Chapter 31: The auction begins
Today is the day when the auction begins. Ye Yun finished washing up early and left the inn and headed straight for the place where the auction was held.
"Seriously majestic!"
When he arrived at the auction, Ye Yun was surprised by the building. Not far from him, there was a five-story building with carved beams and painted buildings on the entire building, carved with many lifelike flowers, birds and trees. Even compared with the buildings of Ziji Sect, it was not bad.
There were many people coming to the auction lined up to enter. Seeing this, Ye Yun also lined up with everyone.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, it was finally Ye Yun's turn, and he walked forward.
"This guest, I wonder if you have an invitation letter? If not, you will need to pay a 100 tael of silver ticket."
A maid explained to him. Ye Yun was stunned when he heard this, but then he took out a hundred taels of silver from his arms and handed it to the maid.
The maid took the silver and took a wooden sign from the table behind him to Ye Yun. There was a 65-digit number on the wooden sign.
"Guest, you can go in with this wooden sign. After entering, please follow the numbers on the wooden sign to take your seat."
Looking at the wooden sign in his hand, Ye Yun nodded and walked towards the building.
When I entered the auction venue, I bought it. It was divided into three floors. There were hundreds of people attending the auction in the lobby on the first floor. The second and third floors were all welcomed by the VIP guests from these chambers of commerce.
Ye Yun found his seat according to the numbers on the wooden sign. As soon as he sat down, a maid brought him fruit and tea.
Seeing the people who were still entering, Ye Yun couldn't help but look forward to this auction. First, the storage bags he auctioned could be sold at a good price, and second, he also hoped to buy some treasures that were useful to him.
After waiting for more than half an hour, the auction finally began.
I saw a black curtain slowly unfolding in front of the first-floor lobby, revealing a large auction table behind it.
A person walked out from behind the auction table. Ye Yun glanced and found that this person was Master Huang from Baibao Pavilion.
"Hello everyone, everyone! Thank you for visiting this auction. My surname is Huang. I am honored to host this auction for you. I sincerely wish you all the things you like. Then our auction officially begins, and we will invite our first auction item." Master Huang talked endlessly on the stage, and the auction officially began.
As the words came, a group of maids held a plate covered with black cloth and walked up on the table in front of Master Huang.
"This is our first auction item today. What will happen?" Master Huang introduced, lifting up the covered black cloth, revealing the true face of Lushan, the first thing.
It was a long sword emitting cold light. This piece was three feet long, with a green hilt and a sharp edge all over the sword body.
"This is a medium-grade treasure soldier. The sword is called Qingfeng Sword. It is made of green diamond. Its only feature is its sharpness. Among the treasure soldiers of the same level, there are very few that are sharper than him. Its auction price today is 30,000 taels of silver. Now friends who are moved can take action!" Master Huang skillfully introduced the information about this item to everyone.
"I'll pay thirty-five thousand taels of silver,"
"I pay forty thousand taels of silver, and I am determined to win this sword!"
"Bah, I'll pay 51,000 taels of silver. What's the point of just saying it? Do you have money?"
For a moment, there were clamors in the auction venue, but the sound did not seem chaotic, but instead felt orderly. Everyone bid to compete for what they like.
"This is the auction. I will never feel this atmosphere if I don't come. I don't know how much it will be sold when I get the storage bag." Ye Yun had no idea about the Qingfeng Sword, because he already had a better Shadow Sword. Seeing so many people shouting for the things he liked, he couldn't help but sigh.
"I'll pay 80,000 taels of silver."
"This VIP bids 80,000 taels of silver, and is there any higher one? When you encounter a weapon that suits you, it is really hard to come by. 80,000 taels of silver once, 80,000 taels of silver twice, and 80,000 taels of silver three times, and 80,000 taels of silver three times, the deal is completed! Congratulations to this VIP for grabbing the items you like. Someone will give you a gift later. Now we will invite the second auction item." After Master Huang's three bids, the Qingfeng Sword was finally sold by one person for 80,000 taels of silver.
At this time, the second auction item had been brought up. When the black cloth was lifted and everyone present was shocked.
"Three hundred years old white jade ginseng, a second-level medium-grade spiritual medicine, can cultivate the foundation of the foundation and enhance the foundation of martial arts. It is the best choice for all martial artists in the body-tempering realm. The starting price is 50,000 taels of silver. Now," Master Huang introduced to everyone.
"Oh my God, there are actually three hundred years of white jade ginseng!"
"I didn't expect that such treasures would appear at today's auction!"
Ye Yun was also in a state of turmoil at this time. If he had encountered this thing half a year ago, he would have to buy it even if he lost everything. Unfortunately, he has now broken through the Qi training realm. Cultivate the foundation and strengthen the foundation of martial arts. In other words, it means improving the qualifications for martial arts practice. It goes without saying how important this is for those who practice martial arts.
After shock, there was a crazy bidding sound in the auction venue.
"I'll pay 60,000 taels of silver."
"Sixty thousand taels of silver, you have the nerve to say, I will pay 80,000 taels of silver!"
"I will pay 85,000 taels of silver!"
…………
After a while of bidding, the price of the white jade ginseng soared to 123,000 taels of silver.
At this time, a sound came from a room on the second floor. The sound should be an old man.
"In the second elder of the Zhou family in the Xiahuang Capital, I will pay 130,000 taels of silver. I hope you can give me some face."
As soon as the sound came out, a brief silence appeared in the venue.
But before he could wait, Master Huang shouted, and a woman's voice came from another room on the second floor.
"Old Gui Zhou, are you embarrassed to bid like this? Are you afraid of losing your Zhou family's face? Others are afraid of your Zhou family, but my Duan family is not afraid. I will pay 135,000 taels of silver!"
"Hmph, Duan Qingxue, you crazy woman, are you still afraid that you won't be able to do it? I will pay 140,000 taels of silver?"
"Old man Zhou, who are you calling a crazy woman? You are crazy? Your whole family is crazy. I will fight you to the end today. I will pay 160,000 taels of silver. Do you dare to follow me?"
Suddenly, the entire auction venue was in an uproar. Although this white jade ginseng is not common, it is usually almost 130,000 taels of silver. But now it is called 160,000 taels of silver, which is much higher than the price of the white jade ginseng.
At this time, Master Huang was already happy at the auction table, so he shouted: "Now this VIP has already bid 160,000 taels of silver, 160,000 taels of silver at one time. Is there anyone who bid higher?"
In a private room on the second floor, the second elder of the Zhou family in the imperial capital was preparing to bid for the price with an angry face, but was pulled by a man behind him.
"Uncle, this is already beyond our minimum price. We still have to keep our money for that thing. It is not advisable to shout again now."
After hearing this, the second elder of the Zhou family gradually stabilized his anger and shouted to the box opposite: "Duan Qingxue, I don't care about you, a crazy woman, and this white jade ginseng will let you go. Even if you have this white jade ginseng, your idiot son will not be able to break through the Qi training realm."
"Bah, who do you call your son stupid? Your son is stupid. If you can't afford it, don't talk nonsense." Duan Qingxue cursed back.
Chapter completed!
