    Evelin unfurled a flag and hung it from the balcony.  This time, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people.  One or two figures appeared on almost every balcony on the third floor, pointing at the two flags.  On the second floor, many people simply stood up, looked up at the flags and talked in low voices.  The two flags seemed to drop two bombs in this calm atmosphere at once. Before the auction started, a lively show was about to take place.  Although Ai Di didn't understand the specific meaning of the flag, he had almost guessed it at this time. It seemed that the flag was equivalent to a declaration that he was bound to win.  Ai Di went out and opened her ears, and saw a sweaty fat man standing at the door.  This fat man was probably in his twenties, with a fat head and big ears, and a rich face. His mouth was grinning almost to the base of his ears, and his savage smile could easily give people the illusion of being stupid.  But if anyone really thinks he is a fool, he will definitely plot him to death!  Everyone in Lagos knows that this fat man with an unattractive appearance is Winston, a natural business wizard!  Seeing Aidi, Winston was slightly startled, and then said enthusiastically: "You are Miss Lucia's attendant, are you there? I have some important matters to discuss with her!" Before Aidi could answer, Catherine  The voice came out coldly.  "Winston, come in and talk." As soon as Winston heard Catherine's voice, the expression on Winston's fat face was extremely colorful.  He gave a bitter smile and whispered to Ai Di: "So you are the princess's attendant." Winston walked into the suite, and when he saw Catherine, he smiled and said: "I didn't know that the princess is coming here. It's really disappointing to welcome her from afar!  It turns out that Princess Evelin is here too! Oh my god, it¡¯s so beautiful that the three beauties from the capital are gathered in my little tavern! I¡¯ll go to pay my respects later and pay my respects!¡± Catherine didn¡¯t pay any attention to Wen Si!  Suddenly flattering, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you here for that flag?" Winston smiled bitterly and wiped the big beads of sweat on his forehead and said, "Your Highness, how did I know you were in the box. I  I thought it was Miss Lucia who unfolded the flag out of fun. If I knew it was you, I would never get involved in this muddy water!" Winston was shocked and scared.  There are two items in today's auction that were stolen goods bought from Butler Hernan.  In order to avoid trouble, he did not send Catherine an invitation at all.  Who knew that the princess came by herself.  If this is discovered, it will be a big trouble!  But that¡¯s not the most important thing!  Who in Lagos doesn¡¯t know that the competition between the two crown princes is at an intense stage? Look at the situation today.  They are afraid that they will regard this auction as a competitive battlefield!  Catherine's princess arrogance could only be completely restrained in front of Aidi. Facing Winston, the richest man in the kingdom, she said without courtesy: "Winston, you have to think clearly, sometimes you can stay out of things."  Not the best choice!" There were more beads of sweat on Winston's forehead. He wiped the sweat frequently and said, "I remember what the princess said. If there is nothing to do, I will leave first." Catherine nodded slightly.  No more words.  Winston exited the box and waited for the door to close before letting out a sigh of relief.  However, Catherine's words were like a mountain weighing on his heart, making him a little uneasy.  The struggle between the crown princes is extremely cruel. The winner gets everything, but the loser may not even be able to save his life.  Winston knows this very well.  As a businessman, he dared not offend anyone and only hoped to protect himself wisely.  But if you think about it carefully, no one is offended. If you think about it from another angle, it means offending both people!  In the future one of them becomes king and thinks about Winston not helping.  What are your thoughts?  The more Winston thought about it, the more chilled he became. He suddenly realized that he should choose someone to support him as soon as possible.  But, should we choose the princess with a bad reputation or the enigmatic prince?  Winston found that politics is much more complicated than business, and his huge head is not enough." At this moment, in Jeremy's box, the prince was sitting on the sofa with a blank expression, closing his eyes to rest. "A crony walked away.  He came in and reported in a low voice: "Prince, it has been found out that the box belongs to the generalissimo.  However, the Generalissimo did not come. Instead, his granddaughter, Miss Lucia, came.  " "Lucia?  "Jeremy's eyes lit up. He had already coveted this military beauty. But he calmed down immediately: "Why did Lucia hang the flag?  Got it figured out?  " "The one who hangs the flag should not be Lucia, it seems to be Princess Evelin.  "The confidant said. "Evelin!  Why is she here?  "Jeremy's face turned cold, and he saidMy sister doesn't have a good impression.  "She came with Princess Catherine, and it should be the intention of both of them to hang the flag!" "Well, Catherine, are you going to go against me in everything?" Jeremy was furious, "I want to see you.  How can you fight with me?" Seeing Jeremy's angry look, several close friends in the box fell silent.  Jeremy lost his temper for a while and suddenly asked: "How much money have we prepared in total?" The confidant said respectfully: "A total of 500,000 gold coins have been prepared, and we can borrow 500,000 from Winston at any time. The total is 1,100,000.  Ten thousand should be enough!" "Very good! Five hundred thousand is enough. I don't believe that poor Catherine can afford five hundred thousand!" Jeremy sneered, "Since she dares to hang out the flag.  , I will humiliate her so hard in front of so many princes and nobles in the capital that everyone will fight with me!" At this time, a soft light suddenly lit up on the first floor.  At the same time, this is the signal that the auction is about to begin.  Guests on the second floor can directly see the scene on the first floor.  The guests in the private rooms on the third floor walked to the balcony and looked down.  Ai Di also followed the three women to the balcony. As soon as the four of them appeared, they immediately attracted countless gazes.  The three women are all famous beauties in the royal capital, especially Catherine. The crown prince has attracted a lot of attention.  Coupled with the hanging flag, many guests almost forgot the purpose of attending the auction, and instead began to secretly speculate on the outcome of this brother-sister battle.  There is a masterpiece of lighting on the display stage on the first floor.  A middle-aged man with a goatee came on stage.  He raised his head with a smile and said to the guests on the second and third floors: "Everyone, I am Misu, the host of this auction. You should have got the auction catalog, so I won't say any more nonsense. The first item will be here soon.  Lots!" He said, glancing at the two flags on the third floor, and as soon as he clapped his hands, someone sent the first lot.  With the exception of the Demon Sword of Wind, the other auction items were all considered to be first-rate, but Ai Di was not interested in them at all.  He slowly retreated into the box.  Looking at Catherine's back, I laughed in my heart.  With Aidi¡¯s intelligence, she didn¡¯t know that Catherine had arranged a plan silently.  The Demon Sword of Wind originally belonged to Catherine's family, but was stolen by the housekeeper and sold to Winston. As long as he said this, Winston would not dare to auction it even if he had ten more courages.  But Catherine seemed to have forgotten this matter.  Not mentioned at all.  Ai Di is not a fool, he has seen it for a long time.  Thinking of Jeremy's flag opposite, Aidi knew that Catherine had been tricked by Jeremy!  "What a cunning woman. She holds her soul in the palm of my hand, and she dares to cheat." Aidi narrowed her eyes, "But she is really a good player in politics. If she becomes the queen of the Fire Nation,  Will it be very beneficial to me?¡± Ai Di suddenly felt that it would be very interesting if her slave girl became the king of a country.  Just as Ai Di was thinking about it, Evelin walked in and whispered intentionally or unintentionally: "Master, the first transaction price is fifty thousand gold coins!" "One hundred and fifty thousand?" Ai Di was slightly startled, this  The price was somewhat beyond his expectation.  The first auction item is a magic sword with a history of more than a hundred years. It is blessed with a top-level "frost inscription" and is definitely the best weapon for warriors above the Brilliant level.  When Ai Di first traveled to the Eternal Continent, she had no idea about prices.  But later, through the subtle influence of Stephanie, I also roughly know what price should be sold for.  If this long knife were placed in Feileng Cui, it would be able to be auctioned for at least 200,000 yuan, and it might even hit the 300,000 mark.  But it's a bit unusual to only sell 150,000 yuan at such a high-end auction.  Ai Di got up and walked to the balcony, where the competition for the second lot had already begun.  Each bid was for one thousand gold coins, and several nobles were gritting their teeth and competing for the prize.  Ai Di frowned slightly, integrated a trace of mental power into the Eye of Order on his chest, and directly communicated with his soul to ask Catherine: "How many gold coins can you use?" Catherine did not dare to look at Ai Di, floating from the depths of her soul.  He replied: "About three hundred thousand gold coins." Eddie frowned and asked, "How much property do you think the richest man, Winston, has?" Catherine hesitated and said, "Probably", two or three million gold coins.  .  "Ai Di was really dumbfounded. He found that he had ignored a very important issue all this time! That is, the Fire Nation is very poor, very, very poor! The richest country on the Shuiheng Continent is none other than the Roman Empire. The Roman Empire  Occupy the mostWith a large and fertile land and the most abundant resources, coupled with a prosperous industrial and commercial atmosphere, the national power is ranked first in the mainland.  The only thing that can compare with the Roman Empire is the Goblin Department Store, a huge commercial organization. The financial resources they possess are astronomical figures that are difficult to estimate.  It can be said that if the goblins go on strike, the economy of the entire Eternal Continent will be paralyzed immediately!  As for several other countries, they are all very poor!  The dwarves only know how to forge, and their only source of income is the export of weapons and equipment.  The elves live a primitive life where men farm and women weave, and the herbs and crops they export are only enough to exchange for daily necessities.  As for the Fire Nation, they are really poor!  Most of the country's borders are Gobi and desert, and the country's food can only be supplied by the southern plains.  Once the harvest fails, half the country will go hungry!  The economy relies entirely on exporting the most elementary ores to sustain national expenses.  Historically, the reason why the Fire Nation went to war with the Roman Empire every few decades and desperately tried to cross the Thousand-Year Mountains was because their land was full of barren mountains and rivers, and it was really difficult!  In Feilengcui, although three and a half million gold coins are not a small amount for any force, they can still come up with gritted teeth.  But in a poor place like the Fire Nation, a dozen or two hundred thousand gold coins is already an astronomical figure!  Aidi figured this out and looked at the flag outside Jeremy's box.  He showed a smile that was destined to win.  "It seems that Catherine's little conspiracy is going to succeed." Yesterday, my wife's work was handing out benefits, and Xiaoqiang's arms were a little unable to lift while carrying a few boxes on the seventh floor.  ??This morning I hired someone to carry rice up to the seventh floor, but tragically I found out that my family owed the electricity bill, so I went to pay the electricity bill again and struggled for more than an hour.  Sorry for the late update.  , bk
