Chapter 119: Immortality
No one would have thought that the last item of this auction, the finale auction item, would actually be a fragment of a celestial star that can make people "immortal"!
Although Dong Xun'er has already said very clearly, this fragment of the celestial star can only prolong life, not real immortality.
But because of Qin Shi Huang, the legend of the meteorite outside the sky, everyone thinks that this stone can make them live for a few more years.
Don't say a few years, even if you live a few more months, it's a good thing that can't be bought with money.
No one can resist the coming of death.
Even those who once stood at the top of the pyramid only sighed in the face of death.
Survival, this is the natural 'nature' of animals, it is an instinctive reaction.
No matter how powerful a person is, he is still not exempt from vulgarity.
This is the reason why the four sages of the bamboo forest will quarrel.
Don't say it's a sage, even if a saint encounters a celestial star fragment, such a good thing, it will be exciting.
A saint is also a human being, and all human beings will have seven emotions and six desires, and no one will be an exception.
"The rules for obtaining the stars are those with the highest price."
"Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't have enough cash with you, you can trade in antiques."
Dong Xun'er clapped her hands, and immediately nine white-bearded old men walked over.
"Nine Elders?"
Shangguan Xue raised the corners of her eyebrows, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Although these nine people are dying of old age, their eyes are full of gold and do not disperse, which is a manifestation of enlightenment."
"Their hands are all 'thin' and calloused"
And the fingertips were dim, as if there was a bad breath lingering. This is characteristic of frequent contact with antiquities. ”
"So if I'm not mistaken. Nine of them. Should it be Miss Dong, an expert who has been invited to appraise the value of antiques? Right? ”
As soon as Ji Lin's words came out, Shangguan Xue looked admiring, and playfully hugged her fists and smiled: "Brother Ji is talented, the little woman admires, admires!" ”
"Mr. Ji, what you said is right, these nine people. It is an important reason why Jiangshan Auction is strong. ”
"They are all grandmaster-level antique experts, and they are all people of the Tao."
"They are able to use the simplest means and time to accurately determine the approximate value of an antique." Assistant Xiao Zhao explained.
The reason why Jiangshan Auction can become the first auction in Xiangjiang.
In addition to the hardware being powerful enough, the most important thing is that there are a group of very powerful old men under his command.
Among them, the nine elders of the country are like the existence of the sea god's needle.
"When the auction starts, if you have any friends, you will have to discount the price of the antique. The Nine Elders will quickly judge the value. ”
Dong Xun'er's words really confirmed the speculation in everyone's hearts.
The nine elders of the country are well-known all over the world. The status in the auction is equivalent to the status of the four sages of the bamboo forest in the calligraphy world.
Such a person, even if their valuation is not entirely correct, is not much worse, and everyone will naturally have no objections.
"Since all the gentlemen have no objections, then this auction, the auction of the last finale, has officially begun."
"Master Rain, please." Dong Xun'er smiled and bowed, and stepped aside.
"Please." Master Yu nodded, and his majestic and old voice suddenly resounded throughout the audience: "The starting price of the Celestial Star Fragment is one million, and each time the price increases, it must not be less than one million." ”
"Thirty million!" Tang Da stood up, didn't give anyone a chance to breathe, and soared the price from one million to thirty million in one go.
30 million want to buy a fragment of the celestial star that can make people "immortal"? How is this possible!
However, Tang Da's move was indeed ruthless enough, and in an instant, many soy sauce beaters died down, and they could only watch the auction of forty-two sages.
"Eighty million!" As soon as the words fell, Cao Long's confident voice resounded throughout the audience, shaking everyone.
Generally speaking, the auction price is stacked up little by little under the guidance of the bidder.
But now that the auction has just begun, the price has actually completed a gorgeous double jump, is this too exaggerated?
The 42 sages who came to participate in the auction today are all from thousands of dollars.
But let them take 80 million to buy a stone in one go, which is not something that no one is willing to give.
Especially the young and vigorous generation, they are eager for the Star Fragment, but they are not like the older generation, they must get it.
As soon as Cao Long's words came out, at least a dozen of the forty-two sages chose to remain silent.
"100 million!"
Just when everyone had not yet woken up from Tang Da and Cao Long's shouting, another voice sounded out of thin air, causing everyone to shake again.
"Miss Shangguan is really rich." Assistant Xiao Zhao was secretly speechless.
Xiao Zhao realized that although Shangguan Xue was very low-key in the company, this background energy was amazing, no wonder the company's senior management was respectful and polite to her.
Not only Xiao Zhao, but even Ji Lin looked at Shangguan Xue with a little more surprise, obviously he didn't expect that his righteous sister was still such a rich master.
"Brother Ji, my grandfather is old, and my father said that he may not have a few years left, so he ......," Shangguan Xue said with a smile.
"I see." Ji Lin nodded, Shangguan Xue was so filial, she was really a rare good girl.
"120 million." Cao Long disagreed and continued to increase the price.
The Cao family is a descendant of Wei Wu and a powerful person in Sijiu City, and Cao Long, as the second young master of the Cao family, is naturally not short of money.
When Yue Wumu wrote just now, if it weren't for Beichen Yumo's troubles, Cao Long would have wanted to buy it directly.
As for Guqin Jiaowei, Cao Long's skills are not as good as others, and he can't beat Beichen Yumo, so he can only endure it with hatred.
But now, if the Celestial Star Fragment can't be taken down, Cao Long understands that he can't go back to give an account to his three old men.
The three elders of the Cao family asked Cao Long to get Yue Wumu's letter at all costs, and Cao Long thought that he would go back to tragedy.
However, the appearance of the Celestial Star Fragment gave Cao Long the hope of making up for it.
"The three old men are all dying old men, they will definitely not be able to resist the 'temptation' and 'confusion' of immortality, this fragment of the heavenly star, I am bound to get it." The five-fingered fist was clenched, and Cao Long smiled gloomily.
"130 million." Unexpectedly, as soon as Cao Long's words fell, Tang Da's voice resounded in the sky again.
"Tang Da, you can't even afford Yue Wumu's calligraphy, where did you get so much money?" Cao Long was a little angry.
The Cao family is rich, but 120 million is already Cao Long's limit.
It is very rare to have such a large number of antiques at auction.
Cao Long's figure has actually been refreshed, the price of a single antique at the Jiangshan auction.
But now, Tang Da actually came to raise the bar again, how can Cao Long not be angry?
"In terms of financial resources, I am naturally inferior to you, Brother Cao, but I am the reincarnation of Tang Bohu, and the most important thing in my Tang family is antiques."
Tang Da snapped the folding fan and shook it, and said something that made Cao Long's face change and he was a little depressed. (To be continued......)
