Chapter 47: The Auction of Intrigues
"Spirit Weapon Molten Fire Sword, the starting price is 10,000 spirit jade, and the price increase cannot be less than 1,000 each time, and now the auction begins"
After Hu Lao finished speaking, he put the molten sword on the booth
Although Feng Hao saw the disadvantages of this sword, most of the people present did not have such refining attainments
As soon as Hu Lao put the sword on the booth, dozens of people began to increase the price, and in just a few tens of seconds, the price of the molten fire sword came to 50,000 spirit jade
When Feng Hao saw this scene, he couldn't help but smack his tongue, thinking that he had only saved more than a thousand spirit jade by working hard to complete various commissions, and now this defective product could be sold at such a price, which made Feng Hao a little jealous
In the end, the Molten Sword was auctioned off by a middle-aged man for 67,000 spirit jade
Feng Hao saw the middle-aged man's face full of excitement, and shook his head helplessly
"I knew that I would also make two weapons and sell them, and this kind of defective product can be sold so high."
The black-robed man in front of Feng Hao heard Feng Hao's voice, and his body trembled obviously, but because the second auction item had been taken out, Feng Hao, who had been watching the front desk, did not notice the abnormality of the black-robed man
"I don't need to say anything about the second item, you know what it is."
Hu Lao said, and took out a black spar
The black spar is the size of a palm, and the inside of the spar seems to be filled with countless special black gases, and the most bizarre thing is that this black spar seems to be absorbing the light around it, and the light around Hu Lao is obviously darkened a few seconds after the black spar appears
"The origin spar of the adult dark-descended amethyst tiger, there is already a prototype of the power of the law in the spar"
Feng Hao was also attracted by this spar at the moment, he had encountered the Dark-Descent Amethyst Tiger twice, he had already learned the strength of the Dark-Descent Amethyst Tiger, and the original Amethyst Tiger of the Dark-Descent of this spar must at least have the peak of the Fusion Dao, and the natal law of the Dark-descended Amethyst Tiger at the peak of the Fusion Dao will begin to continuously condense into the power of the law in the spar, and with the continuous enhancement of the sense of the law in the reincarnation realm, the power of the law in the spar will become more and more refined, until it reaches a pole, the Dark-descended Amethyst Tiger will break through the reincarnation realm and step into the stigmata realm where the law can be controlled, and at the same time begin to transform with the help of the power of the law
The spar of the transformed Dark-Descended Amethyst Tiger will become the second heart, so the original genus of this spar should be an adult Dark-Descended Amethyst Tiger above the peak of the Fusion Dao and below the peak of reincarnation
Han Ruyue saw that Feng Hao seemed to be very interested in this spar, so she asked, "Do you need me to take a picture?"
However, Feng Hao shook his head, although he was more interested, but this spar did not have a big effect on him
"The power of the law in this spar is only a rudimentary form, and using it to refine weapons will only be counterproductive."
Feng Hao originally wanted to use it to create a weapon suitable for Han Ruyue or Fox Mei'er, but the molding degree of this spar obviously could not satisfy Feng Hao's appetite, since it was to create a weapon for his lover, he naturally had to choose the best material
"This is the origin spar taken out from the forehead of a dark amethyst tiger who has just stepped into the reincarnation realm, because the inside of the spar has formed the rudiments of the power of the law, so whether it is used as a refining material or used to comprehend the law, it is the best choice, the starting price is still 10,000 spirit jade, and the price increase shall not be less than 1,000 spars, and now the auction begins."
Hu Lao didn't say much nonsense, most of the monks present could see the advantages and disadvantages of the materials taken from this kind of demonic beast, so naturally he didn't need to explain too many things
As soon as Hu Lao's words fell, a hoarse voice directly shook the audience
"Two hundred thousand spirit jade!!"
And the source of this voice turned out to be the black-robed man in front of Feng Hao
As soon as the black-robed man's bid came out, the audience was silent
It's not that others can't afford it, but it's really a loss to buy the spar of the Dark-Descended Amethyst Tiger that has just formed the rudimentary form of the law with 200,000 spirit jade
Although this spar is very valuable, it is not too rare material, and there are even many other things that can be substitutes for it, or even better than this spar
Because of the black-robed man's bidding, Feng Hao looked at the black spar again, and his brows furrowed slightly
He always felt that this spar was not so simple, and the black-robed man directly released this kind of price obviously because he didn't want others to rob him
"Like the moon, add a thousand"
Feng Hao said, his gaze still not leaving the spar
Han Ruyue glanced at Feng Hao in surprise, buying this spar for more than 200,000 yuan was undoubtedly an incomparably loss, but since Feng Hao let her do this, he naturally had his own ideas
Although Han Ruyue had many doubts, she still listened to Feng Hao's addition of a thousand spirit jade
"Two hundred and one thousand spirit jade!!"
However, before Han Ruyue's words fell, the black-robed man raised the price again, not by a few thousand, but by nearly fifty thousand
"Two hundred and fifty thousand spirit jade!!"
The black-robed man said, and glanced back at Feng Hao again
Under the black robe is not a human face, but a pure white mask, the mask perfectly covers the face of the black robed man, it seems that he does not want anyone to know his identity
"Keep adding!!"
Feng Hao didn't hesitate either, just now he had noticed a hint of difference in this spar, and he was now sure that this spar was not as simple as it seemed
Han Ruyue saw that Feng Hao was so determined, and she didn't say anything, her previous observation of the molten sword was enough to prove Feng Hao's attainments in refining, although Han Ruyue didn't see the difference in this spar, but through Feng Hao's expression, she also knew that there was probably something hidden in this spar that was discovered
"Two hundred fifty-one thousand jade"
Han Ruyue didn't increase the price too much, she had already figured out the means of auction after participating in several auctions, and each time it was only a little higher than before, which could not only minimize the cost, but also wear down the mentality of competitors
And the black-robed man obviously hesitated for a second because of Han Ruyue's continued price increase, but he only hesitated for a second before continuing to follow the price
However, this time the black-robed man was obviously smart, and he didn't raise the price all at once, and he only added a thousand spirit jade
"Don't worry, that's it, just add 1,000 and 1,000"
Feng Hao saw that Han Ruyue wanted to raise the price, and reminded softly
Hearing Feng Hao's words, Han Ruyue nodded slightly, and once again added another thousand spirit jade
"Two hundred fifty-three thousand spirit jade"
The others present also began to react at this time
If it was just the black-robed man who auctioned this spar at a price of 200,000, although it was a little loss, it was relatively normal
But at the moment, because of a spar whose value is obviously not so high, the two parties have handed over a price far beyond common sense, which makes others suspicious
Feng Hao heard the people around him start whispering, and a triumphant smile appeared on his face
He hadn't thought of going on with the black-robed man in a stalemate
As long as other people are involved, the price will inevitably increase, so that although there will be other competitors, it will save a lot of trouble compared to a little bit of stalemate
Sure enough, when the price of this spar increased to 260,000, someone finally couldn't sit still and began to try to bid
Although many people can't see the clues of this spar, it must not be a simple thing to cause a stalemate
As for price gouging, no one in the Xuanwu Auction House dares to do this kind of behavior that undermines the balance of the auction
What's more, Hu Lao was standing on the stage, if it was really a price gouge, Han Ruyue and the black-robed man would have been driven out long ago
"Two hundred and sixty-three thousand spirit jade"
It was a young monk who tried to make a bid, and although he knew that the spar might not be easy, he still asked carefully, after all, if he bought it back in the end, it would be no different from the usual spar, and the gain would outweigh the loss
"Cut!!270,000 spirit jade!!"
The black-robed man snorted coldly, obviously unhappy because of Feng Hao's behavior, but Feng Hao was also a normal bidder, and the black-robed man couldn't do anything, so he had to raise the price again
But this time it won't be as easy as before
Because of the first person to try, others also began to try to increase the price, but it was only a few thousand spirit jade each time, but it was enough
Because of the participation of several other people, the 270,000 shouted by the black-robed man quickly became 286,000
And the black-robed man obviously began to hesitate, according to this trend, this price will sooner or later exceed the bottom line of the black-robed man
On the other hand, Feng Hao did not panic at all, every time there was no one to increase the price, Han Ruyue would increase the price by 1,000, and the black-robed man had no choice but to continue to follow the price in order for this spirit jade not to fall into Feng Hao's hands
This formed a vicious circle that kept repeating the previous one, but the black-robed man didn't want Feng Hao to grab the spar that was originally favored by him
The black-robed man knew that since Feng Hao had bid with him without hesitation at the beginning, he must have already known the details of this spar, and this spar was extremely important to himself, so the black-robed man could only continue to follow
He didn't believe that Feng Hao would bid for such a piece of spar, and the rest of the funds would not be able to participate in the auction
After all, this is only the second item in the auction, and the more precious things are yet to come
The black-robed man turned his head and peeked at Feng Hao
To his surprise, this Feng Hao did not have any panic or hesitation at all, and his confident appearance made the black-robed man angry, but because of this occasion, he had no way to make a move, so he had to raise the price again, hoping that Feng Hao would retreat
"500,000 Spirit Jade !!"
The black-robed man suddenly raised the price that had just reached 400,000 to 500,000, which made the hall that was already extremely noisy quiet again
The 500,000 spirit jade made other people who wanted to try bidding give up completely
The auction had just begun, and no one was going to give up anything else for a spar that didn't look anomalous on the surface
Even Hu Lao on the stage was stunned for a moment because of the price called out by the black-robed man
With Hu Lao's qualifications, he naturally saw the difference in this spar for a long time, but because the owner of this spar auctioned it as an ordinary spar, Hu Lao didn't say much
What can be seen is naturally this blessing, even if no one can see it, he will not break it
This is also the code of conduct of their auction house
However, this 500,000 has exceeded its original price, although this spar is different, but it is only 400,000 spirit jade at most
Feng Hao saw that the black-robed man raised the price to 500,000, but he still didn't give up, and looked at Han Ruyue again
However, this action happened to be seen by the black-robed man who was peeking at it
Han Ruyue was about to bid when the black-robed man spoke again
"550,000 Spiritual Jade"
The black-robed man was almost in a state of gritting his teeth when he said this price, if Feng Hao still didn't give up, the black-robed man was ready to stop raising the price, 550,000 was already his most extreme price, even if it was 1,000 more, it would affect the next bidding for other items
Feng Hao saw that the black-robed man had raised the price again, and a triumphant smile appeared on his face
"No need to increase the price like the moon"
Han Ruyue was even more surprised when she heard Feng Hao's words
Even Fox Mei'er was completely confused by Feng Hao, obviously she kept raising the price for this jade, and now this price was obviously the last bid of the black-robed man, but Feng Hao suddenly gave up
"I don't want to auction this spar since the price was mentioned to 400,000 spirit jade, although this spar is a bit different, but at most it is between 400,000 and 450,000 spirit jade."
Feng Hao saw the puzzled expressions of the two girls and explained slowly
"Then why did you want me to increase the price just now??"
Han Ruyue still didn't understand what Feng Hao meant
The corners of Feng Hao's mouth grinned, and he smiled extremely happily
"Although I can't get it, it's too cheap to be picked up by others like this, so I'm just putting on a show just now, if no one really continues to raise the price, I will naturally stop you"
Feng Hao's words were not loud or small, and they were just heard by the black-robed man in front of him, more precisely, deliberately let him hear them
As Feng Hao expected, the black-robed man trembled angrily after hearing Feng Hao's words
"Brother Hao, isn't this a bit too much?"
Fox Mei'er looked at Feng Hao with some concern, she was worried that the black-robed man would come to trouble Feng Hao because of this matter
"Since you have done the act of cheating money with inferior products, you have to pay the price for this behavior, this is the bottom line of being a refiner!!"
Feng Hao said very seriously, not for the fox charmer, but for the black-robed man
In the process of bidding for the spar, through the strange behavior of the black-robed man, Feng Hao had already guessed his identity, which is why Feng Hao chose to deliberately calculate the black-robed man in the end
Not easily selling defective products or giving them to others is the minimum bottom line of being a refiner, although there is no explicit rule, but it has long become an unwritten rule in the Cambrian continent
And if this black-robed man guessed correctly, it was Ouyang Ye, the refiner of the molten sword and the apprentice of the chief refiner of the Xuanwu Kingdom
Ouyang Ye took out the inferior molten sword for auction, which made Feng Hao very unhappy, so he made this kind of behavior
Since Feng Hao has already done it, he naturally will not regret or retreat
"If you want to take revenge on me, you can accompany me at any time after the auction."
Feng Hao said coldly, not afraid of the identity of the black-robed man at all, even if it was Chang Feng, the chief refiner of the Xuanwu Kingdom, if he did something beyond the refiner's bottom line, Feng Hao would still choose to do it
