"What is this …" The audience was in an uproar as they had never seen such a treasure before. Yue Qianchou turned around to look at Wu Lixue, and the latter just happened to turn around to look at him. Both of them were slightly startled when their eyes met. The former revealed a questioning look as though he was saying, are you sure you want this item? Don't you want to exchange it for something you like?
However, it seemed like Wu Lixue hadn't reached the realm of telepathy with him yet. Her charming face blushed as she turned around shyly. Fortunately, her entire face was covered, and she could sit at the side without anyone seeing through her shyness. Yue Qianchou pouted indifferently. Since you like it, then I will buy it.
The host of the auction was Wu Clan's Elder, Wu Tai. Wu Tai looked at Clan Head Wu Sihai who was in the dark room at the side of the stage, and the latter nodded.
Wu Tai turned around and swept his gaze below before speaking in a clear voice, "Everyone, the auction will still follow the old rules. The highest bidder wins. I won't say any more nonsense and will introduce the first item to everyone."
Looking at the item that was flickering in red and black, Wu Tai shook his head and sighed. "It is shameful to say this. For so many years, there hasn't been an item that our Wu Clan couldn't appraise. Today, we have finally encountered one. Our Wu Clan can't differentiate the authenticity of the first item, but I believe it is also a treasure. According to the seller's estimation, this item might be the egg of the divine bird 'Vermillion Bird'. Our Wu Clan has flipped through the ancient records to find the legends. The divine bird Vermillion Bird's egg does have some similarities with this item, but we can't be certain. In view of this, after discussing with the seller, we have decided to make this the first item. Heh! If you are interested, why don't you buy it and incubate it. Who knows, you might really be able to hatch a divine bird Vermillion Bird. "
"Haha …" Once this statement was out, it instantly caused the audience to burst into laughter. What a joke, divine bird Vermillion Bird? That was something that only existed in legends. Who had seen it before? If it was true, why didn't the seller incubate such a divine item himself? Why did he want to auction it?
Lian Yue Qianchou also felt that this was a bit absurd. He looked at Wu Lixue, only to see a pair of large eyes curiously staring at the so-called "Vermillion Bird Egg". Yue Qianchou was speechless. I will buy it!
"Everyone!" Wu Tai waved his hand and said: "The first item 'Vermillion Bird Egg', the starting price is five thousand upper grade spirit stones, every increment must be no less than a thousand upper grade spirit stones, those who are willing to buy, please bid, the highest bidder wins!"
"Haha …" The audience burst into laughter again. If it was really a Vermillion Bird egg, then selling it at 5000 yuan was a bit too cheap. After everyone laughed, they looked around to see which idiot would bid for this thing.
For a long time, no one made a bid. Even Bi Zicong and the other three couldn't help but look at Yue Qianchou. He didn't look like someone who would go back on his words! Yue Qianchou sat quietly, unmoved. On the other hand, Wu Lixue was a little embarrassed. Could it be that he was afraid of being laughed at by buying this thing? However, she didn't think that everyone was covered up, so who would know who was who! Yue Qianchou had his own plans.
"No one is bidding?" Wu Tai looked around, shook his head and sighed: "Wu Clan holds a grand auction once every five years. I didn't expect it to be unsold today." Finished speaking, he waved his hand at the disciples on both sides, signaling them to bring the item down.
"Wait! I will buy it with five thousand upper grade spirit stones. "It was a woman's voice, her tone was pretty good. Everyone looked over, someone was bidding at the corner of the front row, many of them guessed that it was a young mistress from some sect who had too much money.
"Haha! At least it didn't go unsold! " Wu Tai said excitedly: "Is there anyone else bidding? If not, this item will belong to this lady."
Just when everyone was sneering in their hearts. Yue Qianchou raised one hand and said: "I will bid six thousand."
There was another uproar. But no one knew that he was cursing in his heart. Damn it! I wanted to take advantage of this at the most crucial moment, why did you come out to mess things up.
The woman who made the bid earlier looked over and raised her hand: "Seven thousand."
"Eight thousand." Yue Qianchou shouted again. That woman raised her hand again without hesitation: "Ten thousand."
Just when Yue Qianchou wanted to raise the price again, someone shouted: "Fifteen thousand." It was a man's voice.
Adding five thousand in one go, Yue Qianchou stopped bidding. Damn it! There's someone even more sinister than me. Just like everyone else, they all looked at the black clothed man in the middle who acted as if nothing had happened. This time, no one laughed anymore, they all looked at the "Vermillion Bird Egg" on the stage. Could it be that there was really someone who knew what it was?
"Sixteen thousand." That woman raised the price again.
"Twenty thousand." That man also raised the price again, he was obviously more generous than that woman. The woman hesitated for a while and finally shouted: "Twenty thousand."
Under everyone's gaze, the man raised his hand: "Twenty thousand." It seemed like he was determined to win. And that woman finally stopped. After waiting for a while, Wu Tai looked around and shouted: "Twenty thousand, is there anyone else bidding?"
"Thirty thousand." Yue Qianchou raised his hand again. To someone who was determined to win, there was no need to be so stingy when raising the price. Who asked him to also be determined to win? Everyone originally thought that Yue Qianchou had been scared off, but who knew that it would start again. This time, everyone knew that there was going to be a good show to watch. The two people who were determined to win were going to have some sparks.
That man paused for a moment and raised his hand: "Fifty thousand." Yue Qianchou said without hesitation: "Hundred thousand." That woman in the corner suddenly looked at him and knew that she was tricked by him. Eleven thousand increments, it turned out that he didn't even put it in his eyes. Wu Lixue, who was at the side, looked at him with her heart thumping. It turned out that he really wanted to buy it for her.
After waiting for a moment, Wu Tai laughed heartily and said, "It has already been raised to a hundred thousand. Does this mister still want to raise it?" Of course, he was happy. The Wu Clan would take 20% of the transaction price of every item, and this hundred thousand would be a profit of twenty thousand for the Wu Clan. How could he not be happy? And the mister he mentioned was naturally the man in the middle. The latter raised his hand and said, "One hundred and fifty thousand."
The crowd was in an uproar as this price was already very high. Yue Qianchou said indifferently, "Three hundred thousand!"
The crowd instantly felt as though they were struck by lightning, and there was absolute silence. He doubled the price in an instant, and it was already sixty times the base price. That woman in the corner took a glance at him. Previously, she was still a little angry, but now, she had completely lost her temper. It wasn't that he was tricking her, but she simply didn't have the strength to accept the challenge.
When Wu Sihai, who was in the dark room on the stage, heard the bid, he suddenly looked at Yue Qianchou. One had to know that Yue Qianchou's seat was arranged by the Wu Clan in advance, and he naturally knew who was sitting there.
Wu Lixue didn't even dare to raise her head. This man was fine when he didn't show his prowess, but once he did, he would be so domineering and awe-inspiring, and she was completely convinced. For her, he spent three hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones to buy an unknown item. She was truly perturbed and felt that her request was too excessive.
Bi Zicong and the others looked at one another in dismay. They knew that Yue Qianchou was rich, but they didn't expect him to be this rich. Three hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones to buy an item as a gift for a woman. He was truly ruthless! They knew that it would be hard for them to do such a thing. Wu Licheng was now truly admiring his grandfather's foresight. If Xue 'er really followed Yue Qianchou, she definitely wouldn't feel bad. At the very least, she wouldn't run out of money …
