In the interstellar age, aristocratic families are at the top.
However, after thousands of years of evolution, the family has at least retained the elegant way of eating.
When facing the public, aristocratic families rarely show their arrogance and domineering side.
Such a vicious and domineering style of this group of people is rare in the league, at least it is not shown publicly.
Gao Xuan looked at the man surrounded by the crowd. He was a young man in his twenties, quite handsome and well-dressed. His source power level had reached level 11, and he was a silver swordsman.
The most noticeable thing about this person is the red tattoo between his eyebrows, which looks like a snake, a bit like fire, and a bit like an upright eye.
In short, this red mark is very strange and very eye-catching.
The young man also noticed Gao Xuan's gaze, and he also glanced at Gao Xuan.
Next to the young man, there was a middle-aged man with red hair, tall and strong, with a shiny face. He spoke in a particularly rough voice, like a hero.
The red-haired middle-aged man yelled at Gao Xuan, "Why don't you get out of here now?"
As soon as Gao Xuan saw the red-haired man, he knew that he was the same as the red-haired man who drove the car. He should be the red-haired ghost king.
Gao Xuan didn't say anything, got up and went to the back row.
The young man showed some interest in Gao Xuan. He asked casually, "Where did you get that mechanical eye?"
The young man is the son of the Heavenly Snake King and has a noble status.
The Red-haired Ghost King Peng hurriedly asked someone to check Gao Xuan's identity. The name of the Red-haired Ghost Gang is a bit funny, but its strength is very strong, and it can be called the tyrant of the Hundred Ghosts City.
They quickly found out Gao Xuan's identity. He was from outer space and bought the auction invitation from the Purple Lily Hotel.
Wang Peng said: "Mr. Xu, that person is an alien Taobao customer..."
Xu Shao nodded slightly: "Oh."
Wang Peng added: "If Master Xu doesn't like him, I'll kill him when we get out."
"Hahaha… "
Xu Shao laughed: "That's not necessary. I just think this guy seems interesting."
At the same time, Shan Baihe, who was sitting in the last row, said nervously to Gao Xuan, "It's Xu Fang, the son of the Heavenly Snake King."
When Lily saw the strange mark on the young man's forehead, she immediately recognized his identity.
The highest administrators of the Black Flag League were known as the Ten Kings, among whom the Heavenly Snake King was the most recognizable. All of his lineage had the Heavenly Snake mark on their foreheads.
It is said that the Heavenly Snake King has a very young son, Xu Fang, who is very much favored by the Heavenly Snake King. Judging from the young man's dress and the red-haired ghost's flattery, he must be the Heavenly Snake King's youngest son, Xu Fang.
Shan Baili warned Gao Xuan: "Don't get into conflict with the other party."
She was afraid that Gao Xuan didn't know the situation and might anger Xu Fang, so she briefly explained the situation of the Black Flag Alliance to Gao Xuan.
The top management of the Black Flag League is now called the Ten Kings. Within the Black Flag League, offending the Ten Kings is a sure death. No matter what family background Gao Xuan has, it is useless here.
Gao Xuan listened silently. He was not afraid of the Heavenly Snake King. He just came here to do business, and there was no need to get into a conflict over a trivial matter.
Get the Book of Omniscience as soon as possible and get out of here.
The Black Flag Alliance is a garbage dump. He will clean it up when he has the ability.
After a brief commotion, the auction continued.
Baigui City is the largest city on the Death Planet, and the items auctioned are all good. However, at most, they are silver-level rare items. Otherwise, there are rare items whose level is difficult to determine.
Gao Xuan didn't want to appear too purposeful, so he took pictures of several very valuable silver artifacts.
However, the demand for this rare item was extremely high, and the price was quickly driven up by everyone.
Gao Xuan took pictures of several items, but didn't get anything.
Shan Baihe didn't know what Gao Xuan wanted, so she enthusiastically gave him advice.
She felt that the several silver treasures were very valuable and it was a good deal to buy them at a high price.
The key is that the more money Gao Xuan spends, the higher commission she can get.
The atmosphere at the auction was very lively and the competition was fierce.
Many people will get lost in this atmosphere and start bidding frantically.
Unfortunately, Gao Xuan acted very calmly, not at all like an impulsive young man from a noble family.
Halfway through the auction, a blank, yellowed book appeared on the projection screen behind the auctioneer. It said that it was a rare book, but its purpose was unknown.
The auctioneer said loudly: "This is a rare book. Although it is impossible to determine its grade, the fact that it cannot be determined means that this rare book is special.
"Moreover, after a long period of storage, this item has not shown any harmful negative effects. Even if this item has no practical use, you can still put it at home and play with it. If you discover the secret inside, you will become rich..."
The auctioneer said excitedly: "Life always needs some surprises and miracles. With this rare item, the future may become very different."
This auctioneer is very eloquent and his words are very persuasive.
A strange object whose grade cannot be identified is indeed very interesting in itself. It is not dangerous either. This also arouses the desire of many people to buy it.
"The starting price is 500 million. Please bid at least 1 million each time."
The auctioneer pointed to the guests in the audience and said, "Now please place your bids."
There was silence in the audience. Although everyone was motivated to buy, the price was a bit too high.
Millions or tens of millions might buy you a surprise, but hundreds of millions would be too expensive. Who would spend hundreds of millions on something useless
The Book of Omniscience has been placed in the Interesting Pavilion for two years, and every time it is taken out, no one is interested in it.
However, Qiqu Pavilion was not in a hurry. These rare items were purchased at a very low cost. It didn't matter if they couldn't be sold, but they could never be sold at a low price.
Qiquge has its own style, and nothing it sells is cheap.
Furthermore, the fact that this book was difficult to identify was bizarre enough in itself. The appraisers also determined that the book was of high quality.
The auctioneer was very experienced in this regard, and he was not embarrassed at all even though the atmosphere was awkward.
He smiled and said, "The price of several hundred million is indeed not low, but it also proves our confidence in this rare item..."
The auctioneer talked for a while but still no one responded. He was about to announce the sale as a failure when he saw someone below holding up a sign to signal.
He couldn't help but feel happy, "This gentleman has good vision."
The auctioneer thought that no one would follow suit, so he looked around and knocked the gavel gently, "Five hundred million for the first time, five hundred million for the second time..."
Xu Fang, who was sitting in the front row, suddenly raised his hand to signal. The auctioneer looked at Xu Fang in surprise. Of course, he knew the other party's identity. But this person had been silent all the time. What did he mean by suddenly bidding for the book
Out of professionalism, the auctioneer calmed down and said, "Five hundred and one million, for the first time..."
Gao Xuan sighed inwardly, as expected, this Xu Fang was looking for trouble.
But if he hadn't bid just now, it would have been a failure. This item is hidden in the treasure house of the Qiqu Pavilion, and it would be troublesome to snatch it by force.
In a place like the Death Planet, it is difficult to leave even if you steal something.
If Qiqu Pavilion dares to do this kind of business, it must have established connections with all parties long ago. It is not so easy to rob something and then run away.
Therefore, the best way is to buy it directly. It is worth spending billions.
Gao Xuan is rich now, and he doesn't want to do so many tricks for problems that can be solved with money.
Of course, he could hold back and wait until Xu was released before bidding again.
The question is why did Xu Fang target him? Was it because of giving up his seat
Gao Xuan couldn't understand the other party's logic. The two sides had only met once, so there was no grudge between them.
Shan Baihe was also anxious. She advised Gao Xuan, "Don't raise the price. That's Xu Fang."
Gao Xuan ignored Shan Baihe and raised the price again.
Xu Fang also followed Gao Xuan and raised the price again and again.
Everyone else understood that the two sides were competing. This was also the most interesting part of the auction. Both sides could directly overwhelm each other through competition.
The red-haired ghost Wang Peng said, "Xu Shao, you like this thing. I will go and warn that kid."
Xu Fang waved his hand: "No, I'm just playing with him."
Wang Peng didn't understand what was going on and could only laugh dryly.
Xu Fang didn't explain. He was not targeting Gao Xuan. He just saw the specialness of this book.
After the mark of the Heavenly Serpent King was branded on his forehead, he developed special abilities, able to see the level of rare objects and the subtle changes in source power.
With this discovery, Xu Fang was willing to run around and pick up bargains. Although his family was also very powerful, there were not many truly powerful and rare items.
With his special ability, he was able to find treasures in the garbage dump. This feeling was so good that he even became addicted to it.
In Xu Fang's opinion, the book was at least of gold energy level. Moreover, it was higher in level than all the gold wonders he had seen.
This alone makes it worth buying.
Xu Fang also found that Gao Xuan had a strong reaction to a strange object, but he couldn't tell which strange object it was.
Gao Xuan actually wanted to auction this book, which made him even more curious.
Xu Fang followed Gao Xuan and kept raising the price, wanting to see where Gao Xuan's bottom line was. Gao Xuan's bids were getting higher and higher, with no intention of stopping at all.
It was obvious that he was determined to get this book, which showed that Gao Xuan must know the origin of this book.
This made Xu Fang very happy. Once he caught Gao Xuan, he would know everything.
Gao Xuan was a little impatient with Xu Fang's pestering, "One billion."
The price doubled, shocking everyone present.
Everyone looked at Xu Fang again. Now it was their turn.
Xu Fang did not bid until the auctioneer finalized the auction price. The onlookers were a little disappointed.
The red-haired ghost Wang Peng felt a little embarrassed, and he said, "Master Xu, I'll go take care of that kid."
Xu Fang smiled slightly: "Don't worry."
Shan Baihe, who was following Gao Xuan, was anxious. "It's over. You've angered Master Xu. You're in big trouble. I'm sorry, I can't help you."
Shan Baili was about to leave when she said this, but Gao Xuan grabbed her hand and said, "You can't earn the commission for nothing. You can only leave after I get the auction item."
Shan Lily sighed repeatedly, but there was nothing she could do. She could only accompany Gao Xuan to the backstage to handle the payment procedures.
Gao Xuan took out 20 source diamonds and gave them to Qiqu Pavilion for appraisal. The other party quickly made an estimate and returned five source diamonds to Gao Xuan. The remaining source diamonds were valued at 10 billion.
Of course, this valuation is 10% lower than the original estimate. This part of the profit is the bulk of Qiquge's profit.
After completing the payment, the person inside showed Gao Xuan the Book of Omniscience and then placed it in a special alloy box.
A staff member came out from the side door carrying an alloy box and was about to hand the thing to Gao Xuan. At this time, Xu Fang came over with a large group of people including Wang Peng.
A group of people stopped the staff member, and Wang Peng waved his hand at him: "Why don't you bring the things over here?"
The staff member was a little confused and looked at Gao Xuan hesitantly.
Wang Peng didn't care what the staff thought. He snatched the alloy box and handed it to Xu Fang with a flattering smile on his face: "Mr. Xu, this is the book you wanted."
Xu Fang opened the alloy box and took out the Book of Omniscience from it. He shook the book at Gao Xuan and said, "Thank you for your gift, my friend."
Gao Xuan said to the manager behind the explosion-proof window: "Something was stolen in your Qiqu Pavilion, don't you do anything about it?"
The manager helplessly spread his hands: "You have already signed the delivery. The things were stolen, it has nothing to do with us..."
"It's just unreasonable?"
"I can't help it if you insist on saying that."
The manager said with a wry smile: "If you are really capable, go find that person. It's no use telling me."
Gao Xuan suddenly laughed: "So this is how you play, I like it!"
