Chapter 665: Born to Work Hard!
PS: I bowed down and thanked the book friends "Shadow Sniper", "ckey_lee", "Wang Xiucai" and "Undead Foodie" for their rewards~!
After Don and David left the auction, Harry naturally withdrew. However, they did not leave the auction room, but went to the backstage with the service staff to pay for the goods.
The backstage of the auction hall is quite humane, divided into different cubicles, which should be to avoid the scene where the two sides who were desperately bidding just now meet awkwardly.
But what they don't know is that Don doesn't care about this at all, and even if they can meet, he will have a verbal fight with Harry, showing the shameless spirit of 'losing the person does not lose the battle'. Of course, it's also to add some talking point to people who are interested in watching jokes, after all, it still depends on their mouths to spread it in the future......
Tang En paid three thousand gold coins to get the bejeweled bracelet back, and it was the only serious thing they bought tonight. In fact, Tang En only had a total of 10,000 gold coins on him, and what seemed to be a lot of gold tickets that he had caught before was actually a small denomination of gold tickets. It's just a show, and of course Don knows that it is impossible to pay directly at the auction......
As for the five million paid by Harry, it is a real golden ticket, which is the premise to ensure the smooth implementation of Jihua tonight, and it is also all the liquidity of the Yatang Chamber of Commerce in the city!
Immediately, as soon as Harry left with the ancient book of the ghost talisman, Don disguised himself as the owner of the book, the adventurer, to collect the auction proceeds. This money still has to be returned to the Yatang Chamber of Commerce in the city, after all, if a huge chamber of commerce does not have a little liquidity, it is likely to have a big problem.
The auction house didn't play a trick on this. Five million gold coins is a lot though. But for the reputation of the chain auction house that is making money every day. It's still not worth mentioning. What's more, they also got a lot of benefits, and the rule of collecting five percent of the total auction amount of the items allowed them to get a full 250,000 gold coins!
To sum up, it was a campaign worth 5 million yuan, which cost 250,000 yuan in advertising money, and then ignited the fuse that shook the mainland in the future......
No matter how he thought about it, Don felt that he had made a fortune this time! Not everyone thinks that way......
......
After this was settled, Don En left Shanhai City with the members of the gray space on the same day. Immediately, the things that came out of the auction hall slowly began to ferment and spread......
As Don had expected, the people present at the time didn't even wait for the auction to end, and they couldn't wait to leave the auction hall to share the joyful slap in the face with their friends and family.
I have to say that this story is still quite fascinating, especially when the details are constantly dug up...... Looking down on Master Marsieman? Saying that the classic painting of Starry Sky is Rotten Tomatoes? It cost 3,000 gold coins to buy a bracelet worth a few hundred? Offering 4.5 million gold coins for this inexplicable book? And it is not as good as others, being slapped in the face in public......
There is no shortage of everything! A delightful story was born!
At first, this story first spread quickly in the aristocratic circle of Shanhai City. Everyone has the mentality of looking ugly. Most people's attitude is naturally sarcastic, after all, it is not uncommon for two stupid nouveau riche to appear, but it is rare to reach the ultimate realm of Don and David. Of course, there were also those who talked about the old book, which was worth five million anyway, and I knew that the book was unusual......
There are laughs, and there are suspense! In response to this heated discussion, this happy story quickly spread to the whole city, and then the matter reached a small high tide after it appeared in the newspapers of Shanhai City the next day, and spread to the whole north at a terrifying speed......
What? exaggeration?
You must know that the entertainment life of the other world is already poor, and even the aristocracy cannot play any new tricks. The rumor of a noble young woman's affair can cause a heated discussion in the whole city, not to mention this favorite face-slapping plot, everyone is running for it to tell each other, and get the pleasure of sharing and watching jokes.
Of course, there is indeed a pair of big hands behind such a rapid transmission speed, that is, the secret agency that received Tang's orders. To say that they didn't do much, they just added fuel to the fire, but they did push the idea to the point because they were originally from propaganda, such as quickly stabbing this matter to the city propaganda hall and appearing in the next day's newspaper......
Moreover, this is just a part of the propaganda, which first aroused the strong attention of the public to watch the lively mentality. After the situation cools down a little, some rumors about the broken cheats will be released, and Zuihou will find two corpses that resemble nouveau riche and come out, and they look like the kind of murdered ones......
Don't think about it, as soon as the two nouveau riche die, everyone will look at the chubby businessman and think that he is revenge after the fact. At this point, the point comes, will some people think that he will choose revenge? because he overpaid the money, or because he wants to cover up something but is helplessly magnified...... It doesn't matter, there are always the most people in the world who claim to be smart, and as long as they give a vague hint, they can give a seemingly extremely convincing answer.
At that time, a whole set of jihua will come down, and the object of everyone's heated discussion will shift from those two nouveau riche to the ancient cheats...... And that's what Don really wants to achieve!
People's hearts are unpredictable, this sentence is true. However, from another point of view, this sentence also reveals that people's hearts are changeable and easily affected by various subjective and objective factors. Such as the deception of authority, such as the self-suggestion of conformity......
Of course, this is a later matter, and it has nothing to do with Don now, in fact, he is back in Coldwater City now.
The old man in brown had already left Coldwater City, and his whereabouts were also under the surveillance of the members of the gray space, but perhaps because he was being followed, he was now hiding in a bounty hunter guild in a small city, and there was no major movement.
This is naturally a situation that Don En doesn't want to see, but this matter is really not in a hurry, after all, he can't force the other party to lead the way. Of course, Tang En also had a way to deal with this, that is, to make David and the others pretend that they had no intention of sweeping the bounty hunter guild, and then put pressure on the other party from time to time, forcing him to take the initiative to lead the way......
It's a patient job, like casting a net to catch a fish, you always have to waste some time to get the catch.
So Don thought that after this war, he would be able to recuperate. But the truth is that as soon as he returned to the contact point of the secret agency of Coldwater City, before he could sit down in his chair and rest, a figure rushed in front of him with dissatisfaction and anger.
"Mr. Donn, I've been with you for a whole week, but during all this time, you have not done anything we agreed to except run around in vain. I would like to ask, where is the promise you made before? Is it that I didn't see it, or do you think that we just need to sit here and the evil shili of the Temple of Light will be purified and punished!"
Tang En was a little dazed by this series of questions that split his head and covered his face, looked at the angry Raymond in front of him in a daze, and subconsciously touched his nose: "Promise...... Uh, what's the promise?"
"You ......" Raymond suddenly became angry when he heard this, and his body trembled a little.
Fortunately, at this time, Don finally reacted, pulled Raymond to sit down first, and then handed over a cup of tea to gag the other party's mouth first. Then he rubbed his forehead, a little nerve-wracking.
Don had indeed made a promise before to strike at the Temple of Light based on the ugly shady curtain provided by Raymond. But now that things have come together, and the prototype of the killer organization has not yet been figured out, Tang En naturally chooses to put this matter aside for now.
After appeasing Raymond for a few words, it didn't have much effect, Don thought about it, his heart suddenly moved, and he raised his eyebrows and asked: "I remember that your father has some enemies, it's that bishop, what's his name......"
"Vitegar, the former Bishop of the Blue Tile City Church!" Raymond said without hesitation.
"yes, that's it. Well, do you know where he is now?"
Shaking his head, "He left Qingwa City more than ten years ago, I only know that he was promoted, but I don't know the specific location." Well, what are you asking for?"
"It's okay if you don't know, it's easy to find out if you know the name...... Don nodded, smacked his lips and said, "That's it, I'll help you avenge this father-killing revenge first, how about it?"
Raymond frowned when he heard this: "Mr. Donne, I said that revenge is secondary, and the restoration of the pure faith of the Temple of Light is the most important thing, and this is also my father's last wish!"
"I know...... But it's not a conflict, is it?" Donn spread his palms, "Navi...... Oh, Vitega is a representative of the evil shili of the Temple of Light, and we are also purifying the faith by exposing his crimes to the public so that he can be punished as well, isn't it?"
Raymond was stunned when he heard this, and he groaned for a while, and couldn't help but slowly nod in agreement, but his expression was still a little reluctant: "But the effect of this is too small......"
"Ha, so be it. Don hurriedly waved his hand to interrupt Raymond's words and shouted out the door, "Come two people, let me investigate a clergyman named Vitegar." ”
After a pause, he turned his head to Raymond and said solemnly, "Trust me, Mr. Raymond, I am a professional! There are many ways to take revenge, and what I bring you is not only the pleasure of revenge, but also the Temple of Light will have a considerable shock for this!"
Raymond was stunned: "Okay, I'll wait and see......"
"Rest assured...... Someone, hurry up, send Mr. Raymond to rest. ”
To put it mildly, Don finally sent the hot-blooded Raymond out of the door, and then sat back in the chair with a long sigh of relief, covered his forehead, and smiled wryly: "I was born to work hard......"
