"First of all, thank you all for coming to our Spiritual Medicine Auction House. This is not your first time here, and I believe you are familiar with the rules of our auction house, which is that the highest bidder wins.
"Okay, enough rambling. Today we have eighteen items up for auction, each one a masterpiece. Let's start the auction now," the stunning woman said with a professional smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, one of the eighteen people slowly walked onto the stage and opened the box he was holding in both hands, allowing everyone to see what was inside the box.
"This is a thousand-year-old ginseng, estimated to be more than 1,200 years old. Because it is the first item to be auctioned, the threshold will be lower, and the starting price will be 500,000." said the beautiful woman.
Everyone below looked at each other. Ginseng was no longer a rare commodity nowadays. Even for a thousand-year-old ginseng, 500,000 was not a high price, but it was not low either. Moreover, things would get better and better in the future, so there was really no need to fight for it.
Qin Tian just watched quietly. To him, this ginseng was of no value to him.
"Five hundred thousand." Someone in the audience shouted with a sign.
"Five hundred thousand for the first time, five hundred thousand for the second time, and five hundred thousand for the third time. Deal." The stunning woman dropped the hammer and breathed a sigh of relief. Although the price of the first item was not ideal, it was within expectations. It was considered good that it did not fail to sell.
After that, the auction started again, and all of them were Ganoderma lucidum, Polygonum multiflorum and the like. After nine items were auctioned, the only one that looked decent was the purple Ganoderma lucidum.
At this time, the people in the audience were getting impatient. "These are just things, are you still going to auction them? If you don't bring the good stuff, I won't accompany you anymore."
The stunning woman smiled slightly, "Don't be impatient, sir. The first one is just a warm-up. The remaining nine pieces will not disappoint you."
Another exquisite little box was opened, and a blade of grass lay quietly inside. Ling Yuanliang looked at Qin Tian in surprise and said in a low voice, "Sir, isn't this the blade of grass you dug from that weird old man the other day?"
Qin Tian nodded slightly. He really didn't expect that there were nine kinds of Xuan Zi Ling Cao in this auction house. It seemed that there was hope for the Fu Ling Pill to be made.
"This magical herb was obtained by chance. It appears green in the shade, but if placed in the sun, it will turn purple, so we named it the Phantom Purple Magical Herb. As for its efficacy, it is still unknown, but it contains spiritual energy and the starting price is one million." The beautiful woman explained.
Two million!
A herb with unknown efficacy costs two million.
"Two million just to see the color change? It would be better to buy a chameleon!" a young man muttered.
The scene was silent for a moment, and everyone was unsure. After all, they didn't know the efficacy of this grass, and many of them came for the top-notch fairy grass, and were not willing to spend money on an unknown grass.
"Two million." Qin Tian said lightly.
The stunning woman glanced at Qin Tian, then said softly, "Two million for the first time, two million for the second time... two million for the third time! Deal."
Qin Tian was a little surprised that they had obtained the Xuan Zi Ling Cao so easily. It seemed that these people did not understand the effect of the Xuan Zi Ling Cao.
At this moment, Tan Tai Tianlong coughed slightly and breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally adjusted his breathing. Just now when Qin Tian patted the purple spiritual grass, Tan Tai Tianlong actually wanted to open his mouth, but unfortunately his breathing was not smooth at that time.
Tantai Tianlong glanced back at Qin Tian, sneered, and a hint of malice flashed in his eyes, "Congratulations!"
Qin Tian just smiled. He never took the anger of an ant seriously.
"Now we move on to the next item. When you open the box, there is a strange flower inside. It is bright red in color and has no leaves. It contains a special power that can make people fall asleep in their dreams and see their past, present and future lives. We call it the red spider lily. The starting price is 10 million!" said the beautiful woman.
For a moment, the entire auction house was in an uproar. If this flower really had such an effect, it would be a great treasure! Past and present lives didn't matter; the future was what mattered. The most precious thing about this flower was that it could give people a glimpse into the future.
"Is it really that magical?" Ling Qingyun seemed to be talking to herself and asking Qin Tian.
Qin Tian smiled slightly. This flower was indeed tainted with some of the reincarnation of the underworld, but what could it do even if it could see the future?
"The laws of nature are unpredictable. The present is changing all the time, not to mention the vague and absurd future." Qin Tian said lightly.
Perhaps, when we see the future, everything will be different. The reason why life is wonderful is that the future is unknown. If everything is clear in our minds, wouldn’t it be extremely boring?
Ling Qingyun nodded as if she understood.
"Twelve million!"
"Thirteen million!"
Qin Tian said calmly, "Eighteen million."
After hearing Qin Tian's words, there was silence for a moment. Ling Qingyun looked at Qin Tian with some confusion, but did not say anything.
Tan Tai Tian Long, who was sitting in the front row, smiled grimly, "Twenty million!"
Everyone was shocked. Although this flower was magical, 20 million was not worth it.
"Twenty-five million." Qin Tian said lightly.
Tan Tai Tianlong was stunned by this. He didn't bring much money this time. This was only the eleventh item, and it was far from the finale.
"Don't pretend to be rich if you don't have money! Alas, young people nowadays!" Qin Tian murmured casually as if unintentionally.
"Thirty million!" Tan Tai Tianlong shouted angrily. How could he, the eldest son of the Tan Tai family, allow this loser who was nothing to insult him?
Qin Tian smiled playfully and said nothing more. Seeing that Qin Tian had stopped bidding, the beautiful woman on the stage said, "30 million for the first time, 30 million for the second time, 30 million for the third time. Deal!"
The moment the hammer fell, Tan Tai Tianlong already regretted it, but it was too late.
Tantai Tianlong glanced at Qin Tian and said, "What a good trick! Let's wait and see!"
Smelling the intimacy between the two, Ling Yuanliang couldn't help but feel a little worried. Ling Qingyun also looked at Qin Tian with considerable concern, as she knew the strength of the Tantai family.
The auction continued. Qin Tian took possession of three of the remaining six items, all of which were medicinal herbs for refining the Fuling Pill. The three herbs cost a total of 16 million.
Two of the remaining three items fell into the hands of Tan Tai Tianlong. These two items were indeed what Tan Tai Tianlong needed, and Qin Tian naturally held them tightly. These two elixirs cost Tan Tai Tianlong a full 80 million.
The heartbroken Tan Tai Tianlong felt his teeth itching, and his resentment towards Qin Tian reached a new level.
"Next is the last item we will auction today. Would you like to take a break and get ready?" The beautiful woman said with a smile.
It seems that she is very satisfied with the proceeds from today's auction, which is much higher than expected.
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other and agreed to take a short break.
Tantai Tianlong turned his head back to look at Ling Yuanliang and said, "Grandpa Ling, today's auction was quite exciting, wasn't it? How come you didn't win anything?"
