Chapter 127 Auction. Interval Part 1
"This is a long sword made by Xiti craftsmen. It is not only tough, but also extremely sharp..."
Although on the auction list, there will be a brief introduction for each auctioned collection, but it is far from the detailed introduction of the old housekeeper at the moment. (starting)
At least, including Dean, it was the first time they knew that this long sword came from Xiti.
And when the long sword was brought to the auction stage by the two servants of the Marquis, Dean frowned slightly - because the style and style of this sword was really not like Xiti's long sword.
In fact, whether it is Xiti, Gaosai, or Jade, every country has its own style of swordsmanship——
Xiti's swordsmanship is sharp, yet adaptable.
Gao Sai's swordsmanship is the kind of thick and heavy, overwhelming people with force.
And Jade's swordsmanship is completely dexterous and good at dodging.
Under this different style, each country has different definitions and preferences for long swords; Xiti's long sword is narrow and sharp, requiring special skills to use, while Gao Sai's long sword is wide Thick and heavy, it looks like a two-handed giant sword, while Jade's long sword tends to be more ordinary long sword specifications, and there are no more requirements.
As for Bai Ye?
It is really impossible to generalize the country where thousands of swordsmanship and martial arts schools are passed down.
And the long sword that is being auctioned in front of him is narrow and long, but it is wide enough. Although the blade is slightly thinner, it is still like Gao Sai's long sword, more than Xiti.
"Dean, do you have a lot of research on Xiti? Can you see the peculiarity of this long sword?"
The Marquis of Vauban, who was sitting in front, turned his head slightly to look at the frowning Dean.
"It's just my love for weapons... This long sword looks more like Gao Sai. It's not Xiti's!"
Of course Dean wouldn't tell the truth. but. What he said was not a lie, especially the last sentence, but a very considerable evaluation - Dean never concealed his hobby of collecting weapons and armor.
"This long sword itself was made by the Xiti craftsman for the Gaosai people, but..."
nodding,
The Marquis of Vauban didn't finish his words, and looked at Dean again, obviously. There is a hint of school exams in this.
"Is it too light?"
Dean replied humbly.
"That's right!"
The Marquis of Vauban smiled, no doubt, satisfied with Dean's answer.
On the other hand, Baron Jenner, who had been thinking hard for a long time, looked at Dean angrily, as if he would not show it if he didn't do this, and he was about to think of it soon—even if he gave this idiot Baron In one day, he would never understand the difference between the long swords of Fei Cui, Xiti, and Gao Sai, but he had to show such an expression on his face.
Otherwise, how can you show your 'knowledge'?
Of course. When Dean glanced over, the idiot baron immediately shrank his neck. Put on a look of fear.
And this kind of change naturally disgusted the lady of Baron Till's family and the Baron Jando beside him, especially the meticulous Baron Jando who inherited the knight's inheritance.
In fact, if it were not in the hall of the Marquis of Vauban, the Baron Cando would not even stay with such a shameless and cowardly guy next to him.
Because, in the eyes of Baron Zandou, the other party is a disgrace to the nobility.
Correspondingly, Dean, who is humble, courteous and well-informed, gained the favor of Baron Jando, especially when he learned that the complete snow bear skin was made by Dean, Baron Jando He regards Dean as a real nobleman—not only is he humble and knowledgeable, but also possesses force and bravery beyond ordinary people.
Such actions are obviously in line with Baron Zandou's perception of nobles.
Therefore, when he met Dean's gaze, the Baron Zandou nodded in response. Although the serious expression on his face remained, it already represented his friendliness.
And Dean naturally responded with a smile.
When Dean withdrew his gaze and looked at the auction table again, the long sword with a reserve price of 50 Kimptons had already risen to 100 Kimptons.
And such a price made the young lady of Baron Till's family, who was eager to try beside Dean, die down.
Obviously, this lady also has a considerable love for weapons and armor.
However, Tyre's finances did not allow her to act recklessly like this.
"Wise choice!"
Dean said in his heart.
That long, narrow and broad sword seems to require special skills to use. If you spend hundreds of Kimptons just for a collection that cannot be used, it is obviously a waste, especially This is even more so for Tyrell, which is financially strained.
Dean wouldn't say so, though.
He is very clear that with the current state of him and this lady, once he utters such words, it will definitely be considered provocative, sarcastic, and even counterproductive.
A few days of getting along is enough for Dean to have a thorough understanding of this young lady—sometimes she has the qualities of an heir to a territory, but sometimes she has the heart of a little girl.
Of course, there is also the appearance of a split personality.
Regarding this, Dean shrugged silently - Dean didn't know what kind of experience made the other party look like this, but he was very glad that his Leni was not like this.
And when Dean was comparing the baron's lady with his lover, the 'Citi' long sword was sold for 120 Kimptons, and was taken into the hands of a knight from another county; obviously, Seeing that the other party got the long sword, he couldn't wait to dance two sword flowers, and Dean knew that the other party would never put this long sword in the storage room.
This is a well-deserved buyer.
Dean commented, and some well-meaning people also smiled at the knight. Undoubtedly, they also think that being able to use a long sword is far better than keeping a long sword in the storage room.
Of course, this is just a prelude——
Just like the heat at the beginning of any game, the real protagonist is always behind.
When the processed snow bear skin that belonged to Dean appeared on the table, the old butler had just quoted a reserve price of 200 Kimptons, and immediately, the people present began to raise their hands one after another.
Especially those men who come with their female companions can't wait.
As for the reason?
That is naturally clear at a glance.
Obviously, the ladies in the entire Emerald Kingdom would not mind owning a coat made of snow bear fur, and would greatly enjoy the envious looks from other ladies.
And at any time, items that can attract the envy and jealous eyes of other women are worthy of any lady's madness.
It seems that now, in less than two minutes, the price of snow bear skins has doubled——
"Four hundred Kimptons!!"
The lady of the baron's family covered her mouth and whispered softly.
Then, the next moment, the young lady of the baron's family looked at Dean, her eyes were flowing like autumn water on the lake, with a gleam of light and ripples.
"This is the Marquis's auction, not a direct sale... Moreover, the reason why the snow bear skins have such a high value is because they are very rare!"
Facing the expectations of Miss Baroness, Dean, who absolutely did not want to have a bear hunting task in his future work, explained in a low voice.
"Having a head every year is also very good!"
The lady of the baron's family obviously did not give up, but her tone became a little looser.
Although for Tyrell, who is financially tight, it is definitely a relief if there are an extra 400 Kimptons a year, but, as Dean said, such a thing is a special case and cannot be done. For a regular budget, not to mention the danger of snow bears, it is even more prohibitive.
However, at the next moment, the ensuing quotation made the baroness lady instantly firm up——
"Four hundred and five!"
"five hundred!"
"Seven hundred!"
The offer directly exceeding two hundred Kimptons made the entire hall quiet, and at the same time, the other party became the final winner of the snow bear skin—the other party's offer showed a feeling that it was bound to win, and The quotation at this moment is undoubtedly beyond the affordability of most people.
After all, this is just a snow bear skin, not a magic weapon.
Does it cost a thousand Kimptons for a snow bear skin?
What a joke.
However, the man who got the snow bear skin didn't care at all, especially when the female companion next to him directly sent a sweet kiss, the man seemed to be in high spirits.
Obviously, he definitely thinks it's worth the money.
"Dean, as a man, you should learn from that gentleman, at least in your attitude towards women!"
The lady of the baron's family watched the man who took the picture of the snow bear's skin.
"That's love, not devotion!"
Dean shrugged, signaling the difference.
"Then, if we..."
The young lady of the Baron's family blushed suddenly.
"I have a lover!"
Dean said very bluntly - he didn't want to be given any 'name' because of Kimpton, even if the other party showed quite excellent qualities.
The lady from the baron's family looked at Dean in surprise—it wasn't because she was rejected, in fact, she was already prepared for this before she spoke again.
After all, after a few days of getting along, not only did Dean get to know her, but this lady also got to know Dean.
Therefore, if she was rejected, the lady would not be surprised at all.
Even, this itself is within the scope of her consideration.
However, the reason for Dean's refusal surprised the young lady, and directly disrupted her subsequent words.
"Miss Lily, if you don't mind..."
"Go away!"
Looking at the lady of Baron Till's family who was in a daze, the Baron Jayle approached again; however, he was naturally ashamed.
