Chapter 68: Grand Auction (Part 1) (First Update)
Another day has passed in the blink of an eye.
Yi Chi also forgot about yesterday's unpleasantness and was in high spirits as he walked out the door.
Of course, also comforted the autumn rain that was still sulking.
However, today is not a day to take her to an auction, after all, even if it's Yi Chi himself, he would be attending in a different guise.
What's more important is that his own father and several elders will also be going, he doesn't want them to recognize him.
......
After transforming back into Andy Lau's appearance, Yi Chi swaggered into Lishi Auction House.
She was led by the maid all the way to the eighth floor and into a VIP room specially prepared for her.
"Number 18, haha, much more dignified than last time!" Yi Chi let out a soft laugh as he looked at the number on the door.
Yi Chi knew that it wasn't because the price of his auctioned items was high, but mainly because of his fake alchemist identity and his ability to refine perfect-grade Ascension Powder. Otherwise, if it were ordinary Ascension Powder, even seventeen portions would only be worth a little over two million gold coins, not enough to qualify for entry into this Xuanzi VIP room.
After walking in and sitting down, Yi Chi waited.
......
As he downed his fourth cup of tea in the Easy Pool, the high platform right in front of the auction hall finally lit up.
"Oh, has it started?" Yi Chi Ruo looked over with interest.
As expected——
After the lights on the high platform lit up, a woman with a seductive appearance walked onto the high platform.
Even with Yi Chi's composure, he couldn't help but take a few more glances.
"What a fox spirit." After muttering to himself, Yi Chi stopped paying attention to her appearance. Of course, it wasn't that Yi Chi didn't like beautiful women, but rather, no matter how beautiful someone looked, it had nothing to do with him. Looking at them more wouldn't be of any use either, and he might as well go take a look at something else, such as the behavior of the men in the great hall.
Yi Chi even saw a certain pervert (river crab) sitting in the corner, one hand inserted between his legs, two eyes shining brightly as he stared at the seductive woman on stage. That hand was frantically moving up and down.
"Ugh, this is really disgusting." Yi Chi felt a chill run down his spine.
This is really something that anyone can have, even such a person will appear.
"Hello everyone, I'm the host of this auction, my name is Lixun Xun!" The charming woman said with a flirtatious glance downwards, and suddenly there was a burst of applause from below...
"Hehe." She covered her mouth and smiled, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes before disappearing instantly.
"Alright, welcome everyone to our auction house's once-in-a-decade large-scale auction event. Here, we hope that each of you can fully enjoy the following program."
After finishing speaking, Li Xunxun stepped down from the high platform.
Such actions made Yi Chi feel dizzy for a moment.
"Isn't it supposed to start?" Yi Chi wondered in doubt.
After walking for a long time, something even more astonishing happened to Yi Chi.
A team of women in revealing attire walked onto the stage.
"What's going on?" Yi Chi became curious.
Those women walked onto the high platform and then...
In room 18 of the Xuanzi package.
Yi Chi spat out a mouthful of tea in front of him.
"What's going on? Is this the legendary erotic dance?" He looked at the women dancing wildly on the high platform with a stunned expression, and at the people in the audience who were all eyes wide with wonder.
Yi Chi really couldn't think of it, there would be such a program at the auction, and before it started.
"Is it to relax people's tense mood, and then make the following auction more exciting?" Yi Chi calmly guessed.
But as for this situation, Yi Chi is really not surprised at all.
"No wonder they didn't let kids come and participate." Yi Chi couldn't help but think of the conversation he had with his father a few days ago about attending this auction.
At that time, Yi Chi just wanted his father to take him in, but after being rejected, he decided to participate with another identity.
Yi Chi still remembers his father's awkward expression at that time, thinking that he didn't want himself to see him looking at this kind of thing.
"What a disrespect to the elderly!" He cursed silently and turned to watch the legendary dance.
"Ah, ah, indeed not bad, oh, this one is good, eh, that one is also good!"
God, come and punish this hypocrite!
......
After that thrilling dance, Lishi walked back onto the stage again.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sure you've all been eagerly waiting. Now, the auction is officially starting!" As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xunxun stretched out his arms, and from below the stage, a chorus of wolf-like howls erupted.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the first item for auction." With a wave of his hand, he turned to face a beautifully crafted table beside him.
All of a sudden, a noble box appeared on the table.
Lixiang opened the box with her small hands, and after a burst of beautiful light, she saw an exquisite ring inside.
"The first item up for auction is this space ring." Li Xunxun picked up the ring and began to introduce it loudly.
......
Yi Chi looked at the auction below with some boredom, he didn't have any interest in buying anything.
"Oh, right! I also need to buy a gift for Qiuyu!" Yi Chi suddenly remembered this matter. Li Ma carefully looked at the auction and planned to buy something to give to Qiuyu. Of course, Qiyue wouldn't be left out either.
"As for the remaining items, just exchange them with energy points." Yi Chi thought and then turned his head to look at the auction.
......
One by one, the items were sold at exorbitant prices, and people's spirits were lifted to their highest point, excitedly watching each item appear on stage.
As if it already belonged to him.
After several rounds of auctions, Yi Chi also bought two necklaces with automatic defense functions, which solved the gifts for Qiu Yu and Qiu Xue. Next, he was looking to see if there were any other things worth bidding on again.
Everyone will ask, isn't he out of money?
He's got something to auction off, and once it's sold, he'll have the money. By then, he won't be worried about not having enough to pay the bill.
On the high platform, after the maid who had come up collected a treasured sword that had already been sold, Li Xun once again waved his hand.
"This time, it will be a medicine."
Only to see the sixteen small, exquisite boxes that appeared on the table, Li Xun opened one of them and said, "This is a high-grade yellow medicine, Ascension Powder. Everyone, don't think it's just ordinary Ascension Powder."
After a pause, he continued: "The sixteen portions here are all perfect-grade Ascension Powder."
After finishing speaking, those who didn't know the difference between perfection and mediocrity were confused for a moment. However, those who truly had status and power basically all knew what it meant to be of perfect grade.
Research value!
So, the big shots in those boxes all sat up straight, wanting to buy a copy to take back to their families and have their alchemists study it.
"And it's not just that." Lishi said with a hint of playfulness.
"After everyone's curiosity was piqued, she continued: 'After being appraised by Master Yidai and Master Gevan from our auction house, it has been confirmed that all sixteen pieces were fired in the same kiln.'"
Another burst of exclamation, of course, all in the private room, people outside couldn't hear at all.
However, those big shots couldn't sit still and all hoped that the auction would start soon so they could get their hands on it.
It's from the same kiln! This is indeed from the same kiln!
Excited, it can be said that he was crazy.
......
In room 1 of the local character building.
This time, Hana Notsuki, who was sent to investigate the local martial arts, also made up her mind and bought a dose of this perfect medicine.
"Don't worry, young master. This time we didn't find the owner of the earth-level Dou Qi. Our funds are still quite sufficient." An old man on the side seemed to have seen through his own young master's thoughts and hastily said.
"Well, that's good." Huā Nòng Yuè nodded and said with satisfaction.
......
In room 2 of the local character building.
The same thing happened to Zhan Zhuo as well.
For this perfect level of medicine, he is also a must-have, and if it can't be bought, it's even more necessary to use extreme measures at times.
Zhan Zhuo glanced at the old man sitting behind him with his eyes closed and suddenly felt more confident.
......
As for other families, who dares to compete with the War and Hua families? They all hope to wait until the two families have finished buying before making their own purchases.
To be honest, this time the auction house's auction only had people from the War and Hua families, none of the other eight super families came. It's not like they would care about an auction of this level anyway. If it were in their own city or a nearby city, some younger members might come to participate, but for a peripheral city like Fei Yu City, they can't be bothered to come. Only the War and Hua families thought to come looking for that Earth-level Dou Technique, otherwise, they wouldn't have come either.
Then, Zhan Lu and Hua Nong Yue both felt a wave of relief.
......
Yi Chi in No. 18 Xuanzi smiled and looked at Li Xunxun, he was very satisfied with her introduction.
"I'm sure it will sell for a good price this time, haha, I've made a profit." Yi Chi said with a light smile.
......
Under this eerie atmosphere, Lishi finally announced the start of the auction, and the starting price was 100,000 gold coins.
