Chapter 418: The End of the Auction
"Twenty-five thousand taels!" The woman's offer caused dissatisfaction with the opponent, and the opponent couldn't help but finally add five thousand taels, this move once again aroused everyone's voice, perhaps it was a long time since to see such a high offer, everyone was talking about who paid such a high price to auction, this situation must be inevitable.
"Thirty-five thousand taels!" Suddenly, the woman's next offer made everyone close their mouths, dumbfounded, and the mysterious woman added 10,000 taels when she made a move.
"That person is crazy!" Liu Fei couldn't sit still, he jumped up, and kept calculating, "This piece of Xuanshi needs to be processed and refined, and the materials and manpower used will consume at least 20,000 taels of gold, plus the cost of shipbuilding, even if the core is successfully refined in the end, such a huge ship will cost at least more than 100,000 taels of gold." β
"One hundred thousand taels!" Guo Yue was also shocked by Liufei's words, and she couldn't believe it, "It's too much." β
"But it's a lot!" Tianxuan Ji nodded, "One hundred thousand taels of gold can form a huge army, and using so much money just to build a warship is indeed too extravagant." β
"You don't understand. Xue Xiaotian laughed, he didn't seem to agree with their opinion, "The country you are in is the most of the land station, you won't know that such as our Northern Islands, the importance of the Flowing Spirit Ship, if there is a real war between the two countries, most of the decisive battles are in the Spirit Sea, and for ordinary people who can't enter the Spirit Sea alone, the Spirit Ship is the best weapon against the enemy." β
Xue Xiaotian's opinion made Liufei and the others not refute it, after all, Liufei himself also understands that although Tianxuan Kingdom has a Flowing Water Immortal Sect like the Flowing Water Immortal Sect, it is true that there is no real vigorous development of the Flowing Spirit Ship, so far the use of Liuyun Xuanshi as the core of the Flowing Spirit Ship is rare in the Tianxuan Kingdom, which shows that the Tianxuan Kingdom does not attach importance to the Flowing Spirit Ship, this is also because the empty islands owned by the Tianxuan Kingdom are very large places, even in a border area like Huai Island, all the land area is more than double that of the Snow City, and the development of the Flowing Spirit Ship is more than a real armyγ
"Thirty-five thousand taels, the third time!" As time passed, Elder Lu saw that no one dared to bid anymore, and he announced the final price of the auction: "Congratulations, the guests upstairs, for 35,000 taels of gold, you have auctioned this excellent quality Liuyun Xuanshi." β
"I really want to know who took this picture. Liufei thought to himself, and stuck his head out the window, wanting to see the appearance of the woman who had just made an offer in the next window.
"You pull it. Guo Yue pulled him back, "You are a man, you actually ran to peek at others, do you still have some face?"
"But, I'm really curious, aren't you curious?" Liufei laughed awkwardly, but didn't seem to regret it, and peeked next door from time to time.
"I advise you to give up. Xue Xiaotian looked at Liufei's appearance, and he was also amused, he said: "I heard that for the privacy of each customer service, the Liuyun Immortal Sect has done a lot of design in this attic, the sound insulation of each wall is excellent, and the windows have also been treated, you have to see the inside from the outside, unless that person takes the initiative to poke his head out, otherwise you have no chance." β
"Then I'll be at the door for a while, and I won't believe it. Liufei listened to Xue Xiaotian's words and was not convinced.
"I advise you to give up, here, leaving is not what you think. Xue Xiaotian was not in a hurry, and told Liufei: "The guests in each room are under the guidance of the people of the Liuyun Immortal Sect, and they leave the venue, and everyone will not meet each other, and it is impossible for you to be allowed to guard at the door of others." β
"It's really not easy to do!" Liufei also gave up his plan when he heard this, he was just angry, and he didn't really want to block other people's doors.
"It seems that it has just come out of the last dark stone. Ye Hua saw that Elder Lu seemed to be planning to leave the audience at this time, and he said to Xue Xiaotian. "It's a pity that I didn't see the Xuanshi that the city lord needed. β
"I'm not in a hurry what I need. Xue Xiaotian still looked optimistic, "Now that Snow City has been removed with the help of the Immortals, there is no need to build ships in a short period of time, this thing is Liuyun Xuanshi, just let the people below pay more attention later." β
It didn't take long for there to be a knock on the door outside the guest room, and it turned out to be a disciple of the Liuyun Immortal Sect. The man saluted Guo Yue, who opened the door, and then said to Xue Xiaotian: "Dare which one took the Liuyun Xuanshi just now." β
"It's me. Ye Hua also guessed the other party's intentions, and he replied.
"It turned out to be this Daoist!" The disciple of the Liuyun Sect saw Ye Hua, he could see that Ye Hua was a cultivator, but he couldn't see Ye Hua's ability, "Since this Daoist friend has already photographed the Liuyun Xuanshi, please ask, how are the 1,100 taels of gold going to be paid." β
"Why, this is starting to ask for money, and I haven't seen anything yet. Liufei was a little unhappy.
"Please don't misunderstand!" The disciple was not in a hurry, he was not angry because of Liufei's words, and he continued to explain: "It's just because most of the people in the auction of Liuyun Xuanshi are spending a lot of money, but not everyone will bring so much money on them, so I would like to ask Daoyou how he plans to pay, we can prepare, as for the Xuanshi, we will display it in the hall for one night after the auction, and then it will be personally delivered to the residence where the distinguished guest is." β
"This service is quite considerate!" Liu Fei laughed, he felt that this Liuyun Immortal Sect really didn't look like an Immortal Sect, but was closer to a merchant.
"That's fine. Ye Hua nodded, "I really don't have so much gold with me, but I have the golden ticket of Tianliyuan Tianhui Money Village here, but I don't know if you can accept it." β
After speaking, he took out the golden ticket in his arms and handed it to the other party, "Here are three golden tickets of five hundred taels, which can be exchanged for one thousand five hundred taels of gold in the bank." β
"Oh!" the disciple took the golden ticket, he looked at it for a while, his face turned pale, hesitated for a while, and then said, "Wait for me to ask, please wait." β
Not long after, the disciple returned to the room, and there was one more person behind him, this person was Elder Lu from the previous auction house, Elder Lu walked into the room with a smile, and when he saw Xue Xiaotian, he hurriedly saluted the other party, and kept greeting: "I didn't know that it was the city lord of the Snowy City who came in person, so that the sky and rivers and clouds were shining." β
"Fortunately, I just came out to have fun and come to see your stone king in this auction, which is really eye-opening. Facing Elder Lu, Xue Xiaotian was at ease, and he was chatting with the other party unhurriedly.
"May I ask these friends of the Snow City Lord?" Elder Lu asked again, "It was your friend who just asked about this bill?"
"That's right, it's this Ye Xianyou's. Xue Xiaotian pointed at Ye Hua.
"Sure enough!" Elder Lu also suddenly realized when he heard this, and hurriedly walked up to Ye Hua: "It seems that this is Ye Gongzi of the Ye family of Tianli Yuan?"
"Oh, you know me?" Ye Hua didn't expect the other party to know his identity, "How do you know that I am from the Ye family of Tianliyuan?"
"Hey!" Elder Lu saw that he had indeed seen the right thing, and he laughed: "Others don't know, but how can I not know, the chapter on Gongzi's bill is a unique family crest of the Tianliyuan Ye family, and the person who can have this bill can only be a member of the Tianliyuan Ye family, not to mention that since Ye Gongzi is also surnamed Ye, it is naturally related to the Ye family." β
"Haha. Ye Hua didn't expect that his golden ticket would reveal his identity, this was the golden ticket given to him by his mother before he left home, although as an immortal, it was difficult for him to have money, but since his mother loved him, Ye Hua also accepted it, since the other party had already said it, Ye Hua did not hide it, "That's right, I am indeed a member of the Ye family." β
"Dare to ask which son of the Ye family is Gongzi Ye?" Elder Lu asked again.
"The third in line, Ye Hua. β
"No wonder!" Elder Lu laughed in relief, "I've seen the other two sons, but the sons have never shown up. β
"Oh, I don't even know this, I didn't expect Ye Xianyou to be the son of the Ye family of Tianliyuan. Xue Xiaotian also came over.
"Now that you have entered the Immortal Gate, there is no need to mention the family, not to mention that the Ye family is nothing special. Ye Hua showed humility in this.
"Indeed, compared to your identity as a disciple of the inner sect of the Heavenly Star Sect, it is nothing. Xue Xiaotian said again.
"It turns out that Ye Gongzi is practicing in the Heavenly Star Gate, no wonder I have never seen it, I can't imagine that Ye Gongzi is still a senior disciple of the Heavenly Star Gate, and he is disrespectful!" Elder Lu praised again and again.
"Elder Lu, I hope this matter is not told to outsiders. Ye Hua didn't laugh, he said to Elder Lu solemnly.
Seeing Elder Lu's surprised expression, Guo Yue walked over: "My master doesn't want to attract attention, so please trouble Elder Lu." β
"Okay, good!" Elder Lu saw that Ye Hua still had apprentices, he guessed that Ye Hua must be a master of Tianxingmen, but unfortunately, although the Liuyun Immortal Sect was an immortal sect, he didn't have much contact with the Dao Immortal Sect of Tianxingmen, and he didn't know much about Ye, but based on the character of a businessman, as long as the other party did business with him, the rest of him Ye would hardly care.
"That's right, Ye Gongzi. Elder Lu took out the golden tickets and said, "I will first mention Gongzi to accept these golden tickets, and after the Liuyun Xuanshi is exhibited in the hall today, we will send the extra four hundred taels of gold to the residence together with the Xuanshi photographed by Ye Gongzi early tomorrow morning." β
"No problem. Ye Hua nodded slightly.
"Then I won't bother you, if there is nothing else, I will send a few people downstairs?" Elder Lu planned to personally send Ye Hua and the others off.
"Then, let's go, shall we?" Ye Hua stood up and asked Xue Xiaotian.
Then a few people left the room with Elder Lu, and under the leadership of the other party, they went down to the hall of Tianhe Yun. Ye Hua and the others were about to leave, but Ye Hua was stopped by Liufei.
"Ye Hua, are you interested in going up close and taking a look at that huge Flowing Cloud Stone?"
"It's not impossible, there's still a lot of time anyway. Ye Hua saw that Liu Fei was so interested, and he couldn't hit the other party, and at the same time, Guo Yue and Tianxuan Ji also heard Liu Fei's words, and they were also clamoring to see and see.
"Since a few people are so Yaxing, then Xue is here to say goodbye. Xue Xiaotian didn't seem interested.
"Oh, the main one of Syracuse is gone?" Ye Hua was a little surprised.
"Yes, that's right, Ye Gongzi. Xue Xiaotian pulled Ye Hua aside, glanced at Guo Yue not far away, and asked Ye Hua: "Ye Gongzi, your apprentice, looks very familiar, if I guess correctly, it is somewhat similar to the holy woman of Haoyue Town." β
"Snow City Lord has good eyesight!" Ye Hua was amazed in his heart after hearing this, but he was still unfazed on the surface, "How can the City Lord see it?"
"Although I am not familiar with the Holy Maiden of Haoyue Town, after all, they are all in the Northern Region, and the Holy Maiden has been to Snowy City as an envoy back then, but because of the long time, I haven't looked at it carefully. β
