Chapter 58: Prices go all the way up
Shen Lingxi, who was sitting in the back hall of the auction hall waiting, was already very relaxed when he heard that someone had already bid 180,000 taels.
In Shen Lingxi's imagination, this ice dagger was actually more than 150,000 taels that were already acceptable, after all, it was only a ninth-rank magic weapon, and although it was an attack magic weapon, the sixth-rank alchemy furnace was only 120,000 taels.
However, Shen Lingxi still has a back-up move that is useless, so when he heard that the price had rushed to 180,000 taels, he thought that today's transaction price would definitely be very satisfactory.
Liu Qingqing on the auction table saw that the customer at No. 230 had already bid 180,000 taels, which was a little short of the 200,000 taels he had promised to Young Master Lingxi, and the excitement in his heart was also ignited, so he continued to incite the people below.
"This customer of No. 230 bid 180,000 taels, it seems that he is determined to get this ice dagger, and the treasure with a thousand years of ice qi is really very precious, it seems that this customer is very discerning. It's only 180,000, is there anything higher, just 180,000 can get this ice dagger, it's really a little envious! 180,000 taels ...... for the first time."
Liu Qingqing did not shout "180,000 taels for the first time" in a hurry, but once again praised the ice dagger, and also hinted in the language that the price of 180,000 taels was really worth the price.
Sure enough, the people in the audience who were stirred up in the atmosphere continued to raise prices again calmly.
"Then I'll give you 200,000 taels of silver to make up a whole number. If there is anything else to fight with me, I don't believe it!"
This time, the one who stood up to bid was a middle-aged man holding a No. 80 plate and dressed by a wealthy steward.
Some people who knew him discussed it below: "Isn't this the head of the Li family, Mr. Cui!" It seems that the Li family is also very interested in this ice dagger, but the bid has already reached 200,000 taels, and the price is a bit high, so why don't we follow?"
"Don't follow, the strength of the Li family is there, we can't compete. ”
Many people in the audience heard the identity of the No. 80 bidder, and they retreated, after all, they didn't want to offend the Li family because of this ice dagger, and in terms of financial strength, few people present could compare.
Liu Qingqing, who was on the auction table, heard that someone had bid 200,000 taels, and his mood relaxed suddenly, and he let out a long sigh, the task was completed.
However, because of the change in mentality, Liu Qingqing now feels more open, after all, she wants to continue to challenge a higher price, if the ice dagger has just been sold at 200,000 taels, this also seems that she is not working hard enough.
Thinking of this, Liu Qingqing was a little anxious about the reaction of the people below, it seems that as soon as the Li family's steward came out to make an offer, the others did not dare to come out and continue to fight with the Li family.
"200,000 taels, this No. 80 customer bid......s 200,000 taels!
Liu Qingqing tested the language while observing the reactions of everyone in the audience.
Sure enough, she found that some people's expressions were still a little unwilling, but they didn't dare to be the first to jump out and compete with the Li family's steward.
Seeing this situation, Liu Qingqing knew that as long as there was one person who was willing to be the first to bid with the Li family steward, this shouting could continue.
"Looks like we're going to have to use some means!"
Liu Qingqing thought so in her heart, so she said: "I believe that 200,000 yuan is still very cost-effective to buy this rare ice dagger, this No. 80 customer's vision is really admirable, then 200,000 taels is the first time, and there is no one to bid, the 200,000 taels for the second time, well, it seems that this ice dagger really belongs to this No. 80 customer, so 200,000 taels ......"
"Two hundred and twenty thousand taels, I will give two hundred and ten thousand taels!"
Just when everyone thought that this ice dagger was going to be sold for 200,000 taels, an abrupt voice came from the back row.
A rich boy dressed as a young man, holding the number plate of No. 290, stood up and arched his hand to the Li family steward of No. 80 and said: "This steward of the Li family, although I also respect you, but this is in the auction house, we all rely on the price to speak, everyone wants good things, you can't say that you are from the Li family, he is from the Zhang family, so you will not let you bid, right?" It's an auction, and there's nothing to offend about, I just want that ice dagger, and I can afford it. That's why I want the Li family's steward to bear with me!"
This rich boy with No. 290 not only stood up and offered a price of 210,000, but also said the voices of everyone present, and there was a burst of support immediately.
"That's right, this son said it well, everyone is here to talk about the price, and there is nothing to offend. There is only one ice dagger, and whoever can afford the price will belong to whomever it is, and everyone says it's ......"
As the rich boy and some deliberately heckling people said this, the originally quiet and depressing atmosphere in the auction hall suddenly became warm again.
Everyone had already seen that someone had taken the lead in surpassing the 200,000 taels of the Li family's steward's offer, so they continued to boldly shout upwards.
Before Liu Qingqing could shout a price for the rich boy of 210,000 taels, the new quotation began to sound again.
"I'll give 230,000 taels!"
"Two hundred and fifty thousand taels!"
"Two hundred fifty-eight thousand taels"
As if he deliberately wanted to slap the Li family's steward in the face, some wealthy businessmen with average status but rich began to bid each other, this time the bidding was not only to buy the cold ice dagger, but also a kind of pleasure of slapping the Li family's steward in the face, so the bidding sound was more than 200,000 taels and suddenly became enthusiastic.
Of course, this effect was arranged by Liu Qingqing and Shen Lingxi, and the rich son of No. 290 was the dark village arranged by Shen Lingxi at the auction site, the purpose was to come out to break the deadlock at such a critical moment and let the price fully rise.
And in Liu Qingqing's hint just now, a signal was sent that the deadlock must be broken, so this No. 290 immediately jumped out bravely and slapped the Li family steward in the face.
After all, Shen Lingxi is the young master of the second room of the Shen family, of course, he didn't take a steward of the Li family in his eyes, so he had this person dressed as a rich son of No. 290 who came out to slap the steward of the Li family in the face.
Everyone felt that since someone had already come forward to offend the steward of the Li family, and they also made it very clear that the auction house spoke by price, so everyone had no worries, and the rich businessman who wanted the ice dagger continued to increase the price.
The steward of the Li family, who bid 200,000 yuan, saw that 200,000 yuan could get the ice dagger in his pocket, but he didn't expect to be ruined by this stinky boy who was killed halfway, so he angrily looked at the rich boy at No. 290 several times.
However, the son of No. 290 is not afraid of such a manager, everyone is their own master, and the Shen family has no reason to be afraid of the Li family.
