I have a shelter
Chapter 688 Shameless Grandet!
This little episode between Aji and Jasmine happened in the corner of the wing room, and George didn't notice it. In fact, the painting thing was just something he said casually.
He has been paying attention to the auction.
In the next auction, Irene's forces had a little friction with the royal family. It seems that the royal family has paid attention to some nobles who are occasionally not very obedient. But I don't know whether the royal family regards these people as forces secretly influenced by the stubborn conservatives, or whether the royal family has realized that there is a mysterious consortium in this Moon Kingdom.
Those things were hyped up to several times the actual price, and finally "discounted" to the hands of both parties - each has a win or a loss.
It seems that these frictions have been going on for some years.
After the little episode, it was finally the turn of the finale dragon eggs.
The dragon eggs that George and his team brought out this time were all picked by the Duke himself. After that, they were "healed" with potions. So they are all genuine and good goods.
In fact, there have been some dragon goods in the Moon Kingdom - all brought out by Palos. However, what this shameless guy sold were defective products, even dragon dung, which was about the same level as the dragon goods flowing out of the Skywrath Mountains.
Palos almost never took out dragon eggs.
On the one hand, this was mainly because Palos was worried that a large amount of dragon goods would attract too much attention from the outside world. So he didn't take out much.
On the one hand, most of the dragon goods Palos took out were actually given to his students for research - to find the weaknesses of the black dragon. But among his students, there will always be a few greedy scum. So these dragon goods actually flowed out from Palos's students.
Palos almost never took out dragon eggs, but he did take out one - to give to his favorite granddaughter, His Majesty Theodoric.
But although the dragon egg was successfully hatched, the dragon chick did not grow up smoothly. This matter made the queen very sad, so much so that the name of her cat later was the same as that dragon chick - Black Yao.
Therefore, everyone concluded that after the auction house released the news, the royal family would definitely come. And those great nobles who had seen the black dragon in the hands of the queen would certainly flock to it - they would definitely try their best to buy it and then give it to the queen.
The final transaction price of the dragon egg will be related to the future price evaluation of such commodities by the nobles of the Moon Country - the higher the speculation, the more the stores will have to brag in the future.
For this reason, the auction house did a lot of preheating, and Irene also specially arranged several well-known nobles to act as agents.
Originally, George still felt guilty about this matter. After all, the main purpose of selling these dragon eggs is not to make money, but to let them flow to the Moon Country to play a role in dealing with demons.
But after seeing the big families in the Moon Country spend a lot of money on those artworks, George wanted to rip them off. So he was more looking forward to this auction.
And many people seemed to have a sense of determination to win this dragon egg.
But the result almost surprised George - the originally hot bidding gradually cooled down after the royal ambassador took action. This made Irene's "noble agents" who were bidding gradually more conspicuous.
Finally, when the agent bid 200,000 silver foxes, the royal family stopped bidding. Instead, they looked coldly at the nobles who were bidding. It seemed that they were ready to let the dragon egg "break" in the hands of the agent, and then go to their door to make them spit it out.
After that, after thinking about it between the Public Assistance Association and "Theodoric", the agents finally closed their mouths with cold sweat on their faces and admitted defeat.
Until George and Soraya cursed loudly and closed their eyes with a sad face. Suddenly, a group of unknown nobles came to the rescue - the woman in the lead, wearing a hat and a veil, could not see her face clearly, but from her figure, she could be seen to be graceful.
In the end, this dragon egg was sold for 200,001 silver foxes. 100 silver foxes was its lowest bid.
In other words, this dragon egg is only one hundred silver foxes more expensive than the painting that George said was made with urine.
"Hehe." Alexander chewed something in his mouth, stretched his head to look at the buyer, and said naively: "No loss, I made a profit."
"Bullshit!" George cursed.
This price is many times less than what George imagined. This made his heart bleed.
"Fuck! Are the royal family of Yueguo all stingy?! What do you call yourself a royal family if you have no money?! And that group of buyers - you are too stingy, right?! People are asking for thousands or tens of thousands, and you only add a hundred to me? What can this hundred do?"
"Boss." Alexander wiped his greasy mouth and said, "It's enough for my food expenses for a week."
George looked at the empty plates on the table and closed his eyes fiercely.
"Master." Jasmine flipped through the files and said in surprise, "If there is no information about this group of people, they may be from the Royal Family."
The name of this store is Royal Family. If there is anyone who comes in that Irene can't find information about, it can only be someone from the Royal Family.
"It turns out that they are a bunch of shameless Grandets! This auction today is a trap set by them! My money!!!"
George cursed in pain.
Suddenly, he thought of another thing - judging from the faces of these Grandets, the debt he owed to 'Theodoric' would definitely be pursued by 'Theodoric'!
"Fuck it"
When everything was over, Jasmine sent someone to get the check, and then arranged for someone to go to the bank to handle the follow-up business. George and others first advanced some pocket money from Irene and played in the casino for a while. But because of this incident, several people were not in a good mood, and everyone accompanied Alexander to swipe for a while.
Until Alexander lost so much that George felt a little pain, Aji suddenly came back.
"Where have you been, you little stinky boy."
Aji laughed and patted his bulging chest. George looked along his collar and found that it was a scroll. Only then did he suddenly remember the painting.
George couldn't help but be surprised, and the bad mood brought by the previous loss was also swept away.
So everyone stopped gambling and quickly asked Jasmine to open a small room to look at the painting.
At this time, George liked the painting more and more.
However, he couldn't help muttering in his heart: 'A guy who can paint in this style is definitely not a normal person - she must be a lunatic! At least she was mentally ill before! '
The girls felt differently from George. In their hearts, the great artist must be perfect.
They praised George repeatedly, blaming him for letting Aji do bad things, and on the other hand, they were happy about the painting.
"George, Aji left the money for them, right?" Soraya asked reluctantly.
"Yes, he left them a few big gems, enough." George said, but he curled his lips in his heart.
What the hell! With so much spare money to buy a broken painting, it would be a shame to the light of dawn if you don't teach them the dangers of this society!
"Boss, after the auction, the group of people hurried to the port. They didn't even know that the things in their hands were swapped."
Aji was glad that he acted early, because not only did this group of people go to the port as soon as they left, but Aji also found that several groups of people had already targeted them!
"Boss, I checked at the port afterwards, and that group of people are from Saudi Arabia! The identity they used when entering the auction house was fake!" The bold Aji continued: "Based on this information, I checked with Shancha again. I suspect that these people were sent by the eldest prince of Saudi Arabia - that guy is crazy about "Theodoric", and I heard that he had proposed marriage before!"
"Bah! A toad wants to eat swan meat!" George cursed in his heart.
