The middle-aged man with blond hair stood on the stage and continued to talk eloquently: "Talking about the top ten stone carvings in history, the lowest price among the top ten stone carvings today is 5.28 million gold coins, and the highest price is the carving work 'Blood Eyes' The mane lion' is the new transaction price in the Proxus Hall auction hall of the Magnolia Empire not long ago, which is as high as 13 million gold coins!"
The nobles and rich people below all fell silent.
The price is really horrible.
"The blood-eyed maned lion is based on the sanctuary monster 'Blood-eyed maned lion'. The author of the sculpture is the master sculptor 'Hoover' 100,000 years ago. In the last 10,000 years, there have also been two A master-level figure, Master Proux and Master Hopkinson. These two have also reached the level of a master."
The blonde middle-aged man suddenly laughed.
"However, as far as I know, any grandmaster in history, let alone a grandmaster, is an ordinary master-level figure. When they are respected as masters, most of them are over a hundred years old. 70 or 80 years old. Who became a master before the age of 30?"
The middle-aged blond man looked down: "Not in the past, but now there is."
"The great Master Linley, he is a genius. At seventeen years old, he is actually a seventh-level dual-type magician. In the field of magic, he is also the second-ranked genius in the entire history of the Yulan Continent. At the age of seventeen, everyone knows the level of his sculptures."
Saying that, the blond middle-aged man turned to look at the stone sculpture 'Awakening'.
The two maids immediately stepped forward and lifted the veil, revealing the true appearance of the 'Wake Up' stone sculpture.
"This is the work of Master Lin Lei. According to our guild hall's investigation, this work was completed in December last year when the snow fell, that is, when Master Lin Lei was sixteen years old." The middle-aged blond smiled. He said, "I've always wondered why the snow last year was so heavy. Now I think it's probably because of the birth of this work by Master Linley."
Immediately, the nobles and rich people below laughed.
"Okay, I won't say much about the gossip." The middle-aged blond pointed to the 'Awakening' stone sculpture, "This stone sculpture has fully reached the level of a master. The most rare thing is that this work is very large, said To be honest, this work could be divided into five parts for auction.”
The rich and noble below all laughed and talked to each other.
"Of course, I'm joking. Each of these five humanoid sculptures has a unique charm, and the combination of the five is like a wonderful love story. I believe that many people who have studied stone sculptures can feel this poignant beauty. love story."
The middle-aged blond man sighed: "Five human-shaped sculptures, each of which has a master level, and the combination of the five can make people feel that unique story. I can't guess the price of this stone sculpture at all."
"The most important thing is that when Master Lin Lei completed this work, he was only sixteen years old. Sixteen years old." The middle-aged blond voice became louder, "I have never felt so lacking in language for a moment, I can't even think of it. To express my admiration for Master Linley in words. He is truly a genius!!!"
These remarks also resonated with the nobles and rich people below.
At the age of sixteen, it is a miracle to complete such a work.
In the box of the Debs family, there was silence.
"Damn guy." Kalan resented the blond middle-aged man, because after what he said, I'm afraid the price of the stone sculpture 'Awakening' will be higher.
"I can't imagine what Master Linley will achieve in the future, and because of this, the first masterpiece of Master Linley that is famous in the Magnolia Continent is even more rare. Alas, it's a pity that I don't have much money, otherwise I would have to buy it if I go bankrupt." The middle-aged blond smiled. Said, "Okay, let's start the auction now, the reserve price is one million gold coins, everyone has no opinion."
One million gold coins!
Reserve price
Many aristocrats who had been lucky in their hearts were suddenly shocked. They were not rich and wealthy from big families, and they didn't even have the idea of 'awakening from a dream' to compete for this stone sculpture.
"Every time you increase the price, at least 100,000 gold coins." The middle-aged blond added, "Okay, the auction of the stone sculpture 'Awakening from a Dream' by Master Linley has officially started."
Immediately, the entire auction hall fell silent.
"1.5 million gold coins!" A noble on the first floor bid directly.
Linley on the third floor listened carefully to the quotation below, and 'Babe' in Linley's arms also stretched out his small head and looked down.
"Boss, from now on, I can eat roast chicken, roast duck, and wine." Beibei's voice sounded in Linley's mind.
"no problem." lei touched beibei's head.
For himself, Beibei is completely his own brother.
"Yeah, I'll be happy in the future." Bebe's eyes brightened with excitement, and she craned her neck to look down, "Wow, it's two million gold coins. A little higher, a little higher." Hoping for a higher price, Linley couldn't help laughing when he saw Beibei like this.
King Clyde of the Kingdom of Finlay patted Linley on the shoulder enthusiastically: "Linley, I'll give you a thumbs up too."
"Ostoni, five million gold coins." Clyde said to Ostoni.
Ostoni walked to a place where he could pronounce it, and said aloud, "Your Majesty Clyde, bid five million gold coins."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Linley said immediately.
"Haha, it's alright." Clyde put his arms around Linley's shoulders enthusiastically. "Linley, are you interested in helping me? We don't need to divide any monarchs and ministers." Clyde said casually.
Linley also had a favorable impression of Clyde.
This is indeed a very charismatic, attractive leader.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me, I want to go back and discuss it with my father. If there is no accident, I will still stay in the Kingdom of Fenlai." Linley said with a smile.
"Indeed, you should discuss it with your father." Clyde frowned slightly and said, "Linley, as far as I know, your father seems to have left Wushan Town. I checked, but I couldn't find any trace of your father. . . . disappeared."
When Linley's reputation was shattered, Clyde went to investigate Linley's relatives in order to ask Linley to help him.
But Hogg was not in Wushan Town.
"My father isn't in Wushan Town?" Linley was a little puzzled, and then smiled, "My father might go somewhere else, and he won't stay in Wushan Town forever."
"Maybe." Clyde didn't say more.
Hogg is indeed hidden very deep, otherwise, if a king of a country is looking for someone, how can he not be found
…
In the box on the second floor of the auction hall.
"Five million gold coins, shit!" Kalan cursed in a rare way.
Bernard, the patriarch of the Debs family who has been gloomy next to him, whispered: "Kalan, you should also know about the family's situation. Now that the family's future situation is unknown, we can't waste too much money on it. According to the discussion of the family, we will give you a maximum of eight million gold coins. This is already the bottom line."
Karan nodded.
Kalan is very clear that the entire family's industry does add up to a full 100 million gold coins, but most of the 100 million gold coins are fixed assets, and the current assets are only about 20 million gold coins. But the family can't waste all their money on a stone sculpture.
It is very rare that the family did not force Kalan and Alice to separate.
"5.3 million gold coins!" Someone in the second-floor box made another offer.
The middle-aged man with blonde hair immediately became excited: "5.3 million gold coins, the lowest price of the top ten stone carvings in the past was 5.28 million gold coins, and now the price of the top ten stone carvings has changed, I can announce that the stone carvings 'Dream Awakening' has been ranked among the top ten stone sculptures."
"Master Yale of the Dawson Chamber of Commerce offers 6 million gold coins!" Ostoni's voice came from the third floor of the auction hall.
Hearing this price, Kalan's face darkened again.
The price reached six million gold coins so quickly, which was beyond Kalan's expectations. According to Kalan's expectations, the last one of the ten stone carvings is only 5.28 million gold coins, so it should be no problem to prepare 8 million gold coins by himself.
But…
Karan is not a real collector and there is no real research on stone carvings.
That kind of true collector can totally feel the heart-warming part of the 'Dream Awakening' stone sculpture, especially when the five human-shaped stone sculptures are combined, it is extremely rare. There has never been such a combination of five human-shaped stone sculptures in the entire history of the Yulan Continent, and it can also make people feel a poignant feeling.
The special sculptor, who was only sixteen years old when he sculpted, is a super magic genius.
"You can't let the price go up step by step." Kalan frowned.
He understands that if the price slowly rises, the success rate of his quotation will be very low.
"Eight million gold coins!" Kalan loudly reported his price.
From 6 million gold coins directly to 8 million gold coins, it suddenly increased by 2 million gold coins. The magnitude of this dramatic increase has indeed shocked many people. After all, the price of the top ten stone carvings is so high, that is, the three most precious works of Proux, and one of them is only more than seven million gold coins.
Collectors are not blind collections, but also value.
Otherwise, blind comparisons are the behavior of prodigal sons.
The middle-aged man with blond hair immediately shouted loudly: "The Debs family bid 8 million gold coins, and they bid 8 million gold coins so cleanly, it can be seen that they are bound to win this stone sculpture. I can imagine that in the future, Master Linley will become For the Sanctuary Powerhouse, the price of this work will not be 8 million gold coins, but more likely 16 million gold coins."
This blond middle-aged man is indeed very strong in advocacy.
But there are not many idiots in the people below. They are also thinking... After all, no matter how rich you are, you have to use it.
…
On the third floor of the auction hall, Linley, Yale, His Majesty Clyde, Archbishop Gilmer, Archbishop Lampson and others all looked down, chatting and laughing casually.
"The third one, that Kalan has made an offer." Yale said in a low voice.
Linley couldn't help but turn his eyes to the box. He could clearly see that in the box, Kalan and Alice were shaking hands. Kalan's expression was obviously very nervous.
"Third, if I press him, no matter what, your stone sculptures can't fall into his hands." Yale whispered in Linley's ear.
"No." Linley shook his head slowly.
Linley was staring at Alice. Alice in the box was like a poor girl who was wronged. The rest of the Debs family looked at Alice with a trace of dissatisfaction. After all, their family has to spend a lot of money for Alice.
"If they really want it, give it to them." Linley said coldly.
Gilmer and Lampson, who were next to them, looked at each other and smiled.
…
in the box.
The people of the Debs family were all nervous, and the most nervous were Kalan and Alice.
"Don't worry, Alice. Eight million gold coins is already an extremely high price. It won't be higher." Kalan comforted Alice, but wouldn't it be comforting himself? Because the family only authorized him eight million gold coins.
And the blond middle-aged man also raised a small hammer: "The Debs family bid 8 million gold coins, is there a higher bid? Then... I'm going to count down."
"Ten million gold coins."
A lazy voice sounded from the seats in the hall on the first floor. In fact, the quotations behind the stone sculpture 'Awakening from Dreams' were almost all contested by the super nobles in the upper bakery. The aristocratic and rich people below were just watching the show, but I didn't expect that there were also quotations in the lobby on the first floor.
"It's really lacking in vision. I think this 'Awakening from a Dream' has opened up a new genre. The carving style is completely different from other stone carvings. In addition, there are five human figures with different charms. Ten million gold coins, it is still worth it. ." The man who reported '10 million gold coins' said casually.
This man in his 30s or 40s, wearing a loose robe, everyone can feel the meaning of laziness.
"Ten million gold coins?"
Kalan and Alice in the box were stunned.
