Law of the Devil Chapter 291: [Holy Lady]

Chapter two hundred and ninety-one [Saint]

After all this, Du Wei was sweating, and Zach was pale.

After a long time, Du Wei sighed longly: "Okay, this is already the case, and I can only go on as the Highness wants."

The helpless words on his mouth, but he couldn't help but think secretly: This is a weird thing, why does Prince Chen want me to do it? He pushed me to the corner like this and asked me to be the protagonist and take the pope's promise. This is certainly a way to deal with the provocation of the Temple, but in terms of candidates, the Highness also deserves me. Why don't you let the counts of Villa or Camisiro do this kind of thing? I just picked me to stand on the cusp of this wind ...

It's just these thoughts, but it's not easy to tell Zach. Du Wei settled down, then let Zach go out to arrange today's important auction.

In fact, auctions are not always available on Roland. For example, the auctions in the slave market are the prototype of auctions. It's just that Dewey taught Zack to systematically and scale up the business of an auction house of the kind known in previous lives.

At noon, seventeen or eight luxury carriages have been parked in the open space outside. Many noblemen have arrived first, and even the servants of those noblemen outside the door are already near Hundreds of people.

This tulip house's business is very good. In this shop where Dewey started, a two-story building has been opened separately. The middle hall is surrounded by a stepped elegant seat. On the second floor, it is also arranged. A circle of VIP rooms.

Every month's auction house has become an important event in the royal capital circle. Anyone who can participate in the tulip auction house. Being rich is expensive in the capital, and being able to buy a ticket to participate in the auction has been regarded as a symbol of entering the upper class of the capital.

The seven or eight VIP rooms upstairs have been heavily booked all year round, leaving only one or two rooms for temporary rental.

In the VIP room upstairs, there is the most comfortable soft collapse, as well as free wine, which is condescending. Natural momentum is different. More importantly, there are several benefits: Anyone who has such a VIP status has become a status symbol of the first-class people in the imperial circle of the imperial capital. It can be said that a long-scheduled VIP room can be held at the tulip auction house, in addition to Outside of the most popular land politics figures or the well-known powerful and powerful family ... General upstarts, even if you have money, you can't buy them.

Also, the little Zach is very good at drilling camps. When these dozens of VIP rooms were auctioned, he was benefited by Dewey. After an auction, the ownership of these dozens of VIP rooms has already made a huge profit for the Tulip family.

In addition, after obtaining the VIP status, every month there are people from the auction house who provide free information about various lots. Origins, and even produced exquisite atlases, to inform the VIPs in advance of the rare and precious goods every month ... a series of practices. It is full of those top brands that Du Wei knows in his previous life to treat VIP members.

In this way, not only the halo of these VIPs is enhanced, but also the tulip family's auction house is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Later, almost every auction was full and it was difficult to get a ticket.

Obviously, this "lot" has been circulated in the capital. So today's auction naturally attracted more people.

Little Zach has already gone out to prepare. Later, when people asked Du Wei to come to the auction house, there were dozens of people sitting at a large auction site.

Du Wei glanced roughly, almost all the first-class and second-class aristocratic families in Diduli had a little identity, almost all of them had arrived. According to the rules here, the ticket of the auction house can only allow one person to come in, so the servants and servants of these noble masters stay outside. When Dewey walked in a large hall. Can't help but attract a lot of attention. Most people here recognize Dewey, even if he hasn't met Dewey. Also guessed his identity.

Some of you have to come over and set it close, but when you see the Lord Duke Tulip's cold expression and frowning slightly, I know that the Duke is mostly in a bad mood, and he dare not come up to touch the mold.

Today ’s auction, in addition to the pope ’s promise law, which is now full of storms, the original items are also considered rare goods, especially some of them are made by some skilled craftsmen in Dewey ’s shop. A few precious jewellery pieces polished with the core of Warcraft traffic from the North. So there were a few extravagant ladies and female guests in the show.

Of course, there are also some people who have a different mind, knowing that the Duke of Tulips returned to the capital and counted on Du Wei's body. It is speculated that most of the Duke will come to the auction site today, and he will simply put his home All my daughters were brought, and I just hope to be here with Du Weiyi, maybe they can become a good thing with the Duke of Tulips, and then embrace this big tree.

And more people are trying to explore the wind. After all, the unusual behavior of the temple this time also made people in the elite circles. Come here and see how the duke of the tulip reacts.

Since he came to the auction site, Du Wei didn't say much. The questions and anxieties in his heart were all closed at this moment. He was calm and his eyes were full of firm eyes.

Actually, this is the character of Du Wei. Although he seems a bit smart and cunning, he often likes to take a sword and go to the front, and he likes to speculate and take shortcuts. Everything is used to planning first.

However, if something really comes to the fore and pushes him to the corner, there will naturally be a natural hidden strength in his temper that will erupt. Du Wei is such a person. If there are seven or eight roads in front of him, he will carefully consider the analysis and make detailed calculations. But if you are forced to give him a way and not give him a choice, then he does not lack the courage to go all the way to the dark.

At this moment, Du Wei has fortitude, now that there is only one choice before him. Then I ca n’t say, I have to do my best, I do n’t have to think about other thoughts.

Du Wei ’s thoughts naturally showed a bit of indifference and fortitude on his face, and he walked in all the way, and the few people who wanted to say hello didn't seem to dare to speak. He just felt that the young duke was exuding as if he were There was a chill. After all, the magician's character is moody. No one wants to be troubled at this time.

Du Wei walked all the way to the back. From the gorgeously constructed spiral staircase to the second floor, in the VIP boxes, several old acquaintances had already arrived. First and foremost, naturally Count Villa and the Delan Mountain Warcraft.

Earl Villa has been a member of the Emperor Chen's family since the coup d'état, and then took over the royal industry and became the agent of the royal industry. The power is naturally powerful. The Transylvania Warcraft is the premier weapon merchant on the mainland. The tentacles of the affiliate network spread throughout the military and the Imperial Treasury, and were also the most popular people in front of Prince Chen. As the two of them, naturally they have the VIP status of this auction house. And in the other boxes, they are also the top and top giants in Diduli.

When Dewey came up, Earl Villa stood up to say hello. The Transylvania Warcraft also walked out of the box with a smile. Du Wei finally faced the two of them with a stern face, and smiled and chilly for a while. But last night I was a little grateful to Count Lia, but now I can't help feeling a little annoyed: these guys already knew about the auction. But yesterday he said nothing in front of himself! Although Du Wei knew that this must be the intention of Prince Chen, but he couldn't help feeling some resentment in his heart.

Earl Villa and Delan Mountain Warcraft, but they have been in this circle for most of their lives. Although Du Wei didn't say it, his expression was unavoidable, and the two knew Du Wei's heart. Earl Villa smiled bitterly before whispering, "Dou Wei. I know that you may be dissatisfied with us now. This is also an order from His Royal Highness, and we are not good to disobey. Well ... I started early today I sent someone to send you an invitation, and would like to invite you to a banquet tonight, so as to pay for your sins.

Deland Hill also said something similar. Du Wei now understands why he received so many invitations this morning.

He wasn't originally a small-belly chicken. Since the other person said so, he couldn't even put his anger on his face and smiled. Said: "Both are my good friends. Needless to say, I understand in my heart. It's just ... Well. His Highness Chen's hand really gave me a headache."

The two old foxes both smiled dryly, and did not dare to discuss Prince Chen, the Delan Mountain Warcraft muttered: "His Royal Highness has always been full of meaning, and of course this time is no exception. We are courtiers , Just do it. "

Du Wei naturally knew that this was a shirk, and knew that the two old foxes would not bear any responsibility, so they smiled, and then invited the two into the box.

The dozen boxes above are lined up in a semi-open arc, similar to the pattern of VIP boxes on the second floor of the opera house of Dewey's previous life. Because of this circular arrangement, people sitting in the box can also see the people in the other boxes on the left and right.

Du Wei walked into a box that Zac had arranged for him. As soon as he sat down, he felt a shot in the box next to him. He looked to the left, but saw the box on the left, sitting. A young aristocrat wearing a Chinese suit, this man is a black robe, a gold-colored broadband on the waist, inlaid with a few gems, and the red collar style is also officially some of the most common nobles from the south style.

It's just that people who come here today can sit in this VIP box with old guys like Earl Villa and Delane Hill. Except for Dewey himself, he rarely saw such a young man and could not help but glance at it.

The appearance of this young man is quite handsome, but his face is too pale and lacks blood, but the standard paleness that formal nobles dream of. It was just his complexion, Bai Li still faintly revealing a bit of green, apparently it was hollowed out by the wine in his usual days. Although she looks good, her eyes are relatively dull. What made Du Wei frown even more was that the young man's face was rubbed with some powder. Du Wei has always been disgusted by men doing this kind of greased things. Although this is a custom in the aristocratic circle, he has never liked it. Seeing such a good young man, his face was smeared with fat and powder, and even his lips seemed to be covered with red lip gloss, which made him sick.

And when he saw the young aristocrat behind him, there was also a man in his forties about to wait beside him. The middle-aged man looked smart and capable, dressed and dressed, and he was completely in a wealthy family Look like a manager.

Du Wei glanced at the young man. I found the other person was looking at himself. What surprised Du Wei, however, was that the young man looked into his eyes, faintly as if not very friendly. There was something strange in Dewey's heart. When the young man noticed that Dewey also looked at himself, he immediately looked back.

However, with Du Wei's keen observation, when the other party hurriedly retracted his eyes, the touch was gloomy. But couldn't escape Dewey's eyes.

With Du Wei's current title and power, it is the popularity, in the circle of the imperial capital, that everyone is too late, why can anyone show hostility to himself? And looking at this young man is very strange. Du Wei asked himself that he had never seen it, let alone revenge.

As soon as Du Wei moved, he asked the attendant at random, pointing to the box next to him. The servant was Zach sent to serve Dewey. Very clever, he immediately leaned over and whispered: "Master Duke, this is the box of the Marquis of the Seine. A few months ago, the Marquis of the Seine used 40,000 gold coins to book this box for half a year. Usually, the Marquis came in person Yes, but I recently heard that Marquis Senna was not in good health, and he has not been here for a long time. Well, this young master, I think it should be the son of Marquis Senna, Master DuPont. Marquis Senna has three sons. This Master DuPont is a young man Son, but his mother is the first wife of the Marquis of Seine, and is still a wealthy man. So although he is not the eldest son, he is very favored in the family. "

Du Wei nodded.

Marquis of Seine? The name Duvey knew. The Marquis of Seine is said to have had a close relationship with the royal family, but it also happened more than a hundred years ago. Counting is a long-established ancient giant in the capital. The political stance has always been relatively clever, and rarely involves any political struggle. The principle of staying out of the way is pursued. So it can be regarded as standing up for a hundred years. And the family is very rich, this family has a lot of industry in the southern Empire. And in his early years when he was in power in Augustine VI. When preparing for the construction of the naval ground, the Marquis of Seine donated a large amount of property. Therefore, he was praised by Emperor Augustine VI, and later took advantage of the Navy's Nanyang Expedition to make a lot of war money, and the business was quite small. There were also people in the family who had served as senior logistical officers in the navy, as well as territories in the south and their own fleets. There were also senior officials like the Governor in the family.

In general, it is a first-class family.

It's just ... The Senna family, they don't seem to offend them.

Du Wei was thinking. This master Dupont peeped at Du Wei several times, but he hurriedly looked away and immediately turned his eyes away. It made Du Wei feel a little upset and simply stared at him. The Master DuPont panicked, and quickly turned his head, carefully avoiding, and did not dare to make trouble. Du Wei was so overwhelming that he kept staring at that DuPont master. The other party did not dare to stare at Du Wei, and could only stiffen and turned away, but the expression on his face became more and more stiff, but his eyes gradually became impatient.

It was the steward behind the young master who saw Du Wei, bent over with respect and respect, and gave a distant gift.

At this time, at the front of the auction floor below, Zach has already stepped onto the stage.

The head of Du Wei also changed a black formal robe which was very formal and solemn. He also pinched a small gold hammer in his hand, walked to the front desk, first coughed, attracted the attention of the audience, then he opened his throat and said loudly: "Thank you for coming, this month's auction is officially Start, please be quiet now. "

After speaking, he bent down and bowed to the audience, then went behind a table on the stage.

In the past, only when the auction house was just established, Zach himself served as an auctioneer. After that, he trained a few professional staff to serve as auctioneers, and he was happy to be lazy, but today such an important occasion, so Important lot, Zac dare not neglect. Changed clothes. Raised the hammer and personally came up to host the auction.

Zack now has a reputation in the imperial circle of the capital. Everyone knows that he is the representative of the Duke of Tulips in the capital, and he has given him a little face. Seeing Zack announce the start, immediately, the tumultuous conversation below disappeared.

"Everyone." Zack coughed, then said with a stern expression: "Today's auction officially begins. First of all, I would like to welcome all friends on behalf of the Tulip Auction House. Then. Next, the first item today is ... "

Zack began to introduce a few items, all of which are some expensive jewellery packs, or luxury goods made with the core of Warcraft. The most expensive is just a newly produced "Paladin armor" worth 150,000 gold coins.

In the past, these things are naturally sought after. Today, however, Du Wei sat in the upper room and looked down, and apparently saw the crowd present without any concern. Only a few female guests showed their longing for those pieces of jewelry. Most of the people are indifferent.

Finally, when Zach introduced the decree of the pope's autograph, everyone looked calm, most of them straightened their necks. Look serious.

The auction then begins.

The goods in front are going smoothly, the scene is very smooth, even because of today's special circumstances. It seems that the people present were not very interested in the first few goods, and the transaction price was extremely low. Du Wei looked at her with a bitter smile in her heart. It seems that she did not make much money at this auction today.

Within a meal, the auction of the previous items is over, much faster than usual.

Zak seems to be a little nervous when the final Pope's decree is finally reached. He wiped his sweat, then coughed, and said, "You guys, let's do the last thing today ..." He seemed to say "goods", but only when he got to his mouth, he remembered to use the word "goods" to describe The Pope's personal decree seemed to be somewhat disrespectful, and he had to rush to change his word. I don't know how to describe it. I can only vague the past and continue: "Everyone knows. Her Majesty the Pope is kind and has compassion on those victims in the South. This law has won the promise of His Holiness, and the proceeds of the auction will be donated to the victims in the South. . Let us first thank Her Majesty for her kindness and may the Blessing of the Goddess bless Her Majesty. "

Everyone made a stern expression.

Zak said that here, he paused for a while, and the whole audience was silent for a moment, then he continued: "Then ... I announce that, according to the commission of the Temple of Light, this pope ’s autobiography will begin, Because this thing was signed by Her Majesty the Pope, this auction house has been confirmed by the shrine. This thing ... There is no low price, no upper limit, the highest price will be paid. Now ... please bid. . "

Speaking of this last sentence, the audience fell into silence.

After a while, there were dozens of powerful people present, but all of you looked at me, I looked at you, and no one spoke first. Everyone looked at them with a tentative look.

Du Wei looked in his eyes and couldn't help but sigh ...

If anyone who came here to shoot this thing is loyal to the royal family, no doubt, who would dare to buy this thing? Well, there must be people from the temple who come here and make waves.

Finally ...

"500,000 gold coins."

The first person to speak was a man sitting in the back seat of the seat below. Du Wei looked away, but he was a tall and thin man in a gorgeous costume, but looking at the appearance and hair color, he should Is a typical southerner.

Du Wei winked at the servant next to him. The servant looked at him twice and whispered in Du Wei's ear: "Master Duke ... this person is so born, I've never seen it before. Um ... ... It seems strange today, there are many face-to-face people. "

Du Wei said "um" and said, "Can strangers come in casually in our auction house?"

The attendant whispered, "Well, half of the seats in the past were fixed, and some tickets were sold outside. And our auctions are held once a month, and often the tickets are in more than twenty days. They have been sold before, and some of them are still on the market, and the prices have risen on the black market. These people who come here today probably bought the tickets on the market.

Du Wei nodded and stopped talking.

At this point, the auction has begun, starting with the first offer. Prices soared all the way, and soon rose to a million gold coins.

Du Wei was even more surprised ... Isn't these people afraid of death? To stir such a thing here is tantamount to opposing the royal family! Are these people faint?

But Du Wei also carefully watched it out. These people called the price and they often talked about strange faces. The rich and powerful people in the imperial capital are often silent, watching the developments in silence.

When the price reaches one million gold coins, the sound of continued price increases is much lower. Du Wei's heart moved. Understand the flower head. Obviously, the following faces should be people sent by the temple. Especially the southern accent guys, the identity is even more suspicious.

Du Wei hesitated for a while and was about to make an offer, but suddenly heard a voice "1.2 million." from the corner of the seat.

Looking at Du Wei, this man is a big businessman in the standard imperial capital.

As soon as this man finished shouting, a Southern accent person called 1.5 million.

The emperor's businessman closed his mouth, but looked upstairs. What surprised Du Wei. The direction in which this man's eyes drifted was the direction of the box of the Delaware Warcraft and Earl Villa.

Du Wei was frowning, but suddenly the door of the box room behind him was knocked on by the door, but Earl of proportion sent a follower to pass a few words to Du Wei, saying only: This thing can not be bought by outsiders. Everyone, as His Highness Chen, is naturally worried about the Regent. Earl Villa and Delan Mountain Warcraft have contacted several imperial capitals and are preparing to take a picture of this together. Why can't the people in the temple buy it and take the opportunity to make a fuss?

Du Wei nodded, it seems that both Delan Mountain and Villa did not know that they had obtained the secret order from Prince Chen, let alone that they had been taken away by Prince Chen. The two of them came to sue Du Wei, in fact, it means one thing: express their attitude to Du Wei. After all, Du Wei ’s title is the highest in the family of Prince Chen who is present. The two also hinted that he was looking forward to Du Weima.

Du Wei thought about it. Understand that this means that Bill and others have stated their position, and this move clearly shows their loyalty to Prince Chen.

He thought about it, he sighed, and then said softly, "Two million gold coins."

Du Wei's opening, although the voice was not loud, but his voice from the floor immediately spread throughout the audience, everyone could hear clearly.

Far Earl Villa and Drane Hill's Box of Warcraft. They looked at Dewey. All smiled and nodded.

After that, Delan Mountain immediately sent someone to send a message to Dewey, saying only: Now that the Duke is out. They shut up, and if the Duke's hand is not compact, he will be supportive.

A good Delan Mountain, it seems that I understand that I have been ordered by Prince Chen.

Du Wei sighed.

He shouted out these two million gold coins, and immediately under the name of the Southern accent, he called out 2.5 million.

The emperors and all the rich people in the whole place took a breath, and the wise people understand that this is the beginning to stop showing signs!

Who doesn't know Dewey's identity? If it was a simple auction of something, the Duke of Tulips spoke, and even if someone else had more money, he would have to give the Duke a face, and he would not continue to bid with the Duke.

But these southerners seem to have been prepared, but they did not give Du Wei any face, so Du Wei confirmed his guess and sent these Southerners to the temple!

The play in the temple is also fun. The pope wrote such a decree and then sent his own people to buy it back.

The meaning is deep!

After all, the Pope personally presides over the baptism and serves as the godfather. But with such a promise, the Pope ca n’t make it to others casually, and can only rely on such grandiose reasons as “fundraising for disaster relief”.

The second step is, crucially, who is in the hands of this promise!

If ... if it falls into the hands of a certain ambitious ambitionist, then if this ambitionist receives the Pope's promise, it will mean that he can be personally presided over by the Pope ... This amounts to the same treatment as the royal family!

The most subtle thing is that "the Pope personally presides over baptism" has been used as a legitimacy symbol for the throne for many years! !! Considered sacred and noble! !!

The most effective and simple way for the temple to fight against the prestige of the royal family is to find a way for them to buy it back, and then deliberately arrange a certain lowly wealthy man to receive the baptism of the pope. In this way, everyone will inevitably think that any vulgar upstart can get the same treatment as the royal family, so this royal ritual of the royal agency ... there is no sacred nobleness at all.

Think more ... If an ambitionist got this promise, then if a vassal of one party, such as the Northwest Army ’s Lugau, was baptized in person by the Pope, it would inevitably make people Lenovo: So can it also be seen as: he also has the highest sacred legitimacy?

This kind of association is very dangerous once you open your mouth!

Du Wei sighed ...

Within the effort of a tea, the price has reached five million gold coins. Du Wei's heart was naturally painful. His money was not brought by the gale, no matter how much the final price shouted to buy it, he had to hand over the money to the temple.

When the price shouted to eight million gold coins, there was finally no sound below.

Du Wei's heart suddenly felt a little uneasy ... Is it that simple? So easy to complete the task? In this case, it would be too simple to destroy the plan of the temple.

Sure enough! Before Du Wei's thoughts were turned, he suddenly heard a clear and sweet voice from the entrance of the auction house. The voice was delicate and beautiful, but it had a certain holy taste.

"I'm sorry to bother you. I know being late is a very rude thing, so please forgive me."

When the voice didn't fall, I saw the door of the auction house was pushed open, and then a woman in a long white skirt slowly came in. The woman was tall and slender, with a white skirt, but clearly the style of the clergy in the temple. Her long golden hair was softly scattered, and behind her was a snow-white coat.

She stood at the door, and her eyes swept so lightly throughout the audience that it caught everyone's attention. The woman was very young when she heard the voice. Standing in the doorway, the clergyman's dress on her body suddenly took on a little holy and noble taste. Although her body is not a little luxurious jewelry, but she throws her hands up, but is full of a noble atmosphere.

As soon as Du Wei heard this voice, his eyes flashed immediately!

This is exactly the daughter of the late Grand Prince, Her Royal Highness Princess, who dedicated herself to the temple!

The Highness Princess came in, her eyes were clear, and a white veil covered her face. Although she could not see her appearance, those eyes were like a cold moon, and she was more upright, and she walked step by step. It was obviously many kinds of styles, but she had a certain holy atmosphere. But fused into her body, people can't help but feel tempted.

Due to the arrival of the maiden princess, Du Wei's heart sank immediately, and she frowned.

At this time, Du Wei suddenly heard DuPont, the young master from the Marquis of the Seine next to him. Suddenly, he whispered in his mouth. Surprise, a pair of eyes full of fiery eyes, staring tightly at the princess and maiden below.

The high lady also looked up as if smiling at the young master. This little young master's face turned red, and suddenly it seemed to have some kind of encouragement, and he said loudly: "10 million gold coins!"
