Chapter 140: Third Grade Alchemist
However, what everyone was more curious about was Su Chen. Wubaotang was able to offer a quota of 100,000 for Su Chen, and even expelled Cheng Wei for Su Chen. This was really a shame.
However, they really couldn't see what Su Chen was capable of, worthy of Wubaotang doing this for him.
"Now I announce that because Cheng Wei raised the price just now when he did not have enough silver, which involved malicious bidding, the auction for the Fire Spirit Stone is invalid. The Fire Spirit Stone will be auctioned again, and the starting price is still five thousand taels." The old man announced road.
This time, there were very few people competing with Su Chen.
Because everyone already knows about Su Chen's financial resources, he can spend up to fifty thousand taels without blinking an eye, and he also has a terrifying amount of one hundred thousand taels. No one wants to mess with such a person. If competing with him offends him, who can bear it if he comes to participate in the auction later when there are items that he needs to bid for?
In this way, Su Chen easily bought the Fire Spirit Stone for fifteen thousand taels.
Next, the auction continues.
After several other items were sold, the third Purple Flame Pill appeared on the auction stage.
This time, Wang Lie was willing to fight for it. Unfortunately, there were many people who had the same idea as him, and they quickly pushed the third Purple Flame Pill to the high level of thirty-five thousand taels. It was higher than the transaction price of the second Purple Flame Pill.
At this time, Wang Lie began to regret. It would have been better if he had listened to Jiang Shan earlier. Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world. Wang Lie could only bite the bullet and compete with a few other people.
Soon, the price of the third Purple Flame Pill exceeded the 40,000 mark, and was finally bought by Wang Lie for 48,000 taels.
Wang Lie's heart was bleeding. Forty-eight thousand taels was twice as expensive as he expected. If I had known this, I should have bought the first one, but now I have to spend twice the price to buy it.
Moreover, this is just one piece. Wang Lie plans to buy two pieces today. Wang Lie's mouth turned bitter when he thought that the price of the next one might be higher than this one. This was a rhythm that would bankrupt the Wang family.
"Brother Wang, if the money is not enough, I still have some banknotes here. We must take the last Purple Flame Pill, so that we can completely dominate Qinghe City."
Jiang Shan took out his last pile of silver notes from his body. As soon as he saw Wang Lie's expression, he knew that he had to say something, otherwise Wang Lie might give up the bidding for the last Purple Flame Pill and lose his own Purple Flame Pill. The flame elixir is hanging.
Wang Lie took the silver note from Jiang Shan's hand, gritted his teeth and nodded: "Brother Jiang Shan, don't worry, the last Purple Flame Pill will also be ours."
the other side.
Su Chen watched Wang Lie buy the Purple Flame Pill at a high price, but there was an imperceptible smile in his eyes.
This Purple Flame Pill may not achieve the effect Wang Lie wants.
soon.
The auction of the last Purple Flame Pill began.
Everyone knows that the transaction price of this Purple Flame Pill will definitely exceed 50,000 taels, and there is almost no suspense about this.
Because there is only the last one left, if you miss it, you don’t know when this elixir will be available next time, so those who didn’t take the photo just now will definitely try their best to bid this time.
"Forty thousand taels!"
Sure enough, as soon as the starting price of 5,000 taels was reported, someone immediately called out a high price of 40,000 taels.
Anyway, it is 100% guaranteed to shoot at 40,000, so just start shooting at 40,000 to avoid wasting everyone’s time.
Bang bang bang!
Su Chen clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, very good, I like such cheerful people."
Gu Qianyin on the side couldn't help but smile under her veil. If someone gives you money, how can you not like it?
But many people who don't know the truth cast their unhappy eyes on Su Chen, thinking that the Purple Flame Pill is not yours, so why are you so proud of it? Is it great to have a quota of 100,000? Tsk, it’s not about paying back later, it depends on what you take to pay back.
"Forty-two thousand taels."
"Forty-three thousand taels."
"Forty-four thousand taels."
…
"Forty-eight thousand taels."
When it reached forty-eight thousand taels, everyone stopped in unison.
Because forty-eight thousand taels is a hurdle, and the last Purple Flame Pill was sold for forty-eight thousand taels. After passing this hurdle, even those strong men from Anyang City will be very tight in financial resources.
What's more, except for alchemists, who can casually take out tens of thousands of dollars from their personal pockets? It's all the money of their respective families. If they want to use it, they have to consider the amount.
"Fifty thousand taels."
Someone finally broke the silence, it was Wang Lie.
"Fifty-one thousand taels!"
Then another voice sounded.
As soon as Wang Lie heard this voice, he immediately turned his head and looked.
As a result, he discovered that the person bidding fifty-one thousand taels was actually Ye Wenlong, the head of the Ye family!
"Brother Ye, you didn't bid hard for the three Purple Flame Pills just now. Now there is only the last one left. Are you sure you want to compete with me at this time?"
Wang Lie's face looked a little ugly. Although the relationship between the Wang family and the Ye family had never been close, they had never been at odds with each other. Unexpectedly, Ye Wenlong would step in and stumble him at this time.
"Brother Wang, I really want this Purple Flame Pill. Besides, you have already taken one. Why bother competing with me for this one? How can your Wang family need so many Purple Flame Pills?"
Ye Wenlong retorted. He was in a similar situation to Wang Lie. He didn't bid hard at the beginning. When he realized that rare things are more valuable, there was only one left, so he could only bite the bullet and give it his all.
"Hmph!" Wang Lie's face turned completely gloomy, "In that case, let's fight!"
"Just fight." Ye Wenlong also gritted his teeth. He must get this Purple Flame Pill. The Ye family has lost the genius Ye Xuan. If a strong man at the eighth level of the Condensing Realm cannot be born immediately, what will happen with the Wang family? The gap will become wider and wider.
In this way, the competition for the last Purple Flame Pill became a stage for the heads of the two major families in Qinghe City.
"Fifty-two thousand taels!"
"Fifty-three thousand taels!"
"Fifty-four thousand taels!"
…
Wang Lie and Ye Wenlong were going back and forth, refusing to give in to each other, and the scene was full of tension.
"Fifty-nine thousand taels!"
"Sixty thousand!"
When Ye Wenlong shouted out the number of 60,000, his eyes turned red. Today he also worked hard to take a picture of this Purple Flame Pill at any cost.
Others at the scene were silent, sixty thousand, that's so exciting, that's a full sixty thousand taels of silver, everyone was shocked by this incredible sky-high price.
Now the two of them are in a state of fierce competition, and no one will give in to the other. They just don't know which one of them will end up with the Purple Flame Pill in their pocket.
"Sixty-five thousand taels."
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
Suddenly, the whole place became even quieter, and you could hear the drop of a needle.
Wang Lie and Ye Wenlong were also stunned at the same time.
Because the two of them did not open their mouths to raise the price, so who is the person raising the price?
The two of them turned to look in the direction of the sound, and then discovered that the person calling out the price was an old man dressed in linen.
What is striking is that the old man is wearing a shining third-grade alchemist badge on his chest.
And when everyone noticed this, the whole place exploded.
