Chapter 104: The reason why Ning Fengzhi was on crutches
"That's the idea."
Ye Chen nodded.
"Didn't you see it? It seems that my nephew has a good family background~"
Ning Fengzhi was a little surprised. Soul bones are treasures in the soul master world. Even if they are century-old soul bones, the starting price of the auction is one million gold soul coins. How can Ye Chen be so rich at such a young age?
'Good nephew? Sooner or later I will call you a good son-in-law!'
Ye Chen thought to himself.
At this moment, a middle-aged auctioneer wearing a tuxedo walked onto the stage and the auction officially began.
Ye Chen originally thought that the auctioneer of this auction would be as 'ragged' as the waiters! Unexpectedly, he thought wrong, it was a more serious auction.
"Welcome all distinguished guests to attend the top-notch auction held at the Tiandou Auction House.
Without further ado, here’s the first auction item!”
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, a ragged young lady came over holding a tray.
"The first auction item is a storage soul guide with ten cubic meters of built-in space. The starting price is 10,000 gold soul coins. Each increase in price must not be less than 1,000!"
...
Ye Chen didn't have much interest in the ordinary auction items at the auction.
For example, similar storage soul guides are available in the system mall, and with the same built-in space, they are sold more cost-effectively than at auctions.
It's not like Ye Chen has never thought about flipping items sold in the system mall and earning the difference.
However, a few pieces were put up for auction and the profit was not much, so that was nothing.
But if the quantity is large, not only will it cause trouble, but it will also attract attention. It would be bad if the auction party tries to take advantage of others.
But not everyone is as disciplined as Ye Chen, and he must have done so in these auction houses.
Even if the auction house doesn't do the dirty work themselves, they can hire others to do it, or simply leak the news that Ye Chen is a big fat sheep.
The quantity is small, the profit is not much, the shipment volume is large, and the risk is not small, so Ye Chen thought about it carefully and gave up the idea.
And compared with Ye Chen's future gap of tens of billions of gold soul coins, it would only be a drop in the bucket to save money. It would be faster to rely on his own son's filial piety.
Occasionally, there were things that Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing liked, and Ye Chen bought them all.
Nearly two hours have passed, and the auction is coming to an end, and the penultimate auction item has begun.
I saw an iron cage appearing on the auction stage, and in the cage were two timid young ladies with pink hair and ragged clothes.
The ragged young ladies are not the point. The important point is that the two young ladies look very similar. They are obviously a pair of twins. Moreover, behind the two young ladies, there is a fluffy fox tail, which is unique and charming.
"Dear guests, this is a rare fox girl.
When the martial spirit awakened, his body mutated and took on some fox-like forms, and that tail was even more unique.
It is very rare for one to appear, let alone two this time, and they are twins, which is double the happiness!
Just imagine how happy it is to have two beautiful foxes as pets.
Everyone, the starting price for this pair of fox girls is 200,000 gold soul coins, and each increase in price must not be less than 10,000!"
As he spoke, the auctioneer had an ambiguous expression on his face.
The rare fox girls, and they were twins, made everyone excited. The whole auction reached a climax, and everyone started bidding.
"These bastards actually sell people as pets."
Xiao Wu couldn't help but said angrily.
"Tsk~, rotten nobles~"
Ye Chen shook his head and sighed. To be honest, this was his first time seeing a slave trade.
On the other hand, Zhu Zhuqing's demeanor did not change much.
Born into a noble family in the Star Luo Empire, she knew clearly that the slave trade was a common occurrence in the aristocratic circle.
Although the laws of the Tiandou Empire stipulate that slaves cannot be traded, those nobles have many ways to circumvent this restriction.
For example, if they are not slaves in the Tiandou Empire, can they be bought and sold?
Or even if you are a person within the Tiandou Empire, you only need to forge your place of origin to bypass restrictions.
This is the Tiandou Auction House. It is impossible to say that the Xue family of the royal family is not a vested interest.
Blatantly violating the law shows the decay of the Tiandou Empire. No wonder he can't defeat the Wuhun Palace.
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi pressed the 10,000 bidding button in front of her.
Originally, Ning Fengzhi was still debating whether to buy it or not, but when she saw the looks of the pair of fox girls, she immediately suppressed the LSP spirit that was about to move.
This operation immediately attracted the contemptuous looks of Ye Chen and the others.
"Ahem, I am saving them from suffering. After all, as slaves, the fate waiting for them is not very good."
Ning Fengzhi explained awkwardly.
"Uncle Ning, is this why you are on crutches?"
Ye Chen pointed to the crutch in Ning Fengzhi's hand and said quietly.
Ning Fengzhi: "..."
I have a bad waist, it’s none of your business!
If it weren't for the fact that Ye Chen was his classmate, he would have hit him with a cane.
"I didn't expect Rongrong's father to be such a person."
Xiao Wu next to him whispered into Zhu Zhuqing's ear.
Although Xiao Wu's voice was very low, Ning Fengzhi was a Seven-Huan Soul Saint after all, and his ears were still very good, so he naturally heard it.
"Xiao Wu, that's not the case. I think they still have souls, and it's caused by the mutation of their martial souls. Now that I have encountered them, how can I not save them?"
Ning Feng Zhiyi defended righteously.
‘Save? Shouldn’t we save him on the bed?’
Ye Chen secretly complained, but he didn't say it out loud. After all, he was his future father-in-law, so he had to save some face.
Listening to Ning Fengzhi's explanation, Xiao Wu blinked her eyes, obviously not believing it.
Helpless, Ning Fengzhi had no choice but to turn her head and click the bidding button again.
The bidding price at this time has increased to 590,000 gold soul coins, and it seems that there is still a trend of increasing.
The auctioneer said with excitement: "Five hundred and ninety thousand. A red VIP bid has reached five hundred and ninety thousand gold soul coins. Is there anyone who wants to bid more?"
"Six hundred thousand, okay, a black VIP bid reached six hundred thousand!"
"The second time of 600,000 gold soul coins, the third time of 600,000 gold soul coins, the deal is done! These fox girls belong to this black distinguished guest!"
After Ning Fengzhi's bid reached 600,000 gold soul coins, no one raised the bid, and the auction was a success.
"Tsk tsk, Uncle Ning, is your Qibao Glazed Sect so rich?"
Chapter completed!
