Chapter 570: Wealthy
The sound was like a boulder thrown into the water, and it suddenly stirred up a thousand waves.
Everyone almost subconsciously looked up at the three-story small attic, and it could be seen that those Yuan Infant monks showed surprised faces one by one, including Wang An and the bearded man, obviously the voice was not from them.
Looking at the small attic on the second floor, the expressions of the third prince, Xia Yi, Bai Haoran and others were also very surprised.
As for the sixteenth prince, his brows were furrowed, and his face was quite ugly, he really didn't expect that he would raise the bid to 150,000 high-grade spirit stones in one go, and there were still people who grabbed it from him.
Hong Ying was stunned on the spot, and the words stuck in her throat finally swallowed back, and after a while, she showed a hint of embarrassment on her face, glanced around, and said loudly.
"I don't know which Taoist friend made the bid just now?"
This matter is also ridiculous, as an auctioneer, Hong Ying didn't know who the person who had just bid was.
Of course, this was not because the bidder deliberately concealed the source of the sound, but because she thought the auction was over, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
Similarly, not only did Hongying not know who was bidding, but at this moment, most of the monks in the hall were looking around, secretly saying which boy couldn't hold it back, and finally made a move.
And just when the focus of everyone's attention was on the mysterious son, no one noticed that Qinglian, who had always been motionless, trembled slightly after hearing the voice.
Her unfocused eyes regained a little regain a hint of brilliance, and following the source of the voice, her gaze fell to the area to the left of the gate, and among the many monks, she found a handsome young man dressed in white.
The young man's sword eyebrows and starry eyes, his face was like a crown of jade, and he obviously looked extremely unfamiliar, but Qinglian had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
The young man was naturally Qiao Yuan, who had changed his appearance, and at this moment he and Qinglian met their eyes, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously revealed a reassuring smile.
"Senior, you...... You...... How do you ......?"
Others didn't know who spoke just now, but Lan Yan was extremely clear, and the loud voice was from the young man beside him.
But because of the distance, the shock in Lan Yan's heart was stronger than anyone at the scene.
She stared blankly at the handsome side face, her heart pounding and racing, and her towering breasts continued to rise and fall with her heartbeat, which was extremely eye-catching.
But Qiao Yuan didn't even look at her, and he didn't pay attention to it, just looked at Qinglian for a moment, then looked at Hongying on the side, and once again resounded loudly.
"It's a bid of 160,000 high-grade spirit stones. ”
This time, everyone was almost conditionally launched, and their eyes fell on Qiao Yuan one after another.
But he did not have the slightest discoloration because of these gazes, his expression was calm and waveless, his back was as straight as a pine, and his gaze always fell on the round platform.
"Qiao Yuan?"
When no one was paying attention, Qinglian trembled her lips and spit out two words in an inaudible voice.
Just like Qiao Yuan saw her before, although she didn't see her true face, she was eighty percent confident that she was Qinglian by looking at her shape.
And now, although Qinglian doesn't see his true face, she is also eighty percent confident that he is Qiao Yuan when she hears his voice.
For a moment, there was a moment of silence in the room, and then a shocking discussion erupted.
"Who is he? How come I have never seen this man, and I have never heard of him?"
"Sitting in the ordinary seat, I think he shouldn't be a child of a big family. ”
"That's not necessarily, maybe people keep a low profile and like to hide in the crowd. ”
......
Most of those discussions are about Qiao Yuan's origin, not to mention that he has changed his appearance, even if he hasn't changed, in this Kyoto City, except for Qinglian, there is no one he knows.
Therefore, most of those discussions were fruitless, and some people can be sure that Qiao Yuan was not a monk from Kyoto City.
"I don't know what to call you?"
Hongyingmei's eyes rolled, and she carefully looked at Qiao Yuan several times, and saw that although he was handsome, his cultivation was average, and he didn't look anything unusual.
The most important thing is that she is a courtesan in this Kyoto city, and no princes and nobles have ever dealt with her.
It can be said that among the tens of thousands of people present, except for a few foreign monks who have just come to Kyoto City, Hongying can almost report their names one by one.
But Qiao Yuan's face, Hongying felt extremely unfamiliar, and in just a moment, she was already sure that this person was definitely not a Kyoto City monk, and it might not even be a Jingguo monk.
"What's the matter? I still need to be named in the auction to participate in the auction?"
Qiao Yuan raised his eyebrows and said lightly.
The corners of Hongying's mouth slightly hooked a trace of arc, the silky peach blossom pupils revealed a thousand styles, and there was a hint of coquettish tone between the words, which was enough to make any man want to stop.
"Naturally not, it's just that it's clumsy, and I don't know the identity of Taoist friends, so it's not easy to call Taoist friends. ”
Qiao Yuan was indifferent to her flattery, and he didn't care about her words, and sat there quietly, smiling without saying a word.
"Interesting, interesting. ”
Bai Haoran pulled out a folding fan out of nowhere, and muttered in a low voice while clapping his palms.
Xia Yi, the third prince and the others looked at Qiao Yuan with interest, not knowing what to think in their hearts.
As for the sixteenth prince, he looked at Qiao Yuan angrily, and his right hand clasped on the windowsill had already pinched out five sunken fingerprints.
Hongying's face showed a hint of interest, staring at Qiao Yuan without hiding the brilliance in her eyes.
Dozens of breaths have passed like this, and everyone is still happily discussing and speculating, but Hongying has to follow the rules, looks at the windowsill of the sixteenth prince, and said loudly.
"160,000 high-grade spirit stones for the first time. ”
These words instantly extinguished everyone's discussions, making them all move their eyes to the Sixteen Princes.
"165,000 high-grade spirit stones. ”
The sixteenth prince gritted his teeth, and a trace of flesh pain flashed in his eyes, but at this moment, there was no reason to quit, even if he broke his teeth, he had to swallow it in his stomach.
Who knew that as soon as the sixteenth prince's voice fell, Qiao Yuan spoke immediately, not giving everyone half time to react.
"180,000 high-grade spirit stones. ”
Just now, he saw that the sixteenth prince asked the third prince to borrow the spirit stone, and the sixteenth prince raised the price by 30,000 yuan in one go, forcing Wang An and the bearded man back, obviously his determination to win was very firm.
If Qiao Yuan and him grind and chirp the price increase, I am afraid that the price will be very high, even so, if it is broken, it will directly collapse the determination of the sixteen princes.
The sound of inhalation sounded again, and everyone thought that the sixteenth prince was a madman who didn't want money for the sake of beauty, but it was only when Qiao Yuan knew what madness was.
The sixteenth prince only felt a click in his heart, and vaguely saw the peerless beauty on the round platform, getting farther and farther away from him.
The unwillingness in his eyes had turned into a crimson color, and most of the reason of the sixteen princes was instantly washed away.
When he heard Hong Ying say the first time that 180,000 high-grade spirit stones were spoken, there was a click, and the nanmu on the windowsill was crushed by him.
You must know that the total net worth of the sixteen princes is only 100,000 high-grade spirit stones, and then counting the 90,000 high-grade spirit stones borrowed by the three princes, a total of 190,000 high-grade spirit stones.
If he fights everything he has and takes pictures of Qinglian, then he will really be poor and white, and become the poorest prince in Kyoto City, is it worth it?
While she was struggling and hesitating, Hongying's words sounded again.
"180,000 high-grade spirit stones for the second time. ”
Everyone's eyes always fell on the sixteenth prince, and when they saw him sweating profusely and struggling on his face, they knew that he had reached his limit.
Some of the monks' faces couldn't help but show disappointment, shook their heads and sighed, and then fell on Qiao Yuan.
Qinglian's gaze was focused on Qiao Yuan's face from beginning to end, and seeing that she seemed to be about to make a final decision at this moment, the corners of her lips turned up a trace of arc for the first time, and the smile she showed was enough to make a hundred flowers lose color.
She ...... She smiled...... She smiled......"
When some monks saw Qinglian's smile, their faces immediately showed obsession, and they pointed at her and shouted excitedly.
Everyone turned their heads to look, but saw that the smile only bloomed for Qiao Yuan, although they were a little disappointed, they couldn't help but admire, and the beauty smiled, amazed.
When the sixteenth prince saw that smile, although he felt extremely beautiful, it was very dazzling, and his heart was unwilling to be emotional, and secretly said that the smile should only bloom for this prince.
In this way, the struggle in his heart immediately dissipated, turned into a firmness, looked at Hongying and shouted loudly.
"This prince bids 190,000 high-grade spirit stones!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was a little overwhelmed, and even the third prince frowned, turned his head to look at the sixteenth prince, and shouted in a deep voice.
"Sixteenth brother, you are crazy!"
Yes, he is indeed crazy, crazy enough to gamble his entire net worth for the sake of a smile for the beauty.
It's a pity that Qiao Yuan won't let him get his wish, just when the words of the third prince were settled, before everyone's eyes moved to Qiao Yuan's face, he said lightly without hesitation.
"Two hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones. ”
Qiao Yuan's expression was unusually calm from beginning to end, and the tone of his speech was even more indifferent, as if the spirit stones reported from his mouth were all empty words, and he didn't have to worry about whether he could pay it off.
Because of this, many monks began to wonder if he was deliberately trying to make trouble, and whether he could take out so many spirit stones after the auction was over?
After all, all the combined property of the two princes was only 190,000 high-grade spirit stones, and the Yuan Infant Monk would bid 110,000 high-grade spirit stones at most.
These 200,000 high-grade spirit stones are really a bit too much, and the one who quoted this price is still a foreign Jindan late-stage monk.
You must know that in general, the wealthier immortal cultivation families, the late Jindan monks have 10,000 high-grade spirit stones, even if they are wealthy.
And now, Qiao Yuan's face is not red, and his heart is not beating to report 200,000 high-grade spirit stones, which is really suspicious.
But even if there is any suspicion, this is also a matter for Shengyuan Auction House.
False bidding, deliberately inflating prices, this kind of thing has not happened before, and once this matter is exposed, it will not only cause an unpredictable loss of credibility to the auction house, but also the monk who falsely bids will also be punished very severely.
For a while, everyone's expressions were different, but no one spoke out to hold them accountable.
There were only sixteen princes, and their feminine and handsome faces were faintly distorted, and they jumped out of the attic directly, landed on the round platform, and pointed at Qiao Yuan and asked sharply.
"Hmph, this prince doesn't believe that you can take out 200,000 high-grade spirit stones. ”
