The venue was silent except for Boss Cheng on the stage who was shouting out the price and urging people to bid. The scene was once awkward.
In order to ease the deadlock, Boss Cheng asked the agents below to take action directly. Those agents originally only raised the price, but now they have to make the first bid. Otherwise, if the stalemate continues, the last item will be too shameless.
Tuo opened his mouth and called out the price: "One billion to thirty million!"
Boss Cheng on the stage immediately took over and said with an excited expression: "One billion and thirty million, finally a boss has taken action. Is there anyone who wants to bid? This is the only quasi-sacred cultural treasure in this auction. Everyone.
Distinguished guests, you must not miss it. If you miss this opportunity, you will not know when you will meet the quasi-sage treasure again in the future. Distinguished guests, please hurry up..."
"One billion and fifty million!"
"Okay, another customer has taken action, one billion and fifty million, is there anything higher..."
Under Boss Cheng's almost inciting shouting, some guests in the audience finally took action.
After all, it is a quasi-sacred cultural treasure. Even though it is a relatively unpopular musical instrument, it cannot satisfy some people's desire for a 'sacred instrument'.
However, there were only a few bidders, and most of them were Da Zhan's high-rollers. Some people helped raise the price for Da Zhan's sake, but they soon discovered that the price
It really couldn't be raised, because almost no one accepted the price, so after the price climbed by 1.1 billion, the price stopped again. Even Da Zhan's regular customers who wanted to help looked helpless.
"It's really hard to lift. I'm afraid if I shout again, the thing will fall directly into my hand next time." Some regular customers of the business were helpless when they saw this scene.
So there were only a few trustees left in the audience who were bidding against each other. Here you can get an increase of 10 million, and there I can get an increase of 10 million. In the end, they were the ones performing a one-man show, and the entire auditorium was filled with laughter.
The silence is like a ghost town, so eerie that it makes people break out in cold sweat.
"Hahaha... Wenbao Trading Company is definitely going to be embarrassed this time. With just a few people bidding, the scene is not as lively as the Demon King Beast Pill before. This grand finale is a complete failure!"
On the audience stage, Guan Feng and others were still watching the jokes in their seats.
The base price is one billion, a price they can't afford at all. Even though the Guan family is a wealthy family, Guan Feng doesn't dare to make a fool of himself.
Especially since the auction items are still so unpopular, even those who can afford to join in the auction are not interested.
Long Cheng and others also shook their heads. Their biggest interest now was to see how the trading company would end up.
In the box upstairs, Luo Lie had no interest in the auction from beginning to end. He came just to join in the fun. Ji Cangzhou, who was interested, saw that it was a harp, so he lost interest. As for the three elders of the Academy of Arts,
The price alone puts them off.
So after watching it for a while, everyone became disinterested.
"Let's go. The last item has been photographed like this, and there's nothing to see." Luo Lie saw that everyone was not interested, so he stood up, turned around and left, walking very neatly.
Ji Cangzhou nodded, agreed with Luo Lie's statement, and followed closely.
The three elders were also very disappointed with this last auction of the trading house. Before leaving, they kept shaking their heads and saying it was a pity.
Su Pingan smiled and left.
Judging from the current situation, he is probably the biggest winner in today's auction. He has taken the limelight, and the Dali Country has been cheated. The Gale Country has also suffered some hidden losses at his hands; the biggest winner in this auction is
The Demon King Beast Pill with human eyes was also made by him.
He really made all the money by himself, so it doesn't matter whether he watches the rest of the auction or not.
…
After leaving the auction venue, it was already afternoon, and everyone went directly back to the hotel. At dusk, Wen Liang, Long Cheng and others returned to the hotel one by one in surprise, and found Su Ping'an as soon as they came back.
Su Pingan also casually asked about the final auction result, but unexpectedly it attracted a fierce response from everyone.
Feng Shaoyang took the lead and said: "Ping An, you didn't know before you left. The last auction was really amazing!"
"..."
When Su Pingan heard this answer, he was stunned.
These guys don’t know that I also watched a little bit of the bidding scene of the final auction in the box upstairs, so they still want to deceive me?
But he was overthinking it. As soon as Feng Shaoyang finished speaking, Guan Feng couldn't help but said: "Tsk, tsk... I didn't expect that the people in Da Zhan State could be so shameless. We really looked down upon them."
They're gone!"
Even Long Cheng and Wen Liang looked speechless.
Su Pingan was really confused now.
Did something unexpected change after I left?
After asking around for a while, he finally understood.
It turns out that after Su Ping'an and the others left, and after another awkward period of bidding among several trustees at the auction, the firm may also know that the last item today was a mistake. If this continues, their firm will have to completely
They have become a laughing stock. So they no longer insist on auctioning things off. What they want now is to save the last face of the Chamber of Commerce.
So the Chamber of Commerce began to issue orders to let the few agents let go of bidding, in order to raise the price of the last item. Even if the item fell into their own hands in the end, the price could not be lower. This way of publicity to the outside world
When the time comes, the results will be much better.
Therefore, the subsequent auction scene became jaw-dropping.
The people who originally raised the price were all asking for an increase of 10 million to 10 million, but soon they suddenly started to act boldly. Here you call for 100 million, and there you immediately raise the price by 200 million. It seems that it is accurate.
How rare is the Holy Wenbao?
However, no matter how loudly they shouted, it was still the same few people who were bidding. After watching it for a long time, more and more people woke up and realized that this was completely shameless and the Chamber of Commerce had completely let themselves go.
And under the hard bidding of several agents from the Chamber of Commerce, the quasi-sacred cultural treasure finally reached an astonishing sky-high price of 2.3 billion, setting an unprecedented record and earning a lot of jokes.
"This Wenbao Chamber of Commerce is so shameless. I didn't expect them to even do such a thing..."
Feng Shaoyang and others despised this behavior.
Su Ping'an couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and said: "Although this kind of behavior is despicable, it is understandable. The Chamber of Commerce saw that the things could not be sold, and they still knew how to save some face. Regardless of whether people present believed it or not, anyway,
They will definitely not be polite when publicizing to the outside world. They will definitely vigorously promote the success of this auction, and they will definitely brag about the sky-high auction amount of 2.3 billion. But that harp may not be good in the future.
Now it appears in everyone's sight, otherwise the Chamber of Commerce itself will not be able to justify itself."
Long Cheng and others nodded in deep agreement.
The next day after the incident, everything was as Su Ping'an expected. The Chamber of Commerce spread the word about this auction, especially the last quasi-sacred treasure. They spent a lot of effort and hired people to publicize it everywhere.
The astronomical price of '2.3 billion' immediately caused a sensation in Tianqi City.
After all, only that group of people knew the entire process of the auction. The rest of the people did not know the truth about the final auction. After a bombardment of news from outside, the entire Tianqi City soon believed in the auction of Wenbao Trading Company.
Achieved unprecedented success.
This scene also allowed people in the Wen Academy to once again see the shamelessness of Wenbao Trading Company.
And in this atmosphere, the time was approaching November, and the opening day of the Four Kingdoms Competition finally arrived unknowingly. The people in Tianqi City quickly forgot about the auction, and everyone cheered with the most enthusiasm.
, full of emotions, joining in the anticipation of the Four Nations Competition.
Su Ping'an and everyone in the Literary Academy were ready to go, with high morale.
