After the bell rang, the ordinary seats under the stage were already full, and ordinary warriors were whispering to each other. It was as noisy as a vegetable market.
Ordinary seats do not require any identity. You only need to pay one thousand taels of silver as the admission fee. The entire auction house can accommodate tens of thousands of people bidding at the same time. Even if not a single thing is sold in this auction, everyone will make a lot of money. The bowl is gone.
Suddenly, the whole hall fell silent.
An old man in a rich robe with meticulously combed hair walked out of the back hall of the auction. Many people's eyes flickered when they saw this man.
Eunuch Feng, Dongfang Xiao's close friend.
That the auction was hosted by him is enough to prove that the royal family attaches great importance to this auction.
Eunuch Feng has been serving Dongfang Xiao all year round, so he would not be nervous about an auction. He walked up to the high platform, clasped his fists in all directions and said, "Today, as the steward of the Dongfang family, I am presiding over today's auction. I hope all of you martial arts Comrade Jie, give me some face and don't make trouble at the auction, otherwise it will be regarded as provoking the Dongfang family!"
As soon as these words came out, many martial arts people with different intentions were slightly shocked. The royal family of Dahan Kingdom was so powerful this time!
Some people also heard the voiceover, and what Eunuch Feng meant was that whatever happens after the auction has nothing to do with the Dongfang family. As long as you don't offend my Dongfang family, you can make trouble as you like.
"interesting… "
In the inconspicuous VIP room on the second floor, the coquettish young man stroked his blood-red lips with his fingertips and looked at the light black curtain wall diagonally across the building, his blood-red eyes flashing.
Tao Zisang seemed to be aware of it. He frowned and looked downstairs, but the glazed curtain wall blocked him from seeing the scene inside clearly. There were many masters hidden in the auction. It would be foolish for him to release his spiritual consciousness rashly.
"Check which power belongs to that VIP room!"
Tao Zisang ordered the delegation, and someone immediately exited the VIP room silently. The eight elders around him also looked tense. Although their cultivation was much higher than Tao Zisang, Tao Zisang was the leader.
They were convinced by someone who gave up his identity for Tao Zisang and lurked in Dahan Country for many years for the Corpse Refining Sect for no other reason than Tao Zisang.
"Ahem..."
As Eunuch Feng let out a light cough, the noise in the venue faded away, and many fiery eyes focused on the high platform in the venue again.
"The auction has officially begun!"
Before he finished speaking, a boy immediately lowered the high platform with a tray covered with red cloth. Eunuch Feng didn't waste any time. He opened the white cloth with one hand and revealed the long sword that exuded a faint cold air.
"The first one is the last sword made by Master Shi a hundred years ago, the Cold Wind Sword! The starting price is one hundred thousand taels of silver, and each increase in price must not be less than one thousand taels!"
As soon as this thing came out, the whole hall on the first floor was in an uproar.
"What? It's actually Master Shi's last work!"
"This item has extremely high collection value. Even if it cannot be used for much purpose, it is still worth a million taels!"
"Superficial! All the weapons crafted by Master Shi are treasures. One look at this cold wind sword and you can tell that the blade is made of ten thousand years of cold iron. It is comparable to the spirit sword, more than a million?!"
"I'll pay five hundred thousand taels!"
"One million taels!"
"Five million taels!!"
"Ten million!!"
The price rose rapidly, and the presence of such a treasure at the beginning really aroused the enthusiasm of all ordinary warriors. There was no need to warm up, and the atmosphere of the auction was directly raised to the highest level.
Not long after, the VIP room on the second floor also started bidding, but the third floor was quiet and there was no sound at all. Just a piece of work by a dead master refiner was not enough to attract their attention.
Of course, if Master Shi was still alive, the price of this work would be completely different.
Snapped!
"Thirty million taels, the third time! Congratulations to VIP No. 22, the Cold Wind Sword is yours. Please wait for a moment, and a steward from the auction house will go to complete the transaction with you alone."
In room No. 22, Tantai Yu, who had changed his appearance, let out a soft sigh. Qi Xianqing couldn't help but wonder: "Why did you buy this sword?"
The Tianji Kingdom is full of skilled craftsmen. Although this kind of sword has not been seen before, if it were placed in the Tianji Kingdom, it would be worth a minimum of one hundred thousand taels at most.
Tantai Yu's behavior was undoubtedly a waste in his eyes, and he couldn't spend it like this even if he had money.
Tantai Yu smiled and said: "The last time I went to meet my junior sister was too abrupt. I have been thinking about what kind of meeting gift to give to my junior sister for the past few days. When I saw this sword, I remembered that my junior sister seemed to be lacking a handy weapon. Tianji Kingdom is a long way away, disciples can’t go back to Tianji Kingdom just to save money, right?”
"You kid..."
Qi Xianqing laughed and cursed, but he was relieved in his heart. Even if he is gone in the future, he believes that Tantai Yu can protect Su Li and let him grow into a capable master of the Gui Valley.
Su Li, who was on the third floor, didn't know that Qi Xianqing was with Tantai Yu in the VIP room downstairs. She closed her eyes and rested, waiting quietly for the last moment like other forces.
As a long-established industry, Yunjing Auction House has very sophisticated methods and the order of auction items is arranged very delicately. The Cold Wind Sword opened the auction and sold for a high price of thirty million taels. After the atmosphere was heated up, the following auction items, although not eye-catching, also sold for good prices.
…
The auction came to town quickly, and within half a day, half of the hundreds of lots were sold.
"The fifty-fifth lot, a jar of Liju Fire Wine puree, starting price is five million taels!" The waiter brought a small pot of wine and placed it in front of Eunuch Feng, and the audience was suddenly shocked and confused.
"What kind of wine is fire wine?"
"What kind of wine can sell for five million taels? Could it be that the Yunjing Auction House was deceived?"
"Linliju, I have heard that it is a restaurant opened by Mr. Li. If this is the case, then there must be something extraordinary about the strong fire wine!"
There were whispers in the crowd, and when someone heard this sentence, their originally disdainful and suspicious expression immediately turned into surprise.
"That Mr. Li who is comparable to Qi Xianqing in business?"
"It's the one who brewed the wine!"
A huge discussion broke out from the crowd, and when it reached Qi Xianqing's ears, he couldn't help but look strange, "Mr. Li..." He had never heard of such a person in his more than two hundred years of life.
Eunuch Feng smiled and pressed his hands, "Everyone, please be patient. Yunjing Auction House has always done business with children. It makes sense that the pure fire wine puree can be sold for five million taels. It will be appraised by our auction house. After identification, the master discovered that this wine is not only a rare wine in the world, but also has the effect of dispelling cold poison."
Speaking of this, Eunuch Feng paused and said, "However, the fire wine is not without its drawbacks. The raw liquor is too strong and is not suitable for ordinary people to drink. Only warriors with innate cultivation can withstand the power of the wine. Otherwise, it’s easy to get drunk to death.”
As soon as these words came out, all the warriors in the hall were in an uproar.
Cold poison is one of the strangest poisons in the world!
A small bottle of wine can actually have the effect of a miracle medicine!
