"Oh, okay." An Ran nodded, no longer looking at the people who were entering the venue one after another, and followed the three appraisers to the private room upstairs.
The lounge is located in a corner on the third floor, with an area of about ten square meters. The floor is paved with purple glazed bricks, the walls are painted light yellow, and a sky-blue glass wall stands in the most conspicuous position. Through the glass wall, you can clearly see the situation in the entire auction venue. About one meter behind the glass wall, there is a crystal table, two chairs, and a sleeping couch placed in a very humane manner. Behind it is a soft leather armchair similar to a sofa.
Although the lounge is small, it has everything needed, which is exactly what Anran wants.
"Ahem, Miss Mu, this is the lounge prepared for you. If you need anything, please feel free to let me know." The three masters stepped aside to let An Ran in.
"Well, very good, I like it very much." An Ran nodded and said with satisfaction, but saw the three masters collectively breathe a sigh of relief.
An Ran sat in the comfortable and spacious sofa and pressed a button next to her marked with a sound pattern. In an instant, the sound from the auction house came clearly.
"Welcome everyone. Today is the day for our Baicheng Rock Auction House's auction. Thank you very much for your continued support. Now, today's auction officially begins!" Following the host's order, a deafening cheer rang out in the venue.
"The next item we are going to auction is..." The auctioneer was speaking hard, trying to make these seemingly ordinary things look very interesting.
An Ran sat there lazily. She had originally come here to buy the sound transmission jade pendant, but the auction house had already given it to him. Now she had almost nothing to do, so she just stayed here, waiting to see what price her pills would fetch, and to see if there were any other good things to buy...
Her dark eyes swept across the sky-blue transparent glass wall at the people in the auction hall. These people obviously couldn't see her, but she could see their expressions clearly.
An Ran noticed that most of those sitting in the audience were businessmen, mercenaries, warriors... and the truly powerful families, like her, had their own independent lounges, and the blue glass represented each space.
After looking at the people sitting in the hall, An Ran suddenly found a few familiar figures. Aren’t they Murong Jin, Nangong Liancheng, Shangguan Qingkong and Baili Mingzhe?
Naturally, they came to the auction because they wanted something. An Ran smiled and saw that the four of them had only just walked in slowly from the entrance. All four of them looked calm and composed, as if they had made up their minds to come for something.
An Ran also became a little curious. Something that could attract the attention of the people from the four major families should not be an ordinary item. Looking at the number of people participating in the auction, there were quite a lot of people, but few people raised their hands. It seemed that everyone was holding back their energy and waiting for something. An Ran suddenly became interested. It seemed that there would be something good at this auction.
"Please bring in our third auction item, the sixth-grade dragon beard grass." After the sponsor finished speaking, the audience suddenly quieted down, and a woman in a pink dress came out from the backstage holding a red lacquered brocade box.
In the audience, several young men in alchemist robes were slightly moved, their eyes fixed on the red lacquer brocade box.
The fourth-grade dragon beard grass, this auction item was of almost no value to An Ran. There were large tracts of herbs growing in the medicinal garden in the courtyard of Venerable Mo Shang. She could pick a handful of them whenever she wanted, so the expression on her face was a little uninterested.
Just because she wasn't interested didn't mean others weren't. Almost as soon as the host announced the low price of one thousand gold coins, someone raised their hand.
"One thousand five hundred gold coins." The young alchemist raised the wooden sign in his hand and said loudly, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.
"One thousand six hundred gold coins." An alchemist beside him gave him a provocative look and made an offer.
"Two thousand gold coins." A middle-aged man directly raised the price to two thousand, and there was a sound of gasps in the audience.
The value of the fourth-grade dragon beard grass is nothing more than refining the fourth-grade Longyang Pill. As the name suggests, this pill is used to supplement men's sexual abilities and is sought after by many playboys. There are also some old men who are obsessed with those things.
Once this kind of elixir is refined, it will naturally sell for a good price, and it is inevitable that people will compete for it.
"Two thousand five hundred gold coins." The young alchemist who bid first gritted his teeth and quoted a relatively high price.
"Two thousand five hundred gold coins, anyone else? Two thousand five hundred gold coins once, two thousand five hundred gold coins twice, two thousand five hundred gold coins three times. Okay, the third item, Dragon Beard Grass, belongs to the young alchemist. Congratulations on the successful purchase."
The third piece of dragon beard grass was finally sold for 2,500 gold coins, and then the auction for the fourth item began.
The fourth item was a sixth-order wood-type monster crystal. A sixth-order monster was equivalent to a ninth-order human, so when this crystal core appeared, there was a thunderclap in the field. Many people's eyes were filled with strong possessive desire. An Ran sensed it with her spiritual consciousness, and even the big families hidden behind the blue glass were vaguely tempted. It seemed that the second auction would be more exciting than the previous one.
Sure enough, as soon as the host announced the reserve price, a young man sitting in the front row opposite An Ran raised the wooden sign in his hand, "Two hundred and fifty thousand gold coins."
"Two hundred thousand gold coins."
"Three hundred and fifty thousand gold coins."
"Four hundred thousand."
"Four hundred and fifty thousand."
…
The price on the field continued to rise, from 200,000 gold coins to 450,000 gold coins, and the price was still rising.
"Seven hundred thousand gold coins." A young man in a fancy robe uttered a high price, and the scene suddenly became quiet.
"Seven hundred thousand gold coins, is there anyone still bidding? Seventy..."
"Eight hundred thousand gold coins..." Before the host on the stage finished speaking, a voice suddenly rang out from behind the blue glass.
Wow, there was an uproar at the scene. A big family actually participated in the auction.
"Eight hundred and fifty thousand." A deep voice came from behind another piece of glass.
"Eight hundred and seventy thousand."
"Nine hundred thousand."
…
In the end, the sixth-grade wood-type monster crystal core was auctioned off to one of the glass rooms for 900,000 yuan.
Fifteen items were auctioned off in a row. An Ran stared at the people in amazement. Were they all fools? Or had he never touched these things before and was simply too naive? How could they sell for such high prices?
"Haha, after the previous rounds of bidding, we are now entering the climax of tonight, the fourth-grade Spirit Gathering Pill." As the host finished speaking, there was a cheer in the venue. The atmosphere of the major families hidden behind the blue glass was obviously a bit heavier. An Ran sat lazily on the sofa, her little face calm.
