The venue used for the extravaganza this time was a circular venue, which looked huge at first glance. Except for the main auction stage that was specially opened in the middle, the surrounding open-air area was filled with densely packed seats. At first glance, it was full of people, and it looked like there were no empty seats. It feels like it can fit most of the people on the planet, not counting the people in the boxes on the upper floor.
Private rooms are generally reserved for long-term VIPs of Sihai Trading Company. Their airtightness and comfort are much better than open-air seats.
"What exactly is being auctioned this time that has attracted so many people to come here?" Jiang Hui joined in the fun through the window, and walked back until his eyes almost hurt.
Compared to someone like her who was purely here to gain experience, Clarence and Zhou Xiuwen seemed much calmer, and they probably had participated in such activities in the past.
“Didn’t you say it?” Zhou Xiuwen glanced at Clarence inexplicably upon hearing this.
"I came here on short notice, so I don't know much." Clarence said softly.
Zhou Xiuwen:
Wow, two guys who don’t know anything yet dare to join in the fun.
“I really don’t know what to say about you. No wonder I’m so arrogant to come here, you two. At least bring a few more capable people out.” He also said that these two people are the safest among his friends. You two are usually very clear-minded, so why are you so reckless in this matter?
Did they forget that last time the five of them made an appointment to watch the Mecha Open, but they were almost cheated? The current situation is so chaotic, and it’s hard to predict what will happen at the auction, which is a mixed bag of good and bad.
Looking at his friends who were showing more and more disapproval, Clarence had to speak out to prove that he was not just a foolish follower to watch the fun: "Originally it was my father who came, but he received a temporary emergency from the ruling government. The summons informed him that he would not be able to leave Sui Xingyuan for the next week. "
And his mother, Admiral Loton, and his three brothers and sisters were also caught on the HG13 defense line in time. At this time, they were determined to be unable to escape. If you have time, the rest of the family may not be of the same mind as theirs. So after counting, this kid Clarence is actually the only one in his family who can find time to go out.
Mr. Clarence, the head of the family, also expressed that he had no choice but to "spur" his youngest son to attend dangerous occasions. He was bombarded by his wife and daughter in turn. Even the elder who had always listened to him as a father The son also turned against him and complained about his father putting his younger brother in the storm.
But Stephen Clarence insisted on this approach in the end. He is a father, but he is also the head of a clan. He has ups and downs in officialdom, and people's hearts are at his mercy. He knows better than anyone else that rights, responsibilities, abilities and obligations go hand in hand.
He cherishes his young son and does not want him to be exposed to wind and rain, but he is even more unwilling for him to pay the price for his immaturity and innocence in a place that he cannot see.
As a direct descendant of the Clarence family, he has the obligation to participate in family affairs and decision-making. This is a responsibility that he cannot avoid.
Rather than being forced by the world's ups and downs to put things on the shelf, Stephen preferred to teach in person. Well, after clearly conveying this idea, Stephen was "cleaned up" by his protective wife and children.
Then the result of reluctantly reaching a consensus is this. Of course, Clarence cannot really come alone.
In fact, Stephen arranged a group of followers for his son, but when they rushed over, they encountered a common problem in interstellar jumps. The main channel was restricted and blocked, and they were delayed. Anyway, they couldn't make it to today's auction. meeting.
But he couldn't really let his youngest son take the risk. Therefore, some cronies of the Clarence family were mobilized nearby. These people were arranged near the box. However, they were only temporary callers after all, so Stephen did not arrange for them to meet the children, so that they could always pay attention to Clarence. As soon as there is an issue with Si's safety, he will immediately take action to protect him. Not only that, he also asked his old friends who had a good relationship with him to take care of the children. They will also participate in the auction this time.
In short, Clarence is alone now. The number of people watching and protecting him in the dark may not be much less than those following Zhou Xiuwen.
In addition, the items auctioned in this auction are valuable, and there are many parties involved. With so many people, a laser cannon can kill a large area. If something goes wrong, the impact will not be comparable to the impact of the last open competition.
So not only the forces participating in the auction are afraid, but also the trading houses from all over the world. They are all tense and have people from all sides. The venue will be kept airtight and no accidents will be allowed. .
Therefore, although there are many disturbances and undercurrents in the auction, safety can still be guaranteed. It's not too outrageous for Stephen to let his children attend the auction alone. At best, it can only be said to be unreliable.
"So those people who entered the box next door are also from your family?" No wonder when the three of them walked over, the person next door happened to also go in. When the group saw Clarence from a distance, they nodded to him. At that time, Jiang Hui was still thinking that the Clarence family was worthy of being a famous and noble family, but they had only been here for a short time, and they were meeting old acquaintances.
Clarence nodded. He recognized those few, they seemed to be the foreign business deacons of the Clarence family outside the central star area. Their activity area was not on the Luo Yue Star. It was probably Stephen who temporarily transferred them to look after him.
Is it so thorough? Jiang Hui was a little stunned when he heard this. She was from an ordinary background, had no elders around her to advise her, and was not aware of the rules of the upper class. She really thought that Clarence came alone. Turns out it's not.
I guess every time he recovers his light brain on the road, he is responding to his father's arrangement.
Alas, Jiang Hui couldn't help feeling that the living environment of her friends was also a little complicated. They were surrounded by rules and regulations, and even making a choice required various considerations.
But everyone has their own life, and even she herself is gradually integrating into the new network in the days and nights of this new world.
Jiang Hui, Clarence, and the others had discussed this auction before, and felt that the water was too deep for "children" like them to venture into, but unexpectedly they came anyway. At this time, there are insiders coming, and they naturally want to find out the inside story.
Compared to Jiang Hui who knows nothing and Clarence who rushes to the shelves, Zhou Xiuwen clearly knows the inside story.
Jiang Hui and the others now finally know why Sihai Trading Company dared to risk the disapproval of the world to hold the auction again, and why so many forces endorsed it. This is because Sihai Trading Company now has something they all want. something.
And this thing cannot even be priced normally, and can only meet the transaction needs of all parties through auction bidding.
"Planet?"
