Just when everyone was about to bid, there was a sudden noise outside the auction house.
Jindila frowned. Is it possible that someone else dares to cause trouble?
Call a guard and ask him to go out and see what is going on.
The auction was also interrupted.
Soon the guard came back and said to Jindila: "Your Majesty, it was Prince Woolf of Wessex who wanted to come in, but because he did not have an invitation, he had a conflict with the guards outside."
The guard's voice was not quiet, and many other people also heard it.
"Wessex?"
"What are they doing here?"
At this time, Britain was still in the Seven Kingdoms era, and Wessex was one of them.
In other words, this is a prince from a kingdom in England.
"Invite him in!"
If it had been anyone else, Jindila would probably have been beaten away with sticks.
But Wessex is already the most powerful country among the Seven Kingdoms, and their prince is here, so it is naturally impossible to use force.
Soon a handsome young man was brought in.
He first saluted Jindila and said: "I have met Your Majesty Jindila, and I would like to say hello to you on behalf of my father Egbert."
Jindila could only reply: "Welcome, Woolf, are you visiting our Visigoths?"
"Yes, I just happened to arrive in Toledo today, and I heard that His Majesty was holding an auction here, so I took the liberty to come."
Although his words sounded nice, his eyes were dishonest and he looked around.
Seeing the porcelain on the top auction table, I asked curiously: "Is this what you are going to auction today?"
Fabialo replied: "Yes, Your Highness, this is our last auction today. If you are also interested, please take a seat and participate in the auction later."
A chamberlain brought a chair, and after Woolf sat down politely, he smiled.
Originally, everyone in the venue looked at the newcomer and felt a little impatient at his frivolous appearance.
Especially the Lombard King Lotelli sitting next to him asked dissatisfiedly: "What does Woolf think of this set of porcelain?"
The Lombard Kingdom was a kingdom established in Italy after the fall of Rome. It did not have a good relationship with Wessex. The main reason was that Wessex also sent people to participate in the defeat of Rome, but they took advantage of the situation and robbed many of Rome. All the good stuff has been moved away.
Therefore, the Lombard Kingdom, which inherited part of Rome's territory, naturally had some hatred for Wessex.
"No! I don't have any opinion!" Woolf said frivolously: "I just didn't expect that everyone would be so interested in something made of this kind of mud."
"Your Highness Wulf!" Jindila was a little angry. This kid is here to cause trouble, right?
Even if you can threaten the northern seas of Visigoth, you can't be so arrogant. Your father, Egbert, is still here. Who do you think you are? ?
"What?? Did I say something wrong?" Woolf spread his hands: "Do you really think this thing looks good? Aren't the glass products we have always looked better with this thing?"
During the Roman Empire, the glass industry in Europe was indeed very developed. Especially after they invented the glass blowing technology, the production of glass products became more precise and efficient.
"Your robber-like kingdom also knows what is good-looking and what is not good-looking?" The Lombard King Lotelli beside him sneered and sneered.
It turned out that many of the glass craftsmen left in Italy by the Roman Empire were kidnapped by Wiskes and brought back to the island of England. This boy actually dared to mention this matter to his face.
As if he didn't hear Rotelli's sarcasm, Woolf nodded with a smile and said: "Of course! I just happened to bring a set of our Wessex glass tableware today. How about we compare it?"
Jindila was furious. This kid must have planned it in advance. Otherwise, how could such a coincidence happen? ?
Unfortunately, some of the countries that came here were friendly with Wessex and were not of the same mind as him. He had to maintain enough grace and said: "Since you have brought good things, Woolf, take them out and show them to everyone." Bar."
As soon as Woolf clapped his hands, one of his men came over with a box, and then took out the made glass tableware one by one.
These are typical blue glass products, and the transparency has been greatly increased, already in a translucent state.
It shows a kind of sea blue under the light, which is indeed very beautiful.
After the Italian glass craftsmen were brought back to Wessex, they did make great progress in technology. This kind of translucent glass products was almost difficult to see in the past.
But when it comes to comparing it with ceramics, that's a matter of opinion.
But this Woolf must be pulled and stepped on.
"The more transparent something is, the purer it appears, so I think our glass products from Wiskes are far superior to the porcelain of the Tang Dynasty."
Woolf was also smart. Compared with glass and ceramics, the biggest feature is transparency, so he began to advocate that transparent ones are purer and more beautiful.
Li Zhi was watching the joke, but what the hell is this Woolf thing about?
Just use some broken glass to touch the porcelain of our Datang Dynasty?
This is really touching!
When it comes to glass products, are you the only ones? Are you too embarrassed to show it to your eyes?
Li Zhi is also a typical Tang Dynasty person. He seems to be low-key and reserved at ordinary times, but you can't touch his red line.
It is now clear that Woolf has stepped on his red line.
He called one of his followers over and gave a few instructions. Then he stood up and asked loudly: "Since the more transparent things appear, the purer they appear, why does Prince Woolf not use pure transparent glass tableware? Don't you like it?"
Listening to the strange sarcasm, Woolf narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Zhi: "Who are you? What qualifications do you have to talk to me?"
Li Zhi didn't look like he was from Europe, so he couldn't be a member of the royal family here, so he would not be equal to himself in terms of status.
"Haha, I'm just a civilian businessman!" Li Zhi's men had returned at this time, bringing with them the glass products from their caravan.
Li Zhi originally planned to wait for the auction here to end, take advantage of the kings and nobles of various countries to hold a glass products exhibition like Tang's Trading Company, and then sell these.
Now since this Wolf must stick his face out, he can only hit him.
Amid the exclamations, Li Zhi picked up a large glass pot.
The transparent glass wall made everyone stunned for a moment.
What surprised them even more was that Li Zhi actually let go immediately.
