Chapter 216 Hanhai Auction (1)
Li Mang and his party drove the soul guide carriage towards Hanhai City.
Li Mang, Flanders, Ma Hongjun, and Ye Nihuang were in a carriage.
Shang Xuan, Li Canglan, and Lan Bing'er were in a carriage. Originally, Lan Bing'er wanted to be in a carriage with Li Mang, but Li Canglan whispered something in Lan Bing'er's ear, and then Lan Bing'er obediently walked with Li Canglan. car.
Tang Hao, A Yin, and Xiao San were in a carriage.
Sister Xiaorou, Xiao Wuhe and Da Ming and Er Ming who were disguised as humans were in a carriage. Da Ming and Er Ming also asked for the jade talisman from Li Mang. They were still soul beasts, so the jade talisman was The effect is not very good.
The master and Liu Erlong were in the same car. This was the travel list for this time.
That is to say, Li Mang was fast at making soul guidance device carriages, so he had so many soul guidance device carriages in reserve, otherwise he would have to squeeze in and make do.
Hanhai City is far away from Shrek, and the group walked for five days before arriving at Hanhai City.
Hanhai City is very large and is the largest sea port in Douluo Continent. After entering Hanhai City, the group quickly found the hotel. After settling in, several people left the hotel. Flanders, Master and Tang Hao went to hire sailors. The women went shopping with their children.
Li Mang, Daming and Er Ming were left alone, staring at each other. Li Mang had no one to take him with him, and it was inconvenient for Da Ming and Er Ming to go out, so the three of them were left alone to depend on each other.
"Let's go to the auction. Do you two want to go?" Li Mang suggested while sitting on the bed. He was really bored.
"Please, Xiao Mang, we are soul beasts. This is our first time entering a human city, okay? It's meaningless for you to ask us if we want to go." Daming said helplessly.
"Then let's go to the auction. Let's get going." Li Mang left the hotel with two hundred thousand year soul beasts. With a quick sweep of his mental energy, he knew where the auction was.
The auction in Hanhai City is not much smaller than the Tiandou Royal Auction in Tiandou Imperial City, and the architectural style is very similar to the Tiandou Royal Auction.
At the door of Hanhai Auction were two rows of girls in white short skirts. At this time, there were many people standing at the door of the auction. It seemed that a large auction was about to start today.
Li Mang followed the rules and stood at the back of the queue with Da Ming and Er Ming. After waiting in line for half an hour, it was finally Li Mang's and Da Ming Er Ming's turn.
"Please show me your invitation letter." A tall beauty bowed to Li Mang and then extended her hand with a smile.
"Where's the invitation letter? Do I still need an invitation letter to enter the auction?" Li Mang rolled his eyes and said with a slight embarrassment. Who knew that this Hanhai auction was only by invitation.
Da Ming and Er Ming looked at Li Mang with contempt. If they couldn't get in, it would be a shame.
"Then I can only ask you to show some information about your assets. If your assets exceed gold soul coins, you can enter directly. In that case, there is no need for an invitation letter." The maid noticed that Li Mang He was embarrassed, but he didn't make any sarcastic expression or say anything sarcastic. He still smiled and explained to Li Mang that it was obviously professional training to prevent him from offending those who pretended to be pigs and eat tigers.
"Here, there are one million gold soul coins in here. Check it out." Li Mang threw out a red gold soul coin storage card. A maid behind took the card and sent it to the auction. He ran out immediately.
"Sir, this is your card. Please come over here and I will take you into the venue." The maid handed Li Mang's card back with both hands with a smile on her face, as if she wanted to eat up Li Mang, a rich man.
Li Mang smiled and then took Da Ming and Er Ming into the auction. The interior of the auction was mainly blue, with various shells and corals as decorations. It did not look too extravagant, but There is a sense of elegance.
"The environment here is great, but the air is a bit damp." Er Ming muttered in a low voice.
"Be content, it will be like this every day after getting on the ship." Daming patted Er Ming on the shoulder and said.
"Come in quickly." Li Mang called to the two people behind him with a smile.
The maid brought the three of Li Mang into a separate bidding room. This may be the effect of Li Mang showing off one million gold soul coins. Although it is such a large auction, there are not many such separate bidding rooms.
Li Mang's bidding room is on the second floor. Looking down, you can see everything in the lobby on the first floor. The first floor is a place for ordinary bidders, and the seats are densely packed and very crowded.
The entire auction hall is a circular structure, with the display stand in the center and extending outward layer by layer around the display stand. The color of the chairs is also the same as that of the Tiandou Royal Auction. The floor closest to the display stand It's a red chair, then black, purple, yellow, white.
Among them, purple seats have the most. Li Mang stood on the second floor and looked down. The first floor was already overcrowded. Although it was an invitation-only auction, there may have been too many invitations sent out for this Hanhai Auction.
After an hour, the auction finally quieted down. Everyone found their seats and sat down in a polite manner. The auctioneer also walked onto the display stand.
"Welcome to Hanhai Auction. I am today's auctioneer Adler. Today is the venue for our annual super large auction at Hanhai Auction." Adler is a middle-aged man in his 40s. Wearing a black tuxedo, he is noble and elegant, and every move shows that he has undergone strict aristocratic etiquette education.
"Without further ado, the auction will begin now, and we have our first auction item." Adler waved, and two scantily clad maids pushed a small cart to the auction stage. On the cart was a square The real thing is covered with red cloth.
"Xiao Mang, what is this?" Daming asked Li Mang while sitting on a chair.
"It should be a soul beast, but what kind it is, I don't know." Li Mang frowned and said. His mental power could already see through the red cloth what it was. It was a creature similar to a fish. It should be a soul beast.
"It should be a century-old soul beast, but there are too many kinds of sea soul beasts. I don't know what this kind of soul beast is." Daming shook his head and said, and he also felt the aura of the soul beast inside.
"Are you interested?" Li Mang asked. He took Da Ming and Er Ming out to play. If Da Ming liked it, Li Mang wouldn't mind buying it for him.
"Do you want to take this for lunch? It's not even enough for me to fill my teeth." Daming said with a bitter smile, and then Li Mang and Daming stopped talking and looked at the stage quietly.
"This is our first auction item today, a -year-old blue gleaming light fish. This fish is a rare soul beast we caught from the deep sea. It is extremely suitable for being the first soul ring of a soul master. The starting price is three thousand gold. Soul coins, let’s start bidding now!” After Adler finished speaking, he knocked the table hard with the hammer in his hand, and then the enthusiasm of most people in the audience was ignited and they started bidding wildly.
The fishing industry in Douluo Continent is not developed because there are too many sea spirit beasts in the sea. If you are not careful, the whole boat will be sunk by the sea spirit beasts. The risk factor is too high, so few people fish in the sea. fish.
Moreover, century-old soul beasts are a very high-end auction item no matter where they are found. Almost all soul beasts will choose to self-destruct after being captured.
The century-old sea soul beast in front of you should fetch a very high price.
After a fierce bidding process, it was finally bought by a fat, wealthy businessman for gold soul coins.
"Thank you for your enthusiasm. Next, we will enter the display of the second auction item. Please give me the second auction item." Adler waved his hand, and this time a maid pushed a trolley to the display stand.
"Our second auction item today... is a flute hidden in the deep sea. Although it looks very ordinary, our explorers found it on an island in the deep sea. This is not a flute. An ordinary flute, it is a magical soul guide. As long as you blow it, all sea soul beasts will not come close. As long as you have it, you can swim unscrupulously on the sea. As for why this flute is auctioned Flute, because our grand finale today is a treasure map located in the deep sea, so my lords, the auction has begun, with a starting price of three thousand gold soul coins." Adler's words were full of temptation, and the bidders in the audience had already I lost interest, but when I heard Adler talking about the treasure map, the enthusiasm in the auction hall was ignited again.
The main force in bidding this time was not the rich, but the soul masters. These soul masters were the truly rich people. The price of the flute started from gold soul coins to gold soul coins.
"Thirty thousand!" Li Mang's voice spread from the second floor.
"This gentleman bids gold soul coins, is there anyone who continues to bid?" Adler felt that this price had reached the limit of the people in the bidding room, and no one would continue to increase the price, so he quickly raised the price after calling three times. The hammer struck.
"Then our third auction item is a mermaid caught from the deep sea. This kind of mermaid is familiar to everyone. They have beautiful faces, graceful figures, and sweet voices. Without further ado, the auction begins." Adler's face flushed with excitement.
Li Mang lost interest in the mermaid after just two glances. The mermaid is not a soul beast, but a mutation that occurs when humans awaken their fish souls. They are similar to Leopard Woman and Catwoman. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the auction room. .
"Hello, distinguished guest, this is your auction item." A scantily clad maid came to Li Mang's room carrying a red tray.
Li Mang picked up the flute from the tray, then placed a card containing gold soul coins in the tray. He waved his hand and signaled the maid to leave his room. The maid lowered her head and bowed to Li Mang. The body left.
Li Mang observed the flute. It was completely black, and the body of the flute was extremely clean, with no patterns at all.
Then Li Mang entered the flute with his mental power, wanting to find out what soul guidance device pattern this flute was made of, so that he could copy it and increase the reserve of Shrek's pattern.
But Li Mang was surprised to find that the appearance of the flute was covered with a black substance. His mental power could not break through this black substance, so Li Mang withdrew his mental power.
Li Mang frowned, put the flute in front of him and started playing with it. It seemed that someone was using special materials to cover up its original appearance. Li Mang suddenly had a premonition that he might have picked it up and missed it.
"Xiao Mang, don't you know a lot about precious plants? Look at what this is." Daming sat on a chair and watched the auction. He suddenly realized that the auction item was a plant, so he called Li Mang.
"Plant?" Li Mang put the flute back into the soul guide, then turned to look at the display stand, which was a seaweed shimmering with blue light.
"It has no medicinal properties, it is not a medicinal material, it has no spirituality, it is not a natural material or earthly treasure, it should be an ordinary luminous seaweed." Li Mang said after a mental exploration.
"It's the bud next to the seaweed." Daming said helplessly. He knew there was nothing special about this seaweed.
Li Mang frowned, and mentally came to the display stand again, and then used his mental power to feel what the sprout was.
"Asparagus?" Li Mang frowned and said.
"Thirty thousand gold soul coins!" Li Mang made a quick decision and directly called out the price, and now he only got gold soul coins.
"It's this gentleman again, thirty thousand gold soul coins, the first time, the cherished luminous water plant, the second time, the third time, congratulations to this gentleman for successfully bidding again." Adler dropped the hammer happily, this plant Seagrass Dingtian can sell 3 gold soul coins. Unexpectedly, this person directly paid gold soul coins, so that his commission would be huge.
"The next tenth item is a fish boat with diving function, but it may be a little small and can only be used by one person. The starting price is one thousand gold soul coins." Adler looked at the diving boat in the car that was as tall as one person. Boat, said slightly embarrassed.
"Tch, it's so small, I don't even want it for free."
"Going to sea alone is courting death."
……
The people in the audience started the group ridicule mode, and Adler's face became a little uneasy.
"One thousand gold soul coins." Li Mang also sat in the bidding room and looked at the display table. He thought this thing was quite good, so he shouted.
Adler was overjoyed when he heard Li Mang's bid. If something failed to sell, his salary would be deducted.
"Once in a thousand...twice...three times, deal done! Congratulations to this gentleman for getting this fish boat." Adler gratefully bowed in Li Mang's direction.
Later, Adler displayed several auction items, all of which were precious marine creations, corals, deep-sea crystals, deep-sea pearls...all kinds of things.
"The next auction item may not be liked by too many people. Of course, those who like it will treat it as a treasure." Adler opened the red cloth in front of him and showed this thing to everyone.
This is an irregular ore, and the ore is densely covered with things that look like pinholes.
"The mother of silver in the deep sea... does this thing flow out from here?" Li Mang said with his eyes widened.
