96 Tiandou Auction House, Encountering Snow in Qinghe
Tiandou City.Lin Chuan and Dugu Yan were walking on the busy streets.
As for Dugu Bo, he did not go with them. Even though there were Titled Douluo spying on them last night, this was in Tiandou City and few people dared to take direct action in the city.
What's more, with Lin Chuan here, even a Titled Douluo would not be able to succeed in a short time.
The noise of a fight between titled soul masters would definitely be very loud, enough for Dugu Bo to notice and rush to the scene as soon as possible.
Before they knew it, they had reached the city center.
"We're here!"
Under the guidance of Dugu Yan, they stopped in front of a dome-shaped building. The building in front of them was completely round, like half a sphere directly hanging on the ground, and there was a huge hammer pattern hanging on it.
Different from the hammer of Gengxin City Blacksmith Association, judging from its appearance, it should be an auction hammer.
In terms of floor space and surface luxury, it is not much inferior to the Great Fighting Spirit Arena.
Seeing Lin Chuan looking around calmly, Dugu Yan immediately smiled and explained, "This is the Tiandou Auction House. There are many rare and exotic items that cannot be seen on the market. Auctions are held occasionally. There must be what you need, Xiaochuan."
"Then let's go in and take a look!"
Hearing this, Lin Chuan immediately became interested.
At the entrance of the auction hall, four tall girls were standing in a row, with their hands folded on their stomachs and professional smiles on their faces.
The four of them could not be said to be the most stunning beauties in the world, but they were pretty in appearance, and their well-proportioned figures, wrapped in well-fitting long skirts, fully outlined their graceful curves. It was obvious that they were all carefully selected reception staff, and just standing there gave people a very comfortable feeling.
Lin Chuan and Dugu Yan approached side by side. One of the girls stepped forward quickly, bowed slightly, and smiled brightly, "Two guests, is there anything I can help you with?"
"We wanted to attend the latest auction."
The girl was stunned but still smiled politely on the surface.
"Of course, no problem. But please forgive me, I need to go through some procedures. Do you have the bidding qualification certification?"
Of course Lin Chuan knew what this meant. He stretched out his hand and a gold card appeared in his hand.
"That should be enough, right?"
The girl naturally recognized it at a glance. It was a gold soul coin card, which required at least 10,000 gold soul coins to be stored in it before it could be processed.
Although it is not the gold card of the auction house, it is enough.
The next moment, the smile on the girl's face became even brighter.
"My two guests, the nearest auction will start in half an hour. You can take a walk around Tiandou City first, or rest in the auction hall."
"What do you think, Xiaochuan?"
Dugu Yan smiled and looked back at Lin Chuan.
"Let's just walk around here first!"
"All right!"
Dugu Yan naturally had no objection to this.
"Please follow me!" The reception girl bowed slightly, raised one hand towards the entrance, made a gesture of invitation, then took small steps and led the two into the auction hall.
As I walked into the auction hall, my surroundings suddenly became clear.
There is no splendor and not many colors, mainly milky white. The overall look is simple and elegant, which does not make people feel depressed, but rather quite comfortable.
The auction house does not only conduct auctions, it also provides sales services. However, compared to the auction items, the items displayed in the hall are not that valuable.
"My dear guests, this is the catalog of all the goods in the hall. It records all the goods for your convenience. If there is any product you like, please let me know at any time."
The girl in charge of the reception was very professional and the whole process made people feel very comfortable.
"Thanks!"
Lin Chuan smiled and nodded, then reached out to take the catalogue. "We can just browse by ourselves from now on. Go and do your own thing. You don't have to follow us."
"Okay, if you need anything, please call the staff in the lobby."
The reception girl smiled sweetly, bowed again, and left in small steps.
"Let's see what's there!"
Lin Chuan walked to a sofa in the lounge area and sat down, opening the booklet to look through it. Dugu Yan also sat next to him very naturally and leaned forward. The faint fragrance of a young girl instantly filled his face.
The booklet is not too thick, but the products listed on it are so diverse that it is a bit dizzying.
Duguyan, who was quite excited at first, immediately calmed down, "It's still not much different from before, nothing new at all."
Lin Chuan flipped through the booklet with a smile on his face.
"Yanzi, have you come here often before?"
"Of course, when I was still in Tiandou Royal Academy, I would occasionally have a few days off, and I would come to Tiandou City with Lingling to hang out, and we also came to this auction house frequently."
So the life of a rich woman is so simple and unpretentious, which is indeed quite enviable.
However, although Dugu Yan didn't think highly of it, Lin Chuan still found a lot of goods that he needed, which were all herbs and minerals, not too precious.
Lin Chuan did not rush to call the staff, but quietly wrote these things down and bought some more to take away when he was about to leave the auction house.
As for the more rare ones, perhaps we can only look forward to the upcoming auction.
As I was waiting silently, there was a sudden commotion at the entrance.
Lin Chuan and Dugu Yan also subconsciously looked towards the door.
A clean-looking black-haired man wearing a clean blue robe slowly walked into the auction hall, followed by two guards.
"Your Highness!"
Some people in the hall who were dressed in luxurious clothes and looked like nobles recognized the identity of the person at the first sight. They were frightened for a moment and hurriedly ran forward, greeting him respectfully.
For a moment, many people followed suit, except for ordinary soul masters who stopped and watched from afar.
"Please don't be polite, I'm here to attend an auction today, this isn't a formal occasion, so please be casual!"
Xue Qinghe showed a gentle smile, raised his hand and explained his purpose.
He said this, obviously not wanting to be disturbed.
"As you command, Your Highness!"
The nobles were naturally not fools. After responding quickly, they turned around and left obediently, but their eyes still fell on this side intentionally or unintentionally.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Xue Qinghe seemed unaware of this and walked into the hall with his guards.
The target is very clear, pointing directly at the rest area in the hall.
"Hey, Miss Dugu, I didn't expect to meet you here by chance. It's been a long time since we last met!" Xue Qinghe showed surprise on his face, his voice was hearty but magnetic.
Dugu Yan bowed slightly, "Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Oh, you are really too polite. I just said that we are only here to attend the auction today. There is no need to be too formal."
Xue Qinghe waved his hands, pretending to be displeased.
Seeing this, Dugu Yan could only nod.
"That's right," Xue Qinghe narrowed his eyes slightly, chuckled, and then suddenly sighed, "It's a pity that Miss Dugu is a rare genius, but she suddenly quit Tiandou Royal Academy. This makes me very regretful!"
Dugu Yan felt a little embarrassed and didn't know how to explain.
"But it doesn't matter. Everyone has their own aspirations. Although Miss Dugu is not in the Tiandou Imperial College, the Tianshui College she has transferred to is also part of the Tiandou Empire. There is no difference."
Xue Qinghe did not continue to make things difficult for him. Instead, he smiled magnanimously, showing his royal demeanor.
Others don't know what he is thinking in his heart, but at least he is doing a good job on the surface.
Hearing this, Dugu Yan heaved a sigh of relief, "Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness."
Xue Qinghe smiled silently, and his eyes immediately fell on Lin Chuan beside Dugu Yan, not hiding the curiosity in his eyes at all.
Lin Chuan's heart suddenly moved!
It's coming.
Sure enough, the next moment.
"I'm unfamiliar with this brother. Miss Dugu, would you mind introducing him to me?" Xue Qinghe said with a smile, his eyes revealing a strong interest.
As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Chuan suddenly understood.
Sure enough, it was no coincidence that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince appeared here.
It definitely wasn't the auction he mentioned. I'm afraid he came here for me.
"I'll do it myself!" Before Dugu Yan could speak, Lin Chuan took the lead and bowed, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Lin Chuan is honored."
"It turns out to be Brother Lin Chuan, he is really a handsome man."
Xue Qinghe smiled and praised, and then asked, "Brother Lin Chuan seems to be a spirit master as well. I wonder which spirit master school he attends? Are you interested in studying at Tiandou Royal Academy?"
It was an expected test.
Lin Chuan chuckled in his heart, but his face was very calm, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, but I have already entered Tianshui College and can no longer transfer to Tiandou Royal College. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
"oh?!"
Xue Qinghe looked surprised, "But as far as I know, Tianshui College should only recruit female spirit masters."
Facing Xue Qinghe's questioning, Lin Chuan had already thought of a way to respond.
"To be honest, Your Highness, I was once in danger in the Frozen Forest and was saved by Dean Shui of Tianshui College. I wanted to join Tianshui College and find a chance to repay this kindness."
When he said this, Lin Chuan suddenly looked regretful.
"It's a pity that Tianshui College only recruits female spirit masters. Perhaps Dean Shui saw my sincerity and let me become a non-staff member of the college."
It's just acting, everyone can say it differently.
"I see. Brother Lin Chuan is really grateful. It's a pity that I missed such a talent. It's really a pity for me!"
Xue Qinghe sighed helplessly, feeling regretful from the bottom of his heart.
Although I don't know whether what the other party said is true or not, but now that it has come to this, I can't force him to repay the favor of saving my life, right?
If I really do that, it will not be in line with the character that Xue Qinghe has created before.
It doesn't matter. There is a long way to go. Tianshui College and the Shui family behind it do not currently belong to the Tiandou Empire. If the Shui family can be won over, Lin Chuan will naturally not be able to escape. Now that he has established a good relationship with Xue Qinghe as himself, it will become easier to win him over in the future.
However, it is probably certain that Dugu Yan's sudden transfer to Tianshui College may also be related to the young man in front of him.
