Chapter 652 Lord Roland
He called out such an unreasonable and shocking price all of a sudden. He thought he was gaining a lot of face, but he didn't know that he had already committed a taboo in auctions. (Reading novels) These are all well-known people in Qingfeng Plain. Which one is easy to scare? If you hurriedly show an attitude of being determined to get it and tell everyone that you need this thing, at most you will make some well-connected people give up bidding.
The problem is, if you have a good relationship, you don't need to bluff at all, and directly bid such a high price, the effect is actually the same as just adding a basic increase. It's not necessary, or dispensable. A good relationship will naturally give you face. If the other party also needs it very much, how can your bid of five million gold coins scare any wealthy family...
Seeing the people downstairs constantly looking towards him, how could the expressions in their eyes be hidden from Lin Li's eyes. However, Lin Li basically ignored other people's opinions, and was even less likely to tell them his true thoughts. Can't you tell them that I just don't want to waste time on Ranwen Novel Network? Isn't this a little too hurtful...
Of course, Lin Li was even less likely to tell them that this branch, which didn't look like much, was actually one of the seven star fragments. It had the power to control life. Once it was in his hands, it was almost equivalent to immortality. No one can resist this temptation. If this is really known to others, Lin Li has no confidence that he has competed with the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce. By then, all friendships will be in vain. Those profiteers who recognize money but not people will not Let me tell you about friendship, for them, money is their closest friend.
"Magic Ferey from the Tower of Twilight bids five million gold coins." Varian felt a little disappointed. The branch that he had pinned his hopes on did not arouse any bidding enthusiasm. If it hadn't been for Magister Ferey directly With a bid of five million gold coins, I'm afraid the final scene will be even more ugly.
After one inquiry, two inquiries, Varian raised the hammer in his hand, and only waited for three inquiries before the hammer fell and the deal was made.
But at this moment, another bidding sound came down from upstairs, causing him to withdraw the small hammer he raised.
"Six million gold cloth!"
This sound caused a commotion in the auction venue. They could not imagine that anyone other than the upstart who had just earned 10 million gold coins would be interested in an inconspicuous branch.
However, Lin Li, who was sitting in the VIP room, could clearly hear the sound of bidding against him coming from outside the door of the room. At his signal, Novel came to the door and reached out to open the door.
Outside the door, City Lord Roland Alaso, who was about to knock on the door, lowered his raised arm, smiled apologetically at Lin Li and others, and said, "President Feyre, I hope you can understand this matter. it's very important to me."
"It turns out to be the Lord of Arathor City, please come in." Lin Li's expression was very indifferent, and he was not angry because someone was competing with him. The highest bidder wins, and no one has the right to deprive others of the opportunity to compete.
However, compared to Lin Li's indifference, the faces of Wilkinson and others were not so good-looking. Although City Lord Roland is quite famous in Qingfeng Plain, in the eyes of Wilkinson and others, he is not considered a figure at all. Seeing Arasso walking in with his two entourages, although it was difficult to question Lin Li's decision, Wilkinson and the others still wore undisguised expressions of displeasure on their faces.
Arasso did not dare to neglect Wilkinson and others at all. Although the other party did not have a good look on him, he still smiled and greeted the pharmacists one by one respectfully.
Of course, the smiles sent out did not bring about the softening of attitude of Wilkinson and others. He didn't care about this. It was a fact recognized in Anriel's world that all capable pharmacists had bad tempers.
"It seems that the Lord of Arathor City is also very interested in this treasure."
Lin Li first quoted a price of seven million gold coins, causing Varian's hammer to fail again. He turned back and said meaningfully to Arathor.
Aratho suddenly participated in the bidding. Although Lin Li was not angry about this, he was inevitably curious. Because when he called out the price of five million gold coins, he did not just randomly take the money and call it wrongly, but after some calculations, he directly raised the auction price to five million gold coins.
Lin Li knew very well what the branch was used for, but until now, others probably still don't know. Even the so-called knowledgeable people can know that the branches have a natural aura and contain strong vitality.
Wilkinson thought of using this branch in a herbal plantation. How could Lin Li, a master pharmacist, not know this? Then, would other senior pharmacists or master pharmacists think of the same use?
Therefore, the price of five million gold coins that Lin Li called out was the maximum value of this branch for exerting this effect. If the price went up further, it would exceed the value of the branch in the eyes of others. Therefore, the price of five million gold coins is equivalent to cutting off the thoughts of those who are so-called knowledgeable people. Only in this way can we save time.
And this is where Lin Li was curious. Why did Ah Jiesuo participate in the auction? Did he want to use it to increase grain production? The price of five million gold coins, even if a pharmacist took it and put it in a herbal plantation, the price would be sky-high. Aratho asked for six million gold coins. If he wasn't a fool, he probably knew something.
"This..." Arathor turned around, glanced at the entourage he brought with him seemingly casually, then sat down on an empty chair, and continued to say to Lin Li: "I'm really sorry, Ferre Magic Master, this treasure is very important to me, so can you "" Alasuo's small movements did not attract other people's attention, but they could not be hidden from Lin Li's eyes. After Ran Lasuo sat down, Lin Li listened to Alasuo As he said this, he glanced at the followers of Arathor with his eyes.
Downstairs, on the stage, Vianli asked the price twice and raised the hammer high again.
"Eight million gold coins!"
Ah Guansuo shouted quickly.
"Okay, eight million gold coins, a treasure from the Elf Kingdom. Someone has already bid eight million gold coins. Is there anyone who is willing to pay a higher price..."
Wanli spoke in a very leaky way, but at the same time he was secretly worried. Although there are people bidding, it is a good thing for this auction item and this auction, but the problem is why Arathor has to compete with the magician Feyre without knowing whether to live or die.
Lin Li's eyes swept over the followers brought by Alasuo one by one, looking at only one aspect, and more importantly, sensing the opponent's power fluctuations. From the small actions of Alasuo Zhoucai, he had already noticed that it was probably not Alasuo's original intention to bid for this item. However, Arathor is the Lord of Roland City after all, so what kind of person would he be who can ask him to do things for him.
"Magic Ferre, if you can give this thing to the final city of Roland, you will definitely become a loyal ally of the Tower of Twilight forever." Arathor persuaded in a sincere tone.
"Who do you think you are? You are worthy of being an ally with our Tower of Twilight. You are just a city lord. You take yourself too seriously."
Wilkinson couldn't help but sneered. Although his tone was very rude, anyone who knew the Tower of Dusk knew that this was definitely the truth.
Hearing Wilkinson's words, Alaso was not angry, but was shocked. He noticed that when Master Wilkinson mentioned the Tower of Twilight just now, he was talking about our Tower of Twilight. I originally thought it was the Tower of Twilight, climbing the high branches of the pharmacists, but now listening to what Wilkinson said, are these pharmacists affiliated with the Tower of Twilight?
Arathau actually bid eight million gold coins, which surprised Lin Li. Could it be that the Lord of Roland City, or someone behind him, already knew the secret of this branch? You must know that although Roland City is rich, and the city owner nominally accepts the rule of the Kingdom of France, in fact all income except taxes goes into his own treasury, but Lin Li can definitely say that eight million gold coins is definitely not a small amount. If he didn't know something, Aratho would never pay such a high price for a branch.
With this question, UU Reading www. uukanshu.net Lin Li observed the followers brought by Alasuo more carefully, trying his best to capture every trace of unusual energy fluctuations. Varian downstairs asked twice more, and raised the hammer in his hand again. After three inquiries, the hammer fell and the deal was made. At this moment, Lin Li frowned unnoticeably.
Although Lin Li's Myth Potion fetched a sky-high price of 10 million gold coins, after deducting the transaction fee that should be paid to Varian, the total income is actually more than 8 million gold coins. Therefore, in the eyes of others, whether he can get eight million gold coins is a question. No one thinks that all the proceeds from the auction of potions by Wilkinson and others will be given to the Tower of Dusk.
Perhaps because of this suspicion, after Aratho asked for eight million gold coins, the mysterious man behind him might have thought that he had a chance to win, so his mood inevitably fluctuated. After all, Lin Li was already a legendary mage, and his sense of magical energy was very keen. Therefore, he caught such a slight fluctuation and focused his attention on one of Arathor's followers, and finally saw some clues.
In the Endless World, Lin Li was once a hunter, and among the professional skills of a hunter, there is one skill that almost all hunters must learn, the art of camouflage. The camouflage technique is different from the assassin's stealth technique. The assassin's stealth technique is to hide one's body, and then sneak up behind the opponent to suddenly take action, while the hunter's camouflage technique is to change one's own form.
