NOVEL NEXT Chapter 32: :auctions
Soon Nicholas, under the leadership of Bedick, replaced his treasure with Bailey.
Then the group walked into a bar full of pirates with a few boxes of money swaggeringly.
After entering, Nicholas found that most of the pirates here did not have much reaction when they saw him, and even some pirates were eager to try.
There is a saying, before I drink, I belong to this world, after drinking, the world belongs to me.
And at first glance, these pirates seem to be newcomers in all likelihood, or the kind of wild newcomers who plan to go to the new world without making any preparations.
"Bring one of us a glass of your store's specialty wine, and another glass of milk."
Nicholas basically has no expectations for other drinks in the bar. Basically, when he encounters a bar, he mostly comes for the characteristics of the bar. After all, if he is lucky, he finds a treasure.
After all, as the foundation of a bar, specialty wine is definitely their trump card.
After a while, the bartender at the bar brought several glasses of purplish red liquor, and Nicholas knew just by smelling it that it was definitely a very strong liquor.
"Guest, our boss said he bought this drink."
Hearing the bartender's words, Nicholas turned his head and saw that a big man was raising his glass to him kindly.
In this regard, Nicholas also raised his glass. It seems that the boss recognized him and hoped that if someone was looking for something, he could raise his hand and go outside the bar.
Of course, this is not the case for ordinary people and bosses. After all, those who dare to open stores in such places are more or less reliant.
Nicholas picked up the glass and took a sip.
"Ha, not bad."
Immediately, Nicholas began to drink the 'blood and fire' of this shop, and the chatter of those pirates came from behind.
"Have you heard that the Lehman Brothers auction has acquired a large number of good weapons. It is said that there are two good and fast knives in it, but they are quite precious. I usually see them at all."
"Really or not, that's worth a lot of money, right?"
"Hahaha, it's worth a lot of money. It depends on who made the bid. If those swordsmen were to buy it, the price would definitely exceed the expected price. After all, a good sword is equivalent to a swordsman. life's.
And the most important thing is that I heard that there is a devil fruit in this auction, but the real big head is the wine they salvaged from a sunken ship in a sea area in the East China Sea 500 years ago. "
There was an uproar from the pirates around.
"Stop kidding, who would spend so much Bailey on wine?"
"Yeah, even the wine from five hundred years ago is not worth so much."
The pirate who spoke the news sneered when he saw the fuss of the surrounding pirates.
"Hmph, you poor bastards, how could you possibly understand that those noble gentlemen are so expensive for us, but for them it's just pocket money. If nothing else, I heard that some people in Tianlong even took Sydney wine. Washing feet, just because this wine has the fragrance of Sydney, the auction will start in the afternoon, but we have no chance to participate, and it will cost 100 million Baileys just to qualify."
The pirate said that he shook his head with regret and took a sip of wine. After all, 100 million Baileys sent him to the Chambord Islands Navy's bounty points for the bounty is not enough.
Just then he suddenly felt someone tap his shoulder from behind him.
He just wanted to get angry, but after seeing the person behind him, he immediately shut up. After all, Vestad's figure, as well as the axe and shield behind him, are quite deterrent.
"My lord, what do you have to do with me?"
"What time does the auction start, and you confirm that you have two good knives, devil fruits, and wine salvaged from the sunken ship?"
It was Nicholas who was speaking. He was attracted by the Devil Fruit in it. After all, he just got a Devil Fruit illustrated book and the things recorded on it. Naturally, he wanted to study it. As for the good knife, it depends on whether Katie is suitable.
Also, that batch of fine wines would be a good gift for Xia Qi at that time.
As for Bailey at the auction, Nicholas is not a problem at all, anyway, he did not intend to give money.
What's more, it's not a good thing to open an auction here. After all, this is the largest slave trading place in the entire pirate world.
"Yes, yes, my lord, I'm pretty sure, because these are the things advertised in their auction book, and the auction will start in about three hours."
"Thank you for this information." After speaking, Nicholas drank the remaining wine in the glass and walked out.
And Bei Lin and others also followed directly.
Afterwards, Nicholas also directly asked Vestad, Belin and the others to go back to the ship directly, and then went to the previously agreed place, while he was going to the auction house.
At the entrance of the Lehman Brothers auction, Nicholas kicked the doorman at the entrance of the auction.
The doorman actually told Nicholas that if he wanted to enter the auction, he had to pay an admission fee of 100 million Bailey, and the auction was about to start, so he could no longer enter the venue.
So Nicholas kicked the doorman directly and walked in swaggeringly.
After Nicholas kicked the doorman away, the Lehman Brothers auction house immediately noticed Nicholas, and then the person in charge found a beautiful waitress very acquainted to lead Nicholas to the VIP seat.
This surprised Nicholas. He originally thought that the other party would send thugs, but he didn't expect the other party to be so acquainted, and Nicholas was a little embarrassed to do it directly.
After entering the auction hall, Nicholas found that the venue here was unusually huge, and the venue was already full of people.
Just when Nicholas was thinking about whether to just grab what he wanted or take it all away, he suddenly found a familiar person in the VIP seat not far away.
There is a conspicuous transparent hood on the head, and the white robe has some luxurious decorations.
Isn't this the old man in the Tianlong trio who was beaten by Luffy's group.
After a while, there was a burst of dazzling lights and hot music accompanied by girls dancing on the high platform in front.
From behind the scenes, a big fat host covered in jewels, although this big fat man looks full of energy, he can even keep up with the pace of the girls and make dance moves.
"Good afternoon, gentlemen and ladies, I'm your favorite Gek.
This auction is the quarterly auction of our Lehman auction house. In order to successfully hold this auction, we have deliberately spent a lot of effort to get a few precious items, just to make this auction a success success. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
Everyone has heard of it, that batch of precious wine.
But what I'm going to tell you is that those wines are only number three today.
Everyone is starting to look forward to it, I announce that today's auction starts! "
The host immediately raised his hand to signal, and immediately walked out of the backstage and moved to a large box on the stage.
"Then, let's start today's appetizer, a full set of scallops from Sky Island."
As soon as the host finished speaking, the staff behind him opened the exquisite box, and then all kinds of shellfish were displayed in front of people.
"There are slashing shells, sound shells, video shells and other shellfish here, and they are all from the legendary sky island.
The starting price is seven million Bailey, and the auction is now open. "
After seeing these shellfish appear, there was an uproar off the field.
"Really, does the sky island really exist?"
"Yeah, these legendary shellfish that can only be produced by empty islands really exist?"
Bidding began to erupt from the field, and after a while, these shells, which are very common in the sky, were actually sold at a price of 20 million.
Seeing these shellfish, Nicholas also fell into contemplation. He also knew that there are many empty islands, but the Lehman auction house can get these empty island shells, which means that they have a way to contact the empty islands.
Does this mean that it is very likely that there is another great route in the White White Sea? Even Ralph Drew might not actually be in Qinghai, but in Baibaihai?
However, Nicholas soon threw these questions out of his mind, after all, he had not yet considered this kind of thing.
The first auction item was the shell from the sky island, which made Nicholas even more curious about the finale auction items and the top auction items.
