Chapter 73 Auction (more updates)
When the time came for the auction, Yuan Changqing brought Catherine and Wang Yuyan to the auction house dressed in fine clothes. After the guard read the invitation, he respectfully invited the three in.
Yuan Changqing and the other three came to their positions and saw that many people had come. Most of the people who had come here were burly blacksmiths. It seemed that the auction in Gengjin City was still dominated by ore.
After a while, most of the seats in the auction house were occupied, and a male emcee came to the stage in front, indicating that the auction had begun.
"Gentlemen and ladies, welcome to this auction. I am the emcee Luca. I hope that every distinguished guest sitting here will be able to auction something they like. Welcome everyone again."
After a round of applause, the auction officially began.
The master of ceremonies bowed and said: "Thank you, thank you all. Well, without further ado, I would like to invite you for the first lot."
As soon as he finished speaking, a hostess came up with a tray.
Master of Ceremony Luca said: "The first auction item is a cold-iron forged sword made by a famous blacksmith master in Gengjin City. The starting price is 100 gold soul coins, and each increase in price must not be less than 10 gold soul coins."
As soon as the master of ceremonies finished speaking, someone started bidding.
"Guests in seat No. 5 will receive an additional 10 gold soul coins, 110 gold soul coins."
"Guests in seat 12 will pay an additional 10 gold and 120 gold soul coins."
“…”
"Guests in seat 5 will pay an additional 30 gold soul coins and 230 gold soul coins."
After waiting for a while, no one bid again. The emcee started calling out the price and said: "230 gold soul coins for the first time, 230 gold soul coins for the second time, 230 gold soul coins for the third time, bang, it's a deal!"
"Please give me the second auction item. This item is a piece of gold wire inner armor. Wearing it on the body can effectively defend against the attacks of the Soul Sect. This inner armor was also made by the blacksmith master in Gengjin City."
"The starting price is 500 gold soul coins, and each bid increase must not be less than 10 gold soul coins. Now please bid."
"Guests in seat 6 will pay an additional 20 gold soul coins, 520 gold soul coins."
"Guests in seat 8 will pay an additional 50 gold soul coins, 570 gold soul coins."
“…”
"Guests in seat 16 will pay an additional 50 gold soul coins, 960 gold soul coins."
"960 gold soul coins, are there any other customers who need to increase the price? 960 gold soul coins, first time."
"960 gold soul coins for the second time."
"Do you want to increase the price? 960 gold soul coins for the third time."
"Snapped."
"The deal is done. Let us congratulate the guest in seat 16 for successfully auctioning this piece of gold wire underwear."
"The third lot is here for me."
“…”
…
"Now we have the twenty-seventh lot, which is also one of the three final lots. For those of you who haven't taken the lot yet, you must seize the opportunity."
"The twenty-seventh lot is two pieces of ore, one piece of Haoyang gold and iron, and one piece of Hanyue crystal. These are a pair of yin and yang attributes of ore. They are very rare in Douluo Continent. For the blacksmith master, they are rare treasures in the world. .”
"Its starting price is 100,000 gold soul coins. Each bid increase must not be less than 1,000 gold soul coins. Please start increasing the price."
"Guests in seat No. 2 will pay an additional fee of five thousand gold soul coins and one hundred and fifty thousand gold soul coins."
"Guests in seat No. 1 will pay an additional fee of five thousand gold soul coins and one hundred and ten thousand gold soul coins."
"Guests in seat 10 will pay an additional 10,000 gold soul coins and 120,000 gold soul coins."
“…”
The finale was ominous, and the competition suddenly became a lot fiercer. Anyone with some ability joined the competition, especially the blacksmiths, just like a cat seeing a mouse.
Yuan Changqing's seat is No. 28. So far in the auction, he has not made a bid. This time he came to the auction mainly to see if there are any needed items for sale.
The auction was almost over, and Yuan Changqing finally got what he needed, but he didn't expect it to be one of the final items.
However, the competition is too fierce now, so Yuan Changqing is not in a hurry to bid, and will wait until the end.
After Catherine saw this lot, she knew it was what Yuan Changqing needed.
Catherine asked in a low voice: "Husband, why don't you take action?"
Wang Yuyan also looked over, and Yuan Changqing shook his head and said softly: "Don't worry, now is not the best time to bid. This thing doesn't seem cheap now. Let's wait until there are fewer people competing to bid."
Wang Yuyan also said: "Yeah, I didn't expect there to be so many competitors. It seems that this finale lot is different. I just don't know what kind of price the last two lots will fetch."
Yuan Changqing said: "It depends on what the auction item is. It may not be sold, haha."
"Guests in seat 3 will be charged an additional 20,000 gold soul coins and 240,000 gold soul coins."
“…”
Yuan Changqing saw that the time was almost up and started to hold up a sign: "Guests in seat 28 will be charged an additional 30,000 gold soul coins and 290,000 gold soul coins."
"Guests in seat 3 will pay an additional fee of 10,000 gold soul coins and 300,000 gold soul coins."
"Guests in seat 28 will be charged an additional 30,000 gold soul coins and 330,000 gold soul coins."
“…”
"Guests in seat 28 will be charged an additional 30,000 gold soul coins and 370,000 gold soul coins."
After waiting for a while, no one competed again. The master of ceremonies said: "Three hundred and seventy thousand gold soul coins, first time."
"There is still a price increase, 370,000 gold soul coins, the second time."
"Three hundred and seventy thousand gold soul coins, the third time."
"Snapped."
"The sale was completed. Let us congratulate the guest in seat 28 for successfully acquiring the twenty-seventh item."
"Bah bang bang."
"Please bid for the twenty-eighth lot."
“…”
…
The last two lots are also quite precious, but for other people, Yuan Changqing doesn't need them. Now it's enough to get a happy lot, but this thing is really expensive.
Thinking of the price, my heart bleeds. Although Yuan Changqing's family is not short of money now, it is heartbreaking to take out such a large amount at once.
When he came to Gengjincheng this time, Yuan Changqing finally understood the concept of spending money like water. In addition, the ore he bought in the store was also a lot of money.
Catherine and Wang Yuyan found it funny when they saw Yuan Changqing's heartbroken expression when he gave the money.
After returning to the hotel, Catherine deliberately joked: "Husband, what's wrong with you today? You look so sad?"
"Hehe." Wang Yuyan couldn't help laughing.
"Hahaha."
When Catherine saw Wang Yuyan laughing, she couldn't help it and laughed loudly.
Yuan Changqing said speechlessly: "Laugh, laugh, you don't know that it is easy to spend money but hard to make money. This time I spent so many gold soul coins in Gengjincheng, it makes my heart hurt. Now my heart is bleeding. You are still in the mood to laugh at me, and you don’t know how to comfort your husband, alas! How sad.”
Seeing Yuan Changqing like this, Catherine and Wang Yuyan looked at each other, fell on the bed, and laughed again, without caring about Yuan Changqing's feelings at all.
Yuan Changqing rushed forward and said: "Okay, if you dare to laugh at your husband, it's up to my family to serve you."
"Husband, I don't dare anymore."
"Brother Changqing, please spare me."
The three of them fought for a while, but in the end they were exhausted and lay on the bed quietly cuddling together.
The setting sun shines into the room, making the scene look like a warm painting.
