Having money is impressive!

  The auction house adopted a black box mode, setting up countless private rooms, and the entire hall was only illuminated by the exhibition platform. The rest of the place was pitch black, and you couldn't see your fingers when you stretched out your hand. All guests were uniformly distributed with large masks to cover their faces, etc., all of which were preventive measures taken to prevent conflicts between the navy, pirates, wealthy merchants, and dignitaries.

  Shen Bao, Xiao Luoli, Long Ma and Kuro Kasu opened a private room together. Now that they have a large sum of money on them, they are filled with confidence. Christina looks even more spirited and sharp, with an adorable look as if she's sharpening her knife.

  "The fifth day auction meeting is now starting. Please look at the first item for sale." The suit-and-tie-clad auctioneer was very efficient, with concise language, and directly began the auction activity.

  "Seven-Colored Pearl Shell. This palm-sized pearl shell is extremely magical, and all you need to do is place it in the depths of the ocean every morning at sunrise, and by noon when the sun is high, it will spit out a glass ball-sized colored pearl. What's even more interesting is that the color of the pearl spat out each day is different. On Monday, it spits out red pearls, on Tuesday orange pearls, Wednesday yellow pearls, Thursday green pearls, Friday blue pearls, Saturday cyan pearls, and Sunday purple pearls. Auction price: 10 million Berries."

  Normally, the first item and last two items of an auction are particularly exquisite. This seven-colored pearl shell can be said to be a rare treasure in the world. Each colored pearl produced is a rare item. The only drawback is that the location and time for producing pearls are a bit demanding, requiring the deep sea far from land.

  Those who can often be on the sea, except for peddlers, are either pirates or navies. However, most merchants are cautious and will not carry such heavy treasures with them; Pirates and navies would not buy such a luxurious but useless treasure either. Only some island owners, such as the extremely rich and powerful, may not care about this money and have the energy to arrange people to earn pearls. So when the auction started, most of the voices that shouted out were arrogant female voices.

  "15 million Baht."

  "20 million Baht."

  "30 million Baht."

  "35 million Baht."

  The price was quoted here, and the whole scene fell silent. After all, this price has already reached the bottom line of those beautiful and showy noblewomen who love beauty and love to show off.

  "80 million Belly!" Shěn Bǎo suddenly let out a loud roar, which frightened the delicate hearts of those noble ladies and young misses in the darkness.

  The originally quiet hall suddenly came to life. The whispers of countless people merged into streams of rustling sounds.

  "Which uncouth nouveau riche is this, scaring me half to death?"

  "This isn't stupid, suddenly rising to 80 million Belly."

  "Not an idiot, just too much money with nowhere to spend."

  "Either they're here to show off their wealth, humph, I've seen many people like that."

  ……

  "Eight million baht for the first time, eight million baht for the second time, eight million baht for the third time - sold! This seven-color pearl shell was won by Mr. 9527." The auctioneer smiled and waved his hand, and immediately a servant took down the seven-color pearl shell and put up the second item for bidding.

  "The second item up for auction is the Kin'dou Cloud Tobacco Seedling. This plant can propagate on a large scale as long as there's water, and it can be cultivated in areas with high humidity, not only making the air dry but also producing the legendary Kin'dou Cloud Tobacco every year. Those familiar with Kin'dou Cloud Tobacco know that cigars made from this tobacco give you an ethereal feeling, like floating on clouds, with each puff. Starting bid is 50 million Berries."

  This item is different from the first one, mainly targeting those powerful and wealthy landowners and island owners. Any type of tobacco seed can be developed into a specialty on the island, and if there is also a safe and unobstructed shipping route, the annual profit will be a huge fortune in billions. Therefore, this auction will be much more intense than the last one.

  "55 million Baht."

  ……

  "75 million Baht."

  "80 million Belly!"

  ……

  "95 million Baht!"

  "100 million Belly!!"

  The scene gradually calmed down again, the tobacco seedlings were good, but the conditions that could turn them into economic benefits were too harsh, 100 million Bellis was already the bottom line of endurance.

  Just then, a familiar roar echoed through the quiet hall again: "I'll give 1.5 billion Berries!" - Of course, it was Shanks once more.

  "Oh no, it's him again!"

  "This nouveau riche!"

  "No wonder he's so rich, it turns out he's a big landlord."

  Under everyone's whispers, the Jian Dou Yun Yan Cao Miao also fell into Mr. 9527 - Shén Bǎo's bag.

  "And now, the third item up for auction. This is a piece of naval equipment - the Miracle Bomb Necklace. This platinum cross-shaped necklace is said to have been worn by any gunner who has ever achieved a miracle. It seems to greatly increase the gunner's luck value, turning every unexpected event in sea battles into a smile from the goddess of victory. Starting price: 300 million Beri, let the bidding begin!"

  Miracle Bomb Necklace, Exquisite Fire Yao's Secret Book, and Arrow Piercing the Devil are known as the Artillery Master Assistant Three-piece Set. Along with Napoleon's Royal Cannon, Patton's Bronze Ice Cannon, Rommel's Rocket-Propelled Cannon, and Hitler's Lightning-Fast Cannon, they are collectively referred to as the Artillery King Suite. Any one of these items is a treasured object that master gunners dream of and think about day and night.

  So, when the Miracle Bomb Necklace appeared, countless dark shooters widened their eyes, bursting out with wolf-like green light. They were about to raise the price when a despicable voice suddenly descended from the sky again - "I'll give 90 million Berries!"

  In an instant, the dark green glow of gluttony transformed into a bright red glow of fury. The debt burden that could be borne, even at a low price of 300 million, was still quite severe for most gunners who had spent their lives tossing about on the sea.

  "How hateful! I can't afford it!" Half of the gunners shouted in their hearts.

  The other half of the gunners, however, were tossed between hope and despair, and gave birth to a desire to tear 9527 alive!

  "You think you're impressive just because you have money now? Showing off like that!"

  "Damn it, I'm going to kill this 9527!"

  "I'm out of here, I don't want to play anymore! Even if you have money, it's not worth playing with people like this!"

  At this time, in a certain box.

  "Bang!" A priceless ceramic vase worth millions of Bellis was smashed into countless pieces. A young man dressed in luxurious attire thundered: "Housekeeper, investigate! I must find out who dared to touch my belongings, and when I do, I'll have him torn limb from limb!"

  The housekeeper retreated with a mixture of fear and trepidation, but in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness for this voice. "This 9526 is truly a tragic figure, flaunting his meager wealth, yet recklessly snatching away the young master's beloved treasure. Doesn't he know that our Smith young master is the greatest cannon collector in the southern seas? Doesn't he know that collecting cannon gloves is the young master's lifelong dream? Hmm... it seems they really don't know."
