Chapter 634 Raise the Price Crazily!

“Hello, everyone.”

A person came out from behind the wall of the auction stage. Under the light, he looked at the dense crowd with a smile on his face and said, “Thank you for taking the time of your busy schedules to participate in this temporary auction!”

As people took a closer look, the person on the stage was the middle-aged manager who was in charge of arranging this auction.

The middle-aged manager smiled and said, “Sorry to keep you waiting. I now announce that the auction begins. Please invite the auctioneer to come on stage.”

After he said that, a young man in a professional auctioneer’s suit stepped onto the stage. The middle-aged manager also went backstage.

“Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.”

At first, the auctioneer bowed to everyone in a very gentlemanly manner, and then said, “Welcome to this auction. I am Li Jun, the registered auctioneer of Huaxia. Today’s auction will be hosted by me. I feel very honored, and I also hope to bring you good luck.

“Next, let me announce today’s auction rules.

“First of all, we will auction all kinds of weapons today. There are a total of 50 weapons in this auction, including 35 swords, 3 sabers, 1 pair of claws, 1 dagger, among which 31 are ordinary weapons and 19 are treasure weapons.

“Today, we will adapt the way of increasing auction. Everyone knows the rules of the bidding, so I won’t say anything more.

“Next, let’s welcome the first item to the stage!”

As the auctioneer spoke, a woman in a professional suit immediately came out backstage. She was holding a small weapon rack with a long sword on it.

“This sword is called Crouching Dragon.”

The auctioneer pointed at the sword with a smile and said, “It is a weapon made of Thousand-Piece Steel. Not only is it suitable for practicing, but it is also good for carrying and nurturing all the time. The body of the sword, along with the hilt, is made of Thousand-Piece Steel. It was made by a famous casting master in Longquan, using a secret method. Not only the blade is sharp, but the overall flexibility is also incredible. If the person who uses it is over 500 kilograms, they can even slash steel with this sword!”

As people heard this, they started to speak in whispers in the auction house.

It seemed that many people were interested in this sword.

After all, although most people came here for the Guru Sword, how many people could afford it? It was good enough for them to take a look at it. Except for those large forces, some individuals who came alone to the auction could only look at the low-class treasure swords and ordinary long swords.

“The starting price of this sword is 50,000, and the price will be increased by 10,000 per time.”

As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, someone immediately began bidding.

“What the f*ck, they’re selling a sword for 50,000?” He Gaoming was dumbfounded.

Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “That’s relatively low. Long Qiyun’s manual fee is 500,000. This sword might not be made by a famous person. Otherwise, the starting price would not be so low.”

He Gaoming nodded and said, “Indeed. Although the treasure sword is very expensive, the quality of the sword itself is also very important. If the quality is not good, the price will be greatly reduced.

“Alas, if I had known earlier, I would have gone to learn how to forge iron and sword. How could I be a detective!”

Fang Qiu was rendered speechless.

Looking at the first row, he saw that the four families, the people of the government, and more than a dozen medium-sized families didn’t have the desire to bid at all. Instead, they leisurely enjoyed the tea served by the waiter.

On the auction stage, the first item was sold successfully. Its final price was 130,000.

“It seems that people will bid blindly,” Fang Qiu murmured.

Then, the second, third, fourth, and fifth item were all ordinary items.

When the five items were added together, they were worth 500,000 yuan in total.

When it came to the sixth item, the auctioneer’s voice suddenly grew louder.

The auctioneer introduced and said, “The next item is a treasure sword. Let’s see the sixth item.”

A treasure sword?

When everyone heard this word, they immediately cheered up and drew their attention on the auction stage.

“This is a fifth-class treasure sword!” After the weapon was put on the stage, the auctioneer began to give it a big build-up.

Obviously, this was one of the two fifth-class swords that Fang Qiu had commissioned the auction agency to auction.

There was no doubt that the appearance of the first sword immediately aroused many people’s desire to compete, especially the fourth-class Martial Superiors who couldn’t break through for a long time. They all tried to seize this opportunity and wanted to take this fifth-class sword.

As a result, after a round of bidding, the first treasure sword’s bidding was finally set at 1,700,000.

It was 200,000 higher than Fang Qiu had expected.

Then, some ordinary weapons appeared on the stage.

During this period, the second fifth-class sword also appeared on the stage at the right time. This time, because it was specifically marked as the last fifth-class treasure sword in this auction, the final price was 100,000 higher than the previous one, reaching 1,800,000.

Two fifth-class swords were sold at the price of 3,500,000.

In general, it was 500,000 higher than what Fang Qiu and the middle-aged manager had expected, which made Fang Qiu quite satisfied.

If even a fifth-class sword could be sold for such a high price, then the price of the powerful weapons, which were about to go on stage, would obviously be even more unexpected.

“Master, you’re going to earn a fortune this time.”

He Gaoming whispered in Fang Qiu’s ear, “I thought it would be very good if a fifth-class weapon could sell for 1,000,000. I didn’t expect it to be sold at such a high price.”

“Isn’t it good to be higher?” Fang Qiu rolled his eyes at He Gaoming.

He was not surprised at all that He Gaoming knew that these swords belonged to him, because He Gaoming had secretly taken one of them away when he had been casting swords in the Long family.

That was the sixth-class sword cast by Fang Qiu.

Therefore, He Gaoming must have known it.

“Haha, master, you can’t be the one who made the Guru Sword, can you?” He Gaoming asked in a low voice.

Fang Qiu ignored him.
