Collect [] to provide you with wonderful novels to read. [Very].

In the next auction, Richard was as calm and calm as ever, making repeated shots and constantly making gains. Half of what was photographed was used by Richard for his own use, and half was donated to the Eternal Dragon Palace, and even so, the total amount of donations was gradually pushed up to the point of six million, and there was only a gap of less than 200,000 from Cardiff.

Cardiff was already fidgeting, sweat pouring out and wetting his clothes. At this moment, the henchmen he sent out finally rushed back and brought back a delicate little box. Cardiff opened it and saw that there were neat and neat high-purity magic crystals, a full twenty of them. So his heart settled down a little, this is the greatest support that the Tucson family can give him, and the deadline for return is very strict.

In fact, Cardiff is now in a dilemma, even if he wins now, and can pocket Lina in the future, it can only be regarded as a slight gain. What's more, Lina is still an uncertain variable. If he loses, the loss will be close to 10 million, and for Cardiff, it can definitely be said to be bankrupt.

He now regrets that he rashly gambled with Richard on this game, looking at Richard's appearance, in addition to the donation of six million and more than three million materials for his own use, he still looks like he has enough energy, how can he have so much cash!

In the current situation, there is no advance or retreat. Cardiff ordered a glass of spirits, drank it down, and then plunged into the auction with red eyes. The amount of donations rose to 8 million in the blink of an eye, and Richard was still 200,000 short of Cardiff. But there were less than ten high-purity magic crystals left in the Cardiff box, and Richard spent an extra million on three or four pieces of epic equipment, which were still designated for his own use.

There was silence in the auction hall, and everyone did not expect that this gamble would actually evolve into such a process! Some people who knew more about the equipment industry even strangely thought of going to another place, and the total price of the equipment that Akmund had sold in Faust over the years did not know if it exceeded 10 million.

Since the auction, Richard has spent 12 million lightly, and he always looks like he still has spare energy. It was that way from the beginning, and it still is. Richard has long gone beyond the nouveau riche.

As Gordon said, people tend to look down on the nouveau riche, but when a person breaks out beyond a certain limit, people will look at him with respect, awe, admiration, or hatred, but in short, they will no longer look down on him.

The outbreak that Richard is now showing is beyond the psychological limits of many people. *.

Richard looked at Cardiff again, smiled suddenly, and said, "Baron, do you want to take a few pieces of land out? ”

"Nonsense! I ...... I ......" Cardiff felt his whole cheek burn, but years of self-discipline finally took effect, and he calmed down a little, even if Richard's eyes were full of mockery and contempt, no matter how ashamed he was, he didn't go crazy to that point.

Cardiff glared at Richard and almost burst into flames, but in the end he didn't dare to say anything cruel. In front of many nobles, what is said must be fulfilled, otherwise it will become without the slightest dignity and credibility, and it will be difficult to rise in the future. If he loses this bet, it will only be a heavy loss financially, but the territory is not the same as the plane, it is the skeleton of a nobleman, and it is they who support the badge on the title of nobility. And gold coins or resources, when they are used up, they can be earned and mined again.

Seeing that Cardiff was not to be fooled, Richard shook his head with some regret and continued to focus on the auctioneer.

In the blink of an eye, Richard pushed the donation amount to more than nine million, and successfully surpassed Cardiff. And Cardiff was short of breath, his expression stiffened, he reached out and grabbed a few handfuls in the box next to him, scratching his fingers at the bottom of the box, but he didn't touch a high-purity magic crystal, so he finally knew that he was finished.

The auction is also coming to an end, and the auction is not a single item, but a set of magical light chain armor suitable for almost all classes.

This batch of light chain armor is quasi-epic equipment, and the starting price of a single set is 30,000 gold coins each, and the total number of sets is as high as 200 pieces. This is a huge auction with a starting price of up to six million, and it also shows that Norland attaches great importance to dimensional warfare. Such war equipment often overwhelms some precious and scarce materials and items, and becomes the finale of the auction. This is also one of the traditions of Norland auctions.

The pricing of this kind of war equipment is very accurate, there is no special reason, and there will be no orders of magnitude fluctuations, so in the end, Richard auctioned this batch of magic light chain armor at a unit price of 36,000. Ready to be reserved for future brood elite units.

When the auctioneer announced that Richard had successfully auctioned off this batch of light chain armor, there was a gasp of cold air in the auction hall! In this auction, Richard smashed out 20 million gold coins!

Cardiff's face was as dead as ashes, and only then did he realize that he and Richard were not on the same level when it came to competing for wealth.

Seeing Richard lightly pull out seven pieces of tissue paper with the royal seal from his pocket, he finally broke out and roared at Richard: "You cheat! The money is royal, not yours!

Richard raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "I said a long time ago, if you are not convinced, you can go to the territory or private plane to settle the account." ”

And Nereus stood up, his delicate little face tense, and said coldly: "Count Cardiff, please pay attention to your wording. I hereby assure you that the royal family did not intervene in the gamble just now, and Master Richard gambled entirely with his own wealth. If you are not convinced, then please let the Duke of Tucson move in the House of Lords, and then a royal and parliamentarian inquiry will be formed to investigate the fairness of the gamble. Are you sure you want to do this, Count Cardiff?"

Cardiff's lips opened and closed a few times, but he couldn't say anything. If you really do this, you are ready to make this matter a big one, no matter what the truth is, you will first tear your face with the four princes. And if the investigation doesn't get the evidence he wants, the outcome will be even worse, which means that the Tucson family is completely on the opposite side of Akmund and the royal family. Not to mention anything else, he can't pass the Duke of Tucson alone.

At the end of the day, Cardiff can only represent himself, not the entire Tucson family.

Richard looked at the magic clock and said to Count Cardiff, "It's almost time, Count Cardiff, do you want to continue gambling?"

"Ah...... I, admit defeat ......" Cardiff's voice was hoarse, like an ascetic who had just come out of the desert.

And all his entourage were like ashes, especially the middle-aged nobleman who tore Lina 200,000. They looked at Richard with monster eyes, and they couldn't believe that the scene just now could be true.

Million!!

It's 20 million in cash, not assets, and 20 million in one auction!

In the presence of many nobles, Cardiff had no chance of repentance. He had long since run out of cash, but he still had to pay off the three million wagers, and in the end he had to offer to pay off his gambling debts with his territory in Norland. This will be a viscounty's domain.

Richard thought about it and suggested that if he could choose from the territories in Cardiff's private name, then the valuation of each territory could rise by 10%. This valuation will be carried out by a specialist appraiser and will be registered with the Royal Crown, which is sufficiently impartial and authoritative.

A rise of one percent means that the Earl of Cardiff will lose more than 200,000 yuan, so he also agreed.

Soon, the map title deed of the Earl Cardiff's domain was obtained, and Richard looked at it and chose a seaside viscounty not far from the Black Rose Castle.

The clerk sent by the Noble Heraldic Bureau marked the title deed on the map and withdrew. Next, there are a series of trivial matters such as territorial value assessment and territorial handover, which naturally do not have to be handled by Richard himself.

Then it came to the most exciting part, and the part that everyone was looking forward to, two slaps in the face.

Everyone knew that Richard was a magician, and the Earl of Cardiff was a powerhouse in the Sanctuary. Although the face is one of the most fragile parts of the human body, once you have a fighting spirit, even if you can't reach the realm of killing the enemy with your face, you must have more than enough self-protection, and then it depends on whether the reaction force is enough to hurt people. As a magician, Richard, if he really slapped it with all his strength, maybe his palm would become bloody and fleshy, and Cardiff might not even have a red mark on his face.

Cardiff stood in the center of the auction room, leaned forward slightly, smiled at Richard and said, "Come on!"

At this moment, Cardiff regained his demeanor and demeanor, and his appearance was impeccable, fully demonstrating the cultivation of the children of the family.

Richard came to Cardiff, his eyes suddenly glowing faintly, and then he returned to normal. At the moment when Richard's eyes shone brightly, Cardiff suddenly felt creepy, as if his whole body had been seen through and clean, and he couldn't keep any secrets. Fortunately, this feeling disappeared in a flash, but it also made him break out in a cold sweat.

Richard stood still in front of Cardiff and suddenly said, "Count Cardiff, are you sure you want to pay off your gambling debts in this way?"

A cold glint flashed in Cardiff's eyes, and he said lightly, "I don't understand what you're talking about. ”

At this moment, Cardiff had gathered all the fighting energy he could mobilize on his face. The nature of his cultivation is special, and it has a strong concealing effect, even if the fighting energy of the whole body has been mobilized, there is still no trace on the surface. Mobilizing so much Dou Qi is enough to shatter the hand bones of an ordinary magician! However, after such a fragile part is blessed with excessive Dou Qi and strong shocks, the irreversible Dou Qi will also make Cardiff pay the price of opening his flesh and flesh, which can be described as a lose-lose situation.

However, Cardiff has already lost to the bone today, and it is nothing to lose face at all. And the shattering of the bones of the hand is only a small injury for the average magician, but Richard is a constructor, and a pair of steady hands are the core of the constructor!
