The old lady led her granddaughter in a carriage and slowly headed towards the royal auction house.
Speaking of which, the Royal Auction House is very close to the Royal Colosseum, separated by two streets. The big trees in the middle are too dense, which completely blocks the auction house. This is why Jun Shutong didn't see it several times when he passed by.
Looking at the huge figure in the auction house, Jun Shutong felt a little uncomfortable, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.
I just feel that this huge auction hall is too dark, and where the sunlight can shine, there are only sparse and mottled spots of light.
The grandfather and grandson came to the door of the auction house, verified their identities, got number plates, and then were led by a special person to sit in the seats reserved for nobles.
Just like the last time at the Colosseum, as soon as we sat down, someone brought us snacks and tea.
The location of the auction house is different from that of the Colosseum. In the Colosseum, the Jun family's seat is in the center of the open-air steps, while in the auction house, the seats of princes and nobles are arranged on the second floor of the venue.
Upstairs, each family has a separate room, all separated by gauze curtains. As long as they don't make any noise, it is difficult for strangers to tell who lives next door.
The rooms here are not marked with the names of the families, only the room numbers, which correspond to the number of your hand cards.
Looking down from the second floor, you can have a panoramic view of the entire auction hall.
There are also dozens of rows of seats on the first floor. The high platform in front of the seats is where the auctioneer displays the items.
"Grandma, what are you photographing today?"
"Why doesn't it look like there are many people?"
Looking at the dozens of sparse people below, Jun Shutong didn't think that there would be many people participating every time.
The old lady took a sip of tea, moistened her throat and then said:
"The auctioneer never tells me what they're going to auction in advance, so I'm not really sure what they're going to auction."
Suddenly, the old lady lowered her voice and said with a mysterious smile:
"But I heard that today, in addition to the weapons of the Dwarf Master, there are also medicinal herbs from the Mystical Beast Forest. As for the rest, Grandmother really doesn't know."
Jun Shutong smiled knowingly. This is what her grandmother said, that the organizer would not disclose the information?
It seems that this policy of not disclosing information is only aimed at civilians, and the nobles in the royal capital are not included.
After a while, someone entered the room next to the left. Judging from the sound, there were at least five people, three of whom were teenagers and two were women.
The people next door spoke in low voices, as if they were afraid that others would recognize their identities.
This sound was as thin as a mosquito to others, but to Jun Shutong, it was clear and distinct without any obstruction.
"Third Master, it's so hot in here. Can I take off your coat for you?"
The woman's pretentious voice was so cold that Jun Shutong got goose bumps.
"Baby, you are so thoughtful. It's worth it that I always patronize you."
"Oh, Third Young Master, you are so annoying! Since you have redeemed me, I will be yours from now on. Why bring up those things in the past again?"
"Okay, okay, I'll do whatever you say. It's because I like you, hehehe!"
Several voices echoed, and then some unspeakable obscene words were heard. Jun Shutong directly covered his ears with his hands.
The people next door seemed to have no scruples, their voices growing louder and louder, but the content had nothing to do with the auction. Jun Shutong could still hear it clearly even when he covered his ears.
The old lady knew her granddaughter's ears were hurting when she saw her look on her face, but there was nothing she could do. She couldn't just catch the people next door and beat them up!
It's not wrong to beat him up, but it would be troublesome to deal with the aftermath, so it's not necessary.
Those who can live next to the Jun family are either rich or noble, and they are all people in power in the royal capital. In addition, those people next door are not necessarily direct relatives of the nobles.
This is because each noble room can bring in three to five people, regardless of whether they are commoners or rich. As long as they are brought in personally by the owner of the room, the organizer will not ask any other questions except registering their identities.
After all, everyone has a few friends, and these friends may also be one of the buyers.
The voice next door sounded very young. Jun Shutong felt like she had heard it somewhere before. Out of curiosity, she could only ask the system for help.
[System, who are those three men and two women next door?]
[Host, as you expected, the two women are from Ningyan Pavilion, and the three men, two of them are servants. The man called Third Master is a grandson of the Fujiwara family, the third son of Fujiwara Kokun, Fujiwara Keiji.]
【Fujiwara no Keiko? 】
[Is that the Fujiwara Keiko who was kidnapped by orcs and escaped?]
[Yes, host.]
[Oh, so it's that grandson. But then again, the Fujiwara family is truly unique on this continent. Even their names are so creative.]
The old lady curled her lips. Is her granddaughter praising the Fujiwara family or belittling them?
How can this be called novel? At best, it's a quirk, a family of bizarre and unusual creatures, truly unique.
"Puff."
The sound of suppressed laughter came from the room on the right. The old lady lowered her eyes. The person who laughed so coincidentally must have heard her granddaughter's thoughts.
The people who can hear one's inner voice are either members of the Jun family or officials in the court.
Jun Shutong didn't know that because of vacation, half of the officials in the court had entered the auction house one after another.
The main reason, of course, was that I heard that Miss Jun was coming. Not only Miss Jun was coming, but His Majesty would also be coming.
Of course, a small number of people are still interested in the auction, and most people come because of Jun Shutong.
They knew very well that where Miss Jun was, there would be gossip. Even if there was no gossip, they could still know many things that they had never been exposed to.
This time, the system was quite proactive. Knowing that the host was getting impatient, it took the initiative to report the movements in the next room.
