Pirate Journalist

Chapter 21 Auction

Murphy was wandering around the auction house leisurely. The auction was about to start, but he had no intention of approaching it at all.

"Wait a while before going there. These so-called nobles of the world are really troublesome. No matter where they go, they are such a big show."

While walking around from a distance, he watched the entrance of the auction house.

At that place, a large group of people knelt on the ground, welcoming the arrival of the two Tianlong people.

"Lord Charmarco, Lord Itilia Palace, welcome!" The person in charge of the auction house knelt on the ground, welcoming the arrival of the Tianlongren.

"Lead the way!" The Celestial Dragonman named St. Charmarco didn't even look at him, but just ordered casually.

St. Charmarco looks taller, and his dress is also somewhat different from other Tianlong people. The others wear a round hood, while he wears a square hood.

The chains in his hands are connected to two of his slaves, one of which is a tall slave, who is crawling on all fours, carrying him forward, and the other is a woman, wearing a bracelet and anklet, following with tears on her face later.

Beside St. Charmarco, there is also a female Celestial Dragon, who looks like his sister, and is called Itilia Palace by the person in charge. She also brings slaves, and she is obviously preparing to participate in this auction together.

"My lord, may I beg you to waive the kneeling ceremony in the venue?"

"No courtesy, otherwise the auction will not be able to proceed."

Every time a Tianlong person participates in the auction, the person in charge of the auction house will ask a question. Although he knows the answer clearly, the process cannot be missed.

As the Tianlong people slowly entered the arena, several slaves stayed at the door in a very orderly manner, their faces were expressionless, they just stared blankly at the front, without any anger.

The entrance of the auction house slowly returned to normal, and the kneeling people gradually stood up, with some grievances on their faces, and then quickly recovered, as if they had long been used to it.

This is the momentum of the Tianlong people, the descendants of the so-called creator, the nobles of the world, enjoy dignity wherever they go.

Murphy also walked into the auction house after order was restored. In his eyes, as long as he was not involved, everything that happened just now had nothing to do with him.

He is neither a savior, nor a creator, nor is he an enemy of some god. He is not interested in flattering the Celestial Dragons, nor is he interested in redeeming those slaves who have ended up miserable.

After sitting down, Murphy quietly waited for the auction to start.

The whole scene was very frenzied, and most of the people sitting there were nobles or rich people, and they were very much looking forward to this kind of big auction that only happens once a month.

The auction soon started with the host's voice, and after a prologue, he went straight to the topic.

"First of all, there is the No. 50 product, a strong man known for his brute force. Look at this strong body with strong muscles. It can be used for physical labor, as a horse, and as a sandbag. It has a wide range of uses, as long as you want it. All methods can be implemented on him, and the starting price starts at [-] Baileys. If you are interested in buying, please raise your bidding cards!"

The host is very good at mobilizing the atmosphere, and in a few words, he made an ordinary pirate like a rare treasure.

"55 Baileys!" The host pointed to the venue, where a woman in the image of a lady was holding up a bidding card.

"Okay, here's another bidder for 58 Baileys! What a good eye, this noble lord seems to need a coolie, such a good slave must not be let go!"

"60 Baileys!" The bidder who still looks like a lady is holding up his placard.

Everyone knew that good things were coming later. The first auction item was sold for 60 yuan with only a few bids.

Murphy had no interest in these things, he just sat leisurely in his seat and watched slaves being bought on the field.

The slave auction was interspersed with item auctions, and the whole process took a long time. Murphy, who had no interest in slaves, was very impatient during the slave auction.Similarly, like most nobles and Celestial Dragons, it is also very unpleasant when auctioning items.

In this way, after Doflamingo intervened in the auction of the Chambord Islands, it is very reasonable to separate the slave auction separately. At least it is more professional and can save everyone's time.

"The next item, one of the fifty good knives of Liang Kuai Knife, with Hongxue Zuo characters, this famous short knife is recognized as cutting everything. Take a closer look at the meticulous painting on the knife, and the many gorgeous decorations inlaid with gems. The blade trembles. the cold light..."

"That's enough, don't need to introduce so much, just quote directly, and hurry up for the rest of the things. What about the mermaid, I'm already impatient." A sudden voice directly interrupted the host's introduction, and everyone watched Go, St. Charmarco was looking impatiently at the stage.

The host wiped his sweat and replied, "Okay, I'll follow your orders."

He pointed to Hongxue's left text and said: "The auction starts at 200 million Baileys. Those who are interested in buying, raise your bidding cards!"

There was a silence, no one answered, most people were afraid to be interested, few people were interested but resisted the urge to raise placards, as if the offer was disrespectful to the Tianlong people.

"201 million Baileys!" The host pointed to the audience, and it was Murphy who raised the bidding card in his hand.

Murphy didn't quite understand the sneakiness in these people's hearts. He wanted to wait and see, but no one competed, so he directly bid.

"201 million Baileys! Has anyone raised the price! 201 million for the first time!"

Everyone looked at Tianlongren, only to see that he just frowned, looking more like impatient than because someone was bidding at this time.

However, no one continued to bid.

After all, this kind of life-threatening behavior, even if it is only a possibility, should be avoided.

"201 million second time!"

"The third time for 201 million! It's a deal. Congratulations to this gentleman for getting Hongxue's left text at a very low price. He is really a lucky guy."

St. Charmarco understood that this person had inadvertently borrowed his advantage, and the other timid interested parties did not bid, which made this person cheaper for nothing. He became a little interested, and kept staring at the stage. His eyes moved slightly, looking at The lucky one.

I saw this person's mouth slightly opened, his face was full of excitement, as if he had taken advantage of it, he immediately felt disdainful, and blurted out: "You bumpkin."

"What a country bumpkin, isn't it just a knife?"

"Haha, Lord Charmarco is right in his words, this person has definitely never seen the market before!"

Following Tianlongren's words, the audience also booed. The few people who wanted to bid but failed to make a bid just now felt a little regretful, but at this moment they seemed to feel very honored, and looked at Murphy with their chests out.

On the contrary, Itilia Gong muttered when looking at Murphy: "This country bumpkin seems quite handsome."

But there was no more to say after she finished speaking, and her attention was obviously still on the auction.

At this time, Murphy's face had returned to calm. In fact, he didn't notice what happened just now. He didn't even know that Hongxue's left text belonged to him.

At this moment, although his face was calm, his heart was extremely excited.

He stared closely at the screen transmitted to him by the system.

The long-awaited but unexpected.

Roger, there it is.
