Pirate: Give me your power
Chapter 108 Rare Wood Auction
Rosyth was almost tearful.
After wiping away the tears from his face, the fat general manager bowed slightly and respectfully said: "Master Bai Ya, the precious wood auction will be held for two days, no, it will be held tomorrow morning. This is the admission ticket, you Take it."
While speaking, Rosyth took out four exquisite admission tickets with the emblem of Kukunoer Shipbuilding Company printed on it from the inner lining.
Logan took it with a smile and handed it to Becky.
The captain of the pirate team waited patiently for Logan to finish talking, and then said: "Mr. Rosyth, the boss and Lord White Fang have traded a warship, which is parked at the West Port."
"Also, please prepare 5000 million Baileys in cash for Lord White Fang!"
"Okay, my lords, please go to my office and wait for a while. I'll have the money ready right away."
Rosyth was slightly surprised for a moment, but immediately bent over and turned sideways, slightly raising her hand, like a welcoming lady in front of a hotel.
The captain of the pirate squad did not follow, and it was his task to bring Logan and others to Rosyth. Now that the task has been completed, he will continue to go back to patrol.
Rosyth's general manager's office is luxurious and looks like a big company.
"My lord, this is 5000 million Baileys, please order."
Rosyth personally brought two low-key black leather boxes to Logan, and then opened them, revealing the neatly stacked large bills inside.
"No, I believe in the integrity of big companies."
Logan put down the coffee in his hand, waved his hands, and closed the two boxes.
Becky then raised her hand Yun Yong, and swallowed the two boxes into her own storage room.
As she developed Yunyun Fruit more and more deeply, the area of the storage room gradually expanded, and now it is not a problem to fit a warship.
Rosyth nodded with a smile all over his face, then looked outside at the sinking Golden Crow, and said, "It's getting late, how about I invite you adults to have a light meal?"
"Eat! Good!"
Mikoou was rolling on the big warm sofa, but he jumped up happily when he heard this sentence.
Logan and the others got up: "That's troublesome."
"No trouble, no trouble!" Rosyth shook his head again and again, and opened the door, "It's just a free normal canteen meal."
Logan smiled, just thinking it was a normal business courtesy.
However a few minutes later.
Logan looked at the deserted restaurant door in front of him, feeling a little dazed.
Now is not the time to eat, it is normal that there are few people.
But...is it really a cafeteria?
Maybe there is a special advanced small stove inside.
In any case, Logan did not believe that a general manager as big as Rosyth would take him to the cafeteria.
Logan didn't dislike dining in the cafeteria, and even missed it a little.
But if a big boss does this...doesn't he lose his share?
However, Logan was destined to be disappointed.
Rosyth led them straight up to the top floor, and walked to a slightly different area with ease.
Hmm... This is slightly different because there are some simple patterns on the oily table surface.
Rosyth hurriedly opened the bench like a servant to invite Logan and the others to sit down, and then went to the restaurant window to order food.
The whole set of movements flows like clouds and water without any sluggishness. You can tell at a glance that you have been doing this all year round.
Logan scratched his scalp, his confusion deepened.
Based on his knowledge, he could see the entire restaurant building, and Logan didn't find any special private rooms.
Even, there is no other place to eat in the entire Kuku Nuoer company.
It's really close to the people!
In this world that emphasizes privilege, the high-level executives of Kukunoer can achieve such a gesture. Logan really doesn't know whether to pity them or admire them.
However, if Kukunoer's executives dare to do this, then the food in this restaurant must be delicious.
Thinking of this, Logan was already looking forward to it.
Without making them wait any longer, Rosyth and the restaurant staff gave a few simple instructions and then walked back.
At the same time, he matched two large plates in his hand.
"It's been a long wait, the main meal will be ready soon."
Rosyth put two large plates on the table, pointed to the one on the left and said, "This is sweet fudge with blue sky and white clouds."
Pointing to the right side, he said, "This is Duo Duo Zi Twist."
After the introductions, Rosyth sat down and said with a little reservedness and pride, "These two candies are special products of our Kukunoer. They have a long history and are deeply loved. Please taste them!"
specialty?
The faces of Logan and the others suddenly showed joy, and then reached out to take a piece of fudge in the color of blue sky and white clouds in tacit understanding.
amount……
fade.
Logan looked at the unknown blue color stained on his fingers, and felt a bad premonition in his heart.
But after a moment of hesitation, he still put the fudge in his mouth.
!!!
Logan's face froze for an instant, and it became almost visible to the naked eye!
vomit! ! !
What the hell is sugar? !
Let alone the fact that there is a layer of dry and hard lenses on the outside of the gummy.
What's the matter with the taste like chewing sandbags?
What's with this smell like pesticide?
How is this sweet so sweet? !
Are you sure it's not chemicals? ! !
Logan felt his tongue was about to explode.
But when he saw Rosyth's expectant face, he still suppressed his facial expression with great perseverance, and then swallowed the devil fruit-like delicious thing on his tongue!
Next to her, Becky with a numb expression saw Logan swallowing, the corners of her mouth twitched, her eyes closed, and her throat rolled.
but--
"Oh! It's so unpalatable!!"
Mi Keou's small face wrinkled violently, he tilted his head and opened his mouth to spit out candy, and pulled his little tongue vigorously.
Logan was dumbfounded.
To actually make a child swear, this candy is really sinful!
Next to Mikoou, Ali was even more exaggerated.
He stood up suddenly, stepped on the bench, opened his mouth wide, and bursts of flames gushed out, purifying his mouth!
Rosyth trembled from Ali's sudden anger and turned pale.
After spraying the fire, Ali wiped his mouth and sat down. Immediately, he gave Logan and Becky two thumbs up, and said with sincere admiration: "Ruthless!"
Then, Ali looked at Rosyth with a very unfriendly expression: "Are you deliberately using these things to disgust us?!"
Rosyth stood up with a burning buttock, his face was twitching, watching his complexion turn from white to blue and then to purple.
"You, what are you talking about?"
boom!
Ali threw the big plate of fudge directly in front of Rosyth, and the table trembled three times.
"Eat them all, I will believe you!"
Rosyth swallowed his saliva, his eyelids trembling: "This, so many...will kill people."
"Oh!" Ali jumped up, sneered, stared at Rosyth with cold eyes, and said, "Captain, did you hear, this thing can kill people!"
"No no no no no!!!"
Rosyth screamed in fright, and hurriedly defended: "I didn't mean that! The blue sky and white cloud sweet fudge is very high in calories, and ordinary people usually only eat two, and if they eat more than five, the blood will accelerate and the whole body will become hot. It is a treasure for us to fill our stomachs and keep warm!"
"Lord Bai Fang, I really have no malicious intentions!"
Rosyth looked at Logan with an anxious look on his face.
"Well……"
Logan pondered the candy he ate just now with a solemn expression.
Although it is unpalatable and unpalatable, it is not poisonous, and it is really high in calories.
It doesn't matter to Logan, but it is indeed very hungry to ordinary people.
Thinking of this, Logan patted his cheek, forced a smile, let Ali and Rosyth sit down at ease, and then said: "Ali, calm down, this sugar is not poisonous, it's just that we are not used to it."
Rosyth seemed to have grasped at straws, and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes! Yes! It's because I didn't entertain well, and I didn't ask the adults about their taste preferences in advance!"
At this time, the waiter was serving the meal. Seeing this scene, he was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly put down the food, and ran away with his head down.
Logan coughed and said, "Mr. Rosyth, we are just guests, you don't have to be so restrained. Sit down!"
Ali snorted and sat down, picking up his chopsticks.
Rosyth looked at Ali in fear, and sat on half of his buttocks tremblingly, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles.
"Haha, eat and eat!"
Logan laughed to ease the atmosphere, and then took a mouthful of white rice into his mouth.
Ali picked up a piece of stew and put it in his mouth, and Betsy and Mikoo also buried their heads in eating.
Only Rosyth, he looked around, carefully took a piece of blue sky and white cloud sweet candy and a piece of Dotos twist candy from the two plates, and stuffed them into his mouth when Logan and the others were not paying attention.
This is a habit he has developed for many years. He must eat two pieces of candy before eating, otherwise he will not be able to eat.
This time it was also because of this habit that I ordered two plates of candy. Of course, it also meant to give Logan and others a taste.
But he didn't expect to kill him, this habit almost killed him.
Ugh……
How could someone think such a delicious thing is poison?
With two pieces of candy in his mouth, Rosyth naturally had an expression of enjoyment on his face, even temporarily forgetting the fear in his heart.
Rosyth didn't expect that this little action of his would fall into Logan's eyes.
The corners of Logan's eyes twitched slightly.
Is taste so different from person to person?
Are we a species?
Or is it that two pieces of candy will have a wonderful chemical reaction when put together?
Logan shook his head, killing the dangerous thought from his mind.
Even if he jumped down from here, there was absolutely no way he would touch that faded jellybean!
Logan picked up the rice, took a bite of the dish, and chewed it.
To be honest, the food was somewhat beyond Logan's imagination.
Instead of exceeding the upper limit, it broke through the lower limit.
Ah, unpalatable!
Although it is a delicacy compared to the sugar before the meal, compared with the meal that Betsy cooks, this is simply dirt!
Fortunately, they were able to eat it now with the delicious taste of sugar as a comparison.
Ten minutes later, Logan reluctantly swallowed the last piece of meat, pushed the bowl happily, and leaned back.
"Ah...Mr. Rosyth, why doesn't a company as big as yours hire a better cook?"
Logan covered his mouth and picked his teeth, and couldn't help asking.
"This, this, this"
Rosyth sat up straight as soon as Logan put down the bowl and chopsticks, but at this moment he was a little embarrassed to hear the question.
But seeing Ali, the three also cast curious eyes.
Rosace sighed and smiled bitterly: "It turns out that the Kukunoor Company was not like this before. It was the fierce wolf boss who said that shipbuilding is shipbuilding and no mixing of anything is allowed." So he drove away the former cook. , built this large canteen, ahem... all the cooks are part-time workers."
"Uh... let the workers cook, and let the employees eat this kind of food, he is not afraid that you will all run away!"
Mi Keou pounded his chopsticks in disgust and stirred the white rice in the bowl.
Becky scowled when she saw this, and reprimanded: "Children are not allowed to be picky eaters!"
Mi Keou frowned, pinched his nose and pulled the rice into his mouth.
Rosyth was startled, looked at the food left in the bowl, thought for a while, and picked up chopsticks to eat.
While eating, he sighed meaningfully: "Without entertainment facilities, the efficiency of shipbuilding is much higher in a short period of time!"
Logan stared at the words, thoughtful.
Soon, dinner is over.
Rosyth booked a room for the Logan Pirates at the Kukunoel Shipbuilding Company Headquarters Hotel and told them the room number.
After settling Logan and the others, Rosyth immediately returned to the office to summon his subordinates, issued an order, and acted vigorously: "Immediately release the news through various channels, and the precious wood auction will be held on time at [-]:[-] tomorrow morning. We will not wait when it is overdue!"
"General manager, is the time too hasty? Isn't our original plan two days later? Why is it so much earlier?"
Rosyth's face was serious, and he said the same thing, without any room for discount: "Don't ask, go and do it! Hurry up!"
A new department manager, however, had the attitude of breaking the casserole and asking the end. He took a step forward, neither humble nor overbearing: "General manager, if you don't have a reasonable explanation, you may cause dissatisfaction among customers, and it will damage our company's reputation."
"dissatisfied?"
Rosyth frowned, stared at him for a few seconds, and said word by word: "Let them talk to White Fang!"
boom!
The casserole is leaking!
The young department manager was taken aback for a moment, with a look of astonishment on his face.
He knew that White Fang had come to the island, but he didn't know that he had come for the auction.
I... almost blocked White Fang's path?
The department manager felt a chill down his spine and looked panic-stricken.
A look of disappointment flashed in Rosyth's eyes, and he waved his hand while sitting behind the desk, and said in a solemn voice, "Hurry up and release the news, and besides, you have to notify those big customers yourself."
"If someone wants to make trouble, he can give a little bit of news about White Fang's landing on the island."
"Yes!"
Everyone agreed and walked out quickly.
A person who was usually close to the young manager glanced at him, stretched out his hand and dragged him out together, who was in a daze.
At nine o'clock that night, a large number of notices and phone calls flew out of the Kukunoer headquarters.
"What? An auction at eight o'clock tomorrow? You bastard! Are you kidding me!"
"I set off a week earlier for Baoshu Adam, and now there is at least one more day's voyage!"
"You are defrauding consumers! The store is bullying customers! I'm going to sue you!"
"Where is Rosyth, let Rosyth get out and talk!"
As soon as the news was sent out, such angry denunciation growls kept ringing from the phone bug, and the operators at the Kukunoer headquarters who heard it were at a loss, with bitter expressions on their faces.
The manager of the public relations department pushed open the door and walked in, striding over a dozen phone bugs, with a sad expression, choked up and said: "Today, the big pirate 'White Fang' broke into Kuku Nuoer, he fell in love with Baoshu Adam!"
"Actually, if our general manager hadn't fought hard for reason and desperately protected each other, all of you would not even be qualified to compete for Baoshu Adam this time!"
As he said that, the public relations manager's face became very guilty, and he bowed deeply: "Although it is for the sake of tens of thousands of lives on the island... But no matter what, we broke the contract first. I am really sorry everyone!"
The phone bugs were all breathing together.
It took a long time before someone responded: "White Fang...even, even White Fang can't be so domineering..."
"Hey! If it's him, who would dare to snatch it from him? I'm really happy for nothing!"
"Mr. Rosyth has worked hard. He is not injured?"
The PR manager straightened up, tears streaming down his face: "The general manager asked me to say sorry to you all."
"Ugh……"
There was a moan and a sigh.
"That's it, the next time you have Baoshu Adam, you must greet me in advance."
Kacha!
As one person ends the call, more and more people hang up with them.
They all came here specially for Baoshu Adam. Seeing that there was no game at this time, they naturally lost their interest and prepared to return.
Of course, there were also those who could arrive before the auction, but they all chose to return.
After all, compared with the precious tree Adam, life is more important.
Pirates, the reputation among merchants is too bad!
After all the dozens of phone bugs closed their eyes, the public relations manager smiled triumphantly, then took out a handkerchief to wipe away his tears and nose, and walked out the door.
Behind him, he left a look of admiration.
This night, after all, was a different night.
In the early morning of the next day, after the four of Logan had breakfast in the hotel, they greeted Rosyth, rejected the latter's request to accompany him, and went to the Jane Wood Auction alone.
The venue for the auction was an open timber area at another port on the West Bank.
When Logan and the others arrived, a large number of people had already gathered here, most of them were merchant nobles from all over the New World, and some pirates were also mixed in.
In fact, Kuku Nuoer Shipbuilding Company released the news that it had acquired the treasure tree Adam and would hold an auction thirteen days ago.
Therefore, most of the interested people rushed over as soon as they got the news, and waited for the auction early.
Those who failed to come, apart from the really long distance, are those who are used to pressing down and appearing last.
Now it's all right, it's early.
Surprise, not unexpected?
Logan didn't know about these things. Rosyth unilaterally decided to change the auction time. Logan thought that the auction would be held normally.
"White Fang..."
"It's White Fang!"
As soon as Logan and the others appeared, the noisy market-like auction venue instantly fell silent.
Although it's not so audible, people's voices are indeed a lot more cautious unconsciously.
Logan ignored them and searched for the target on his own.
Although the highlight of the auction is Treasure Tree Adam, how could it be possible to prepare only one item for an auction.
There are a lot of rare woods piled up on the field, which makes Logan a little dazzled.
But the king is the king!
Among a large number of rare woods, only a giant tree about 40 meters in height is the most conspicuous, attracting the attention of the audience with its incomparable crushing posture.
Treasure tree Adam!
Regardless of hardness or flexibility, it is far superior to all the wood present, even better than steel!
"This log is so beautiful, will it become our boat?"
Mikoo stared at Baoshu Adam's eyes without blinking.
I'm really interested in everything.
Logan chuckled and said, "Yes!"
With that said, Logan looked away, and sat down at an edge.
Soon, the clock struck eight o'clock.
Jane wood auction started.
The person in charge of the auction wore a suit and stepped onto the large round platform in the middle, and first introduced a seven or eight meter long log that flowed with a faint blue light like a lake.
It was a section of the lake blue sandalwood trunk, whether it was used to make furniture or build houses, it was a very luxurious material.
Logan was not interested in this, and calmly listened to the bidding prices of some nobles.
"800 million peles once...800 million peles twice..."
"make a deal!"
The man in suit who was in charge of the chair dropped the hammer with a smile on his face, and soon began to introduce the second rare wood.
Three hours passed in a blink of an eye, and rare boat logs occasionally appeared during the period, which attracted a burst of cheers.
But Logan only glanced at it twice before withdrawing his gaze uninterestedly.
Compared with the precious tree Adam, the quality of these woods is still a bit worse.
As for Betsy and Ali, they didn't dare to be interested in this pile of wood, they leaned lazily on the white clouds, and even yawned.
But Mikoou, this guy showed amazing curiosity, every time a piece of wood was auctioned, he would scream in surprise.
Near noon, the wood on the field was traded out one by one, and the field gradually became empty, and there was no unsold situation.
at last!
It was the turn to place it horizontally at the rear, on the black and red wood that exudes an ancient and long-lasting atmosphere.
"ladies and gentlemen!"
The man in the suit hosted the auction for several hours without any fatigue. Now that it was the most important moment of this auction, he became even more excited.
He waved his arms to drive the atmosphere in the arena, waved his finger to the giant tree, and said excitedly:
"There is an island that has experienced countless wars in the legend. Although the island is fighting with swords and guns, the flames are raging, the creatures are turned into dry bones, and the city is reduced to ruins. However, there is always a towering giant tree sitting and watching the vicissitudes of life, standing tall and firm!"
"There are only a few trees like this in the whole world, and the strongest among them is - the precious tree Adam!!!"
"That's right!! The one placed here, the protagonist of this auction, is it - the branch of the precious tree Adam!!!"
"The total length is 43 meters, the diameter is 21 meters, and the starting price is... [-] million Baileys!"
The host was hoarse and extremely excited, as if he was holding a large-scale concert.
However, in stark contrast to him, the field was quiet.
Many people looked at each other in blank dismay, and gradually, there were slight discussions.
The host was not at all surprised by this result.
But even so, he was a little embarrassed.
The reason why he yelled so hard just now was to try to stir up the atmosphere, to see if there are any brainless guys in the field who yelled twice and raised the price a little.
But obviously, these are life-saving people on the field, even those pirates who call themselves desperadoes are no exception.
The host coughed insignificantly, and looked towards the corner of the venue without any trace.
My lord, hurry up and bid, end this damn embarrassing scene!
However, what surprised the host was that the old God Logan was there, and he didn't intend to make an offer first.
After wiping away the tears from his face, the fat general manager bowed slightly and respectfully said: "Master Bai Ya, the precious wood auction will be held for two days, no, it will be held tomorrow morning. This is the admission ticket, you Take it."
While speaking, Rosyth took out four exquisite admission tickets with the emblem of Kukunoer Shipbuilding Company printed on it from the inner lining.

It was the fierce wolf boss who said that shipbuilding is shipbuilding and no mixing of anything is allowed." So he drove away the former cook. , built this large canteen, ahem... all the cooks are part-time workers."
"Uh... let the workers cook, and let the employees eat this kind of food, he is not afraid that you will all run away!"
Mi Keou pounded his chopsticks in disgust and stirred the white rice in the bowl.
Becky scowled when she saw this, and reprimanded: "Children are not allowed to be picky eaters!"
Mi Keou frowned, pinched his nose and pulled the rice into his mouth.
Rosyth was startled, looked at the food left in the bowl, thought for a while, and picked up chopsticks to eat.
While eating, he sighed meaningfully: "Without entertainment facilities, the efficiency of shipbuilding is much higher in a short period of time!"
Logan stared at the words, thoughtful.
Soon, dinner is over.
Rosyth booked a room for the Logan Pirates at the Kukunoel Shipbuilding Company Headquarters Hotel and told them the room number.
After settling Logan and the others, Rosyth immediately returned to the office to summon his subordinates, issued an order, and acted vigorously: "Immediately release the news through various channels, and the precious wood auction will be held on time at [-]:[-] tomorrow morning. We will not wait when it is overdue!"
"General manager, is the time too hasty? Isn't our original plan two days later? Why is it so much earlier?"
Rosyth's face was serious, and he said the same thing, without any room for discount: "Don't ask, go and do it! Hurry up!"
A new department manager, however, had the attitude of breaking the casserole and asking the end. He took a step forward, neither humble nor overbearing: "General manager, if you don't have a reasonable explanation, you may cause dissatisfaction among customers, and it will damage our company's reputation."
"dissatisfied?"
Rosyth frowned, stared at him for a few seconds, and said word by word: "Let them talk to White Fang!"
boom!
The casserole is leaking!
The young department manager was taken aback for a moment, with a look of astonishment on his face.
He knew that White Fang had come to the island, but he didn't know that he had come for the auction.
I... almost blocked White Fang's path?
The department manager felt a chill down his spine and looked panic-stricken.
A look of disappointment flashed in Rosyth's eyes, and he waved his hand while sitting behind the desk, and said in a solemn voice, "Hurry up and release the news, and besides, you have to notify those big customers yourself."
"If someone wants to make trouble, he can give a little bit of news about White Fang's landing on the island."
"Yes!"
Everyone agreed and walked out quickly.
A person who was usually close to the young manager glanced at him, stretched out his hand and dragged him out together, who was in a daze.
At nine o'clock that night, a large number of notices and phone calls flew out of the Kukunoer headquarters.
"What? An auction at eight o'clock tomorrow? You bastard! Are you kidding me!"
"I set off a week earlier for Baoshu Adam, and now there is at least one more day's voyage!"
"You are defrauding consumers! The store is bullying customers! I'm going to sue you!"
"Where is Rosyth, let Rosyth get out and talk!"
As soon as the news was sent out, such angry denunciation growls kept ringing from the phone bug, and the operators at the Kukunoer headquarters who heard it were at a loss, with bitter expressions on their faces.
The manager of the public relations department pushed open the door and walked in, striding over a dozen phone bugs, with a sad expression, choked up and said: "Today, the big pirate 'White Fang' broke into Kuku Nuoer, he fell in love with Baoshu Adam!"
"Actually, if our general manager hadn't fought hard for reason and desperately protected each other, all of you would not even be qualified to compete for Baoshu Adam this time!"
As he said that, the public relations manager's face became very guilty, and he bowed deeply: "Although it is for the sake of tens of thousands of lives on the island... But no matter what, we broke the contract first. I am really sorry everyone!"
The phone bugs were all breathing together.
It took a long time before someone responded: "White Fang...even, even White Fang can't be so domineering..."
"Hey! If it's him, who would dare to snatch it from him? I'm really happy for nothing!"
"Mr. Rosyth has worked hard. He is not injured?"
The PR manager straightened up, tears streaming down his face: "The general manager asked me to say sorry to you all."
"Ugh……"
There was a moan and a sigh.
"That's it, the next time you have Baoshu Adam, you must greet me in advance."
Kacha!
As one person ends the call, more and more people hang up with them.
They all came here specially for Baoshu Adam. Seeing that there was no game at this time, they naturally lost their interest and prepared to return.
Of course, there were also those who could arrive before the auction, but they all chose to return.
After all, compared with the precious tree Adam, life is more important.
Pirates, the reputation among merchants is too bad!
After all the dozens of phone bugs closed their eyes, the public relations manager smiled triumphantly, then took out a handkerchief to wipe away his tears and nose, and walked out the door.
Behind him, he left a look of admiration.
This night, after all, was a different night.
In the early morning of the next day, after the four of Logan had breakfast in the hotel, they greeted Rosyth, rejected the latter's request to accompany him, and went to the Jane Wood Auction alone.
The venue for the auction was an open timber area at another port on the West Bank.
When Logan and the others arrived, a large number of people had already gathered here, most of them were merchant nobles from all over the New World, and some pirates were also mixed in.
In fact, Kuku Nuoer Shipbuilding Company released the news that it had acquired the treasure tree Adam and would hold an auction thirteen days ago.
Therefore, most of the interested people rushed over as soon as they got the news, and waited for the auction early.
Those who failed to come, apart from the really long distance, are those who are used to pressing down and appearing last.
Now it's all right, it's early.
Surprise, not unexpected?
Logan didn't know about these things. Rosyth unilaterally decided to change the auction time. Logan thought that the auction would be held normally.
"White Fang..."
"It's White Fang!"
As soon as Logan and the others appeared, the noisy market-like auction venue instantly fell silent.
Although it's not so audible, people's voices are indeed a lot more cautious unconsciously.
Logan ignored them and searched for the target on his own.
Although the highlight of the auction is Treasure Tree Adam, how could it be possible to prepare only one item for an auction.
There are a lot of rare woods piled up on the field, which makes Logan a little dazzled.
But the king is the king!
Among a large number of rare woods, only a giant tree about 40 meters in height is the most conspicuous, attracting the attention of the audience with its incomparable crushing posture.
Treasure tree Adam!
Regardless of hardness or flexibility, it is far superior to all the wood present, even better than steel!
"This log is so beautiful, will it become our boat?"
Mikoo stared at Baoshu Adam's eyes without blinking.
I'm really interested in everything.
Logan chuckled and said, "Yes!"
With that said, Logan looked away, and sat down at an edge.
Soon, the clock struck eight o'clock.
Jane wood auction started.
The person in charge of the auction wore a suit and stepped onto the large round platform in the middle, and first introduced a seven or eight meter long log that flowed with a faint blue light like a lake.
It was a section of the lake blue sandalwood trunk, whether it was used to make furniture or build houses, it was a very luxurious material.
Logan was not interested in this, and calmly listened to the bidding prices of some nobles.
"800 million peles once...800 million peles twice..."
"make a deal!"
The man in suit who was in charge of the chair dropped the hammer with a smile on his face, and soon began to introduce the second rare wood.
Three hours passed in a blink of an eye, and rare boat logs occasionally appeared during the period, which attracted a burst of cheers.
But Logan only glanced at it twice before withdrawing his gaze uninterestedly.
Compared with the precious tree Adam, the quality of these woods is still a bit worse.
As for Betsy and Ali, they didn't dare to be interested in this pile of wood, they leaned lazily on the white clouds, and even yawned.
But Mikoou, this guy showed amazing curiosity, every time a piece of wood was auctioned, he would scream in surprise.
Near noon, the wood on the field was traded out one by one, and the field gradually became empty, and there was no unsold situation.
at last!
It was the turn to place it horizontally at the rear, on the black and red wood that exudes an ancient and long-lasting atmosphere.
"ladies and gentlemen!"
The man in the suit hosted the auction for several hours without any fatigue. Now that it was the most important moment of this auction, he became even more excited.
He waved his arms to drive the atmosphere in the arena, waved his finger to the giant tree, and said excitedly:
"There is an island that has experienced countless wars in the legend. Although the island is fighting with swords and guns, the flames are raging, the creatures are turned into dry bones, and the city is reduced to ruins. However, there is always a towering giant tree sitting and watching the vicissitudes of life, standing tall and firm!"
"There are only a few trees like this in the whole world, and the strongest among them is - the precious tree Adam!!!"
"That's right!! The one placed here, the protagonist of this auction, is it - the branch of the precious tree Adam!!!"
"The total length is 43 meters, the diameter is 21 meters, and the starting price is... [-] million Baileys!"
The host was hoarse and extremely excited, as if he was holding a large-scale concert.
However, in stark contrast to him, the field was quiet.
Many people looked at each other in blank dismay, and gradually, there were slight discussions.
The host was not at all surprised by this result.
But even so, he was a little embarrassed.
The reason why he yelled so hard just now was to try to stir up the atmosphere, to see if there are any brainless guys in the field who yelled twice and raised the price a little.
But obviously, these are life-saving people on the field, even those pirates who call themselves desperadoes are no exception.
The host coughed insignificantly, and looked towards the corner of the venue without any trace.
My lord, hurry up and bid, end this damn embarrassing scene!
However, what surprised the host was that the old God Logan was there, and he didn't intend to make an offer first.
