Chapter 351: Shopkeeper Zhou of Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion
Glancing at the people in the audience, Ye Hualou smiled lightly and said, "Fellow Taoists, the bidding begins now. The starting price for this Foundation Establishment Pill is 800 spiritual stones."
"Eight hundred, so low."
"This is just the starting price."
"This Foundation Establishment Pill will definitely fetch a high price."
The starting price of eight hundred yuan was not high to be honest.
The cost price of a foundation-building pill is one thousand spiritual stones, and this does not include the cost of the alchemist's work.
Of course, the cost price is one thing. If you really sell it, a Foundation Establishment Pill will cost at least three thousand spiritual stones.
If it were at an auction, with so many people here, the price would definitely be higher.
There will be no unsold auctions for the Foundation Establishment Pill. It doesn't matter what the starting price is. Even if you order a spiritual stone, you will still be able to bid as much as you want.
"That's right, the lowest price is eight hundred spiritual stones. Fellow Taoists, please bid."
"I'll give you a thousand dollars."
As soon as Ye Coral finished speaking, a young man with Qi Refining Perfection made an offer.
At first glance, this young man looks like a second-generation immortal, someone with a small fortune.
His cultivation level has reached the Great Perfection, and it seems that he bought the Foundation Establishment Pill for himself.
"I'll give you eleven hundred yuan."
An octogenarian man spoke. This old man was also a monk who established the foundation of Dzogchen.
For an old man like this, there is basically no hope of building a foundation in this life, so most of the time he just buys foundation building pills for his juniors.
One thousand spiritual stones is not a small number. It can wipe out the life savings of a Foundation-Building Dzogchen monk, and can even wipe out the property of a small family for several generations.
This old man looked like he belonged to a small family. Otherwise, the Qi Refining monks would not have come forward to bid for the Foundation Establishment Pill.
"I'll pay you twelve hundred dollars."
Soon, a middle-aged monk made a bid.
The old man opened his mouth but didn't bid any more, probably because he had no money.
"I'll pay you a thousand and three."
The young immortal second generation continued to bid.
"One thousand and five."
At this time, a monk in the foundation-building realm spoke.
As soon as the foundation-building monk made a bid, those monks in the Qi Refining realm did not dare to speak.
Even the young second-generation immortal lowered his head and did not dare to bid again.
"One thousand six."
Foundation-building monks in the box began to participate in the bidding.
"One thousand and seven."
"One thousand and eighty."
"two thousand."
"Two thousand and five."
"I'll pay three thousand yuan..."
Next, is the home court of the foundation-building monks.
The price of that Foundation Establishment Pill was quickly raised to 3,000 spiritual stones.
The people bidding at this time are basically foundation-building monks.
Some were in private rooms and some were sitting in the venue.
Xu Changshou watched quietly while drinking tea and did not participate in the bidding.
There are three Foundation Establishment Pills in total. Xu Changshou plans to take one, but he will never take the first one.
This is the first auction item at the Wanbao Pavilion auction. If this auction item fetches a good price, it will be a good fortune.
Business people are more superstitious and pay more attention to the first auction item.
I don’t plan to pay for the Foundation Establishment Pill I’m taking, so there’s no need to take the first one.
"Three thousand and five."
"four thousand."
"Four thousand three hundred dollars."
"I'll give you five thousand spiritual stones."
Soon, the price of the Foundation Establishment Pill was raised to five thousand spiritual stones.
This price is already very high. At an ordinary auction, a Foundation Establishment Pill would only cost this price.
After placing five thousand spiritual stones, there were fewer bidders.
There are not many foundation-building monks who can come up with five thousand spiritual stones, and even fewer who can come up with five thousand spiritual stones and are willing to buy foundation-building pills for the younger generations of their families.
However, there were so many people here today that there were always some exceptions.
A middle-aged man hesitated and called out the price: "I'll pay, five thousand one hundred spiritual stones."
"Keke, I'll pay five thousand two."
A woman's voice sounded in the box.
"Five thousand and three." The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and called out the price again.
"Five thousand four."
The woman's voice sounded again.
The middle-aged man looked a little ugly, shook his head slightly, and stopped participating in the competition.
"I'll give you five thousand sixty-six dollars."
From a certain box, a strong voice sounded.
After the price was announced, the woman hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Five thousand seven."
At this time, only these two people were still bidding.
"Five thousand eight."
The powerful voice sounded again. For a long time after he made the bid, no one spoke again, and the woman also made no sound.
"The fellow Taoist in Box No. 48 bids 5,800. Is there a higher price? If not, this Foundation Establishment Pill will be in Box No. 48."
Ye Coral smiled and spoke.
She was quite satisfied with this price. She originally expected that it would be good if it could be auctioned for 5,000, but the result exceeded her expectations.
"Five thousand eighty times."
"Five thousand eighty-two times."
"Five thousand eighty-three..."
"etc."
In Box No. 3, a faint voice suddenly came: "I'm offering six thousand yuan."
Hearing this voice, Xu Changshou's heart moved slightly and asked: "Who is in box No. 3?"
The top ten private rooms in Wanbao Pavilion all have names. They are either related to Wanbao Pavilion or are prominent figures.
Xu Changshou came to the party, so it was normal for him to be given box number one. Li Linhao and others were given box number two because of his grandfather's relationship.
"Box No. 3 belongs to the Hehuan Sect. He is a big shot. He is the shopkeeper Zhou of Longfeng Pavilion, Zhou Heshuo." Wu Xin introduced with a smile.
"The shopkeeper of Longfeng Pavilion?"
Xu Changshou's eyelids twitched.
As the saying goes, competitors are enemies. Longfeng Pavilion and Wanbao Pavilion are competitors. Moreover, after the merger of Wanbao Pavilion and Danxia Pavilion, many customers of Longfeng Pavilion were taken away.
Zhou Heshuo came to the auction at this time. I'm afraid he has bad intentions.
Wu Xin continued to introduce: "This Zhou Heshuo's cultivation is in the late stage of foundation building. His cultivation is not top-notch, but he has a background. His father is a Jindan cultivator."
"Yes."
Xu Changshou nodded slightly and remembered Zhou Heshuo's identity information.
In the world of immortal cultivation, there is an unwritten rule that the direct descendants of Jindan cultivators are people who cannot be killed.
If there is a conflict, you can teach them a lesson, but you must never kill them.
Otherwise, the Jindan behind them will definitely take action against you personally.
"Such a familiar voice, it's Shopkeeper Zhou."
"Oh my god, Shopkeeper Zhou from Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion is here."
"Interesting, very interesting."
"This Shopkeeper Zhou is not easy to mess with."
In the crowd, many fearful eyes looked at Box No. 3.
After Zhou Heshuo made the bid, no one else bid.
Ye Shanhu frowned slightly. She thought that Shopkeeper Zhou might cause trouble, but she didn't expect that he would participate in the auction for the first auction item.
"Hehe, Fellow Daoist Ye, I bought this foundation-building pill for my beloved grandson, and I have no ill intentions." Zhou Heshuo reminded Ye Shanhu as if he knew what he was thinking.
"Yeah!"
Ye Shanhu nodded, "Fellow Daoist Zhou bid 6,000, is there a higher price?"
