Chapter 41 Ripples in the East China Sea (4)!

Looking at Nami who was constantly arguing about the price with the stall owner, Moen smiled.

This vitality in Nami could not be seen in Cocosia Village before.

"Okay Nami, stop arguing, the event is about to start."

Moen pulled Na Mei, and she had already negotiated the price to 1.2 million beli, which was still 1 million beli short of what she expected!

"Take it."

Moen counted out five hundred thousand beli and threw it to the fat man. Looking at the hesitant face of the fat man, he stretched out his hand very naturally.

laugh!

A small blood mark appeared on the fat man's forehead. The skin was not even broken, but a drop of blood broke through the skin and overflowed.

"······"

The fat man was shocked, what kind of god is this!

He quickly handed the necklace in his hand to Moen, packed up the things on the stall and ran away.

In less than three minutes, Fatty's stall was occupied.

Nami, who was very satisfied, went to a pool to clean the necklace. Moen stood behind and gave Nami this jeweled necklace.

"How is it? Does it look good?" Nami turned around in a circle and asked Moen very excitedly.

Moen touched his chin, feeling that something was wrong.

It looks good, but why does it feel inconsistent?

"Pa~"

After scanning the people around him, Moen snapped his fingers.

found it!

······

Soto Plaza Mall.

Nami grabbed the corner of her clothes and felt a little shy.

Just now, Moen dragged her here directly, carefully selected a few clothes that Nami thought were very expensive, and forcefully asked to change them.

"What about now?"

Nami turned around in a circle again, feeling a little uneasy.

The orange venetian skirt flutters in the wind, the light green corset outlines Nami's figure vividly, and the milky white shawl embellishes this strapless dress more dignifiedly.

"Perfect!"

Moen clapped his hands and settled the price of this one-million-dollar dress.

Now paired with the necklace from before, Nami transformed into a down-to-earth princess, incomparable.

"If you have time, would you like to take Ain and Lairla to dress up?" Moen thought of Ain and Lairla in his mind, and found that they didn't seem to care much about dressing up.

That's right, this world is a fighting world after all. Just be strong and that's it. Who cares how beautiful it is.

Thinking back on the original novel, the thing that was most difficult for Moen to accept was the sword-dancing princess Rebecca. Is that also called clothes? ? ?

"Let's go and see what the Soto Kingdom is doing."

After walking around with Nami, the expo outside has reached its final moments.

The auction organized by Soto Kingdom has begun!

Arriving at Soto Square again, all the large and small stalls had disappeared, replaced by rows and rows of seats.

In the center of the square is a wooden platform about one meter high and covering an area of dozens of square meters.

Behind the wooden platform was a large curtain. Moen used his sense of sight to detect the past and knew that it was the place where the auction items were placed.

Below the wooden platform is the so-called "elegant seat".

There are ten golden leather sofas in total, and they are filled with fresh fruit plates and expensive-looking red wine.

Behind the ten "elegant seats" are rows of benches, which should be the so-called VIP seats.

At the back, that is, on the outside of the square, there are standing seats. People without power and money can just stand here.

Nami meant that it would be fine to just stand here. After all, they only had a total of 10,000,000 Baileys, so it was better to keep a low profile in a place where big bosses gathered.

But who is Moeen?

Will he keep a low profile when he sets his sights on the Golden Lion when going abroad for internship?

nonexistent!

"Come on, let's go say hello to our old friends."

Moen took Nami's hand and walked towards the man sitting on the sofa, silently flipping through the Bible in his hand.

"Snapped."

Bartholomew Bear closed the Bible in his hand, sighed and looked at the young man sitting next to him.

Some people who had already found their positions were shaking unconsciously.

Someone would actually provoke the so-called "tyrant" King Shichibukai!

Having seen Da Xiong easily defeat several pirate groups before, everyone present could not bring up the idea of going to the "Sea".

Now a young boy actually sat in the "private seat"? And he's still with that tyrant?

"You are a bit too showy."

Xiong spoke calmly. There was still a lot of blood beside his seat.

"What does it matter?" Moen took the red wine at hand and poured a glass for Nami.

He knew that Nami had a good drinking capacity, so he had nothing to worry about.

The bear didn't reply, just looked up at the wooden platform silently.

Nami also very quietly tasted the high-end wine that she had never enjoyed before.

Moen's arrogance provoked many pirates, but they did not dare to provoke the Soto Kingdom at this time. After all, they were not King Shichibukai, so they only stared at Moen who was sitting safely on the chair. .

As time went on, the seats in the auction house were basically full.

But one very strange thing is that there are only two people in the "private seat"!

King Shichibukai, Bartholomew Bear!

Mysterious young man!

Even the legendary [Admiral] Creek was sitting on the bench very quietly.

"It looks a bit bad." Soto III twitched his lips as he strolled into the venue. He did not expect that even the big pirates would not have the guts to sit next to those two people.

Although this is the most correct choice.

Kath shook her husband's hand, and then sat down on the sofa next to Morn very dignifiedly.

"Oh, isn't this the princess of the Soto Kingdom?" Moen was chewing on an apple, a little surprised.

The royal family was actually involved in this auction?

The revolutionary army, the countries that join the world government, pirates, plus my own navy...

What the hell, all four major forces in the world are involved.

Moen sat up straight, looking like today's auction was a bit interesting.

Moen didn't have to wait long. The auctioneer came up and everyone was in an uproar.

Because the auctioneer is none other than Soto III! ! !

"Dignified guests from all over the world, I know that many of you have grudges between you. But now please put aside the past festivals and let us end this expo perfectly."

Soto III waved his hand grandly, and a bunch of gold-rimmed signs were handed out.

Moen looked at the sign in his hand.

Number three!

Big Bear is number two!

"So, who is No. 1?" Moen looked at No. 4 in Queen Kath's hand next to him with some amusement.

"The auction will begin below. The first item is a mansion in the capital of my Soto Kingdom. The starting price is 500,000 beli, and each increase in price must not be less than 10,000 beli."

Soto III asked someone to push up a small cart with some documents on it, all of which were very formal certificates of property rights.

The people below began to whisper that this auction item was not a good thing for outsiders, but it was an investment opportunity for the local people of the Soto Kingdom.

"550,000 Baileys!"

"560,000 Baileys!"

"600,000 Baileys!"

······

According to Moen's understanding, the land price in the capital of the Soto Kingdom is still very high. After all, this is a powerful country and very peaceful.

A mansion is worth at least one million dollars. It seems that this first auction item is just to warm up the auction.

Sure enough, this mansion was taken away by a local nobleman for 970,000 beli.

The next auction item is a large dark blue gemstone.

It was the local nobles who won the bid.

The third item...

The fourth item...

······

Moen felt like he wanted to fall asleep. The auction had reached the eighteenth item, and the previous auction items had no way of attracting Moen's interest.

After all, he is a man who has seen the auction house of the Grand Line.

"Next, the eighteenth auction item." Soto III took a sip of water and slowly looked at the impatient pirates.

"It's a 50% discount on the weapons of our Soto Kingdom. The starting price is 10 million beli, and each increase in price must not be less than 100,000 beli."

"Ten and a half million!"

As soon as Soto III put down his hammer, a bearded man stood up impatiently. It seemed that he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

"Eleven million!"

"11,300,000!"

······

Looking at the pirates who kept bidding and their eyes were red, Moen suddenly lost interest.

"Princess Kath, is the Soto Kingdom doing arms trading so blatantly?" Taking a banana handed over by Nami, Moen casually asked Kath, who was a little nervous next to her.

"Brigadier General Moen was joking, this is just ordinary business." Kath was not stupid. UU Reading www.uukａnshu.net She had already known Moen's identity from the bear.

I originally thought about canceling this auction item, but so many pirates came here for this. If I cancel it rashly, it may cause a mutiny.

"Twenty million Baileys! Let's see who dares to steal it from me, Crick!"

On a bench not far from Morn, the Chinese-faced Crick glanced at the people around him arrogantly, his tone was very cold.

"Twenty million once, twenty million twice, twenty million three times! Okay, deal."

Soto III's expressionless final words, for him, it doesn't matter who takes the picture, because the most important thing is coming.

Those people appeared in this country because of this!

"under···"

Wow~

Suddenly a strong wind blew at the venue, and Nami quickly covered the hem of her skirt to avoid being exposed.

Moen's eyes became bright, and he felt several powerful auras appearing in the venue.

The "private seats" that were originally empty were now filled with people!

Seat No. 1! A robed man wearing a white mask!
