308 Harvest! (1/2)

Chapter 308: Harvest!

Translator: Rain Editor: Chrissy

A million made 100 thousand. It was not a small profit, yet it wasn’t a big one. Ten billion made one billion. That was huge. The total price of this auction was 145 billion and 80 million. The circulating money in the whole Land of Han-Yang would be less than half of this amount.

Thus, the total money Ling-Bao Hall made from the pledge business was huge!

In fact, people who attended this auction, especially those from the noble clans, they knew it was an auction for some extremely precious dan beads, yet they still didn’t bring much money, because they thought they didn’t have chance to snatch the dan beads. Everybody knew that the great sects would lay their hands on this auction. That was why everybody just wanted to see if there was good luck for them to get something. They would buy something nice if they had the chance, but they would just quit if they didn’t. They didn’t bring enough money, but they brought a lot. If they wanted to by a Bone Ablutionary Dan bead for 300 million, they could afford it easily.

However, things changed too fast. The auction was an unexpectedly hot event. The Sunlight Sect made some trouble during the auction and got kicked out. Two great sects were both bullied and extorted by Master Bai. They were both gone at the end.

The House of the Chaotic Storms left quietly after the two great sects left. The opportunity suddenly came to people in the crowd.

That was some chance to acquire two, three, four, five dan beads… As long as there was money, there was dan beads.

The more the better!

The noble clans went crazy facing such an opportunity.

They didn’t bring enough money, so what should they do?

They just made bids. They would rather be in debt to win more dan beads. They sent their men back to their family for more money. They paid, they got what they won. It was just a normal thing in the salesroom.

However, this time the number was quite huge. The trading business was the most important thing to the noble clans. They would never take their money out recklessly. Since they couldn’t get enough money, they had to make a pledge.

They took all the valuable materials they had collected for all the years to the Chen-Xing City. Ling-Bao Hall would make an evaluation.

The Long Clan was the greediest one. They got ten supreme dan beads, and it totally costed them over 3 billion. How could they possibly get so much money in such a short time? They nearly cleared the entire stock of their clan, and their clan had spent thousands of years to collect all those treasures.

Anyways, they still felt lucky. They thought they had taken a great advantage this time…

All in all…

The number was about 145 billion. In fact, they had made at least 160 billion this time. They only got less than 80 billion in cash, and the rest were all different kinds of items. In other words, they made 15 billion more than what they appeared to earn!

They didn’t need to share it to the Kingdom of Chen.

The profit was about 72 billion this time.

As they promised, they would have to pay 14 billion as tax and sixty percent of the profit as donation to the kingdom. That made it 42 billion. Besides, they needed to give ten percent to the military. That was about 7 billion.

Thus, suddenly there was a 63 billion deduction.

According to that, Ling-Bao Hall had only earned over 10 billion.

Wan Zhenghao was satisfied already.

“We have to share the wealth. If we keep it to ourselves, it will choke us to death.” That was how he put it.

What he said made Feng Monarch lost in thoughts for a while. Feng Monarch found it quite reasonable.
