Chapter 147: Courage
"The first item to be auctioned in this auction is ......" Mo Jiayan's expression was excited, and his voice suddenly raised, "Purple Light Sword!"
As soon as Mo Jiayan's voice fell, the staff of the auction house took out a long sword that looked very simple in appearance, and there was indeed a faint purple light lingering on the surface of this sword.
Moreover, from the sword, there was also a hint of coldness.
"This purple light sword, once the sword of a great spirit master's powerhouse, sharpens iron like clay. If an ordinary cultivator gets this sword, he will definitely be like a fish in water, and his strength will rise greatly. Hehe, I think you know better than I do about the importance of weapons. Then, the reserve price of this purple light sword is five thousand gold coins, and each time the price increases, it must not be less than one hundred gold coins!"
"Huh~"
The staff member holding the purple light sword pulled out the sword body at once, and the cold light in the venue suddenly shone.
"A good sword indeed!"
In the crowd below, someone whispered.
Xia Yan looked at Yafen beside him, and he was also a little moved by this sword. The long sword he uses now is still the one that Bai Rui gave him with the more delicate one. If you can have a good weapon at hand, your strength will indeed improve a lot.
However, Xia Yan now has a special ore and the heart of clear water, and when he arrives in Purple Leaf City, he may be able to find a blacksmith to make the heart of clear water into a weapon.
Thinking of this, Xia Yan couldn't help frowning with some hesitation.
"Mr. Lingluo, do you want to buy this sword?" Yafen asked with a smile when she saw Xia Yan's expression.
Xia Yan nodded, and didn't hide it: "I do lack a good weapon to take advantage of now, but it's not urgent, let's see!"
At this time, there were already people bidding in the auction room. The first to increase the price was a middle-aged man, who didn't look like a cultivator, he seemed to be a businessman.
Yafen smiled charmingly, and her slender fingers stroked her long black hair, "Although this purple light sword is good, it can't be called a real sword. ”
Shaking his head slightly, "The weapon that Mr. Lingluo will use in the future must be a real weapon, and this purple light sword is not worthy of Mr. ”
When Xia Yan heard Yafen say this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Miss Yafen said that I was joking, in fact, not long ago, the weapons I used were just ordinary goods that could be found everywhere in the blacksmith shops on the street. Even the sword used now is only a little better-made. ”
"The reserve price is a weapon with five thousand gold coins...... Xia Yan's eyes flickered, "Hehe, for me, it's already a rare sword." ”
While Xia Yan and Yafen were talking, the price of the purple light sword had been raised to eight thousand gold coins.
What made Xia Yan a little strange was that most of the people in the field who were bidding for this sword were actually businessmen-looking people, and those real cultivators had very few bids.
Yafen Mei rolled her eyes, looked at Xia Yan's eyes with some doubts, and said with a smile: "Mr. Lingluo should know why I said that this purple light sword is not suitable for you to use, right?"
Xia Yan was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "Miss Yafen, please explain." ”
Yafen said: "Actually, this purple light sword is made of high-grade ore purple light iron, although it is sharp, it is not suitable for the use of real powerhouses. It looks gorgeous on the outside, but the cultivator's weapons are used to kill people, and it is useless to look good. The reason why those merchants would pay a lot of money to bid was because they liked the magnificence of the sword. Cultivators, on the other hand, rarely spend a lot of money on such flashy things. ”
After a pause, Yafen pointed to Xu Gongzi, who was still in the corner, and said, "Mr. Lingluo will understand when he looks at the sapphire on that Xu Gongzi's body. ”
Xia Yan looked back, and Xu Gongzi was sitting in the corner and didn't seem to have recovered from the shock just now, so he nodded suddenly in realization.
The sapphire worn by that Xu Gongzi had no practical use for cultivators at all, but it was still expensive, and it was its gorgeous appearance that allowed many people to use it to show off their wealth.
Nodding, Xia Yan said honestly: "I understand, thank you Miss Yafen for telling me!"
The price of the Purple Light Sword was not very high, and the final transaction price was 9,400 gold coins, which was purchased by a merchant in Jade Water City.
The second item to be auctioned was a high-grade ore, and Xia Yan was not interested in ore, so he didn't pay too much attention to it. This piece of ore was finally auctioned by a cultivator from other places.
Although there were quite a few people in the auction room, there was no noise. The auction was also carried out in an orderly manner.
What Xia Yan is waiting for is Xueling grass.
After buying the Blood Ling Grass, you can prepare a potion that promotes the growth of the Gathering Spirit Acupoint.
After shooting more than a dozen items in a row, the blood grass still did not appear. And the four bottles of spiritual liquid that Xia Yan brought did not appear. This made Xia Yan feel more or less anxious.
"The items that will be auctioned below are, Qingyang Flower, high-grade medicinal materials!" Mo Jiayan stood on the front desk and said in a high voice.
Hydrangea is a high-grade medicinal herb that is very rare.
On the rare illustrated book, Xia Yan also remembered the hydrangea more clearly. This medicinal material is also a necessary ingredient for refining many high-grade pills, and like Xueling Grass, it is impossible to buy it in ordinary medicine shops, and it may only be auctioned off in auction houses.
Seeing the appearance of high-grade medicinal materials, Xia Yan couldn't help but be shocked.
For Xia Yan, these medicinal materials will definitely be used often in the future, so even if he doesn't need it now, Xia Yan wants to take pictures in case of emergency.
Seeing Xia Yan's eyes lit up, Yafen's snow-white chin was raised, and he whispered, "Mr. Lingluo, do you want to take a picture of this hydrangea?"
The staff brought out a white jade plate, and on the plate was a snow-white hydrangea plant, exactly the same as the one marked on the Treasure Book.
Xia Yan nodded, "This rare medicinal material, I'm afraid everyone wants it!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, this green hydrangea grows in the Qinglong Grand Canyon of the Sin Forest. The person who found it was a powerful spirit master. Hehe, the reserve price of this green hydrangea is-" Mo Jiayan's tone changed, and his eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice, "Ten thousand gold coins!"
"Mr. Lingluo, in fact, in an auction house like our county, the bidding for medicinal herbs is not very enthusiastic. Yafen shook his head and said to Xia Yan.
"Why is that?" Xia Yan was a little stunned.
"Because, in our Jade Water City, there is already a great shortage of powerful spirit masters like Mr. Ling Luo, let alone alchemists. Do you think, if you buy this kind of high-grade medicinal material, can you buy it back and raise it? There is no alchemist refining the elixir, no matter how powerful the medicinal material is, it is useless!" The corners of Yafen's mouth curled slightly, "Besides, even if there are some people who can find an alchemist through the sky, but refining one elixir, the medicinal materials needed are not one or two. It's very difficult to find all the medicinal materials to refine high-grade pills!"
"I didn't say anything else!" Yafen continued, "Alchemist, you won't easily help others refine medicine, the price you need to pay for this is very high!"
Xia Yan's eyes had already brightened.
Originally, he thought that the competition would be fierce, but he didn't expect that because of the constraints in this county, there were almost no alchemists. So, how fierce is the competition?
If it was placed in a main city like Purple Leaf City, then the competition for this medicinal herb might be very fierce.
"Ten thousand twelve!"
An elder of the Xi family, bidding.
After all, the three major families are the three major families, and they all have some means. For this rare medicinal material, it is also a red eye.
"Ten thousand!"
The elder of the Wang family immediately added a thousand gold coins.
And the patriarchs of those second-rate families all shook their heads, it was useless for them to buy this high-grade medicinal material.
"Fifteen thousand!"
This time, it was Xia Lai, the great elder of the Xia family, who asked for the price.
"The final price of this hydrangea should be around 30,000!" Yafen smiled and whispered to Xia Yan.
"Thirty thousand gold coins? I have more than 500,000 gold coins now, which should be enough for me for a while. Xia Yan secretly said in his heart that the gold coin was just a number for him.
"Hmph, ten thousand sixteen!" the elder of the Xi family slowly got up from his seat, and the dead fish glared at Xia Lai, and shouted in a low voice.
When this number was reported, the elders of the Xi family were also a little proud!
"Thirty thousand!"
Suddenly, a voice rang out in the auction room.
The one who called out this price was Xia Yan, who was sitting in the first row. Xia Yan stretched out three fingers slightly, and said the number of 30,000 gold coins in his mouth.
When Xia Yan shouted, the entire venue was filled with the sound of gasping air.
It's not that 30,000 gold coins shocked these people so much, but Xia Yan actually increased the price of this hydrangea from 16,000 to 30,000 all at once.
Almost, directly on the basis of the original, doubled!
Even Mo Jiayan on the stage swallowed his throat at once and looked at Xia Yan in dismay.
Yafen even narrowed her mouth and glared at Xia Yan, "I said that the final transaction price of this hydrangea may be around 30,000 yuan, but how can you increase the price like this?
Yafen whispered in Xia Yan's ear in a resentful tone. The situation she said does exist, and sometimes the auction house even has a failed auction, but this kind of opportunity is too few and too few.
Xia Yan smiled and said: "This will end sooner, you see, as soon as I shouted this price, no one continued to increase the price!"
glanced at the audience, and no one continued to increase the price at this time.
Mo Jiayan stood at the front desk, and after a while, he came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "Mr. Lingluo bid 30,000 yuan, so, there are still people who offer a higher price?" If not, this blueflower is Mr. Lingluo's!"
Several of the church deacons sitting in the first row also turned sideways and said to Xia Yan: "Mr. Lingluo, what a lot of courage, this green sunflower must be none other than Mr. Lingluo!"
