind and bones walked out with a few subordinates.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. The old man saluted the crowd with his fists and said loudly.
There were people in the crowd who knew the old man, and they couldn't wait to shout: "Mr. Ding, don't talk about it, everyone has been waiting for a long time, let's let everyone in." ”
As soon as this remark came out, many people immediately echoed it.
Mr. Ding swept his eyes left and right, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, everyone, but there are some things that I still have to explain to you." ”
Seeing that everyone was looking at him intently, Mr. Ding nodded with satisfaction, cleared his throat, and said, "Here, Lao Yu first represents Wanbao Pavilion, and welcomes all friends from the rivers and lakes. ”
"Secondly, I am here to confess to you. In view of the large number of people coming this time, we will divide the items to be auctioned this time into two categories, and those who wish to bid for ordinary items should enter the door and go to the hall on the right. If you are bidding for high-end items, enter the door and go to the lobby on the left......"
Before he finished speaking, someone in the crowd shouted: "What does this mean? Could it be that Wanbao Pavilion still treats guests into three, six, nine, and so on? We came all the way to see those rare things, and now you are acting like this, what kind of reason is this!"
The person who said this was an ordinary man, probably a little shy in his pocket, so he was a little dissatisfied with this practice.
Of course, everyone understood the meaning of Wanbao Pavilion, and many people made an uproar.
Almost without thinking about it, Mr. Ding also knew what the identity of these people was, but as the master, some words were difficult to say clearly, so he had to explain: "Everyone be quiet, please listen to the old man." ”
"The reason why there is such an arrangement is really because of our difficulties. At the same time, it is also for everyone's sake. ”
"Most of you have come all the way to buy some things you need, and the number of things in this auction is large and the quality is uneven, so we classify them mainly so that we don't waste everyone's time and can get what you want as soon as possible. And there are fewer competitors, and the odds of getting a clap are naturally greatly improved. ”
"Of course, if you have friends who just come to see those high-end items, it is not impossible, as long as you pay 30,000 taels of silver in advance, you can enter the high-end items auction hall. ”
There was an uproar in the crowd.
Wanbaoge did this, of course, not only purely for the convenience of everyone, but also to take the opportunity to make money is the most important thing.
There are at least three or four hundred of these people who have already arrived, and if they all go to the high-end auction hall, then Wanbao Pavilion can earn more than 10 million taels of silver out of thin air.
That's a lot of money.
Such a effortless and lucrative thing is really bad for them to be able to think of.
For those who are rich, thirty thousand taels is certainly nothing.
But for some ordinary martial artists, even if the money will not go bankrupt, it is also a very painful thing to give away for nothing.
The so-called big customer bullying the store, the store big bullying the customer, at this time Wanbao Pavilion is the latter.
There is no way, who calls it the largest auction house, with a good reputation, many things, wide connections, and great influence, but these points are not comparable to other places.
Mr. Ding smiled: "The old man just conveys the decision of the top, as for how to choose, it is everyone's own business." It's not too early, and I'm going to prepare for the auction later, so please feel free to do so. ”
After saying that, he bowed his hand to everyone slightly, turned around and walked in.
Those few men walked into the door and stood at the entrance of the hall on the left, and the posture was obvious, who wanted to come in and pay for it.
The crowd began to riot, some whispered, some were proud, but the most were secretly scolding their mothers.
"Damn, Lao Tzu licked blood with his knife, injured himself under the sword, and worked hard to accumulate some silver, did it become an entrance fee for nothing? I can't even see a fart?
"I'm really rubbing! What the hell are these rules! Wanbaoge's family has a big business, how can you still make this one?! Even if you want to go crazy for money, you won't be so shameless!"
"Your uncle's! If it were me, I would grit my teeth and pinch my nose to admit it, but in order to pretend to be forced, it seems that I have brought a few juniors to grow up in knowledge, you say, this silver can't be let out of it! Lao Tzu really poured eight lifetimes of big blood mold!"
"Forget it, forget it, we poor ghosts, our arms can't twist our thighs, since people have this rule, we have to follow it. You can't come all the way and go back without even entering the door......"
“......”
“......”
While many people were insulting, someone had already stepped in, left and right.
The rich and the poor are undoubtedly evident at this moment.
"It's really people's hearts are not ancient, and the world is declining! In these years, you can't even enter a door without money!" Lei Luo shook his head and sighed, and then said, "Boss, let's go in too." ”
He knew that Dao Yuan didn't like to be lively, so he waited for the people to enter almost before he spoke.
I didn't want the three of them to come to the entrance on the left, but one of the men stretched out his hand to stop them, and didn't speak, just looked at them with his eyes, and there was a bit of contempt on his expression.
Lei Luo suddenly became angry, and glared: "What are you looking at?"
Maybe it was because a few people were looking at the wrong door, or maybe there was a powerful master who was different, the man said lightly: "Several, Mr. Ding has already said it very clearly just now, so I don't need to repeat it." Since you are in this together...... a total of ninety thousand taels of silver. ”
Lei Luo tilted his head: "Wait, put aside the silver matter for now, I want to ask you, what did you mean by that expression just now?
The man: "I didn't mean that. ”
"Hmph, that's what you mean!"
"Friend, are you here to bid, or are you here to find fault?"
"Yohe, what do you mean, do you still want to do it?"
The man was expressionless: "If it's a guest, of course we welcome it, but if you come to make trouble, then it's another matter." ”
Lei Luo wanted to say more, but Dao Yuan patted him: "Don't delay time." ”
"This is 100,000 taels, don't look for it!" Lei Luo stopped hatefully, took out a few silver tickets and handed them over.
When the man reached out to take it, he deliberately pretended not to hold it, and the silver ticket fell to the ground dangling.
"I'm sorry, I'm a timid person, and I'm afraid that my hands will be unstable, so I'd better trouble you pick it up yourself. Lei Luo raised his eyebrows and followed Dao Yuan into the hall.
Only those few subordinates were left, looking at the backs of a few people with an iron face.
