005, reason (first change)
One of the people in charge of the Dingchun Pavilion Auction House was a dark and thin old man, similar in height to Zhai Ling, but he was a little hunched back, with a smile on his face from time to time, and he looked very gentle. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
walked in front of Zhai Ling in a few steps, and did not look down on anything because of Zhai Ling's age, mainly because Zhai Ling's calm appearance also made this old guy a little suspicious of whose son this was.
"This son, the old man is one of the people in charge of Dingchun Pavilion. Just call me Lao Cai. I don't know what Childe said about the baby...... What kind of treasure is it?" Lao Cai was direct, and asked Zhai Ling straight to the point.
But think about it, as a large auction house in [Ten Thousand Demon City], they are very busy, where do they have any spare time to have a cup of tea with customers first.
Zhai Ling smiled slightly, when he said that there was a treasure to be auctioned, he was invited to this elegant room, thinking that he didn't have to spend too much time worrying about what the wall had ears for. I didn't hide it anymore.
Even the Academy cherished the Ice and Fire Heavenly Heart Liquid, so for cultivators in the outside world, it was enough to imagine how precious it would be.
This can also explain why Lao Cai's face changed greatly after seeing the jade bottle in Zhai Ling's hand.
If a normal person sees such a peerless miracle, it is absolutely a lie to say that he is not impressed. But Lao Cai didn't even reveal a trace of greed, which is enough to show that the quality of the employees of Dingchun Pavilion is by no means verbal.
Stunned for a moment, Lao Cai took a deep breath, and then looked at Zhai Ling in shock, who would have thought that such a peerless divine material would appear in such a young boy.
Marveling at Zhai Ling's boldness, Lao Cai also shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said sincerely: "Little brother, this is ...... Definitely a baby. It's just that I can't make up my mind for a treasure of this level, so I have to ask the people above to come forward. You can rest assured that we are a time-honored auction house and will never do anything dishonoring. ”
Zhai Ling nodded gently, and just asked, "How long do you need me to wait?"
Lao Cai hurriedly walked to the table and said, "Just ask for instructions, you don't need a cup of tea." There are excellent Longshan snow teas here, you can try them first, and for distinguished guests like you, these are free. ”
Zhai Ling smiled, "I know, you can go." ”
"Okay, the old body will be back soon. With that, Lao Cai left in a hurry.
Zhai Ling just smiled and tasted the Longshan snow tea that Lao Cai had just brewed.
As for what is good or not, Zhai Ling doesn't mind at all, he can't mind, he doesn't know much about the popular elements of this high society, but if he puts his hidden identity on the table, it won't be long before many super powerful people will rush to him to welcome him to join.
Zhai Ling took a sip, the entrance was slightly bitter, and gradually thickened, as if it had reached a critical point, and a fragrance was quietly revealed, refreshing people's hearts.
This tea is really good.
Zhai Ling leisurely tasted the tea, and his heart slowly flooded, for this time, he knew very well how short it was, and when he went back to the city, he only had ten days left to find Long Eighteen, and then take away the things that Li Ruoxie left there.
Speaking of which, this memory Zhai Ling has been experiencing, but Zhai Ling has not remembered what it is so far, but the sentence in his memory is very interesting.
"Eighteen, I have deposited this thing with you, and in a hundred years I will take it myself if I live, or if not, it will be taken by those closest to me. ”
"Could it be that Li Ruoxie knew that he was going to die, and he calculated that he would come and take out that thing?"
Zhai Ling sighed, how could a person who had reached the status of Li Ruoxie easily guess what he was thinking.
Shaking his head, Zhai Ling tasted Longshan snow tea again.
But at this time, Lao Cai walked in with a more authoritative old man.
"Is this little brother going to auction the Ice and Fire Heavenly Heart Liquid?" The old man had silver hair and strong steps, but there was always a kind of sorrow between his eyebrows, and his eyes looking at Zhai Ling were also a little urgent.
It's quite intriguing.
Lao Cai hurriedly said: "Yes, Elder Wang, it is this little brother." ”
When Wang Lao heard this, he hurriedly greeted him, his face flushed a little, and he said excitedly: "I don't know if the little brother can let the old man take a look." ”
Of course Zhai Ling didn't object, "The old man's words are serious. ”
It was still the jade bottle, Wang Lao looked at it excitedly, and muttered to himself: "Yes, that's it." Finally found!haha! Finally found!"
Just when Zhai Ling didn't know why, it was Wang Lao who said, "I don't know what this little brother is planning?"
Zhai Ling took the jade bottle that Wang Lao was reluctant to hand over, and said with a smile: "You are naturally here to auction." ”
Wang Lao stroked his forehead and smiled: "It's the old man who talks too much." I just don't know what kind of requirements the little brother has for the price?"
"Elder Wang?" Lao Cai was a little puzzled, what happened to Mr. Wang, in the past, the items brought by the distinguished guests were directly evaluated by their auction house, and then went to the auction, why did Mr. Wang ask the customer's opinion first?
Elder Wang waved his hand and motioned for Zhai Ling to speak.
Zhai Ling smiled: "I want to know your valuation first?"
"Estimate?" Elder Wang frowned and pondered, and recalled for a moment: "Fifty years ago, we auctioned it, and the transaction price of a drop of Ice and Fire Heavenly Heart Liquid reached 300,000 Demon Spirit Coins. If it were now...... 600,000 is guaranteed. ”
600,000 Demon Spirit Coins?
Zhai Ling nodded, a drop is enough, he doesn't live in the [Ten Thousand Demon City] permanently, there is no need to exchange for too many demon spirit coins.
"That's it, I'll take a drop at you. ”
It's just that at this time, Wang Lao twisted a little, hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know this little brother...... Can you sell it to me directly? The price is negotiable, and I can guarantee with my personality that I will never be treated badly! How about a million demon spirit coins?"
"Elder Wang, what are you?" Lao Cai was surprised, not only because of Elder Wang's unruly practices, but also because this offer was too high.
Zhai Ling didn't speak, and remained silent.
Wang Lao thought that his offer was too low, gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "One and a half million! This is the limit I can give." How about just buying one drop?"
The 600,000 previously estimated?
And then another million?
And now that's one and a half million?
Not only Zhai Ling, but even Lao Cai, who is familiar with the auction industry, was dumbfounded, is Wang an old man stupid?
Is it possible?
But why did he spend his blood and take out the luxury money just to exchange it for this drop of divine liquid?
I really can't figure it out.
Zhai Ling looked at the old man's eager eyes, saw the deep folds on his face, and asked aloud, "Can you tell me a reason?" I just want a reason. ”
