Chapter 1514: Sanjiang City Auction
When I went to the auction house in Sanjiang City, I realized what the five-story building looked like.
It is an internal decoration like a pagoda, that is, the middle of the first to fifth floors is hollowed out, just like the current shopping mall.
From the second floor to the fifth floor, guests can look down from a high vantage point.
The first floor is an auction table, and the auction items are raised from the basement floor to the top with a lifting platform.
No wonder the residence of the VIP should be arranged on the second basement floor, which was originally used for auction.
On the second to fifth floors, the six floors are divided into small boxes one after another, with numbers on the side of the boxes, and only a small window on the boxes.
Inside, the VIPs can look down at the bidding from the windows, and even the auction house has special binoculars that can be carefully viewed from the windows.
Of course, before the auction of the bids, there is also a catalogue in each box, which is the main treasure to be auctioned in this auction, what are the characteristics, and so on.
But the amazing thing is that only 80 percent of the exhibits are displayed in the catalog, which means that there are still 20 percent of the exhibits that are not published.
This is what Bai Ye told me, there are two general reasons, one is that every auction is like this, leaving suspense, so that every auction is covered with a layer of mystery, so that the old customers of the auction have to come in person every time, if you don't come, then I'm sorry, there are good things you missed.
Another reason may be that these auction items cannot be disclosed, and as for the reasons why they cannot be disclosed, there are many kinds of reasons, such as the unknown origin of the exhibits, or the fact that the exhibits are not willing to be too high-profile to be public.
I asked Bai Ye specifically about the reason, and Bai Ye gave me an example, like a person who had a prominent family background before, and he used to be extremely beautiful, but suddenly one day he was down, and he needed to take out the treasures of his family and sell them to pay off the money or relief, which was a very shameful thing.
So although these people are down, they still can't save face, and even ask the auction house to keep it secret for them and not allow public information.
But some people have something in their house, which has long been circulated in the circle and is well known, once you take out this thing and sell it, then everyone knows that it belongs to your family.
The floor where Bai Ye and I are located is the third floor, and the box number is 320.
From the bottom to the top, the higher the floor, the more noble the status.
In other words, Bai Ye, the city lord of the six-grade city, can only be ranked in the third layer, and he can't go up or down.
I looked up at the fourth and fifth floors above my head, who were the people in these boxes, could they all be the city lords above the five-rank city?
I originally wanted to sense it, but I was worried that there would be a power above the Golden Immortal in it, and I didn't know how to die when the time came.
And just after drawing the sonic boom symbol, his mental power has been greatly reduced.
So instead of sensing it, he glanced at it hastily, and then took the telescope and looked around.
It was found that the seats were full, and there were people in every box.
"Who are these people upstairs?" I asked Xiang Baiye.
Bai Ye smiled slightly and said four words: "Powerful." ”
I think it's right, power is the first place, including this white night, not also relying on the power of the prince.
There must be many of the above people who rely on the power of the crown prince.
At this time, the shopkeeper who presided over the auction walked to the middle of the first floor, bowed down to the VIPs from all directions, smiled all over his face, and then hugged his fists and said: "Welcome VIPs from all over the world to the auction of my Sanjiang City auction. ”
The audience was silent, without any sound.
The shopkeeper continued: "Our auction in Sanjiang City, I dare not say that it is the largest in the entire Jiuding Continent, but it is definitely one of the most influential auctions, although the scale can not be regarded as the largest, but the competing items we auction in each auction are very representative of the boutique, which is also the magic weapon for our auction house to be able to stand in the forefront of Jiuding auctions." ”
The shopkeeper paused slightly, controlled the rhythm, and then said: "This time coincides with the return of the earth to the Jiuding Continent, the foreign affairs staff of our auction house went out to purchase a lot of local specialties on the earth, you must know that the earth that has just landed, the temperature is surprisingly high, and it is very unstable, there are powerful monsters everywhere, this time our procurement staff paid a heavy price in order to get back these competing products, here, I only represent the Sanjiang City Auction House, to express my most sincere respect to these foreign affairs staff." ”
"Alright, all the boxes are full today, thank you for your support, I announce that our auction has officially begun, and now we invite our first exhibit. The shopkeeper had just finished speaking.
With a bang, a door suddenly opened on the ground not far away, and then a booth slowly rose, the booth was covered with a red cloth, everyone looked at the red cloth, and some people even watched with binoculars, as if the red cloth was covered with a bride, and they all wanted to see it.
The shopkeeper walked to the edge of the booth and introduced with a slight smile: "Old friends who are familiar with our auctions know that the highlight of each of our auctions will be the first and last few competing items, of course, this time is no exception. ”
He also made a small sale, and then said: "This is a core crystal nucleus from the earth's underground......"
With that, the shopkeeper pulled down the red cloth, revealing a glittering stone.
"Even if I don't say it, everyone should understand what this thing is? A planet can support the survival of living things, first of all, the planet must have temperature, and the star core is the foundation of the planet, the star core of the earth is relatively special, it has been broken into countless fragments, many of them have melted the rocks and fused into magma, this time our personnel found a star core fragment from the extremely hot and terrifying magma. ”
"The size of this star core fragment is not small, and the energy contained in it is considerable, whether it is used for cultivation or forging immortal weapons, it is an excellent material, the starting price is one million immortal crystals, and the price increase is ten thousand immortal crystals each time, start now. ”
"Two hundred, one million. The shopkeeper called out the number of the box, because someone at the number 100 had raised a sign, and the number and the amount of the auction were lit up in the window.
Everyone looked at the second floor, and the second floor all started with two, the third floor with numbers starting with three, and so on.
"Four hundred and thirteen, two million!" said the shopkeeper excitedly, "directly increase the price by one million." ”
"Four hundred and twenty, three million. "It's the same four-layer, and the two numbers are not far apart, and a million have been added again.
Bai Ye squinted, staring intently at the fragment of the star core.
"I didn't expect to find such a treasure in the magma, but I didn't expect that the temperature of the magma is all the energy obtained from these crystal nuclei......" I said with a wry smile: "Why didn't I think of going to find it before?"
"Sir, this thing is really hard to come by, and if the earth doesn't land, no one will be able to get this fragment. Bai Ye replied to me.
