Chapter 383: An Auction House Full of Opportunities and Dirty

Chapter 383: An Auction House Full of Opportunities and Dirty

The woman wanted to say that they were just bad friends, but the string of reason in her mind stopped her.

Don't think that the three colleagues can complain together just because they are crying. If there is any evidence, they will not hesitate to report it to their superiors.

Plastic sisterhood cannot compare to real benefits.

From the way Gu You protected herself just now, she felt that the guests this person had received before were different. The little conscience she had left prompted her to lower her voice and say, "Guest, please go back today."

"They are here, inside the auction house."

She didn't finish her words, but the girl believed that Gu You could understand what she meant.

"Thank you, but please take us in."

Gu You smiled and said, "We are already at the door, how can we not go in and find out what is going on?"

"But inside"

"Shh~" Gu You stretched out his index finger, signaling the girl not to continue.

"He was the only one who was not injured because he entertained the guests. If the guests turned around and left, he would probably be gossiped about by others."

"So, lead the way. Let me have a good tour of the Seaside City Auction House."

The girl understood, a trace of gratitude flashed in her eyes, and she made a gesture of invitation: "Guest, please follow me."

When I walked into the auction hall, it was a mess.

The milky white marble floor was covered with marks left by horse hooves, and the relief decorations carved by various famous artists on the walls were covered with black marks left by whips. The porcelain, armor and other decorations that should have been placed on both sides of the passage were now all broken and fell to the ground.

Every few steps, a person would appear by the side of the passage, sitting on the ground against the wall and groaning. Judging from their uniforms, they were all employees employed by the auction house, and they had suddenly suffered an unexpected disaster while working.

Ma Hongjun and Oscar covered their hearts when seeing this hellish scene.

I don't feel sorry for the people, but I feel sorry for the broken decorations.

It doesn’t matter who it is. If we give all our things to Flanders, the academy can last at least another 20 years.

Oscar sneaked up to Ma Hongjun and whispered, "Should we secretly take a few back?"

The porcelain and calligraphy and paintings were probably beyond repair, but weapons like armor were different. Even if they were broken into pieces, they could be re-burned in fire.

If I burn some gold bricks and bring them back, I'm sure Flanders will laugh his ass off.

“I don’t think it’s very good.”

Ma Hongjun was a little moved at first. Oscar could think of it, and he, as Flanders's direct disciple, could also think of it.

Thinking of what Flanders taught him after Yu Xiaogang left, Ma Hongjun shook his head firmly: "The auction house is not the enemy."

The school motto of Shrek is "Those who dare not stir up trouble are mediocre", but stirring up trouble is not the same as kicking someone when they are down. Kicking someone when they are down is what the Shrek of ten thousand years later would do, but the Shrek of today would not do it.

You can be a thief anytime you want, except now.

On the other hand, Gu You felt that his eyes had been opened.

If he had not seen it with his own eyes just now, based on the traces alone, Gu You would not have imagined that there was a freak like Qi Tao in the world who could ride a horse and beat people indoors.

I thought that Xiao Chenyu, who was twelve years old and dating a six-year-old girl, was already the limit of being a playboy in Douluo Continent, but I didn't expect that there is always someone better.

“Ah~choo——!”

"Chen Yu, you have a cold?"

In the Lord's Mansion of Notting City, Xiao Chenyu rubbed his nose, scratched his head, and replied: "I'm fine, father."

He had no idea that his ranking in Gu You's heart had risen.

Keep walking forward, turn right in front of the hall door, and then walk around two corners. The girl brought the three people to a minimalist door.

Objectively speaking, this door is not really minimalist. But compared to other places in the auction house, the door with only two goose egg-sized rubies inlaid on it can be called minimalist.

There was a fully armed guard standing on each side of the door. When they saw the girl and three strangers coming, they moved sideways to block the door, glared at her, stuck their spears into the ground, and shouted, "Who are you?"

The girl bowed and said, "I am Wu Juanjuan, the receptionist. I will take the next three guests to find the supervisor to handle the bidding qualification certification."

After saying that, he reached forward with both hands and handed over Gu You's martial arts card.

'together?'

The familiar surname made Ma Hongjun and Oscar frown and they realized something was wrong.

"Oh?"

One guard picked up the spirit card and checked it, while another guard looked the three people up and down. Seeing that the three people looked young, a trace of contempt appeared in his eyes.

"Okay."

After confirming the authenticity of the martial spirit card, the guard put the card back in Wu Juanjuan's hand, put away his spear and said, "Go in."

After the two guards made way, Wu Juanjuan knocked on the door. After hearing someone say "come in", she pushed the door open carefully.

The office was very large, covering an area of ​​200 square meters. A specially made golden soul guide lamp was hung on the ceiling, making the whole room seem to be surrounded by golden light.

There were valuable oil paintings hanging on the walls, any one of which was enough for Shrek Academy to spend a whole year in luxury. The floor was covered with soft cashmere carpets, and the soft touch made people feel like walking on clouds.

The most noteworthy thing is that a whole piece of transparent crystal is installed on the left wall of the room. Through special treatment, people in the room can see outside through the crystal window, but people outside can never see what is happening inside the room.

Outside the crystal window is the most central and critical auction center of the auction house.

"Is something wrong?"

Behind the huge dark brown desk sat a man with a strong presence. He was quite burly, with broad shoulders and thick hands, giving people the feeling of a 45-year-old slimmed-down version of Gu You.

It's a pity that his face completely destroyed his strong aura.

Small and sparse eyebrows, coupled with deep triangular eyes, are the so-called shifty eyes. Even though he has a strong body that can fight with Gu You, Gu You's first impression is still that of a high-ranking thief.

Looks like he has a lot on his mind.

Wu Juanjuan said, "Manager Qi, these three guests want to apply for bidding qualification certification."

The supervisor named Qi raised his eyes and stayed on Gu You for a while. Then he waved to Wu Juanjuan, signaling her to take the things in her hand.

Wu Juanjuan didn't dare to delay and ran to hand him the martial spirit card. Manager Qi looked at it from front to back and said contemptuously: "The lowest-level thing."

As he said this, he casually threw the card on the table. He leaned back and said in a condescending tone, "Take out another 20,000."

"Huh?" Ma Hongjun was surprised: "Isn't the deposit only 10,000 gold soul coins?"

Manager Qi replied: "It is indeed only 10,000 gold soul coins, but that is the price for one person. Now that there are three of you coming in, it is reasonable to increase the deposit to 30,000 gold soul coins."

Manager Qi spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, which stunned Ma Hongjun, Oscar and Wu Juanjuan.

"That's not right." Gu You narrowed his eyes. "At the Tiandou City auction house, one voucher can enter three people, but at the Haibin City auction house, one voucher can only enter one person?"

"Well, I won't go in. Give me back my martial arts card."

There was no provocation in Gu You's tone, but Manager Qi jumped up as if his tail was stepped on. His muscles were tense, and the aura of the Soul King poured out towards Gu You and the other three mercilessly.

"So what if it's Tiandou City? This is Seaside City, and my Qi family is the heaven here." "Anyone who comes in has to pay. Hurry up and hand over 20,000 gold soul coins, or leave your belongings as collateral."

As he spoke, his eyes swept over Gu You's wrist and Ma Hongjun's right hand intentionally or unintentionally, and he stretched out his tongue to lick his lips greedily.

Storage soul guides, his intuition told him that these people must have storage soul guides. The gold soul coins were not important at all, his only goal was the storage soul guides.

The storage soul guide is in short supply, so as long as he gets it, it will be his. Even if these people save up enough money to redeem it in the future, they can just say it was stolen by a thief.

If it doesn't work, just bow down and kneel down, there will always be a solution.

After all, I've apologized, what else do you want from me?

Gu You took a step sideways and protected Wu Juanjuan, who was obviously not a soul master, behind him.

Ignoring the Soul King's momentum, he walked to the desk with a smile and said to the slightly shocked Manager Qi, "Sorry, I don't have any gold soul coins on me anymore."

Manager Qi was delighted and said anxiously, "Then take the valuables from you."

"But I have this, see how much it's worth."

Gu You took out a token from the soul guide and placed it on the table, then gently pushed it towards Manager Qi.

"What the hell is this!!!"

The huge word "snow" on the token and the white swan flying high behind it made Manager Qi swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

"break?"

Gu You turned his head aside in a puzzled manner, which frightened Manager Qi so much that he grabbed the token and kicked the desk away.

"What kind of broken table is this? It actually defiled the token of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Using a silk cloth that appeared from nowhere to wipe the token, Director Qi bowed and said respectfully, "Sir, your token."

"Hey, Manager Qi, what do you mean?"

Gu You's eyes widened in surprise, and he stretched out his hand as if to help Manager Qi up: "I just want you to estimate how much the token is worth."

With just one sentence, Gu You made Manager Qi's face turn pale, cold sweat kept pouring out of his forehead, and his muscles were tense all over his body. He would never let Gu You help him up.

Because he knew that if he was helped up by Gu You now, even if he could successfully fool the enemy, his body would be found on the sea the next day.

After investigation, it was found that the cause of death was being attacked by a sea soul beast while swimming at night.

Seriously, based on his understanding of his elder brother, in order to appease the Crown Prince's anger, his elder brother would 100% throw him out to take the blame.

Seeing that Manager Qi couldn't get up, Gu You took back the token and shouted coldly, "Get lost."

"Yes!"

Manager Qi felt a lightness in his hand and his face showed joy. Facing Gu You's order, he rolled on the ground without saying a word.

It doesn't matter if it's embarrassing, as long as he can survive, it's okay to let him eat food from the toilet.

"Humph~"

Glancing at the dusty Manager Qi with contempt, Gu You swaggered onto the sofa and complained, "You idiot, you're wasting my precious time."

As he spoke, Gu You pointed at Wu Juanjuan and said, "You, come here."

Wu Juanjuan was stunned: "Me?"

"Yes, come and give me a shoulder massage."

Gu You's tone was completely different from before. Wu Juanjuan glanced at Supervisor Qi who was still rolling on the ground, trotted behind Gu You, and stretched out her delicate little hand to put on Gu You's shoulder.

'so hard.'

The wonderful touch of her fingertips made Wu Juanjuan wonder whether the being in front of her was human or steel. However, she did not dare to think too much and started massaging according to the instructions of the auction house.

Ma Hongjun and Oscar stood there in a daze, completely unable to comprehend what had just happened.

It's just a token, why is Manager Qi acting like he's seen a ghost?

Snapped!
Gu You clapped his hands vigorously, pointed at the crystal wall and said to the two stunned people, "You are curious about the auction house, go and see it."

"yes, Sir!"

They were both touched to find that Gu You still remembered that they wanted to visit the auction house. They walked to the crystal window and looked outside, and found that the window was located at the highest point of the auction center.

Not only can you see the circular stage in the center, but you can also see the circles of seats arranged in a circle around the stage.

The first thing they did was to find the valuable item they had just seen on the red seat closest to the stage.

"Son of the City Lord, Qi Tao"

When Manager Qi, who was rolling on the ground, heard the name, his heart skipped a beat.

Seeing this, Gu You, who was always paying attention to Manager Qi, touched his chin thoughtfully and said, "Get up."

"Yes."

When Supervisor Qi got up from the ground, he heard Gu You ask a question he didn't want to answer at all: "What's your name? Who is Qi Tao to you?"

Manager Qi's eyes rolled, his legs softened and he knelt on the ground with a plop. He replied with a sad face, "Sir, my name is Qi Langhai, and Qi Tao is my eldest brother's child."

Qi Langhai was playing a trick. He could have directly said that Qi Tao was his nephew. Since he didn't know whether Qi Tao had any grudges with the prince's envoy, he could only prioritize protecting himself.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a ruthless character who forced his way to the throne. He is now in the limelight and it is said that he even won the loyalty of Imperial Marshal Ge Long from Emperor Xue Ye.

His Qi family is deeply rooted in the coastal city. Faced with the prince who is about to ascend the throne, he must now temporarily avoid the limelight and do his best to please his envoys.

"I see."

Gu You's body was sunken in the sofa, one hand resting on his head and the other hand tapping his thigh, his eyes were deep, and Qi Langhai was so frightened that he lowered his head and dared not breathe.

"Alas, if I had known, I wouldn't have been greedy."

Qi Langhai secretly regretted in his heart.

The rules of the Seaside City auction house are the same as those of the Tiandou City auction house. One voucher can enter three people. However, the eldest brother's son just caused the auction house to lose a large sum of money, so he wanted to make it back from a few young men.

Qi Langhai had lost his judgment because of the smooth sailing. Now, he didn't make any money, and he even offended the prince's envoy. Now he probably has to pay a lot.

Time passed minute by minute, Ma Hongjun and Oscar stood by the window, watching the items on the stage find their owners one by one.

Yes, it was the master, not the user. Everything was just as Gu You said, slaves were important commodities in the auction house, and it was impossible for them not to appear.

Ma Hongjun became numb watching beautiful women coming up and down one after another.

Obviously, both empires prohibited the slave trade, but now such a dirty transaction was happening openly before his eyes.

"How about it? It's interesting, isn't it?"

Gu You showed an extremely evil smile, stood up from the sofa and pointed at Wu Juanjuan behind him and said to Qi Langhai: "I'll take her away. Go back and tell your brother that I will visit her tomorrow."
