Chapter 1422: An Item of the Grandmist Era (1/2)
Everyone was stunned for a second. Other than Huang Xiaolong, there was still someone so tactless as to compete against Wang Tong!
Wang Tong couldn’t believe his ears.
“Young Lord Wang, should we investigate the person in private room number three?” Chen Xiao inquired.
Wang Tong’s eyes narrowed coldly. “Find out and report to me immediately.”
People were provoking him again and again during this auction, not just him but the prestige of Royal Buddha Emperor Palace!
Chen Xiao complied.
”13.2 million low grade-eight spirit stones!” Wang Tong subsequently shouted. His expression was extremely gloomy. ‘You want to play, this Young Lord will accompany you to the end!’
“13.3 million low grade-eight spirit stones.” Barely a second passed, and the female guest in private room number three made a bid. Her voice was still frosty as ever.
The female guest doesn’t seem anxious at all, as she is increasing the price by a hundred thousand every time.
“Uncle, you’re not bidding?” Bei Xiaomei turned her head sideways and asked Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong smiled confidently as he answered, “There is no hurry.”
Since the little cow had a way to repair this Cauldron Dragon Flying Ship, Huang Xiaolong was naturally going to bid for it. As for the materials required for repairing the ship, he was going to think of a way to get those from the Heaven’s Avenue after securing the ship.
“13.4 million!” Wang Tong’s voice was extremely sullen as he added, “Low grade-eight spirit stones!”
“13.5 million!”
“13.6 million!”
……
The two voices echoed endlessly in the hall. Even though each increment was only a hundred thousand, in a short time, the price had already reached 16 million.
The other families’ Patriarchs and Sect Chiefs could feel their hearts quivered, as they listened to the nonstop rising price.
Sixteen million low grade-eight spirit stones!
Some big families couldn’t even dream of gathering that many spirit stones, even if they were to sell every pot and iron they had.
When Wang Tong, and the woman from private room number three raised the price to sixteen million, the auction hall below them, went deathly quiet.
Bei Xiaomei supported her chin with her palms, looking extremely disinterested. Huang Xiaolong could hear her mumble, “Boring.”
“Seventeen million low grade-eight spirit stones!” Wang Tong suddenly raised his voice and shouted from private room number one. It was looking like the dogged chase by the woman from private room number three had pushed Wang Tong into a corner, which had prompted him to increase the bid by one million in one go.
“17.1 million low grade-eight spirit stones.” The woman from private room number three maintained a lackadaisical manner in bidding.
Huang Xiaolong suddenly interjected, “Twenty million low grade-eight spirit stones.”
Huang Xiaolong’s sudden interjection dumbfounded everyone.
Wang Tong blanked for a moment, then fixed a venomous cold glare at Huang Xiaolong. As Huang Xiaolong had remained silent since the God King’s Buddha Pellets and Buddha Pastes, he had thought that Huang Xiaolong was finally going to be obedient and wouldn't bid against him anymore. Who would’ve thought that Huang Xiaolong was so tactless.
“Twenty-one million low grade-eight spirit stones.” When everyone’s attention was on Huang Xiaolong, a thick male voice sounded from private room number eight.
Huang Xiaolong’s brows creased slightly.
But Bei Xiaomei immediately became spirited and flashed Huang Xiaolong a radiant smile as she taunted, “Uncle, do you have enough money? Why don’t I give you my ten million?”
Huang Xiaolong was surprised and asked her, “You’re not afraid I won’t pay you back?”
Bei Xiaomei pursed her lips at Huang Xiaolong’s question. “It’s just ten million low grade-eight spirit stones, it doesn’t matter even if you don’t pay it back.”
Huang Xiaolong almost broke out in cold sweat, why does Bei Xiaomei’s words sound as if he was being stingy? After all, he had refused her request to lend her five million low grade-eight spirit stones.
“No need, I still have spirit stones.” Huang Xiaolong then turned towards the auction stage and shouted, “Twenty-five million low grade-eight spirit stones!”
Huang Xiaolong had increased the price by four million in one go.
