Doing as the Romans do, Sean went to buy a new set of black clothes, which were modified to fit him perfectly.
People rely on clothes. Sean, who put on a new fitted suit, looked more handsome, free and easy. Under the shadow of the new black clothes, his whole person was full of energy and youthful.
With his slender, straight and strong figure, he looks like a handsome young man who is beyond ordinary.
Sean likes the color of this outfit very much. No matter what color he wears during the day, he will stand out. Even if he takes off his clothes and wears nothing, he will still stand out.
But it's different at night. You can blend in with the night by wearing black clothes, and your whole person will be as elusive as a ghost.
In order to avoid the trouble of being followed again, Sean specially bought a cloak to cover his face, which was even more mysterious and kept people away.
"Restaurants, restaurants are the most well-informed place, so go to the restaurant."
Sean chose the most luxurious restaurant, ordered a table of the most expensive wine and food, and started eating and drinking alone.
"Tomorrow's large-scale auction held by Nanzhou Auction House. I heard that there will be many rare items, attracting many powerful people who have never shown up." In the restaurant, a customer with a long camera said.
Another customer followed and said, "We are just talking about this kind of auction. I heard that just one item auctioned off can be enough to last us a lifetime."
"PHS, just brag. How much do you know?" Some guests said with disdain.
The guest with a sharp camera said: "Hmph, just think that I am just boasting, but if any of you pay for this table of drinks today, I will tell you a secret that no one knows."
"PHS, you're not using some bad news to cheat me out of food and drink, are you?" Another guest sneered.
"PHS, come over here and eat. No matter what you say, I'll pay for your table of drinks."
Sean was worried about not being able to find out the news when he heard PHS's voice, his calm voice echoing quietly in the restaurant.
PHS was overjoyed when he heard this. Just a few of them got together and came here to enjoy the atmosphere. How could they eat the most expensive banquet like Sean alone? They hurried over and the other people were only envious. share.
"You can say it. If you are satisfied, you can take it all. If you are not satisfied, you can just take one piece."
Sean pointed to the hundred pieces of low-grade Yuanshi on the table and said, "It's just that I have a bad habit. I can't listen to lies. You don't have to tell them, but if you tell lies to fool me, your life will also be a lie." of."
When PHS heard this, he was overjoyed and said quickly: "I'm sure, I guarantee it's all true. Do you know that the items auctioned by the Nanzhou Nanzhou Chamber of Commerce come from the Dimension Heaven?"
Then he opened his mouth and started talking while eating, and said proudly: "Moreover, this kind of precious item cannot be bought with Yuan Stone. It must be traded with high-grade Yuan Liquid."
"besides……"
The Dimensional Heaven is the second heaven of the Xiantian Heaven and Earth.
"Oh, do you know the way to the Nanzhou Auction House?" It was about the Nanzhou Chamber of Commerce. Sean didn't want to say more here, so he asked lightly.
Upon hearing this, PHS quickly said: "We know you so well, I live near there."
Sean patted the Yuanshi on the table and said calmly: "Take them all away. You will go and buy the two most expensive rooms later. You will stay here tonight. You just need to take me to Nanzhou for the auction tomorrow morning." Okay, I have another big reward."
"Really, it's that simple. You didn't lie to me..." Before he finished speaking, PHS suddenly felt a chill and said quickly: "The villain talks too much, the villain talks too much."
After putting away the Yuan Stone, Xiaolingtong couldn't figure out how he could feel his heart tremble even with the breath of the other party when he was clearly at a higher level than the other party.
Back in the room, Sean called PHS over and said slowly: "PHS, tell me everything you know, including the relationship between the Nanzhou Chamber of Commerce and the Nanzhou Auction House. I want to know everything."
In front of Sean, PHS didn't even dare to breathe, and said bravely: "Let me make it clear first, I can only say what I know, and what I don't know, it will be useless even if you kill me."
Sean nodded slightly.
"Nanzhou Auction House was originally affiliated with the Nanzhou Chamber of Commerce. Originally, the Nanzhou Chamber of Commerce was the most powerful among the four major chambers of commerce. However, in the past ten years, the other three chambers of commerce have united to form a group called the Sanjun Chamber of Commerce. , the Nanzhou Chamber of Commerce will have a difficult time."
PHS nodded and said: "They jointly suppressed the Nanzhou Chamber of Commerce. I heard that there was another competition recently, which was enough to drive the Nanzhou Chamber of Commerce into despair."
Sean nodded, told PHS to retreat, and stayed in the room alone.
"Hmph, if you want to bully my sister, even the emperor can't do it. Now that I'm here, even if you break the sky, you can't even think of touching a hair on my sister."
Sean has a deep affection for Qiao Hongyi, and he has taken care of her without any regrets for eight years, which makes him cherish this relationship even though his flesh and blood are separated.
The next day, Sean, still wearing his cloak, was brought to the Nanzhou Auction House by PHS. He was given a hundred low-grade Yuan stones and PHS left happily.
After paying one hundred yuan of low-grade Yuan Stone as the entrance fee, Sean walked into the auction house and found a seat in a relatively remote corner to sit down.
Charging a certain amount of admission fee is the purpose of the auction house to prevent those who are incapable of bidding from entering the site to watch, causing crowding at the auction site.
Moreover, these 100 pieces of low-grade Yuan Stone will not be returned, which can be considered a considerable income for the auction house.
Auction houses generally have two methods: self-portraits and proxy auctions.
Those who take selfies auction their own items at auction, while those who take selfies help clients auction off their items by collecting auction commissions.
Auction houses generally have seats with several types of treatment, including VIP seats, high, medium and ordinary seats. Except for ordinary seats, which are free of charge, other seats will charge a certain fee according to the level.
It was only the first time for Sean to participate in this kind of trading scene. He was not so particular and was sitting in an ordinary seat.
And he is not interested in bidding, it is purely for viewing. Of course, he will also bid if he sees something suitable.
The entire auction site was already crowded with people, and all seats were packed. It could be seen that it attracted a lot of people.
A middle-aged man in white walked onto the auction stage. His breath was steady and his eyes were bright. He picked up the gavel on the stage and knocked it, and the whole place fell silent.
"Hello everyone, I am Qiao Liang, the auctioneer in charge of this auction at Nanzhou Auction House."
The middle-aged man in white smiled and bowed his hands to the guests around him: "This auction is the largest one held by our auction house in recent years. We have been preparing for it for five years. The items in the auction are very precious. .”
"If you have anything, you'd better take it out as soon as possible. Don't use some junk to fool people. You can afford to lose face, and I don't have time to waste on you."
A cold voice came out from close to the auction table, with a strong sense of provocation, and people around him immediately started to agree.
The momentum is not weak!
Sean followed the sound and saw that it was an old man with a sinister look in the front row of senior seats. There were many people sitting around him, who must be in a group.
Qiao Liang stared for a moment without saying a word, and then knocked the gavel, announcing that the auction had officially begun.
"Fire Silkworm Soft Armor, a low-grade human-level inner armor, can reduce the attack power of normal attacks by 10%. At the same time, it can withstand a full blow from any offensive weapon below a low-grade human level. It is a rare defensive armor."
"As the first item to be auctioned in this auction, the starting price is 20,000 low-grade Yuanshi. Each increase in price must not be less than 1,000. The bidding starts now."
After Qiao Liang finished speaking, he knocked down the gavel directly.
Although Xiao En had no idea of the value of Yuan Stone, he could see from the items found on the Lan Yilou killer that the minimum price might have reached the entire assets of an ordinary Yuan Refining Realm powerhouse.
"Twenty-three thousand."
"Twenty-seven thousand"
…
Soon the price soared to 30,000 low-grade Yuanshi. Sean was not very interested in this kind of defensive inner armor. Although defensive inner armor was rare and precious, it was far more expensive than the offensive treasures of the same level. .
Generally, cultivators advance very quickly in the early stages. As long as their strength soars slightly, low-grade human-level inner armor will lose its meaning, so Sean has no intention of participating in the bidding.
"Thirty-five thousand."
It was the old man with a sinister face who spoke out. He immediately raised the price to 35,000, and then glanced around proudly, as if he was determined to win.
"Thirty-five thousand once, thirty-five thousand twice..."
Qiao Liang saw that no one raised the bid. According to the rules of the auction, as long as the auctioneer shouted three times in a row and no one raised the bid, the price of the auction item would be fixed and it would belong to the bidder.
"Forty-five thousand."
The voice was calm and calm, and it was Sean who spoke. He knew nothing about the value of the items, and he didn't have that many low-grade Yuan stones on his body. He raised the price simply to displease the sinister old man.
"Wow! Ten thousand was added at once. I didn't expect the competition for the first item to be so fierce."
"Yes! The general defensive inner armor is only worth 30,000 low-grade Yuan stones. This soft armor is not worth more than 40,000 yuan. The price is too high."
"Looking at that figure, he's young. He can't be a dazed young man. How could he have raised the price like this?"
People on the scene started talking one after another.
The old man with a gloomy face stared at Sean, his eyes turned cold, and said: "Okay, okay, I didn't expect that my Tong Wanhe encountered a problem the first time he made a bid. I followed this price, 50,000."
Sean could not see any expression under the cloak, but he did not continue to bid.
He judged that Tong Wanhe was only temporarily motivated to follow the bid. If he raised the price, he would make a fool of himself. He only had less than 30,000 yuan of low-grade Yuan stones, which was not enough.
The next items were equally precious, including medicinal herbs, martial arts, treasures, etc., but Sean was not interested in them.
Only when he saw that it was Tong Wanhe and the people around him who were bidding, Sean would increase the price accordingly, but in the end he didn't get anything, he just raised the bidding price by several levels.
Sean's actions made everyone present feel that he was obviously targeting Tong Wanhe and his group, but they couldn't understand how a boy at the third level of the Juyuan Realm had the confidence to challenge a strong man at the sixth level of the Refining Realm.
