Chapter 166: High Price

M Moser's auction rules have always been anonymous, which simply means that after the auctioneer has given a starting bid, bidders can make anonymous bids through the auction house's arranged staff.

This is also to ensure that there will be no people who spend a lot of money on the auction but become the target of public criticism after getting it, and in the end, not to mention the waste of money, it is possible to put their lives into it.

However, there are always exceptions.

The sudden offer of the Blood Sail Pirates and the declaration that was almost equivalent to "who is in favor and who is against" instantly attracted the attention of the audience, which naturally included Lu Jing.

In the hanging corridor not far from them, a young man with an orange turban embroidered with flowers on his head and a leather coat was stepping on the fence with one foot, and behind him stood a group of imposing men, looking around the scene with the young man's gaze.

No matter how crowded the surrounding crowd was, no one dared to come forward, and there was a gap of more than one meter on the left and right.

Not only that, but as his quotation came out, the originally hot atmosphere around him cooled down a little in an instant.

"It seems that these people with blood sails are quite famous on Muhammad Island, and no one has a hard time with them in this way of offering. ”

Noticing the changes in the surrounding situation, Lu Jing said with some surprise.

This kind of preemptive offer that exposes their identities can only be a shame if it is replaced by an ordinary fleet, but it has caused another effect by changing it to this group of notorious people, that is, they have opened their mouths, making it clear that they are not afraid of things and at the same time warning other people participating in the auction that if they want to rob them of the female mermaid, they must be prepared to be blocked in the port.

After all, the most important thing for the female mermaid is the secret of the Sea Burial City, and if she gets her fleet, she will definitely have to enter the forbidden area, and after leaving Mu Island, whether she can withstand the revenge of the blood sail will have to be weighed carefully.

"Someone in Gu Yunling's team left. ”

While Lu Jing was looking at the people of the Blood Sail Pirates, Xu Xi was paying attention to the movements of Gu Yunling and his group, and his daughter Gu Xiaoyin was no longer by his side at this time.

"60 gold leaves for the first time. ”

Naturally, there is no rule that the auction house is not allowed to make public bids, and the direct doubling of the price has already met Mu Qingling's expectations, so she still took a step forward to announce after a short silence, and just as she was about to say the second time, the auction house staff on the other side spoke decisively.

"70 gold leaves!"

Someone has started bidding, and the act of directly adding 10 gold leaves at one time undoubtedly shows the determination of this bidder.

"If I remember correctly, the Xiao we killed on Blowing Sand Island before, the bounty was only 60 gold leaves, and this female mermaid, 70?"

Just the second offer reached such an astonishing price, Fu Ju couldn't help but mumble in a low voice.

"Xuefan should be a buyout idea, using his own power to forcibly raise the price, just to make others retreat, it is estimated that they didn't expect that someone would have a hard cap, and the price was raised again. ”

Lu Jing looked at the young man whose expression froze at first, and then looked a little angry, under the premise that someone was bidding, it was they who were being put on the shelf now, if they gave up, it would be the Blood Sail Pirates who would be embarrassed!

"80 gold leaves!"

The young man's face was ugly, but he did not hesitate at all, and then added in a loud voice,

"Since you dare to compete with our blood sails and stand up in a way, I want to see who the heroes are!"

This is to use the method of agitation to force people out, and the bidder obviously does not eat this set, as soon as the voice of the offer here falls, the person from the auction house over there immediately speaks,

"85 gold leaves!"

"90 gold leaves!"

......

As the quotes alternately rose, they soon approached triple digits.

"Are they crazy, spending so much money to buy a merman, in case there is nothing in the sea burial city, isn't it a loss of money?"

You must know that Mu Qingling just said that this female mermaid lives near the Sea Burial City and knows how to enter the Sea Burial City, but she doesn't say that she can unlock the secrets in the Sea Burial City, in case she only knows the way to enter the Sea Burial City, in Fu Ju's opinion, this is simply throwing money into the water.

"There is only one possibility, now both sides of the bidding originally had ideas about the Sea Burial City and mastered some of the secrets, buying this female mermaid is not only to increase the success rate of their own treasure hunt, but also to cut off other people's thoughts!"

One hundred gold leaves, for Lu Jing, is already half of his current net worth, but the two competing now, on one side is standing behind the Shuoming Imperial Court, and on the other side is a large pirate group rampant in the Shuoming Sea, these two, no one is short of money!

"Captain, Gu Yunling's side seems to be overwhelmed. ”

At this moment, Xu Chu found that someone next to Gu Yunling leaned over and whispered something, and the latter immediately frowned.

"They still want to rent a boat and equipment from the Mu family, it costs a lot of money here, and we have knocked a sum on the sea before, it is estimated that there is not much left, you go over to see the situation, if necessary, support them." ”

Compared to the Blood Sail Pirates, Lu Jing undoubtedly wanted Gu Yunling to get a female merman, after all, the latter was obviously easier to communicate.

The facts are just as Lu Jing said.

Gu Yunling led the fleet to travel at this time, and the preparation was not sufficient, but the waterspouts encountered at sea inevitably affected their plans, and the remuneration given to Lu Jing, the rest of the official ship and the cost of chartering the ship had consumed a considerable part of the funds, and now they naturally had a little less confidence to compete with Xuefan.

It's just that Lu Jing stepped in sideways, and the situation was immediately different.

Not long after Xu Chu leaned over, he heard the person shouting the price directly quote a number that made everyone lose their voices:

"130 gold leaves!"

Mu Qingling in the Rao is pavilion couldn't help but be a little surprised at this time, and even began to ask the subordinates next to him to verify whether he had said something wrong just now, so that those people mistakenly thought that getting the female mermaid would completely unlock the secret of the sea burial city.

As for the people of the Blood Sail Pirates on the other side, they are already full of anger, it's not that they don't want to bid, but in the end it's not the main ship here, although they just wiped out the two fleets and got a sum of money, but they can't do anything if they want to increase the price further.

"Since we are so willing to make a bid, then we are willing to be an adult, but the weather has been bad recently, and the sea environment outside Muhammad Island is not very good, especially in the restricted area, the wind is high and the waves are fast, remember to be careful when sailing!"

The young man led the people away with a gloomy face, leaving only a word that sent chills down the spine.

There is no doubt that they do not intend to stop there.
