Chapter Forty-Six: The Seven Absolute Shields
Lin Fengjin, as a local snake, naturally got the charter of Xiangfan Qianzhuang's sale this time early, and this time the sale will last for a full ten days, why does it last so long? It is because the first seven days were all tasting.
Because the things sold this time have been piled up for three years, and it is not only Xiangfan Qianzhuang itself, there are also many people who have the need to sell, so in the first seven days, all the items participating in the auction will be taken out and placed for those who need to buy to see carefully at close range, to determine whether they need it, and then the last three days will be auctioned directly.
In this way, it can not only give buyers enough time to identify, or even raise money, but also allow the seller's goods to have sufficient display space, which is a win-win situation.
Lin Fengjin got a list of items to be exhibited at this time, and the classification alone is very amazing, first of all, it is divided into seven categories, namely:
Mounts, weapons, armor, magic weapons, medicines, materials, and unknown strange objects.
Then these seven categories of auction items will be re-subdivided according to the previous appraised value, which are priceless, fine, superb, and ordinary.
Among them, the priceless auction items will be specially set aside in an area, which is heavily guarded, and those who want to enter the museum must pay a deposit of 100,000 taels of silver per person in addition to the ticket of 50 taels of silver, or the equivalent of the goods.
And this deposit is strictly calculated according to the capitation, for example, Lin Feng paid a deposit of 100,000 taels of silver, but it is impossible to bring two servants in, if you must bring people, then you have to take 300,000 taels of silver.
The same is true for boutiques, superbs, and ordinary auction items. You must have a deposit to enter, but it is a grade that will definitely be lowered accordingly, and ordinary auction items also require a deposit of fifty taels of silver, and a ticket of one or two silver.
It is worth mentioning that all unknown strange objects are included in the best grade, and will not be auctioned, but directly sold in the same way as the store, but the individual price of each unknown strange object is relatively expensive, but buyers can also use the method of buying multiple pieces at one time to thin the cost.
For example, an ancient tile that is difficult to determine the age may be priced at 500 taels of silver, but if you are willing to buy a few more unknown and strange objects with a price tag of 500 taels of silver. It is likely to be three pieces of silver for one thousand taels of silver, or even seven pieces for two thousand taels of silver, and the more you buy, the cheaper you will be.
Most of the people who came to the sale came from thousands of miles away, so they could not watch it because of some ticket money?
This Xiangfan Money Village has come up with such a large scale. Although it may seem like hard work, in fact, the ticket money alone is a lot of money. It can be seen that Lin Feng is not the only one in this world who is economically minded. You can do everything you can to make money.
In fact, Lin Feng asked himself if he got another Xiangfan money village, he knew that he couldn't do it, because his personal planning and coordination ability could not support such a huge economic consortium, which shows that there are also masters in this world.
On the first day of the official start of the appreciation stage of the sales fair, Lin Fengjin happened to visit Qin Yong, a fellow servant in the Nanzheng officialdom - although this fellow disciple was forty years older than him, he was also a disciple of Wang Yangming. By the way, he was invited to hang a pair of calligraphy and paintings on his "unspeakable".
This Lord Qin heard about Lin Fengjin from the rest of the junior brothers, and knew that this little junior brother was really a popular person in the sect, and even though he was out of the school, he had to take care of him. I can only agree with a wry smile.
So Lin Fengjin only went to this sale the next day to see what was good to sell, he was clear about the auction rules, and he knew that the first seven days were for people to taste, and the last three days were the official meat, so he was there to go early and late, so he was not in a hurry.
However, although yesterday's peak of crowds had passed, when Lin Fengjin rushed there at this time, he still felt that he was almost sinking in the sea of people. After finally entering the door, Lin Fengjin relied on the VIP card obtained by Li Hu and finally wiped his sweat and entered through the side door.
This Xiangfan Qianzhuang is indeed doing a good job in various details, after Lin Fengjin was led to a quiet room, there was actually a good red robe to drink, and the forbidden room was also lit with curling sandalwood, sweeping away the hustle and bustle outside, and there was a young and beautiful maid next to him to receive him, which would not make people feel lonely at all.
It didn't take long for the lady to rush over, there was a slight sweat next to her temples, she was stunned when she saw Lin Fengjin, and immediately smiled:
"I also said that a distinguished guest must need a little woman to receive him, and it turned out to be Lin Gongzi. I heard that Gongzi spent a lot of money in Donglin Academy, and a good horse with the blood of a heavenly horse said that he would be killed, and if it was handed over to our money bank to sell, three or four hundred thousand taels of silver would be within reach. ”
Lin Fengjin is not a poor boy who first came to Xiangdu at this time, although the affairs of Xiangfan Qianzhuang are secret, but the relationship network he arranged at this time is also extraordinary, as if it is a spider web, involving more than 100 large and small court officials, such detection is by no means idle.
Therefore, of course, the internal principals of Xiangfan Qianzhuang are usually served by some retired high-ranking officials and family members, such as this middle-aged beautiful woman surnamed Wang, who should be the concubine of the previous Hubu Shangshu.
So Lin Fengjin smiled and said-for-tat:
"Hu Shangshu is in good health, his old man is eighty-five this year, and he usually eats less honey so as not to be in good health. ”
The face of the steward of the beautiful woman king suddenly froze, and the smile became very unnatural, she never expected that Lin Fengjin's intelligence source would be so accurate, and even her own family history was investigated clearly.
Lin Fengjin didn't come here to be angry with people, so he took the opportunity and smiled:
"It's been three years since the last sale, I wonder what good things Lu Dao Qian Zhuang has saved?"
Steward Wang immediately pulled out of the embarrassing situation and said with a smile:
"Then it depends on what Lin Gongzi needs?"
Lin Feng said respectfully:
"I need a weapon in my hand now, I can hold it with one hand, and I am also interested in the rest of the talisman treasures, and I also need some strange things. ”
Steward Wang smiled:
"Lin Gongzi's hobbies are so extensive, it seems that he will take good care of the business of the small shop this time. ”
Lin Feng said meaningfully:
"Then it's up to you to see if you have something that makes my heart flutter. ”
Steward Wang beckoned a small servant and said:
"Go and call the Hu Ledger Room. ”
After a while, Hu Ledger came over, and he was a middle-aged scribe with a tall figure and a quiet temperament.
Steward Wang said:
"This Hu bookkeeper has amazing eyesight, participated in the appraisal and valuation of this weapons auction, and is a talent that we rely on very much. ”
Hu Shufang bowed slightly, and he didn't dare to say it. Lin Feng saw that this Hu accountant was neither humble nor arrogant, and immediately knew that this person had a few brushes, so he said:
"Are there any famous weapons on sale this time?"
Hu Ledger Road:
"Many, just the weapons on the Divine Weapon Spectrum, there are four of them, namely the fifty-third ranked Kaitian, the sixty-seventh ranked Toushan Cold Spear, the seventy-one ranked Cloud Fan, and the seventy-fourth ranked Golden Spider Silk Whip. ”
Lin Feng said respectfully:
"What kind of weapon is Kaitian?"
"One-handed axe. Hu Ledger said: "The last master of Kaitian was the big man of Xirong, Duogu, who had amazing divine power, holding Kaitian in his left hand, but holding the famous Seven Absolute Shields that he made himself in his right hand, attacking and defending, and running rampant in the world for 30 years! If Duogu had not died that year, the throne of Xirong would probably have changed hands. ”
"These seven unique shields are divided into seven layers, the first layer is pure steel, the second layer is the unique iron pine plank on the snow peak of the Tianshan Mountains, the third layer is the special black stone slab chiseled from the King Kong Mountain on the Duogu territory, the fourth layer is the rattan shield woven in oil with hundred-year-old rattan in the Nanzhao region, the fifth layer is the flesh and blood shield that flattened two slaves alive with two stone slabs, and the sixth layer is spun out of high-quality cotton in Guanzhong and pressed out after soaking. ”
"The real Seven Absolute Shields are Duogu's wife Ma Wen, who uses her own ice magic power to freeze these six materials together to make a one-person tall ice giant shield, six kinds of materials plus cold ice, so it is called Seven Uniques, and the ice magic power attached to it can be maintained for a month even if it is in the middle of summer, of course, the weight of this shield must be extremely terrifying, not to mention that it has to be carried into battle! Only Duogu's innate divine power can use it freely and rush to kill in the midst of ten thousand armies for an hour!"
Lin Fengjin was also very absorbed when he heard it, and couldn't help but say:
"How could such a fierce man lose all his weapons? Is there anyone who can break through the defenses of his shield? In my opinion, even if a siege vehicle or trebuchet hits him head-on, it is estimated that it will be difficult to kill him, right? Don't say that he was assassinated on his own turf?"
Hu Shufang shook his head and said:
"Duo Gu did not have any regrets before he died, he was killed in a head-to-head duel, and the person who killed him was Shen Boyang, one of the seven generals of the David Dynasty that year, this person pierced through the Seven Absolute Shields with one blow, and the second blow passed through the gap above the Seven Absolute Shields and pierced into Duo Gu's throat. Because the weapon held by Shen Boyang was the same artifact as the snake swallowing! It's just that Shen Boyang also spent a lot of energy controlling the artifact, and then he was killed by Ma Wen's suicide, turned into an ice demon breath and rolled into his body, and turned into an ice sculpture three days later. ”
Lin Fengjin thought of the situation at that time, and couldn't help but feel a little excited, on the battlefield with a shocking sound of killing, the violent barbarian head man with natural divine power met the calm and decisive general, the two fought to the death, and the most barbarian head man laughed wildly and fell down to the sky, and the general also turned into an ice sculpture and died suddenly! This is the heroic beauty of war, the beauty of killing, and the beauty of cruelty! (To be continued......
