Supreme Martial Artist - Chapter 1293
Chapter 1293 Everyone Compete!
Qian Wancai smiled and said that he didn’t know what the price of the gray wolf skin would be.
Gu Fang and Dong Wushuang glanced at each other, sparks bursting out, their fighting spirit high.
Seeing this, Zhou Yang pondered for a moment and said that he had something to do. After leaving for a while, he returned with a relaxed expression.
Soon, the auction was drawing to a close. The middle-aged auctioneer said that the next step was the final treasure. He didn’t want to make a fool of himself anymore and let everyone applaud to welcome Guild Leader Liu personally hosting the auction.
The squire and the rich man were stunned for a moment, then they reacted, and thunderous applause rang out in the hall.
Gu Fang smiled bitterly. Everyone said that Liu Ziyan was a Black Scorpion Beauty, but when they saw her, most people would rather be stung by her.
Liu Ziyan walked onto the stage. Everyone’s attention was focused on her. She moved along with her body without blinking an eye, afraid that she would disappear in the blink of an eye.
She didn’t have much to say. She announced that this item was a Graywolf Skin at the 3rd level of the Initial Martial Stage. The starting bid was 500 taels of silver, and each bid was no less than 100 taels.
Qian Wancai chuckled. Liu Ziyan had personally presided over the auction. This wolf skin was definitely an astronomical price. After he finished speaking, he even glanced at Gu Fang and Dong Wushuang. The two of them remained silent, but they secretly gritted their teeth as if they were willing to risk everything.
At this moment, Liu Ziyan added something below, causing Gu and Dong to sweat profusely.
She added that the wolf skin belonged to Qin Fei, which instantly aroused the enthusiasm of the wealthy gentry.
Qin Fei secretly laughed in his heart. This sentence Liu Ziyan added was very subtle. The price of wolf skin would definitely double.
Actually, he had already noticed that Gu and Dong were definitely here to flatter themselves with their wolf skins. Of course, he would not be polite to such a person. Why didn’t they want the filial silver? The silver was useless to him, but it was of great use to Trench Village.
Liu Ziyan pointed out that this wolf skin was for her, so she was reminding the gentry and rich men in the hall that whoever got the wolf skin was giving Qin Fei face. This was equivalent to using money to gain connections, depending on who bid higher.
This woman was very shrewd. She would get 3% of the commission from the auction. This was not a small amount. This was equivalent to taking advantage of his influence to fight for the greatest benefit for herself.
And there’s a deeper meaning, the squire and the rich saw it, Gu Fang and Dong Wushuang, the two big cities of Qiushui Town, were trying their best to curry favor with Qin Fei. This wolf skin was something they had to obtain, so the matter between them was very subtle. Everyone knew that they were not qualified to compete with the two of them, but they could secretly raise the price. This was equivalent to giving Qin Fei face, so it would be easier to talk when we met in the future.
Everyone was shrewd enough to know what to do.
Therefore, Gu and Dong’s cold sweat instantly rained down, and they hated Liu Ziyan to the extreme in their hearts. However, they did not dare to complain and could only swallow it into their stomachs.
The bidding started very quickly. The gentry and rich men in the hall shouted enthusiastically. In the blink of an eye, it was 30,000 taels. Everyone raised the price recklessly without any scruples. They thought that they would not have their own share in the end anyway, so they shouted even more happily.
However, everyone was mesmerized by Liu Ziyan’s words, but they never thought that after this matter, would someone who suffered the ultimate loss find trouble with them?
This was no longer under their consideration. They were only thinking about the pleasure in front of them.
A Chuwu 3-dan wolf skin was only worth a few thousand taels of silver on the market, but under the intentional push, it soared and couldn’t stop.
Gu Fang and Dong Wushuang’s hearts were dripping with blood, but their faces were still smiling. They firmly remembered that some of the people who raised the prices behind them would slowly cause trouble in the future, and the blood they spat out would definitely be recovered from them with a few slashes.
When it reached 40,000 taels, Gu Fang finally lost his composure and shouted 41,000 taels. He knew that if he didn’t shout it out, the bastards below would never end.
Sure enough, no one below shouted. Everyone knew very well that they were no longer allowed to participate in the game. When Gu Fang and Dong Wushuang didn’t say anything, they could still act recklessly. Once someone said something and you raised the price yourself, wouldn’t it be obvious that you wanted to fight them? Where did he get the qualifications?
Gu Fang bid, and Dong Wushuang couldn’t bear it anymore. The two of them were in the same private room. In front of Qin Fei, they had to bid more than each other with a smile on their faces. They never thought that this would happen, but now it really happened.
This was not an auction, but a struggle for face, a struggle to perform in front of Qin Fei, an opportunity that couldn’t be lost!
Therefore, when they heard the restaurant owner say that Qin Fei and Qian Wancai had come to the auction, they made up their minds on the way. No matter how much money they spent today, they had to compliment Qin Fei. If Bai Nu completely eliminated the bad impression he left on Qin Fei last night, he would not be able to sleep peacefully in the future.
Originally, the two of them had thought about what Qin Fei had taken a fancy to at the auction, so they did their best to auction it off. When they found out that Qin Fei was here to sell, they changed their minds. This was a better opportunity, and they couldn’t miss it!
Both of their voices were loud. The price soared from 40,000 to 50,000, and 50,000 to 70,000. One hundred taels of silver was a small sum, while the other was 1,000 to 2,000 taels of silver. Only then could they be considered rich and wealthy.
Qian Wancai did not participate. He smiled as he watched the two of them fight until their faces turned red. His heart blossomed with joy. For every thousand taels they added, he would get a hundred taels. This kind of good thing did not happen every day.
The squire and rich men below were numb at last, None of us are poor, They were definitely not the nouveau riche. They could take out tens of millions of silver coins, but they couldn’t even take out 60,000 to 70,000 silver coins. Many people were lamenting in their hearts. Look at the difference. Zhen Ba and the mayor were rich. In order to get a favor, they poured a lot of silver in without breathing.
When the price soared to 75,000 taels, Gu Fang finally fell silent. He calculated, With all his wealth, There were only 70,000 people who could make a move, No matter how much money he had, he wouldn’t be able to operate. No one cared about him. He had to have someone as a hitman to rob him. Therefore, he really couldn’t afford this price. He weighed it for a moment. If he couldn’t rob Dong Wushuang this time, he would be fine. He might as well spend some money to flatter Qin Fei. The effect was a bit worse. At least, he wouldn’t offend Qin Fei.
Thus, he stopped and stopped arguing with Dong Wushuang.
When Dong Wushuang saw that he stopped bidding, his eyes narrowed in laughter, revealing that he was the victor. He was still powerful. Gu Fang was the second in a thousand years, so he couldn’t compare to him at all.
Just as he was complacent, Zhou Yang suddenly spoke, adding 10,000 taels to the 75,000 taels.
The whole hall fell silent as soon as he finished shouting his price.
Dong Wushuang glared at Zhou Yang angrily, wishing he could kill this goatee. 85,000 taels? He couldn’t give this number. To be honest, the previous price was close to the limit. Fortunately, Gu Fang kept quiet first, otherwise he would lose.
He never imagined that the situation that he had thought he would win would be broken by this bastard Zhou Yang. How could this Kobold Master dare to fight him?
Zhou Yang smiled harmlessly. He said that he really wanted this skin. He needed it urgently. Mayor Dong, please don’t blame him for raising the price.
What else could Dong Wushuang say? Blame him? Wasn’t he dissatisfied with Qin Fei? This money ended up in Qin Fei’s pocket.
He glared fiercely at Zhou Yang and then remained silent, indicating that he would not chase after Zhou Yang anymore.
In the end, the wolf skin was slapped by Zhou Yang. Zhou Yang’s butt jerked as he ran to hand over the money in one hand and the goods in the other. He left and secretly glanced at Qin Fei. Seeing Qin Fei’s kind expression, he even smiled at himself. He immediately felt that the money was worth it.
Dong Wushuang was sulking at the side. Gu Fang had already figured it out, so he moved closer to Mangzi Three and chatted non-stop.
Very quickly, Liu Ziyan and Zhou Yang arrived together. Zhou Yang was holding the gray wolf skin in his hand, looking as if he was cherishing it. He was afraid that it would get dirty on the ground. He was truly afraid. This was more than 80,000 taels of silver. How could he not cherish it?
Liu Ziyan held a sandalwood box in her hand and walked in with a light smile. Behind her were two servants, each holding a slightly inferior box.
The people at the bottom of the hall had already dispersed one after another, and the important people in the private room had gathered together at this moment.
Liu Ziyan handed the box to Qin Fei with both hands. He said that these were all silver in gray wolf skin. There was a total of 85,000 taels. The auction would draw 3% according to the rules. The rest were in the box. Qin Fei, please take a closer look.
