Chapter 307 Who Is Behind the Scenes
The Kyoto Auction House is located in the most prosperous center of the commercial street, and the entrance is already overcrowded. Whether it is a lord, a gang leader, or even a lone ranger, they all appeared.
The event was unprecedented.
Taking this opportunity, the Kyoto Auction House specially held a large-scale auction before the annual auction, which can be regarded as a warm-up for the final feast.
There are all kinds of items in the special auction.
Although not as rare as the anniversary auction, they are all high-quality goods, and the item level is above the gold level. Basically, they are all items entrusted by high-end players.
Not everyone can covet the treasures at the annual auction, and most players just come to join in the fun. The special auction just caters to the needs of these players, and the excitement can be imagined.
At the entrance of the auction, a group of players gathered together, looking a little anxious.
"Why hasn't the boss come here? The auction is about to start. Could it be that something happened?"
"Crow mouth!"
"Gaia is also a pain in the ass, and it doesn't even have a remote communication function."
"Okay, okay, let me tell you to be patient, please wait a little longer!"
"You said, the boss is shopping with the sister-in-law, forgetting the time, right? You value sex over friends!"
"Little lion, dare to speak ill of the boss behind his back, be careful to sue him~~~~"
"Ah?" The siege lion turned pale with shock, and said with a forced smile: "Ahaha, I know you can't do Xunlong, right? Haha, we are good buddies, good buddies."
"Five times Qingfengyuan!"
"What? Is it too cruel?"
Qingfengyuan is the largest brothel in Kyoto, and it costs at least a hundred gold at a time.
"That means we can't talk?"
"Deal!" The siege lion wept silently, who asked himself to die.
There is a saying, if you don't die, you won't die.
Feng Prisonhuang heard the two of them talking more and more outrageous, and spat: "Dirty ruffian!"
"Sister Feng, we are very pure."
"What did you call me?" Feng Prisonhuang immediately frowned, furious, and was about to go mad.
Xunlong Dianxuan looked at the siege lions who were constantly dying in silence, gloating at their misfortune.
The siege lion wanted to die, so why couldn't he control his mouth. He licked his face and said flatteringly: "Sister Fengwu, dear sister, I was wrong, really, it's more real than real gold!"
Feng Prisonhuang threw him a hygienic eye, ignored him, and turned to chat with Bai Hua.
A group of members of the Shanhaimeng stood guard at the entrance of the auction, which was really eye-catching; not only were they famous, but Phoenix Prisoner Huang and Bai Hua were also first-class beauties, which were really dazzling.
*************
The assassination that took place on the commercial street did not affect the prosperity of Kyoto at all, just like a drop of rainwater poured into the sea, it disappeared instantly.
Accompanied by Song Jia, Ouyang Shuo found a medical clinic, bandaged the wound and rushed to the auction house. No matter what, he couldn't miss this auction house.
As for the investigation of the six doors, Ouyang Shuo didn't expect too much.
The investigation scope of the Six Doors is limited to Kyoto, and outside of Kyoto, they are powerless to investigate.
As long as the assassin leaves Kyoto, he can basically get away with it.
Of course, according to Ouyang Shuo's description, Six Doors will also draw wanted portraits and post them in the Nine Kings City. The actual effect will depend on Ouyang Shuo's influence.
Obviously, Ouyang Shuo's status at this time is not enough to mobilize the Nine Kings City.
Compared with tracking down the killer of [Blood Blade], Ouyang Shuo paid more attention to who invited [Blood Blade] to act as the mastermind behind the scenes and put him to death.
As a lord, the level is not very important, reincarnating once, there is not much loss.
The crux of the problem is that after the system is updated, the player needs to stay in the reincarnation hall for half a day before they can come out. In this way, if Ouyang Shuo is assassinated to death, he will miss this system auction.
The intentions of the people behind the scenes are not without sinister.
Ten minutes before the auction started, Ouyang Shuo and his party rushed to the auction house.
Ouyang Shuo's arrival caused a commotion. The wrapped bandages wrapped Ouyang Shuo into half a rice dumpling. If he wasn't someone he knew well, he would definitely not be able to recognize him.
"Boss, boss?" The siege lion ran over first.
"Don't look, it's me!"
The eyes of the siege lion looking at the precious animals made Ouyang Shuo very speechless.
"I'm going, Boss, are you going to peek at which girl is taking a bath or something? Why did you get beaten like this?" The siege lion didn't understand what Ouyang Shuo meant, and continued to gossip.
If it wasn't for the inconvenient hands and feet, Ouyang Shuo really wanted to cut him, could he be so heartless? !
He is the wounded, the wounded! ! !
"Xiao Shuo, what did you do?" Aunt Lin Jing and Xie Siyun walked over together.
Others also gathered around.
"After the auction is over, I'll explain it to everyone in detail, let's go in first!"
The Kyoto Auctioneer specially prepared boxes for the ten territories and the ten guilds. The members of the Shanhai League simply transferred to the box where Ouyang Shuo was, and acted together.
In the aisle, Sha Pojun suddenly walked out of the box.
He was sharp-eyed, and immediately recognized Ouyang Shuo. He was taken aback, and then jokingly said, "Hey, isn't this the Great Lord Wuyi? How did he make it like this? Could it be cosplay? Haha~~~~"
Ouyang Shuo ignored Sha Po Jun and went straight into his own box.
"Bah!" Sha Pojun's face was ashen, and he returned to the box bored.
Ouyang Shuo was in Box No. 1 of the auction, which was more than enough to accommodate members of the Shanhai League.
After sitting down, Song Jia asked: "Wuyi, could it be that Sha Pojun did it?"
As a representative of the gray forces, it is not surprising that Shapojun has a connection with the [Blood Blade] organization.
Ouyang Shuo shook his head, "It's not like him."
Sha Pojun had no motive for committing the crime. He hated Ouyang Shuo, but with limited financial resources, it was difficult to do anything in the auction. There was no need to assassinate him to prevent Ouyang Shuo from participating in the auction.
The biting dogs didn't bark, but Ouyang Shuo suspected that Chun Shenjun might have done it.
In the first auction, Chunshen Jun was full of confidence, but he was slapped by Ouyang Shuo and returned empty-handed. For this auction, Chun Shenjun must have prepared more fully, so he was more concerned about Ouyang Shuo's existence.
"What are you two talking about? Xiao Shuo, what's the matter with your injury?"
Since my aunt asked about it, Ouyang Shuo simply told everyone about the assassination.
All of a sudden, the box opened up.
"mean!"
"asshole!"
"It's disgusting!"
Xie Siyun frowned: "[Blood Blade]? Why was there no news at all before?"
"Maybe [Rattlesnake] knows something."
"That's right!"
Everyone wanted to continue talking, and at this moment, the auction started.
Different from the first system auction, the second auction has more items, a total of 108 items, among which the top ten finale works are waiting for the final auction.
Because there are so many items, the auction mode is different from the first time.
The auction is divided into two stages. The first stage is a secret auction. Players can bid for each lot, and the price is limited to one hour. Each lot has only one chance to bid and cannot be modified.
After the quotation ends, the one with the highest quotation will get it automatically.
Ouyang Shuo held a pamphlet in his hand, which introduced the list of items for this auction in detail.
In the list of items, there are various scrolls, tokens, treasures, and weaponry manufacturing technical manuals that lord players need, as well as equipment, pills, skill books, and exercises that adventure players love.
Variety.
Every item is at the dark gold level, and there are even one or two purple gold items.
As for the finale, it still continues Gaia's mysterious style, which has not been disclosed yet.
Among the members of the Mountain Sea League, apart from Ouyang Shuo, Bai Hua, Feng Prison Huang, and Shang Xuemei were also looking forward to the finale, and everyone else set their sights on the first lot.
Ouyang Shuo picked out a [Territorial Characteristic Scroll] (1), and offered 2000 gold coins, so he didn't sell any more. His goal was to aim at the finale.
Soon, after an hour passed, Ouyang Shuo successfully won [Territory Characteristics Scroll] (1).
The others also had their own gains. Bai Hua took a copy of the "Shield Manufacturing Technical Manual", and Feng Prisonhuang took a copy of the "Epee Forging Technical Manual". Everyone was happy.
Only the siege lion, a lot he valued, was not won because the price was too low.
"Calling you to be stingy!" Xunlong Dian's Acupuncture showed his trademark gloating expression again.
The siege lion wants to cry but has no tears. He thinks it must be because he didn't read the almanac when he went out today.
*************
The second stage is the real grand finale.
The first auctioneer of the Kyoto Auction House stepped onto the stage, and ten beauties lined up behind the auctioneer, each holding a tray in their hands, covered with a red silk cloth.
After a brief opening statement, the auction begins immediately.
"The first lot will be auctioned now."
The first beauty stepped forward and lifted the red silk cloth on the tray, revealing a token.
The auctioneer introduced: "This is a silver-level village building token. The base price is 10,000 gold coins, and the price is 30,000 gold coins. Please bid."
Worthy of being the finale, the first lot caused a sensation in the audience.
If it was a year ago, such a rare village building token would have been auctioned for a sky-high price.
It's a pity that a year has passed and the forces in the wilderness have already taken shape. Even with a silver-level village building token, the lord can't gain a foothold in the wilderness.
The most important thing is that even if you have funds, you can only advance slowly if you are limited to your own title.
Ouyang Shuo's heart moved, he had already made a decision, the village building token, which was of little significance in the eyes of others, was like a divine tool to him.
"11,000 gold coins!" Someone tried to bid.
After the quotation was made, no one followed suit, and there was a rare silence.
The sudden situation made the auctioneer a little overwhelmed, and he tried his best to say: "11,000 gold coins, 11,000 gold coins, is there any bid?" There was a hint of pleading in his eyes.
If the token for building the village is taken away like this, he will definitely be unable to bear it.
"15,000 gold coins!" Ouyang Shuo quoted.
Wow~~~~
A group of players looked at the No. 1 box with foolish expressions. Everyone knows that the person sitting in Box No. 1 is the most powerful lord in China——Qiyue Wuyi.
To be rich is to be willful!
If it was just a low price, there would still be people arguing about it. Unexpectedly, when Ouyang Shuo directly mentioned 15,000 gold coins, the players' minds immediately cooled down.
Not everyone is as rich as Ouyang Shuo, who spends thousands of dollars casually.
Just like that, the first lot fell into Ouyang Shuo's pocket smoothly.
