Rise of the Great Emperor Chapter 148: The Auction (4)

Chapter 148: The Auction (4)

Once more, Wenren Yu felt shivers and shook his head. He felt that the woman was bad news.
"101 gold coins!"
101 Gold coins?
Lin Yun looked at his brother with a sigh. He truly wondered whether his brother had learned anything from watching the people in the auction house just now. Increment of 1 gold coin would only irk these people when the item was already priced at quite a high price.
"110 gold coins!"
"116 gold coins!"
"130 gold coins!"
"140 gold coins!"
"150 gold coins!"
"167 gold coins!"
The price continued to increase as more and more people bid. But looking at the bidders, one would be able to see that these people were all only Body Training Stage Cultivators. Granted, for those at high rank, this herb didn't possess much value. They were only watching the warm up that was specifically prepared for those who didn't have much money but wished to participate in the auction.
"200 gold coins!"
The price increased and Lin Xiao arched his eyebrows.
"201 gold coins!"
This time, even Wenren Yu was speechless. He looked at Lin Xiao while wondering whether this man would want to bid the herbs or not. Can't he just increase the price by a great margin if he truly wanted the herb?
Why did he increase by 1?
Sure enough, some people already continued the bidding and the war didn't end so quickly.
"210 gold coins!"
"240 gold coins!"
"250 gold coins!"
"255 gold coins!"
The increment began to decrease as time passed. The original price for Dragonfly Grass in the market was around 250 gold coins to 300 gold coins depending on the quality of the grass. While they have faith that the quality of the grass in the auction house was good, not everyone was willing to throw so much money.
Many had already stopped bidding and only those who truly wanted the herb continued.
"260 gold coins!"
"265 gold coins!"
"270 gold coins!"
"271 gold coins!"
When Lin Xiao bid for the last, several people were looking in their direction, wondering where this idiot popped out from. But since the increment lately was only 5 gold coins, he didn't really attract that much attention.
Only some people who were sitting nearby looked at him in confusion since they had already heard him increased the price by 1 three times.
Sui Wenyan held the urge to strangle Lin Xiao. She felt a bit embarrassed because Lin Xiao only increased the price by one. Sometimes, the small increment sounded as if they were poor or they were so thrifty.
She disliked the thought.
However, Lin Xiao kept a straight face and just waited for more people to bid. However, the other people who were bidding paused for a moment. They turned to look at Lin Xiao before continue to bid.
"275 gold coins!"
"280 gold coins!"
"281 gold coins!"
Another one gold coin increment.
The two men who were fighting turned to look at Lin Xiao again, feeling perplexed. Usually, one would only increase by one when they were trying to make trouble with the one who bid. However, the two of them were certain that they didn't know who Lin Xiao was.
Little did they know that Lin Xiao actually wanted the Dragonfly Grass, but he didn't want to spend so much money just to buy it. Since that was the case, why not just increase it by one gold coin to save money?
The minimum increment for this item was one gold coin anyway.
For someone like Lin Xiao, who didn't know the rules of the auction house, his action seemed very normal for him. There was no need for him to worry so much about it since he was following the rules, right?
Little did he know that the three people near him were already itching to strangle him. After all, even Lin Yun knew that Lin Xiao's action was not normal in the eyes of so many people here. Unfortunately, they didn't want to create a scene, so they stayed quiet in their place.
"283 gold coins!"
"285 gold coins!"
"287 gold coins!"
"289 gold coins!"
"292 gold coins!"
"293 gold coins!"
"294 gold coins!"
"295 gold coins!"
"297 gold coins!"
"298 gold coins!"
"300 gold coins!"
"301 gold coins!"
By now, the price was already above the market price. The people who wanted to buy the herb must be really wanted the herb and not just buy it because they wanted to show off. Looking at the increment of one gold coin at the end, the two men looked at Lin Xiao once more, wondering whether they should continue or not.
The woman at the stage already felt her lips twitched when she heard the way the price was increased just now. They were only adding one gold coin or two after a while, which made it sound as if they were only counting.
This was the first time such low level treasure ended up taking so much of the auction's time. However, she also couldn't stop until there was someone who win.
"301 gold coins one time."
The two men looked at each other and then shook their head. The herb was overpriced already in their opinion. 300 gold coins was the maximum they could afford to buy the herb before they gave up and just give the chance to someone else.
"301 gold coins two times."
"301 gold coins three times."
"Congratulation to the man in the seat F-59. Now, we shall move to the next item."
Lin Xiao glanced to his seat only to realize that the woman found out where his seat was in just a glance. He was astonished. Did it mean that Foundation Establishment Cultivator has higher sense?
He was utterly curious.
"Brother…"
"Yes, Yun?"
"Why do you only add the price by one gold coin?" Lin Yun asked while his lips were twitching so hard. He felt like he was getting a very unreliable brother.
"Cuz it's the cheapest."
