Chapter 528: "·Auction Festival"

As long as you have food in your mouth, you have solved all the problems of the moment.
-Franz Kafka (Austrian novelist)
After careful introduction by the beautiful woman beside him, Bai Fengcai had a preliminary understanding of the auction festival of Westminster Auction House; the annual auction festival is not only a feast of Westminster auction house for money, but also the emperor's dignitaries Get together and compare.
Of course, this understanding of the auction festival came from Bai Feng’s own ideas, not Martha’s introduction; Martha, a civilian, was only a maid trained by the Westminster Chamber of Commerce. She dare not comment on the auction festival and the empires.
After wandering around the auction house for a long time, Bai Feng felt a little tired and was taken by Martha to the VIP room marked with the number 27; the VIP room not only has a variety of food and wine, but also a transparent magic glass, which can make the VIP indoor The situation of the auction house in the column of people.
There are only one hundred VIP rooms in the auction house for VIPs, which means that only 100 real empire dignitaries can participate in the auction ceremony tonight in the VIP room; other imperial nobles with insufficient power can only be in the auction house Participate in the auction festival on the top of the row.
A hundred VIP rooms and 500 rows of seats are all seats in the Westminster auction house; each row can only seat one person, and the VIP room can only allow up to five people, so in fact it will be tonight The number of people participating in the auction ceremony is limited to a thousand people.
There are more than a thousand people in the imperial capital, that is, there are hundreds of earl-level nobles, not to mention they have heirs of their own families; not to mention the real power aristocracy in the local area, not to mention that their family in the imperial capital has more power than the imperial capital. Earl is much stronger!
Bai Feng, who was lying slightly on the sofa, was lost in contemplation, letting Martha stand behind him and massage his forehead for himself. All his thoughts were put on the Westminster Chamber of Commerce, thinking about the Westminster Chamber of Commerce. What is your true identity.
Time passed by one minute and one second, while Bai Feng was meditating, more and more empire dignitaries brought their entourage to the Westminster auction house; their entourage would be arranged by the attendant of the auction house to rest next door , They will enter the auction house alone.
For real dignitaries, they can bring the four attendants or four friends around them into the VIP room; each VIP room entrance is marked with a digital serial number, and it is also marked to enter this VIP room tonight Noble identity.
There are no low-key elements in the character of the aristocrats of the Dragon Dragon Empire, especially at the grand festival of auctions; how to show the power and status of their families as much as possible is the question that the nobles think about. They will not hide themselves. identity of.
Therefore, the VIP room on the 27th where Bai Feng is located, the door clearly displays the word "Marquis Llorente"; even though Marquis Llorente is not in the imperial capital, Bai Feng’s identity is Marquis Llorente. The second son can naturally represent the Marquis Llorente family.
I don't know how many empire dignitaries Bai Feng came outside, just thinking about things in the VIP room; after nightfall, the auction house filled with nobles finally began the auction ceremony tonight, and the explanation is in charge of the auction house. Duke.
Duke first touted the aristocrats who participated in the auction festival tonight, and then began to talk about the glorious history of the auction festival. These non-nutritive nonsense, Bai Feng yawned, and even sleepy came out. Too.
After more than ten minutes of opening, Duke did not immediately enter the formal auction link tonight, but took Bai Feng to his Yamato Imperial treasures and explained that these treasures came from the collection of a mysterious family.
As soon as the words "Mysterious Family" Collection" came out, the aristocrats in the auction house boiled; these aristocrats who lived luxuriously and had no worries about food and clothing were most interested in these things. Duke's introduction happened to their Itchy.
So, under the watchful eyes of the nobles, the first treasure of the Yamato Empire was carried to the auction table by two servants; this is a set of armor of the Yamato Empire warrior made of pure gold, with a gleaming golden light and strange and strange The styling immediately aroused the exclaimation of the dignitaries.
Duke, who quietly withdrew from the auction, handed over the auction tonight to his gold auction host; as soon as the beautiful and sweet voice host came out, he introduced this armor with a magic microphone:
"Dear respected adults, this is a special armor from the mysterious family; its luxurious forging methods and bizarre armor shapes are all unheard of, and such an armor may even be unique in the entire continent.
If an adult can bring this armor back, then you who own this armor have a unique treasure that will be handed down to the world; in order to thank you adults for their love for our auction house, our starting price for this armor is- -Ten gold coins! "
"Ten gold coins?!" The nobles who exclaimed, did not expect the starting price of this armor to be so low!
Bai Feng, who was also slightly surprised, immediately relieved Duke of the auction price after thinking of the auctioneers’ means on the earth; the starting price was ten gold coins, which does not mean that the transaction price was ten gold coins, the Westminster Chamber of Commerce did The means of business is really extraordinary!
"I have a thousand gold coins!" As soon as the reserve price came out, a wealthy and wealthy businessman directly doubled the reserve price by 100 times! Being able to participate in the auction ceremony where the dignitaries gathered, this wealthy businessman's property is estimated to be amazing, and a thousand gold coins is really nothing for him.
"I have three thousand gold coins!" As the rich businessman's offer fell short, a young noble decisively reported a higher price.
"Three thousand five hundred gold coins!" This is an offer from an older nobleman.
"Five thousand gold coins!"...
The quotation that was higher than one time was bidding by the noble and rich merchants in the rows of the auction house's lobby; the imperial capitals and dignitaries in the entire hundred VIP rooms had no quotation, which made Bai Feng quite strange.
"Five thousand gold coins!" When the original price was still forty thousand gold coins, the rich businessman who initially offered the price directly quoted the highest price.
In the silent hall of the raven, no more nobleman was willing to offer a better price; the beauty who hosted the auction smiled and raised the mallet in her hand, hammering it down heavily and shouting: "Five thousand gold coins The first time! Fifty thousand gold coins The second time! Fifty thousand..."
"One hundred thousand gold coins!" The sudden offer of the VIP room on the 14th interrupted the last hammer hosted by the beauty; it also made the silent hall boil again, and the rich businessman who wanted to win this set of armor gave up decisively. Bidding.
The nobles who can be in the VIP room are the truly most powerful handful of people in the empire. The rights and status of these people determine that the noble and wealthy merchants in the hall are not qualified to compete with them. This is the most in the auction house. Basic rules.
Only under the premise that the VIPs in the VIP room do not bid, the nobles and rich merchants in the lobby can bid for what they like; once the VIPs in the VIP room start quoting, it is not a competition that the people in the lobby can mix. .
"110,000 gold coins!" The nobles and wealthy merchants in the hall gave up the bidding, but it does not mean that the nobles who were in the VIP room would also allow the nobles in the VIP room to buy this armor; the VIP room on the 14th was just After the price was quoted, VIP Room No. 9 began to bid.
"150,000 gold coins!" The offer in the VIP room on the 14th will not stop here.
"160,000 gold coins!" Well, everyone with a discerning eye can tell that this is the VIP room on the 9th deliberately provoking the VIP room on the 14th.
