Chapter 245 The Qin Family Patriarch

It must be said that Qin Yu's identity is very useful. As the head of the Qin family, he can arrange everything with just one phone call.

At this time, Chu Xiu was standing on the 27th floor of the most luxurious hotel near the auction. From this angle, he could see the magnificent Magic City Auction House.

The auction house is divided into a main hall and four sub-hall. The main hall is located in the middle, and the four sub-hall are in a protective posture. The basic shape of each hall is like a super-large opera house with a classical shape. There is a huge statue of a mythical beast guarding the sky, and the hall is also named after these mythical beasts.

Suzaku, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, Azure Dragon and Kirin!

It is said that the five statues are not only for decoration, but also five extremely powerful war puppets. However, since they have never been attacked since they were built, this statement cannot be verified.

"Master, the auction list has been issued."

The respectful voice of the Qin family steward came from the door. Chu Xiu said "um" and retracted his eyes from the magnificent auction house.

He took the information collected by the steward and flipped through it, and soon he had an idea.

Like previous years, this year's auction is also divided into two forms: public and private.

Public auction is the traditional form of auction, where the items are displayed in the store and everyone bids together.

But the disadvantage of this auction is that it must be traded through general equivalents, and in the awakened world, causal points are prohibited from trading, and the purchasing power of Huaxia currency is very limited. The higher the level of awakened, the less need for Huaxia currency.

So there is a private auction, which is an auction in which the auctioneer goes on stage to display the items and then conducts a private barter auction.

It is worth mentioning that private auctions are almost the only channel that currently allows causal point transactions.

After all, the prohibition of causal point transactions is to exploit the lower class, not to restrict the master. As the natural general equivalent of the abyss world, causal points can bring too much trading convenience.

Generally speaking, the four bureaus will not care about the transactions between high-level awakeners, but if they dare to purchase causal points from low-level awakeners, even if they only trade a little, it will be a felony if they are discovered.

After all, this is equivalent to grabbing food from the Eight Heavenly Kings.

"In private transactions, the value of causal points ranges from 250,000 to 350,000, which is much more expensive than exchanging with the three major forces."

Specifically, it is roughly 30 times the price of purchasing from the bottom.

This terrifying price difference still makes Chu Xiu feel a little incredible when he thinks about it. In his previous life, there was a saying that if there was a three-fold profit, capital would dare to commit any crime, even at the risk of being hanged. This is 30 times the profit, how can it be maintained stable?

In the end, it can only be attributed to the emergence of the extraordinary power of the abyss world, which has allowed the upper class to control the lower class to an incredible level.

In his previous life, after occupying the African mining area, the Western colonists plundered more than 99% of the value of the ore. The ore worth tens of millions fell into the hands of the locals at a price that could barely maintain their food and clothing.

Thinking about it this way, the eight kings were not too much. At least as long as the awakened people at the bottom level were willing to go down to the abyss, even if they were ordinary level, they would get many times more benefits than ordinary workers.

Of course, it is also possible that the price was set in order to maintain the status of the awakened people so that more people could participate in the awakening trial for sustainable development.

Shaking his head, Chu Xiu did not think about it any more, but carefully browsed the specific information of the items for sale.

The first three days were public auctions, divided into five categories: [Equipment], [Props], [Materials], [Others], and [Treasures]. Among them, [Treasures] were held in the main venue.

And three days would hold three levels of sales, basic, advanced, and high-end, to meet the auction needs of awakened people of different levels.

After that, there would be a one-day private trade fair. Only those above the king level could enter the private trade fair in the main venue, which was also Chu Xiu's main goal.

He looked at the auction list. If nothing unexpected happened, he could collect most of the auxiliary materials at the final high-end auction.

"Then we are missing the main materials of the [Four Symbols Yin-Yang Furnace] and the [Eight Desolations Nether Fire Formation]."

The main materials are crucial, affecting more than 70%. If you want to refine a fourth-grade secret treasure in one go, the ordinary materials at the public auction are not enough!

At the end of each auction, there will be ten mysterious items. If you still don't have them, you can only try your luck at a private trade fair.

As for the [anchor point], he asked Qin Xiang for the country's internal assessment data on various worlds in Yuancheng these days, and finally selected nine worlds that are very suitable for him.

It's just that the anchor points of these nine worlds are all in high price, so it's hard to say whether you can meet them. If not, Chu Xiu can only choose from the 38 candidate worlds selected later.

Knowing what he has in mind, he threw the list aside casually and planned to continue to recover.

But at this time, the Qin family's housekeeper suddenly said hesitantly: "Master, the elders have a favor to ask."

"What is it?"

"Several young people in the clan are also in the Magic City. They are the most talented young people in the clan. The elders would like you to take them to see the world." The housekeeper lowered his head, a little nervous. "It just so happens that two families that are on good terms with our family are also traveling together. One of them is expected to become a relative of our family. Several elders also want you to check it out."

Hearing this, Chu Xiu frowned slightly.

He quickly recalled the information about the Qin family.

The Qin family originally had two kings, and their total assets reached over 100 billion.

Unfortunately, the two kings encountered unexpected events in the abyss, which also led to the rapid decline of the Qin family. They had no choice but to invite Qin Yu back two years ago, which barely stopped the decline.

However, Qin Yu has lived abroad all year round and has no feelings for the Qin family at all. Taking the position of the head of the family is nothing more than an exchange of interests. On weekdays, Shenlong is invisible. He has been the head of the family for two years and has not shown his face a few times.

This is also a big reason why Chu Xiu chose to buy this identity. There is almost no social interaction in the country, which allows him to avoid a lot of trouble.

From this point of view, the so-called bringing a junior to marry is most likely an excuse. The real purpose is probably to let him take the opportunity to show his strength in front of his partners and dispel some people's unreasonable thoughts.

"By the way, the matter of raising funds that you asked me to raise has been completed. Half of your property has been exchanged for a total of 2.17 billion. The family has provided you with an additional 1.78 billion for a total of 3.95 billion."

Seeing Chu Xiu's delay in answering, the steward said nervously again.

This made Chu Xiu a little funny. Is this 1.78 billion the protection fee handed over by the Qin family?

However, he was mentally prepared to deal with these small things before purchasing the identity, so he nodded indifferently and said briefly: "Okay."

After receiving the agreement, the steward heaved a sigh of relief and bowed respectfully.

Next, Chu Xiu rested in peace and quiet in a high-end hotel. By the time the high-end auction began on the third day, he had almost returned to his prime.

"Dong dong dong."

Rhythmic knocking sounded outside the door: "Master, the special car is ready."

Chu Xiu pushed the door open and walked out. The steward stood respectfully outside the door. Beside him, there were three young men, two men and one woman, all with extraordinary bearing and handsome appearance.

Qin Xiuwen, the eldest son of the previous head of the family, is thirty-one years old. He has a level 3 general cultivation level and an A-level career with A-level talent. He is the first among the younger generation in the clan and is also the candidate for this marriage.

Qin Yunrou, the daughter of the former head of the family, is nineteen years old, has a ninth-level warrior level, A-level career and B-level talent, and is the most favored legitimate daughter.

Qin Chuan, a collateral genius, is twenty-three years old, has a level 9 cultivation level in the vicious class, an S-level professional and A-level talent, and is a person that the family focuses on cultivating.

Information about the three people flashed through Chu Xiu's mind. He lowered his eyes slightly. The three of them immediately became cautious. However, it could be seen that the two boys had good temperaments. As for Qin Yunrou, she was quite different. She seemed to be a person who was usually loved by others. The doting young lady.

Without saying any more, Chu Xiu walked downstairs, and the others hurriedly followed.

Soon, several people arrived at the main venue in a million-dollar luxury car. After the steward handed over his business card, a waiter ushered them into a special private room.

At this time, there were about ten people sitting in the room. As soon as they saw Chu Xiu, two middle-aged men stood up and greeted him warmly.

These two people are naturally the heads of the other two families. They are both king-level experts. Even if they are not released specifically, they can still feel the strong oppression of the natural superiors in their bodies.

Chu Xiu didn't react at all, he still restrained all his aura like a stone, and just shook hands with the two of them in a neither humble nor overbearing manner.

This made the two heads of the family look at each other, and both saw a look of uncertainty in the other's eyes.

Chu Xiu didn't give out any breath at all, and the two of them didn't dare to use detection skills rashly, so they couldn't tell the level at all.

"Brother Qin, you don't mind if I call myself brother by two years older than you, right?" The head of the He family stepped forward to be polite.

"Don't mind."

"Brother Qin, you have been abroad for many years. Do you feel any discomfort when you return to China this time?"

"No."

"Brother Qin, the abyss world you usually explore should have mostly foreign awakened people, right?"

"yes."

The error-free version is being read! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.

"Can I take the liberty to ask which world it is? Our three families are closely related. If there is a suitable opportunity, we can explore it together, right?"

"There is no chance. I am also looking for a new world this time."

"That's a coincidence. I happen to know a few suitable worlds. Do you need me to introduce them to you?"

"No need."

"."

Chu Xiu's cold response made the two family heads look at each other, feeling a little numb. With their status, it was rare to see such people who were too lazy to say a single unnecessary word.

Don’t foreigners socialize?

At the same time, they also had some doubts in their hearts. The current head of the Qin family was suddenly found by the Qin family two years ago. How could a foreign relative of king rank appear by such a coincidence? Is Wangjie some Chinese cabbage?

Moreover, there is very little information about this strange Wang Jie abroad, and he looks like a lone ranger who does not interact with others at all.

Therefore, many people speculated that this was actually a cover-up move by the Qin family. It seemed that only two families were present this time, but in fact many forces were waiting for the results of the test.

The person in front of me is acting like this. Could it be that he is worried that he will make too many mistakes if he says too much, so he simply adopts a posture that is not good at speaking?

The two heads of the family were muttering in their hearts, but naturally Chu Xiu would not explain, and his behavior was in line with the character. Qin Yu had this character, otherwise he would not have no friends, and he died inexplicably in the abyss, even if he had no one to support his identity. Know.

He just sat down and waited for the auction to begin.

Fortunately, although he behaved a bit unkindly, there was no one present who was not a social expert with a thick skin as thick as a city wall. He quickly and smoothly transferred the conversation partner to the junior. Everyone was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Chu Xiu also met Qin Xiuwen's marriage partner, a girl with very fair skin and who looked quite shy.

It was impossible for him to point fingers at this marriage. He just took a look and focused his attention on the auction house.

Not long after, the host came on stage, and after reading the opening remarks, the auction officially began.

"Let us invite you to the first exhibit, the king-level legendary equipment, [Fire Demon Lord's Great Sword]!"

"This is dropped in the world of [Endless Purgatory]. It is the exclusive equipment of the Fire Demon Lord. It has six attributes! The first is."

The host's passionate voice spread through every corner of the auction house through the loudspeaker, and what came up was a king-level legend, which also made the atmosphere on the scene instantly heated up!

This powerful piece of equipment was sold for a high price of 50 billion in just half a minute!

The final transaction price was 67.4 billion!

Although the prices of the auction items that appeared next have dropped a lot, they are all priceless treasures. The transaction prices are almost never less than 2 billion. Among them, there are many materials that Chu Xiu can use, which he looks at with relish. .

The top materials are all common. For example, tanks and aircraft carriers are both made of steel. Although the type and strength are different, the main body is steel, not wood.

However, Chu Xiu had already chosen the item he wanted, so he just listened to the host's introduction to learn more about it and did not bid.

The items he selected were relatively late, so when the auction was halfway over, he still said nothing.

"Brother Qin, why don't you take action?"

Beside him, the head of the He family finally couldn't help but asked.

The items and bids in the auction can greatly reveal a person's true background. It would be too suspicious if Chu Xiu did not make any move at the end of the entire auction.

Chu Xiu glanced at him and said calmly: "No."

This word made the head of the He family choke, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

Fortunately, the host's voice came to his rescue: "What we are going to auction next is an extremely precious piece of jewelry. Ms. Jiang Lingzhu, a jewelry master from the Jiang family of the four great families in Kyoto, selected the world's finest jewelry from the [Deep Rock Cave]. The jewelry is made by myself, and besides being stunningly beautiful, it is also a powerful piece of equipment in its own right!”

"I want to invite you to buy jewelry [Mystery of the Ocean]! The starting price is 50 million Chinese coins!"

At this time, a blue necklace was displayed on the exhibition stand, which caused bursts of exclamations from the ladies present.

This piece of equipment is only a piece of warrior-level equipment and is not qualified to go to the high-end auction house. However, it is obvious that many years of auction business have allowed the Magic City Auction House to accumulate a lot of experience. It is known that among the high-level awakened people who came to the scene this time, there are Many people brought their families with them, so some flashy little things like this were interspersed with the auction of treasures.

This kind of thing is more like a luxury item than equipment. If you put it in a low-level auction house, no one will buy it, but in a high-end auction house, it will have unexpected effects.

And sure enough, due to the enthusiasm of the ladies, the price of this piece of jewelry also rose rapidly, and soon exceeded 200 million, which was far more than the price of a piece of supreme military equipment.

However, Chu Xiu also had to admit that this necklace was indeed very beautiful. At least the girls in their box looked straight at it.

"Gudong."

Qin Yunrou swallowed softly, looked at the steward aside, opened her mouth to say something, but swallowed it, but after looking at the beautiful necklace again, she couldn't help but speak: "Uncle Zhao, I'll do it right away. It’s time to take part in the trial, and I just need a necklace.”

Hearing this, a troubled look appeared on the steward's face, and he finally whispered: "You have to ask the head of the family about this."

Qin Yunrou opened her mouth, but finally said nothing.

However, although her voice was very low, it was still heard by the two family heads.

The head of the Xu family smiled, turned to Chu Xiu and said: "This necklace is indeed good. In addition to being beautiful, its properties are also very useful. It has a shield and a purification spell, which is perfect for dealing with the ever-changing situations in the trial."

As the words fell, Qin Yunrou's beautiful almond eyes immediately lit up, as if she had received some kind of encouragement, and she looked at Chu Xiu hopefully.

"Home, Master, is it okay? I will definitely make good use of it!"
