The beautiful young man murmured to himself, leaning forward, and his careless eyes suddenly shrank into needlepoints.
The spear on the stand felt too familiar to him. Maybe to other people, it was just a spear, but to the beautiful boy, what he saw was something else.
"It shouldn't be. Why would such a thing appear in such a place? Could it be that it has been more than ten years? Could it be that the emperor..."
The beautiful young man's heart moved, and he suddenly turned around and looked at a smart maid beside him:
"Xiaozhu, you have followed me for many years. Please help me take a closer look. Is this actually that thing?"
"That thing?"
The girl who was called Xiaozhu had a look of surprise. Her eyes were as smart as if they were alive and full of aura. Suddenly, as if she thought of something, she took a step forward, leaned forward, looked forward, and looked
Surprised and uncertain.
Xiaozhu looked in disbelief. But what was even more shocking was that the word "princess" in her mouth revealed the identity of this beautiful young man.
It turns out that this handsome young man who is even more beautiful than a woman is actually a woman, just in cross-dressing.
There are no princesses in Taiyuanzhou, so even the children of King Taiyuan can only be called princess. Only royal daughters are worthy of the title princess.
Nowadays, there is only one royal princess who has been relegated to Taiyuanzhou, and that is Princess Longwu of the royal family.
"It's too far away to see clearly, but it looks so similar."
Princess Longwu murmured to herself, with shock still in her beautiful eyes. Today she finally managed to get rid of several royal servants, and quietly brought her personal maid to the Wan Guan Tower to have some fun.
But Long Wu never expected that he would see such a thing here.
It is rumored that my royal brother has been secretly armed. He has raised an extremely powerful force, eliminating dissidents everywhere, and fighting against dissenters with the same party.
In the royal family, it is taboo to raise troops privately. Ten years ago, that man also began to restrain himself, and news of the legendary power also began to spread.
Although there are many rumors, no evidence has ever been caught. Even if there is evidence, it is intercepted and killed halfway. Since then, there has been no news.
Long Wu never expected that he would see such a thing here, in a low-level auction. It seemed that that person had begun to use that forbidden power again.
If this is the case, it is not a trivial matter. There must be a conspiracy in it!
However, Long Wu still couldn't believe that this really belonged to that army. Whether it was what he thought it was, he would know as soon as he got it in his hands.
Thinking of this, Princess Longwu slowly looked at the spear on the stand.
"Seventeen Star Pills!"
"Eighteen Star Pills!"
…
The auction outside the large black floor-to-ceiling glazed wall is still going on, but the intervals between bids are getting longer and longer. Obviously, this is close to the bottom limit of this iron mother spear.
Although iron mother is precious, it is still valuable after all.
"Eighteen Star Pills! Eighteen Star Pills... Are there any bids yet?"
The voice of the white-haired old man was loud and clear, and his eyes flashed like lightning, passing through the dark rooms.
"Almost, eighteen Star Pills are almost there. Much higher than I expected. After deducting the commission for the auction house, there are still fourteen Star Pills."
Yang Ji was secretly happy.
The auction price of the eighteen Star Pills was already much higher than he imagined. This was also because of the involvement of noble families. Otherwise, it would never have been so high.
This is the first huge amount of wealth that Yang Ji has gained in his life. After tax, fourteen Star Pills are enough for him to buy a lot of things in the club on the first floor and underground.
The only problem is that it seems a bit reluctant to auction the iron tree demon core with these wealth. However, if you want to do it well, it is not impossible for you to take the auction if you waste all the alchemist's money before the auction.
At least, except for the alchemist, there should be no one who can compete with me.
"Forty Star Pills!"
Just when Yang Ji felt a little quiet in his heart and the auction house was silent, waiting for the next increase in price, a woman's decisive voice suddenly sounded in the darkness.
"Buzz!"
As soon as this quotation came out, there was a buzz around it, mixed with many incredible voices. Those who were originally planning to increase the price to nineteen Star Pills also gave up their bid.
The price of forty Star Pills is far more than the price of an Iron Mother Spear. This is a spear, not a magical weapon. If it were a terrifyingly powerful gun-shaped black iron blood magical weapon, someone might still pay this price.
.
But for just a spear, not even aristocratic families would pay this price.
This is not a question of whether it can be afforded, but a question of whether it is worth it. Aristocratic families and nobles may be generous, but they are not stupid, let alone fools.
This is beyond reasonable limits.
"Hey, that's interesting. Forty Star Pills, who paid this price?"
"It seems that someone has taken advantage of me."
"Is it worth buying an iron gun for forty Xingxingdan?".
…
There was a lot of discussion all around, and the voices were very low. Under the protection of the auction pavilion, no one knew who was bidding or who was speaking.
At this moment, even Yang Ji was shocked.
"Forty Star Pills? How could..."
Yang Ji looked surprised and could hardly believe his ears.
After seeing the purchasing power of each Xingxiu Pill in Wan Guan Tower, you will understand more about what a huge fortune forty Xingxiu Pills are.
Although Yang Ji also hoped that the Iron Mother Spear would fetch a high price, the price of forty Star Pills was still beyond his expectation. It was almost twice as much as that of the Rock Demon Puppet.
"I wonder why the price is so high?"
Under normal circumstances, the Iron Mother Spear is not worth the price at all. Yang Ji had some vague thoughts in his mind, but in his haste, it was difficult to capture them clearly.
"Hey, forget about it. No matter who the other party is, or what purpose he has, or what he is using it for... Anyway, these forty Star Pills are in my hands, and they can't escape."
Yang Ji shook his head and smiled.
He didn't need to worry about what the other party wanted to do. The rules of Wan Guan Tower were actually auctioned, so how could he get the forty Xingxiu Pills in his hands.
You can't run away from this.
"Forty Star Pills for the first time!"
"Forty Star Pills for the second time!"
…
The white-haired old man's voice rang out from the dark and silent booth. The sky-high price of forty Star Pills for an Iron Mother Spear was beyond his expectation.
After being stunned for a moment, he quickly came to his senses and his heart was filled with joy.
This is a good thing. The higher the auction price, the more commission the auction house gets. The more salary he draws.
"Is there any more? Is there any more?...No! Okay, this lot belongs to the guest in Room 108!"
The white-haired old man raised his hand and pointed at a red-lit room on the third floor of the auction pavilion. Every time a bid was made in the auction pavilion, a red light representing the room would light up for a short time.
The higher bidder replaces the lower bidder, and the red light will only light up for a short time from beginning to end. It is quite eye-catching in this dark environment.
This is also the only mark by which buyers are judged.
…
"Who is in room 108? Can Uncle Zhou find out?".
In the dark, honeycomb-like room of the auction pavilion, a young man with a handsome face, wearing a long military green coat and a large cloak, suddenly turned around and said.
This young man stood upright, like a spear. He showed the iron-blooded aura of a military family. His head was always held high, without any sense of arrogance, but giving people a convincing power.
"This... the rules of the auction pavilion, it is not easy to find the people in those rooms."
In the dark shadow in the corner of the room, stood an old man with meticulous hair and a rigid face, but extremely serious. He lowered his head and seemed to be thinking. But his brows were deeply furrowed. Apparently the boy's problem was not that serious.
Easy to solve.
"Those who can afford forty Star Pills to buy an Iron Mother Spear must be rich people. Although Taiyuanzhou is located on the border, there are still many aristocratic families and nobles. They should be those noble families.
Or he bought it from a wealthy family. - What, Master, do you think there is something wrong with him?"
The old man with a stereotyped face said.
Although this young master in the family is pampered, the old man knows very well that he does not have the same problems as other young masters from big families. On the contrary, not only is his martial arts extremely high, he is also extremely wise, and he can often see things in small ways and detect things from small things.
"hey-hey."
The young man in military green shook his head. His handsome face was filled with wisdom and insight rarely seen among his peers, as if he could see through everything:
"It is said that aristocratic families are rich and generous, but in fact, which one can be passed down for hundreds or thousands of years? If there is endless squandering and waste, how can such a large family fortune be accumulated?"
"Your Excellency, the aristocratic family is not only not extravagant, but also quite frugal and shrewd. They will only be generous when it comes to things they like. But the fact is, if no one bids, who can buy it for one dollar?
Will you spend an extra two bucks?"
"The guest in Room 108 spent twice as much on something that he could have bought for only nineteen or twenty Xingxing Dan. Isn't this the style of a noble family?"
The young man in military green clothes smiled calmly. He had a convincing grace and charm in his movements, which made the only girl in red clothes in the room feel very excited.
"Then what's your question, young master?"
The old man with a rigid face frowned and said. He still didn't understand what his young master meant.
"Haha, anyone who can casually take out forty Xingxiu Pills is definitely not an idiot, and an idiot can't accumulate the wealth of forty Xingxiu Pills. In my opinion, there must be something wrong with that spear. At least it is not just made of iron mother.
It’s so simple.”
The young man in military green looked at the iron mother spear on the exhibition stand and showed a confident and calm smile.
"Then young master, do we want to take a picture of that spear?"
The old man with a stereotyped face was moved in his heart and asked immediately. As a member of a military family, his net worth is also not small, and because he often fights on the border and kills powerful enemies, he also gets a lot of good things from his opponents.
It is still possible to obtain forty constellation danna.
"No need!"
The young man in military green raised a palm and waved his hand with a smile:
"Even if we get this kind of thing, we can't see its reputation. What I'm interested in is the person who took out this spear for auction."
"The person in Room 108 is definitely not from Taiyuanzhou, and the thing that allows him to take out 40 Star Pills to buy is probably not from Taiyuanzhou. I'm just curious, where did he get this from?
Planting something?”
The young man in military green said calmly, with an interesting expression on his lips.
Walking to the large black floor-to-ceiling glazed wall, his eyes slowly scanned the dark honeycomb-like rooms of the auction pavilion outside.
He had a feeling that the person who was auctioning the Iron Mother Spear was probably in a room here, watching the entire auction. (To be continued...)
