LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 30 Yueshu Auction House
During the conversation between Xu Zihuang and Qingmu, everyone had unknowingly entered the inner city of Yueshu City. This is the core and most prosperous area of Yueshu City.
There are all kinds of tall buildings, but compared to the Mingdu where Xu Zihuang has lived for a long time, it has a bit less cold and metallic feel. Various retro and complicated buildings give people an antique feeling.
Especially the huge clock tower not far away that is nearly 100 meters high. Judging from the traces left on its surface, it is at least hundreds of years old.
The bells were ringing, and a group of white pigeons at the top of the bell tower were alarmed.
And Xu Zihuang also stopped in front of a strange circular building.
This circular building covers a very large area, with a diameter of at least close to 500 meters, and the highest point is more than 80 meters. Even in this inner city, there are few buildings that can compare with it.
And this is still in the inner city of Yueshu City, where every inch of land is precious, which shows the profound background behind him.
In fact, this is indeed the case. This is the Yueshu Auction House. The owner behind the Yueshu Auction House is Yaoyang, the nominal owner of the Yuenan Islands. This is also the meeting place agreed upon by Xu Zihuang and Wang Yao.
The gate of the Yueshu Auction House is also semicircular, and like the entire auction house building, it is presented in white gold.
There were several tall welcoming girls standing in front of the door. These girls were obviously carefully selected. Not only were they all about 1.75 meters tall, but they also had extremely well-proportioned figures. Although she cannot be called stunning, her good looks and warm youthful aura are still very attractive.
In addition, there are a group of soldiers on each side wearing white gold armor and holding spears. And Xu Zihuang clearly felt the fluctuations of soul power from these soldiers.
The soul power cultivation of these soldiers is similar to his, and they are all around level 20.
It seems that this is the Yueshu City Guards that Brother Yang mentioned.
Xu Zihuang understood clearly, and when several welcoming girls came forward, he directly took out the crescent white jade token he had used before from the soul guide ring on his left index finger.
Seeing this token, the expressions of several girls changed instantly. Several people chatted in low voices, and one of them quickly walked into the auction house, while the others bowed slightly to Xu Zihuang and others in fear.
"Guys, please come with us."
Walking into the auction hall, there is no feeling of splendor. The floor is made of milky white marble, and the surrounding walls are decorated with various reliefs. It looks simple, lively and extremely elegant. In addition to the reliefs, there are also some display windows on the walls of the building, which contain some crystal clear or brightly colored rare metals, as well as many well-made soul tools.
These are the lowest-level auction items that cannot be put on the market, and the price is less than one thousand gold soul coins.
Many well-dressed photographers made pretentious comments in the hall, as if they could satisfy their own vanity.
At this moment, a burst of rapid and clear footsteps came from the stairs deep in the hall.
A voluptuous woman wearing a form-fitting purple dress looked around the stairs, and her eyes finally landed on Xu Zihuang and others who had just entered the hall.
"Why did Director Zhu come here in person?!"
Seeing the person coming, everyone started talking and looked shocked.
Amid everyone's surprised gazes, Supervisor Bamboo walked elegantly in front of Xu Zihuang.
From a distance, Xu Zihuang discovered that the bamboo manager was much taller than the girls at the door, nearly 1.8 meters tall. He looked no older than twenty-five. Her long black hair was pulled up from side to side, her skin was like the most exquisite white porcelain, and her beautiful face was dignified yet charming. There is a very strong sense of contrast.
But what worried Xu Zihuang the most was that the woman's autumn-like eyes were the same deep purple as his.
Manager Zhu showed a touching smile to Xu Zihuang, and then put his bare hands on Xu Zihuang's shoulders intimately.
Meng Lang, who was behind Xu Zihuang, subconsciously became wary when he saw Manager Zhu approaching Xu Zihuang. And just when he reached out to touch Xu Zihuang's shoulder, he was ready to take action directly.
Not only out of vigilance, but also out of dissatisfaction with Director Zhu.
Who is the young master? How can someone like you easily touch him?
"Don't be rash!" Qingmu on the side grabbed Meng Lang's right hand and used his soul power to stop him.
"This is Viscount Yuenan's territory. Think about the relationship between Viscount Yuenan and the young master,"
Hearing these words, Meng Lang looked thoughtful, and his clenched right hand slowly relaxed.
Manager Zhu didn't notice the small movements between the two, and seemed to be completely focused on Xu Zihuang.
"The city lord has been waiting for a long time. Let me take you there."
Xu Zihuang looked at Supervisor Zhu who was overly close to him with a strange expression, and murmured in his heart.
I don’t know what Brother Yang said. Also, the relationship between Manager Zhu and Brother Yang may be unusual.
With the Golden Eyes Martial Spirit, he could clearly see the subtle changes in the depths of Manager Zhu's eyes. Especially when it comes to the city lord, Yaoyang, the deep affection cannot be concealed.
Xu Zihuang waved to Meng Lang and others behind him, and followed Manager Zhu silently. And every time he turned his eyes to him, the latter would smile gently at him.
There is quite a feeling of loving the house and the bird.
As for the group of "high-spirited" and "pointing out" photographers in the hall, they couldn't look away after everyone left.
"This is a descendant of that force again, and he is actually able to be received by the city lord in person?"
"It's not just an interview. Didn't you hear Director Zhu say that the city lord has been waiting for a long time? What kind of identity does this young master have that can make the city lord wait?"
"..."
Going down the golden sandalwood staircase deep in the hall to the second floor lobby, the number of photographers here is visibly reduced.
Connecting the hall on the second floor are extremely luxurious corridors. The floor is covered with carpets made entirely of the furs of various soul beasts, and precious flowers can be seen everywhere. There are even a few plant-based soul beast water lilies that can have a soothing effect, lying quietly in transparent crystal containers on both sides.
Supervisor Zhu led Xu Zihuang and others to an aisle with familiarity and listened to his introduction. Every aisle here is connected to a VIP room.
However, there are only six top-level VIP rooms.
Just when Manager Zhu stopped and was about to continue talking to Xu Zihuang, the smile on his face instantly solidified, he raised his proud head and looked straight at the entrance to the VIP room on the other side.
Xu Zihuang silently followed Supervisor Zhu's gaze and saw two blue-haired girls who were somewhat similar in appearance. The younger one looks to be only about twelve or thirteen years old, while the older one is similar to Director Zhu. His soft aqua blue eyes look at Director Zhu without any sign of weakness. In terms of appearance, she is not inferior to Director Zhu at all, but compared to the powerful Director Zhu, this blue-haired woman has a pitiful air.
"Sister Zhu." The blue-haired girl greeted Director Zhu somewhat flatteringly.
"It turns out to be Sister Shui. Please forgive me for not being able to accompany you in person. After all, I have something important to attend to, and I am taking a distinguished guest to see the city lord. It seems that someone wants to see the city lord today, but he hasn't seen him yet, right?"
Manager Zhu's eyes were slightly cold, and then he seemed to think of something, and responded proactively, changing from his normal state. But there was an inexplicable smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.
Xu Zihuang felt two scorching eyes suddenly moving towards him, and he couldn't help but feel speechless.
