155. I have to look back (10,000 words in this chapter)(1/5)
At this moment, Jiang Fan looked around him with a slightly dazed look.
"Was I not in this place just now?"
In front of him was a magnificent hall that looked magnificent. The people around him were dressed in beautiful clothes. At first glance, they looked like they were either rich or noble.
"Why are Jiang Fan still standing there dumbfounded? The auction will start soon. If we don't come in, we will be late!"
"Auction?"
Jiang Fan still couldn't turn around. He just subconsciously felt that the words "auction" seemed to have happened a long time ago.
"Jiang Fan, come here quickly!"
Lin Xiner waved to Jiang Fan.
"Did you travel for too long and feel a little tired now?"
Wang Wen walked over step by step, with a kind smile on his face, as if he was worried about motion sickness.
"Maybe..."
Jiang Fan stood there and thought for a long time, but he still couldn't remember what he did before arriving at the auction house.
"But it doesn't matter. I just need to take a break by myself. Let's go to the hall."
Jiang Fan shook his head gently. Since he could no longer remember these things, he stopped thinking about them and concentrated on preparing for the auction that was waiting for him.
He remembered that everyone was looking forward to this auction.
"...The following item is an unknown ore from the wild. After many tests by our experts, we found that it can achieve more than 100 kinds of effects..."
On the booth next to the auctioneer, there was a strange-looking stone. Jiang Fan subconsciously felt that he had seen it before, or even picked it up.
"I remember there seemed to be fragments of the Heart of the Earth on it..."
Jiang Fan spoke softly subconsciously, but froze on the spot after finishing speaking.
"The Heart of the Earth Fragment...what is that? Why do I suddenly think of this?"
Jiang Fan looked at the other people in the hall, who seemed to have little interest in the stone in front of them.
Lao Hei and Dali were squatting at the coffee table eating, while Shamanman was just lying on the sofa, using a mobile terminal to watch the next auction items.
Lin Xiner and Wang Wen seemed to be studying the next treasures of heaven and earth on the auction list.
"Should I bid at this time?"
The auctioneer below has shouted several times, but no one has bid.
Jiang Fan just subconsciously felt that he should call out the auction price at this time. But he opened his mouth, but still did not speak.
When Jiang Fan came back to his senses, the auction item had been replaced on the stage below.
"The next item is..."
The auctioneer seemed to have a smile on his face, as if he was very satisfied with the price of the previous lot, and it seemed that the quality of the current lot was good enough.
Wang Wen smiled: "Jiang Fan, why did you take a picture of that useless stone?"
"Maybe he has a special hobby?"
Lao Hei said to Wang Wen while eating grapes.
"What is a hobby? If you couldn't speak, you would just squat and eat."
Shamanman rolled her eyes at Lao Hei and said with a disgusted expression.
“What’s wrong with people taking so many credits at once and buying something they’re interested in?”
"That's true, that's true."
Lao Hei smiled apologetically, as if he knew that he was speechless, and immediately continued to eat with Dali.
"You said I photographed the stone?"
Jiang Fan's expression looked a little confused, but it was as if the others didn't see this expression and were still chatting and laughing.
"It's not because you want to buy so many things that you even forgot to buy something, right?"
Dali was eating something in his mouth, with an envious expression on his face.
"Ah...this..."
Jiang Fan scratched his head and hurriedly waved his hands to deny it, but the doubts in his heart became deeper.
He was obviously standing here, why didn't he remember the scene of the auction of the lost hammer?
Could it be that at the moment when the weight fell, I happened to be distracted?
The more Jiang Fan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, but he could never find the problem.
"Oh? The auction house has already sent the thing over. Can Jiang Fan demonstrate it? What do you like about this thing when you take it?"
The moment the VIP room was pushed away, the staff at the auction house used a trolley to bring up the stone that Jiang Fan had just bought.
"Does this auction house provide door-to-door service?"
Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment. He hadn't even gone to give the money, so why were the things delivered directly to him?
"How fresh is it?" Shamanman said with a smile, "You have the Tianfeng Pavilion Black Gold Card in your hand. Even for this order, you don't have to pay for it."
Jiang Fan:????
"Of course, once you record the account as a current student, it is likely to affect the subsequent use of the black gold card."
Wang Wen added that at this moment, everyone except Jiang Fan was already surrounding the ore, and the circle they surrounded just left a gap for Jiang Fan.
This seemed to be a psychological suggestion, and Jiang Fan stepped forward on time.
"What do you like about this thing? It's ugly."
The relationship between everyone is already very good, and Lao Hei no longer hides his dislike at this moment.
"Although the ore introduced by the auctioneer has more than 100 uses, the more uses it has, the more rubbish it becomes. You can't really buy it just because you think it's fun, right?"
Shamanman glared at Lao Hei, and then added.
Jiang Fan: "......"
"It's really fun. Anyway, I have more than 10,000 credits, so I won't spend too much money to buy this ore."
Everyone:...
The atmosphere in the VIP hall suddenly cooled down, and everyone's expressions looked a little strange.
But Jiang Fan has so many credits, so it is not wrong to do so.
Even when they get a lot of credits at once, they will splurge a little and buy things that others think are worthless.
"If there's nothing else, I'll just watch the auction later."
Jiang Fan smiled at everyone, then turned and walked towards the huge floor-to-ceiling window, seeming to be very interested in the next auction.
"There seem to be a lot of impurities in this ore, but the solidified parts are also very concentrated. Maybe if you buy it and break it open, you can get a lot of useful ore."
"That's right. I can see it being cut from here."
"It's necessary to have a knife like this."
"No, no, no, if you cut it like that, it will be too big and it will cause problems easily."
After a short period of silence, the atmosphere in the VIP room seemed to become more lively.
"Jiang Fan?"
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Fan did not look back, his eyes were still on the auctioneer below.
"I'll break off your ore and piece it together. There won't be any problem, right?"
Shamanman looked embarrassed, and in her hand was a piece of ore that had been broken into several pieces.
"It's okay. I bought it for fun anyway. Just leave a small piece for me to reduce my stress later."
Jiang Fan glanced back subconsciously. When he saw the ore in Shamanman's hand, he was also a little surprised, but it didn't show on his face.
"That's okay, that's okay."
Shamanman let out a long sigh of relief, as if she was afraid that Jiang Fan would seek compensation from her.
After all, she was the one who did something wrong. Even if Jiang Fan asked her for compensation, Shamanman had nothing to say.
The sound of clicking was heard all of a sudden.
The whole piece of ore was like tofu dregs, crushed to pieces by everyone in a very short period of time.
However, a few people followed Jiang Fan's instructions and finally left a small piece for him.
It's just that the last remaining piece of ore looks ordinary. At a glance, you can tell that it is full of impurities.
"Jiang Fan...accidentally crushed the entire ore."
Lin Xiner had an embarrassed look on her face, as if she was addicted to crushing the ore. Once she started crushing the ore, she couldn't stop.
To be continued...
