Chapter 292: The Stingy Master
Chapter 292: The Stingy Master
If you have items to auction, you can also enter the venue. The auction is very quiet at this time. Everyone is very polite. They don\'t make loud noises when they come in and sit quietly in their seats.
There are also some private rooms here, which are only open to the most prestigious people in Chenwu Continent. Therefore, the entire auction venue is shrouded in a very serious atmosphere. Even if the masters try to restrain their aura, they will still release some mental pressure from time to time, making some people with less strength feel very uncomfortable.
Shen Xiang, Liu Meng\'er and Hua Xiangyue were in a private room. Shen Xiang had his face covered and was holding his breath. His spiritual sense would sweep over from time to time, which made Liu Meng\'er and Hua Xiangyue a little unhappy.
"Sister Hua, have my headmaster and the others arrived?" Shen Xiang asked.
"Except for the head of the Beast Martial Sect, all the giants from the eight major sects are here, as are the patriarchs of many famous families." Hua Xiangyue said. She was in charge of this place, so of course she knew it very well.
Shen Xiang looked at the group of people sitting in the auction venue, and actually found Yun Xiaodao, Zhu Rong and Xu Weilong. They all came with their clan leader.
"You little rascal, don\'t use your voice and reveal your identity! Those guys know that Xiangyue and I are together. If they find out that you are with us, they will become suspicious." Liu Meng\'er said.
Of course Shen Xiang understood. After he and Su Meiyao reflected on it, he made further improvements in restraining his aura. This was mainly due to Long Xueyi. At this time, Shen Xiang\'s ability to hide surprised Liu Meng\'er and Hua Xiangyue. They could not vaguely sense the situation inside Shen Xiang\'s body like before.
The auction began. It was hosted by Madam Li. She exchanged some pleasantries before promoting the first item for auction. It turned out to be Shen Xiang\'s Foundation Establishment Pill.
"Ten Foundation Building Pills. This many appearing at one time is something that has never happened before in an auction. You all know about Foundation Building Pills, so I won\'t say more. The reserve price is two million crystals. Bidding begins now." Mrs. Li said.
Two million crystal stones seemed like a small sum in Shen Xiang\'s eyes, but this was just the base price, which would be increased slowly. Moreover, there were not many Foundation Establishment Pills on the Chenwu Continent, and things were precious because they were rare. If someone really needed it, a lower-grade Xuan-level Pill could also be auctioned for a very high price.
Crystals are usually used for bidding during auctions, and you can choose to use crystals and Zhenyuan Pills during delivery. Generally, Zhenyuan Pills are used most of the time.
"Two million and two hundred thousand crystal stones!" A voice familiar to Shen Xiang shouted. This was from Gu Dongchen. Shen Xiang did not expect that this great nephew was so short of Foundation Establishment Pills. He was secretly happy in his heart. After he went back, he could ripen many Qingxuan Fruits. By then, Foundation Establishment Pills would surely come in large quantities. He was not afraid of killing this stingy great nephew.
"This guy only adds 200,000 crystals each time. He\'s so stingy. Last time he asked me to refine a flying disc, he bargained with me for most of the day." Liu Meng\'er\'s voice was full of contempt.
"That\'s right. When you came to Danxiang Taoyuan to buy elixirs, you actually argued with me until you were red in the face. Humph." Hua Xiangyue also despised Gu Dongchen.
Shen Xiang secretly laughed. He didn\'t expect that his nephew was such a stingy guy.
The Foundation Establishment Pill was not only being scrambled for by the major sects, but also by the families. The price soon soared to seven million crystals, equivalent to seven hundred thousand crystals per pill. Shen Xiang did not expect it to reach this price.
And now the price is still rising.
"Seven thousand six hundred thousand crystal stones." Gu Dongchen\'s heavy voice came, which made Shen Xiang even happier.
The whole audience fell silent; this was almost the upper limit price.
"Seven thousand seven hundred thousand crystal stones." This is the patriarch of a family. If he can buy these ten foundation-building pills, he can produce at least three or two True Martial Realm cultivators. This is quite worthwhile.
"Eight million." Gu Dongchen shouted again.
Shen Xiang gritted his teeth secretly. He had sold 500,000 crystal stones to Gu Dongchen before, and he regretted it very much now.
"Eight million and two hundred thousand."
"Eight million three hundred thousand."
"..."
After the silence just now, there was another round of fierce competition. With the Foundation Establishment Pill, some talented disciples could enter the Zhenwu Realm more quickly. Not to mention in those families, even in the big sects, there were not many people in the Zhenwu Realm.
"Fifteen million!" Gu Dongchen\'s voice came. Along the way, many people had competed with him, but they were defeated in the end. It can be seen that Gu Dongchen cares about this foundation-building pill very much.
After a moment of silence, Mrs. Li shouted, "Fifteen million for the first time..."
Seeing this, Chen Xiang hurriedly shouted: "Sister Meng\'er, add it. It doesn\'t matter if you buy it in the end. I will just return the crystal to you anyway."
"Kid, that guy is your master." Hua Xiangyue was surprised, but she fully supported Shen Xiang\'s approach.
"Hehe, of course I know!" Shen Xiang laughed.
"Fifteen million for the second time!" Mrs. Li had just finished shouting when Liu Meng\'er whispered, "Sixteen million!"
Gu Dongchen gritted his teeth secretly. He could tell that it was Liu Meng\'er\'s voice, and he was considering whether to add it in.
"One hundred and sixteen million. Two hundred thousand!" Gu Dongchen and Wu Kaiming discussed it and decided to continue fighting.
The crystal stone would return to her anyway, so Liu Meng\'er made the bid casually, not to mention that she was competing with the stingy Master Gu.
"Eighteen million!" Liu Meng\'er\'s light and pleasant voice made Gu Dongchen want to vomit blood. If he knew now that it was Shen Xiang who deliberately let Liu Meng\'er and him raise the price, he would definitely vomit immediately.
This was considered a violation of the rules, but Hua Xiangyue just turned a blind eye, because the people Shen Xiang had schemed against were also her own people. However, she did not expect that Shen Xiang was so bold that he could be so cruel to his own master.
Liu Meng\'er looked at Chen Xiang\'s gestures and continued adding...
"Eighteen and a half million!"
"Nineteen million nine hundred thousand!"
"Twenty million!" Gu Dongchen\'s voice was extremely heavy and filled with anger.
Liu Meng\'er rolled her eyes at Shen Xiang. She had always raised the price according to Shen Xiang\'s wishes.
Chen Xiang nodded, and said with a smile: "It\'s almost done. After he buys it, I will tell him that it was auctioned by me. Haha... It will definitely be very exciting then!"
Hua Xiangyue and Liu Meng\'er both admired Shen Xiang\'s methods. When they thought of Gu Dongchen\'s reaction at that time, they couldn\'t help but giggle.
Liu Meng\'er didn\'t raise the price again, and in the end Gu Dongchen won it.
Hua Xiangyue snorted, "Gu Dongchen is really something. He got angry just because there were five million extra crystals."
