Capítulo 45: Auction House in Panic
The ace salesman's cheeks swelled up like a balloon, and all his teeth were broken. His hollow eye sockets and shaking body were clear signs of the pain he was in.
Despite his agony, the ace salesman didn't dare to say a word. He tightly closed his lips, trying to keep the blood from flowing out, afraid of offending Lakeman further. Playing tricks on a Celestial Dragon and ending up beaten and broken instead of dead was already incredible luck.
The ace salesman even felt that all his luck for the rest of his life had been spent on this moment.
"Master?" After the guard finished slapping him, he turned back to Lakeman and asked if he wanted to do anything more.
Lakeman waved his hands in disgust.
"Yes." The guard bowed and walked out of the hotel with the ace salesman in tow.
In the room, everyone was as silent as a cicada. This was the first time Lakeman had shown anger, and no one dared to speak out, fearing they might become the next target.
'Young Master's growth really surprises me,' the butler thought, looking pleased. He knew a thing or two about auction tricks. Originally thinking that Lakeman would be deceived, he had planned to find a private opportunity to quietly remind Lakeman. Unexpectedly, Lakeman saw through the scam directly and ordered the punishment of the salesman. This decisive handling revealed the aura of a superior.
'This is how it should be, noble Celestial Dragons!' the housekeeper thought excitedly. 'The young master is born to be the superior!'
Outside the room, the guard dragged the pale and pain-ridden ace salesman quickly out of the hotel.
"What's going on?" Hancock had just finished her practice. Seeing this scene, she asked doubtfully.
The guard stopped and, seeing it was Hancock, explained, "This is a person from the auction house. He dared to play tricks in front of the young master. The young master ordered me to smash his mouth, break his limbs, gouge out his eyes, and throw him back to the auction house."
If it were someone else, the guard wouldn't have bothered to explain. But Hancock was different. Although she was a slave, Master Lakeman liked her very much and was extremely doting on her. Therefore, the guards' attitude towards her was different.
"Really?" Hancock looked at the ace salesman, noting his swollen cheeks, blank eye sockets, and the expression of agony on his face. She couldn't help but frown. A real sense of fierceness washed over her. For the first time, she felt the dominance represented by the identity of 'Celestial Dragons.'
"I'm going to throw him back to the auction," the guard said, seeing that Hancock had nothing else to say. He grabbed the salesman and left.
Hancock watched them go and sighed softly.
"Is this the Celestial Dragons?" she murmured, somewhat in awe of Lakeman. The young master of Celestial Dragons who greedily tasted her body that night was not kind to everyone but had a cold, ruthless side.
"It's really lucky that I get such treatment, and it also benefits from the love of Lakeman Saint," Hancock said to herself. She had a clearer understanding of her luck. If it were another person, if Lakeman liked her less, she wouldn't be as comfortable as she was today. It was even more impossible to get guidance from an Admiral candidate and be provided with a lot of resources every day.
Before the auction house…
The ace salesman endured it all the way and finally dared to let go, spitting out a mouthful of blood and broken teeth. He felt his cheeks burning with pain, and his mouth was filled with the taste of blood. A sharp pain like needle pricks shot through his upper and lower gums. The pain made his veins throb, and he was about to go into shock.
"Hmph, you're lucky!" The guard smiled coldly and threw the salesman into the auction hall.
Bang.
The ace salesman landed on the floor of the hall like a broken sack. He didn't dare to complain, so he forced himself to kneel in the direction of the hotel and said vaguely:
"Thank you, Saint Lakeman, for your forgiveness!"
Bang!
"Thank you, Saint Lakeman, for your forgiveness!"
Bang!
"Thank you, Saint Lakeman, for your forgiveness!"
Bang!
As he spoke, he kowtowed vigorously. The ace salesman's forehead soon became broken and bruised.
"Snort!" The guard sneered and turned to leave.
In the hall, both the auction staff and the guests looked at this scene in shock. No one dared to speak. There were no fools in the Sabaody Archipelago because fools wouldn't survive the first day. They all knew that they were the guards of the Celestial Dragons. The guards of Celestial Dragons all had a similar style of clothing.
The man kneeling on the ground and kowtowing was an employee of the auction. He offended the Celestial Dragons and was lucky enough to save his life but was thrown back. He kowtowed and said, 'Saint Lakeman.' Important information was clearly revealed. Only Celestial Dragons would have 'saint' added to the end of their name.
For a long time, until the guard's figure disappeared, only then did the auction staff step forward, lift the ace salesman up, and bring him into the venue.
"Tsk, tsk, the auction is going to be in trouble."
"Yes, if you offend the Celestial Dragons, you will have to shed your skin even if you don't die."
"Let's go, this neighborhood is going to be in chaos."
"It's a pity. There is something I quite like in tomorrow's auction."
The guests shook their heads and left quickly. They would not come here for the auction in the short term.
The employees at the auction looked even more terrified, fearing the Celestial Dragons' revenge.
"What should we do? Should we... run away?"
"If we leave now, the auction will kill us!"
"Run away? I'm too busy taking care of the auction; how can I care about us low-level employees?"
"Yes, run quickly, no one can bear the wrath of the Celestial Dragons."
The eyes of the lower-level employees flickered, and their faces showed signs of retreat. Not long after, many people secretly took off their work clothes and ran away.
Inside the auction, senior management and key personnel gathered together to start the meeting in a solemn atmosphere.
"The situation... is like this." The ace salesman, who had been treated vaguely, told everyone what happened.
His voice was hoarse and trembling, his swollen face making it difficult to speak clearly. Blood still dripped from his mouth, and his limbs hung at awkward angles, visibly broken.
"We... we tried to trick the Celestial Dragon, and... and he saw right through it," the ace salesman managed to say, wincing with every word. "He ordered my punishment... this is the result."
For a moment, everyone's face turned pale, and they were sweating violently. Their behavior of playing tricks on the Celestial Dragons was discovered! How could they withstand the wrath of the Celestial Dragons?
"Damn it, everything went smoothly before; why did it fail this time?"
"Yeah, Celestial Dragons are obviously easy to trick."
"Shut up! It's because of your mentality that we have the current results!"
"That's right. I have always opposed using this method to defraud Celestial Dragons. The risk is too high. Once exposed, everyone will be finished!"
"Fuck you, why didn't I see you refuse when we divided the money?"
The room was filled with bickering and panic, the reality of their situation setting in. The sight of the ace salesman's tortured state only heightened their fear and desperation.
