Chapter 33: : The wine is in hand
I have to say that the Chambord Islands are really very prosperous as the intersection of the new world and the first half of the great route in the pirate world.
Among them, the great routes and precious items from all over the world are all gathered here, and the rich are also grabbing a lot.
After a while, several precious commodities were auctioned one after another. Although the prices of these commodities were not too high, this was for Nicholas. At least the prices of the auction items just now were converted into slaves, according to the low price. The quality can also buy hundreds of slaves.
It can be seen how powerful these auctions of Chambord are.
"Now, let's enter the small climax of our auction,
The next item is the humans and other humanoid species that we see most often in our auctions.
Everyone should be aware that although it is a relatively common commodity, the slaves that appear in our Lehman family auctions are all high-quality goods, and they also have an excellent reputation among many customers. "
Then the somewhat puffy host gestured towards the backstage again.
Soon, several armored guards escorted a row of chained slaves to the front desk.
These slaves are all male slaves, and all of them wear slave collars around their necks, and they are dragged to the stage by being beaten and dragged like dogs.
Nicholas in the audience could see that the slaves who were brought out had quite good physical fitness. In other words, these people should be able to deal with a dozen ordinary people at will.
There is even one of them, in Nicholas's opinion, if he is equipped with weapons, it is no problem to reach the strength of a hundred people.
However, although these people have some strength, there is no light in their eyes. Even in the process of coming to power, in the face of the pulling and approaching of those guards, their bodies will tremble subconsciously. Nicholas knows that this is after being abused and beaten for a long time. See the conditioned reflex that comes from seeing these people's clothes.
As for why Nicholas is so clear, it is because he has privately contacted many giants in the dark world. After all, some things are more convenient for giants whose forces cover almost the entire underground world.
And when he was on the sea, Nicholas also killed some nobles and slave owners, but he soon found that it was almost useless.
Because of the long-term inhuman life, these people have undergone tremendous changes in their hearts and physiology. Even after Nicholas killed their master, the first reaction of some people was not to escape, but to rush to fight Nicholas. Or choose suicide.
So Nicholas really can't sympathize with these people.
"Then, let me introduce this batch of products to you. This batch of products is a pirate group from the North Sea. Judging from their tall stature and strong muscles, they are brave and savage.
This is all tested by the cold climate of the North Sea. If you buy it back, you can not only be a bodyguard, but if there is any dissatisfaction, these muscle guys are quite a good vent object. As long as it is not fatal, any damage will only cost a little bit insignificant. The treatment cost and time they can recover can be said to be quite naive.
Even these people have been trained for a long time by us, as well as psychological hints that they are absolutely comparable to the most loyal hounds
So gentlemen and girls, what are you waiting for, the starting price of this batch of wild slaves from the North Sea is only 10 million baileys, which is absolutely good and cheap! "
The audience under the stage looked at these slaves who were dressed in animal skins, painted various strange colors on their faces, full of muscles, and looked good. After the slaves appeared, the atmosphere began to warm up again.
"Eleven million, these slaves are mine now."
"My store still lacks a batch of special recruits, 12 million, and they will definitely use their butts to help me earn it back."
"These warriors should die in battle, 15 million! Our blood and sand arena is bound to win!"
When the competition was fierce, Nicholas heard an impatient voice coming from his side.
"One hundred million Baileys."
After the bidding sounded, the audience was silent.
One is because the price is directly and the second is because of the person who made the sound. That's right, this auction is exactly the bidding price shouted by the Tianlong people not far from Nicholas.
Obviously, no one will bid the price. These slaves are obviously not worth 100 million baileys. You must know that the purchasing power of 100 million baileys at this time can completely buy a devil fruit, even the cheapest ordinary animal. The system can make people gain great power.
Buying these slaves for 100 million baileys is obviously not worth it.
And the majesty of the Tianlong people has penetrated deep into the hearts of these people after hundreds of years.
Although Nicholas is not afraid of the dragons, he is too lazy to bid. After all, buying these slaves is not good for him. Since he chooses to go to sea, from the moment he is caught by the slave team or the bounty hunter, it means that he has failed. .
This is a real world, just like the people who were imprisoned in the advance city, except for Wang Luffi who released so many people, the number of people who died in it is unknown.
In the end, these slaves were bought by the Tianlong people at a price of 100 million. Almost at the moment when the transaction was completed, it was obvious that the slaves were all heartbroken. It is well known among slaves that as long as they fall into the hands of the Tianlong people, there is no chance.
"In this case, counting the previous slaves, the next killing game should have enough people."
The dragon man said to himself.
Soon, several batches of slaves were escorted up. These slaves were basically handsome men and beautiful women. It can be said that they are quite good-looking, but they are just a commodity here, and they will only be a plaything to please their masters in the future.
With the auction of the last pair of sisters' flowers, the music on the stage sounded again, and this time the host named Jike also specially performed a ghost dance.
"I know you can't wait any longer. Let's get into today's theme now. You should have heard of it. We got a batch of wines from the East China Sea some time ago from 500 years ago. I won't introduce it, but I will tell you that the quality of this batch of wines has all reached A+ after the appraisal of the wine club!
Afterwards, several beauties squatted on the tray, and on the velvet cushion on the tray were several bottles of wine of different styles, and the auction at Tianlongren also specially arranged someone to send a bottle. After all, for the auction house In other words, Tianlong people are the big moneymakers.
"Then, the auction starts, and the reserve price is 100 million Bailey."
"Nice wine, a hundred million Baileys."
As soon as the host's voice fell, the Tianlong person asked the price lightly after tasting it.
The audience was just gearing up, and all those who were preparing to bid were silent.
And Jike is also a little speechless. They must know that according to their expectations, the transaction price of this batch of fine wines will not be lower than 250 million Baileys. As a result, only the starting price is now auctioned. This is not a loss to grandma's house.
And the most important thing is that the opponent is a Tianlong person. Even if he wants to incite other people to participate in the auction, he has no courage.
This is the disadvantage of inviting Tianlong people in the auction. Maybe they will give a price far beyond the expected price of the item~www.NovelMTL.com~, but it may directly make you lose money to your grandma's house.
Just when Jike was about to announce the success of the auction, a voice sounded in the calm auction hall.
"One hundred and one million Baileys."
Nicholas made a light quotation, then put his feet directly on the back of the front seat, and his hands were crossed on his stomach.
Others dare not offend Tianlongren, he does not have so many concerns.
Not to mention that the general will not come after killing him, and even if he does, Nicholas has the confidence to run away.
After all, if he didn't have any strength, he would have already died in the gu-cultivating environment of the New World.
After hearing Nicholas's reaction, Saint Roswald was a little unresponsive at first, and then turned his head to look at Nicholas's position. Just when he was about to let his subordinates get rid of this ignorant person, the guard in black next to him. He said two words quietly.
Afterwards, Saint Roswald looked at Nicholas dully, and began to wonder if he should not come to the auction today, but to attend the party of Saint Joniaz and the others.
Therefore, after a simple hesitation, this Tianlong person left immediately with his subordinates, and decided not to come to the dangerous place of the Chambord Archipelago for a short time.
Everyone in the auction hall was a little dumbfounded, and at the same time, they were even more afraid of Nicholas. After all, even the Tianlong people ran away.
The host on the stage opened his mouth as if he was about to say something, but when he saw the back of Saint Roswald who had gone away, he could only sigh helplessly. The last item was originally prepared for the Tianlong people. But now it seems that 80% is going to be ruined.
"Congratulations to Mr. Nicholas for this batch of wine."
Although blood is already dripping in his heart, what can he do? He could only continue the auction with a smile.
