Kato Megumi wants to learn magic

Thinking of this, Xie Hongyun smiled coldly, and then gave the order.

"You, send someone to go when the time comes..."

Regardless of what the men here think, if Kato Megumi knew about this, she would probably feel a little bit amused.

It is said that being too clever can be a double-edged sword. People who think too much think too much. When did she become a force secretly cultivated by someone? If that was true, how come she didn't know about it?

Xie Hongyun's idea was indeed correct. Without sufficient resources outside the imperial capital, or under the auspices of a major power, a person could not become powerful. Although Xie Hongyun's guess was absurd, it was also reasonable. However, the other party was ultimately bound by his own vision. How could he, who had been in the imperial capital for many years, know that there were countless strange people and things in this world? Who could know that Kato Megumi was not a person of this world, but a visitor from another world...

That night, Kato Megumi slept soundly. She had no idea that someone was secretly making wild guesses about her and even plotting against her.

However, even if she knew, she probably wouldn't care! As the saying goes, if water comes, earth will cover it, and if soldiers come, generals will fight it. What is there to be afraid of? She is not without ability.

The next day, the weather was clear and it was a good day, and it was also the day when the auction started.

Therefore, not long after he woke up, he was urged by Long Ji to go to the auction house.

"Sister, hurry up~"

Long Ji urged, and Lan Yixiu who followed behind her also looked helpless.

"My benefactor hasn't had breakfast yet. Long'er, you are too anxious."

Long Ji waved her hand.

"Aiya, why bother eating breakfast? There are better cakes and fruits in the auction house. We can eat there! What I have is a top-notch box. The Zhang family is not so petty. The cakes there must be delicious."

Seeing Longji's anxious look, Kato Megumi looked at her with amusement.

"I'm not in a hurry, why are you so anxious...Aren't you from the imperial capital? You have a letter of entry in your hand, why do you act more ignorant than an outsider like me?"

Hearing Kato Hui say this, Long Ji scratched her head.

"Actually, I've never been to an auction house... Although there are notices every year, regular auctions come with catalogs, and the items in those catalogs aren't that rare, so I'm not interested in participating."

"This time it's different because of the participation of all the major families. There is no catalog for the auction at all, so it gives people some expectations."

Longji explained.

Of course the most important thing is that this time she can go with Sister Lan, and Kato Megumi is also by her side.

Thinking of the prophecy, and thinking that I could use it to buy things for my benefactor and bring the two closer together, I felt a little bit of anticipation.

"Okay... since you're so anxious, let's go..."

After tidying up, Kato Megumi was quite looking forward to the auction house, so she naturally followed Long Ji's wishes.

The auction house, which Long Ji had brought Kato Hui to see earlier, was naturally not an ordinary building. It was four stories high and luxuriously decorated. There were also many guards guarding the door, which occupied a large area.

Unlike yesterday, many sedan chairs were parked in front of the auction house today, and countless servants were following in an orderly manner in front of the door. From time to time, people of extraordinary status got off the sedan chairs and handed in their cards to enter the door.

The entire area in front of the auction house was busy, and it was obvious that quite a few people came to the auction this time.

Naturally, there was no problem with Long Ji's invitation, because it was a superior box, so she did not have to queue with the people outside, but went directly in and was led into the box by the maid.

Doomsday Disaster: Chapter 432 Chapter Seeing the Auction House

"Please show your qualifications for the auction."

A servant at the side took the post and said these words. Kato Hui was a little curious, but the man was not surprised. He took out a talisman from his sleeve and handed it to the other party. In just a moment, he was approved.

Kato Megumi then realized that an auction house alone needed not only posts but also sufficient assets.

However, when she saw that the maid who received her and the others did not do so, she understood that this was because of the different invitations, and the maid's answer also confirmed her guess.

"You are honored guests, so you don't need this. Even if you don't buy anything, our auction house will treat you to delicious food and drinks. How can we force you to do this?"

After receiving the maid's affirmative answer, Kato Megumi nodded.

As for the talisman paper, she already knew what it was when she was shopping with Linglong and others.

It turned out that the talisman paper was a kind of talisman paper called Qiankun Talisman, which was specially used for storing things. It was very valuable. One piece required a fist-sized dragon crystal. The value of the talisman paper varied depending on the quality of the talisman paper and the space it occupied.

Generally speaking, rich people use it to store dragon crystals or their wealth, and almost everyone who comes to the auction house has a Qiankun Talisman on them. After all, dragon crystals are an important resource for cultivation and there is no such thing as a bank.

When you come to the auction house for an auction, you can't bring a truckload of dragon crystals! That would not only attract attention, but also look very tacky, which is simply embarrassing.

But the Qiankun Talisman is different. With it, you can wear the dragon crystal conveniently on your body, and naturally you don’t have to worry about whether it is inconvenient to carry.

However, this kind of talisman paper has a lifespan and a number of uses.

A low-level Qiankun Talisman will become ineffective after being used a maximum of ten times, and its storage time is only over a year. A high-level Qiankun Talisman is better and can be used a hundred times without becoming ineffective. Its lifespan is as long as ten years, and the lifespan of each talisman paper is calculated from the day it is first used.

Therefore, every noble family hoarded a large number of Qiankun Talismans.

When shopping with Linglong before, Kato Megumi saw that she also used the Qiankun Talisman, but it was a low-level one used to store the things she bought. After all, you can't let three girls wander around carrying things, that would be so indecent.

Therefore, Kato Megumi knew the use of the Qiankun Talisman.

The decoration in the hall is unusually bright. The gold-wire lampshades adorning the left and right columns are not lit by ordinary candles, but by luminous pearls that emit soft light.

The floor under your feet is made of precious mahogany, and there are wisps of incense lingering in the corridors, dissipating at your nose.

Although it was a bustling scene at the auction house, there was no noisy sound in my ears, as if everything was isolated and very quiet. This shows that the sound insulation of this building is very good.

"Dear guests please"

As the maid walked through the corridor, the group of three arrived and were led to the box on the second floor.

When the box was opened, the interior was still luxuriously decorated as before.

Precious fruits and pastries have been prepared on the mahogany table. The refreshing aroma wafts into your nose. I don’t know what kind of fur the chair back is covered with, but it’s soft, warm, and smooth like silk.

A huge night-shining pearl is hung on the ceiling, wrapped in a lampshade. The pattern embroidered with gold threads on it faintly falls on the wall through the soft light, adding a unique flavor.

The box on the second floor is closed on three sides, and only the side facing the auction house is open.

Rather than being open, it is more like a modern balcony, with a glass-like guardrail blocking the outside, and a curtain embroidered with auspicious patterns hanging inside to block the inside.

When the gauze curtain was lifted, the noisy sounds gradually became louder, and a worldly atmosphere filled the air. The three of them could also clearly see the crowd on the first floor and the auction table in the center - that was where the auctioneer displayed the items.

The structure is similar to a U-shaped structure, with the auction table in the middle and the crowd around the table.

The box on the second floor is similar to the eaves, like an arch bridge, arched high, very close to the auction table, and one can clearly see the situation above.

"Dear guest, I will bid for you in this auction. You just need to pull the bell on the side."

After being reminded by the maid, the three people discovered that there was a small shelf next to the armrest of the chair, similar to the structure for holding chimes, with four small bells hanging on it.

They are copper, iron, silver and gold respectively.

"what is this?"

Linglong asked curiously.

It stands to reason that any distinguished guest who gets a treasure chest would know about it, and the maid was just asking as a routine question.

But even so, the other party did not reveal any expression. The special instructions of the auction house prevented the maid from showing contempt or flattery.

"This is a bell used for bidding at auctions. The distinguished guests only need to pull the bell, and I will know the price and bid for them."

"Copper is ten crystals, iron is fifty crystals, silver is a hundred crystals, and gold is a thousand crystals."

Doomsday Natural Disaster Leaps Over Dragon Gate: Chapter 433 Chapter Enter the Box and the Auction Begins

After the maid's introduction, the three of them finally understood the purpose of the bell.

They don't have to shout out the auction themselves. As long as they pull the corresponding bell, the maid in the compartment will be informed and shout out for them, which to some extent saves them the trouble of speaking.

"That's pretty convenient, okay! We got it."

Waving her hand to let the maid leave, Linglong picked up a crystal clear fruit on the table and started eating.

"Hmm, I don't have much of this kind of fruit at home. I didn't expect the Zhang family to use it to entertain guests. It's really luxurious."

As she spoke, she picked up a few with her delicate fingers and quickly stuffed them into the mouths of the other two.

"Try it! This fruit is rare and delicious."

Faced with Linglong's feeding, Lan Yixiu showed helplessness, but her heart was indeed warm. She opened and closed her cherry lips gently and swallowed it slowly. Kato Megumi also took a bite, and as the outer peel broke, the sweet juice raged on the tip of her tongue.

Hmm... the taste of grapes mixed with honeydew melon is pretty good...

"Come on, come on, my benefactor and sister haven't eaten yet, try this cake!"

Kato Hui took the pastry handed to her by Linglong and took a bite.

In an instant, a sweet taste spread between the lips and teeth. I thought it would be too sweet, but unexpectedly, in just a moment, the sweetness turned into a light sweetness, and then contained some sour taste.

It's sweet with a hint of sourness, and sour with a hint of fruitiness. The overall taste is really good, and Kato Megumi couldn't help but eat a few more bites.

Seeing this, Linglong blinked.

"It is said that the fruits and pastries at the Zhang family auction house are extraordinary. They look really good."

Then Linglong took a few more bites and fed Lan Yixiu a few more times. The two of them were showing off very well. One of them was eating happily without caring, while the other was shy but happy in her heart.

However, Kato Megumi had already waved her hand, rejecting Linglong's kindness. Although the pastries were delicious, they would become greasy if eaten too much. Besides, her need for food was not that urgent, so after eating one piece, she never touched anything else.

However, Kato Megumi drank a lot of the fruit tea that the maid brought up while waiting for the auction to begin. Compared with the tea at the Lan Mansion, the fruit tea here was also good, and she was quite satisfied with it.

In this way, the three of them waited for about half an hour while eating and drinking before the entrance to the auction house was closed. With the door closed and the crowd talking, the auction finally began.

Seeing the movement below, Long Ji, who was lying in Lan Yixiu's arms and having her belly rubbed, suddenly opened her eyes and regained energy.

"It's finally started! We've been waiting for so long!"

Linglong pulled open the gauze curtain, and the scene below came into view. Under the illumination of the night pearl, one could see the crowds of people below.

"There are so many people. Luckily we have a private room, otherwise we would be suffocated to death with so many people."

Seeing Long Ji's lucky look, Lan Yixiu looked at her with amusement.

"No, I just checked and there are some ice stones for cooling down in the corner of the hall..."

"Eh, is that so? No wonder it's not that hot. I thought it was because of the private room."

Long Ji said in surprise, then rolled her eyes and pulled Kato Megumi who was standing beside her.

"My benefactor, you can buy whatever you want when the time comes. Leave everything to me!"

As he said this, he patted his flat chest!

After hearing Longji's assurance, Kato Hui became interested.

"Really? You can buy it no matter how expensive it is?"

“Ah! No, it’s okay! I think…”

When Long Ji heard Kato Hui ask this, she was stunned.

The items that appeared in the auction house this time were all relatively precious, and there were countless of them. After all, each family had taken out a part of their own collection. Long Ji thought about it. Although she had money, her finances were quite tight. However, even so, she could spend as much as 500,000 crystals. Logically, she should be able to buy most of the items! Probably...

Long Ji was not too sure. After all, in normal auctions, the most precious items were only worth a hundred thousand crystals. This time, there would be more good items, so there shouldn't be any problem...

Five hundred thousand should be enough...

Long Ji thought with a rare sense of lack of confidence.

No matter what Long Ji thought, as the crowd took their seats, the auction table on the stage finally moved.

Suddenly, a hole as wide as two people appeared in the middle of the ring. Then, accompanied by a touch of snow-white, a beautiful woman in gauze appeared on the auction table.

Her face was as pretty as a delicate flower, with bells tied to her feet, and her every move was filled with a charming aura.

This woman is the auction house's top auctioneer, Lian Xue. Because of her charming appearance and outstanding abilities, she is also known as the Lotus Fairy by outsiders.

Of course, the fairy is definitely not a fairy. The name is just a slogan, just to refer to her own beauty. But even so, she has attracted many people to come to the auction house to take a look at her. After all, there are still many powerful men in this world. When they see a beautiful woman, everyone wants to take a look at her.

"It's Fairy Lian! She's so beautiful!"

"Yes, yes, you are indeed the number one auctioneer in the auction house..."

Looking at the just-right praise and encouragement from the crowd below, Lian Xue upstairs rarely revealed a smile.

Linglong in the box seemed a bit dull.

"She is beautiful, but not as pretty as my sister and my benefactor... By the way, the auction hasn't started yet?"

Seeing Long Ji like this, Lan Yixiu beside her smiled.

"It should be soon. Don't worry. The auctioneer is here after all."

Indeed, now that the auctioneer has come out, the auction has naturally begun.
