Earl Guian: Elf Butler comes to solo

Chapter 49 Dance Chapter 6

At eleven o'clock, two servants came to the door on the left and right sides of the ball. They said in unison: "The ball will start soon. Please come with us, distinguished guests."

Ivey walked directly to the door on the left nearest to him, followed closely by Greenle and Edward. Surprisingly, the Duke of Devonshire also followed behind, and the four of them followed the servant. And some people followed scatteredly behind. Perhaps because Ivey and the Duke of Devonshire were walking on the left, many people headed to the right.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they arrived in the courtyard, and there seemed to be a mechanism somewhere in the courtyard. Without paying attention to what the servant did, an underground passage appeared on the ground. Ivey entered first.

"Speaking of which, it's probably the first time for Earl Iveyhead to participate. He's so bold and dares to be the first." The Duke of Devonshire who followed behind couldn't help but ridicule. Ever since the last incident, he felt that he must be at odds with Ivey, the kind that would end until death.

Ivey didn't bother to say more. The Duke of Devonshire was really annoying, but he was much better compared to Edward.

The passage was very dark, and there was almost no candlelight. This feeling reminded Ivy of the Muppet incident. It seemed that he had to walk through a very dark and long passage, but that time it was circular, and this time it was straight. , I don’t know how long it will take to walk, and the candlelight is as dim as ever.

Greener supported Ivy almost all the way, fearing that she might accidentally fall or something, but unfortunately in front of so many people, if he picked up Ivy and walked down directly, he would be criticized. Besides Greener, the other person who walked particularly calmly was Edward. He was also an elf and his night vision was equally good.

Finally reaching the bottom, Ivy gradually saw a lot of candlelight. It was a secret room, but it was very big. There was a large booth in front of it, and there were many seats in front of the booth, but this seat was a bit... Strange, there are words engraved on the back.

"Does Devon assign seats according to their titles?" Ivy saw the words engraved on the back of the seats in the closer row. Devonshire is engraved, which undoubtedly means that this is for the Duke of Devonshire to sit.

The Duke of Devonshire also sat down with peace of mind.

Ivy, on the other hand, went full circle, and even Fenyke, the person who changed other people's memories, was carved. Is it possible that Ivyhead hadn't been there yet? Finally, Ivy saw Ivyhead in the front row. There were five chairs carved into Ilwehead, which probably meant that there were only four people who could bring them in at most.

But surprisingly, after sitting on the seat, Ivy looked back and unexpectedly saw the Earl of Clarendon coming. Sure enough, the dance this time was very novel, otherwise how could he have been lured away? The Earl of Clarendon is back again for this.

After everyone who was about to enter the venue had entered, someone appeared at the booth. He was an attendant of Charles II. Ivey had met him a few times, but he didn't expect that he would hold the auction.

"Gentlemen, welcome to our royal auction again. There are a total of nine items in this auction, which is four more than the one four months ago. There are many people invited this time. But only about half of them came, which is really unexpected. However, this should also make the auction easier for everyone."

As soon as he finished speaking, a woman brought a tray up. It was covered with a layer of black cloth, so it was difficult to see what was inside. However, since it could be auctioned here, it was a good thing in comparison.

"The first auction item, the Crown Blue Diamond, also known as the Star of Hope, is a natural blue diamond. The starting price is five thousand pounds."

Ivey immediately doubted the authenticity of the items sold at the auction. This so-called Star of Hope was a gem worth US$33 that French jeweler Tavone exchanged for jade from local princes and nobles in India. , including this precious blue diamond. After he returned to France, this blue diamond fell into the hands of King Louis of France, named the "Crown Blue Diamond", and was re-cut into a heart-shaped shape.

How could this blue diamond appear here now? It should be said to be a fake.

Ivey, who knew the truth, couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He thought that this auction would really bring something good, but it seemed to be just a fraud. I'm afraid those who started bidding didn't know that the diamond was a fake.

The first one was collected for more than pounds. I really don’t know how this person felt about getting a fake. The second, third and fourth items are also diamonds, and the fourth item currently being auctioned is also a cat's eye sapphire. Ivey found it boring when looking at it. Greener said: "Earl, although the diamond in the first item is a fake, But there are also many good things in this auction, and this fifth piece should be a high-quality cat’s eye stone.”

Ivey yawned and said, "If you think it's suitable for me, I'll buy it." Naturally, Ivey felt bored about things like diamonds.

Greener finally took it away for more than pounds. Even in modern times, diamonds worth more than million pounds may be taken away for more than pounds in this era. After all, the economy in this era is still relatively backward.

The sixth item is a little different. It is a six-color night pearl purchased from the East India Company. This kind of thing is very rare in the UK, and the price is not a problem.

Ivey listened boredly as the people behind him scrambled to bid. In fact, the Night Pearl was not a valuable thing.

The last three pieces were finally coming out. Ivey observed that the Duke of Devonshire had never bid the price from the beginning to the end, but he seemed to be eager to try the last three pieces. It could be seen from his slightly fiery eyes. So of the last three things, one of them must be worthy of the Duke of Devonshire.

"Finally we have arrived at the last three items. These should be the three items that everyone is most looking forward to. More or less everyone here is here for these three items. So, let us usher in the seventh item."

This time it was not served, but on a cart. There seemed to be a large square thing on the cart, which was blocked by a black cloth, but there were constant banging sounds. Finally, the host uncovered the black cloth. , covering a cage, and inside the cage, there was actually a person.

It seemed to be a man. His hair was very messy, and he looked like he hadn't showered in several days. His body was dirty, and the stench could be smelled even from a distance. However, this person was Ivy and Greener has seen it all.
