Pirate: Give me your power
Page 118
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.
Chapter 109 Maralui
Not only the auctioneer found out, but many merchants and pirates on the field saw it.
Most of them set their sights on Logan as soon as Baoshu Adam came out.
Now, seeing that Logan did not bid, they felt a little perturbed in a daze, unable to figure out what the big pirate was up to.
Didn't White Fang come for the precious tree Adam?
An idea that made everyone feel incomprehensible and mixed with a hint of surprise suddenly popped up in the hearts of everyone.
However, everyone looks at me, I look at you, no one is willing to test this idea first.
Time passed slowly, and the scene inevitably cooled down.
The fingers of the auctioneer holding the microphone trembled, and cold sweat broke out down his spine.
I'll go, so I won't let Baoshu Adam pass the auction, right?
Then my job will definitely be ruined!
call--
Hold on to this high-end game!
The auctioneer took a few deep breaths, brought the microphone to his mouth, and when he was about to speak——
"One hundred million Baileys!"
After a fierce ideological struggle, a curly-haired businessman sitting in the front row put his life on the line to bid.
However, he only dared to bid a reserve price.
However, this is enough!
Everyone secretly looked at Logan who was sitting in the back row, holding their breath.
Three seconds later, that person didn't have any intention of doing anything.
Bet right!
Immediately, everyone on the field breathed a sigh of relief, and their tense bodies also relaxed.
A smile appeared on the auctioneer's face.
"Okay! This gentleman offered [-] million Baileys, is there anyone else?"
There was some commotion among the people below.
"One hundred and two million Baileys!"
"1000 million Baileys!"
The scene gradually heated up, and everyone bid their prices one after another.
Logan sat at the end with a strange expression on his face.
