Chapter 166 Sold at a Sky-High Price
After the violent oil is diluted, it reaches a level that a human body can bear. After entering the human body, it will cleanse everything in the body to a certain extent, including the swordsman's fighting spirit and the magician's magic power.
Moreover, after a long period of washing with this violent oil, the fighting spirit or magic power in the human body will undergo a great degree of qualitative change, which makes the power of fighting spirit or magic power increase exponentially, and the specific value is simply unimaginable.
It's just a pity that although everyone knows that the source of this violent oil is deep underground, no one has been able to accurately find its location and extract it so far, so that a large jar of violent oil like this has been seen for decades or even hundreds of years.
"Okay, no more nonsense. Let's start the auction directly! This bottle of violent oil, the starting price is one gold coin, and each increase is not less than one gold coin. Okay, let's start!" After Harold finished speaking, the scene calmed down for a while. Originally a very simple thing made the people who were preparing to bid below not know how to bid.
"Two... two gold coins?" After a while, someone tentatively bid, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was instantly drowned out by other bids.
"Ten gold coins!"
"Ten gold coins are you so bold? Five hundred gold coins!" It increased fifty times in an instant.
"Fifty thousand gold coins!" The bid increased a hundred times again, but this number was still far from the true value of the dark heavy oil.
"One hundred thousand gold coins."
"Two hundred thousand gold coins."
...
"Two million gold coins..." There was a lot of noise below, but they were all small fights. At this time, the wealthy nobles in the boxes finally started to bid, and they bid two million gold coins at a time.
"Is two million gold coins worthy of the four words "Rage Oil"? Just for these four words, I will give five million gold coins!"
It's five million! Now everyone in the hall below is silent. This price is no longer something they can touch.
"The gentleman in Box 3 bid five million gold coins. Is there anyone else who wants to continue?"
"Five million? That's too far. Let's get straight to the point. Don't waste time. Ten million gold coins!" A strong voice came from Box 2.
"His Majesty the King of Qinghu is indeed still strong and powerful. The Qinghu Empire is indeed rich and powerful. He shouted out ten million gold coins without even frowning. But this violent oil can't be obtained with just ten million. Our Ziyuan family bids fifteen million!" Box 3 suddenly spoke.
"Ziyuan family!" Louis was stunned. He felt that the name of this family was familiar. Then he remembered that it was the family of a female slave he had taken in before, Ruolin. However, he didn't know what the civil strife in their Northern Jia Empire was like at the moment. The goblins who were sent out to collect information had long lost contact, and the information network laid out by Mei Ni seemed to be unable to enter the Northern Jia Empire, so Louis knew almost nothing about the situation in the Northern Jia Empire.
"As expected of an ancient family." King Qinghu laughed, "This is far from the bottom line of my Qinghu royal family, 1,700 gold coins!"
"1,800 gold coins!" The Ziyuan family continued to bid, and at this time other big families could not wait and began to join the bidding competition.
"23 million gold coins!" Soon, the price soared all the way and reached an astronomical figure. Such a figure would be a huge loss for any big family with top power. So at this moment, they all prefer the trading mode of gold coins plus treasures.
"20 million gold coins, plus the honorary elder token of the Qinghu Empire!" The royal family of the Qinghu Empire began to use a big move. In principle, the position of the honorary elder of the Qinghu Empire is more valuable than 20 million gold coins, because it not only represents the value of money, but also the improvement of status.
I don't know how many businessmen who have mountains of gold and silver are rich, but are looked down upon by a noble who can hardly afford to eat. What they lack is an opportunity to become powerful, and this is not enough just by relying on money.
So at this moment, the offer made by the Qinghu King stunned everyone at the scene.
"How can we bid for this? Honorary elder! His power is almost equal to that of an earl!" The people below exclaimed, and at the same time they were salivating over the honorary elder's token. Even the young man who was not very sensible sitting behind Louis had a look of desire at this moment.
"So... the Qinghu Empire royal family bid 20 million gold coins plus the honorary elder's token. Is there anyone else bidding?" Harold showed a smile on his face. This price was almost unexpected in his opinion. It was indeed an unexpected surprise that the dark heavy oil could be auctioned at such a price. I don't think anyone else would bid.
Thinking of this, Harold began to count down.
"20 million gold coins plus the honorary elder's token, the first time!"
"The second time!"
"No one wants to continue bidding?" Harold confirmed for the last time.
"What are you asking? Only the royal families of the Holy Flame Empire and the Northern California Empire can compete for this price. There's nothing for our families to compete for! Damn that traitorous bitch Ruolin. If it weren't for her obstruction, my Ziyuan family would have defeated the royal family of the Northern California Empire and become the new royal family!" In box number three, a person in charge of the Ziyuan family muttered with gritted teeth. At this moment, he could only watch as the dark heavy oil that could almost change a person's physique was bought away by the royal family of the Green Tiger Empire.
"Then the third time, it's done..." Harold was about to drop the hammer to announce the deal, but a dull voice suddenly came from the No. 1 box in the middle, "20 million gold coins, plus my three promises!"
"This... may I ask who is this sir? Forgive me for not being able to recognize your voice." Even the King of the Qinghu Empire can only stay in the No. 2 box, so how noble is the person in the No. 1 box? Harold didn't know, he only knew that he must not offend such a person.
"I am... Hewlett!"
"What!" As soon as the man in the No. 1 box finished speaking, many old people at the scene widened their eyes. The name Hewlett was definitely a name that everyone knew fifty years ago. He was the top master of the previous generation on the continent. Even Louis' grandfather Bart and other super masters with amazing talents could only bow down in front of Hewlett.
According to rumors, Hewlett had reached the peak of the ten-star great swordsman and had no hope of breaking through. He was ready to cross the gray sea to the opposite continent, but many people saw that he had just sailed into the gray sea and was swallowed by a huge beast. Unexpectedly, he appeared here again at this moment. But even so, people believed that Hewlett's strength was at most the peak of the ten-star great swordsman. Although the value of his three promises was not low, it was far less than the token of the honorary elder of the Qinghu Empire.
But the next moment, Hewlett suddenly said: "I have broken through the shackles and reached the realm of the one-star sword king!"
"What!" At this moment, the whole audience was really shocked. The one-star sword king could sweep the entire continent by himself, that is, his three promises could do almost anything!
"So... 20 million gold coins, plus the three promises of Lord Hewlett, is there anyone bidding?" Harold suppressed the shock in his heart and continued to shout to the bottom.
"The first time..."
"The second time..."
"The third time..."
"Wait a minute!" At this time, Louis suddenly stood up! He is also determined to get this dark heavy oil!
