Chapter 62: The Auction Begins

Let's say that after Ye Ling cured Zhang Buyu, the next day it will be the day of the auction.

On this day, Ye Ling took the invitation made of gold leaf early and entered the Dragon Star Chamber of Commerce.

This is a very large chamber of commerce, the interior decoration is simple and low-key, and there is no large amount of gold and precious stones to decorate the lintel like the Tianlu Academy.

At this time, the venue of the auction was being put up for the final arrangement, and Ye Ling and the other distinguished guests were all taken to the luxurious lounge in the Chamber of Commerce to wait.

Fruits, tea, and precious tobacco from foreign tribute are provided in the lounge for guests to pass the time.

Ye Ling is a martial cultivator, and he cherishes his body very much, so he will definitely not touch those tobacco.

He held a teacup and observed the people around him.

Uncle Jia also came early today, as a guest of honor who was also the highest level, he and Ye Ling were sitting together, and they were sitting on the chair at this time, swallowing clouds and mist, so unhappy.

When Ye Ling looked at him, he would take the initiative to avoid Ye Ling's gaze, and after being deflated twice in a row, Uncle Jia was no longer willing to have any conflict with Ye Ling.

As for what Zhang Bucheng revealed before, the third distinguished guest who bought the VIP seat has not yet appeared.

Extremely bored, Ye Ling raised his eyes and found that among the guests, there were several people who were very "conspicuous" in their dresses and styles.

Although they are dressed in merchant clothes, their hawk-like eyes, their habitual forward sitting posture, and the soft-soled marching boots under their feet all indicate their special status.

Spy.

And he is also a secret agent of the imperial court.

Back then, Duan Weishan said that his hands and eyes were all over the sky, and Ye Ling was still a joke.

Now it seems that this is true.

The other guests, on the surface, look kind and angry, but in fact, they also have their own little abacus in their hearts.

The seemingly peaceful auction is secretly surging with turbulent waves, crises and opportunities appear at the same time, and everyone is secretly gearing up.

Half an hour later, a slender waitress opened the door to the lounge and informed everyone that the auction hall had been set up and that it was ready to enter.

The most high-class guests like Ye Ling have someone to lead the way for them.

He followed the attendant to the second floor of the Chamber of Commerce, and after turning a few corners, he entered a mahogany door.

Entering the gate, he found that in front of him was a semi-open-air box about a zhang long and wide.

Under the fence of the box is the booth of the auction.

The view is so well designed that you can sit on the fence with no obstructed view and the auction booth below.

The entire auction hall is designed in the shape of a circle, and the guests surround the booth in a circle, and three first-class boxes are suspended above the heads of other visitors.

Not long after, Ye Ling saw that in the box in front of him on the left, a person dressed in black and wearing a black hat on his head appeared.

Even, under the black hat, he also put an extra layer of black cloth mask.

"It's really mysterious, on such a hot day, it's like a rice dump......ling," Ye Ling joked.

This is a woman wearing a light blue cross-collared dress walking from the walkway on the first floor of the venue.

This woman was born beautifully, with a pair of beautiful eyebrows, gentle with a hint of delicateness, cherry lips vermilion, and a slight pink on her cheeks, like a moist peach.

Behind her, followed by a male waiter, holding a lacquered wooden tray in his hand.

Ye Ling was in the high-class box, and his vision was from top to bottom, and he could see at a glance that there was a pill on the tray.

The woman in the long skirt walked to the center of the booth, and the entire auction hall instantly brightened, and some curious guests raised their heads, only to find that the glass ceiling above their heads was equipped with headlamps powered by spirit stones.

The gentle yellow light sprinkled down, and the elixir in the male waiter's tray rose with puffs of golden smoke, so that those laymen who were not Dan masters also knew that this elixir was not ordinary.

"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, I am the auctioneer of this year's Dragon Star Auction, Chen Yingying. ”

As she spoke, the woman bowed with a professional smile on her face and bowed to the distinguished guests.

Immediately after that, she no longer had any polite words and went straight to the theme of the auction.

Ye Ling liked this kind of rhythm that didn't drag the mud and water, dragging his chin, elbowing on the railing, and listening to Chen Yingying quietly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first auction item today is a top-grade elixir: Heavenly Man and Hedan!"

The pill is divided into four types: lower grade, middle grade, upper grade and best grade.

At the beginning, he took out the top-grade elixir, which showed that the items in the subsequent auction were even more rare and precious, and this Dragon Star Chamber of Commerce was really extraordinary!

"Heavenly people and Hedan......" Ye Ling silently read the name of the pill, a little hesitant in his heart.

The magic of this elixir is that it is both a treasure pill and a poison.

It can quickly expand the qi and blood and dantian capacity of a beginner martial artist to the level of a third-order martial artist in the Condensing Realm.

On the contrary, it can also reduce the qi, blood, and dantian capacity of a martial artist below the Human King Realm to the triple level of the Condensing God Realm.

The reason why Ye Ling hesitated was because this pill was a pretty good thing for Xiaotang.

However, he quickly dismissed the idea.

There are two reasons for this:

First, even if this pill is bought, it can't be taken immediately, because of its special effect, it is listed as a banned drug by the Tianlu School Palace, and it is not allowed to be taken before the preparatory class competition, otherwise it will be directly expelled from the school.

Second, since this pill itself has some toxicity, the martial arts qualifications of those who take it will be slightly impaired, affecting the upper limit of cultivation.

Xiaotang is a studious and smart child, and Ye Ling does not plan to let her get a rapid improvement by pulling out seedlings.

After giving up the idea of bidding for Celestial Man and Hedan, Ye Ling began to eat melon seeds to watch the play.

"Heavenly people and Hedan, the starting price, 100,000 gold coins!"

Burst.

Ye Ling almost didn't squirt out the tea.

This Dragon Star Chamber of Commerce is also too dark.

Although the Heavenly Man and Hedan are high-grade pills, its refining formula is not complicated, and for martial artists above the Condensing Realm, there is no need to demand it, and it can be regarded as a medicine with no price.

100,000 gold coins, it's really a lion's mouth.

In the seats below, the sound of sparse bidding sounded.

"One hundred and eleven thousand. ”

"One hundred and two thousand. ”

According to the rules of the auction, the minimum amount of each bid is 1,000 gold coins.

Ye Ling moved his gaze to the two in the stands above.

On the side of the masked man in black, he was reclining by the pillar of the box, his arms folded, and he looked like he didn't care about himself, obviously not planning to bid.

Uncle Jia looked very embarrassed, and the bidding card in his hand was raised and put down.

To be honest, for Uncle Jia's stupid son, Tianren and Hedan are indeed very good things.

In a short time, the pill had already been auctioned for a price of 160,000.

Seeing that no one had bid for a long time, Chen Yingying began to make the final countdown.

"160,000, once. ”

"One hundred and sixty thousand, twice. ”

"One hundred and sixty thousandβ€”"

At the moment when the countdown was over, a shout came from the VIP box above.

"Two hundred thousand!"

Everyone's eyes looked upward.

It was none other than Uncle Jia who was holding the card.

Ye Ling frowned, and when he noticed that Uncle Jia was raising his card, he suddenly became smart, and his body seemed to be a little strange......
