Chapter 41: The starting price is a spirit stone
It's the dumb person who eats Coptis chinensis, and he can't say the bitterness.
And Jiang Menglan's few words also mobilized the atmosphere of the audience again.
The forces that originally felt pity because Ling Xue Sword Sect auctioned the pill at a high price also returned to their state of gearing up again.
Some forces even took advantage of this time to quickly mobilize funds from the sect, ready to fight again.
In order to quickly carry out the auction of the pill again, several magic weapons and exercise cheats were auctioned in the middle of the auction, and they were sold at a much higher price than usual.
Jiang Menglan's business methods are indeed clever.
The auction had only been going on for a quarter of an hour, and it had already created benefits that the Chamber of Commerce would normally have achieved in years.
When the second group of pills was brought to the stage together, the audience cheered again.
But Jiang Menglan made a guilty look at this time, and her tone was touching and humane:
"Before the pill, everyone felt that the starting price was too high. ”
"It's true that our Jubao Chamber of Commerce is not doing well enough, and people have also done reflection. ”
"Therefore, this group of perfect grade Tongmai Pills and Kailing Pills, we will conduct a bundle auction. ”
"And the starting price is...... A spirit stone!"
"The starting price is ...... A spirit stone!"
Jiang Menglan's words made the entire noisy venue instantly quiet.
Three seconds later, all the monks seemed to explode the pot, shouting out the price they could quote.
10,000 spirit stones, 30,000 spirit stones, 50,000 spirit stones......
Jiang Menglan looked at these crazy monks, still with a shallow smile on her face.
Dignified and charismatic.
But she never spoke, and let the monks offer.
Jiang Menglan knew that the offer of a spirit stone was just a psychological compensation for which small forces.
In this way, even if these small forces did not photograph the pill, they would not hold a grudge against the Treasure Chamber of Commerce.
On the contrary, it will be blamed on those big forces who rely on financial resources to bully people.
In the end, the Jubao Chamber of Commerce made money, retained its reputation, and would not lose small customers.
It's a triple win.
Suddenly, an old voice sounded.
"One hundred thousand spirit stones!"
The sound came from the VIP room of the auction house.
The private room has an isolation formation, and if the person making the offer does not report his home, no one knows the identity of the person in the private room.
And as soon as this old voice spoke, it instantly quieted the originally noisy venue again.
One hundred thousand spirit stones, this is already more than too many people's budget.
Even Jiang Menglan was a little surprised that this second group of pills could still be auctioned at this price.
After all, in her intelligence, except for the three major sword sects, she needed to prepare for the sword trial conference in half a year.
It seems that there is no need for the rest of the forces to quickly increase their strength.
In her plan, the pills from the second and third groups should be auctioned by the three major sword sects respectively, and the highest price should be around eighty thousand.
However, Jiang Menglan is a smart businessman, her purpose is money, and it doesn't matter whose money it is.
After confirming it three times, the final word is reached.
Taking advantage of the fact that the atmosphere of the auction had not yet fallen, Jiang Menglan hurriedly put on a group of pills.
"Hehe, I didn't expect this round of auction to be a bit unexpected. ”
"But don't worry, let's have the third round of the pill auction. ”
"The starting price is still a spirit stone!"
Jiang Menglan grabbed the attention of the audience again in a few words.
The pace of the auction was accelerated, and everyone didn't have time to think about who the mysterious person who quoted the price of 100,000 yuan was, and they put their energy into the auction of the pill.
Sure enough, it was just as Jiang Menglan expected.
The biggest competition is still the three major sword sects.
However, Ling Xue Sword Sect had already spent a lot of money to buy a set of pills, and there was no interest in the future.
Only the Huanhua Sword Washing Sect and the Sword Casting Villa are left to fight for blood.
In the end, it was auctioned by the Huanhua Sword Washing Sect at a price of 85,000 spirit stones.
The Ling Xue Sword Sect, who had suffered a loss, watched the Huanhua Washing Sword Sect auction this group of pills at a price of 40,000 less than his own.
Ling Xue Sword Sect was so angry in his heart!
After all, the Jubao Chamber of Commerce only released a perfect grade elixir, but it didn't say how many.
This led them to have a preconceived idea that there was only one set of pills, and in the end they paid such a big price.
In this way, it seems that although the Ling Xue Sword Sect has spent a lot of money, it has also gained the image of being wronged.
The more the people of the Ling Xue Sword Sect thought about it, the more angry they became, and finally they focused on the Sword Casting Villa.
"Humph!"
"I'm not happy, don't think about it!"
"The Huanhua Sword Washing Sect also took a group of photos, if there is still an elixir, then there will only be Sword Casting Villa. ”
The people of the Ling Xue Sword Sect thought so, and Jiang Menglan also brought another set of pills on the stage.
Everyone didn't know how many pills there were in the Treasure Chamber of Commerce, but they didn't know if this group of pills was the last group.
Every auction is full of suspense.
However, Jiang Menglan's subsequent words solved their doubts.
"Next, it's our last set of pills to be auctioned. ”
"Perfect-grade elixir, within the nine continents of the Immortal Yuan Continent, it is almost a legendary existence, how precious it is, I don't need to introduce it. ”
"The five groups of pills have already been obtained by our Treasure Chamber of Commerce after exhausting countless resources. ”
"So I hope that the last group of auctions, friends who have not made a move before and are still waiting and watching will seize the opportunity. ”
"Don't miss the opportunity, don't miss it again, the next auction of the perfect grade elixir, but I don't know when!"
Jiang Menglan's words made a sigh of regret in the auction hall.
It also makes countless people enter a tense state.
Originally, many people were going to observe it, and when the most competitive people started, they would pick up the leaks themselves.
But Jiang Menglan's few words made the situation white-hot.
Su Zangfeng also frowned.
Now, two of the three major sword sects have already taken the pill.
If you don't compete anymore, you will completely lose the competitiveness of the sword trial competition.
So when Jiang Menglan finished speaking, Su Zangfeng called without any hesitation:
"Sword Casting Villa, 80,000 spirit stones!"
Sure enough, after Su Zangfeng made this offer, the people who originally wanted to compete for it all hesitated.
Eighty thousand spirit stones, which is beyond the budget of ordinary people, but can alleviate the current crisis of Sword Casting Villa.
This is a price that only Sword Forge is willing to pay.
Jiang Menglan also smiled and nodded.
After all, this price is also within my own expectations.
But just as Jiang Menglan was about to confirm, a provocative voice sounded from Ling Xue Sword Sect's side.
"Hehe, is the first sword sect in Lingzhou so bold?"
"My Ling Xue Sword Sect has eighty-five thousand spirit stones!"
Ling Xue Sword Sect had already bought a set of pills, so naturally he would not invest such a large amount of money to grab the second group.
Their purpose is just to bleed the Sword Forge Villa.
After all, this is the last group of pills to be auctioned, and it cannot be given up for the Sword Casting Villa, which has the pressure of the Sword Trial Conference.
Then the Ling Xue Sword Sect could use this to raise the price at will and make the Sword Forging Villa pay more price.
And the truth is exactly what they expected.
Hearing Ling Xue Sword Sect's price increase, Su Zangfeng could only hold back the fire and said:
"Ninety thousand spirit stones from the Sword Casting Villa!"
Seeing this, Ling Xue Sword Sect said lightly:
"Ling Xue Sword Sect has produced 100,000 spirit stones!"
"Oh, the First Sword Sect of Lingzhou, it seems that it's just that. ”
Su Zangfeng's forehead was bruised, but he still held back his anger and said:
"Sword Forging Villa, 105,000 spirit stones!"
Ling Xue Sword Sect immediately said:
"120,000! 120,000!"
Raising the price to this point, the Ling Xue Sword Sect was actually ready to stop.
After all, letting Sword Forge Villa suffer a big loss like himself can also alleviate the resentment in their hearts.
However, at this time, Su Zangfeng couldn't help the anger in his heart, and immediately said angrily:
"Gan!"
"I don't want it!"
At this moment, the people of the Ling Xue Sword Sect were completely stunned......
"I don't want it!"
In a word, the audience exclaimed.
This person in Sword Forging Villa is still really temperamental!
In fact, everyone could feel that the Ling Xue Sword Sect was maliciously raising the price.
Now that the Sword Casting Villa doesn't want this elixir, the Ling Xue Sword Sect is just lifting a stone and shooting itself in the foot.
Two hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones, and forty pills were bought.
On average, an elixir costs more than 6,000 spirit stones.
This is really being slaughtered as a fat pig!
After today, this matter will definitely become a happy conversation for everyone in Lingzhou.
And the people of the Ling Xue Sword Sect who were sitting in the private room turned red at this moment, and they were almost so angry that they spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Why don't the people of this Sword Casting Villa play their cards according to the routine?
Two hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones, they can't take them out now!
Although he was one of the three major sword sects in Lingzhou, the strength of the Ling Xue Sword Sect was definitely a first-class existence.
But as a Sword Sect, their main business is not to make money!
The operation of the sect, the cultivation of disciples, the worship of guest qing, etc., are all not small expenses.
If more than 200,000 yuan are forcibly drawn out from the sect, it is estimated that the sect will have to be vegetarian for half a year, and the disciples will not be able to keep up with their cultivation!
The people of the Ling Xue Sword Sect sat in the private room, and couldn't help but regret muttering to themselves:
"I'm so stupid...... Really ......"
On the other hand, the Treasure Chamber of Commerce gladly accepted Ling Xue Sword Sect's bid, and finally recorded this group of pills in the name of Ling Xue Sword Sect.
In this way, the auction ended without a hitch.
The major forces also came to join in the fun, and in the end, it became a competition between the three major sword sects of Lingzhou.
And after Su Zangfeng calmed down, he was also very calm in his heart, without a trace of regret.
After all, the sword test conference will definitely be led by his son Su Zixuan.
It just so happens that his son Su Zixuan is a 'waste' who doesn't know how to cultivate, only knows how to practice swords.
Even if he bought the pill, there was a high probability that he would not be able to keep the name of the No. 1 Sword Sect in Lingzhou.
In this way, it is equivalent to saving a lot of money for Sword Casting Villa.
Su Zangfeng secretly rejoiced in his decisiveness in his decision.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to 'congratulate' Ling Xue Sword Sect.
So angry that the people of the Ling Xue Sword Sect almost went crazy on the spot.
Subsequently, the major forces also dispersed separately, and there was no incident.
The officials of the Qianyuan Dynasty were also able to breathe a sigh of relief.
And the Jubao Chamber of Commerce also took advantage of this auction to become the only chamber of commerce in the Xianyuan Continent that auctioned the perfect grade for thousands of years.
made a name for himself, proved his strength, and stepped on the other three major chambers of commerce.
Before the major forces took them away, they all gave a polite greeting to the charming Jiang Menglan.
When the people of the three major chambers of commerce saw this scene, they were also angry.
By the time everything was taken care of, it was already dusk.
Jiang Menglan personally walked to the private room of the Ling Xue Sword Sect with two sets of pills.
"Congratulations to the seniors of the Ling Xue Sword Sect for showing their strength in this auction and suppressing their wealth in all directions. ”
"This is the pill taken by the seniors, they are twenty Tongmai pills and twenty Kailing pills, you can count them. ”
"The seniors bid a total of 248,000 spirit stones in this auction. ”
"How did the seniors settle the settlement?"
Facing Jiang Menglan, who was smiling, the people of the Ling Xue Sword Sect wiped the sweat from their foreheads and said cheekily:
"That...... President Kang. ”
"These twenty-four thousand spirit stones...... Our Spirit Stones...... Forehead ......"
Looking at the scattered appearance of the people of the Ling Xue Sword Sect, Jiang Menglan not only did not turn her face, but said very intimately:
"Senpai, I know your difficulties. ”
"However, this elixir was sent by someone else to our Chamber of Commerce, and we still need to settle it for him. ”
"If the seniors have difficulties, we can provide loan services. ”
Jiang Menglan said, a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes again.
In desperation, the people of the Ling Xue Sword Sect had no choice but to sign a loan agreement with the Treasure Chamber of Commerce.
120,000 spirit stones, three-year term, 20% interest.
In other words, the operation of the Sword Casting Villa caused the Ling Xue Sword Sect to lose 144,000 spirit stones!
And Ling Xue Sword Sect is a cheap, pretending to be a wave of force, and he has to pay such a big price.
The final winner is undoubtedly the Treasure Chamber of Commerce.
An auction directly makes the Jubao Chamber of Commerce not lose to any of the three major chambers of commerce!
After the liquidation, Jiang Menglan sat on the seat of the Chamber of Commerce and stretched Miaoman's body.
Several senior stewards of the Chamber of Commerce also sat together and reported on the overall situation of the auction.
After the meeting ended, Liu Lao found Jiang Menglan.
Liu Lao naturally knew the whole process of the auction, and he also admired Jiang Menglan's methods very much.
But he was puzzled and asked:
"President, why don't you take this opportunity to sell the remaining five groups of pills?"
