Mysterious Tribulation

not far away.

As Aaron took off the ‘Shadow Ring’ from his right hand, he muttered to himself: “Cut leeks also have a realm...Now, I can let mature leeks cut themselves, haha...”

"If Scarface knew that the backer he was looking for was the one who robbed him twice, would he have a direct mental breakdown?"

He looked at the iron black ring on his hand, feeling the consumption of spirituality and the sense of danger brought by the darkness around him, and tossed a coin.

After a while, Aaron shook his head and stared at the ring on his hand: "I'm so courageous... I will threaten it with a spirit body another day to see if it can be domesticated..."

He felt a little risk of being ‘secret’ just now, which undoubtedly came from the backlash of the tricks!

…

August 20th, Thursday morning.

Aaron wore a white shirt, a black vest, a dark brown trench coat, a domed silk top hat, shiny leather shoes, and a long slender cane inlaid with white crystals. He left while the maid Silvia bowed and sent off. The residence, boarded a carriage.

Green Forest City is not too hot all year round, but it is very cold in winter, so that the former Green Forest nobles had to wrap up thick fur coats.

"Set off!"

After Aaron sat down, the carriage immediately started and drove slowly in the direction of Oguf Auction House.

Today, it happens to be the auction date for that batch of Fabry relics.

Aaron's expression was deep, staring at his hands, and he thought to himself: The spirituality of ‘Yao’ has reached its limit again, and he must find the spiritual materials he needs as soon as possible and be promoted to the ‘Muguang Man’...’

If you can't get promoted, it doesn't make sense to absorb more spirituality.

For ordinary Extraordinaries, if they enter the mysterious world without relying on secret associations and other organizations, perhaps just collecting the knowledge of advancement can hold them for several years, ten years, or even a lifetime. time.

…

Ogufu Auction House is located at No. 17, Glamorgan District, one of the most secure areas in Green Forest, not far from the General Police Station.

It is a wood and stone building with a long history, with a huge lawn and fountain set up in front of the main entrance.

At this time, the carriages stopped, and the ladies on it dressed up as if they were attending a ball, greeted each other politely, and walked into the venue.

When Aaron got out of the carriage, his eyes swept slightly, and he saw many acquaintances.

History professor Clark Das and his apprentice Bruce Field... Company director William Mark... The last dance partner, the bookish Liliad Doren with glasses... And Chris Toya Priest of the Holy Spirit.

People did not specifically divide, but naturally formed different circles.

Aaron nodded at Clark and blended smoothly into William Mark's circle.

"Our travellers are also interested in antiques?"

William Mark joked.

"Yes, I am very fascinated by that period of history." Aaron admitted with a smile, it was nothing.

"Those precious cultural relics and artworks not only have high historical and artistic value, but also preserve their value and are a good choice for investment..."

Chris Toya next to him opened his mouth and had a very kind attitude towards Aaron, the golden master. He actively invited: "We have a box on the second floor. Do we want to be together?"

"No, no...I would rather experience the atmosphere in the lobby."

Aaron smiled and shook his head. Then he saw a carriage with a low-key and luxurious decoration, and a noble badge imprinted, slowly docking, and coming down from above, a medium-sized man with a decent smile and a nice little chin Bearded male in thirties.

"It's Lord Lake!"

The people around voluntarily stepped aside, and some businessmen and senior government employees couldn't help but step forward to talk.

Suddenly, the Lord Lake with his female companion became the focus of the audience.

"I heard that there are also many nobles' shares in the Oguf Auction House..."

William Mark said quietly, not knowing whether it was envy or jealousy: "With so many high-class people coming, the auction will be fierce..."

From his words, Aaron could hear the sour taste.

Once the big businessmen of this era become famous, they will often immediately transform, buy land, support charity, so as to gain a good reputation and enter the ‘real’ upper class society.

Then, they would often bribe members of parliament and nobles at any cost, hoping to obtain a title and improve their social status.

At the same time, they are also trying their best to marry aristocrats. In front of a truly ancient aristocrat, even rich businessmen often have a subtle sense of inferiority.

'It is said that in the House of Lords and Commons, the House of Lords controlled by the nobles is boring, but the House of Commons is always in full swing due to various issues. However, the members of the House of Commons from different strata are actually supported and controlled by the nobles... But now, with There are more and more nobles in debt, and they have to let go of some of their political rights. Most of the members of the House of Commons are held by wealthy people. Although they are still puppets of the nobles at this time, they are gradually awakening the consciousness of the bourgeoisie and secretly eroding the kingdom. that power…'

‘If they are in a normal world, then they are very likely to succeed. This is the torrent of history... But after adding extraordinary factors, the future is a fog...’

Aaron watched this scene, his thoughts ebb and flow.

He followed the rest of the crowd, walked onto the red carpet, and entered the Oguf auction house.

The huge auction hall can accommodate hundreds of men and women dancing at the same time without being crowded. The dome depicting the religious oil paintings of the Holy Spirit is hung with bright crystal chandeliers, exuding bright brilliance.

"It's actually an electric light?"

Aaron exclaimed. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com now uses gas street lamps and kerosene lamps in most parts of the kingdom. Although electric lamps and wires have been invented, the filament life is too short. There are also many problems with generators. Novelty plaything.

Oguf Auction House uses this to reflect the trend and its own strength.

The auction room is divided into two floors. On the first floor, there are many round tables. Clark and Bruce occupy one table. Aaron walked over and sat down on the side.

The second floor is divided by many boxes, and there are special price-selling agents, which is very decent.

When everyone was seated, the electric lights around dimmed, and searchlights hit the auction stage, focusing on a host wearing a luxurious dress and glasses.

"Good day, Aaron..."

Clark nodded at Aaron, and Bruce next to him kept winking.

"Unexpectedly you will come..."

Clark sighed with a smile, looked around, and lowered his voice: "This batch of auctioned cultural relics is likely to have been inspected by the Bureau of Investigation more than once, especially books..."
