Chapter 146: Auction


The night scene under the floating lanterns, the day is never more prosperous than the night, and this general law of the commercial district is not very strong in the "ukiyo-e".As the central auction house of the CBD and one of the largest trading venues in the country, the place is often open for only a few days a year, and in most cases, the lights that illuminate this opera-style building never come from the inside, but the neon and car lights on the outside.But just for a few days, the sheer volume of footfall can lead to a huge amount of wealth that other venues can't create in years.Everyone who is fortunate enough to attend here is either a nobleman from a social class or an elite from all walks of life.They are the most outstanding representatives of successful people, and they are also the unpredictable people who walk the world in the mask of goodness.Don't underestimate anyone you see in your eyes, this is the most sincere advice from the old monster to Lu Cheng before leaving.Lu Cheng smiled, showed his ticket to the er at the door, and then walked into this paradise that ordinary people never dreamed of.His outfit was still the black suit and leather shoes that the little fox casually chose for him that day on the shopping street.In terms of brand prestige alone, it is probably at the same level as the waiters here, but it is better than the different temperaments brought by the bloodline of the demon race, just as blacks are naturally strong, yellow people are shorter than whites, and the bloodline of the demon race is naturally more beautiful than humans after transforming into human form.The current Lu Cheng has matured too much compared to the previous college student, and coupled with the occasional evil aura overflowing from his delicate face, it is easy to fascinate ordinary girls.It's the same at the temperament level.There is no need for the decoration of brand-name clothing, just from far and near, the er at the door has already seen the extraordinaryness of this person, so from showing the ticket to the welcome of the waiter, the whole process is smooth and smooth.No one would stop a noble prince from attending a formal occasion, just as no one would question why the emperor would fit so well in a dragon robe, because to some extent, this kind of occasion, this kind of clothes, is made for them.There is no doubt that in this regard, Lu Cheng played this role very well."

Hello sir, according to the ticket you presented, your location is a VIP seat in the entire auction house.The er came up to him."

Before the auction begins, we have a dedicated lounge area for our valued customers like you, with refreshments and a dedicated lounge, which I can take you to."

Lu Cheng smiled, the design of this set version was obviously inspired by the maid costume, and I don't know what kind of crooked idea the manager here is to let the waitress dress up like this, is this an intention to paralyze and seduce those undetermined male guests "Okay," he nodded with a spring breeze smile, "Then please take me there." ”This intimate and warm smile made the girl in the maid's costume feel a spring ripple, probably thinking that this boy might be a little interesting to herself, so the warm smile on the maid's face became more and more overflowing.Such a plot made Lu Cheng think of the kind of trading occasions with the nature of the wind and moon in the old days, where the women were similar to slaves without personal freedom, and they could often be looked at by the rich boy or the young man who happened to pass by, which meant redemption or freedom from pain.Lu Cheng doesn't know if he really wants to compare, which kind of rich boy and righteous young man should belong to, maybe it's both, since a certain lady surnamed Tang praised him from the bottom of her heart, "You have become a lot more handsome inexplicably during this time", his self-confidence in his appearance has never declined.Of course, he didn't know that the handsomeness that Tang Yuefei was talking about was far from the kind of young chivalrous handsomeness who "couldn't get rid of the grace of beauties, and fought with swords and rivers and lakes for a red face", but some self-proclaimed "No. 1 beauties in the Three Realms" Demon Realm Saints and Demon Sect Leaders.There is no way, who has let the twin bloodlines of yin and yang have only awakened one demon god bloodline so far The slumber of the bloodline of the underworld is destined to be able to go away in the heroic posture of the demon clan, and he has no chance to wave his hand with the fierce and bullying posture of the underworld.This is providential, and no one can change it."

May I ask this gentleman, your surname," the girl chatted with him intentionally."

Don't have your surname Lu."

Lu Cheng smiled."

It turned out to be Mr.

Lu" The waitress showed a sweet smile, "My name is Xiaomeng, the cute one" Lu Cheng sneered twice in his heart, and said in his heart that it must be a stage name.But his current identity is a successful person in high society, so the gentlemanly demeanor he should have must be maintained, and for Zhang Xiang's middle-to-upper girls, he must be catered to if he can cater to them, which is the virtue of a boy and the core element of a gentleman.So while following the steps of the deceased, he continued to smile unconditionally with her, "People are as their name suggests." ”He applauded."

Thank you," the girl said with a flower, "Why do I see that you look like a new face, is it your first time here?"

"Yes, because I heard that there is something I want at this auction." ”Lu Cheng replied."

Let me guess" The girl showed a sly smile, "Is it the famous sword that has just been born?"

"Famous Sword" Lu Cheng's warm smile turned into a summer thunderbolt in an instant, and he who had planned to maintain his demeanor all the time was almost frightened by the girl's words in an instant.What are you kidding, there will even be such a thing as a famous sword at such an auction, "Yes" The maid nodded naturally, "What, did I guess wrong" She still maintained the knowing and sly smile on her face, and then gradually lowered her voice, "Do you think I can't see it, you, you should be a psychic." ”Lu Cheng narrowed his eyes and smacked his tongue secretly, "How can I see that you are also a psychic?"

"No, no, no, I don't have the good fortune to inherit such a great bloodline." ”The girl shook her head, "But Mr.

Lu, you're different.The people who attended this place were generally only three people, one was the business giant with exaggerated wealth, who were looking for some treasures outside the mundane world, decorating their own façade and enriching their collections, and came completely for the purpose of panning for gold, and their bodies were full of copper smell.One is the demon cultivators who have established peace treaties and decided to integrate into the human race, most of them are providers of various auction items, and they often come to find some valuable items to complete their own purposes.And the third type is the psychic among the human beings. ”The waiter covered his mouth and snickered, "I have been in contact with these people for many years, and a pair of eyes have long been trained.The demon race is no different from humans, but if you look closely, you can still see a trace of unnaturalness in your words and deeds, speech and conversation, and changes in your expression.As a business tycoon, you are obviously too young, with all due respect, the business elite at this stage should still be in the stage of hard work, rather than filling the empty spiritual life with these useless collections after becoming famous.So in this way, it can only be the third type. ”"Good eyesight" Lu Cheng gave a thumbs up.He originally thought that the existence of psychics and demons should be to hide the secrets of the world, but now it seems that this idea is also unrealistic.After all, it is impossible for two groups of such a large group to last for thousands of years without being discovered.In this way, for some people in power, perhaps the existence of psychic bloodlines has never been a secret, the so-called "basic principle"s: that is, all the activities of psychic people are based on hiding the existence of their own race from the outside world as the highest criterion, and the premise is that some friends are afraid that they will forget, and they are really put in front of interests and reality, which is ridiculous rhetoric.However, if it is really as this maid said, there is really a famous sword that was born not long ago in this auction, Lu Cheng feels that he is afraid that it is necessary to re-examine this game of interest competition between high-ranking people.This is an auction in which the psychic and the demon race jointly provide the auction source, which in itself means infinite possibilities.It is not uncommon for a famous sword to appear here that has not yet recognized the master, and similarly, in addition to Qihua Yaocao, there should also be more good things appearing "I have a question," he said to the maid, "The famous sword will recognize the lord by itself, without this fate, it is useless to buy it back, in this case, how can this famous sword be auctioned" "Ah, you don't know" The maid covered her mouth, but after thinking about it, she was relieved again."

It's normal, after all, this famous sword is only used as a lottery for the opening of this auction, and it is not in the auction list itself.So it's not surprising that you don't know, sir. ”"I'm sorry," Lu Cheng shook his head regretfully, "I really don't know, I honestly haven't decided on my goal this time, I'm just trying my luck here on my friend's suggestion."

But as you said, the existence of this famous sword has aroused a lot of interest in me, and I think I should compete if I can. ”"I think you have this potential, sir," the girl cast an approving gaze, vaguely expressing her love, "This famous sword is destined to be only a lottery for the opening, before the auction begins, interested customers can go to watch after paying a certain fee, if there is a fate to resonate with the famous sword, then you can get the ownership of this famous sword for free."

And if no one in the audience resonates with it, the sword will be auctioned off as a regular collection for a reserve price of 10 million, and then brought back to his collection as a work of art by a private enthusiast.With your VIP seat, sir, you can directly enter the front desk to participate in the competition for this sword, anyway, this is an opportunity, I don't think anyone will refuse" "Yes, then we don't have to go to any rest area." ”Lu Cheng smiled, "Let's go directly to the front desk, I think I'm lucky, I should be able to try my luck." ”"Okay, this way, please," the girl led the way."

By the way, I don't know which of the ten famous swords in this auction will be the existence of the unrecognized master," Lu Cheng asked.With his current strength, he is indeed extremely eager for a famous sword that can keep pace with the Demon Sword Black Dragon.Before collecting the black dragon three-piece set to summon the "Black Dragon Sigh" underworld armor, his own defense can only rely on the black dragon sword body to maintain, and many battles have shown that the demon sword snake repair is overstretched, and in the face of upgraded battle scenes in the future, this fake demon knife will inevitably become a shortcoming that restricts his own strength.Originally, the famous sword against the scale should be his best choice, but Gu Yang's existence has already openly picked out the end of this plan, so if he accidentally obtains a new famous sword at this time, it will undoubtedly be the best news for Lu Cheng."

I think about it," the girl said, glancing at the palatial chandelier in the hall, "it should be called the Broken Bridge." ”:
