Hearing the words "Thousand-Year Molten Star Grass", Long Chen's heart beat a few times very unsatisfactorily. This was his ultimate goal of coming to this auction. It can be said that he was determined to win.
If he uses the Millennium Molten Star Grass, Long Chen is 100% sure to refine a high-grade Molten Star Pill. Such Molten Star Pill can 100% dissolve the alien spiritual energy in Chu Yao's body.
Originally, Long Chen did not expect to obtain Molten Star Grass that was over a thousand years old. Molten Star Grass that was a hundred years old was already very rare. After all, Molten Star Grass was one of the essential ingredients for many second-level elixirs.
The harvesting process is also very strict, with a huge gap. The difference between the molten star pill refined from ordinary molten star grass and the thousand-year molten star grass is incalculable.
For Chu Yao, he had to get it no matter what price he paid. Originally, there was no problem for him to get these ten Molten Star Grasses, so he didn't deliberately take care of Huayun Pavilion.
After all, Huayun Pavilion attaches great importance to reputation. If the items on the list are withheld privately, Huayun Pavilion will not be able to explain to the outside world, so it is basically impossible for Huayun Pavilion to open this back door for itself. It is better not to open the door to avoid letting everyone know.
All embarrassed.
However, even though the Molten Star Grass is precious, there are not many alchemists after all. Long Chen believes that with his own financial resources, it is a sure thing.
But it's different now. That idiot woman Xia Baichi has been staring at him. If she knew his purpose, I'm afraid that idiot woman would bankrupt Long Chen and even have to take off his pants.
So before Long Chen, no matter what treasure came out, he would shout at the top of his lungs. As soon as Xia Baichi took action, he would continue to shout, as if he was against Xia Baichi and deliberately tricked her. In fact, Long Chen was just to pave the way for this step.
"Ten Thousand-year-old Molten Star Grass, and more than a dozen precious second-level elixirs are essential medicinal ingredients. I don't need to say more about its preciousness.
Ten Millennium Molten Star Grasses, bundled for auction, starting price is 500,000 gold coins." Yao Niqian dropped her hand.
"Seven hundred thousand"
"Eight hundred thousand"
"..."
As Yao Niqian's voice fell, more than a dozen people began to bid one after another. These people were basically old people.
Long Chen saw a few familiar figures, they were all old guys he had met in the Alchemist Guild, but they were all alchemy disciples at the same level as him.
There are also some unfamiliar faces, but I guess they are also some alchemists, otherwise laymen would never know the true value and use of this kind of thing.
"two million"
Seeing an old man defeating all his opponents with a price of 1.8 million, Long Chen finally shouted out his price when Yao Niqian started counting down.
But shouting out this price made Long Chen's heart suddenly rise. Originally, he was praying, hoping that Xia Baichi would also shout out the price, so that he could take the initiative and make it look like he was targeting Xia Baichi.
In that case, he was most likely to obtain the Molten Star Grass at the lowest price and in the safest way.
But God seemed to be asleep and didn't hear Long Chen's prayer. Xia Baichi, an alchemy disciple, actually showed no interest in the Molten Star Grass, which made Long Chen curse.
"Miss Baichi, how are you? Do you want to try the water?" After Long Chen called his number, he immediately said calmly to Xia Baichi's box.
After Long Chen finished shouting, the whole place fell silent: Could it be that Long Chen wanted to use this to demonstrate against Xia Baichi?
"Bai Chi, don't be fooled, this kid deliberately angered you," Xia Changfeng said quickly, he was afraid that Xia Baichi would start acting stupid again in anger.
"Do you think this girl is an idiot? Would such a low-level person be fooled?" Xia Baichi's cold voice came, full of disdain.
Hearing Xia Baichi's reply, Long Chen couldn't help but feel overjoyed, but he didn't dare to show it, and said in a strange tone, "Miss Baichi, you're not short of money anymore, are you?"
"You... fart, I can bury you alive with my money." Xia Baichi was furious, rushed out of the box, pointed at Long Chen's box and cursed.
The majestic princess of a country actually behaved violently in public, making everyone look weird and look at each other.
Xia Changfeng's face darkened, and he quickly pulled Xia Baichi back, who was scolding like a shrew. This time, Xia Baichi had lost the face of the entire Great Xia Kingdom to the Fengming Empire.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the scene was a bit strange, and the originally high atmosphere was diluted a lot, which was not conducive to the auction, Yao Niqian hurriedly said: "Prince Long Chen bid two million, is there any higher price than this?
Two million times.
Two million..."
Seeing Yao Niqian starting the countdown, Long Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, he had deceived this idiot again.
"Two million three..."
"three million"
Just when Yao Niqian was about to shout out for the third time, a soft voice came from a box.
Long Chen's expression changed, and he raised his eyes to look at the box. If he remembered correctly, that box was the box where the Yinghou was.
He is neither an alchemy cultivator nor a businessman, so it is unlikely that he knows the true value of Molten Star Grass.
What's more, the two million offered by Long Chen is already considered a high price. Although Molten Star Grass is rare, it can still be collected as long as you have time.
If Long Chen hadn't urgently needed it, he wouldn't have paid this price to let others take advantage of it, but now Yinghou has paid three million, which is almost double the original value.
Although there are no low prices at auctions, this price is too much. The most important thing is that this thing is useless to Yinghou.
There was a flash of fierceness in Long Chen's eyes. This Yinghou was more difficult to deal with than he thought. He had underestimated the three top powerhouses in the empire. No wonder he was as famous as his father and could see through his own plan at a glance.
"Three million and one million"
Long Chen calmly shouted out the price. Now the only bidders left were him and Marquis Ying. Unless he gave up, he would have no choice but to fight to the end.
"Haha, this molten star grass is indeed of some use to me, but if my nephew wants it, I am too embarrassed to fight, so I will let you do it." Yinghou's feminine voice came slowly.
Long Chen's heart was filled with anger. This Yinghou was definitely a tyrant who killed people without blood. He was too Yin.
"four million"
Sure enough, after Marquis Ying finished speaking, Xia Baichi suddenly woke up and shouted out the price with gloating.
Long Chen's face turned a little dark, and Fatty Yu and others also had ugly faces. They also saw that Long Chen was tricked by Ying Hou.
"I don't dare to be a nephew. What kind of person do you think my father is? He guards the frontier, serves the country and the people, is heroic and courageous, and has an iron bone. What remains in my bones is the blood of my father's uprightness. I really can't afford to be called such a noble lord."
Long Chen didn't want to say this originally, but he was tricked by Yinghou. With a small move, he immediately exposed his fatal weakness. Long Chen was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. If he didn't say something, he felt that he was too
So cowardly.
Long Chen's words caused the originally noisy auction house to fall into a dead silence, with only the echo of Long Chen's words stirring back and forth.
The faces of everyone in the Fengming Empire changed. Long Chen was slapping the Yinghou in the face naked. He must have been too courageous.
You must know that the Yinghou is a pillar-level figure in the empire. Even the Queen Mother and the Crown Prince must treat him with great courtesy. Even if Long Tianxiao comes in person, he will not be so rude.
Although there was no curse in what Long Chen just said, on the surface, as long as his mind was not muddled, he would know that Long Chen was secretly cursing the Yinghou and being a despicable villain.
"Haha, young people are just impatient and impatient. My nephew, you still need to practice more. You can't keep calm over the smallest things. This is not conducive to your growth."
What everyone didn't expect was that the powerful Lord Ying showed no sign of anger and just smiled lightly.
Many people couldn't help but secretly sigh, Feng Ming is indeed one of the top experts, his magnanimity and magnanimity are unmatched by anyone.
"Four million, Long Chen, you must be short of money, haha." At this time, Xia Baichi's mocking voice came like a fly.
Xia Baichi is not a fool. After a small bidding by Yinghou, everyone can see that Long Chen values this Molten Star Grass very much.
Having suffered such a big loss before, how could Xia Baichi give up this golden opportunity?
Long Chen took a deep breath. The more he was afraid of, the more likely he would be. Now Xia Baichi hated him to the core. If he wanted to get the Molten Star Grass, he had to prepare for a lot of bleeding.
"Five million," Long Chen said calmly.
There was an uproar in the whole place. It seemed that Long Chen was determined to get this Molten Star Grass, otherwise he would never pay such a sky-high price.
"Ten million"
What made everyone's hearts beat wildly was that Xia Baichi was even more ruthless and doubled the price at once.
Long Chen nodded. Now he has no wisdom and no room to display it. Who let his weakness be exposed by Yinghou?
He even couldn't understand why Yinghou would deliberately target him. Could it be that he did the hands and feet on his body?
But now is not the time to dwell on this. The Molten Star Grass in front of him must be obtained. His time is too tight and he is not allowed to miss it.
And even if Long Chen bows his head at this time, with Xia Baichi's idiotic character, he will only humiliate himself without any effect.
"Fifteen million" Long Chen shouted.
"Eighteen million"
After Long Chen finished shouting, Xia Baichi immediately made a bid. She had fallen into madness. She didn't care about money. She only knew now that as long as it was what Long Chen wanted, she would never let him get it.
"Twenty million"
Long Chen finally shouted out the price. The hearts of everyone in the audience were about to jump out of their chests. That was not something he shouted casually. It was money. The price was already ten times higher than the price.
, this tone is too expensive.
"If you shout one more time, I guarantee that the Molten Star Grass will be yours." After Long Chen shouted out the price, his heart calmed down and he said calmly.
His elixir was mortgaged in Huayun Pavilion and he got a credit limit of 20 million. In other words, he could get a loan of 20 million in Huayun Pavilion.
So when the loan ran out, he calmed down. If Xia Baichi continued to shout, he could only give her the Molten Star Grass.
However, he made up his mind that if Xia Baichi dared to bid again, he wouldn't mind killing people and getting goods.
"Bai Chi, this is enough to make him bleed profusely. Stop shouting. Ten times the price, you have already taken revenge."
Wan buy some useless things.
"Yes, Bai Chi, forget it, now Long Chen has been defeated miserably, and you are just angry." The eldest prince Chu Yang also persuaded with a smile.
Xia Baichi nodded. This time, Long Chen was so miserable that she bought the Molten Star Grass at ten times the price. She was relieved. This Molten Star Grass was really useless to her, and the two thousand
After all, tens of thousands was not a small amount, and she was a little reluctant to part with it.
"Hmph, I just think I feel sorry for you, a pariah. This kind of rubbish herbal medicine is yours."
Long Chen finally successfully bid for ten Molten Star Grasses at a high price of 20 million. Although he was a little distressed, Long Chen was relieved. Killing people and stealing goods is not a last resort and must not be done.
After this twists and turns, the subsequent bidding gradually became more popular, and the price began to rise.
Just after two rounds of bidding, a secret door in Long Chen's box was opened and a person walked in.
