Night! Pu Region Terminal!
It was very bustling here; after all, the Pu Region didn't have much land area, so every place needed to be developed reasonably.
Therefore, places like the Pu Region Terminal were developed more thoroughly, and it was even considered a rather bustling part of the Pu Region.
Here...
The nightlife was just as brilliant!
Bars!
Dance halls!
Countless!
Seven o'clock!
Dense crowds were here, blowing the sea breeze, drinking, and chatting about the future, or perhaps drowning their sorrows in alcohol. As a tourist city, the nights in Pu Region were never lacking in people, but today, the Pu Region Terminal was a bit excessively lively.
Just look!
There were rows of top-tier luxury vehicles driving into the terminal, among which tens-of-millions-level luxury cars were everywhere. From these luxury cars descended big shots dressed in finery with extraordinary auras, each one an existence capable of calling the wind and summoning the rain in the Pu Region.
This scene:
Caused many people to look on in astonishment:
"Damn? How come so many big shots have come? What's going on! Is there some important program at the terminal today..."
"What kind of important program could make so many big shots come..."
Soon, a local boss came out to explain: "Don't you know? There's a cruise ship auction today! These big shots must be here to attend the cruise ship auction..."
Auction?
The guests only then had a look of sudden realization. Since it was an auction, it was normal for big shots to attend, but soon they noticed something wrong. More and more big shots were coming, and most importantly: the auction cruise ship had already entered the terminal, yet these big shots were all standing down below without boarding the cruise ship.
Someone asked in surprise: "Why does it feel like they are waiting for someone?"
Once these words were spoken.
Everyone didn't believe it:
These big shots are waiting for someone here?
Waiting for whom?
Who is worth having so many big shots wait here?
Therefore, these tourists headed straight to the cruise ship to see the situation...
...
Upon getting close:
Many local residents of the Pu Region were even more shocked, because they recognized many of the truly top-tier big shots of the Pu Region.
Here...
The billion-level didn't even make it to the stage!
Only ten-billion-level big shots could talk and laugh freely!
Only hundred-billion-level big shots could stand out from the crowd!
...
These big shots were all gathered together at this moment, and this scene had quite an impact on ordinary people.
Even those tourists, under the introduction of the Pu Region residents, knew the identities of these big shots and were astonished:
"Damn? There are even hundred-billion-level big shots? Are they that awesome? I've lived this long and haven't even seen a hundred-billion-level big shot..."
"And not just one... The Pu Region is truly wealthy... So many living big shots gathered together... I can even feel the pressure coming at me..."
Although the tourists who could come to the Pu Region for tourism were either rich or expensive, in 2015, they might have been able to see ten-billion-level big shots, but hundred-billion-level big shots were really hard to see in the mainland. After all, the current hundred-billion-level big shots in the mainland could be counted on one's fingers and were considered top-tier in the whole country. Now that they saw several of them together, how could they not be shocked...
...
Not only were the tourists and residents shocked.
At this moment.
The person in charge of receiving at the cruise ship and the service staff lined up in two rows were also full of astonishment. Among those service staff, two were whispering to each other; they were none other than White Whip and Black Blade. However, both of them had disguised themselves and were wearing service staff uniforms, watching the many big shots below from within the crowd. It turned out that not long ago, they had planned with Old Batou to go abroad to search for some lost national-treasure-level cultural relics, and they actually managed to find one in the Gandhi...
It was a pair of Qilin King Seals!
From the Qin Dynasty!
Although it was just a seal of an ordinary prince, it couldn't be helped that it was from the Qin Dynasty, and plus it was well-preserved, so it was definitely considered a national treasure. Unfortunately, they only obtained one of them. Later, after inquiring everywhere, they found the other Qilin Seal, but their tracks were exposed, letting people know they also had a Qilin Seal, and they were hunted by many forces, finally having no choice but to board this auction ship to hide.
...
White Whip: "I heard Old Batou say that there are many heavyweight cultural relics in this auction, including some national treasure level ones. It's a pity we can't take them away... If we could take them all..."
Black Blade: "Stop thinking about it... The security here is very strict. Not to mention that we can't snatch those things, even if we could, we would definitely have no way to leave this ship..."
White Whip: "Do you think Old Batou can still find that Qilin Seal?" They came to this auction ship to hide not only because of its special nature but also because Old Batou found a clue that the other Qilin Seal was also in the hands of a certain big shot on the auction ship.
Black Blade: "He should be able to find it! It's just uncertain whether we can snatch it over... But Old Batou said we can just take advantage of the large number of people and the chaotic nature of the auction to make a move. Regardless of whether it succeeds, we will withdraw immediately back to the mainland after the matter is finished..."
"Even if there is only one Qilin Seal, it can count as us making a great contribution..."
White Whip: "Hmm!"
While the two were talking, their eyes looked at the top-tier big shots below who were dressed in finery and talking and laughing:
White Whip: "It is said that the net worth of these big shots is calculated in billions. There are those with tens of billions and hundreds of billions."
Black Blade: "Yes... They are all top-tier wealthy people..."
White Whip: "How do they spend so much money... With so much money, wouldn't they be able to do whatever they want..."
Black Blade: "Although money cannot solve everything, it can solve the vast majority of things."
White Whip: "If we had so much money, how good that would be. A few hundred million would be enough, and then wouldn't we be able to buy back many national treasures..."
Black Blade: "..."
If they had that much money, would they still be drifting in a foreign land fighting for their lives...
...
Ahead.
The reception manager was equally shocked looking at the big shots below. He knew the guest list for this auction; many of the big shots in front of him were not on the list originally, and were added temporarily today, and he was still confused until now.
Although this auction was relatively grand and the items inside were valuable, normally it wouldn't attract so many big shots, after all, not everyone liked cultural relics.
But these big shots just came suddenly, and even the big boss above didn't dare to refuse, so there must be a situation inside.
"Ahem..."
The reception manager didn't continue to think about these things but smiled and stepped forward to say to the big shots: "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I am the reception manager for this auction. Welcome to this auction. The cruise ship will officially depart at eight o'clock. We have prepared a pre-meeting gathering for you above... Please board the cruise ship, ladies and gentlemen..."
He made a gesture of invitation very elegantly, but no one paid any attention to him. To be precise, no one was boarding the ship right now. These big shots just glanced at him faintly, and then continued to converse, only looking into the distance from time to time...
As if they were waiting for someone...
Reception manager: » ू ( ͒ ˑ • ᷄ ͡ ꇵ ͒ • ᷅ ͒ ) ू?!
