Chapter 35: The Auction (Part II)!

As soon as the reserve price of the 300,000 gold coins was announced, the auction hall was silent, and this reserve price excluded most of the nobles who did not have enough financial resources from the auction.

Many nobles have assets of more than 300,000 gold coins, but most of those are real estate, and even the big nobles will be heartbroken if they have to take out 300,000 yuan of circulating funds at once.

"Three hundred and one thousand gold coins!" Count Russell said slowly, after a moment of silence.

"Three hundred and fifty thousand gold coins!" a young voice sounded, instantly raising the reserve price by forty thousand gold coins, attracting the attention of Count Rusell.

It was a young man with dazzling blond hair, a handsome appearance, and a noble temperament all over his body, and Count Russell recognized this young man at a glance as the second son of King McCann of the Kingdom of Panturo, Merley!

"McCann's old thing can't sit still, this is a problem!" Seeing Myrey, Count Russell frowned, as a real fiefdom with a vast fief, he was not afraid of the royal family, but the royal family still had far more financial and material resources than him.

Seeing Count Russell looking this way, Myray also smiled and nodded to Count Russell. Before becoming a king, a mere prince was not much more noble than an earl with a large fiefdom.

"Four hundred thousand gold coins!" Count Russell replied lightly, and then mercilessly raised the price again to fifty thousand gold coins.

Hearing the high price of these 400,000 gold coins, even if the big nobles gathered here, they couldn't help but look sideways slightly, this is not an asset, but a huge amount of cash. In terms of assets, many big nobles own properties worth far more than 400,000 gold coins, but it is not easy to come up with so much cash at once.

There was silence in the auction room!

"500,000 gold coins!" At this time, a somewhat old voice came, raising the price of the colorful pearl to 100,000 gold coins in an instant.

Count Russell followed the voice, and found that its owner was an old man with a white beard, eagle eyes, and bloodshot eyes. This old man was none other than Chen Xiong, one of the two remaining real dukes in the Panturo Kingdom.

These two dukes were the founding fathers of the kingdom with His Majesty the King, and the three hundred years of being dukes allowed their families to accumulate a huge fortune.

For the aristocracy and the wealthy, it is difficult to buy an inch of time, and the charm of colorful pearls is far more important than money for those high-ranking and powerful old people.

"Five hundred and ten thousand gold coins!" Even though Chen Xiong's status was even more noble than that of Count Russell, Count Russell had no intention of giving up at all, and continued to quote a high price.

"Five hundred and thirty thousand gold coins!" Prince Myray also quoted a price.

"Five hundred and forty thousand gold coins!" quoted an earl from the kingdom of Panturo.

"Five hundred and fifty thousand gold coins!" Count Russell continued to quote a high price.

"600,000 gold coins!" Chen Xiong raised the price by 50,000 in an instant, Count Russell sighed slightly, reluctantly looked at the colorful pearls on the stand, and closed his eyes in pain.

600,000 gold coins is already the limit of Count Russell's fundraising, and if it continues, Count Rusell's family will have the danger of poor cash flow, as an excellent family leader, Count Russell can only give up the bidding in pain.

600,000 gold coins is already the psychological bottom line of many big nobles, and the last transaction price of the colorful pearl was only 300,000 gold coins. Of course, the last time the colorful pearls were fired, it was only 800 years, and the quality was far inferior to the thousands of years of colorful pearls.

The nobles present were all well recuperated, and there was no sign of any commotion in the auction hall, but they were paying more and more attention to what price the colorful pearls could be auctioned for this time.

"Six hundred and one thousand gold coins!" After a moment's hesitation, Prince Myray continued to quote.

"650,000 gold coins!" Chen Xiong said lightly, and raised the price by 40,000 yuan, showing his heart for the colorful pearls.

"700,000 gold coins!" Prince Myray gritted his teeth, and his face was a little pale and quoted a high price, 700,000 gold coins were already extremely close to his bottom line, and his father, His Majesty the King, only gave him the maximum amount of 750,000, and the excess part would be filled by himself. Of course, he could have chosen to give up, but then he would have been left with an unfavorable impression in his father's mind, and the precious throne would be one step away from him.

"Seven hundred and fifty thousand gold coins!" Chen Xiong continued unhurriedly, instantly raising the price of the colorful pearl by fifty thousand gold coins!

Zhao Feng sat in his place, and when he heard that the price of the colorful pearl had been raised all the way to the high price of 750,000 gold coins, his brows couldn't help but curl, and his heart was full of ecstasy.

750,000 gold coins This is a huge amount of money, Zhao Feng only earned six gold coins a year, and it took almost 120,000 years to earn enough 750,000 gold coins. With this huge amount of money, he will no longer have to worry about money in a short time.

"Seven hundred and sixty thousand gold coins!" After a moment's hesitation, Prince Myrey offered a price with a pale face, which was already the limit of what he could raise. As a prince, in addition to the expenses for maintaining his noble status a year, he also has an annuity of 3,000 gold coins at his disposal, which paves the way for his three-year annuity.

"800,000 gold coins!" Chen Xiong did not hesitate, and lightly quoted a higher price, instantly defeating Prince Mailei.

Hearing this sky-high price, Prince Myrey's face turned pale, and he hesitated for a moment, but remained silent. One hundred thousand gold coins, even if he could raise them through other means, would also make him fall into great passivity.

As soon as the sky-high price of 800,000 gold coins came out, the auction hall became silent again.

"800,000 gold coins for the first time!"

"800,000 gold coins for the second time!"

Jerreth exclaimed excitedly, the auction item of 800,000 gold coins was the most expensive auction item he had ever auctioned, except for the priceless artifacts created by the legendary gods, as well as some holy weapons that were held by the powerhouses of the Extreme Dao and would not be put up for auction at all.

"Eight hundred and fifty thousand gold coins!" Just as Jereth was about to drop the hammer and announce that the dust had fallen, an old voice drew everyone's attention.

Zhao Feng followed the voice, but it was an old man wearing the robes of the Archbishop of the Fire Temple, with an extremely long beard, kind eyebrows, and eyes full of wisdom.

Zhao Feng didn't know who this old man was, but Chen Xiong clearly knew that the person in front of him was Archbishop Poharai, one of the twenty-three archbishops in the Fire Temple, whose strength was comparable to that of the eighth-level magister in the magicians.
