At first, everyone only heard the first half of Bai Qingqing's sentence, "I'll play six."
This immediately caused a burst of laughter.
Everyone couldn't help but wonder, where did this little girl come from?
The price has already reached 40,000, and instead of increasing it, you're reducing it, and by such an outrageous amount.
That's... funny.
But then, when Bai Qingqing uttered the last four words, "high-grade spirit stones," those who had been mocking her suddenly felt as if they had been choked.
Everyone gaped, eyes wide, faces filled with disbelief.
Even though it's a low-grade spiritual weapon with one attribute slot, it's not worth six high-grade spirit stones, is it?
Whose wealthy family is this?
Everyone subconsciously looked towards the private room on the second floor.
Then, I froze.
It seems that the 40,000 low-grade spirit stones just now came from that private room, right?
In other words, even when no one else was bidding, their own people managed to raise the price by half.
Moreover, it wasn't 60,000 low-grade spirit stones, but six high-grade spirit stones.
Although in terms of circulating currency, 10,000 low-grade spirit stones are equal to one high-grade spirit stone.
But from a cultivation perspective, it's actually much more than that.
Because high-grade spirit stones have a chance of containing fragments of the laws of heaven.
Although the chances are small, there is still a chance.
If it were to be touched by a cultivator and absorbed into their own body, it would be an immense blessing.
More importantly, high-grade spirit stone veins are extremely rare.
There isn't a single one in the entire Southern Wilderness Continent.
Even in the Central Continent, only those ancient and established families have the chance to have one or two of them.
Moreover, it is said that the amount of high-grade spirit stones produced by the high-grade spirit stone vein each year is extremely small.
If someone were to shout on the street, "Low-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for high-grade spirit stones, at a ratio of 10,000 to 1," it would be a perfect opportunity.
It's so crowded it'll burst with people.
Let alone 10,000, there are plenty of people who would want to exchange 20,000 or 30,000.
Therefore, they are willing to call this kind of behavior...
A true tycoon.
Zhou Kai's gaze also suddenly fell on Bai Qingqing, and he almost went crazy.
What's wrong with this child?
Why are our own people raising prices for each other?
Could it be that after sleeping for fifteen years, not only did he fail to replenish his celestial soul, but he also lost his mind from the sleep?
Six high-grade spirit stones?
Do you think high-grade spirit stones are as common as cabbage?
Their Star Moon Sect has accumulated only a few thousand high-grade spirit stones over the years.
Moreover, these high-grade spirit stones are very useful; how can they be used as currency to buy things?
Bai Qingqing then realized that she seemed to have just called out the Second Elder's price.
This behavior seems like someone is eagerly trying to get scammed.
I bet people are laughing their heads off.
But so what if people laugh at me in order to spend spirit stones? It's not like I'll lose a piece of my flesh.
"I'll pay, I'll pay. I'll cover these six high-grade spirit stones," Bai Wuji said hurriedly.
It's just six high-grade spirit stones, isn't it? I already have plenty.
Anyway, he's accumulated dozens of them over the years.
He can afford to pay for just six.
My daughter's happiness is the most important thing.
It's fortunate that it was Bai Qingqing who called it; if it had been the other six, Bai Wuji would have already swung his whip.
“I don’t need Daddy’s help, I have my own.” Bai Qingqing immediately raised her little hand and said.
joke.
The pretexts you create yourself are becoming increasingly rare, and the system might suddenly malfunction and refuse to approve them.
How could we waste it?
Preventing someone from spending money is like killing their parents.
Even the original owner's biological father is not allowed.
"Qingqing, you've only just woken up. Where have you ever seen a high-grade spirit stone before?" Yuexi said gently. "Let your father pay for it. But don't do anything like that later..."
Before Yuexi could finish speaking, she froze.
To be precise, everyone in the private room was stunned.
Because Bai Qingqing had already placed six high-grade spirit stones on the table in front of her.
"Qing, Qingqing, where did you get these high-grade spirit stones?" Yuexi felt like she couldn't even speak properly.
Bai Qingqing was taken aback.
She was so focused on spending money that she forgot about this issue.
How could someone who has spent fifteen years in a cave since birth possibly possess high-grade spirit stones?
Bai Qingqing's mind was racing.
Oh right, that divine thought.
Thinking of this, Bai Qingqing fabricated, "Actually, for the past fifteen years, I have been living with an old man in black."
“I always thought I was an orphan until yesterday when he told me that I have parents and that they are waiting for me to come back.”
He said my soul had been restored and it was time for me to go back. Then I fell asleep, and when I woke up, I saw my father, mother and brother.
"These spirit stones are what he gave me," Bai Qingqing said, glancing furtively at the crowd.
This story isn't entirely made up; it's half true and half false. I'm almost convinced of it myself, so they probably won't doubt it either.
Sure enough, everyone believed it.
Yuexi hugged Bai Qingqing tightly, her eyes filled with tears, and choked out, "My Qingqing..."
"Since it was given to you by your senior, you should keep it safe." Bai Wuji's eyes also reddened as he rubbed Bai Qingqing's head and said.
“He gave me a lot, and said he would give me more after I spent it all.” Bai Qingqing hurriedly shook Bai Wuji’s arm and said coquettishly, “Father, don’t fight with me for it. This is a gift I want to give to Senior Sister Zhan Ling.”
Upon hearing this, Zhan Ling, who was standing to the side, was immediately moved to tears.
She knew that the Second Elder intended to bid for the Fiery Whip for her, but after Bai Qingqing made her bid, she assumed that her junior sister also liked it.
He then decided to give it to his junior sister.
But who knew that the junior sister spent six high-grade spirit stones to bid for it, only to receive it as a gift from her.
My junior sister is so kind.
“In that case, let Qingqing pay,” Yuexi said after thinking for a moment.
"Mother is so good." Bai Qingqing said, hugging Yuexi's neck and kissing Yuexi on the cheek.
"Naughty." Yuexi tapped Bai Qingqing's forehead, but laughed heartily.
At this moment, the auctioneer outside had already lowered his gavel and said, "The low-grade spiritual weapon, the Fiery Whip, has been won by customer number 001 for 6 high-grade spirit stones. Congratulations to customer number 001. Next up is the low-grade water-type Xuan-rank spiritual skill, Water Dance Silver Serpent, with a starting bid of 50,000 low-grade spirit stones."
Bai Qingqing pulled out the spirit stone ledger again, claiming it was a gift to give back to her third brother.
The Spirit Stone ledger shows a price of 80.
Bai Qingqing's eyes lit up. This one was good; it was ten times more than the previous one.
The closer to the end of the auction, the more expensive the items should become.
I must figure out the reasons why I should buy everything in this auction.
Hopefully, this auction will be successful and I can break the thousand mark.
The people outside started bidding: "Fifty-one thousand..."
Bai Qingqing pressed the button in front of her with a snap and shouted, "Eighty high-grade spirit stones."
At that moment, the entire room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Everyone was inwardly screaming: "Is this how you raise prices? Others add a thousand, and you just cap it? This brave soul, can't we be a little more discreet and give the poor a chance to survive?"
