Chapter 220: The Pool of Wealth, the Fountain of Radiance
Night falls.
The lights were lit up, and instead of the sun, the earth was illuminated again. At night, Wafort looks more and more beautiful, not only the lights in the buildings on the streets on both sides of the riverbank, but also the lanterns of the boats on the river, and the swimming lights flow down the river, forming a beautiful river of light in the distance. The hustle and bustle of the day seems to have completely disappeared, replaced by another form, exclusive to the bustle and liveliness of the night.
The carriage walked across Third Avenue and slowly stopped in front of a building at the end of the avenue on bluestone slabs. Soon a well-dressed waiter stepped forward, respectfully opened the door, and then bowed his head to welcome the arrival of the distinguished guest.
Jenn stepped out of the carriage and looked up.
In front of him was a three-story building resembling the Colosseum of ancient Rome, except that compared to the open-air Colosseum, it had an arc-shaped dome. The entire building is brightly lit, and even the fountain in front of it shimmers with golden light, making it look as if it was made of gold at first glance.
The Fountain of Radiance, the Land of Wealth.
This is the storehouse of money, this is the cradle of wealth, and everyone who comes in and out here is a distinguished guest with a lot of money, and their identities should not be underestimated. Of course, Jenn also knew that the Fountain of Radiance was not just a product of the self-amusement of the region, on the contrary, as a place frequented by the nobles of the upper class, the people who were qualified to step into the building were all heads and faces, no exception. To be honest, it was originally as Jenn. It's not easy to get in. After all, although his reputation is enough, this kind of occasion generally needs someone to recommend to be able to touch the threshold of stepping into it. And for Jenn. At present, he has no connections in the Eagle Plateau, so naturally he can't talk about finding someone to recommend him to join. In fact, it was nothing more than an accident -- as a thank you gift from Jenn for sending his men to protect Deli. Pawood Sr. wrote a letter of recommendation, giving Jenn a "membership card" that allowed him to enter and exit the Fountain of Radiance. Of course, this was just a common way of courtesy among the aristocracy, but Jenn knew it wouldn't be that simple. The Fountain of Glory is not only found in Warford, but also in the other two major cities on the Eagle Plateau. And that old immortal deliberately wrote himself a letter of recommendation from Warfour, making it clear that he was going to give Soros that guy eye medicine. But Jenn doesn't care, anyway, both sides use each other and take what they need.
But I'm afraid you can't afford to play............ Old Guy.........
Thinking of this, Jenn withdrew his thoughts. Then he reached into his arms and took out the invitation. The waiter respectfully stretched out his hand to take the invitation, quickly opened it and glanced at the name on it, and then his face changed slightly, and then he saw the waiter bow his head deeply, and bowed respectfully to Jenn.
"On behalf of the Radiant Fountain Chamber of Commerce, I would like to welcome you and hope that you will be able to spend a wonderful evening here, Dear Jenn. Mr. Pachanommens. ”
As he spoke, the waiter turned sideways and made an inviting gesture.
"Please follow me."
Compared to the hustle and bustle outside. The interior of the Radiance Fountain is very quiet, similar to the design of a five-star hotel, with a heavy, plush carpet on the floor. On either side are lanterns adorned with expensive night pearls. The soft light illuminates the dimly lit corridors, making it look as if you are in the clouds. The decorations on display next to it all reveal a luxurious atmosphere.
Elinster's eyes widened in surprise. Curiously stared at the qiē in front of him. Although it is said that their life in the monastery should also be extremely luxurious. But this is not the same as the Fountain of Radiance, which is a kind of cleanliness in the monastery. Otherworldly nobility and elegance. And the Fountain of Radiance represents the deepest desires of human beings. The qiē here is all about enjoying this ultimate goal, and just being in it will make people feel a sweet, dark warmth and temptation.
The entire Radiant Fountain is divided into five layers, of which the lower three floors are for those wealthy merchants and a small and powerful land snake, including some wealthy merchants, as well as the leaders of various organizations, such as thieves, mercenary associations, and other organizations and individuals. The fourth layer in the middle is reserved for those of a certain status, and the top layer is reserved for the most noble guests, such as the patriarchs of the Pawood family. However, since the information in each box is strictly confidential, for most people, they don't know about it.
In fact, according to Jenn's current status, it is more than enough to sit in the box on the top floor. However, since the matter of Passus's independence has not been exposed, Jenn is also happy to pretend. Anyway, for him, this time the auction is just a whim, and it is like taking the whole family out for fun, so it is a matter of course to visit the water park, watch a movie, and then go for a meal. Similarly, now that you've come to Warford, it's not incomprehensible to come and see the Radiant Fountain auction. Of course, there is another reason for Jenn to be here.
For the stolen goods in his hands, it was obviously a rather sensible choice to dispose of them through the guò auction house.
As a well-developed and well-connected city, Warford naturally has a collection of strange treasures from all over the world, although it is not as prosperous as the real big countries, but in terms of its own size, it is quite good. Jenn came to the auction this time to see the excitement, and secondly, to see if he could buy anything interesting. Although as the master of the dungeon, Jenn was also able to plunder a lot of treasures, but unfortunately, due to his identity, he didn't dare to use it. It's like in the Golden City, Jenn has captured the magic sword used by Ecovacs, the Blade Fang, which is quite good, enough to be as handsome as the sea blue light in Jenn's hand. However, Jenn didn't dare to take it out and use it, because everyone knew that the fangs of the blades were the sword of Ecovacs, and now that the city of gold had fallen, if this fangs of the blades suddenly appeared in Jenn's hands, he would definitely be suspicious of the other party. Naturally, Jenn wouldn't do this kind of stupid thing, so the best thing to do is to buy it through a legal channel, which will make things much easier and not worry about being noticed by others.
The Fountain of Radiance arranged a private room on the fourth floor for Jenn and the others, and the whole box looked luxurious and comfortable, with soft and wide sofas, ebony wood furniture, and bearskin carpets all adding a touch of luxury to this room shrouded in soft magical light. In addition, you can also see the various drinks and specialty snacks placed next to it, and the velvet curtains woven with beautiful patterns hang down to the floor, shielding the owner of the room from prying eyes.
On the desk next to it, there was also a brief introduction to the auction items, and seeing this, even Jenn had to sigh that the Radiant Fountain could do such a big thing, and there were indeed a few brushes. Just looking at the design here, it can give people a rather comfortable feeling. From this point of view, the Radiant Fountain is still doing quite well.
At that moment, Enoa walked into the room and closed the door.
"It's done, master."
"How?"
Hearing Enoa's report, Jenn glanced at the crowd below who were bustling and waiting for the auction to begin, and asked casually.
"They are very happy with the gift we have submitted and they have decided to add some lots on a temporary basis, and our lot is also in the middle of it. They didn't ask about the provenance of the lots, and they didn't dwell on our identities. ”
"I knew it."
Hearing this, Jenn shrugged his shoulders. This time he came to the Glorious Fountain as a guest, naturally it was impossible to be empty-handed. In fact, Jenn was well aware that on such occasions, each new member had to come up with a lot to prove his worth. Jenn is no exception, although the things in the City of Gold are not suitable for sale here, but the loot in Jenn's hands is not the only one. In fact, what he entrusted Enoa to take out this time was a small part of the loot that Jenn had taken from the sheep in the city of gray dwarves. These things are very valuable in the dark regions, and the price on the surface naturally becomes more and more expensive. You must know that these are the collection of gray dwarves, in fact, when Jenn first took out those gadgets, the person in charge of the Radiant Fountain almost stared at the eyeballs, which shows that these things are still very marketable on the surface.
Thinking of this, Jenn crossed his hands, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly.
This is a good real yàn, so that you can sell the things on the surface to the underground, and then transport the goods to the surface to sell, so as to make huge profits. (And it's 100% profitable, after all, Jenn is all used to rob...... It's really easier to do without capital than anything else. )
Of course, this also requires more than enough loot......... Well, there are still a lot of hidden goods on the dark elves' side, so there should be no problem. But it's always bad to sit back and eat, and it seems that you have to have a plan for the next step.
Thinking of this, Jenn couldn't help but reach out and gently tap on the tabletop.
Maybe the Mind Flayer's Lair would be a good choice?
Just as Jenn was considering whether to go to the octopus head to make a big purchase, the lights in the entire auction room suddenly dimmed, and then a series of crisp bells rang, and when he heard this bell, the noise from below quickly disappeared. It was only then that Jenn straightened up and looked at the central platform below.
It looks like the auction is going to start soon. (To be continued......)
