Chapter 300 The grand party begins5000(1/2)
When the penetrating silver bells gradually died down, the venue, which had been a little noisy just now, also became quiet.
At this time, the eyes of everyone present were all directed towards the auction table in the center of the venue, either with expressions of curiosity or eyes full of enthusiasm.
On the other side, the tall figure, surrounded by several beautiful ceremonial staff, gradually became clear. It turned out to be a tall and middle-aged man with a curly beard.
We saw that he was wearing a black tuxedo, a white shirt with a black bow tie at the collar, his posture was elegant and decent, and he looked quite elegant.
“Dear distinguished guests, good afternoon, welcome to the Starry Sky Auction House of Fanyin City Commercial Land Fair. I am Baron Polly, the auctioneer this time.
On behalf of Your Excellency the Lord of Fanyin City, Your Excellency the President of Fanyin City Trade Fair, Your Excellency the President of Fanyin City Mercenary Guild, and Your Excellency the President of Fanyin City Merchant Guild, I would like to extend my best wishes to all distinguished guests.
Highest regards and greetings!”
A magnetic and loud voice sounded, and a middle-aged auctioneer named Polly bowed gracefully and performed a standard gentleman's courtesy.
He then said: "Now, I announce that this Fanyin City joint auction will now officially begin!"
Hearing this, the nobles and businessmen in the audience applauded thunderously, and also expressed their respect for the organizer.
“Lord, this is my subordinate’s uncle. He has a very good relationship with his father and takes good care of his subordinates.
At the same time, he is also the chief appraiser and chief auctioneer of the Fanyin City Phytolacca Fair. He is also a member of the Phytolacca family and one of our own."
Kelly, who had just left for a while, approached Lei Xiao again at some unknown moment and introduced him softly.
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao noticed the subtle aroma emanating from the other person's body.
At this time, Kelly had already changed out of her previous neat red outfit and put on a girly red simple princess dress.
In every gesture, it can be said that her style has completely changed, and she has a rather demure and ladylike feel.
“By the way, your lord, my uncle is a third-order, five-star starlight magician. This starry sky auction house was designed by him at that time.”
Following that, Kelly opened her red lips slightly and revealed a rather mysterious expression on her pretty face.
He softly introduced to Lei Xiao: "In addition, my uncle also masters a special kind of magic. Please wait and see, Lord."
Just when Kelly said this.
Directly opposite, a light golden magic circle in the shape of a six-pointed star slowly lit up on the spacious auction table.
Soon, a slightly dazzling light flashed by.
Over the auction stage, an enlarged version of the scene that was exactly the same as the auction stage appeared, just like a holographic projection.
On the holographic projection, the figures of the middle-aged gentleman Polly, the auctioneer, and several ceremonial women were clearly visible, and they all saluted to everyone in the audience.
“Good guy, I didn’t expect to see such a technological scene in this world.”
Looking up at the clear magic projection in front of him, Lei Xiao couldn't help but show a slightly surprised expression.
He murmured to himself: "No wonder this auction house was built so huge.
In this way, even the last row can clearly see detailed images of the auction items.”
While Lei Xiao was thinking to himself.
Another ceremonial officer walked out of the independent passage on the auction stage, holding a tray covered with golden silk in his hand.
“That should be the first auction item, right? I don’t know what it is?” Seeing this, Lei Xiao, who was sitting in the front row, nodded slightly.
Sure enough, just as Lei Xiao expected.
As the auctioneer, Baron Polly gracefully took the tray, gently opened the silk, and a small brocade box appeared in front of everyone.
“Everyone, this thing is called Strengthening Pill. It is a first-level magic potion. Its effect is that it can increase the strength of ordinary people of the first level by two to three stars.
This kind of magic potion must be a childhood memory of most people here, right? Do you still remember the unknown feeling of throbbing and excitement when you took it for the first time? "
At this time, Baron Polly smiled gracefully and opened the brocade box to display it.
He continued to introduce: "Although this first-level potion has lost its effect on most of the guests present.
However, it is perfect as a birthday gift for your children, or as a full moon party gift for relatives, friends and children.
Not only can it show your high-end taste, but it is also an absolute symbol of identity and status. It can be said to be one of the most sought-after varieties among first-order potions.
By the way, this is the only reserve for this auction, so please don’t be stingy with the golden dragon in your pocket.”
Having said this with a smile, Baron Polly continued: "This first-level magic medicine, Strengthening Pill, is priced at a low price of 2,000 gold dragons. The price will increase by 100 gold dragons each time. Please start bidding."
After listening to Baron Polly's introduction, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not show too much intention to buy.
At present, the direct subordinates in our own territory, even the farmers with the lowest strength, have reached the first level of nine-star strength.
Moreover, the two alchemists Xue Ya and Fa Xia can stably refine about ten higher-level second-level magic pills Qi Condensation Pill every day.
In this way, after upgrading.
Our team can obtain an average of about 500 second-level Qi Condensing Pills and 5 third-level Rose Energy Condensing Pills every day.
Therefore, there is no need to attach too much importance to this first-order magic potion.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, there were already a lot of bidding sounds in the venue.
However, the locations where the sounds are made are mostly concentrated in the back row area of the auction house.
And the high-ranking nobles sitting in the front row with Lei Xiao were obviously a little uninterested in this first-order magic potion.
Most of them just sipped the champagne from their glasses, looking indifferent.
After all, the nobles who can sit in the front row booth area are basically the nobles who have their own territory, and even have their own alchemists.
In addition, these people have a good reputation, so naturally they will not easily compete with those low-level nobles for such low-level magic potions.
Like this, about five minutes passed.
After more than a dozen bids, this first-level magic medicine, Strengthening Pill, was fixed at the price of 4900 Golden Dragons.
"So cheap? That's all. Just kill it with a headshot. It's not painful anyway."
Seeing this, Lei Xiao, who was originally not very interested, couldn't help but nodded slightly and motioned to Chao Yan to press the silver device on the table that was similar to Chuancai Ling.
In an instant, with the crisp sound of a silver bell, all the eyes around him were focused on Lei Xiao.
At this time, anyone who knows a little bit about the market clearly understands.
At present, this price has far exceeded the market price of this first-order magic potion.
Furthermore, as a high-ranking nobleman sitting in the front row area, it seems a bit too shameful to compete with the guys behind for a first-order magic potion, right?
Lei Xiao naturally didn’t care about the strange looks from around him.
First of all, whether there is a qualitative change or a quantitative change after upgrading, the value you get will be far higher than the value you paid.
Secondly, Lei Xiao didn’t pay any attention to the self-proclaimed high-ranking nobles around him.
It's like walking on the street, and an ant casts a look of contempt at you. There must be no one staring back, right?
Finally, use the opportunity to appear again and again to show one's financial resources in a subtle way.
Attract the attention of two of your targets, Tina of the Blue Rose Knights, and Ryan of the Broken Blade Knights.
Even letting them take the initiative to get to know you is a good way.
“Then, this first-level magic medicine, Strengthening Pill, belongs to the gentleman at table 8!”
Soon, Baron Polly headed in the direction of Lei Xiao, bowed his head slightly and announced the ownership of the first auction item.
Next, a dazzling number of first-level magic potions and second-level high-quality equipment, which were hot auction items, came one after another.
Lei Xiao, who successfully obtained the first auction item, took a lot of first-level magic potions one after another, either by himself or by signaling Fang Hai in the back row.
During this process, Lei Xiao couldn't help feeling a little emotional when looking at the potion that easily required thousands of golden dragons.
You must know that in this world, the monthly income of ordinary people is only about a few gold dragons.
Even if it is an extremely common first-level magic potion, you may not be able to afford one in your lifetime.
It seems that this item, which is called a miracle medicine, has a miraculous effect.
If ordinary people can possess it, would it be considered a miracle in itself?
Having said that, as for those second-level high-quality equipment, despite the appearance of each piece.
This made the ordinary nobles and businessmen in the back row flock to each other, and they all became red-faced and thick-necked.
But for Lei Xiao, who couldn't even fit the third-level equipment on his body, he couldn't arouse the slightest interest at all, so he simply skipped it.
That's it, after all these popular auction items are sold.
Baron Polly was seen at the auction table and once again accepted a small brocade box handed to him by the etiquette person next to him.
Then he pretended to be mysterious and said: "Okay everyone, now that the warm-up session has passed.
Then, it’s time to enter the formal stage of our auction.”
Speaking of this, Baron Polly smiled gracefully, opened the brocade box, and introduced: "This item is called Charging Pill. It is a second-level magic medicine, and the quality is of the highest quality.
The function is to directly replenish a certain amount of energy when the energy in the body is depleted, helping the user to continue fighting.
At the critical moment of the battle, when both the enemy and ourselves are losing.
This kind of magic potion can often play a decisive role, helping you defeat your opponent in one fell swoop, or escape and save your life.
