Evil Emperor's Wild Consort - chapter-553
“Let the bidding begin.”
The auctioneer smiled confidently and spoke in a straightforward manner.
“This time, we will not begin the auction at a starting price. You can
bid as you please and there are no limits!”
Wow!
After the auctioneer spoke, the crowd erupted into a sensation. An
excited voice suddenly sounded from one of the boxes.
“I bid one hundred million gold pieces!”
One hundred million gold pieces to a medium-sized organization was a
pretty hefty sum!
Yet now, the initial bidding price for this spiritual weapon had actually
reached that price.
After all, a pill was just as valuable as a spiritual weapon. However,
the problem was, even if one had managed to get the pill formula, one
might not be able to successfully refine the pill. A spiritual weapon was
different. If one were able to obtain a spiritual weapon, they would be
increasing their power by more than a bit.
“One hundred million gold pieces? Tsk, tsk. You’d want to obtain this
spiritual weapon with only one hundred million gold pieces? Dream on!
Spiritual weapons are considered as priceless treasures. Even if the
price is right, no one would sell it off. I bid two hundred million gold
pieces!”
“Wait a minute, give me a bit of time, I’m going to sell off my family
property.”
A bidder who had been unable to quote a price gritted his teeth and
chimed in.
Clearly, the auctioneer knew that something like this would happen. He
merely smiled, “Prior to this auction, we have already discussed this
matter with our mystery guest. If you are unable to present your capital
in such a short time, you may use your family property as part of the
negotiation. We have an expert appraiser in the hall with us today who
will appraise the properties sent up for auction.”
As he spoke, the auctioneer began to feel a sense of admiration towards
the mysterious benefactor.
When she had arrived to make her contribution, she insisted that her
identity should not be revealed no matter the circumstances. She also
asked that the powerful organizations should not be given the chance to
prepare their gold. This way, she will be able to obtain the properties
of powerful organizations.
Even if she had not strategized the auction in this manner, many powerful
organizations would still have sold their properties for the sake of this
spiritual weapon. Instead of letting others off so easily, it was best to
make things easier for herself.
“Five hundred million.”
Ye Lan stepped out in the heat of the moment then regained his composure
and calmly made his bid.
Boom!
The crowd once again flew into a sensation.
They certainly never expected to witness an auction with a five hundred
million bid.
However, the auction was still not over. Many powerful organizations were
still fighting over the spiritual weapon.
“Send out a message immediately, and ask my father this: ‘How many
properties can we sell?’. I must have this spiritual weapon.”
A glint of excitement flashed across Bai Xin’s eyes. He took a deep
breath and spoke with a serious look on his face.
One spiritual weapon is enough to drive many people into madness.
“Yes, Young Master.”
The person behind him joined his fists and bowed respectfully before
disappearing from the private box.
Soon, he returned and whispered a few words into Bai Xin’s ear. Hearing
his words, Bai Xin’s eyes sparkled as he announced with confidence,
“Eight hundred million gold pieces!”
Boom!
This was another surprising turn of events, causing everyone in the room
to tremble with fear.
Eight hundred million! Heavens, I would never be able to grasp that
amount of money in this life, even if I don’t eat or drink and at all.
Not in this lifetime. The crowd thought in unison.
The Governor of White Glory City certainly has a lot of money.
“Ten hundred million gold pieces!”
Ye Lan was clearly annoyed and he glared coldly at Bai Xin’s box, “The
son of White Glory City is certainly very rich.”
Bang!
As if he had been suddenly dunked into a tank of cold water, Bai Xin’s
face immediately turned pale and his eyes filled with concern.
Now that the Master of the Ye family has his eye on this spiritual
weapon, should I bow and give way? Wondered Bai Xin. But honestly, I will
not be satisfied if I had left this auction empty-handed.
