Even though the managers of the organizer usually hold high positions and are in charge of hundreds of millions of wealth, they are still completely different from Sissi. Now they can take advantage of the opportunity of sending "Pulp Fiction" to meet her.
They looked familiar, so a dispute broke out. If they hadn't remembered their identities, they would have fought each other with fists and kicks.
"That's enough, send it over quickly, don't keep His Highness waiting!"
In the end, the chief executive with the highest status got the opportunity and hurried away excitedly.
"Here!"
Sissi took the novel, flipped through it a few times, and handed it to Downton.
When the manager saw Homer put away the novel, his eyelids jumped. This was an auction item worth 200 million, and His Highness actually gave it away as he said. Downton's bad luck was simply too overbearing.
"How much is two hundred million?"
The little girl asked. In her mind, one hundred gold coins was a sky-high price.
"Well, if you exchange it for bacon, you can spread it all over London!"
Hutao was not clever, but simply didn't know how to describe it, so he simply chose the stupidest conversion method, which was very intuitive.
"Ah? So much? How long can it last?" The little girl was dumbfounded and murmured subconsciously, "If it were replaced with black bread, wouldn't it be possible to spread it ten layers?"
The little girl's family is relatively poor and can only eat meat once a year, so she knows that it is a very expensive thing and can buy a lot of bread.
"Do you want to be my sister?"
Black bread is the lowest quality food, mixed with a lot of sand and gravel. It is not only good for filling the stomach, but also terrible to eat. Elaine remembered that when she was a child, her brother always kept the best for himself, and then ate the black bread by himself.
"I don't want to leave mom!"
The little girl knows that she can live a good life by following this big sister. But she doesn't want to let her mother go.
"Good boy!"
Elaine touched the little girl's forehead.
"Your Highness, what can I do for you?" Wucuo Novel Network did not skip words.
The principal maintained his sense of presence. Although he was ignored by Sissi, he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction and still stood respectfully by the door.
Outside the door were the six secretaries in charge. If they knew that their always strong boss had become so groveling, they would be so surprised that their eyes would pop out.
"The sixteenth auction item, Brilliant Crystal, comes from the plane of heaven. It has extremely strong purification ability and can dispel all unclean effects and curses. It can allow the user to directly advance to a higher level and combine with the priest.
They complement each other even more. It can produce unexpected magical effects. If a pregnant woman takes it, the child she gives birth to will definitely have sacred blood!"
Before the auctioneer finished speaking, Sissi had already stood up. She was determined to get this crystal because it had a miraculous effect on Downton.
Other nobles were also discussing excitedly. Especially those without family blood, all looking forward to becoming stronger with the next generation.
It can be said that what this crystal brings is a bloodline and an eternal wealth!
What do the parents want to leave behind? It is not a large amount of inheritance, because the inheritance will eventually be exhausted. What they want to leave to their children and grandchildren is an opportunity. A bloodline means that even if the family declines again, it will have the opportunity to make a comeback.
"The base price is one billion gold coins, and each increase will not be less than 10 million gold coins. The bidding begins!"
The auctioneer's announcement directly made two-thirds of the nobles in the hall look pale. They couldn't afford such a sky-high price. Just when someone gritted his teeth and decided to vomit blood and bid, the Rockefeller family spoke.
"1.5 billion!"
The hall suddenly fell into silence, and everyone's eyes fell on young Rockefeller. He was holding a red wine glass and greeting people, as if the brilliant crystal was already in his bag.
"This kind of pride, tsk tsk, really hope needs money to maintain it!"
The nobles gave up in despair. They should have thought long ago that only wealthy families could bid for this kind of item.
"Six billion!"
Othello speaks, and the White Rose family takes action, which is extraordinary.
"Aren't you going to bid?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.
Seeing the wealthy families competing for it, Princess Freya asked the red Archbishop Mancini beside her, "If you give it to the Saint, your chances of sitting on the Pope's seat will be much higher."
"Downton's bloodline is the flame of heaven."
Mancini looked at the box where Downton was sitting, and one sentence clarified everything. Downton fought in the east and west, destroyed several countries, and robbed countless wealth, not to mention there was a free trade that was making money every day.
District, in just a few years, he has become the richest man in the north. Besides, even if he is a pauper, there is still Sissi.
"Sissi, who is completely devoted to Downton, will definitely get the Brilliant Crystal at all costs. I'd better not join in the fun as a poor guy."
Mancini joked.
"Thirty-six billion!"
Little Rockefeller continued to bid, but Othello hesitated. There were many treasures that could give birth to blood, and he did not want to spend too much money. After all, the auction did not even reach a third of the price. Who knows if there will be better things later.
"give up!"
Othello nodded towards Little Locke, "Your opponent hasn't made a move yet!"
"I know."
Little Locke curled his lips, and sure enough, the next moment, he heard an offer of four billion.
No one is amazed, because Sissi's wealthy style has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Compared with wealth, Bavarian Rose is ranked second, and no one dares to call it first.
"Four.1 billion gold coins!"
Little Locke added.
"Wait, let me do it!"
Downton stopped Sissi and motioned to Elaine to raise her sign. He didn't want to be treated as a softie.
"You are too outspoken!"
Sissi frowned.
"Four.2 billion gold coins!"
Elaine was very nervous and her voice changed a bit. She had no choice but to do so. She had never transferred so much money. Even if the Bloody Queen gave her fiefdoms in five big cities, she was still the frugal girl next door.
"Oops, I forgot. The price is increased by ten million at a time. Am I shouting too much?"
Elaine asked Sissi.
"It's too little!"
As soon as Sissi finished speaking, Little Locke shouted out 4.5 billion, "With a wealthy family as your opponent, you have to show the momentum of burning the boat down!"
"Shout five billion!"
Downton wants a quick victory.
"Duke Downton, congratulations!"
Little Locke gave up and raised his glass to Downton.
"Five billion twice. Is there anyone else bidding?"
The auction is getting ready for the hammer to fall.
Just when the nobles thought the dust had settled and were congratulating Downton one after another, a loud voice echoed through the hall.
"Fifty-five billion!"
The nobles turned their heads and saw the one who spoke was the blond Ciel.
"Master!"
The old butler who followed Charles was shocked. The seller of this brilliant crystal was the Stuttgart family. Although they tried to cover it up a few times, if someone dug it out, the family's reputation would be ruined.
"What do you know? The value of this crystal to ordinary people is only this amount, but to Downton, it is at least 7 billion. I will not let him take advantage of the family."
Ciel gritted his teeth.
Downton started to increase the price by 110 million, and Shire kept up with the price increase, and soon the number soared to 8 billion.
"Master, that's enough. If Downton doesn't want it anymore, we will smash the crystal into our hands."
The old housekeeper persuaded.
"No, Downton doesn't want it, and Sissi, you don't know, Sissi once spent 30 billion to buy a Supreme Lord of the Rings for him!"
Thinking of this incident, Charles went crazy with jealousy.
"Why don't you bid?"
Sissi saw that Downton was hesitant and wanted to help him.
"No more."
Downton stopped.
"Why? That crystal will be of great help to you!"
Once the gold coins are gone, you can earn them again. But once you reach the level of Downton, it will be difficult to rise again. Sissi also wants to see Downton break the record of being the fastest to reach the realm of Saint Aoxun.
"not worth it."
Downton shook his head, "I am not a tyrant. I have more than eight billion gold coins. I can improve many domestic facilities and make the people's lives better."
"My money is yours."
Sissi is very stubborn.
"never mind!"
Elaine is also discouraging.
The principal standing by was drooling with envy. Being loved by Sissy, Downton could reach the pinnacle of life even without struggling. Others who had been around for dozens of lives were not as good as him.
"More than eight billion is a waste." Homer joked, "It takes courage to be taken advantage of in front of so many people."
"Master, something's not right!"
The old housekeeper was sweating on his forehead. If he bought it by himself, the agency fee alone would be hundreds of millions. This would be a pure loss.
"Huh, Downton is cheating."
Charles seemed calm, but in fact he was feeling uneasy, so he said, "Downton, this is the foundation of a wealthy family. Without Sissi, you are nothing!"
"What did you say?"
Hutao rolled up his sleeves and was ready to get out of the box and beat someone up.
Charles gave a middle finger gesture.
"Okay, 8.5 billion, if you have the guts, keep following!"
Downton pretended to be vicious and gave him the middle finger in return.
"Nine billion!"
Charles smiled proudly, Downton was just a muscular idiot with a simple mind, wasn't he being manipulated by him?
"Nine and a half billion!"
Bang, Downton leaned on the railing with his hands and stared at Charles angrily, with veins popping up on his forehead, "This Duke has a free trade zone and makes a lot of money every day. Why am I afraid of you, a slave trader?"
"Who are you calling a slave trader?" Charles was also annoyed, "Ten billion, sorry, compared to wealth? I also have a lot of gold coins!"
"Okay, then you can buy it!"
Downton shrugged his shoulders and sat back in the box.
"Ah? What's going on?"
The nobles who were waiting to see the good show were dumbfounded. What had they agreed to fight to death? Who would not be their grandson? Why did Downton suddenly give up?
"you……"
Charles's hands and feet suddenly became cold, and his body trembled uncontrollably. He knew that he had been tricked. Ten billion gold coins, and the commission alone would cost hundreds of millions.
Plop!
The old housekeeper was even more decisive. He spurted out a mouthful of blood and fainted to the ground.
"Go check the seller of that crystal!"
Sissi ordered, and she also saw that something was wrong. At first she thought that Charles was deliberately raising the price to cause trouble, but now it seems that it is most likely a trap.
"Aren't you afraid that Marquis Charles will not follow?"
The boss asked in a playful manner.
"Then I'll buy it!"
If Charles hadn't run against Downton, he wouldn't have been able to discover the opponent's little tricks. After all, under the mirror, emotional fluctuations will also show up.
"Congratulations, Marquis Charles!"
In order not to expose his flaws, Charles smiled and accepted the compliments from the nobles, but in his heart he already wanted to rush forward and kill Downton.
"The next auction item can be said to be of immeasurable value. I believe everyone has heard of Guns N' Roses. It is currently the most popular air transportation company on the mainland, and its development is based on airship technology. Now,
An opportunity presented itself to transcend it."
The auctioneer moved his lips and aroused the emotions of the nobles, "This is the blueprint of the Warsong Battleship. It comes from the highest magical civilization Netheril and is the crystallization of the pinnacle of magical technology. According to professional estimates, the cost of a Warsong Battleship is only a few hundred million gold coins.
, but the benefits it brings are hundreds or thousands of times."
Wow!
Discussions arose in the hall. In the past year, the name of Guns N' Roses has frequently appeared in major newspapers. As the first company to conquer the blue sky and develop the tourism transportation industry into the sky, the wealth it has gained is huge.
Many business groups have studied and found that this is a brand new industry. As long as you have an airship, you can join. In addition to economic benefits, it also has great strategic significance. If it is not passengers, but soldiers, war supplies, and even
It was a bombing, and the consequences would be absolutely terrible.
Downton destroyed two countries with battleships, which is the best proof.
Only the nine empires have air fleets. Maintaining them requires huge military expenditures, but it is not necessary to deal with second-rate countries. Therefore, the fleets are mostly a deterrent force. However, after the emergence of Guns and Roses, various countries gradually began to increase the use of their air forces.
Invest.
"The base price is 100 million gold coins, and each increase will be no less than 5 million!"
The price quoted by the auctioneer was less than expected, but this is understandable. Things like drawings have different values in the hands of different people.
"Do those magical technical barriers still exist? With today's technology, it may not be possible to restore the Warsong battleship, right? There are many words on Wuyou Novel Network"
Othello inquires.
"Don't worry, this drawing is very detailed. Even a factory in a second-rate country can produce it!" the auctioneer assured.
"One billion!"
Charles couldn't wait to speak. His family made its fortune as a slave-catching group, and later its business areas were land transportation and shipping, so he knew what a huge threat air transportation would be to his family. They once offered Guns N' Roses at a high price.
The drawings of the battleship were unfortunately rejected.
The princes of the second-rate countries raised their placards excitedly, but then they were silenced by the wealthy nobles who opened their mouths one after another. Everyone wanted this blueprint.
"Ten billion!"
Charles bit his lip and quoted the price. His eyes were bloodshot, as if if anyone opened his mouth again, he would rush forward and bite him like a mad dog.
"Eleven billion!"
Sissi's voice was cold, "Don't think about it, I won't let anyone threaten my Guns N' Roses!"
"Twelve billion!"
Charles snorted coldly, an offer is the simplest reply.
"Fifteen billion!"
Sissi raised her chin proudly.
"Twenty billion!"
Ciel roared and squeezed the bidding card so hard that water would come out of it.
Everyone in the audience exclaimed that this price was the highest today.
Sissi was silent.
Charles originally wanted to say a few words and vent, but thinking of Sissi's worth, he shut his mouth again. The most important thing now is to get the drawings quickly.
"let me!"
Downton wanted to raise his sign, but Sissi held his hand.
"That's not necessary!"
Sissi blinked her eyes mischievously, while Hu Tao was still confused. The smart Elaine had already understood that the seller of the drawing was definitely related to Sissi. (To be continued...)
