Chapter 8 Heaven Dou Auction
After dinner, Niu Jinfeng led Yang Podi to the Tiandou Auction House.
Upon arriving at the auction venue, a massive circular building came into view, somewhat resembling a large-scale sports stadium in later times. The auction venue was nearly 500 meters in diameter and over 80 meters high at its highest point. It was entirely white, appearing both magnificent and solemn.
Standing at the entrance of the auction house were four beautiful young women. All four had pretty faces and tall figures, each standing at 1.75 meters. They wore long dresses that showed off their exquisite curves, and judging from their faces, they were all under 20 years old.
Moreover, their movements were very efficient yet elegant, clearly the result of long-term training.
One of the girls approached Yang Podi and his companion, bowing slightly: "Gentlemen, do you need any help?"
Niu Jinfeng produced a black card and handed it to the girl who had come to her. The card had pictures of the auction on it.
The girl examined the card carefully for a moment, then immediately handed it back to Niu Jinfeng: "Dear Black Card member, welcome to our auction house. Would you like to go to the main hall or directly to a private room?"
"Let's go to a private room. Arrange a private room for me."
"Yes, esteemed Black Card member. Please follow me."
Without saying a word, the girl led Niu Jinfeng and Yang Podi directly into the auction house.
Stepping into the auction hall, there was no sense of opulent grandeur. The floor was milky-white marble, and the walls were decorated with various reliefs, though the colors on the reliefs were minimal. It appeared simple, bright, and extremely elegant, reflecting the auction hall's high-class status. The young woman leading the way was very professional; she would stop every ten steps or so to gesture for us to proceed, providing precise directions.
Of course, there were also many guards along the way, presumably to maintain order at the scene and to prevent fights or robberies from happening.
The three soon arrived at a private room. The girl said, "The most distinguished black card members, this is the private room arranged for you. Please wait a moment, the auction is about to begin."
With Niu Jinfeng nodding, the girl left the private room.
Yang Podi carefully examined the private room. The interior was decorated very simply, with only eight seats. Each seat had a glass panel in front of it, facing the center of the auction hall, allowing a clear view of the entire venue. Obviously, these glass panels were one-sided, making it impossible to observe the situation inside the private room from the outside.
Looking out from the private room, the entire auction venue was divided into five sections. The three rows closest to the stage were red, radiating outwards in black, purple, yellow, and white. Each section was divided into private rooms and seats, presumably chosen according to personal preference.
A short while later, a waiter knocked on the door, and a beautiful waitress came in and served them tea and snacks.
Through Yang Podi's observation, all the waitresses in the auction house were women, about the same height as the four at the entrance, but with more voluptuous figures and more revealing clothing, with glimpses of their cleavage visible on their chests and skirts.
"Mom, how did you get a black card from the auction house?"
"Son, who do you think I am? How come I don't even have a black card? I've just been coming less often lately, so I haven't applied for a red card. Your grandfather even has a red card."
Yang Podi ignored his mother's words and instead carefully observed the entire venue. Just as Ning Fengzhi described in the original novel, the beautiful waitresses had somewhat indifferent expressions, and one could even say that their eyes were a little wooden. According to Ning Fengzhi himself, these beauties had lost their souls and could only be manipulated by others.
When Yang Podi first heard these words in his previous life, although he found them reasonable, something still felt off. The second time he heard them, he thought they were complete fallacy. If a person doesn't even have a body, what's the point of having a soul? These people may look blank now, but if they were taken back and nurtured, who dares say they couldn't return to normal? What they lack is hope and freedom. Soon, the auction officially began. The auctioneer was a sexy beauty in a red dress, stunning in height, looks, and figure. Her eloquence was even more outstanding; her ability to evoke emotion and control the atmosphere far surpassed any of the so-called excellent hosts he had seen in his previous life.
As the auction gradually began, items were displayed one by one on the central auction stage, while a large screen at the top magnified the entire auction, allowing everyone present to clearly see the items from all angles.
The host introduced the origin, function and value of the auction item in detail, even with some sensational words, and then gave a starting price. People at the scene bid according to their understanding of the product.
In short, the scene was very noisy. Some people were discussing the actual value of the products, some regretted not bringing enough gold soul coins, and many more were discussing the auction prices of the items.
The products at the meeting were diverse, ranging in value from inexpensive items like ancient swords and antiques to more expensive items such as soul tools, aged herbs, and even a cat-eared girl, just like in the original story. Of course, there were also some precious metals.
Suddenly something very interesting appeared.
The woman in red began introducing the product: "Distinguished guests, the next item to be auctioned is a very rare treasure."
On the auction table was a fist-sized black object with fine lines on it, resembling a gel.
"As you can see, the item up for auction is a piece of whale glue, and it's a piece of whale glue that's been around for ten thousand years. For men who need it, it's a great tonic that can help them regain their virility."
As soon as these words were spoken, many men in the audience erupted in excitement.
"Distinguished guests, this piece of ancient whale glue, with a starting bid of 1 gold soul coins, is now up for auction."
"11,000 gold soul coins."
"Twelve thousand gold soul coins."
……
Soon the price of this whale glue reached 30,000 gold soul coins.
"Mom, quickly take a picture of this whale gel."
Niu Jinfeng looked at Yang Podi with a puzzled expression: "You're just a kid, do you know what the purpose of whale glue is?"
"Mom, I've been reading a lot of books lately, and whale glue might have other uses. Buy it for Dad; it'll definitely be very useful."
Although Niu Jinfeng hesitated for a moment, she finally couldn't resist her son's request and directly auctioned off the whale glue for 50,000 gold soul coins.
The scene fell silent. This seemed to be the first time a woman had auctioned off whale glue. Was her husband impotent?
Niu Jinfeng was speechless. What kind of woman was she, with her son, coming here to auction whale glue? If others knew, they would laugh themselves to death.
