Chapter 8 The Auction Begins

Shang Qiu Yuan heard Ye Li's inquiry, nodded, and said, "Ye Gongzi, the auction will start in one hour, and I will lead you to the venue first."

Once you're seated, take a break and it's almost time. ”

Ye Li said: "That's good, business manager, let's go." ”

He didn't have anything to pack, so he followed Shang Qiu Yuan out of the Songzhu Courtyard and walked towards Jujin City.

Today's Jujin City is particularly lively, starting from the city gate, it is already crowded with people.

Shang Qiu Yuan said: "Ye Gongzi, in addition to our Sihui auction today, there are other small shops that have also jointly held a small auction to auction some medium and low-grade goods.

This also attracted a lot of low-level spirit rune masters to participate, so there will be so many talents here. ”

Only then did Ye Li understand the reason why there were so many people here.

As Shang Qiu Yuan walked through the flow of people, the two of them soon came to the auction hall in the center of Jujin City.

At this time, the entire venue was lined up to enter, and it seemed that everyone had their own invitations, and they were not here to participate in the auction temporarily.

The guards standing next to them all looked vigilant, watching out for all possible problems.

Shang Qiu Yuan led Ye Li to bypass the crowd in front of him, passed through the guards, and soon entered the auction hall through a side door.

There are two floors in total, the first floor is the general auction area, the second floor is all VIP private rooms, and the auction stage is at the bottom of the first floor.

The first floor is divided into three auction areas, the area facing the stage and the area on both sides.

"Ye Gongzi, in this auction, there are three ordinary bidding areas, and the middle is facing the auction table, which is where some representatives of the big forces who can't be arranged into the private room sit, which is the A-word bidding area, the area on the left is Area B, and the area on the right is Area C.

There is a number plate on every table, and you need to raise a sign to make an offer when bidding.

The list of participants has been recorded in advance, so there is no mistake about it.

Ye Gongzi, your brand is No. 23, please take a seat. ”

Shang Qiu Yuan said to Ye Li.

Hearing Shang Qiu Yuan's words, Ye Li nodded, and after thanking him again, he walked into the A-word auction area, there were not many people here at this time, and he quickly found his place and sat down.

Soon after he sat down, a man came and made him fragrant tea and served him candied fruit.

The number of people around him began to gradually increase, but Ye Li looked at it casually, it seemed that most of the people around him were older, and there were really not many young people like him.

And after Ye Li looked at the people around him, he suddenly remembered one thing, he actually forgot to change his clothes.

He was still wearing the same linen suit he wore before, and on this occasion, he really looked a little out of place.

And as there were more and more people around him, he seemed more and more abrupt in the crowd.

Secretly scolding himself, Ye Li could only helplessly pick up the teacup and take a few sips, not caring about the strange stares cast from time to time around him.

People came quickly, and the empty seats around him were quickly filled, as did Sections B and C.

Ye Li estimated that there were nearly 300 people in the three bidding areas combined, and there were some private rooms upstairs, and there were really a lot of people participating in the auction.

These people are all representatives from various families or forces, and generally a family or force will only have a representative, which means that the nearly 300 people here represent nearly 300 forces.

After Ye Li thought about it, he was also a little shocked, and couldn't help but sigh at the appeal of the four major chambers of commerce, after all, those who could be invited were all representatives of medium-to-large and large forces.

Representatives of small and medium-sized forces and small forces have gone to another auction.

Many of the representatives of these forces around them are familiar with each other, and they are also sitting in their positions and chatting at this time, only Ye Li seems cold and lonely here, even if the people next to him want to communicate with him, after seeing his sackcloth suit, they also suppressed their thoughts.

Ye Li didn't care about this, he sat at the table and drank tea, and he was also relaxed.

After waiting for about half an hour, everyone finally entered the venue, and the door of the venue was tightly closed.

On the auction booth in front, an old man walked up slowly, saluted towards the three bidding areas and the private room upstairs with a smile on his face, and then said: "Zhu Wenyuan, the old Zhu Chamber of Commerce, on behalf of the four major chambers of commerce, welcomes all distinguished guests.

We invited a total of 303 medium and large families and forces to participate in this auction, covering dozens of surrounding counties.

Of course, there are still many families and forces who were not able to participate in the auction due to special reasons, and I am deeply sorry here.

Okay, without further ado, let's jump right into the subject of this auction......"

Zhu Wenyuan's voice was not loud, but it could be very clearly delivered to the ears of everyone on the upper and lower floors.

Ye Li could feel bursts of wind aura fluctuations coming out of the other party's body, and it was obvious that the other party was using the power of wind to make the sound spread out at will.

“...... First, let's take a look at the first item that appeared today. ”

As his words came out, a beautiful girl walked up to the stage with a large tray in her hand.

The tray is covered with a red cloth that covers the contents of the tray tightly.

The girl walked quickly to Zhu Wenyuan with the tray, Zhu Wenyuan looked at everyone, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first item we auctioned was a talisman.

I think everyone knows that talismans are a very wide range, with ordinary daily necessities, auxiliary combat tools, and even decorative works of art.

And the item we're about to see now is a special talisman that combines art and support combat. ”

While speaking, Zhu Wenyuan stretched out his hand, grabbed the red cloth and lifted it gently, and suddenly a dazzling colorful crystal light appeared in front of everyone.

Ye Li looked at the tray with fixed eyes, and a crystal crown that seemed to be carved from crystal appeared in the tray.

The tiara looks exquisite, and the crystals are illuminated by the surrounding light, giving them a fantastical look.

"This dazzling tiara is called the Strange Crystal Crown, and it's not just a gorgeous appearance, but a real combat support talisman.

It has a rare and powerful property that can help the wearer resist the power of the Soul Walking Charm. ”
