Chapter 370 Area x Auction
Area 13, Xia Qi's extortion tavern.
"Interesting, is something big going to happen soon?" Xia Qi raised the corners of her mouth slightly, resting her arms on the table, puffing away calmly.
She had a strong feeling in her heart: "Xia Jieren will definitely become a trendsetter in the new era."
Area 1, human auction, backstage prison.
An old man with silver-white hair, glasses and a very strong look was bound by shackles.
He would take a sip from the bottle from time to time, without any awareness of being a slave.
This person is none other than Rayleigh, the god of the underworld who likes to pretend to be a slave to earn money for wine.
"What! Gone again?" He shook the bottle and murmured in disappointment.
Suddenly, I heard the voices of staff talking.
"Hey, did you hear that?"
"what?"
"There was a big battle in Area 8. I heard it was very tragic!"
"..."
Rayleigh pricked up his ears curiously and listened to their conversation.
"Things are about to get interesting." Rayleigh's lips curled up slightly, and he was very interested in Xia Jieren and others they mentioned.
He had also heard Xia Qi talk about a lot of information about the Kingdom of the Netherlands before.
Mysterious. This was Rayleigh's first impression of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
"I must see this young man in person if I get a chance," Rayleigh thought.
......
Xia Jieren didn't know what others thought.
He has now wandered into Area 1.
There are many shops here, most of which are related to human trafficking.
Xia Jieren found the largest auction and walked in.
After walking through the corridor, enter the hall.
An open space that could accommodate four or five hundred people immediately appeared in front of them.
At this time, the hall was full and the bidding sounds were heard one after another.
The bidders all wore confident smiles and raised their placards to bid calmly.
The auctioneer's face was beaming with joy.
When Xia Jieren saw with his own eyes that the item for auction was a human being, he felt a little disgusted.
However, he did not do anything irrational. He followed the waiter's instructions and walked into a VIP room.
After taking the auction list, Xia Jieren looked at it boredly.
In this auction, all the items are humans, without a single minority race.
There are people from all walks of life in the auction items.
Pirate captain, doctor, maid, butler, singer...
"Next, we have our 23rd lot, which is from the exclusive butler of the royal family of a country in the North Sea - Leiqi."
"..."
The auctioneer said excitedly.
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man with an explosive collar around his neck was pulled up roughly.
Even his well-dressed clothes could not hide the despair on his face.
However, no one seemed to notice it, or maybe they didn't care at all.
After a fierce bidding, the butler named Reggie was finally bought by a pregnant woman for 50 Baileys.
The auction continues.
Xia Jieren watched quietly, without any intention of taking any action.
Soon, lot 42 went on auction.
Seeing the familiar face, Xia Jieren was stunned, then smiled knowingly.
"The skilled coating craftsman - Lao Lei, the starting price is 10 Baileys." The auctioneer shouted passionately.
"11 million!"
"11 Baileys!"
“…”
Listening to the bidding, Xia Jieren smiled and shook his head: "The great Pluto Rayleigh is only worth a few hundred thousand Baileys."
Xia Jieren still had no intention of taking action.
Now, he didn't want to have too much contact with a strong man of Rayleigh's level.
We are not destined to be on the same path.
Suddenly, Rayleigh seemed to sense something and looked towards the box where Xia Jieren and others were.
"Why are you looking at me? Did you discover something?" Xia Jieren was surprised.
Then, he calmed down and said, "No! The glass in the box is one-way glass. He shouldn't be able to see me."
"Maybe they sensed the presence of Sanda and the others."
"Observation Haki?" Xia Jieren became more and more interested in this power.
However, he did not receive any systematic training methods.
Sanda also has a similar ability, but it is brought by the Thunder Fruit.
"Or, after we get back, we can go to Sky Island to learn." Xia Jieren thought.
Rayleigh quickly withdrew his gaze, his expression did not change at all, and he still looked as if nothing had happened.
"Four young people with great abilities!" Rayleigh muttered to himself.
Then he was pushed off the stage.
There were only a few items left, and Xia Jieren no longer had any expectations.
He yawned out of boredom and ate some fruits and snacks on the table to kill time.
"The next lot is from the Grand Line [Philippine Kingdom], the beautiful twin maids - Lillian and Lillia."
"They are two very good maids, whether it is cooking, cleaning or sewing, they are proficient in everything."
"The starting price is 50 Baileys!"
When Lillian and Lilia were pushed onto the stage, the whole audience was boiling with excited wolf howls one after another.
Many people urged loudly.
Xia Jieren was attracted by the noise and looked over curiously.
The next second, he was stunned, with a look of excitement written all over his face.
On the stage, two pretty beauties were leaning against each other and shivering.
Their faces were filled with fear and despair at this moment, which made them very adorable.
The sisters Lillian and Lilia look similar and have the same height, both around 1.6 meters, with long, silky golden hair that is slightly wavy.
They are like elves from a fairy tale and are very attractive.
Her face was as delicate as a sculpture, with clear blue eyes, like the summer sky.
Her lips are plump and rosy, her skin is fair and delicate, and she is very seductive.
The tearful look of the two sisters stimulated the bidders' nerves like stimulants.
The price has been rising all the way, starting from 50 Baileys and has now exceeded 120 million Baileys.
Seeing that fewer and fewer people were bidding, Xia Jieren directly raised his sign and said, "150 million Baileys!"
For a moment, the whole place was silent.
Everyone looked towards the VIP box where Xia Jieren was with either curiosity or fear.
The bidders in the ordinary seats seemed to be deflated balls and did not continue bidding.
When Xia Jieren thought he had won, bidding sounds came from other boxes: "160 million!"
Before the auctioneer struck the hammer, Xia Jieren decisively said, "Two million!"
"210 million!"
"300 million!" Xia Jieren directly raised the price to a higher level.
Everyone at the auction was stunned by Xia Jieren's generosity.
You have to know that this is just a small auction, and the price of a normal human slave is only between 10 and 80 Baileys.
The auction price of some princesses of fallen countries may exceed one million Baileys.
“Anyone else bidding?”
"300 million Baileys at a time!"
"These are two maids who can take care of every aspect of life~"
"300 million Baileys twice!"
"..."
The auctioneer waved the hammer excitedly, his words full of encouragement.
He performed hard on the stage, but no one was moved.
