Chapter 117 Deliberately arrogant
Yueying and his group stood in front of the tall building. They looked up and saw a black iron plaque hanging right above the building. There were no words on the plaque, only two raised patterns of a hammer and a chisel.
Katie asked, "Where is this?"
Qianjun said: "This is the location of the Blacksmith Association headquarters."
The Blacksmiths Guild headquarters building looks a bit rough on the outside and does not have any gorgeous decorations.
There wasn't even a guard at the gate, but there was a constant stream of people coming and going. The three gates were open, and the bustling crowd inside could be seen from the outside.
Qianjun introduced: "The headquarters is divided into five floors. The first floor is the trading area. Blacksmiths will bring their proudest works or some metals here to trade, but there are also vendors who specialize in selling various metals."
"The second floor is the advanced trading area, where rare metals are usually traded. The third floor is the blacksmith registration and assessment area, which is dedicated to blacksmith level assessments."
"The fourth floor is the VIP area, which is also the auction house that I want to go to. Some particularly precious or rare castings are auctioned there regularly. The fifth floor is the office area of the Blacksmith Association. The president of the Blacksmith Association is on the fifth floor."
Jiang Mo looked at the big clock on the wall next to the headquarters and said, "There is an auction starting at this time."
"Then let's go join in the fun."
As he said that, Yueying patted Qianjun's shoulder and said, "Sixth brother, put me down."
Qianjun nodded, squatted down, and carefully put Yueying down.
Then he turned to the two followers who had been following him and said, "Go and get the room ready, and set up the carriage before coming back."
"Yes."
Follow the orders and leave.
After explaining everything, the six people walked into the headquarters building of the Blacksmiths Association.
The first floor is a fully open hall, which is bustling with people and very lively!
There is a large circle of counters next to the wall in the outermost circle, behind which are placed various finished products cast by blacksmiths.
Although there were many people in the hall at this time, most of them were merchants. Some were asking prices, some were bargaining, and there was an endless stream of people.
Yueying suddenly remembered that the soul masters who possessed the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda all had strong treasure appraisal abilities.
And now that Ning Rongrong's martial soul has been upgraded to the Nine Treasures Glazed Tower, her treasure appraisal ability is even stronger than Ning Fengzhi!
I should have gone to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect first and brought Rongrong here.
Another wrong move!
Yueying knocked his head in regret.
Qianjun frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
"nothing."
Yueying shook her head and smiled: "Let's go to the auction area."
The six people went straight to the VIP auction area on the fourth floor.
……
Fourth floor, VIP auction area.
After walking to the door and taking the masks from the waiter and putting them on, the six people walked into the auction hall.
This auction hall is not smaller than the one in Tiandou Auction House, but it is quieter and there are no service staff with good figures.
Qianjun had already registered his assets at the door, and with the asset certificate, the six people could enter the most distinguished VIP auction seat on the second floor.
Yueying ran directly to the fence on the seat, lay on it and looked down. The first floor below was the auction seat and auction platform for ordinary VIPs.
The others followed behind her.
At this moment, the surrounding lights suddenly dimmed.
Yueying knew that the auction was about to begin.
She handed the bidding sign to the maid and said, "Ayin, follow my orders later."
"Yes, ma'am."
The little maid held the bidding sign obediently, watching for Yueying's instructions at any time.
At this time, a beam of light appeared on the auction platform below, and under the beam a man in a suit stood in the center of the platform.
"I'm Sidi, and I welcome all distinguished guests to our auction area. Today's auction is about to begin. Please take your seats in order."
"Although most of the people attending the auction are our old friends, I still want to repeat that during the bidding process, please hold up the sign next to your seat as a bidding symbol and quote the price at the same time."
"There are many bidders, so I hope every distinguished guest here will leave satisfied! Okay, the auction will officially begin now."
After the opening remarks.
The staff of the Blacksmith Association slowly walked up, pushing a platform covered with red cloth.
It can be seen that the things on the table are extremely heavy, and it is difficult for the four staff members to push it!
The auctioneer, Sidi, walked over, raised his hand and lifted the red cloth, revealing the true face underneath.
He began to introduce: "Our first lot today is this special metal, black iron. Its purity is over 90% and it weighs 231 kilograms. This is the first time I have seen such a large piece of black iron in many years."
"This black iron is not only large in size, but also of extremely high quality. Its price can no longer be calculated by unit price, so it is specially brought to this auction as the first lot. Its reserve price is 20,000 gold soul coins, and each bid is at least 100 gold soul coins. Now, distinguished guests can bid!"
At this time, quotes began to come from all directions.
The price continued to rise, but Yueying was not in a hurry. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she kept watching the price trend below.
Soon, the price of this piece of dark iron had risen to twenty-five thousand gold soul coins.
Just when the hammer was about to fall for the third time for twenty-five thousand gold soul coins, a voice suddenly rang out from the other side of the upper guest seats on the second floor.
"Thirty thousand."
Suddenly, the whole audience was stunned.
Sidi smiled slightly and said, "The 100th VIP seat bids 30,000 gold soul coins. Is there anyone who can offer a higher price?"
After waiting for a while, seeing that no one was bidding again, he began to hammer: "Thirty thousand gold soul coins for the first time, thirty thousand gold soul coins for the second time, thirty thousand gold soul coins..."
Just as Sidi was about to shout "Third time, deal", the maid Ayin promptly raised the bidding sign in her hand and shouted loudly: "Forty thousand."
The shout of 40,000 was enough to shock the whole audience.
Unexpectedly, when no one reacted, the person who just shouted 30,000 shouted again: "50,000."
Suddenly, the auction hall fell silent, and Sidi on the stage was briefly stunned.
The maid immediately looked at Yueying: "Miss, do you want to increase the price?"
Yueying looked at her freshly trimmed nails, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly: "No need to shout!"
"Ayin, remember that idiot just now. Whenever he shouts, you must argue with him, doubling the number each time until I tell you to stop!"
"Yes, ma'am."
The little maid thought to herself: Did that man offend the young lady? Otherwise, why would the young lady target him?
Katie asked Xiang Yueying in confusion, "Miss, why are you arguing with that idiot?"
Yueying smiled and touched her cat ears, saying calmly: "Because I'm bored, young lady, I'm looking for a fool to play with!"
At this time, Qianjun and Jiangmo, who were standing behind Yueying, looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
The little girl is playful again!
Xie Yue on the side watched quietly but did not say anything.
He felt that Yueying must have known who that person was, so she did it on purpose!
