77. Grand Finale Auction
The result is unpredictable, and when I measured it, I was shocked. It's not just 10 minutes, but a whole half hour!!!!!
Originally quiet, as if a needle could be heard falling, now it bursts out with an extremely loud noise.
"Whoa, this is awesome? Isn't that equivalent to having an extra life?"
"I'm fed up, with this thing, who can still kill me?"
"This thing is too powerful, I'm gonna take it!"
Listening to the screams of the crowd below, He Cangxue's smile became more and more enchanting.
"Then next is the auction, starting price 10 billion!"
One hundred billion!!!! This number is enough to make these big families tremble, this number is like pouring a basin of cold water on everyone. Nima, this is the starting price! Many families who came here only brought one hundred billion gold coins with them, and their faces turned white in an instant. After all, such heaven-defying medicine is not something that ordinary people can afford.
Ouyang Jinqiu was also slightly surprised, a starting price of 10 billion? This is beyond Ouyang Jinqiu's expectations. Originally, she thought that being able to sell for tens of billions would be good enough. Even if she took advantage of the Medicine King's hype, it would only sell for tens of billions at most, but she didn't expect the starting price to be so expensive!
"Cangxue sister, how many Luoshen Dan are there after all? Hehe. I'm really very interested in this Luoshen Dan!" A clear voice came, the speaker was the little princess Feng Ziyuan from Xiyu.
He Cangxue smiled slightly, "There are only ten pills. If you miss out today, it's uncertain whether you'll be able to buy them in the future!" If Mozi Qi hadn't said that scarcity makes things precious, Ouyang Jinchuan wouldn't have given the remaining elixirs to Jianjian as snacks.
"Hehe, this princess is very interested, I'll give 15 billion!"
"Mother, I also want one. I know that the Yue Lu Academy will be opening soon and if I have it, I'll definitely pass the entrance exam smoothly. If I had the Luo Shen Dan, I would certainly make Mother proud!" A spoiled voice flashed by, the coquettish tone making Ouyang Jincui frown, and he could easily tell that this was the voice of Fourth Miss Ouyang Jinhua.
The Fourth Mistress naturally couldn't compare to Ouyang Jinhua, and she thought that if Ouyang Jinhua could successfully enter Yuelu Academy, then her own status at home might also change, and perhaps she would have the opportunity to participate in the power struggles within the manor.
She was also very dissatisfied that the second lady had taken all the good things, and wasn't she just married earlier? In the end, hadn't she been a concubine too?
Similarly, as a concubine, what's the difference? Thinking of this, Fourth Madam gritted her teeth and stomped her foot, determined to try. After all, her own family was still a wealthy merchant family. For her own status and for her daughter's future, she would give it a shot. Thinking about it, she opened her mouth: "I'll offer 15.1 billion!"
"Pfft!" The people around couldn't help but laugh, and the Ou Yang family was just too ridiculous. They only added 1 billion, what a petty move! Second Madam and Second Miss Ou Yang Jin Xiu looked at Fourth Madam and Fourth Miss with disdain on their faces. Thinking to themselves: country bumpkins are indeed country bumpkins, they're really embarrassing our Ou Yang family.
Ouyang Jinhua also felt embarrassed and deeply felt that Mrs. Si was really petty!
Not yet finished, the people around started bidding again, "One hundred and seventy billion!" The bidder was a prince from a Western country, this prince had always been trying to please Princess Feng Ziyuan, hoping to marry her as his wife, doing so was also to make Princess Feng happy.
Feng Ziyuan looked at the young master, turned her head and stomped her foot. She would never marry this playboy. "Two hundred billion, whoever dares to raise the price will have to deal with me, Feng Ziyuan, and that means dealing with the Western Domain!"
It's not worth fighting with Feng Ziyuan at this point. After all, there are ten elixirs, and the four major imperial families will definitely get one each, leaving the remaining six for everyone else to fight over.
Under the hype of Princess Feng Ziyuan from Xiyu Country, the first Luo Shen Dan was sold for 20 billion gold coins.
The next second to fourth, these three pills were also traded at 20 billion gold coins.
The four major empires have scrambled for the elixir, and next are these long-awaited aristocratic families.
The following several pills were also sold at high prices, and the two ladies did not participate in the auction, one thinking that the competition would be smaller later on.
The most important thing is that neither of the two ladies wants to be photographed by the other, and they are mutually restrained, fearing that the other will get ahead!
"One hundred and seventy billion!" As soon as the last dan medicine was auctioned off, someone hastily called out a price.
"1.9 billion!" The second madam immediately flipped 200 million more, and proudly raised her head to the fourth madam, implying that if you don't have money, go home and play with your mud, a worthless person like you dares to compete with me.
But she didn't gloat for long, as someone immediately called out a price: "23 billion!"
"Three hundred and fifty billion."
"Three hundred and seventy billion!"
"Three hundred and ninety billion!"
The price kept rising, but it didn't seem to be stopping anytime soon. At this moment, a loud and clear voice rang out from the VIP room.
"Four hundred million!" The fourth madam also had to get this dan medicine, all for the sake of the child...
Four hundred million is already a huge sum for the Fourth Mistress. Although her family was wealthy, she didn't have much oil and water in the mansion after all.
"Fourth sister, your family's Jin Hua has shallow qualifications, taking this good medicine is also in vain. My family's Jin Xiu is different, she was born with a special gift, if she gets the help of this elixir, it will make our family prosperous." At this time, the second lady turned her head and said to her: "You should just accept your fate, haha"
As soon as this was said, the four madams were even more furious. Ouyang Jinhua was her only hope. If she couldn't win over the second madam this time, she would be oppressed and humiliated by the second madam for the rest of her life.
"Second sister, the treasure of the auction can be taken by those who have the ability, you can also increase the price." The fourth madam spoke in a neither warm nor cold tone.
"Hmm, let's wait and see who laughs last"
"Four hundred and fifty billion."
"4.7 billion!"
"Four hundred and ninety billion!"
Facing the soaring data, Mrs. Si was already sweating profusely, and this price was about to break through her last line of defense.
"Four hundred and ninety-nine billion" was the final straw that crushed the fourth madam after the second madam raised the price.
"Haha, Fourth Sister, you'd better give up, you don't even have any money in your hand and yet you dare to compete with me for the treasure"
The four madams were speechless for a moment, so angry that they couldn't speak, was she destined to be suppressed?
For such a high price, there are hardly anyone who is interested on site, after all it's too expensive.
"Five billion!" The bidders below fell silent, this person was too arrogant, suddenly raising the price so high. Ouyang Jinqiu took a look and saw that he was a tall and powerful man with a strong face, his stern expression revealed that he was from a military background.
That's 50 billion! Spoken from this big shot in the air, it's no different from 50 yuan, indeed, the rich are arrogant!
The second wife's abacus was played a bit too early, and what should have been the final scene of the auction turned out to be another unexpected twist...
Unexpectedly delighted, surprised, excited, at this moment, the fourth madam is simply an expression emperor.
"Is that you, Big Brother?" The fourth madam smiled and walked up to him, warmly saying: "It's me, Xuanxuan! It's been a long time since we last met, but you're still as carefree as ever!"
"Haha, Xuanxuan, I knew it was you!" The burly man laughed and said: "It's been over a decade, hasn't it? We haven't seen each other since you married into the Nan Yi country."
"Yes! I really didn't think I'd have the chance to see my family members again"
Before she had finished speaking, the fourth wife rushed up and threw her arms around the burly man, wailing loudly as if pouring out some grievance to a family member.
"Xinxin just now this price was what I helped you bid for, one look and it's clear that you really like it!"
Ah! The fourth wife exclaimed in surprise, "Brother-in-law, 50 billion! How did you get so much money?"
"Haha, then you don't have to worry about it, anyway someone will pay the bill, we're all one family I support you 50 billion" The burly man glanced in the direction of the second madam and said softly: "Is someone bullying you?"
"Yes, coincidentally my second sister's daughter and I both want this item, unfortunately I don't have that much money..." Waaah! The fourth madam cried even more sorrowfully, but it was all thunder and no rain.
Don't worry, these 50 billion plus the money in your hand are enough to buy it. Consider it a small gift from me as your uncle when we first met.
A small gift... The crowd at the scene was amazed, 50 billion as a meeting gift, what a big shot.
The four madams smiled and laughed, turned around and pulled Ouyang Jinhua over to recognize her uncle... In this way, she had 8.5 billion in her hands, which was enough to kill the second madam.
"That's someone from the Yan Wang Fu!"
"Right! It's him, I remember now. He is the personal bodyguard of King Yan of Bihai Country. Who would have thought that someone from the Yan Wang Fu would be here?" The scene was abuzz with discussion.
"Five hundred billion, and there's still a price increase?" He Xue's hand grasped the wooden mallet tightly, today her mood was exceptionally good, thinking that after selling this treasure, she would only have to worry about how to spend the money on her body.
The power of the Yanwangfu is unmatched in the country of Bihai, and even in other countries, people generally give them some respect, as no one dares to provoke them.
Although these five hundred billion are sponsored by the fourth madam, someone from the Yan Wang Fu came forward to participate, and most people may have retreated after learning about it, after all, the Yan Wang Fu is not easy to mess with.
The murmurs around gradually subsided, and everyone was not stunned by the 5 billion price tag, but rather curious to see who would dare to continue bidding.
As expected, they didn't disappoint their hopes.
"Five hundred and fifty billion!" A deafening thunderclap shook the sky!
"What?!" The scene erupted in an uproar. Someone actually dared to not give face to the Yan Wang Fu, wasn't that clearly looking down on the Yan Wang Fu?! How bold!!!
The voice fell to the ground, and everyone was shocked. Along the direction of the sound, they searched for it, but only saw the second lady's charming face full of confidence. This treasure, she had decided, no matter what the cost.
Women sometimes let emotions conquer reason, especially when it comes to motherly love. She wouldn't care about things like the Palace of the King of Swallows or the Palace of the King of Ghosts.
His face suddenly sank, and he turned to the fourth lady and said: "This second sister of yours is not ordinary arrogant! Not even giving face to the Yan Wang Fu"
A new round of blackening me has started, those who are clear will be clear, and even my readers scolded me, really low quality.
