Chapter 31: The Auction of Deceitful Demon Beasts (Part I)

It wasn't until the half-pillar of incense was burned that the two demon beast appraisers of the Ouyang family and the Gongsun family came down from the stone platform slowly. The faces of these two elderly appraisers were not yet completely closed.

"Okay, now that the three major families have been identified, the next step is the key stage of this competition - the auction of demon beasts!" Wen Tianxiang said loudly with a folding fan in his hand: "Now the two elders will give the starting price of the three demon beasts respectively. ”

Elder Jin Yin took the information about the three-headed demon beast submitted by the relevant appraisers and looked at it. At this time, the appraisers of the Ouyang family and the Gongsun family respectively reported their respective appraisal results to the patriarchs who worked for them.

Ouyang Qing listened to the appraiser's report, stroked the not too long beard on his chin with satisfaction, and glanced at Situ Zhen with a smug gaze, quite a little mocking. And Gongsun Jie was obviously very satisfied with the results reported by the appraiser, with a smile on his face. Both of them set their eyes on Situ Zhen and wanted to see his jokes.

But what he didn't expect was that Situ Zhen was like the two of him who was so angry that he was going crazy just now, the expression on his face was not shocked, but there was a mysterious smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Ouyang Qing and Gongsun Jie with a blank face: Could it be that this Situ Zhen is stupid? Now that all kinds of circumstances are not in his favor, he can still laugh?

A moment later, Elder Jin Yin handed a document to a staff member and handed it to Wen Tianxiang on the stone platform.

Wen Tianxiang took the information and read it carefully, and then said loudly: "After evaluation, the starting price of the three-headed demon beast is as follows: the comprehensive score of the seventh-level Snow Wing Wolf King of the Gongsun family is eight points, and the starting price is 40,000 gold coins, and each bid shall not be less than 1,000 gold coins; ”

After Wen Tianxiang announced the starting price of the three-headed demon beast, the onlookers immediately exploded again and began to discuss.

Although this Snow Wing Wolf King is only a seventh-level demon beast of the ground level, it is better because it has special abilities, so the comprehensive score is one point higher; and the Black King Kong is an eighth-level demon beast of the ground level, which originally has eight points, plus the practicality of the Xuanli crystal nucleus, it also has to add one more point; only the Tiger Ape King is useless except for being a seventh-level demon beast of the ground level, and the comprehensive score is only seven points, so the price is also the lowest.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the main key to this auction is the black King Kong. If none of these three demon beasts can produce the Xuanli crystal nucleus, then as long as they bid for the Black King Kong, they can get the highest score, and they will naturally win the final victory.

However, this beast hunting competition of the three major families is not an ordinary competition, and there are special rules for this auction. Wen Tianxiang cleared his throat and said, "In the first stage, we scored seven points for the Gongsun family, eight points for the Ouyang family, and seven points for the Situ family. Now transfer the ownership of these three monsters to the Chamber of Commerce, and the money from the auction belongs to the Chamber of Commerce. The above rules are formulated by the Chamber of Commerce, and if the three parties are dissatisfied, they can raise objections or cancel the auction. ”

At this stage, it is absolutely impossible for the Ouyang family and the Gongsun family to cancel the auction, but the Situ family is at a complete disadvantage, and it is unknown whether they will give up the qualification for the competition. Therefore, Ouyang Qing and Gongsun Jie both looked at Situ Zhen with interest.

Situ Zhen said lightly: "Situ has no objection!"

"Brother Situ seems to be determined to win!" Ouyang Qingyin said compassionately.

"Maybe Brother Situ still has a killer weapon that hasn't been shown!" Gongsun Jie said sarcastically.

"Until the last minute, no one knows who will win or lose. Situ Zhen said indifferently.

"Since the three parties have no objections, then the auction will begin!" Wen Tianxiang closed the folding fan, held it in his hand, and used it as an auction hammer: "The auction is carried out in the order of first come, first served, first of all, the Snow Wing Wolf King of the Gongsun family, the starting price is 40,000 gold coins, and the bidding ladder is 1,000 gold coins, and now the price will begin!"

"I'll give 45,000 gold coins!" Gongsun Jie was the first to respond to the price, and the price was 5,000 gold coins, and the civilian audience present was stunned one by one, 5,000 gold coins are enough for an ordinary civilian family to live a life in peace.

"I'll give you 48,000 gold coins!" Ouyang Qing also started bidding with a smile on his face.

Gongsun Jie glanced at Ouyang Qing, knowing that this Ouyang Qing was hiding a knife in his smile, the black King Kong in his house was obviously the highest scorer, and now he was involved in bidding for the Snow Wing Wolf King just to raise the price and let him spend more money to buy his own things back.

"Brother Ouyang, please be merciful to your subordinates!" Gongsun Jiepi said with a smile, but his tone sounded like he didn't mean to show weakness at all.

"Haha, Brother Gongsun is joking, right?" Ouyang Qing said with a haha: "There is no rule in this auction that you can only buy one demon beast, if you have the ability, you can completely auction off all three demon beasts, then you will win." ”

"Hmph, be a man and leave a line, we will see you in the future, Brother Ouyang!" The corner of Gongsun Jie's mouth twitched, and he raised his hand to increase the price again: "I'll give 50,000 gold coins!"

"Mr. Gongsun has come out with 50,000 gold coins! 50,000 gold coins ...... for the first time" Wen Tianxiang slapped his palm with a folding fan, indicating the first blow of the mallet.

"I'll give out 60,000 gold coins!" Suddenly, a loud voice sounded beside Ouyang Qing and Gongsun Jie, but it was Situ Zhen.

"Sixty thousand gold coins!" Mr. Situ bid sixty thousand gold coins!" Wen Tianxiang shouted loudly.

"Brother Situ, do you want to join in the fun?" Gongsun Jie's face began to become a little ugly.

"Brother Gongsun, this is an auction, if we don't bid, is the auction still interesting?" Situ Zhen had a slight smug look on his face, but he said it as if nothing happened, which made Gongsun Jie's mouth twitch with anger, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only raise his hand again: "I'll give 65,000 gold coins!"

"I'll pay 70,000!" Ouyang Qing raised the price again.

"Just, I'll give 80,000!" Situ Zhen shouted.

Gongsun Jie was already holding back his old face and turned red, but he could only bite the bullet and continue to shout: "Eighty-five thousand!"

"Ninety thousand!" Ouyang Qing shouted with a smile without kindness.

"One hundred thousand!" Situ Zhen shouted the price again as if nothing happened, and he had already raised the price to an upper limit. The Snow Wing Wolf King's starting price was only 40,000, and it had doubled in just a few rounds. 100,000 gold coins to buy a ground level seventh-level snow-winged wolf king has already lost, but in the beast hunting competition of the three major families, it has not yet reached the peak, who knows that this snow-winged wolf king can not bring the final victory, as long as he wins the game, the three-year decision on major events can still make up for it.

"100,000 gold coins! Mr. Situ bid 100,000 gold coins, this is the upper limit of the Snow Wing Wolf King, and if you increase the price, it will far exceed the value of the Snow Wing Wolf King!" Wen Tianxiang slapped his fan as he explained: "100,000 gold coins for the first time...... 100,000 gold coins for the second ......"

"Brother Situ, it seems that you are going to determine this Snow Wing Wolf King?" Ouyang Qing was not stressed at all, but looked at Situ Zhen with some amusement and asked.

"Hehe, it depends on whether Brother Gongsun is willing to cut his love!" Situ Zhen said with a hint of a smile on his face.

"Hmph!" Gongsun Jie snorted coldly, and his hands in the audience trembled a little, 100,000 gold coins, if he continued to scream, he would have to cry, but thinking about the potential benefits that the Snow Wing Wolf King could bring, Gongsun Jie had to continue to shout: "120,000!"

As soon as he finished shouting, he immediately turned to Situ Zhen, and said with a cold and terrifying expression: "Brother Situ, if you shout again, this snow-winged wolf king and my father-in-law Sun Jie will not want it!"

"Hehe, since Brother Gongsun has said so, then Situ is not easy to win people's love, this Snow Wing Wolf King will be given to Brother Gongsun!" Situ Zhen said with a smile, with a nonchalance on his face, he saw that Gongsun Jie wanted to kill in his heart, and turned to look at Ouyang Qing.

Ouyang Qing naturally wouldn't be bored with himself, anyway, his goal was achieved, and he raised the price of the Snow Wing Wolf King by three times at once, which was enough to make Gongsun Jie feel distressed and dripping blood, so he waved his hand and said: "Since Brother Situ has agreed, I, Ouyang Qing, will naturally not snatch love with a sword, haha! Congratulations, Brother Gongsun, the Snow Wing Wolf King is yours!"

A heavy stone in Gongsun Jie's heart finally fell to the ground, but he couldn't help but feel sorry for the 120,000 gold coins.

"120,000 for the first time, 120,000 for the second time, 120,000 for the third time! Congratulations to Mr. Gongsun, who took the 7th level Snow Wing Wolf King with 120,000 gold coins! Wen Tianxiang pushed the auction scene to a peak with excited words, and the entire venue was lively. This chamber of commerce auction could only be seen in a high-end place like an auction, but today's competition between the three major families can give these civilians a glimpse of the majority of the audience, and the atmosphere must be lively.

At the end of the first phase of the auction, Situ Zhen looked up in the direction of the Situ family, only to see the ragged and unkempt young man standing in the crowd, quietly giving a thumbs up to this side.

Situ Zhen also smiled slightly, and at the same time secretly said in his heart: Raising prices is not beneficial to the three major families, and in the end, it is just a cheap chamber of commerce...... What does this Chu Xinghe want to do?

"Okay, now enter the second stage of the auction, the second demon beast is the Ouyang family's eighth-level Black King Kong!" Wen Tianxiang said loudly: "The starting price is 50,000 gold coins, and the bidding ladder is 1,000 gold coins, and now we will start to pay the price!"

This black King Kong is the main object of this auction, and no matter which family competes, it will bring great advantages. At present, the Gongsun family is seven points plus eight points equal to fifteen points, and the Ouyang family is eight points, if you get this black King Kong, it will be seventeen points, which will be the highest score, and the Situ family is now seven points, plus the black King Kong is sixteen points. Of course, if the Gongsun family even won the Black King Kong, then the victory or defeat would be one-sided, but the Ouyang family and the Situ family would never let this happen.

"I'll pay 100,000 gold coins!" The first person to pay the price was Ouyang Qing, and as soon as this guy opened his mouth, it turned out to be a sky-high price, which doubled.

The audience was boiling.

"100,000 gold coins!" Wen Tianxiang shouted excitedly: "Mr. Ouyang's price is 100,000 gold coins, doubling the starting price of Black King Kong at once! 100,000 gold coins ...... for the first time."

"It seems that Brother Ouyang is a scheming man!" Situ Zhen said indifferently.

Gongsun Jie's face suddenly became extremely difficult to see, and he was so angry that he almost killed someone.

"This Ouyang Qing raised the price so high all of a sudden, just to cut down Gongsun Jie in one round, so that he didn't dare to respond to the price, the Snow Wing Wolf King just now had already made him suffer, at this time, the price of Black King Kong was so high, he would definitely look forward and backward! This Ouyang Qing is really an old fox!" Chu Xinghe thought secretly in his heart, but there was an unfathomable smile on his face, because everything was going on in an orderly manner according to his plan.
