This is a very high-end club, with an internal area larger than two football fields.
The clubhouse adopts a vault design and there will be no pillars in the interior.
Therefore, it is very suitable for holding various large-scale dance parties or dinner parties.
At this moment, this high-end club is holding a special party - the Treasure Appraisal Party.
In the center of the venue, there are many "cylinders" regularly placed, thirty or forty centimeters in size, and a full height of about 2 meters.
There are hundreds of cylinders in total, and each one is covered with a piece of red satin.
On both sides of each cylinder, a man and a woman stood neatly, all with model-like figures and wearing staff uniforms.
On the periphery of the venue, there are 50 round tables evenly distributed, each table has a large number plate on it, marked 1~50.
These 50 round tables are where guests attending this appraisal meeting will sit.
A total of 50 invitation tickets were issued by the Treasure Appraisal Club, which corresponded to 50 round tables.
More than half of the guests have already entered, and they are led by the staff to the table with the corresponding serial number according to the serial number on the invitation ticket.
Each guest present is usually accompanied by 1 to 3 people, wearing all kinds of expensive clothes.
Su Baichuan, Su Qingning, Jiang Hong and Lu Dong also entered the venue.
According to the serial number of the invitation ticket, the staff took them to round table No. 10.
Lu Dong glanced at the entire audience and couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Because he saw the white brilliance that represented Ming Jin on more than half of the guests, and a few had the dark golden brilliance that represented Dark Jin.
It's just that the distance is too far, and Shenmu did not provide detailed martial arts information about them.
Some of these warriors come from the four major martial arts families, while others are individuals who have inherited martial arts through various opportunities.
We rarely see each other on weekdays, but now we are all together!
"Is the cylinder over there a special display cabinet?"
Lu Dong turned his attention to the hundreds of cylinders in the middle of the venue and asked.
Su Baichuan replied: "Yes, they are all made of bulletproof glass. We will uncover them one by one when filming starts."
"There are hundreds of lots in total, and each lot has 10 minutes of observation time. Can this be completed?"
Lu Dong looked at nearly a hundred cylinders and couldn't help but frowned.
Su Baichuan explained: "It's like this. When the auction is held, we won't only auction one item at a time, but will uncover similar items at the same time."
"These cylinders are actually placed according to regions."
"For example, for the Extreme Cold Cordyceps, there may be 10 or even 20 pieces in total that will be shot at the same time, but only one of them is to introduce the 10-year Glacier Extreme Cold Cordyceps mentioned above, and the others may be the Extreme Cold Cordyceps of lower vintages.
, or even just ordinary cordyceps.”
Lu Dong asked again: "If you shoot a dozen or twenty pieces at the same time, how do you do it?"
"The auction method of the Treasure Appraisal Fair is different from ordinary auctions, and is more similar to online auctions."
"After the 10 minutes of observation time, there is 10 minutes of free bidding time."
“The auction items will be displayed on this tablet, and everyone can use their own tablets to bid.”
Su Baichuan said while pointing to a tablet placed on the table.
On each round table, in addition to abundant fresh fruits, there is also a tablet of the same style.
"oh……"
Only then did Lu Dong realize the purpose of the tablet on the table, and thought it was for guests to kill time.
After roughly understanding the auction process, Lu Dong looked at the other guests at the venue again.
Because the venue is very large, 50 round tables are distributed around the periphery, and the distance between adjacent round tables is about five or six meters.
Next door, sitting at table No. 11, were four young men in their twenties and thirties, two men and two women. They were not familiar with Su Baichuan and were discussing something among themselves.
Table No. 9 is still empty and the guests have not arrived yet.
The treasure appraisal will only start at 10 o'clock, and there are still 10 minutes left.
Su Qingning also kept looking around, and her eyes finally stopped at table 1.
"Hey, is that Ji Nanxue over at table No. 1?"
Lu Dong looked at table No. 1. There was a young woman sitting there, probably the same age as him.
Dressed in a noble white dress, with a white gauze scarf covering her face, she sat there silently, as still as still water.
Although the distance was far away, Lu Dong's eyesight was amazing and he could still see her clear and moving eyes, like a deep pool.
There is white brilliance flowing inside her body, which means that she is a bright and powerful warrior.
Unfortunately, the distance was too far and Shenmu did not give any information about her martial arts.
Next to her, there was an old woman sitting. A dark golden brilliance appeared in her body, which was An Jin.
"It is indeed Ji Nanxue."
Jiang Hong also looked in the direction of table 1 and said.
Lu Dong asked: "Who is Ji Nanxue? The Ji family from the four major martial arts families?"
He has already memorized the four major martial arts families, Ma Jihou Yang, but people with these surnames may not necessarily all belong to these four martial arts families.
"Well, she is the only daughter of the head of the Ji family. I didn't expect that she would be invited to this treasure appraisal meeting. I don't know which treasure she came for..."
There was a hint of worry in Su Baichuan's eyes.
Although the other party is only a girl of about 24 years old, her identity is enough to bring a sense of oppression to the richest man in Jiangnan.
"In addition to Ji Nanxue, there is also a person in the Hou family who cannot be underestimated..."
Jiang Hong turned his eyes towards the entrance and said slowly.
The staff was leading several customers into the venue. The leader was a young man in his twenties, dressed in Korean style, with a rebellious look on his face.
"Hou Lixing is here too?"
When Su Baichuan saw this young man, the worry in his eyes became more intense. It seemed that he was more oppressive than Ji Nanxue, the only daughter of the head of the Ji family.
"Isn't Hou Lixing the son of the head of the Hou family?"
Lu Dong saw that the white brilliance in Hou Lixing's body was dimmer than Ji Nanxue's.
But judging from the reactions of Su Baichuan and Jiang Hong, Hou Lixing's identity is by no means simple.
Su Qingning didn't recognize Hou Lixing either. She blinked her big eyes and waited for Su Baichuan and Jiang Hong's explanation.
Jiang Hong's eyes were half closed and he said: "Hou Lixing is not the son of the head of the Hou family, but the precious son of the elder of the Hou family, the murderer god Hou Zun."
"I hope Hou Lixing didn't come here for the extremely cold Cordyceps..."
There was a bit of sadness between Su Baichuan's brows.
"Hou Zun, the God of Killing?"
Lu Dong felt that this nickname was a bit awkward.
After all, today is a civilized society, not the ancient Warring States era.
Su Baichuan looked at Su Qingning and said to Jiang Hong, "Tell them the origin of the nickname God of Death."
Lu Dong and Su Qingning looked at Jiang Hong at the same time.
"Twenty years ago, a new martial arts family emerged in the south of the Yangtze River. It is developing rapidly. It is said that because their head accidentally obtained a fragment of an ancient kicking martial art, it is even expected to develop into the fifth martial arts family."
"On the birthday of their patriarch, the clan chartered a luxury cruise ship and the whole family went to sea to celebrate."
"As a result, the cruise ship just entered the high seas and exploded due to a malfunction. The ship was destroyed and people died."
Jiang Hong said quietly.
Regarding this unfortunate shipwreck, Lu Dong and Su Qingning had actually heard some rumors, and some people called the cruise ship "Jiangnan Titanic".
Jiang Hong lowered his voice and continued: "In the martial arts world, there is another speculation about the reason for the cruise ship accident."
"Then Hou Zun took action and massacred the entire family. His purpose was just to take away the fragment of the martial art."
"Shortly after the cruise ship sank, there was a rumor that Hou Zun brought a superior leg technique back to the Hou family."
"The nickname Hou Zun, the God of Killing, has gradually spread since then."
Lu Dong and Su Qingning were both shocked.
"Isn't it possible?!"
The whole family was massacred because of a martial art. It sounds like something that happened in the ancient martial arts world. How could it happen in today's civilized society?!
