Chapter 1543 Bidding

Tina and the other four did not know that Jia Zhengjin had come to the auction venue.

Just now, the soldiers of Duolunbu secretly passed a message to the female knights around them through the auction staff, and then the female knights told them that when Jia Zhengjin came out of the Titan Labyrinth, they also thought about rushing to pick him up.

But they heard that their husband went to the palace to discuss matters immediately after returning, so they thought it would not be too late to go back after the auction, but they did not expect that he would come out so soon after going to the palace.

Jia Zhengjin, Apal and Olivia sat at the back of the venue, and no one noticed.

Because the atmosphere of the live auction was quite lively, everyone's attention was on the venue.

When the auction was over and finally entered the end of this auction, the auctioneer announced that the last item of the day was to have dinner with the famous Miss Perrigi.

The scene was immediately excited. Obviously, most people came for Miss Perrigi. They started to raise their cards just to have a meal with her.

The starting price was 50 gold coins, which was actually very exaggerated.

After all, ordinary people only spend a few dozen copper coins a day on food, and only spend three or four gold coins a year. The expenses of the whole family combined are not that much.

Who would have thought that having a meal with Miss Perrigi would cost an ordinary person seven or eight years of total expenses?

This is just the starting price. In the blink of an eye, the price was driven up to 800 gold coins by the idle rich people at the scene, which is even more jaw-dropping.

Jia Zhengjin couldn't figure it out anyway. Just having a meal with a woman would cost such a huge fortune. Isn't this just a waste of time?

The problem is that the wealthy nobles or big businessmen at the scene are fine, but his wife Tina is also among the ranks of actively bidding. And at least most of the prices were driven up by her, which is even more speechless.

Although there is no shortage of gold coins now, there is no way to spend them like this. It's simply a waste of money!

It seems that I have to find time to popularize the knowledge of thrift and diligence with them, so that they know that it is not so easy to earn some gold coins! (No wonder, the task reward paid by the king just now plus the system reward has exceeded hundreds of millions of gold coins!)

Why are Tina and the others so enthusiastic in raising their cards? They are all women. Isn't it boring to spend a lot of money to eat with another strange woman who they don't know? Or are they asked by the auction house to act as their agents here?

It shouldn't be that serious, right? After all, they are the wives of the Lord of Shenglong City. There is no need to lower their status to act as agents for a small auction house, and they have also bid for so many things.

With doubtful thoughts, Jia Zhengjin frowned and asked the auction owner beside him.

The auction owner immediately swore that he had never asked them to act as agents, and he didn't even know their identities. If the Duke hadn't asked, he probably wouldn't have known that those people who were shrouded in the clouds and whose faces could not be seen were women.

This is even more strange. If that's the case, why is Tina so enthusiastic about raising the placard?

There were many people who participated in raising the placard in front, and everyone was unwilling to give in to each other, and they were aggressive.

But when the price was auctioned to more than 800 gold coins, most people fell silent, and only two or three people were still insisting.

In a blink of an eye, the price was called up to 1200 gold coins, and only Tina and a noble lord with curly hair on the other side were left holding up the sign. No one else was willing to bid, obviously they had already exceeded their psychological price.

Tina was obviously a little hesitant, probably thinking the amount was too high. But seeing the smug look on the face of the noble lord with curly hair, she bid again. The two of them went back and forth, until the other party called out 2000 gold coins, Tina stopped, looked in the direction of the other party with some reluctance, but did not continue to raise the price.

Of course, she had more than this amount of gold coins on her. Not to mention the pocket money Jia Zhengjin usually gave them, just when she was at home inspecting the mines, she would "embezzle" some gold mines and gems from time to time, which added up to tens of thousands of gold coins. Not to mention her parents who farmed and sold fruits, and every day, a truckload of goods was taken away by merchants, earning countless gold coins.

Even if she had no money, Perrin, Christina, and Amy could easily get tens of thousands of gold coins, so why would she care about these 2000?

Of course, having money does not mean you are willing to throw it away. Especially spending such a large sum of money, how will she answer when her husband asks about it?

She obviously still has some concerns, so when she sees the auctioneer on the stage raising the hammer to count, even if she can't see his face, she can feel that she is particularly entangled.

It's just a meal, is it really that important?

Jia Zhengjin felt confused and couldn't figure out what his wife was thinking.

Originally, he thought it was good, saving unnecessary expenses.

However, when he turned his head to look at the curly-haired noble lord, he saw that he was very proud, especially looking at Tina and the others with a particularly contemptuous look, and even spit and said to himself: "A few poor mercenaries dare to challenge me? Overestimating their own abilities!"

At that time, I felt a little angry. Regardless of the money, she was my wife. Of course, I would be angry if someone looked down on her like this. Even if the other party didn't know the true identity of Tina and the others, they just thought they were a group of mercenaries with no status.

Of course, he was unhappy that Tina and the others spent money recklessly. But being despised by others with such an attitude made him even more intolerable. So when the auctioneer counted to two and was about to drop the hammer, he quickly raised the sign in his hand and shouted, "3000 gold coins!"

The sudden raising of the sign from behind stunned everyone in the venue, including the curly-haired nobleman.

He turned back to look at Jia Zhengjin, thinking where did this come from? He glared at him fiercely and threatened him with his eyes not to go against him.

Jia Zhengjin looked at him with contempt and said to him: "Poor!"

The curly-haired nobleman exploded on the spot, pointed at Jia Zhengjin and wanted to rush over to fight him. But thinking about the occasion and his own status, he resisted and raised his card to bid: "3100 gold coins!"

Tina and the others also turned back to see Jia Zhengjin, surprised and happy.

"3500 gold coins!" Jia Zhengjin rolled his eyes at them and continued to bid.

Tina understood from his rolling eyes that her husband actually had some opinions about this auction, but he still bid for them.

They certainly had enough gold coins, but they considered that spending too much at one time would make it difficult for their husbands to accept. After all, every time they went out to buy a lot, they never reached such a high consumption.

Don't look at the husband's current bidding. I'm afraid he will find them to hold a family meeting on this matter after returning home.

Several women looked at each other and quickly discussed in a low voice how to explain to their husbands after the auction, and at the same time asked him not to be angry.

During this period, Jia Zhengjin and the curly-haired noble kept bidding, and the price had reached a terrifying price of 4500 gold coins.

Facing Jia Zhengjin's aggressiveness, the curly-haired noble's eyes were full of hatred. He looked back at Jia Zhengjin, then sat down unwillingly, and did not raise the card again.

In the end, 4500 gold coins were used to have dinner with Miss Perrigi, but Jia Zhengjin could not help but sigh that the money was spent in vain!
