Chapter 16: Five million taels of gold

Wait until the Yunshang jade card starts to increase the price.

Zhao Chaoxi was surprised.

"The reserve price of Yunshang jade brand is 10,000 taels, and each increase must not be less than 10,000 taels."

Each price increase is a double of the base price, which is really a unique limited edition.

When it arrived, the atmosphere of the entire auction hall was pushed to a climax.

Silver taels have become more or less numbers, and those royal ladies only care about the price increase one by one, and they don't care about the size of the number at all.

The first jade plaque with incense on the red stove was auctioned at a high price of 160,000 taels.

Zhao Chaoxi counted silently in her heart, and when she waited for the eighth block to start bidding, she immediately made a move.

During the bidding process, an "interesting fact" happened.

As long as it is Xuanyuan Che, when he wants to win a jade card for Li Yanxi, Chu Qian will definitely raise the card and add 100,000 taels at a time.

After Xuanyuan Che stopped raising the price, Chu Qian also gave up neatly.

She was like a poisonous snake in hot pursuit, biting Xuanyuan Che tightly.

Xuanyuan Che was a little angry about this, and when he looked at Chu Qian warningly, Chu Qian raised a bright smile at him, which seemed to mean, "I just want to get your attention, His Royal Highness King Xiao." ”

Looking at Xuanyuan Che's deflated but helpless appearance,

Poof-

Zhao Chaoxi couldn't help laughing.

Finally, the seventh jade plaque was auctioned off.

Zhao Chaoxi immediately got up and told her card bearer, "The eighth jade plate must be kept an eye on me." ”

The next moment, something happened abruptly.

The auctioneer was suddenly summoned off the stage, and a moment later, she came to the stage to ask someone to place the jade plaque in the jade box.

When Zhao Chaoxi saw her move, he couldn't help but stand up anxiously directly.

{What's the situation?} }

{So is this still filmed?} }

{System, this...... How can I buy this? }

She was responded to by the mechanical sound of the system reporting an error.

[Didi——]

[The quest is detecting-]

{I obeyed, dropped the chain at the critical moment.} Zhao Chaoxi was ruthless.

After thinking for a moment, she gritted her teeth and sat back down.

What else can she do, she can't shoot it, she can't rob it, right?

In the face of everyone's bewildered eyes and doubts, the auctioneer raised his hand to signal silence.

"Ladies and gentlemen."

"The Yunshang Jade Plaque is temporarily suspended," the auctioneer said with a serious expression, she clapped her palms, "There is a special item, and the seller has asked for an immediate auction." ”

"For special reasons, we agreed to the seller's request."

After the auctioneer finished speaking, he paused,

"So, please play with a special product."

A huge iron cage rose from the center of the venue, and the iron cage was covered with a white veil, and the graceful figure in it was faintly visible.

The auctioneer stepped forward and lifted the white veil.

In the middle of the cage was a mermaid!

--

Suddenly, the eyes of the audience gathered, and they all gasped.

Zhao Chaoxi's eyes couldn't help but widen.

There was a lot of discussion in the auction hall.

"I'm good, this ...... This is true or false. ”

"It should be true, human fishtail, is this the legendary mermaid?"

"This mermaid's skin is as white as snow, and the scales on his lower body are much inferior, no different from grass carp."

The auctioneer looked around and couldn't help but chuckle when he saw the surprise in everyone's eyes.

"You're right, this is the legendary mermaid!"

Yes, in ancient legends, there lived such a race in the body.

Merfolk.

Legend has it that their tears can be turned into beads, blood can be used in medicine, flesh can be turned into lamps and candles for thousands of years, and food can lead to eternal life.

When he landed, the eyes of the buyers darkened, and the bottom of their eyes gradually became greedy.

Zhao Chaoxi was not interested, she only paid attention to when the Yunshang jade plate would continue to be auctioned.

What immortality or not, it's none of her business, she just wants to complete the task!

"This kind of creature that only exists in mythology, and the villain is also seeing it for the first time today." The auctioneer bowed slightly and pointed to the mermaid in the cage, "You know how precious it is. ”

"So, the reserve price given by the consignee is one million taels of gold!"

"The reserve price is one million taels of gold, and each bid price shall not be less than ten thousand taels of gold, and there is no upper limit."

The silver hammer in the auctioneer's hand had just struck the drum, and a man in yellow, who was richly dressed and pooped, screamed impatiently.

"One and a half million taels of gold! I'll give 1,500,000 taels of gold! ”

When he shouted, his face was hideous, and the whites of his eyes turned scarlet.

And he didn't stop in this life, and the next one shouted again.

Zhao Chaoxi looked down from the high platform, and the crazy and obsessive demeanor of people when they bid couldn't help but make her shudder.

Indeed, greed and lust can inspire the ugliest posture of people.

Zhao Chaoxi shook her head slightly, but she couldn't stand the drive of curiosity, she looked at the imprisoned mermaid.

The mermaid, the mermaid, the creature she had only seen in mythological texts before, actually existed in the world.

Silver chains glittering in the candlelight locked the merfolk's arms and tails.

The upper body of the mermaid is completely human.

She had loose black hair and a small face.

The thin willow eyebrows, long eyelashes tremble slightly, and under the slightly decadent eyes, there are pink pupils like exquisite crystals.

With a swan-like neck, the powder veil covers the upper body, leaking out the unbearable waist.

But then down, there is a fishtail that is very disturbing.

Pieces of dark and rough fish scales are embedded in the tail of the fish, forming a long arc with unsmooth lines, and the tails at the very end are uneven.

If you have good eyesight, you may be able to see a little bit of mud and sand on it.

Zhao Chaoxi was amazed by the mermaid's body, but she always felt that something was wrong.

Beside her, the fingers behind the back of the card bearer moved slightly, and a cold light flashed in his sleeve.

--

"There really is a mermaid in the world," Xuanyuan Che's eyes were nailed to the mermaid after the white cloth was lifted, "That book didn't lie to me, there really is a ......"

Li Yanxi, who was sitting next to him, closed his eyes and frowned when he heard this.

"Brother Che wants to buy this mermaid?"

"This ...... Xi'er ...... This king won't hide it from you," Xuanyuan Che's eyes flashed with memories, and he slowly spoke, "I really want to." ”

"Since Brother Che wants to, then shoot," Li Yanxi smiled softly, "Xi'er thinks that in this world, there is nothing that Brother Che can't do." ”

Xuanyuan Che looked at her smile, was stunned at first, and nodded as if he had received something affirmation, "Xi'er, you're right. ”

With that, Xuanyuan Che motioned for his raiser to follow.

Now the highest price is three million two thousand taels of gold, and the player asked, "Your Royal Highness King Xiao, what ——?is your bid?" ”

"Five million."

--

Zhao Chaoxi's hand holding the teacup shook and blurted out.

Xuanyuan Che was next door to her, and she could hear her voice louder, not to mention that the five million words were cool and domineering.

"Five million taels of gold!" The auctioneer shouted excitedly, "The Lord of Accord 15 will give five million taels of gold!" ”
