42 It is Totally A Counter! (1/2)

Fortunately, the childe did not only look at Gu Xijiu. Instead, he started scanning through all the guests on the second floor before he slowly sat down and waited for another herb to be auctioned.

Finally, the illusion weed that Gu Xijiu had wanted to get her hands on was being auctioned. Like the other herbs, it was placed in a crystal box. The crystal box was exquisitely carved and a crimson-colored weed could vaguely be seen.

This weed was extremely rare; hence, the bidding price started at 50,000 ounces of silver. As Rong Chu was determined to win this weed, he raised the bid to 100,000.

Even though the childe usually raised the bidding price by 100,000 ounces of silver for the other herbs, he changed his mind this time. As Rong Chu had just finished his sentence, he slowly said, ”Add an ounce of silver!”

Rong Chu was gnashing his teeth and bid again, ”150,000!”

The young childe then bid once more, ”150,001.”

”200,000!” Rong Chu simply added 50,000 each time he raised the bid.

”200,001.” Said the childe. His voice was still rather calm.

”250,000!”

”250,001.”

...

It was totally a showdown between Rong Chu and the childe now!

Rong Chu clenched his fists as he stared coldly at the childe. If his eyesight could kill, the childe would have died 800 times by now.

The Tianwen saint, who was sitting by his side, showed signs of trembling at her lips. The eyes of Rong Chu flashed and he calmly continued his bidding.
