Cao Ke didn't bother the middle-aged man's research on mobile phones, but leisurely picked up the teapot on the coffee table, poured himself a bowl of tea, and slowly tasted it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

After a long time of incense, the middle-aged man excitedly put down the mobile phone in his hand, raised his head, looked at Cao Ke, and said eagerly: "I don't know this ...... of Childe What is this thing called?"

Cao Ke elegantly put down the teacup in his hand and responded, "It's called a mobile phone." ”

"Mobile phone?" The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "This name is quite appropriate." So, what is the reserve price of your mobile phone that Childe plans to mark?"

Cao Ke smiled noncommittally when he heard this: "According to Mr., how much is my mobile phone worth?"

It's not that Cao Ke doesn't want to set his own price, it's that Cao Ke doesn't know the value of money in this world. Although Red Sleeves had already explained to him yesterday, Red Sleeves' simple way of explaining could only let Cao Ke know that 80,000 gold coins was indeed not a small amount, but it could not make Cao Ke's heart completely, completely, clearly, and clearly establish a value system. Therefore, at this time, Cao Ke had no choice but to throw the right to set the price of his mobile phone to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man thought for a moment and said, "In my opinion, although Childe's mobile phone is very powerful, it is just a tool for recreation after all, and its own practicality cannot be compared with those things that are helpful for cultivation...... So, if I were to mark the price, I would mark the auction reserve price of this mobile phone at 100,000 gold coins, I don't know what Gongzi wants?" After speaking, the middle-aged man looked at Cao Ke cautiously and observed his expression.

"100,000 ?......" Cao Ke groaned slightly, then nodded and said: "Okay, 100,000 is 100,000, anyway, this is a reserve price, if someone really likes my mobile phone, he will also raise the price." ”

When the middle-aged man saw that Cao Ke had agreed to his offer, he suddenly let out a long breath. In fact, the reserve price of middle-aged people is not kind, in our world, mobile phones are just a daily necessities, but, in their world, Cao Ke's mobile phone is absolutely the only existence in the world, among them, whether it is the camera function, or the camera function, etc., are people in their world, can not dream of it.

Even if it is true, as the middle-aged man said, this mobile phone can only be used for recreation, but for this world, the value of this mobile phone is definitely more than 100,000 gold coins. Think about it from another perspective, mobile phones are to this world what antiques are to our world. In addition to some archaeological value, the only role of antiques is only reflected in the collection, the value of antiques, depends on the rarity of the antique, not on its role, however, who dares to say that antiques are not valuable?

Therefore, this middle-aged man gave a reserve price of 100,000 yuan, and he himself was still quite worried, for fear that Cao Ke would not agree, and in a fit of anger, he would not auction this mobile phone here.

However, really let him give a reserve price with his conscience, and he is absolutely unwilling, the VIPs of the auction house, because they can enjoy huge benefits, so their number is strictly controlled by the owner of the auction house, and the number of VIPs grows every year, there is a clear quota limit. If he really set a reserve price for this mobile phone with his conscience, then the auction amount that Cao Ke can get in the end is very likely to exceed the figure of one million, that is, Cao Ke can be promoted to become a VIP customer of their auction house and thus enjoy their discounts, which is unacceptable to middle-aged people.

Although Cao Ke is the third son of the Cao family, the three major families in Wanghai City, but in the past, Cao Ke was mainly mixed with the Bai family's eldest and younger sons and daughters who did not learn and did not know how to do it, and he had nothing to do with this auction house at all, even if this auction house had already known that Wanghai City had the number one person of his Cao family, he had never met.

In this way, it caused a hallucination of the middle-aged man, and he thought in his heart that the young man in front of him was just taking advantage of a chance to get a treasure like a mobile phone, and he sold it for two dollars to spend money, and in the future, he would not appear in front of him again at all. Therefore, the middle-aged man really doesn't want the precious place of the VIP to be taken up by Cao Ke so easily.

It is precisely because of the above reasons that middle-aged people have to give up higher commission income and strive to lower the reserve price of mobile phones.

However, how could Cao Ke, a gangster, think clearly, anyway, the purpose of his visit this time was to sell the few things he brought when he crossed over, and scrape together enough 80,000 gold coins to buy medicine, since the reserve price given by the middle-aged man had already met his requirements, what else did he have to disagree?

Between the two sentences, Cao Ke and the middle-aged man determined the reserve price of the mobile phone, which made the middle-aged man very excited: "Childe, please hurry up and introduce the remaining two things." ”

Cao Ke nodded, picked up the five-yuan pack of cheap cigarettes, and said, "This thing is called cigarettes, and its function is to make the person who smokes it feel extremely comfortable." ”

"Smoking?" The middle-aged man looked at the cigarette in Cao Ke's hand suspiciously: "This thing is used to smoke?"

Cao Ke nodded, picked up the lighter on the coffee table very casually, pressed it lightly, and lit the fire, wanting to show the middle-aged man how to smoke.

However, when the middle-aged man saw the lighter in Cao Ke's hand and ignited a tiny flame, he was taken aback. Even the red sleeves standing behind Cao Ke couldn't help but take a step back.

The middle-aged ......man couldn't help but raise his hand, pointed at the lighter and said, "You actually started the fire so easily?"

Cao Ke said with a puzzled face: "This ...... Any questions?"

Red Sleeves hurriedly lowered his waist and whispered in Cao Ke's ear: "Young Master Ke, in our normal times, we mostly use the sparks produced by flints hitting each other to make fires, even if the easiest way is to shake the expensive fire folds several times, there is no time to light a cluster of flames as easily as you......"

Cao Ke listened to Red Sleeves' explanation, and then suddenly sighed.

After Cao Ke demonstrated how to smoke cigarettes and taught the middle-aged man to feel the feeling of smoking, the middle-aged man said with a serious expression: "Childe, in my opinion, your so-called cigarettes, it is still quite troublesome for people who don't know how to smoke them, and people who haven't smoked them don't know about it, so it is likely that it will not be accepted by the public, but your thing called a lighter is really magical......"

After thinking for a while, the middle-aged man continued: "I think, why don't we do this? Take your lighter as the main lot, and this box of cigarettes as a gift for the lighter, and then we will set a total price for the two of them, so that we are not afraid that your box of cigarettes will eventually be sold because no one knows the goods." ”

Cao Ke nodded: "Okay, just do what Mr. says." So what should be the reserve price of this lighter and this box of cigarettes?"

The middle-aged man responded: "The real value of these two things is only in their rarity, compared with the previous mobile phone, the practicality is greatly reduced, but as a collection, it still has considerable value, after all, they are still the only existence in this world...... I think how about setting the total price at 10,000 gold coins?"

Cao Ke nodded approvingly: "No problem." ”

Seeing that Cao Ke had no objections, the middle-aged man immediately put away the mobile phone and other items on the coffee table, and then issued a * to Cao Ke with the received items and marked with the reserve price, and then, the middle-aged man no longer stayed, and after saying hello, he hurriedly ran out.

After a while, outside the door of Cao Ke's VIP room, he remembered a soft knock on the door.

"Please come in. Redsleeves replied. At the door opened, a beautiful waitress came in, first bowed deeply to Cao Ke who was leaning on the sofa, and then said respectfully: "This son, what you want to auction, our treasure connoisseur has taken it down to prepare for the afternoon auction, now, you can continue to stay in this VIP room and wait for the afternoon auction to begin, or, you can also leave here first, go to other things, in short, before the end of today's auction, this VIP room will be yours." ”

Cao Ke nodded noncommittally. The maid continued, "If you do not leave at noon, please let me know in advance, and I will go and prepare lunch for you." ”

Cao Ke waved his hand: "No need, we will leave soon and come back in the afternoon." ”

"Okay. The maid answered, bowed to Cao Ke again, and turned to leave.

Cao Ke picked up the teacup on the coffee table, raised his head and drank the remaining tea inside, then stood up and waved his hand to Red Sleeves: "Red Sleeves, let's go." ”

Red Sleeves answered softly, followed behind Cao Ke, walked out of the room, went downstairs, walked through the small square, and came to the gate of the auction house.

Just as they were stepping out of the gate, a strange voice sounded on their left side: "Yo! Who was I at the time? Isn't this the Third Young Master Cao? Why? Instead of gambling today, I went to the auction house to visit?"

Cao Ke frowned, followed the prestige, and saw a handsome son, with two strong subordinates, from the left side of the avenue in front of the door, walking in his direction.

"Who is this?" Cao Ke pouted and whispered to the Red Sleeves behind him.

The red sleeves were attached to Cao Ke's ear and said, "This person's name is Liu Long, and he is the seventh son of the Liu family. ”

"Liu family?" Hearing Red Sleeves say this, Cao Ke suddenly remembered that when he saw Old Man Cao yesterday, Old Man Cao seemed to have mentioned this Liu family, and also said that this Liu family had a genius in cultivation.

"This Liu family is also one of the three major families, right?" Cao Ke continued to say to Red Sleeves.

Red sleeves nodded: "That's right, unlike the other Bai family of the three major families, this Liu family is working against our Cao family everywhere, this time, Young Master Ke, you have met this Liu Qi Gongzi, you must be careful to deal with it." ”

Cao Ke's eyes flashed, and he snorted disappreciatively.
