…
"Forty-five thousand!"
"Forty-six thousand!"
"Forty-eight thousand!"
In less than a minute, the price of the first dracaena had risen to 48,000. During that time, Lin Huang only managed to get Leng Yuexin to shout "40,000" once. He then watched as the price skyrocketed.
It was obvious that the dracaena was a popular item.
"Someone has bid forty-eight thousand. Will there be a higher bid?" The auctioneer, Kong Hao, asked.
"Forty-eight thousand is considered a high price. Do you still want to fight for it?" Leng Yuexin looked at Lin Huang.
"Of course!" Lin Huang nodded firmly. Although the price had exceeded his expectations, he did not know when he would get another dracaena if he missed this opportunity. He did not want to wait any longer for Charcoal to be unsealed.
"What's the maximum price you can accept for each dracaena?" Leng Yuexin asked again.
"One hundred thousand!" Lin Huang was determined.
Leng Yuexin was stunned. She did not say anything else and pressed the button on the bidding machine.
"Fifty-five thousand!"
Kong Hao's bid of forty-eight thousand was the second time. He thought that the price was settled but he did not expect the person in VIP room number three to raise the price by seven thousand. The price had risen from forty-eight thousand to fifty-five thousand.
"The person in VIP room number three has bid fifty-five thousand!"
Nobody wanted to fight for it anymore.
A dracaena would normally cost between thirty-five thousand to forty-five thousand. It was rare for it to cost more than fifty thousand. That was why most of the people did not want to raise the price when the price was forty-eight thousand. It was not worth it. Now that the price had risen to fifty-five thousand, it had completely exceeded the normal price of the dracaena. Naturally, nobody wanted to fight for it anymore. After all, there were eleven more dracaena next to them. There was no need to be stubborn.
"Fifty-five thousand going once!"
"Fifty-five thousand going twice!"
"Fifty-five thousand going thrice! Sold! "
The auctioneer did not get interrupted this time. The first dracaena was bought by Leng Yuexin just like that.
"Congratulations to the guest in VIP room 3 for purchasing the first Dragon Blood Herb at the price of 55,000!" The auctioneer, Kong Hao, knew very well that the person sitting in VIP room number three was the eldest daughter of the Leng family, so his attitude was naturally very polite. "Now, we will proceed with the auction of the second dracaena herb. The starting price is still 30,000 Life Crystals. Each increment must be no less than 1,000 Life Crystals. The bidding begins now! "
"Beep! The bid from VIP room 3 is 55,000 Life Crystals! "
As soon as Kong Hao finished his sentence, Leng Yuexin, who was in the VIP room, pressed the bid price of $55,000. A female voice was heard in the hall. It was the privilege of the VIP room.
Hearing this voice, many of the nobles in the venue were stunned at first. Then, many buyers who were interested in the dracaena couldn't help but want to curse. "With such a price, how can other people play?!"
Even the experienced Kong Hao was stunned for a moment, but he immediately reacted.
"Looks like the guest in VIP room 3 is determined to get the Dracaena today." Kong Hao smiled and began bidding, "VIP room 3 bids 55,000 Life Crystals. Is there anyone willing to bid a higher price?"
Indeed, nobody continued bidding as the price had exceeded many people's expectations.
Soon, Leng Yuexin bought the second dracaena herb.
In the VIP room, Lin Huang gave her a thumbs up. To Lin Huang, 55,000 was an acceptable price.
As soon as the third dracaena herb was auctioned, Leng Yuexin immediately bid 55,000 without hesitation.
Hearing the female voice, some of the nobles who were initially interested in buying the dracaena looked upset.
"It seems like she's planning to buy all of them. However, she's too naive to buy 12 dracaena herbs at a price of $55,000." A middle-aged nobleman who was wearing a gentleman's hat had an unfriendly look flashing through his eyes.
"$56,000!" Before Kong Hao could bid, he immediately increased the bid.
"$60,000!" Leng Yuexin increased the bid without hesitation.
"$60,000!" The middle-aged nobleman was still stubborn.
"This fella is messing around. Do you want to continue bidding?" Leng Yuexin glanced at the bidder and turned to look at Lin Huang.
"Yes! If he wants to play, I'll play with him. "Lin Huang smiled and nodded.
"$65,000!" Leng Yuexin continued bidding.
"$66,000!" The middle-aged nobleman smirked.
"Let him be." Lin Huang smirked and said to Leng Yuexin.
"That's what I plan to do." Leng Yuexin nodded and smiled.
"Guest No. 250 has placed a bid of $66,000! Will the guest in VIP room 3 continue bidding? "Kong Hao lifted his head and looked at the direction of VIP room 3. However, there was no reply.
Two seconds later, the middle-aged nobleman who was wearing a gentleman's hat felt his heart skip a beat when he did not hear any more bids.
Many of the people around started to look at him mockingly.
"$66,000 going once!"
"$66,000 going twice!"
"$66,000 going thrice!"
"Congratulations to guest No. 250 for successfully bidding for dracaena herb No. 3 at a high price of $66,000!" Kong Hao finally placed his gavel. "Now, let's start bidding for dracaena herb No. 4!"
"Beep! VIP room 3 has placed a bid of $55,000 Life Crystals! "
A female voice was heard again. This time, nobody dared to bid for dracaena herb anymore. Seeing that guest No. 250 was fooled and managed to get the dracaena herb at a price of $66,000, nobody dared to raise the bid on purpose.
Dracaena herb No. 4 was once again won by Leng Yuexin at a price of $55,000.
Then, nobody bid for dracaena herb No. 5 and No. 6.
Finally, somebody could not help but bid for dracaena herb No. 7. However, Leng Yuexin bid for it with $58,000. Then, the people understood how determined VIP room 3 was to get the dracaena herb. If others wanted to get the Dragon Blood Grass, they would have to bid at least sixty thousand, or even more than sixty-five thousand to have a chance of getting it. Many of them decided to give up after knowing that.
Just like that, Leng Yuexin bid for the dracaena herbs at a price of $55,000.
"You've bid for nine out of ten dracaena herbs. Are you sure you don't need the last two?" Leng Yuexin asked Lin Huang.
"I really don't need them. I only need nine of them. Thanks! "Lin Huang nodded." I'm finally done with my business. I won't be coming tomorrow or the day after. What's your plan? "
"I won't be coming either. I don't want to stay here for too long anyway." Leng Yuexin nodded.
"Didn't you say you wanted to relax? I'll accompany you for the next two days. There should be plenty of seafood here that we haven't tried before. We'll leave after we've tried all the seafood. " Lin Huang knew that Leng Yuexin had purposely accompanied him this time. Of course, he had to treat her well.
"Sure." Leng Yuexin hesitated but she did not reject him.
While they were chatting, the people in VIP room 3 did not bid for the dracaena herb for a long time. They then realized that the person in VIP room 3 might have obtained enough dracaena herbs. Hence, they immediately started bidding.
There were initially twelve dracaena herbs but there were only two left. The bidding became intense.
The eleventh dracaena herb was sold at a high price of $63,000 while the last dracaena herb was sold at a price of $68,000.
