Chapter 379 – 195 [Wizard (Legendary)] Prerequisite Conditions for the Profession Panel (2 in 1 Mega Chapter)_5
It exuded an understated sense of luxury.
Soon, Rein and his two panions were escorted to a small private box on the second floor, positioned slightly to the right directly across from the auction stage—undoubtedly one of the three best boxes.
This moderately surprised the well-traveled lady, but she quickly understood the reason behind it.
Clearly, the Crowley family alone did not have such influence. Even when Baron Crowley was alive, she had not qualified to sit in this box, at best in one of the few boxes on the outer side of the second floor. Your adventure continues at Novgo
Clearly, Yakesen Auction House was showing respect to Rein, the rising Meister.
As the lady had predicted, an old man dressed in noble hunting attire soon appeared.
“Baron Rein, Baroness Crowley, Miss Jenny, good morning! Wele to Yakesen Auction House. I am Lenon Hyde, the manager of the auction house.”
“If the three of you have any requests, feel free to tell me.”
“Thank you, Sir Lenon.” Rein nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
After the old man left, the lady quietly said to Rein:
“This old fox, I’m certain, the giant beast essence Norman used for his promotion came from Yakesen Auction House. Although it wasn’t sold directly to Norman, it eventually ended up in Baron Norman’s hands.”
“Now, seeing that you’ve won, the old fox has immediately e to curry favor with you.”
Rein nodded and said nothing.
After all, chasing profit was second nature to businessmen.
Soon, a white-haired old man with a monocle stepped up to the auction stage.
He held a small wooden hammer, tapped it twice on the table, coughed, and said, “Distinguished guests, wele to Yakesen Auction House. I, Idris, will host this auction as usual.”
“This is Idris, chief auctioneer and master appraiser of Yakesen Auction House…” the lady whispered to Rein.
“Our esteemed guests’ time is precious, so let us begin the auction now!”
“First, our initial lot is golden pearls from the Fadiya Islands, which only form in giant clams older than a hundred years.”
“These golden pearls, when ground into powder and applied to the face, can eliminate wrinkles and tighten skin, with effects lasting up to six months. So, all beauty-loving ladies and misses, seize this opportunity.”
The moment the auctioneer’s words fell, the noblewomen and ladies below began to stir.
“Twelve golden pearls, starting bid at 1000 Gold Coins, the bidding starts now!”
“1100” a lady on the first floor raised her hand and said.
But her bid was quickly surpassed by subsequent ones.
“1200”
“1300”
“….”
By the time Rein came to his senses, the price had reached 1800 Gold Coins.
It made him exclaim, indeed, wherever it was, women’s money was always the easiest to earn.
Moreover, Rein noticed the lady beside him was also tempted, clearly thinking of bidding.
Rein took a closer look at the lady’s delicately smooth skin, as well maintained as an eighteen-year-old’s. Did she really need it?
The next second, the lady raised her bidding card.
The old man named Idris excitedly said, “2000, a guest has bid 2000, any higher offers?”
…
Ultimately, the lady, with a joyful face, spent 2000 Gold Coins and got the twelve golden pearls, which in Rein’s view, she didn’t really need.
After several lots fetched high prices, Rein finally awaited the first item he needed.
“Here we have high-quality ice iron ingots from across the sea, a total of fifty Standard Ingots. Starting bid at 1500 Gold Coins, the bidding begins now!”
