Chapter 151 The Contest of Wealth

Yes, it's still a little bit too much, uh, what's wrong recently...

So Edward took a step to the side quietly, and under his wide sleeves, he held Elena's palm and soaked the book*(

But he seemed to underestimate the other party's ability to act

The tall young man stepped forward, put one hand on Elena's shoulder, and gave her half hug, which made Edward frown.

Fortunately, the guy just put his shoulder on Elena, and he knew how to separate his body. Of course, there was also the reason why the psychic warlock's arm was slightly pressed, pulling Elena back half a step back

In fact, he really wanted to give this guy a spiritual jab, but the paladin was firm in his will. It was probably meaningless to use this kind of thing, and it would only add trouble...

"Elena, who are these priests? Are you your companions?" Or noticed the faint hostility in the black robe, the paladin took a step back, his brows pounding, and his tone was a little displeasure in his tone.

, but then covered it up: "Can you introduce it?"

"Ah, let me introduce it. This is the waiter of Father Yurien Sigfried, Paladin." Elena panicked slightly: "This is Lisa Linobili, I'm here

The friend I met during the trial journey and he was Edward, Edward Vincent, and also my...friend."

"You are... a wizard? I wish you the glory of God the Father will be with you." The tall paladin nodded and made a blessing gesture as a greeting. The smile on his face remained unabashed, except for the same.

The moment Elena met, his smile at this time was originally a matter of indifferent and politeness. Edward narrowed his eyes and noticed that the other person's eyes were stuck in his hand holding Elena for a moment, and the flashing of it was

Things are obviously not that friendly

In fact, it is better to misunderstand it is better to misunderstand it... But Edward probably doesn't have much better expression now, and he can be regarded as having each other.

"This is really a coincidence, or the arrangement of God the Father," the other party continued: "It's been a year and three months? I also met a few friends on the journey. Come here together if I don't mind it.

, I can introduce you to you. They have a private room on the second floor, and there should be a few more people sitting down."

"We already have this private room... Well, Lord Sigfried, do you want to sit?" Edward's tone was undoubtedly quite enthusiastic, but his tone was cold, which clearly seemed to be unwelcome.

The guy covered in bright silk dressed like an Arab prince. Behind him were six strong and tough men

Edward frowned, and recognized from the slight differences between the skeleton of ordinary people, these guys should not be ordinary humans - with their faint green pupils, they looked like werewolfs I had seen before.

Without enough power and wealth, it is absolutely impossible to find so many werewolfs who flee as bodyguards, but this guy is really not like a person who should be socialized by a paladin. From the beginning of his appearance, his gray-green eyes were a little too busy.

The frivolous eyes kept falling close to Edward, and the three women were patrolling the shuttle.

"Hehe, Edward is jealous..." The half-elf blinked and smiled maliciously: "But, Elena, your companion is really handsome. How old is he? Do you have a girlfriend?

?

Recently, I don't know how many years older than me, so he completed the trial two years ago and has been traveling since then, so I don't know what happened recently, when I was in the church,

It seems that there is no

It's normal to be jealous,

Although Elena has a bit rigid personality and cannot tolerate certain things, she is a good companion in both appearance and personality, especially Edward's first woman, with very deep bonds. In fact, according to the truth, she is

Although the two are gentle when they get along, they are not lacking in stubbornness. Especially those who follow the rules are difficult to be out of line. Edward should not be suspicious of loyalty.

However, Edward is not a sunny boy with excessive mental health. All conspiracy has long been a kind of inertia of his thinking.

In addition, that Yurien is indeed a little better. She is a little older, calm, sunny on the outside, polite on the outside, and has the same identity as the Saint Warrior of God, and is a nobleman. For Edward, he will be half a lifetime*

*Si, she is the most despised but most dangerous, and the most handsome and handsome rich man, plus that childhood acquaintance and childhood sweetheart...

On the other hand, Edward himself—he didn't even have to think about it carefully—he looked average, was one year younger than Elena, and was barely five and a half feet tall. He was a peasant and a mercenary, and was a noble person.

It's an inconspicuous viscount that hasn't gotten the territory yet... the only thing that can be taken out is the ability to kill and brainwash, but these are not useful abilities. At least the paladin should not be optimistic about it...oh, or the identity of the magician is

It's pretty good, and it's also an exclusive apprentice of a great magician. Unfortunately, the casting ability has just touched the second ring of the magic net. Taking it out will only make the other party laugh out loud*book*(

Well, or he is quite rich. Now he may be far from being rich enough to rival a country, but if he is rich enough to compete with a city, it seems that it is almost the same... But the key is that the Paladin doesn't care about money

Or he has an advantage that he takes the lead first... But this world is not the feudal dynasty he is familiar with. The theory of marrying a chicken, marrying a chicken, marrying a dog, and being famous, for ordinary people, even if they care about it, they are not at all.

Focus on... Needless to say, among the nobles, Edward knew his thoughts, and he was not sure. He put all his mind on Elena, maybe not even half of it, and the good quality of focusing on him was thrown into Java.

It's country

If you have nothing to do, you will naturally feel inferior in your heart. If you feel inferior in your heart, you will naturally feel guilty. How can you not think about it randomly?

In fact, it's enough for Edward to guess it, let alone that enthusiastic hug...

In addition, you must take out auction items that will excite the nobles and nouveau riche every once in a while. It can be a magical equipment such as a magical artifact that has been left behind in other countries, a hero in a mythological epic.

The armor worn, the best spices sent from a distant foreign country, the portrait sculpture of a certain god, and even the close-fitting clothes of a princess of the empire...

The auction is not much different from the memory. It is always upward and the price is increased. The price is higher. The small difference is that no one raises the sign, but through magic, everyone presses the price increase system,

A crisp bell sound

The styles are different, and this room seems to emphasize comfort. The sturdy pine wide chair is full of brocade cushions, and it seems to be trapped in it when sitting down.

The profession of paladins is not served in the country Lansendal churches throughout the continent, so paladins naturally have no distinction between nationalities.

He was the eldest son of the Marquis, but he gave up... Well, it should be said that the inheritance rights were shelved because his father had been waiting for him to return to the inheritance territory, and he didn't know if there was a turning point recently,

It was a staff with extraordinary appearance. The handle made of black wood was wrapped with soft leather. A huge water sapphire was embedded on the bracket etched into vine patterns, and it was shining with slight light and shadows.

This is an instant staff that can be used three times a day, so that all spells can be activated directly without spells and gestures - for a magician, this is simply a rare treasure, although it has not reached the level of a magician,

It's almost done. With it, a mage can at least have a very high advantage in a sudden encounter.

The lowest price of this thing is 16,000 platinum coins

However, the sound came from the box on the second floor, and the auctioneer's assistant quoted: The nobles in the box had become a little impatient.

The second round of competition lost the obvious smell of temptation, almost seeing blood, the sound of quotations was colder than the other, and the numbers gradually rose; starting from 19,000 platinum coins, almost every time it turned upwards on the original price.

Ten percent, ten thousand, ten thousand, two thousand, ten thousand, four thousand”,

Both the auctioneer and the assistant seemed a little calm, but there was no need for any introduction at this moment. The competition was entering a white-hot stage, but the price was obviously not in the position of these people.

So in the first half of the auction, a war with wealth as a sword and war broke out between the two private rooms... No matter what No. 8 wants to buy, No. 4 will keep increasing the price, even one

The necklace worth only 1,000 platinum coins was fired by two private rooms to nearly 10,000 before stopping

Looking at this inexplicable competition, several people who were also sitting in the VIP seat stopped all the transactions at the same time and exchanged glances with each other.

Even if it is a small thing, as long as one party bids, the other party will definitely win... The person in the No. 4 box always seems to be a trick and always acts as the ultimate loser. However, he continued without discouragement.

Fight, cast your own price on every thing you can choose, and bake the atmosphere little by little to the terrible heat

When the wooden hammer fell in the auctioneer's hand, it announced the eighth auction item today, a dress of egg tempera by Master Donatoluo three hundred years ago, was bought by the No. 8 box with 21,000 platinum coins.

Some veterans, or regular customers who often linger in auctions, seem to have noticed something-the people in the No. 8 box had already thrown out more than ten times the price of the item in less than two hourglass time.

Platinum coins, for some items used to cushion the field, this seems to be too much...

Hundreds of thousands of platinum coins have been burned in a short time, and the cold eyes gradually mixed with violent anger. The look of the eyes did not look like an auction, but was like a life-and-death battle with the opponent.

war

"Little idiot..."

Edward couldn't help but put a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth. Since some people like to sprinkle gold coins for the so-called victory, of course he wouldn't mind helping the other party, and he wouldn't lose anything anyway.

Unfortunately, the auction house will not give itself some kickbacks, otherwise,

I hope it won't turn into a bloody battle... Several experienced VIPs have recognized them

Looking at the thin and shriveled old man on the stage, Edward yawned boredly and drank all the wine in his glass.

"I will only tell you a few things worth noting. The more popular one is a nest of flying dragon eggs, four and ten griffon eggs from the Yishen Mountains. After identification by the mages, they can be hatched

Healthy baby”

"Oh" Miss Half-Elf immediately gave a small cheer, "I want me to always want a griffin as a mount."

So Edward rolled his eyes and said to her: "I have no money on me first."

"Don't worry, I... a nobleman like Mr. Tiberius has the privilege of checking out directly at the end of the auction, so if you encounter something you like, you just need to make a quote." The woman who followed them in

"But please note that, now we can provide you with only a share of up to 500,000 platinum coins, and this number has been used in previous purchases.

About 200,000”

Edward nodded. In fact, he came here just to make soy sauce. Although the prices of the items in the auction must be expensive, it seems that there are not many that are worthy of his auction.

For example, griffin and flying dragon... This thing looks really good on the surface - a large carnivorous monster, one fierce and tenacious one is enough to deal with a dozen or even dozens of people, and can fly, whether it is used as a guard, a mount or

All weapons are suitable

But these things are actually very scammed... It seems that it doesn't cost much to raise a griffin to just hatch an egg, but in fact, the energy spent on training such a behemoth is quite large in order for the knight to be able to use it with

Communication is not simply a rein and saddle that can deal with the inevitable need of a magic device, and whether it is a griffin or a flying dragon, the meat that needs to be eaten every day is not a small amount - griffin requires dozens of pounds of fresh meat every day,

There are many flying dragons. It is not an easy task to do on this continent where animal husbandry is not an industry. Even the hunting grounds of duke level cannot meet such requirements.

Although the attack power is indeed a first-class strong soldier, this problem has always restricted the number of such flying monsters, so the role played by griffons or dragon knights is not very important on the battlefield.

Instead, it is not as numerical advantage as herbivores like Pegasus

Although it's just the beginning, the excitement of sweat and various tobacco has filled the hall with fragrant wood with all kinds of strange smells. Fortunately, Edward's private room is quite high-end, and it seems to be accompanied by a layer of air-purified wind wall.

It was not mixed with the oil sweat below, tobacco and strong perfume smell.

The word slave is not actually an official word in Tuminis, because most of the so-called slaves in this country are servants of the contract system. Although their status is still low, they do not completely lose their human rights. Of course, this kind of

Institutions do not completely replace slavery on the mainland. In most countries, such as the empires in the east of the mainland, they live in the desert people in the lonely shadow desert, and even the Crulod barbarians in the northwest autonomous region, or many

Or less, this ancient social system is retained.

In fact, the so-called truly civilized and civilized country is just a large number of temples that have strict supervision of certain behaviors. However, while human beings have wisdom, they like to use them to challenge the rules, so they do not implement slavery.

There will be a large number of extremely boring nobles who are willing to spend their pockets on some special slaves just to get happiness every day
