Chapter 935 Check their water meter (seeking a monthly ticket)
As the auctioneer's loud words fell, a light flashed on the stage, and then countless fireworks bloomed in unison.
Colorful and bright fire flowers sloped down from the stage like a waterfall.
From a distance, it looks like the stars in the sky have fallen into the human world.
Although the audience below comes from all over the world, they are also well-known elites.
But in this era, entertainment is scarce. Watching a dog fight is already a Chinese New Year.
When everyone has nothing to do, they usually bask in the sun, brag, or cheat on guys for money, food, women, etc., which are very healthy physical and mental activities.
They were all country bumpkins. They had never seen such a beautiful scene before. They all opened their mouths in surprise and were dumbfounded.
Leo looked at everyone's expressions and couldn't help but feel very proud.
This is his masterpiece.
Moreover, he argued hard and overcame the strong protests from Catherine and other company directors.
Although those women all know clearly that when it comes to product marketing, the opening ceremony must give them a head start and shock them, so that the other party can willingly become a fat sheep. But Leo's big move is obviously under the threat of Si.
Heart, for his own fun.
But in the end, Leo finally succeeded in convincing them.
However, Catherine also put down her harsh words: If it doesn't work, Mr. Lei will have to wait for a good meal of fried pork slices with bamboo shoots~!
However, now seeing the surprised and demented expressions on those people's faces, Leo was very happy to know that his butt was finally saved~!
At this time, the smoke on the stage gradually weakened and finally went out.
The goblin auctioneer looked at the bursts of gunpowder smoke rising in front of him. He immediately waved his hands vigorously, then cleared his throat and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen. Below, the first group of auction items, for His Majesty the Pope to inspect us.
Nai'an, a complete set of gold commemorative medals specially made by Flying Eagle Company authorized by Nai'an Temple."
As he spoke, he heard the crisp sound of high heels.
Then a beautiful emcee with wavy long hair walked up with an elegant cat walk.
I saw her bright eyes and white teeth, charming and moving. She was wearing a tight-fitting cheongsam, showing her exquisite and graceful curves. When she walked, her slender waist was swaying like a weak willow in the wind.
Through the slits on both sides of the cheongsam, you can vaguely see her beautiful, snow-white slender legs.
It is very heart-warming.
She came to the stage, stood in the middle with a smile, held a set of glittering medals in her hands, and placed them in front of her chest.
"The starting price is five hundred gold coins, and each time the price is increased by ten gold coins, the auction begins~!" the goblin auctioneer shouted in high spirits.
I don’t know if it’s because no one’s attention has turned to the auction yet, or because they know that the opening items are just appetizers.
Everyone in the audience had a mediocre response to this thing.
"Five hundred and ten..."
"Five hundred and twenty..."
"…………"
The goblin auctioneer saw that there were only a few people bidding feebly, and those guys were all shills who had been found in advance. He couldn't help but feel anxious, and immediately picked up his energy and vigorously promoted the benefits of this set of commemorative medals.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is made of 99.9% pure gold, with twenty-four of the most beautiful diamonds inlaid around it, and there is another important point to tell you.
The molds used to make this set of commemorative medals have been destroyed, which means that this set of commemorative medals will be unique in the entire continent. This is the only set of commemorative medals that has great collection value. And there is huge room for appreciation.
If you are interested in collecting, don’t miss it..."
I heard it is unique, and many people below are interested.
We are all rich people, so we are just pretending to be 13
Uh, taste, it’s taste*…
The cost of the Shenmalawi leather bag is only twenty yuan, but if you don’t spend two thousand yuan and take advantage of it, there is no class~!
A bottle of red wine costs ten yuan, but if you don't spend five thousand yuan to buy it, you won't feel the same.
Even though he was scolded behind his back as "a nouveau riche," he said, "A nouveau riche is a nouveau riche."
No matter what, he fully demonstrated his powerful and domineering "nouveau riche" unique temperament.
A bunch of poor people want to become rich, but they can't do it yet~!
They don't do serious things all day long, so they just know how to be envious and jealous~!
So, when they saw the set of commemorative medals, everyone couldn't help but start talking in low voices below.
For people who can sit here, this set of things is not expensive. It is a good choice to take it back and display it at home or give it to others. You can participate in it.
The atmosphere of the bidding below suddenly became lively, and then people started to shout out the price, and finally the transaction was completed after the price reached 1,000 gold coins.
Although the price is not high, it is not low either.
Everyone at the auction understands that since the auction is held, good things are yet to come, and everyone has to save money in case something they like appears.
The first auction was a good start, and the goblin auctioneer breathed a sigh of relief. He took out a white silk handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said loudly: "This second item..."
Lorraine couldn't help but feel a little bored seeing that what they were auctioning were all handicrafts and luxury goods that she was used to. Nadel held three or five auctions of this kind every month.
Not to mention that Catherine, Adele and the others hosted a charity auction that only the famous Shuyuan attended.
These things are not rare at all. Lorraine yawned again and said to Hilmelia: "I said, let's stay up most of the night just to see these things.
If you want to see this, you might as well go to Vera’s room.”
Hilmelia couldn't help but frown and asked suspiciously: "Vera's room?"
"Vera's house is full of these shiny things." Lorraine pouted.
Vera's face was startled, and then she said nervously: "Master, everything in my house is worthless, really~!"
Lorraine snorted and said: "The colored diamond hanging on the bed, which is bigger than a pigeon egg, is also fake? I have been looking at it for a long time."
Vera couldn't help but hesitated and said, "That one"
Then, he looked at Lorraine and said seriously: "Master, that is my favorite gem, but if you like it, I will give it to you~!"
Lorraine couldn't help but be startled for a moment, and then looked at Vera's clear eyes as blue as the sea,
I couldn't help but feel moved in my heart.
He stretched out his hand, and amidst Vera's protest, he ruffled her hair maliciously and said, "Don't worry, keep your things to yourself, I'm just teasing you."
Vera immediately let out a long breath, then smiled, holding Lorraine's arm with some embarrassment and withdrawing.
Lorraine looked at the dimples on her face and couldn't help but hesitate for a moment. She had some doubts in her heart, whether Vera had just played a beautiful trick to retreat in order to advance. But then she gave up the idea. If it was Adele, then Adeline
If it's a bunch of vixens, that's possible.
As for Vera? There is no such thing in her simple mind~!
At this time, Hilmelia pulled Lorraine and said: "Look, the main event has begun."
Lorraine looked up.
I saw the fine auctioneer straighten his clothes, then tugged at the tie around his neck, and said: "The auction items that will be auctioned below are of great historical significance. At the same time, our Feiying Company declares that these auction items were sold today for
All proceeds will be donated to Nai’an Church for charity activities.”
After hearing his words, the audience immediately burst into warm applause.
No matter what era, as long as you show "hypocrisy" or "charity", people will highly appreciate it.
They don't know, or some people know, but they don't reveal the secret. For example, although the donation proceeds are given to churches, foundations, etc., all of these accounts are for Hilmelia.
Si gave birth to a son, bah bah bah bah. His Majesty the Pope’s adopted son used milk powder, diapers, etc. as his daily living expenses.
At this time, the goblin continued: "Okay, gentlemen and ladies, our second auction item today~!"
The master of ceremonies came up holding a mysterious object covered with red cloth and placed it on the table next to the auctioneer.
The goblin auctioneer vigorously lifted the red cloth and looked at the things on the table. There was a commotion in the venue.
"What are you doing, bringing an ordinary tea set out to fool people?"
"Don't you have nothing left?"
"…………"
There is indeed an ordinary white porcelain tea set on the table. Although this kind of tea set imported from the far east and across the ocean is very valuable, I am not an ordinary person. I have two sets at home.
The goblin auctioneer said confidently: "Yes, this is indeed an ordinary white porcelain tea set, but what I want to tell you is the user of this tea set."
The goblin auctioneer paused and said loudly: "That is our Pope, His Majesty Niodos."
There was a moment of silence below, and then a strong roar erupted.
After more than a thousand years of unremitting propaganda and indoctrination by the Holy See, in the minds of the world, the Pope is the messenger of the God of Light, and he is the real god. Things that have been used by gods are not bad, and they must have some air of glory on them.
Lorraine pointed to the stage in surprise, then to Hilmelia, and finally said in a dumbfounded voice: "Leo did this again, right?"
Hilmelia nodded with a smile and said: "Leo said he was going to hold an unprecedented auction and asked me for these things. I originally said I didn't agree, but in the end that little hooligan just got rid of it.
Rolling on the ground.
There was no other way. After asking him to promise to donate the money from the sale, I promised him."
Lorraine thought to herself, no wonder Hilmelia had to come to this auction venue to take a look. It turned out that all the items sold were Hilmelia's things.
Looking at the tea set on the table, Lorraine rubbed her chin and said, "But, I don't remember you using that set."
When Hilmelia was in Naian, she had been living with Lorraine and the others, and Lorraine still had an impression of some daily things.
Hilmelia smiled brilliantly and said: "You are stupid, I can't take out the things from the Governor's Palace, they are all marked."
Catherine and Adele have very high taste requirements, so the things used in the Governor's Palace are all custom-made by them. Many of them are shipped from Rumain or Constantine, and they are all marked with the exclusive logo of the Governor's Palace.
Some are even items used by the royal family.
If these things were put up for sale, people would have bad associations with them.
Hilmelia seemed to have remembered something ridiculous, covering her mouth and laughing: "This is not a lie, Leo bought a tea set on the street, and we used it to make tea today. Strictly speaking
Yes, it is indeed something I have used."
The goblin auctioneer looked at the red-eyed people below and said happily in his heart: It's done.
Then he banged the gavel and said loudly: "The starting price is one hundred gold coins, there is no limit to the increase. The auction begins. Let me declare once again that this is a charity auction, and all the money will be donated to the church."
"Two hundred" someone said weakly. He also knew that this price was impossible and he didn't have the strength to speak.
"one thousand."
"Ten thousand~!" Someone shouted with a loud voice.
"Fifty thousand." This one sounded louder than his.
In the end, this tea set was sold for 120,000 yuan, which is probably the most expensive tea set known in the world.
Hilmelia is obviously very happy. The people here are so supportive, which also shows that she, the pope, has a high status in the hearts of everyone.
After seeing that the atmosphere at the scene was ignited, the auctioneer waved directly and shouted: "The next item."
Several people came up carrying a large desk with noisy sounds and placed it on the table with a thud.
The desk that is made entirely of solid wood is obviously of unclear weight.
This book nose used by His Majesty the Pope himself was auctioned for 180,000 yuan.
Lorraine sighed below, when did the people under his control become so rich? It seems that they have been fat enough and they need to be shaved off.
The goblin auctioneer's excited face was green, almost the same color as fresh vegetables. He banged his gavel and said: "The next item is also the last piece of cypress in this auction. The value is and
The meaning is unparalleled, and this is the sacred book used by His Majesty the Pope."
"Ah?" Someone below stood up and shouted loudly: "You don't want to sell the bed where the Pope slept?"
Lorraine couldn't catch her breath after hearing this, and coughed several times in succession. She stared at the guy in front of him who made the noise and raised his fingers at the entourage behind him.
The attendant leaned over and said, "Sir."
Lorraine pointed at the guy and said: "Wait a minute, let the relevant departments come to him for tea. Go to their house to check the water meter and gas."
The attendant gave a knowing smile and nodded: "Yes, sir."
Lorraine said angrily: "You are so bold."
When Hilmelia first arrived in Naian, she was often pestered by some pretentious huāhuā young men because of her stunning beauty. In the world, there is indeed a type of men who rely on women for their livelihood.
They sent flowers and things, and even after being warned, some guys still refused to change their ways.
This gave Hilmelia a headache. If she were at Maple Leaf Danlin Academy, she would have thrown these people into the solitary room.
But in Naian, we can only leave it to Lorraine.
After the water meters were checked at the homes of several of the most famous Mr. Hehuā and then mysteriously disappeared, these people knew they had hit an iron plate and ran away quickly.
However, Lorraine would not let them go. Anyone who had entangled Hilmelia would either be thrown into the Beni River and fed to the bastard, or they would be thrown into the quarry by throwing rocks. It is estimated that they will have to walk out of the quarry sideways in the future.
The goblin auctioneer could only ignore the guy and said to himself: "This sacred book was carried by His Majesty the Pope when he was in Naian. It not only has His Majesty's signature, but also some of His Majesty's insights.
"The value of this book is inestimable"... Lorraine Lara Hilmelia said curiously: "Is this really the book you use? I remember that the sacred book published by the Holy See is not a self-defense weapon? It is specially used to sharpen during a fight.
Human face.”
Hilmelia rolled her eyes at Lorraine angrily, pinched Lorraine's waist, and said harshly: "What nonsense are you talking about? If we print it better, it can be used for a few more years."
As for this book, it is my textbook when I was in Maple Leaf Danlin, and I wrote a lot of class notes in it. I don’t know how that little gangster Leo found it."
The value of the sacred book used by the pope, especially the first female pope, is immeasurable, and it will become more and more valuable as time goes by. If you take it back, it can be used as a family heirloom.
Passed down from generation to generation.
But in the end, it is very likely that some unscrupulous descendant took the antiques and sold them for 150 yuan.
The auction price was as high as 500,000, and the bidding continued.
Hilmelia patted Lorraine and said, "Let's go, it's time to go back."
Lorraine said in surprise: "Don't you see what the final price will be?"
Hilmelia stood up, stretched out, and said with a satisfied smile: "No, I'm already very happy. Let's go, I have to go out again tomorrow."
The Pope's guard of honor was about to arrive, but Hilmelia had to leave Nidel first.
She needed to meet up with the Pope's honor guard and come back again.
In other places, of course she could use a stand-in, but no one has seen her anyway. There are several decades-old foxes covering her up, so she is not afraid of being recognized.
This is not possible in Nai'an.
Hilmelia has traveled to many places and met many people in Naian.
Not to mention that she often held public mass in person, met with believers who came to see her, and had close contact with many ordinary people.
If someone recognizes the substitute as a fake when getting off the ship, it will be a serious problem.
xx,x,x,x
Early in the morning, soldiers blew loud horns on the city walls. Naider City has been cleaned up in the past few days, and fresh flowers and colorful ribbons have decorated the city into a sea of joy.
Today is the day when the Pope’s guard of honor comes to Naian.
Last night, some devout believers camped out in the port area of Naidel in order to get a front-row seat and see the Pope and his entourage up close.
And more people left their homes at dawn and headed toward the port.
When the sun fully rose, the area near Naider's port was already covered with densely packed human heads, without even a single gap in the middle.
The sky was clear, cloudless, and visibility was very good.
When Lorraine climbed to the top of the city, he couldn't help but be shocked by the scene in front of him. All the people who appeared in front of him were people.
Not only the port area, but also the river bank near the port was full of people, and the black heads covered the original color of the earth.
The sea outside the port is filled with ships of all sizes. Although the number is huge, they are arranged neatly, with a wide waterway flowing out in the middle.
The boat was also crowded with people, waiting to receive the Pope's ceremony.
In the entire port area, there were a total of 800,000 people waiting for the Pope's arrival.
Lorraine had made a lot of preparations for this day. With 800,000 people standing together, the slightest movement would lead to a stampede with heavy casualties.
For this reason, almost all the troops were sent out to maintain order at the venue.
There was still a shortage of people down here, so Lorraine couldn't help it, so he simply gave a red sleeve band to the employees of the Flying Eagle Group and organized them to go to the venue to maintain order.
But contrary to Lorraine's expectation, the expected noisy and noisy scene did not appear.
All 800,000 people stood quietly. There were no quarrels, fights, or petty incidents.
There is no such thing as a little gangster to take advantage of a big girl or her little wife.
There was only a low hum in the entire area.
Lorraine thought about it and could only attribute the reason to their firm belief that if they do bad things near the messenger of God, they will definitely go to hell.
Pier 1 in the port area has been completely cleared. Except for the pilot, no ship is still parked there.
At this time, everyone on the city tower had already seen the huge fleet carrying Hilmelia and her party.!
