Chapter 1136: New rules of the auction (3)
“Yes, yes, one of you is willing to be hit and the other is willing to suffer!” The first elder laughed.
With the appearance of the bead, the participants of the auction were more expectant of the next items that were about to appear. However, although the items after the bead were precious, their practical value was not as good as the bead. Therefore, they were not enthusiastically sought after and were only auctioned off at normal prices.
The host had also expected that the items would not be very popular, so he did not introduce them too much. After the auction, he deliberately paused and said very seriously,””Everyone, the next item I’m going to auction has a starting price of one hundred high-grade crystals. Now, everyone can start the auction.”
Hearing the host’s words, everyone present was stunned. They were all a little puzzled. What did he mean? He didn’t even tell them what the item was and just let them bid for it? This was really too strange.
For a moment, no one spoke first. Seeing this, the host chuckled and said,””What’s wrong? No one dared to bid? Hehe! This is a new auction method implemented by our auction house. However, today is only a trial. As for whether you can get a good item, it will completely depend on your luck. The items on the stage may be precious items, or their value may not meet your expectations. In short, it will all depend on luck. How about it? Is there anyone who dares to be the first to eat the crab?”
No one responded to the host’s words, and the atmosphere became heavy.
In the VIP box, the Grand Elder looked at the silent auction hall and teased with a smile,””I say, old man ning, what the hell is your ning family doing? Won’t this way of patting scare everyone away?”
“You’re asking me, but who should I ask? I didn’t decide on this. ” Master ning said with wide eyes.
“Hehe! I wonder if this mysterious object can be auctioned off?” The great elder asked curiously.
The moment he finished speaking, Leng ruoxue started bidding.
“One hundred and fifty top grade crystals!” Leng ruoxue called out softly....
“Little girl, are you sure you want to buy it? There’s no need to give face to old man ning. ” First elder warned.
“Aren’t you guys curious about what that thing is?” Leng ruoxue asked with a smile.
“Even so, there’s no need to spend that money, right? If someone buys it, we’ll see it too!” The great elder said.
“But, I want to be the first one to eat the crab.” Leng ruoxue laughed. She did not believe that the ning family had no ulterior motive for making such a move.
After Leng ruoxue was the first to bid, others followed suit. Not long after, the price had risen to 500 high-grade crystal stones. However, after the price had risen to 500 high-grade crystal stones, there were very few people who were willing to bid. For a moment, everyone was in a wait-and-see state.
Leng ruoxue saw that no one else was following, so she raised the price to 600.
Seeing this, the host raised his little hammer and shouted,””Six hundred once!”
“Six hundred twice!”
“Six hundred …”
Just as the host was about to call for the third time, someone else suddenly made a bid.
“Seven hundred top grade crystals!”
The voice came from the VIP box.
The moment Leng ruoxue heard the voice, she knew it was ning Qi ‘er. She immediately raised the price to 800.
In another VIP box.
Ning Qi ‘er held the megaphone in her hand and was about to continue bidding, but she was stopped by ning Haoran.
“Qi ‘er, stop messing around. If the price is too high and you can’t take out the money, what will we do?” Ning Haoran said with a slight headache. He did not think that his willful sister’s action of raising the price was meaningful. Not only that, if ning Qi ‘er went too far, she might be punished by the family. Therefore, he could not let ning Qi’ er continue to cause trouble like this.
“But we can’t let that annoying woman get away with it.” Ning Qi ‘er said angrily. She was a lady from the direct line of descent of the ning family, yet she had been thrown out like trash just now. She was so angry. Unfortunately, she had no way to take revenge for herself. She was unwilling to accept this, so she could only add some trouble to Leng ruoxue. Hmph! Didn’t that woman want this thing? In that case, he would just have to pay a high price to get it.
Following which, she raised the bid to 900, while Leng ruoxue raised the bid to 1000 high-grade crystal stones.
In less than ten minutes, the mysterious item’s price had risen to ten thousand high-grade crystal stones. This price made everyone in the auction hall speechless.
And this was just the beginning. When the bid reached 10000 high-grade crystals, Leng ruoxue immediately added another 5000. Ning Qi ‘er was not to be outdone and followed suit by adding another 5000.
When the people present saw this scene, they all understood in their hearts. It seemed that the two people in the VIP box had a grudge! Otherwise, why would he raise the price for the other party like this! However, if they raised the price like this, they were afraid that both sides would suffer losses, and at that time, the ning family would benefit.
At the same time, some people were secretly guessing the identity of Leng ruoxue and ning Qi ‘er. However, they would never have thought that one of them was the young lady of the ning family and the other was the goddaughter of the ning family’s master.
Leng ruoxue and the rest were in the VIP box.
The first elder looked at Leng ruoxue worriedly and could not help but remind her,””Little girl, stop shouting. It’s already fifty thousand high-grade crystal stones. If this thing is trash, then it’ll be a huge loss.”
“I know what I’m doing,” Leng ruoxue smiled calmly, then asked master ning curiously,””Godfather, does the ning family need to pay for the things they bought at the auction?”
“Of course, the ning family doesn’t have any special privileges.” Master ning said with certainty.
“That’s good. ” Leng ruoxue chuckled and immediately raised the price to 100000 high-grade crystal stones.
Her bid not only shocked everyone at the auction, but even the emcee broke out in a cold sweat. The emcee couldn’t help but think in her heart,”this young lady is really too ruthless. I wonder who will win.”
“One hundred and fifty thousand top grade crystal stones!” Before the emcee could finish her thought, ning Qi ‘er’s voice rang out again.
“Two hundred thousand top grade crystals!” As soon as ning Qi ‘er made her bid, Leng ruoxue followed suit.
