Chapter 183 Auction

"Welcome, distinguished kings and queens, to our auction house!" After speaking, the blond man on the stage saluted, and then he introduced himself, "I am the auctioneer of this auction, Steven R. Palmer!"

His voice echoed throughout the auction house, but he received no response!

This time, all the kings and queens came to participate, and they all sat in the box on the second floor. Obviously, no one would respond to him!

However, Palmer had anticipated this for a long time, smiled slightly, and continued, "Not much to say, then, the auction will officially start!"

He knew that all the people sitting here were kings and queens, but no one was willing to listen to his nonsense. The most important thing was to get to the point quickly!

"First of all, we have our first auction item!" Palmer said loudly.

Then, behind the table, four waiters came out carrying a transparent glass box. Inside the glass box was a snow-white gauze dress with a long skirt studded with various dazzling diamonds.

The waiter first carried the glass box and showed it around, and then placed the glass box in the middle of the table!

"This dress is called the Guardian of the Stars. It was designed by the well-known fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent. It is inlaid with 999 dazzling diamonds. Wearing it is like being surrounded by diamond stars. In general, it is called the guardian of the stars! And the most important thing is"

With that said, Palmer opened the glass box, then took out a pistol from his pocket, loaded and loaded it in one go.

"boom!"

A shot hit the dress directly!

Dress, unscathed!

"Its gauze skirt is made of a special composite material. Wearing it will not cause any damage even if it is hit by a musket on the spot. At the same time, it is also fireproof and waterproof!"

"The starting price is one million Bailey!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a gentle female voice sounded in the third box, "Two million!"

Hearing this, Palmer's eyes lit up and he shouted loudly, "Queen Joanna of the Si'aner Kingdom in Box 3 has bid two million!"

It can be seen that he has done a certain amount of work, and everyone in the box should be very clear, so he can immediately name the king or queen of the kingdom to which the box belongs.

And his auction skills are also very high, and he did not use any violent language, but just pointed out the identity of the person in the box between the words!

If it was in a normal auction, it would be useless, but it was different in the special auction for kings. There were more or less enemies among these kings and queens.

As long as he points out the king or queen of the kingdom to which the box belongs, without him raising the price, the enemies of these kings and queens will help him raise the price!

After all, as long as the enemy suffers, no matter how you look at it, it is a matter of physical and mental pleasure!

Then came the sound of quotations.

"Two and a half million!"

"three million!"

"four million!"

Most of the voices are the queens of several kingdoms. It can be seen that these queens like this dress very much!

In box ten.

Looking at the dress below, Arthur's mind moved, and he directly quoted, "Ten million!"

"Brother Arthur, who are you?" Cobra asked in confusion.

It was a woman's dress, and it was no surprise that several queens scrambled for him, but Arthur's bid exceeded his expectations.

"I'm going to buy it for my wife. I think she must be beautiful when she wears this dress!" Arthur said with a smile.

"Oh!" Cobra suddenly realized, and then his mind moved, and he thought to himself, "How about buying one for Titi? Well, that's how it was decided! However, this one will be given to Brother Arthur first, and later if If you have one, buy it!"

on the auction table

After Palmer heard it, he immediately said, "Box 10, King Arthur of St. Martin's Kingdom bid ten million!"

"Eleven million!" The voice came from Box 3 again.

"Twenty million!" Arthur indifferently quoted.

He came out this time because it was a national visit and exchange, so the treasury had 2 billion baileys, and he himself took 3 billion pocket money from the royal family, plus Queen Tiversi's one billion ransom, A total of six billion baileys.

Although it took a few points on the way, there were still 5.9 billion Baileys left.

It's not that he blows it. Looking at the audience, there is absolutely no king who can bring as much as him, and it would be good to have one-third of him at most!

As soon as he made the quotation, Palmer immediately shouted, "Box 10, His Majesty Arthur, 20 million!"

After waiting for a while, no one offered another offer, so Palmer shouted, "Twenty million for the first time!"

After a while, there was still no offer, and Palmer continued to shout, "Twenty million for the second time!"

Just as Palmer was about to shout for the third time, Box 3 said again, "Twenty-one million!"

"Okay, Box 3, Queen Joanna, 21 million!" Palmer exclaimed.

"Thirty million!" Arthur shouted indifferently.

"Box 10, His Majesty Arthur 30 million!"

"Thirty million for the first time!"

"Thirty million, the second time!"

"Thirty million, the third time!"

"Thirty million, become"

Just when the deal was about to be made, a resentful voice came from Box 5, "Thirty million and one Bailey!"

"Uh, King Varta of the drum kingdom in Box 5 offered 3,001 Baileys!" Palmer was a little stunned to hear this offer, but he was also a little happy, because he could hear the smell of gunpowder in Varta's words!

It smells of gunpowder, which means that it will definitely sell for a high price!

After hearing Palmer's words, Arthur suddenly understood that it was Valta!

"Forty million!" Arthur silently quoted.

"Forty million and one Bailey!"

"Fifty million!"

"Fifty million and one Bailey!"

Listening to the quotations from the two of them, Kobra couldn't sit still next to him. The price definitely exceeded the price of the item itself. It would definitely be a loss if he bought it. Arthur is his brother, how could he let his brother suffer? ?

But he did not rush to dissuade Arthur, but was ready to ask the ins and outs of the matter first!

"Brother Arthur, do you have any grudge against this Valta?" Cobra asked inexplicably.

You must know that one of the two is in the West Sea and the other is in the Great Waterway. If they hadn't participated in the World Conference, maybe the two of them would never meet each other in their entire lives, so how could they become enemies?

"Enmity? No!" Arthur pretended to be innocent and said,

"Then have you had any interactions recently?" Upon seeing this, Cobra thought that Arthur really didn't know, so he changed his question to see if Arthur had offended Valta without his knowledge!

"Yes!" Arthur nodded bluntly and said, "Speaking of which, I would also like to thank him. When I passed by the Drum Kingdom before, I stopped by to visit the Drum Kingdom!"

"Because the doctors in the Drum Kingdom are very famous, I proposed to their kingdom to recruit a few doctors, and his subordinates agreed to come after asking him, and then I recruited the doctors and left! "

"Doctor!?" Hearing this, Cobra was still confused, so he continued to ask, "How did you recruit?"

"I asked my hand to come to the door to ask, as long as you want to go with us, if you don't want to, forget it!" Arthur explained. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and said a little uncertainly, "Oh, by the way, it may be that he is willing to go with us more, that's why he is like this!"

After listening, Cobra couldn't help but feel sorry for Arthur.

You, Valta, a king, have promised others, even if they recruit a little more, there is no need to be so stingy?

The Drum Kingdom is not far from Alabasta, and they are still on the same waterway. Cobra naturally knows about the Drum Kingdom. Although he and Valta are not close friends, they also have an intersection, so how many doctors does the Drum Kingdom have? He probably knew that too.

In Cobra's eyes, even if Arthur recruited a little more, he wouldn't go there, especially those who were willing to leave the kingdom and live in other kingdoms in a country like the Drum Kingdom, which had no wars. Very few.

Arthur is in the sky. It would be good to recruit dozens of doctors. Compared with the 2,000 doctors in the drum kingdom, it is not a drop in the bucket, but it is really not much!

After thinking for a while, Cobra shouted to Valta in Box 5, "Your Majesty Valta, did my brother just recruit some doctors in your kingdom? Don't you get so angry? Besides, you allow it. , the doctor is also voluntary!"

Hearing this, Varta in Box 5 felt a surge of anger rush to his head, and he growled angrily, "Is that some? You tell me, more than 1,900 doctors were recruited out of 2,000 doctors. Doctor, also took away one-tenth of our kingdom’s 100,000 citizens, can you tell me that’s some?”

Suddenly, the audience fell into a strange silence!
