Chapter 614

Through the long and dark corridor, Lorraine and his party entered the private room.

The construction of the auction venue looks like a theater, but it saves seats and pushes the huge echo wall directly in front of the three rows of private rooms like Longmen Grottoes.

The balcony of the private room is equipped with an enclosure along the outer edge, or perhaps an inverted step. In short, Lorraine can't see the content of any one of the front, rear, left and right rooms. Only the stage and only the stage are presented in front of her.

At this point, Lorraine estimated that the bidders had long been numb to the small means of protecting privacy. At least he was numb himself. Instead, he paid more attention to the decoration of the box.

The decoration is very comfortable.

The dark tone is composed of thick carpet and cotton wallpaper, taking into account the softness and sound insulation. The furnishings inside, whether sofas, bars or configured drinks and snacks, do not strive for luxury, but focus on comfort and taste.

Lorraine feels more and more that Morgan chamber of commerce is a genius of selling experience. He always knows the limit of his ability and always has a way to make people feel his dedication in the limit.

Cheap services can be exchanged into high-quality enjoyment in their hands. Even if they can't reach the top in any field, people can't find any problems.

The box clock steadily jumped to ten o'clock sharp. There was no bell. Only a blonde woman in a bright red dress stepped on the stage.

She is very beautiful. Her blond wavy hair is draped around her waist. Her tall body has a pair of plump long legs, lined with wide but slender shoulders and arms, highlighting her plump chest and hips.

In contrast, her facial features are mediocre, with big eyes, high bridge of nose, deep eye sockets and exquisite makeup. That kind of ordinary beauty is everywhere in the upper class social circle, especially compared with her hot figure, which is more difficult to impress.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the 25th asylum villa auction is about to begin." her voice is soft and gentle, and the hidden and undetectable vibrato seems to scratch people's hearts. "I'm Susan Morgan, the patriarch of the Morgan family. I sincerely appreciate your presence and hope Morgan can bring you an unforgettable two-day journey."

Lorraine heard a repressed exclamation.

Susan Morgan is the youngest patriarch in the 100 year history of the Morgan family and the first legendary patriarch.

It is said that she inherited her family at the age of 12. In the following two years, a total of 7 relatives died unexpectedly, and at least 4 suitors were dead or disabled.

She was the only common beneficiary of these accidents. It was through these accidents that she mastered the real power of this century old family at the fastest speed. At the age of 14, she became a real Ms. Morgan.

According to Lorraine, this should have happened almost 14 or 5 years ago. Throughout the years when she controlled the family, Ms. Morgan can only be regarded as a regular patriarch.

The chamber of Commerce has not expanded and its business has limited growth. As a business-oriented family, the patriarch does not preside over the guild or the overall situation in the social circle.

She's not even married. Because of the tragic fate of several suitors when she was young, she got the nickname of "Diamond Black Widow" for nothing. I didn't seem to have any intention to clarify. As a result, even the mission of inheriting the Morgan family was delayed.

Susan Morgan is such a strange woman, with all kinds of strange news, which makes her easily get no less hot topic than Lorraine in high-class society.

However, Lorraine heard about her for the first time ten years ago and heard about her countless times before and after, but she didn't see her for the first time until today.

Standing in the middle of the stage, she said: "as the host, I should have introduced the history of the auction of asylum villa to you in brief words, or talked about the glory of the family like everyone who was influenced by Zu Meng... However, I know you are not interested in these."

"Your distinguished guests have come here for only one purpose, that is, to collect Xinyi's auction. So let's make a long story short. I announce that the first auction of the 25th asylum villa begins."

Scattered applause broke out, Susan bowed out in applause, and the other end of the stage quickly came up, the master of ceremonies in swallowtail, and stood firm on the mark of the stage.

"Gentlemen and ladies, I'm hanfred, the emcee of this auction. Now let's invite the first auction, Brada golden knife."

"In 432 ad, the Hun tribes were unified under the conquest of Khan ruga. Two years later, ruga died and appointed Attila, the whip of God, and his brother Breda to succeed to the throne. They were called the emperor."

"In another two years, that is, 436, Breda was trapped by Attila and died under the city of Constantinople. His gold sword and helmet became a treasure of the gerafi family, governor of the eastern province of Byzantium, and moved all the way to Genoa with the destruction of the Roman Empire."

"In 1466, the gerafi family was destroyed by mountain bandits, Brada's gold helmet was lost, and the gold knife reappeared on the black market three years later."

"In 1522, the gold Dao was officially named Breda gold Dao. In 1557, due to poor maintenance, the gold Dao underwent a major repair, replaced the third and seventh gemstones of the handle, polished the blade body, and integrated 2G nickel and 17g steel. Although it generally maintained the original style, the collection value decreased seriously."

"In 1646, the then owner, Mr. Beverly, hired the forging master oguyes to create a scabbard for the golden knife. Through luxurious materials and retro classic design, his value was re promoted, and the highest price of 5500 golden Louis was sold in Paris in 1649."

"Then Lot 1, Xiongnu emperor Breda gold knife, starts at 3600 pounds and increases by 150 pounds per round. Please show your lights and make an offer!"

At this point, Lorraine box.

Lorraine looked through the auction list bored: "the highest price is 5500 pounds, and the starting price is 3600 pounds. In other words, the value of this knife has decreased in the past 140 years?"

Carmen explained: "oguyes became famous when he was young. When he was young, he became famous in the jewelry circle with retro doctrine. However, in his later years, he became one of the biggest opponents of retro doctrine, and his early works were refuted and devalued. This is probably the main reason for the decline in the value of the golden knife."

"Designer's negation?" Lorraine glanced at Haina. "Golden knife, are you interested?"

Haina sniffed: "the knife without blood in 1200 is not a murder weapon, but a toy."

"The introduction said that the maintenance was good, but the gold content was too high and it was a little overweight." Lorraine shrugged. "Edley, yellow light."

Edley answered and picked up the baffle to cover the red light.

Just listen to the emcee say: "3750 pounds, No. 5, No. 6, No. 9, No. 12, No. 18, No. 27. The second exhibition lamp..."

The progress of dark shooting is actually faster than that of open shooting. Under the command of the master of ceremonies, the second round and the third round.

Lorraine learned from the master of ceremonies that the box number is different from the pier number. For example, Lorraine is pier 17, but the box is No. 9, and it is likely to change every time he attends the meeting.

At the same time, the boxes are not allocated in sequence. Lorraine knew that there were only 24 groups of total participants, but there were 30 boxes, and there were also No. 27 among the people bidding for the golden knife.

From the perspective of Laosheng's discussion, these measures are still for privacy, but from the perspective of malice, as the only insider, the organizer, that is, Morgan chamber of Commerce, can secretly let bidders who are not within the scope of invitation, and invitees such as Lorraine can't be aware of it.

The auction entered the fourth round, 4200 pounds, and four companies maintained the yellow light. Lorraine waved his hand uninteresting, and edley immediately turned the baffle to yellow.

The master of ceremonies shouted on the stage: "4350 pounds, No. 6, No. 18, the fifth round of exhibition lights!"

"Give up on the 18th! 4500 pounds, the bid price on the 6th is 4500 pounds! Are there any other bidders?"

"The golden sword of Breda, the Hun emperor, the blood brother of Attila, the whip of God, the navigation keepsake of the great empire, and the legendary antiques inherited from 1400 years! Is there any higher bid?"

"No. 6 4500 pounds! 4500 once, 4500 twice, 4500... Deal!"

"Congratulations to the bidder of box 6, the golden knife of Breda, the Hun emperor, 4500 pounds! It's yours!"
