Episode 12 The Mystery of the Dwarves Section 6 Auction 3
"Don't worry, sir, everything is ready. I have hosted many auctions, and I will definitely get a good price." The person in charge of the auction said respectfully, and Corey replied coldly: "Stand straight for me.
Yes, the price doesn’t matter, as long as you don’t mess with it.”
"Keep this in mind, little man."
Corey stood in front of the stage, coughed and said: "Although it is an auction, according to His Majesty's wishes, the six chief officers have worked hard and have made great contributions. Your Majesty will reward each of them with a fishing boat. Together with the Prime Minister, the Kingdom Marshal, there are eight boats in total.
Boat. Sir, please sit on the stage, there is no need to participate in the auction."
Before Corey finished speaking, there were murmurs in the audience.
Some people envy these eight ministers who got them without spending any money, but smart people understand that the Kingdom Marshal Muharin is not included, and the other seven people are from big families who are not very wealthy. If they really want to be filmed, I am afraid they will be.
Others may not have the chance, so even the seven-person family can no longer buy it.
Chairs and tables were quickly prepared on the stage, and fine wine and fruits were placed. Eight ministers came up one after another. Corey could clearly see the dark circles under the eyes of the six chief ministers. It was obvious that he had not slept well last night, and he was secretly happy in his heart.
While Corey was also sitting on the chair, the person in charge of the auction gestured for someone to lift up a shelf. There were dozens of ship models on the shelf, and each ship model was stamped with the emperor's seal. This was proof of authorization.
Owning this is equivalent to owning a fishing boat.
First, eight ship models were placed in front of the eight ministers. Then the auction host placed one ship model on the high table on the stage and opened a nautical chart, which had forty-five ship models marked on it.
Then he shouted loudly: "Princess Watts Island is one hundred and fifty kilometers east, with a range of seventy-six kilometers. For details, please see the No. 1 sea area in your hands. The starting price is ten thousand magic crystal coins."
After the auction started, Corey pulled a chair close to the six ministers and opened his collar: "Look at me, I'm so pitiful, my whole body is trembling when I hear Princess Watts Island."
Seeing the bite marks on Keri's neck and the scratches on his arms, the six chief officers who originally wanted to find some sympathy from Keri shook their heads helplessly: "This princess is still the same as when she was a child.
Just as terrible, Prince Corey, we, we sympathize with you."
"Yes, yes." Corey pretended to look extremely pitiful.
At this time, the Prime Minister and Amu learned that Watts went to the homes of several ministers last night to cause a scene. The two looked at each other and smiled. It can be said that everyone understood.
Soon, dozens of fishing boats had buyers, and the prices were higher or lower depending on the sea area. But just when many nobles were about to leave in disappointment, another shelf was put up.
It also has the emperor's seal on it.
Corey stood up again at this time. Pointing to the uncolored areas on the chart, he said: "These places have not been explored yet. No one knows how many fish there are or what kind of fish there are. It's just that
I know there are no powerful monsters around, so let’s take pictures of a hundred ships.” After saying that, Corey picked up a ship model and placed it on the table in front of him.
The disappointment of the nobles who had not bought the ship was swept away, and they all excitedly shouted long live His Majesty the Emperor.
"Several adults, if you are interested, you can also join in the fun. You can also ask my nephews to have fun." Corey returned to the chair and said softly to the chief officer of the Sixth Department.
"Well, then I won't chat with Mr. Kerui." After saying that, except for the Prime Minister who asked his entourage to deliver the message, Amu sat there motionless, and the six chief officers all left the auction in person to enjoy the hot atmosphere of the auction.
Already.
"This is over, there are still sixty expedition ships, hehe." Corey smiled evilly at the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister thought to himself, this guy really has a way of making money. He claims to be the second in the mainland, so who can
I dare not say that I am number one.
The Prime Minister looked through the auction description in his hand and found no description about the expedition ship. He came closer and asked Corey: "How are you going to auction these things? Why didn't you explain it in advance?"
"Hey, these sixty expedition ships should be sold at least for the price of 200,000 magic crystal coins, because I have this." Corey said and took out an ancient scroll from his arms. The Prime Minister took it and said,
With his magic power, he can open this kind of sealed scroll and understand the ancient characters on it. After reading it, he was secretly surprised and asked: "Is this true? Then this kind of record is worth millions of demons, let alone 200,000 yuan."
Crystal coins."
Hearing what the Prime Minister said, Amudou opened his eyes unmoved.
"Marshal Muharlin, look at this. Seven hundred kilometers east of Princess Watts Island, there is a sea area full of storms. It was the channel for foreigners to trade with us more than 10,000 years ago, but this storm
There are countless terrifying and powerful monsters inside, and countless ships were sunk here more than 10,000 years ago." The Prime Minister read what was recorded in the scroll.
Ammu was shocked and asked Corey: "Have you seen that place yourself?"
"I have not been there personally, but the first time I went to sea, the ship was damaged by a storm. The storm came from the place in this record. Smollett led a team there once, and when he came back, the ship was very damaged. He
He told me that he was not close to the storm at all, but only dived a few times on the relatively calm sea bottom. Although he did not go in, he also brought back a small box of gems. This gem is something I have never seen before." Corey said with a look on his face.
Said seriously.
The Prime Minister was a little confused: "You can explore on your own. You have the strongest fleet and the best boatmen, so why not explore on your own."
"My mind is not here. The result of the expedition is to discover some treasures at most, and I don't want to waste my manpower on it." Corey said, placing a few gems in front of the two of them.
As a great mage, Prime Minister Mulla has seen countless gems, but these few gems, which are not big and have ordinary colors, surprised him greatly. The extremely powerful magic power on the gems made the Prime Minister unable to bear it.
He exclaimed in surprise.
The extremely heated atmosphere in the auction house was silenced by the Prime Minister's exclamation. Everyone could hear clearly that what the Prime Minister said was that this gem was a thousand times more powerful than the best magic crystal in the mainland. Suddenly, a sudden
The noble roared: "I'll pay fifty thousand magic crystal coins for that gem."
"I'm seventy thousand."
Everyone knows that the Prime Minister has a high level of knowledge and is one of the few great magicians. What he said cannot be a lie, especially how could the thing that surprised even the knowledgeable Prime Minister be an ordinary thing?
Where is the product?
When the person in charge of the auction saw that the venue was about to become chaotic, he hurriedly shouted loudly: "Everyone, be quiet. Those are the next batch of auction items. Please wait patiently." After shouting, he immediately called for arrest.
Four more models of fishing boats were moved on the stage: "Five of them will be auctioned together. Who will bid on these five free fishing boats?"
