Chapter 62: The Antique Auction
It took a lot of effort to finally wake up Lin Yu.
After waking up Lin Yu, Qin Shi dragged him to participate in the ancient style auction.
The ancient style auction house, located in the center of the ancient city, is very large.
The annual antique auction has caused a lot of turmoil in the ancient city. Therefore, early in the morning, it was already crowded with people, traffic, and forces from all sides came to hear the news.
"It's spectacular......"
Qin Shi had never participated in an auction in a deserted town, and he couldn't help but get excited when he looked at the spectacular scene in front of him.
Of course, Lin Yu shrugged his shoulders and said absentmindedly: "Indeed, although the scale is a little smaller, for a third-rate city like Gucheng, it is already very good to have this kind of Cheng dΓΉ auction house." β
"Standing and talking doesn't hurt your back!"
Qin Shi glanced at him, he didn't bother to deal with Lin Yu, and turned around and wanted to enter the auction house.
But as soon as the two of them came to the front, they were stopped by a young girl. The girl wore a welcoming costume and said respectfully: "Are you two here to participate in our antique auction?" Please show your membership card, and I will arrange a seat for you." β
"Beauty?"
Seeing the girl, Lin Yu snorted, and was so excited that he wanted to pounce.
I had expected this to happen, Qin Shi raised his hand preparedly, and after giving Lin Yu down, he said embarrassedly: "This beauty, I'm sorry, we don't have any membership cards." β
"Oh, no membership card?"
Hearing this, the girl frowned, her eyes showed a little disdain, and her tone became cold, and she said, "If you are not a member, if you want to participate in the auction, you need to pay one hundred lower grade spirit stones per person!"
"A hundred lower-grade spirit stones?"
The corners of Qin Shi's eyes twitched, and he said angrily: "Just going in, it will cost a hundred times the spirit stone?" I said sister, why don't you go and grab it?"
"I'm sorry, this is the rule of our Ancient Wind Auction House, if the two of you can't get a hundred spirit stones, you can only stay outside. The girl glanced at Qin Shi, as if she was looking at Hanako.
For the contempt in the girl's eyes, Qin Shi felt very unhappy.
Therefore, he gritted his teeth, took out two hundred spirit stones from his arms, and said secretly: "Hmph, this big city, it's really dark enough, if it weren't for Sister Yu, even if it was upside down, it would not be rare to go in." β
"The spirit stone is for you, take us in!"
Seeing the spirit stone, the girl was quite surprised. But she didn't talk nonsense, turned around and led the two into the auction hall: "Come with me, this is your brand, and I'll arrange a seat for the two." β
I have to say that this auction hall is really amazing, and it can accommodate at least 3,000 people. In the center of the auction room is the auction table, surrounded by circular stepped seats, with a full fifty rows.
Qin Shi and Lin Yu were arranged in the forty-fifth row.
For this, Qin Shi was very unhappy in his heart, looked at the few distinguished seats in front of him, and scolded: "Why? A hundred spirit stones are only given to Ben Shao to sit in such a back position? How can Ben Shao be allowed to sit in the front three rows?"
"Snort, first three rows?"
But at this time, next to Qin Shi and Lin Yu, an unkempt old man glanced at him and sneered: "Little guy, don't look at the masters! The people sitting there are all giants with heads and faces in the ancient city!"
"I said, old man, who are you? Qin Shi glanced at it, shrugged his shoulders and said, "In the end, isn't it just like us, sitting in the thirtieth row?"
β......β
The old man's face turned blue, and he coughed a few times: "That's because the old man doesn't want to sit!"
"I'm sorry, who wouldn't say it?" Ben Shao didn't hesitate to sit down!" Qin Shi didn't think much of this weird old man, and said uninhibitedly: "Old man, if you can sit in the first three rows, Ben Shao can sit on the stage or not?"
But at this time, Lin Yu narrowed his eyes quite positively.
He looked the old man up and down, pulled down Qin Shi vigorously, and said secretly: "Stone, this old man is not simple, I can't see through his strength, be careful." β
"Hey, what qualifications!" Seeing Lin Yu, the old man suddenly chapped his lips, and secretly said in his heart: "This son is extraordinary, he has the strength to seal the spirit realm at a young age, and his heart is also very calm, if he is ......"
Unexpectedly, before the old man's words fell, the auction had already begun.
At the beginning, a woman from Allure walked up to the auction table. The woman was dressed plainly, but her whole body revealed nobility, and she was dressed in a red close-fitting cheongsam, highlighting her concave and convex lines.
This woman is an authentic Jiangnan girl, with a pair of willow eyebrows, phoenix eyes, cherry mouth, melon seed face, with the beauty of the country and the city, the birds are dependent on people, the eight sides are exquisite, the demeanor is all directions, and she has a graceful and colorful charm.
.
For the nymphomaniac Lin Yu, when he sees this kind of goddess-level girl, where is there any resistance? Suddenly he left the old man next to him behind, and his straight eyes almost didn't fall out: "Excellent!"
β......β
Originally, he was praising Lin Yu's calm heart, but Lin Yu was very slapped in the face with such a look, which made the corners of the old man's eyes twitch a few times: "Could it be that I am wrong about the old man?"
"Look, it's Tan Xuehui, the first beauty in the ancient city. β
Thinking of this antique auction, she actually presided over it. β
"Isn't it, this time it's a blessing for the eyes. β
Seeing the woman on the stage, the people in the audience immediately cheered. Especially those bachelors, one by one, they were full of expressions, and they stood up and applauded Tan Xuehui.
"Hello everyone, it's an honor for me Tan Xuehui to preside over the annual ancient style auction of the ancient city for you this time!" Tan Xuehui stood on the stage, generous, and said confidently: "Next, it's the old rules, let's take a look, the first auction item!"
"High-grade spiritual weapon, slaying dragon halberd!"
At the beginning, it was a high-grade spiritual weapon, and the atmosphere on the field exploded instantly.
"It is worthy of the ancient city, and a high-grade spiritual weapon appeared at the beginning!" Seeing the sharp dragon slaying halberd, Qin Shi secretly admired in his heart. But from beginning to end. He didn't open his mouth to bid, but silently watched.
After all, his financial resources are limited, thousands of low-grade spirit stones, two hundred medium-grade spirit stones, these riches are placed in a deserted town, maybe a huge mountain of gold, but in the ancient city, it seems a little unflowable.
This dragon slaying halberd was finally auctioned by three hundred medium-grade spirit stones.
For this, Qin Shi was embarrassed in his heart, and said secretly: "The people of this ancient city are really rich, three hundred medium-grade spirit stones, but it is equivalent to a full thirty-thousand-grade low-grade spirit stones." β
After slaying the dragon halberd, there are no more treasures that are too eye-catching, most of them are some ordinary spirit grasses, low-grade or medium-grade spirit weapons, in the ancient city, these things are not worth making them crazy.
"The next one, pregnant spirit camellia. β
"Pregnant Spirit Mountain Tea, a second-order high-grade spirit grass, has the wonderful use of healing the soul, and the price of five hundred spirit stones starts!" Tan Xuehui took out a spirit grass that emitted a pale white light on the stage, and shouted at the audience.
When the opportunity came, Qin Shi's eyes lit up.
"Stone, help me get it. In the book, Yu said excitedly.
"Well, don't worry!" Qin Shi nodded in agreement, the purpose of his trip was to help Shuyu find herbs to heal his soul. Therefore, even if Yu doesn't say it in the book, he will never give up.
But Qin Shi did not bid rashly, but silently waited for the opportunity.
Therefore, the auction may be related to financial resources, but often more important is the mentality.
"A thousand spirit stones!"
"Two thousand spirit stones!"
"Five thousand spirit stones!"
In a blink of an eye, the price was raised to five thousand spirit stones, and the people on the field began to become quiet. At this quiet moment, Qin Shi knew that the opportunity had come, so he raised the brand in his hand and directly doubled the price: "One hundred medium-grade spirit stones!"
"Hiss-hiss......" The audience was in an uproar.
The reason for their uproar was not for a mere hundred medium-grade spirit stones. Rather, in their opinion, a soul-healing herb is not worth the price at all. This herb is rarely bought at a high price.
I have to say that Qin Shi's hand did play a lot of deterrent.
Many people turned their heads and glanced at Qin Shi, thinking that Qin Shi was a disciple of a big family and a big sect, so they gave up one after another. In the end, the hammer fell three times, and the pregnant spirit camellia was pocketed by Qin Shi.
Getting the pregnant spirit mountain tea, Qin Shi was very excited.
As long as there is this pregnant spirit camellia, the jade in the book will be saved.
However, he and Lin Yu did not leave directly, after all, entering this auction, he spent two hundred low-grade spirit stones, how could he stay until the end, so he could be worthy of those two hundred spirit stones.
One by one, the auction items passed.
But there's nothing too eye-catching.
Among them, Qin Shi had a few things that seemed to be beloved, and he would occasionally bid a few times, but in the end, all of them were ruthlessly strangled in the cradle by the group of wealthy merchants in the ancient city.
For this, he could only shake his head silently.
"Next, Neon Feather Coat!"
Tan Xuehui was on the stage and took out the next auction item.
This time, the auction item is a beautiful gauze dress in vermilion. The craftsmanship is exquisite, and it can be called a masterpiece. The most important thing is that the gauze skirt is actually attached to the spiritual power, and it has a high defensive performance, which is comparable to an inferior spiritual weapon.
Tan Xuehui stroked the gauze skirt and exclaimed: "Such gorgeous clothes, I think if someone is willing to give them to me, I will definitely bloom." Okay, without further ado, the price starts at three thousand lower grade spirit stones. β
Seeing the beautiful gauze skirt, Qin Shi's eyes lit up, and he photographed Lin Yu with a little flirtatious charm, and said, "Xiaoyu, are you optimistic about this Tan Xuehui? Brother taught you how to get her?"
"Huh, do you have a solution?"
"Of course, who is brother?" Qin Shi patted his chest very confidently and said, "As long as you can take a picture of this gauze skirt and give it to her when it's over, I guarantee that she can follow you obediently!"
"Three hundred medium-grade spirit stones!"
But at this time, the audience was already bidding frantically.
What is surprising is that such a seemingly flashy gauze skirt soared to three hundred medium-grade spirit stones in an instant. It seems that Tan Xuehui's charm is higher than the value of a high-grade spiritual weapon.
Listening to the appalling price, Lin blinked dryly, and finally said very seriously: "Ahem, use money to make a girl, that's outdated, what my brother wants is that kind of little freshness, not a pompous girl who is greedy for substance!"
"Fuck off, I don't think you have any money!"
Qin Shi was merciless and vetoed.
In the end, the high price of three hundred and fifty medium-grade spirit stones dropped the hammer, and the auction house had been pushed to the peak. Tan Xuehui spoke again: "The next one, the dragon tendon of the water dragon, the price of five thousand lower grade spirit stones." β
"Stone, no matter what, shoot this dragon tendon!"
