Chapter 635 - It’s Already 55,000,000!
Just as Fang Qiu and He Gaoming were worried and saw that the hammer of the auction was about to fall, another bidding sound was heard.
At the next moment, “Row 17, No. 8, bids 8,000,000!”
The person who had previously bid 7,500,000 raised the price again.
“Row 7, No. 33, bids 8,300,000!”
For a moment, the two of them seemed to be at odds with each other. They kept raising the price one after another.
Upon seeing this situation, Fang Qiu breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the final price of the two sixth-class swords was 8,000,000, it was beyond Fang Qiu’s expectations. Fang Qiu was also very satisfied.
Fang Qiu said, “Before the auction started, Chic Cloud Pavilion had informed people of the number of items auctioned this time. Everyone knows that there are a lot of sixth-class swords, so they are unwilling to raise the price if it is over a certain amount. They want to buy the next one.”
...
He Gaoming nodded and said, “That’s true. In principle, if they dare to announce the number of the items, they should have taken countermeasures. I don’t know how they will solve this problem.”
Fang Qiu was also very curious.
As the top auction house in the martial arts world, Chic Cloud Pavilion should not have neglected this problem.
The auction continued.
The auctioneer smiled and said, “You’re right. The next item is still a sixth-class sword!”
While he was speaking, the staff member lifted another rack and walked out.
It was different from the last time.
This time, there were not only one or two long swords on the rack, but three!
Upon seeing that, everyone on the scene was shocked.
“What the f*ck, are you trying to sell in bundle?”
“Motherf*cker, they typically exclude individuals from the bidding. I can’t buy the first one. Now they don’t even give me a chance to buy it, do they?”
“Damn it, my sixth-class sword. This time, there are three swords. Next time, will there be four swords? How can I buy them?”
“Aren’t there only six left? Let’s wait and see.”
For a moment, many people on the scene began to complain.
On the auction stage...
“You’re right. There are three of them this time!” With a professional smile on his face, the auctioneer said, “Three sixth-class swords are a rare way to improve a small force’s overall strength. It is also an opportunity that a medium force cannot miss either. Then who will be the one to get these three sixth-class swords?
“According to the old rules, the starting price of the three swords is 9,000,000, and each increase must be no less than 100,000!
...
“The auction begins!” As the auctioneer finished his words, bidding sounds immediately echoed one after another.
This time, not only the small forces competing for the two sixth-class swords last time, but also some middle-sized forces joined in the competition.
Even some large forces began to have the urge to fight for them.
10,000,000... 11,000,000... 12,000,000...
The price was increasing quickly.
Everyone knew that there were not so many remaining swords of the sixth-class left. And it might turn into another one sword or four swords next time. At that time, it would be more difficult to compete for them. Therefore, many people of medium-sized forces made up their minds to take these three sixth-class swords.
In the end, as it was expected, the price broke through again.
Three sixth-class swords were sold at a high price of 13,000,000.
“Next, it’s still a sixth-class treasure sword.”
The auctioneer opened his mouth again and showed an expression like “I was also very helpless”. He said, “But I can promise you all that this will be the last time!”
Everyone was stunned as soon as he finished his words.
The last time?
What did that mean?
Weren’t there still six sixth-class swords left?
Just as everyone was confused, the item was displayed on the stage.
It was a bigger weapon rack with three long swords on the left and right sides. There were six swords in total!
Everyone present was stunned when they saw them.
“Damn it!”
“How could it be like this?”
“What the f*ck, six swords are auctioned at the same time?”
“F*ck, I’m really speechless!”
“Why don’t you fu*king separate them and sell them one by one? What do you mean by doing this?”
The people who were bidding alone were all dumbfounded.
They really thought that there were still a lot of sixth-class swords. They could wait to buy the next one, but they didn’t expect that they wouldn’t even have the chance to bid after waiting for such a long time.
They could barely bid for one sword. With six swords at the same time, they couldn’t even afford the starting price.
What could they do?
However, no matter how many people were dissatisfied, the auction was still continuing.
The people of medium-sized forces couldn’t help but start bidding crazily.
There were six sixth-class treasure swords!
If they bought them, they could cultivate six sixth-class Martial Superiors at the same time. Moreover, this sword could be passed on to the next generation all the time. If these six swords were taken by a small force, in a few years, this small force would inevitably grow into a medium-sized force. If they were taken by a medium-sized force, it might even develop into a large force in a few years.
For a moment, all the medium-sized forces went crazy.
At the same time, some large forces were also ready to take action.
...
In the first row where the four noble families were, the old man who came with Diwu Qian said, “Ma’am, do you want to make a move?”
Diwu Qian smiled and said, “Don’t worry. Let’s wait and see. The price of a sixth-class sword is about 4,000,000. It’s meaningless if it’s too much.”
Zhan Lin looked at Diwu Qian and said with a smile, “That’s right. If you want them, Qian, I can buy and give them to you.”
“Lin, I can’t afford to owe you a favor.” Diwu Qian shook her head. When she spoke, she emphasized her name as if she was reminding Zhan Lin that she was a woman.
“Director Lu, are you interested?” Qian Xiao asked Lu Zhiyuan with a smile.
“I’m interested, but I don’t have enough funds.” Director Lu laughed.
“Director Lu, you must be joking. The Xi family has a big business. Tens of millions is just a small amount of money.”
Qian Xiao chuckled and scanned the sensing area with his own number card. Then, he quickly tapped the numbers.
At this time, the bidding price of the six sixth-class swords had already risen from 18,000,000 to 21,000,000.
As Qian Xiao pressed, “Row 1, No. 48, bids 23,000,000!”
As soon as the bidding voice sounded, the auctioneer immediately shouted out this number.
“23,000,000?”
“It’s really a big deal.”
“He directly raised the price by 2,000,000. He really lives up to be a member of the Qian family.”
“As soon as the Qian family makes a move, I’m afraid no one will dare to compete with them. It seems that these six sixth-class swords will be taken away by the Qian family at a low price.”
The crowd began to talk about it.
Beep! Suddenly, another bidding sound was heard.
The auctioneer shouted, “Row 1, No. 50, offers 24,000,000.”
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately turned around and saw that it was Zhan Lin who had made a bid.
Qian Xiao turned around and asked with a smile, “Miss Zhan, are you interested?”
“I do. But it depends on what price I can get.” Zhan Lin smiled faintly.
“Miss Zhan’s offer is very unexpected.”
Lu Zhiyuan laughed and said, “It’s a loss to raise the price. Even if I don’t raise the price, it’s still a loss.”
“Why don’t I suffer a little bit?” Diwu Qian smiled and started bidding.
Beep!
“Row 1, No. 51, offers 25,000,000.”
At this moment, the entire auction hall became quiet.
Everyone knew that this was just a trick in the competition between the four major families. Even if it was just a trick, it was still a good show.
...
Undoubtedly, everyone knew that the attention of the four major families must be drawn to the Guru Sword. Now, they were just testing each other with these six sixth-class swords.
As expected, after Diwu Qian bid, Zhan Lin immediately laughed and said, “Since you want it, then I won’t compete with you.”
“Thank you for your kindness, Lin.” Diwu Qian also smiled.
At that time... Beep!
Another bidding sound rang out.
“Row 1, No. 48, bids 26,000,000.”
Qian Xiao, who was on the 48th seat, immediately turned his head and smiled at Diwu Qian after the auctioneer’s voice sounded. He said, “I have a mission, Qian. If you need them, I will give them to you if you can add the price and bear the loss. What do you say?”
“Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Qian. You can take them.”
Diwu Qian smiled lightly and did not raise the price anymore!
In the end, the final price of six sixth-class swords was set at 26,000,000.
Fang Qiu smiled.
He Gaoming also grinned.
“Awesome.”
He Gaoming said with admiration, “It’s worthy of being the first auction house in Wulin. This auction is so treacherous. They announced in advanced that there were a total of 12 sixth-class swords, but they were divided into four bundles to auction. Only one sword was for ordinary people to bid. The next two were fought for by the small forces, and then three of them were fought for by the medium forces. In the end, all six of swords are taken out and they let the big forces compete for them. This kind of auction will not only not offend the participants of any class, but also maximize the benefits. It’s really amazing.”
“Not bad, not bad.”
Fang Qiu nodded with a satisfied smile and calculated in his heart, “Two fifth-class swords are 3,5,000,000. Plus 51,500,000 earned by selling 12 sixth-class swords, there would be 55,500,000.”
He thought to himself, “This time, I really made a fortune. It’s really easy to make money by crafting weapons.”
Fang Qiu laughed right away as he thought of this.
Upon seeing the smile on Fang Qiu’s face, He Gaoming immediately stretched out his head and stared at Fang Qiu expectantly. He smiled fawningly and said, “Master, please take care of me!”
“Get lost!” Fang Qiu was startled by him.
He was such a big man and suddenly acted like a woman in a brothel, which was disgusting.
On the auction stage, with the six sixth-class swords taken by the Qian family, the auction officially entered the competitive stage of various large forces.
“The sixth-class weapons are sold out.”
The auctioneer looked at everyone present and said, “Today’s auction will officially enter the climax stage. Next there will be three seventh-class swords.
“Of course, you don’t have to worry. These three swords will be auctioned separately.”
Upon hearing that, many people breathed a sigh of relief.
If the seventh-class swords were auctioned in bundles again, then many people wouldn’t be able to take part in the bidding.
“Well, let’s welcome our first seventh-class sword!” The auctioneer shouted.
The staff member immediately came out of the backstage. This time, there was no sword rack. There was only a bronze tray. The long sword was placed in the tray.
Seeing this seventh-class long sword, many people’s eyes lit up in the auction house.
The four representatives of the four noble families were also ready to take action at any time, waiting for the auctioneer to announce the starting price.
“Since everyone can’t wait, I won’t waste any time.”
The auctioneer opened his mouth and said, “The starting price of a seventh-class sword is 6,000,000, and the price markup each time is no less than 100,000.
“The bidding begins!”
