Chapter Seventy-Six: Bidding
"Liyuan Dan Danfang, the final bid price is 170,000 gold coins, and the winner is a guest in the seventeenth room on the second floor. ”
Another round of auction is completed, and the auctioneer shouts out the final auction information.
Nali Yuan Dan is a kind of pill that can improve the success rate of martial artists in the late stage of the Yuan Qi Realm to condense the Yuan Dan, once the refining method is mastered, the benefits are very great.
Therefore, this round of auctions was also very intense, and the reserve price of 10,000 was called to 170,000.
In addition to this pill formula, a lot of good things have been sold before, all of which are related to alchemy, refining, talismans, and arrays.
During the whole process, Su Qin did not participate in any bidding, firstly, because he did not encounter anything urgently needed, and secondly, he was also short of money.
Those two weapons, although Yu Lu said that they could be converted according to the price of 150,000 to 200,000 gold coins, Su Qin himself preferred not to sell them, after all, taking them back to the Su family can be regarded as two treasures of the town clan, whether it is for the elders or cousins, it is much more cost-effective than exchanging them for gold coins.
He did not participate in the bidding, and Yu Lu, who was sitting on the side, did not force anything, but patiently helped explain the value of each auction item, and what he said was much more detailed than the auctioneer's introduction, and even said whether the final price of each auction item was suitable or not.
Su Qin also learned from this woman's character, which belongs to a very straightforward type, but she has the shrewdness of a businessman's child, and the only flaw is that her figure and appearance are not very pleasing.
"Brother Su Qin, why haven't you liked anything after watching it for a long time?"
Yu Lu was also tired of talking, and drank a bowl of tea in a big gulp, and a clear "grunt" sound came out of her throat, and then said.
"Not really, I just don't think it's necessary to spend that much money, and I really don't really need it. Su Qin smiled, and seemed to be very useful to Yu Lu's behavior as if he was a rough man.
"Hehe, don't laugh at me, I'm used to it. Yu Lu was also a little embarrassed, grinned, and although the action of putting down the tea bowl was still bold, it had obviously been significantly restrained.
"It's okay, Miss Yu's temperament is very much in line with my appetite, if you are not a woman, I want to kneel and bow to you. Su Qin said honestly.
"I wish I was a man, but unfortunately I can't change that. There was regret in Yu Lu's tone.
Then she shook her head again and said, "Forget it, don't talk about this, wait a minute, if you really have something you like, tell me, I will ask for you the price, if the price is too high, it will waste your money in vain, I will stop it in time, and then help you find another way, how about it?"
"It's okay, I'm tired. Su Qin did not shirk.
In fact, he also knew that he was not familiar with the rules in the auction room, and now he had been observing the situation, trying to figure out how to bid.
But no matter how smart he is, it's hard to learn this kind of thing at once, let alone experience it.
Yu Lu also vaguely guessed this, so she offered to help.
"Alas, what does Xia Qianping like about me? If you have to send me one big favor after another, it will not be easy to return it in the future. Forget it, let's look at the present, and see if there is any chance to return the love of this eldest lady first. Seeing Yu Lu's extraordinary enthusiasm, Su Qin felt a burst of emotion in his heart.
As he thought, the auctioneer called out an auction item that immediately made him prick up his ears.
"Xinyue Grass, newly harvested from the Wushan Mountains, is well preserved, and refining the elixir immediately after buying it today will definitely preserve the effect to ten out of ten. ”
The auctioneer held up a small herb in the brocade box and displayed it in a circle in each direction, allowing the soul cultivators present to observe and judge.
Suddenly, among the people sitting on the first floor, seven or eight of them all showed interested expressions on their faces, and their soul power was released, and they all swept towards the herbs.
This is also a unique observation method for soul cultivators, and the judgment of soul power is always more accurate than visual sight.
"It's really freshly picked, and the rhizome is still very full. ”
"It's really not easy, Osan is not close to Liucheng, and the person who picked it really bothered to keep this medicine so well. ”
"Hmph, it's nothing, as long as there is a storage magic weapon, throw it inside, it won't rot lightly, and it's okay to put it for ten or twenty years. ”
"You're wrong, after the Heart Moon Grass is picked, not only must it be carefully preserved, but it must also not be collided, otherwise the medicinal effect will be lost very quickly. ”
Those people talked about it, and they obviously all had the intention of buying it.
And there were also three or four soul powers extending out in the second layer, lingering around the herbs for a while before slowly retracting them.
Su Qin was no exception, and he also released his soul power to observe.
He had been thinking about helping his father treat his injuries, and this Xinyue grass was the main material he first got the news, so how could he not be concerned at this moment.
"It turns out that there are so many ways to pick the heart moon grass, but fortunately, when I first went into the mountains to look for it, I didn't find it, otherwise if I picked it rashly, I would definitely waste most of the medicinal effect, how could it be kept so intact. But it's hard to get it now, so many people have the intention of bidding, and I really don't know how much it will cost to buy it. ”
While observing with his soul power, he also "listened" to the conversations of some people and understood the special features of Xinyue Grass.
Although Yu Lu had not cultivated soul power and did not know about his observations, she also sensed Su Qin's intentions and immediately said, "Brother Su Qin, do you want this herb very much?" ”
"Okay, thank you. But if you try your best, it's nothing if you can't shoot it. ”
Su Qin knew that although he had to owe favors, he should still have the necessary politeness.
At this time, the auctioneer had already quoted the reserve price of the Heart Moon Grass, five thousand gold coins.
"Ten thousand!"
Yu Lu was full of anger, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he doubled the price.
But Su Qin understood that she was not cheating herself, but trying to put pressure on others who tried to bid from the momentum, showing that she had full confidence to auction off the herb, so that those who did not have much money to squander would directly withdraw from the competition.
Sure enough, several people on this lower floor all showed painful expressions, as if they felt that it was not worth spending 10,000 gold coins to buy only one herb.
When the auctioneer heard his young lady's voice, he was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and hurriedly said: "The guests of room No. 3 on the second floor have already paid 10,000 gold coins, and if there are no other guests participating in the bidding, this heart moon grass will be owned by the guests of room No. 3." ”
He actually understood that he wanted to directly make a final decision and sell the herbs.
Although the price of 10,000 gold coins was too cheap for such a well-preserved Heart Moon Grass, since the eldest lady could personally help to bargain for the price, he was fortunate to help achieve this favor.
However, although he thought well, the other guests were not so cooperative, and someone immediately shouted out 11,000 gold coins to continue to raise the price.
"Only add 1,000 gold coins, this is the bottom. Yu Lu snorted, two thick breaths erupted from his nostrils, and then shouted in a louder volume than just now, "Fifteen thousand!"
"The number of guests in room three has been increased to fifteen thousand!"
The auctioneer is a shrewd person, and he knows that since the eldest lady dares to shout like this, in addition to giving favors, most of the real guests in the room also have some money strength, otherwise they will not be silent.
"Sixteen thousand!"
The previous voice reappeared, still only adding a thousand gold coins.
Su Qin didn't pay attention to it the first time, but this time he had already heard that the sound was coming from a room diagonally opposite, and the room number was estimated to be between eight and ten.
Fang Yu Lu took the time to introduce to him, the rooms on the second floor are also divided into a certain level, one to three is a level, the guest status is the highest, second only to the one who can enter the top room, and the fourth to ten is a level, which means that the guest is at least holding a platinum card, as for the back room, it is not much different, and the gold card guests can enter, but they have to pay a certain fee.
"Twenty thousand!"
Yu Lu is still full of confidence.
"Twenty in one!"
The man seemed to be on a par with her.
But before Yu Lu could continue to bid, a voice came from another room: "Twenty-five thousand!"
"Which one doesn't open his eyes and dares to rob me of my price?"
Yu Lu is a straight person, and he stood up in a hurry.
In fact, twenty or thirty thousand gold coins are nothing to her, but she took the initiative to help Su Qin bargain, but she was obstructed one after another, and she couldn't get by on face.
This is also what she is used to in Liucheng on weekdays, relying on the support of her father and the signboard of the Jiuxia Chamber of Commerce, but not many people provoke her, and she doesn't even dare to criticize and judge her appearance at will, which naturally makes her develop a lot of temper, and when she gets along peacefully, it is okay, but once she is provoked, it will immediately be like hot oil falling on Mars.
"Thirty-five thousand!"
She directly raised it by 10,000 this time, which made Su Qin feel a pain in his flesh, after all, he was the last to pay for this money.
But this time, the people in the two rooms also quieted down, as if they saw Yu Lu's determination to auction off the Heart Moon Grass.
"Thirty-five thousand, thirty-five two, and there is no bidding......?
The auctioneer saw that the opportunity was right and hurried to drop the hammer.
But before he finished shouting "35,53 times", a voice suddenly came down from the second floor: "I'll give 40,000!"
Rise!
Yu Lu was about to sit back in her chair, but the change made her jump up again, and she took two steps to the window, staring at the room where the voice came from.
The rooms here are inlaid with a special material on the inward windows, so that you can see the outside at will, but from the outside you look inside it is always dark.
This is also a form of privacy protection for higher-status guests.
But Yu Lu's gaze seemed to be able to see through the material, and he didn't continue to ask, just stared at that side.
"Is that room No. 1?" Su Qin was not stupid, he noticed that the situation was different, and quickly cast his gaze over, because that room was not far from here, and he quickly judged the other party's number.
He immediately understood that the situation was different, the person who could enter the No. 1 room must also have a high status, and he also intentionally or unintentionally raised the price when the auctioneer was about to drop the hammer, obviously suspected of finding fault.
He didn't believe that the person who could enter Room 1 would not recognize Yu Lu's voice at all.
Sure enough, after being silent for a long time, Yu Lu suddenly said in a deep voice: "The surname Song, Song Qi, do you want to make trouble with me?"
