The most shameless alchemist in history - Chapter 234

Chapter 234

When Nono pushed the door open, a huge venue appeared in front of Du Lei. The venue was distributed in a ring shape, low in the middle and high on all sides. There were thousands of seats distributed around the auction platform. Due to the dim light, all After a short distance, it is difficult to see others clearly.

Among the densely packed seats, one after another people sat down, and the staff on the auction stage were also making the final preparations. It was obvious that the auction would begin soon. Du Lei looked at the auction venue in a daze. This is his first time. This is a gathering of celebrities.

“Hey, why are you stupid again, don’t stand here stupidly, come with me, hurry up.” Nono saw Du Lei standing there and did not respond, and simply dragged him forward. The two of them quickly Just found a seat in the fourth row, this distance is enough for Du Lei to see every move of the auction platform.

“Auction? Nono, what are you doing here?” After Du Lei sat down, he noticed that Nono was holding a number plate with the word “43” written on it. On the way, he speculated many times where Nono would take him, but there was no auction option.

“I think you are really stupid. Why did you ask so many unnutritious questions today? Of course you came to the auction to buy things. Do you still need to question this kind of thing?” Nono glared at Du Lei, and she began to feel annoyed. Whether he came is a correct decision, this is too common sense.

“Buy things? Nono, do you want to participate in the auction?” Du Lei’s cognition of the auction only stayed in the hot spring village. He heard the mercenaries talk about the events of the auction, such as who and who bought something at the auction. , And what kind of treasure appears in the auction of XX.

Before that, he always thought that this kind of thing was still far away from him, but now those things that he can’t reach, but one after another appeared, this made him a little trance, there is a kind of unreal feeling, the surrounding noise There was a lot of noise, which made him even more confused.

“Of course, why would I come here without participating in the auction? How nice it would be to sleep on a big warm bed in this kind of weather, you see, I have all the number plates ready, you hold them for me, and I will let you later. You just lift it, understand?” Nono handed the number plate to Du Lei.

“Let me lift it? Is this really okay? I haven’t done such a thing…” Du Lei hesitated. He looked around. Most of the people who participated in the auction were well-dressed celebrity gentlemen, these people were old They are all in their 30s and 40s, and there are also young men and women in their 20s.

However, there are not many teenage kids like him and Nono. He once suspected that Nono was here to make trouble.

“Oh, why are you so long-winded, everything is the first time, I let you lift it, watch it, it will start soon.” Nono was a little impatient, she put her hands on On his knees, his fists were tightly squeezed, and cold sweat faintly came out of his forehead.

Although she looked relaxed on the surface and smiled, these signs all showed that she was actually very nervous inside, and Du Lei was watching it.

“Okay, I understand, but I’ll say yes first, don’t blame me if you mess up.” Du Lei nodded and accepted the matter.

At the same time, in the backstage of the auction house, all the staff were nervously busy. The sexy and enchanting girl who was ready to take the stage was hurriedly called into the lounge next to her, which made her feel Some doubts, because the auction time has already begun.

She can even clearly hear the shouts of the audience in the front row, as well as the dissatisfaction and doubts. At this time, she should stand on the auction stage and start the auction. But the person who called her was a high-level figure in the auction house. I had to go. In the lounge, an old man was waiting.

“Mr. Fama, what’s the matter? The auction has reached the start time, and the guests are already very dissatisfied. What is it that is so anxious?” The girl asked the gray-haired old man in front of him. The old man looked like He is over sixty years old, with a rickety figure and wearing a gray robe.

“Mike, if it wasn’t a last resort, I wouldn’t risk offending my distinguished guests to call you over. A very serious situation has happened.” The old man exists as an offering to the auction house, even though he sees it. He looks a bit old-fashioned, but his shot is exceptionally sharp.

With him sitting in the auction room, this seems to be a foolproof thing for most people, but it happened that when he was sitting, he had always been very calm and became impetuous and impetuous. Incident, this was the first time a girl named Mi Ji saw him like this.

“A serious situation? What is this…” Miki asked cautiously, and she herself began to speculate on what happened.

“The curse bracelet is gone.” After the old man named Fama took a deep breath, he slowly said what he had called the girl over to explain.

“What? The cursed bracelet is missing? This is the highlight of this auction tonight. We have done enough publicity early. At the moment when the auction has started, if you tell the guests, the cursed bracelet they are looking forward to is missing. Now, this is really…”

The girl Mi Ji was taken aback. She knew the importance of this item to the auction house. This was the worst emergency.

“Yes, as a high-level alchemy amplification bracelet, the curse bracelet is something that countless alchemists dream of. The number of survivors is extremely rare, usually only once in more than ten years. This time our auction house also spent a lot of money. The price of the curse bracelet got it…”

The old man’s expression was exceptionally solemn, and even his hands were trembling. Even a person like him who is used to seeing strong winds and waves knows what serious consequences this event will bring. Still can’t afford the consequences of losing the cursed bracelet.

“Then Mr. Fama, what should we do now, do we want to stop the auction immediately?” Mi Ji asked the elderly calmly about her opinion. She can be the host of such a large auction. She seems to be only seventeen or eighteen years old. Naturally, she has something unique.

“No, no, if you tell the guests that the auction will not be held and the things are lost, then our jade auction house will be discredited. Our competitors will seize this opportunity to crush us severely. This will bring serious consequences. It’s not something we can bear, absolutely not.”

The old man shook his head resolutely. He is very aware of the importance of reputation for an auction house, especially the jade auction house which has developed rapidly in recent years. This has attracted the coveting of many people. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a tiger and wolf waiting in the auction world. .

“But if the auction is held as usual, let the guests know that the cursed bracelet is missing, won’t it also cause the consequences of discredited?” Miki said worriedly, she had to work hard to gain a foothold in the jade auction. Once the jade auction site suffered a fatal blow.

Then everything she has now is also very likely to be lost, which makes her efforts will become useless.

“No.” The old man shook his head again.

“But Mr. Fama…” Miki knew the guests’ thoughts too well. Although she respected the old man, she did not agree with him on this point.

“You take this to the auction stand.” The old man pondered for a moment, and handed a box to Miki.

“This is… the curse bracelet? Isn’t it here?” Mi Ji opened the box in a puzzled manner. A black bracelet was lying in the box. With the naked eye, it was hard to tell what material it was made of. A faint black air made people shudder.

“If the curse bracelet is really there, I don’t need to call you over. This is an imitation.” The old man sighed.

“What? Imitations? Mr. Fama, our jade auction house pays great attention to credibility, and we never show fakes. We also rely on this to establish a foothold in the auction industry. Now we are giving imitations to customers. Please forgive me for doing this kind of thing. No.” Mi Ji shook his head heavily.

Although she cherishes her current job very much, she also has a strong sense of professional identity.

“I’m not asking you to photograph imitations to customers, but use it to delay time. Although it is an imitation, it is also a high-end alchemy amplification bracelet, but the effect is far less than the real one. There are experts in China, but as long as he doesn’t take the stage, he doesn’t see any clues.”

The old man pushed the box that Miji had refused again to her.

“Procrastination? But the guests will know that the curse bracelet is an imitation after they get it.” Mi Ji still didn’t dare to accept it.

“The cursed bracelet was just lost. I have asked people to block the Maple Tower immediately. The person who stole the cursed bracelet must still be in the tower. While you are auctioning, slow down a little bit, I will Find the real bracelet at this time, understand?” The old man told her.

“But… but what if you don’t find the real curse bracelet?” Mi Ji was still a little unsure.

“No, the one who stole the cursed bracelet was a person, not a bird. He could not fly away from the maple tower without wings. I will definitely pick him out! In case…in case there is an accident. , I will explain the situation to the buyer and compensate him for the loss, and I will bear all the consequences.”

The old man said so confidently, but seeing Mi Ji’s still hesitant eyes, he finally made a promise and guarantee.

“There seems to be no other way…I see, Mr. Fama, please find the curse bracelet as soon as possible.” Miki hesitated and finally accepted the old man’s proposal.
