Lin Yi and Lu Dachang settled the rules in front of everyone. The white-bearded elder on the stage finally heaved a sigh of relief. Even if he was the auction host invited by the academy, he was helpless against an unreasonable scoundrel like Lu Dachang. If Lu Dachang really snatched the Yuan Raising Demon Golden Grass away, it would really be a pain in the ass.
Fortunately, this young man was experienced enough to settle Lu Dachang with a few simple words. The younger generation will surpass us in time!
The white-bearded elder sighed in his heart as he carefully asked Lu Dachang, "Then this Yuan Raising Demon Golden Grass belongs to you? The price just now was eight million spirit jades … "
Strictly speaking, this method still put him in a difficult position. After all, if the two of them did this, then what was the point of him being the auction host? But there was no other way, this was the best solution. This was much better than Lu Dachang snatching it away.
"Damn it, this brat escaped this calamity!" Bao Zuoliang and Su Kesheng looked at each other speechlessly. The only thing that could comfort them was eight million spirit jades. This price had already far exceeded the Yuan Raising Demon Golden Grass itself. Although they didn't manage to scam Lin Yi, they still made a huge profit, and the result was not bad.
In the end, Lu Dachang's next words made their hearts tremble. This old bastard glared at them and suppressed them with the aura of a bastard. "Yes your grandma! Master Lin backed out, so we have to bid again. What happened before doesn't count. Don't try to bluff your Grandpa Lu! "
"This …" The white-bearded elder almost spat blood on his face. He had seen many scoundrels, but this was the first time he had seen a scoundrel to this extent. How could there be such a thing in the world?!
"What? You have an opinion? " Lu Dachang glared at him with an unfriendly expression. After all, he was an Opening Stage giant. This aura was really not something an ordinary person could withstand.
"Uh … we have to first ask the seller for his opinion …" The white-bearded elder hesitated for a moment before saying. Under normal circumstances, of course they couldn't do this. Otherwise, a good auction ceremony would become a big joke. But he was after all, an auction host that was temporarily invited. He wasn't stupid enough to offend an Opening Stage giant for a temporary job.
"Hmph! Grandpa Lu will kill whoever dares to refuse!" Lu Dachang fearlessly threatened the entire crowd, then squinted his eyes and asked, "Stop dilly-dallying, tell me who it is!"
The white-bearded old man had no choice but to quickly check the list of bidders. His gaze swept across everyone's faces, and finally, he pointed at Bao Zuoliang, who was hiding in the corner.
Holy shit! Bao Zuoliang's face darkened when he saw the white-bearded old man throw a hot potato onto his head. After being betrayed by the white-bearded old man, he instantly became the focus of everyone present. Now, everyone knew that he was the master of the Yuan Nourishing Demon Golden Grass.
Damn it, if I had known earlier, I would have posted it anonymously! At this moment, Bao Zuoliang felt as if ten thousand alpacas were galloping through his heart. Great, not only did he fail to trick Lin Yi, but he was also going to lose his life!
"Oh, so it's you!" The corner of Lu Dachang's mouth curled up, harboring malicious intentions. Last time, his son had suffered a setback at the hands of this brat, and he had even caused a huge ruckus because of this. Who would have thought that they would meet again today.
"Senior … Senior Lu!" Bao Zuoliang could only bite the bullet and squeeze out an incomparably ugly smile.
"Since we're acquaintances, then it's easy to talk. Brat Bao, tell me what you want. Do you want Grandpa Lu to feel your pulse?" Lu Dachang stared at Bao Zuoliang and sneered.
Although Bao Zuoliang was the son of his immediate superior, he didn't care about this kind of bullsh * t relationship. Bao Fala had only invited him to be a Guest Elder because of his strength, not because of a favor. Moreover, there was no such thing as a friendship between them. Instead, there was a slight grudge because of his son.
"This …" Bao Zuoliang's scalp went numb under his stare, and his smile was even uglier than a cry. If he really let this old bastard feel his pulse, then his pulse would definitely be broken by him. This old bastard definitely didn't have any demeanor of a big shot, and he was very ruthless.
"Say it, stop dilly-dallying. Are you willing or not!" Lu Dachang urged with a displeased expression.
When Lin Yi heard this, he almost burst out laughing. If this was in the secular world, he would think that this was a wedding. Unfortunately, the people in front of him were not a man and a woman who were about to enter the marriage hall, but a red-haired old man and a hedonistic young master.
Bao Zuoliang shrunk his head and didn't know how to answer for a moment. He turned to look at Su Kesheng for help, but how would a small character like Su Kesheng dare to stand out against Lu Dachang? If it was his old man Bao Fala, then it might be possible, but at this moment, there were only the two of them, and Lu Dachang would definitely eat them up.
"Fine!" In the end, Bao Zuoliang could only grit his teeth and nod. Lu Dachang had just said that he would kill anyone who didn't agree, so how would he dare to say no?
"Did you hear that? Hurry up and start again! " Lu Dachang urged the white-bearded old man, and didn't forget to add in the end, "I'll kill anyone who dares to fight with me. Let's see who dares to go against Grandpa Lu!"
The faces of everyone present all darkened, and they looked at each other. Was this still a f * cking auction? This was daylight robbery!
Originally, when Lin Yi took the initiative to withdraw from the competition, the others still had some thoughts of going all out, but Lu Dachang's words immediately made them shrink back. Even someone with a background like Bao Zuoliang could only obediently take a loss, and their background was not as deep as this Young Master Bao's.
"One million, this grass is mine!" Lu Dachang said casually.
The white-bearded old man looked around the crowd, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. After waiting for a long time, no one dared to bid, and finally, he could only settle this farce and say, "One million, deal."
Lu Dachang laughed proudly, but Bao Zuoliang wanted to cry, but no tears came out. What did it mean to go for wool and come home shorn? What did it mean to lose one's wife and one's soldiers? This was a f * cking living portrayal of his current situation!
"Hehe, such a good stalk of Yuan Raising Demon Golden Grass was auctioned off at the base price, this time he really suffered a big loss." Lin Yi smiled and glanced at the aggrieved Bao Zuoliang.
Yuan Raising Demon Golden Grass was a type of natural treasure, and the rarer it was, the more expensive it was. Normally, there was no clear price, and it could only be seen in large-scale auctions. Every time, the price depended on how many people fought for it, but no matter what, one million spirit jade was definitely a loss.
In the past, even if the price wasn't raised to eight million spirit jade, it definitely wouldn't be lower than two or three million spirit jade. Just like Bao Zuoliang this time, he was forced to close the deal at the base price, and it was basically half sold and half given away.
