Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Daxia Imperial Auction Xingyun County Branch" is the full name of the Xingyun County Auction House.

    On the 1st, 11th, and 21st of every month, the Xingyun County Auction House will hold an auction. This rule has been in place since the auction house was established and continues to this day.  But this time, the Xingyun County Auction House's auction was a bit special, because they welcomed a distinguished guest - the Grand Marshal of the Great Xia Imperial Court, Du Qianfan.

    When Du Qianfan came to Xingyun County, his job was to inspect the border defense.  As a border fortress located at the junction of Daxia, Dameng and Xiliang, Xingyun County still plays a very important role in the military. Du Qianfan, as the supreme commander of the three armies, this time is just a routine inspection.

    He will stay in Xingyun County for a total of ten days, and the inspection work is not heavy, so in his free time, local officials, namely Ren Canghu and others, arranged many activities.  Today's activity is to participate in this auction.

    Early in the morning, Ren Xiaoyao left the Ren Mansion. Due to the arrival of Du Qianfan, the whole Ren Mansion was busy and no one noticed him at all.

    Since seeing the white jade double-headed lotus, Ren Xiaoyao has been extremely eager to get it, and after hearing that Ren Canghu was going to auction it, Ren Xiaoyao was even more determined to get it.  Of course, he already had a method in mind to obtain the White Jade Double-Headed Lotus, and the first step in implementing this method was to participate in the auction.

    After leaving the house, Ren Xiaoyao did not go directly to the auction house. Instead, he took a short detour and went to Tsangfang City.  His only purpose was to spend one star coin to buy a disguise mask.  This kind of disguise mask is not complicated, and its effect is just to cover up and change the appearance, but it will not change the breath at all.  But for Wu Jixing, who doesn't have many masters, such an outfit is enough to hide his identity.

    The experience in his previous life has created Ren Xiaoyao's cautious habit.

    In situations like auctions, especially when you have some special purpose, the best thing to do is to hide your identity.  In this way, no matter what you do, as long as you take off the mask when there is no one around, everything will be unnoticed.

    We went straight to the outside of the auction house. In addition to two tall staff members, there was also a small group of soldiers guarding the door.  This group of soldiers is the elite of the Ren family's army. Today, Marshal Du Qianfan is here, so Xingyun County will naturally send its best soldiers to stand guard.

    Just when Ren Xiaoyao was hesitant to go in immediately, a tall, graceful woman walked out of the auction house with a smile, walked directly to Ren Xiaoyao, and said, "Hello, do you need any help?"

    Ren Xiaoyao could tell that this woman should be a service staff member of the auction.  Even the service staff responsible for the reception are all beauties of this caliber, which shows the importance of this auction.

    At this moment, Ren Xiaoyao was wearing his gray mask, covering the area above his nose, so the other party could not see his age.  He deliberately changed his tone and said: "I want to participate in this auction, please take me to get a membership card."

    "Okay, sir, please come with me." The beauty smiled sweetly, opened her long legs and led the way, and Ren Xiaoyao quickly followed.

    Ren Xiaoyao has long understood the rules of the auction house.  There are certain requirements for entering the auction house. This requirement is naturally that the participants must have a distinguished identity, and the best proof of identity is money.  One thousand star coins is not too much, but for ordinary people, it is a number that can only be looked up to.

    Ren Xiaoyao¡¯s monthly money is not much, only two hundred star coins a month.  However, he has been frugal since he was a child, so it is not difficult to come up with a thousand star coins.

    This thousand star coins were not given directly to the auction house, it was just a certificate of identity.  As long as you can come up with this money, you can apply for a membership card. The fee for applying for the card is only ten star coins.  After getting the membership card, you can go in and out freely with the card. As for the remaining 990 star coins, it is only temporarily mortgaged in the auction house, and the ownership still belongs to you.

    After applying for the membership card, the beautiful woman handed the card to Ren Xiaoyao with both hands, and then took him to the seating area.

    Similar to the auction houses in other places in the Imperial Court, the seats in the Xingyun County Auction House are also divided into three parts - general area, VIP area, and private rooms.

    As the name suggests, the general area is the most popular seat. As long as you can get a thousand star coins as a guarantee, you can sit in the general area.  There is no doubt that Ren Xiaoyao is sitting in this area.

    The VIP area is where richer people sit.  The entry standard for the VIP area is a deposit of 50,000 star coins!  This amount is enough to cover the annual income of a small family.  The VIP area is located further forward, and has a separate table and service staff. At the same time, you can enjoy drinks presented by the auction house, and you can bid while drinking tea.

    As for the box, it¡¯s all? Located on the second floor, it is a separate small area.

    In the private room, there are dedicated services provided by beauties with good looks and excellent attitudes, and there are even various food and entertainment facilities.  If you want to sit in the box, you must not only have enough money, but also have high status and power.

    Each box is built with a special kind of spar. This kind of spar is not only crystal clear and very luxurious, but also has a characteristic: it can be seen very clearly from the inside out, but nothing can be seen from the outside in.  This also ensures that the people in the box can not be seen, without affecting the ability to clearly see the auction items below.

    At this moment, sitting in the first box is naturally the protagonist of this auction - Du Qianfan. In the second box are the county princes Ren Canghu and Ren Cangyue and others. The third box belongs to Bai Bai.  The order of the house is also completely based on the dignity of the distinguished guests.

    Ren Xiaoyao sat on his seat. The beautiful woman who led the way did not go far, but was greeting other guests nearby.  In the general area, there are many beautiful service staff like her, and together they serve hundreds of ordinary customers.  During the auction later, they will also be responsible for recording the guest numbers, bid prices, etc.

    ¡­¡­

    Soon, the auction officially began.

    A very sweet-looking woman wearing a white floor-length skirt gracefully stepped onto the central booth.  She looked forward and smiled, with light eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes. She stretched out her jade hand in a rather elegant manner and grabbed the small auction hammer.

    The beauty of this woman and the lightness and gracefulness of her walk immediately attracted the attention of many guests.

    "Clang."

    With a gentle knock, the entire auction house suddenly became quiet for a while.  The beauty in white held the auction hammer in her hand and smiled sweetly at the audience, naturally and appropriately.

    "Dear distinguished guests, I am the first lot in this auction. Is anyone interested?"

    As soon as the beauty in white opened her mouth, the whole audience was shocked.  Everyone is wondering: Did they hear wrongly?

    Such a stunning beauty would be the first auction item?  Many people are eager to bid

    But the next moment, the beautiful woman in white smiled and said: "Hehe, I'm just kidding everyone. I am Su Su, the host of this auction. Please support me and bid enthusiastically! Without further ado,  Today¡¯s auction is definitely exciting, and I¡¯d like to invite today¡¯s real first auction item¡ªa low-level earth-level weapon, the Aoki Sword.¡±

    With the explanation in Su Su¡¯s soft voice, everyone finally realized her joke, and a burst of relieved laughter burst out from the audience.  The atmosphere of the auction also became relaxed and pleasant.

    At this moment, two beauties wearing red cheongsam walked onto the auction stage side by side, holding a long sword in their hands.
