Tian Xiaoding, Yue Yurou, Cheng Yaowei and others went to Yongsheng Auction House to participate in the Golden Lingzhu auction.

In Lingyun City, Yongsheng Auction House can be regarded as one of the top industry leaders in the city. Because the owner of the auction house, Qi Yongsheng, is very good at business operations and he knows how to build relationships with people from Lingyun Sect, Yongsheng Auction House is very famous in Lingyun City.

The auction venue built by Yongsheng Auction House alone can accommodate two to three thousand people.

It can be seen how popular their business is usually.

After Xiao Ding and others entered the venue, the boss Qi Yongsheng personally took the stage to preside over the auction.

First of all, the first item to be auctioned is a skill book called "The Secret Technique of Raising Gu". This type of book is off-the-beaten-path, and most monks won't have much interest in it.

After all, the art of cultivating gu is often despised by some so-called upright people from well-known families, who usually think it is a crooked way.

Therefore, although Qi Yongsheng introduced the book incessantly for a long time, when it came time to start bidding, no one raised a placard to bid.

This may also be because everyone is thinking about keeping the spiritual stones in their pockets and preparing to bid on those items that they have been optimistic about in advance.

For such a dispensable thing, most people will not pay to take pictures.

I heard Qi Yongsheng holding the book in his hand and still asking: "This "Secret Technique of Raising Gu" has a base price of 500 low-grade white spiritual stones. Does anyone want to bid? This is a unique secret technique of some sects. I want to look for it when you need it, but it’s not that easy to find. Does anyone want to bid for it?”

Qi Yongsheng asked several times in a row. The audience was quiet, but no one was willing to bid for this book.

Just when Qi Yongsheng felt that no one would want this book and was about to put it away, a voice suddenly came from the audience:

"I will give you six hundred low-grade white spiritual stones."

Qi Yongsheng looked over following the sound and saw a person sitting in area B below the stage. He raised a bidding sign with six hundred spirit stones written on it, and the seat number showed one hundred and ninety. Number eight.

All bidders at the venue have a bidding card sent by the auction house. This bidding card is made of special materials and is also a magic weapon-level artifact. It will display a shining seat number. Moreover, if you write on it with your fingers, it will show shining writing.

If you want to change to another word, just wipe it with your hand, and the previously written words will be wiped away.

It was Xiao Ding who was raising a sign in the audience to shout out the price.

Xiao Ding had not originally thought about making this book. However, he suddenly thought that if he wanted to make another batch of materials for refining the regeneration pill, the fire locust would be extremely difficult to find. If you take pictures of this book, learn some methods of raising voodoos, and then catch a few fireflies and cultivate them into voodoos, wouldn’t you have fireflies?

Therefore, he belatedly raised his placard to bid.

Qi Yongsheng on the stage originally thought that no one would bid for this book. When he was disappointed, he suddenly saw someone holding a placard in the audience. He quickly shouted out of habit: "This friend from District B bids." Six hundred low-grade white spiritual stones, is there anyone willing to pay a higher price to bid for this "Secret Technique of Raising Gu"?"

He looked around and asked several times if anyone had offered a higher price, but no one came to bid.

With no other choice, Qi Yongsheng had to turn to Xiao Ding's direction again and shouted loudly: "Six hundred spirit stones for the first time! Six hundred spirit stones for the second time! Six hundred spirit stones for the third time!"

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the audience, knocked the wooden hammer in his hand, and said: "Since no one else offers a price, then I declare that this "Secret Art of Raising Gu" is the seat number 198 It belongs to this fellow Taoist."

After saying that, he put the book in his hand back into the box containing the book, then turned around and handed it to an attendant from the auction house who was standing guard under the steps.

The attendant carefully took the box containing the book, then turned and walked down the steps, delivered it directly to Xiao Ding, handed the "Secret Technique of Raising Gu" to Xiao Ding, and asked Xiao Ding to stay after the meeting to deliver the spirit stone.

Fortunately, the first item was not rotten in his hands, and Qi Yongsheng took out the second auction item.

This is a black soil purple ginseng.

Qi Yongsheng introduced in a loud voice: "Today's second auction item is an 800-year-old black soil purple ginseng. All Taoist friends should know that black soil purple ginseng is used to refine the foundation building pill. One of the main medicinal materials. Of course, if you do not use it to refine the Foundation Building Pill and take it alone, it also has a very tonic effect. It can also help improve your cultivation."

When the monks in the audience saw that the second auction item was black soil purple ginseng, and it was 800 years old, some of them immediately became excited.

Because at the venue, most of the monks who came to participate in the auction were still in the Qi training period. Since it is the Qi training period, one will inevitably face the threshold of foundation building. The Foundation Building Pill will be something that every Qi Practitioner must prepare in advance.

Without the Foundation Building Pill, most monks who have perfected their Qi training would not be able to successfully build the Foundation.

Therefore, as soon as this second auction item was taken out, the response from the audience immediately became active.

When Qi Yongsheng saw the people in the audience, they were already eager to try it before he even started talking about the price, which made him very happy.

So, he struck while the iron was hot and said: "Fellow Taoists, this black soil purple ginseng is eight hundred years old. Old ginseng of such a high age is not so easy to get. So, this old ginseng The price will also be a bit higher. The minimum bidding price is 10,000 yuan of low-grade white spirit stones. The price increase for each auction cannot be less than 1,000 yuan of spirit stones..."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone in the audience shouted loudly:

"I will offer you 10,000 low-grade spiritual stones..."

"I will offer you 10,200 low-grade spiritual stones..."

"I will offer you 10,300 low-grade spiritual stones..."

"I will offer you 10,500 low-grade spiritual stones..."

"I will offer 20,000 low-grade spiritual stones..."

"..."

The price of this black soil purple ginseng soared all the way, and finally reached the price of 100,000 low-grade white spiritual stones. Finally, no one continued to raise the price.

After all, not everyone can get so many spirit stones. Anyone who can pay such a high price is either rich or expensive. Either they were wealthy businessmen, or people like Xiao Ding who had had adventures or had made money from outside.

This time, Xiao Ding did not bid. After all, his Qiankun Pot contains a lot of old ginseng that is over a thousand years old. At first, he followed his senior sister Cheng Yaowei to Soul Burial Mountain to look for foundation building pill materials. As a result, he carried the old ginseng in the middle and the oldest among the purple ginseng in the black soil in the Black Mist Valley, one by one, into his Qiankun Pot.

Therefore, from then on, if others go to the Black Mist Valley to look for black soil purple ginseng, it will be difficult to find old ginseng that is more than a thousand years old.

This is one of the main reasons why this 800-year-old ginseng is so popular today.

The big one among the piles of 800-year-olds is now very rare and expensive in the market.

This old ginseng plant was eventually bought by a wealthy businessman in Lingyun City for the price of 100,000 low-grade spiritual stones.

For many well-known wealthy businessmen in Lingyun City, many people present knew them. We all live in the same city, so we all have heard about it to some extent.

As for wealthy businessmen, most of them know each other, and some are even very familiar with each other, or have business contacts.

They all live in the same circle and are of the same class, so it is normal for everyone to know each other.

This second auction item fetched an unexpected price for Qi Yongsheng, which instantly wiped away the depression he felt when he auctioned the first item.

At this time, his face was red and he said excitedly: "Since no one continues to bid, then I announce that this 800-year-old black soil purple ginseng was finally bought by the Taoist friend in seat 727 in Area A. Let’s congratulate him together!”

As soon as his words fell, the audience immediately remembered thunderous applause. Someone was still shouting: "Congratulations to Boss Liu, the bidding was successful!"

Qi Yongsheng also put the black soil purple ginseng into the jade box before handing it to the attendant standing guard under the steps to deliver the black soil purple ginseng to the successful bidder, Boss Liu.

The main reason why Yongsheng Auction House dares to deliver goods first and collect money later is because the Lingyun Sect is behind their auction house. No one dares to default on the debt here. Even if someone wants to default on the debt, they must think about it in advance. Does he dare to offend Lingyun Sect?

Therefore, Yongsheng Auction House delivers the auction items to the bidders first, which makes it even more difficult for the bidders to default on their debts. You’ve got everything, but you still want to default on your debt? That must mean living impatiently.

Next, Qi Yongsheng auctioned more than a dozen items one after another. Most of them are not that unusual. Therefore, the bidding is not as fierce as the black soil purple ginseng.

Although it is not intense, it is not as uninterested as the first auction item. More or less, some people will come to take pictures.

After all, there are only a few wealthy businessmen. Most monks know how many spirit stones they have in their pockets. Although they also yearn for the golden spirit beads that are the focus of this auction, they still have to have the strength to bid!

Just now, the price of a black soil purple ginseng plant has soared to the price of 100,000 low-grade spiritual stones. This also made many monks in the field realize that if they did not have 100,000 spiritual stones in their pockets, they might not even have a chance to bid for the golden spiritual beads.

Therefore, these people changed their minds midway and settled for the next best thing, choosing to bid for other items that they could use.

Although only the black soil purple ginseng plant made the monks in the venue become more enthusiastic, Qi Yongsheng was still very happy to see people bidding on every auction item.

After auctioning more than a dozen items in a row, it was finally the turn of the beautiful sword that Xiao Ding had been thinking about.
