Chapter 22: A Thousand Dollars Buy Knives
There are only ten taels of silver, but now the starting price of this Qinglong Glaive Knife is fifty taels of gold, which is dozens of times more expensive, and the final transaction price must be amazingly high! ”
Zhang Feide said without hesitation: "In order to build the second brother into a new generation of sword kings, and become famous all over the world like his ancestor Guan Yu, no matter how expensive the knife is, even if it is to take off the pants, you must shoot this Qinglong Yanyue knife!" ”
Seeing that he was so resolute and decisive, it was quite a bit of a ruin, Xue Wuxian and Qin'er were quite moved, and they were determined to help him and help him shoot the Qinglong Yanyue Knife.
However, Guan Wenchang cried with a sad face, kept sighing, and complained in his heart: "Oh, Zhang Feide, this idiot, I am just Guan Yu's descendant, and I am not the ancestor Guan Yu, buy such a big knife for me, do you still want me to pass five levels and kill six generals?" This knife is heavier than the Blue Dragon Glaive Knife back then, so it's no wonder if it doesn't crush me to death! ”
Seeing his bitter face, Xue Wuxian knew what he was thinking, and wanted to make fun of him, but he felt that this was tantamount to falling into a well, so he couldn't bear it, so he didn't say anything.
At this time, in order to take the Qinglong Glaive Knife, Zhang Feide had already quoted the price of one hundred taels of gold.
The tattooed man immediately changed his color and said loudly: "I will give one hundred and fifty taels of gold!" ”
Zhang Feide saw him raising the bar with himself, and was about to make an offer, but then he heard someone say: "I will pay one hundred and eighty taels!" ”
Immediately someone said: "I'll give two hundred taels!" ”
"I'll give you two hundred and twenty taels!"
"I'll give you two hundred and thirty taels!"
"I'll give you two hundred and fifty taels!" ……
For a while, the sound of quotations came and went, and there was no need for Liuyuexin's sensational performance, Liuyuexin just maintained an elegant posture on the auction table, looking at it with a smile.
Seeing that everyone was fiercely competitive, Zhang Feide didn't bother to pay attention to him, and let them compete.
However, as soon as the tattooed man made a bid, Zhang Feide immediately quoted a higher price based on the color.
When the auction of five hundred taels of gold was obtained, only Zhang Feide competed with the tattooed man, and Zhang Feide was still imposing, and the price was increased at 5210 taels.
Worried that he would suffer a loss like this, and in the end he would not be able to afford the high price, Xue Wuxian reminded: "Brother Zhang, every time you only add one or two more gold or silver than him, otherwise you will not be able to afford it, even if you auction the Qinglong Glaive Knife, you will not be able to pay the auction price." ”
"Huh? Yes! ”
Zhang Feide was taken aback, woke up like a dream, and said: "Brother Traceless, fortunately you reminded me, otherwise I would have dug a pit and buried it myself, and I would have to be a big wrongdoer!" ”
So, when the tattooed man shouted out six hundred taels of gold, Zhang Feide immediately shouted: "I will give six hundred and one taels of gold!" ”
Not to be outdone, the tattooed man said loudly: "I'll give six hundred and fifty taels of gold!" ”
"I'll give you six hundred and fifty-one taels!" Zhang Feide said.
The tattooed man said: "I'll give six hundred and eighty taels!" ”
"I'll give six hundred and eighty-one taels!" Zhang Feide shouted loudly again, but only one or two gold more than the tattooed man.
When the tattooed man saw that Zhang Feide was always raising the bar with him, only one or two more gold than him, he couldn't help but be furious, his eyes flashed fiercely, and he said viciously: "Boy, you can't get along with me because you mean to!" Hmph, don't think you look like Zhang Fei, I'm afraid of you! ”
Zhang Feide had long seen that he was not pleasing to the eye, and when he saw him shouting, he immediately shouted: "Tattoo ghost, there is a kind of battle with me for 800 rounds!" ”
"Fight is war, who is afraid of whom?!"
The tattooed man put on a posture, and the person next to him hurriedly dodged away, freeing up an open space for him to fight Zhang Feide.
Seeing that the battle between the two macho men was about to break out, and the people around were waiting to see the excitement, Liuyuexin hurriedly stopped:
"Both, this is an auction house, and we want to ensure the safety of every guest, so we must not pick quarrels and provoke trouble here.
If there are any contradictions or grievances, after the auction, you can go outside to solve them, and if you leave Ling Tian Pavilion, we will not interfere! ”
Xue Wuxian and Qin'er were also worried that the fight here would destroy Ling Tiange's facilities, and they couldn't afford to accompany them when the time came, so they also persuaded Zhang Feide and told him not to be impulsive.
Zhang Feide and the tattooed man also knew that it would be expensive to fight here, and under the persuasion of Liuyue Xin, Xue Wuxian and others, they finally didn't fight, but they still looked at each other angrily, and began to bid for the Qinglong Yanyue Knife again.
However, when the tattooed man shouted out seven hundred and eighty taels of gold, Zhang Feide stopped talking.
It turned out that Zhang Feide found that he didn't have enough money, so he didn't dare to bid at a higher price.
On the presiding stage, Liuyue looked around the audience, and said with a smile: "That Mr. Cui bid 780 taels of gold to bid for the Qinglong Glaive Knife, who else is bidding for a higher price?" ”
However, the auction room was surprisingly quiet, and no one responded, and no one raised the price.
But think about it, although the Qinglong Glaive Knife is famous, it is too long and heavy, and it is inconvenient to carry, not everyone can make it, and even many people can't hold it, and it is almost the same to buy it as an ornament at home.
However, who is willing to spend a few hundred taels of gold to buy a knife back as an ornament?
Seeing that no one responded, Liuyue raised the auction hammer and knocked it, saying, "Seven hundred and eighty taels of gold once, has anyone increased the price?" If not, after three knocks, this world-famous Qinglong Glaive Knife will be owned by that Mr. Cui! ”
Seeing that the Qinglong Glaive Knife was about to arrive, the tattooed man surnamed Cui couldn't help but show a smug look on his face, only to see him looking at Zhang Feide proudly, with a strong sense of provocation, but Zhang Feide stopped talking.
Liuyuexin saw Zhang Feide's appearance, and also expected that he was poor in donkey skills and might not have more money, so he raised the auction hammer and knocked it again, and asked, "May I ask who else has increased the price?" This is already the second hammer, if no one raises the price, the final word, the Qinglong Yanyue Knife is the Cui Ye's! ”
However, seeing that the third hammer was about to strike, the huge auction hall was still silent, and no one quoted a higher price.
And Liuyuexin is not in a hurry to hit the third hammer, just waiting quietly, she wants to wait for a miracle to appear, hoping that someone will break the deadlock and quote a higher price, which is what every auctioneer is looking forward to.
Thinking that Zhang Feide insisted on buying a knife for himself, Guan Wenchang was angry, and when the auction was deadlocked, he also shouted in a mixed voice: "I will pay eight hundred taels of gold!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the stone was shattered!
Seeing that he had been silent, thinking that he was not interested in the Qinglong Glaive Knife, he didn't expect that as soon as he opened his mouth, he offered a sky-high price of eight hundred taels of gold, and Xue Wuxian and Qin'er were almost stunned.
Zhang Feide was even more stunned, looking at Guan Wenchang blankly, and didn't know what to say for a while?
Liuyue Xin was overjoyed, bowed to Guan Wenchang, and the graceful and charming scenery was shown again, and he lost no time in saying: "Everyone, this VIP who looks like Guan Yunchang has opened eight hundred taels of gold to take this Qinglong Glaive Knife."
The sword with the hero is really a match made in heaven and enviable. Is there anyone else willing to pay a higher price? ”
As before, people just looked at Guan Wenchang expectantly, and no one raised the price for a while.
Guan Wenchang couldn't help but secretly complain, and he couldn't help sweating on his forehead, because he didn't have that much money at all, and he couldn't take out eight hundred taels of gold at all, he just shouted nonsense, but he didn't expect that no one would bid.
"What to do? What to do? Even if I sell Guan Wenchang, I won't be able to take out eight hundred taels of gold! ”
Looking at Guan Wenchang's anxious and anxious sweating appearance, Zhang Feide seemed to see through his thoughts, and hurriedly comforted: "Second brother, don't be afraid, there is still me, our brothers' money can still pay eight hundred taels of auction money together!" ”
Xue Wuxian and Qin'er also said: "Although we don't have much money, we are willing to do a little bit!" ”
Seeing them so righteous, while being moved, Guan Wenchang was complaining in his heart, secretly complaining about himself, asking for his own hardships, and really digging a pit and burying it by himself.
However, when Liuyue's heart was about to ring for the third time, and was about to be finalized, the tattooed man finally spoke again, only to hear him say: "I will give eight hundred and fifty taels of gold!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
Zhang Feide received the assistance of Xue Wuxian and Qin'er, and his waist stiffened again, and immediately shouted in color: "I will give nine hundred taels of gold!" ”
"Wow, nine hundred taels of gold!"
"I added fifty taels of gold at once, it's really extraordinary!"
"The one surnamed Zhang is really powerful, not only has Zhang Fei's appearance, but also has Zhang Fei's courage, it seems that this Qinglong Yanyue Knife, he is determined to win!"
"Of course, he really fought to the end for the surname Guan, I don't know if the tattooed man can hold on? Can you still argue with Zhang Feide? ”……
In the midst of the uproar, I saw the tattooed man's voice trembling and quoting: "Nine hundred and twenty taels, I will give nine hundred and twenty taels!" ”
Seeing him like this, Xue Wuxian knew that he was close to the bottom line of his bearing, so he encouraged Zhang Feide and said: "Brother Zhang, that person surnamed Cui is about to be unable to hold on, you have to defeat him in one go and snatch the Qinglong Yanyue Knife over!" ”
Zhang Feide nodded, and immediately quoted: "I'll pay nine hundred and fifty taels!" ”
The tattooed man's eyes were red, as if he was about to burst into flames, only to see him stare at Zhang Feide hatefully, and said with a little difficulty: "I'm out of nine hundred...... Sixty taels! ”
Zhang Feide said righteously: "I'll give nine hundred and eighty taels!" ”
Not to be outdone, the tattooed man immediately raised his hand with his color and said, "I'll give nine hundred and ninety taels!" ”
The auction price of the Green Dragon Glaive Knife was about to reach 1,000 taels of gold, and the people in the auction hall were dumbfounded, looking at all this blankly, all wanting to see who the flowers would fall to and who could finally auction the Green Dragon Glaive Knife.
And Liuyue Xin also quoted excitedly: "Nine hundred and ninety-one taels, is there anyone who offers a higher price?" ”
Although she asked if there was anyone, her eyes were only on Zhang Feide alone, because she knew that Zhang Feide was the only one competing with the tattooed man now.
Under the gaze of the beauty's warm gaze, Zhang Feide said without hesitation: "I will give nine hundred and ninety-five taels of gold!" ”
When Zhang Feide reported nine hundred and ninety-five taels of gold, the Ling Tiange auction hall instantly fell into silence again, silent and audible.
After a while, the tattooed man's trembling voice sounded, and I saw him tremble and say, "I'm out of ...... Nine hundred and ninety ...... Six taels of gold! ”
Before the words fell, Xue Wuxian made a final decision, and said lightly: "One thousand taels, we will give one thousand taels of gold!" ”
As soon as this statement came out, it was earth-shattering!
