C510 A Storm Is Coming



C510 A Storm Is Coming

0The storm is coming.    

    

Silence fell in an instant. The moment Ouyang Zi's voice faded, the stadium instantly quieted down. Everyone looked at the auction stage in silence. No one in the stadium made a bid.    

    

Looking at the people in the stadium who had no intention of bidding, Ouyang Zi was not worried at all, because he knew very well that the ones who could really bid for the Sheepskin Scroll were the experts from the various families and families in the private rooms.    

    

"It seems like the people below aren't stupid. They all know that this item isn't something they can get their hands on, so they didn't bid for it."    

    

Standing by the window, Suen Zhiming faintly smiled. Just like the many people sitting below, they were all waiting to see a good show of the major families bidding for the ___.    

    

Time passed bit by bit. Unknowingly, half a quarter of an hour had passed, and the stadium was still silent.    

    

"What? Could it be that everyone is not interested in the item? Since that's the case, then I'll announce the end of today's auction! "    

    

Ouyang Zi's gaze swept across the numerous private rooms, and with a smile on his face, he spoke unhurriedly.    

    

He wasn't worried that the Sheepskin Scroll would eventually be auctioned off, because he knew very well what the goals of the patriarchs of the major clans were.    

    

"Looks like everyone is waiting and watching!" An unfamiliar and familiar voice sounded out from one of the private rooms. It was the voice of the patriarch of Lee family, who was constantly bidding. "Since that's the case, I'll be a good man and open the door for everyone."    

    

"One hundred High Grade Essence Stones!"    

    

It would be fine if he did not bid. The moment he bid for the wool scroll, it instantly became the new price of the auction house.    

    

"Everyone wants this thing, let's see what happens. One hundred and fifty High Grade Essence Stones!" Chen Hsingloong's deep voice came from the private room, his tone was filled with determination to obtain the Treasure Map.    

    

"Brother Chen, when is the time to play like this?" A hearty voice sounded once again from the stadium, "300 High Grade Essence Stone."    

    

"Hehe, our Chen family is poor, unlike your Murong family, which is rich enough to rival an entire country. Three hundred and fifty!"    

    

Chen Hsingloong coldly harrumphed and responded instantly. His bid didn't increase by a large margin, but it didn't show any signs of giving up.    

    

"Each and every one of you are rich enough to know how to pretend to be poor. Five hundred High Grade Essence Stones!"    

    

An ancient voice was heard. It was the Wang Family who rarely bid.    

    

The moment the Sheepskin Scroll bid appeared, the four big families appeared, instantly pushing the atmosphere in the auction hall to its climax. Everyone in the auction hall was guessing what kind of astronomical price the Treasure Map would be sold at in the end, and who would take it away by force.    

    

The same discussion was also heard in the private room where Ao Lingchen and the others were.    

    

"Do you think the wealth of these families is as much as a mountain? Look at their bids, it's as easy as drinking water."    

    

Suen Zhiming sat on the brocade chair by the window listlessly. He no longer had the mood to think about the financial resources of these big families in Imperial Capital.    

    

"Big families and major powers have accumulated for many years. It's normal for them to have such wealth. But now, I'm curious about which family will eventually bid for this Treasure Map, and how high the price will be."    

    

Ao Lingchen held the teacup, sipped the tea in the cup, and curiously looked out the window.    

    

"However, no matter which family won the Treasure Map, it doesn't mean that they will be able to successfully take it away. I'm afraid a bloody storm will be stirred up in Imperial Capital!"    

    

Ao Lingchen said coldly as he sipped the fragrant tea in the cup.    

    

He had participated in an auction once in Twilight City. He had witnessed the dark waves after the auction. He believed that Imperial Capital wouldn't be any better. After the auction ended, it wouldn't be peaceful.    

    

"There will definitely be a lot of people who will take advantage of the chaos."    

    

Suen Zhiming nodded in agreement. His thoughts were the same as Ao Lingchen's. It wasn't that they thought this world was too evil, but it was because of human nature.    

    

"I will sit on the mountain and watch the Fierce Tiger fight!"    

    

Ao Lingchen smiled faintly. Such a treasure would stir up a storm that was not something they could participate in. Thinking about it, they did not feel any pressure at all.    

    

While everyone was discussing amongst themselves, the Treasure Map had already bid a sky-high price. It was a sky-high price that stunned everyone. Eight hundred High Grade Essence Stones!    

    

The most shocking thing was that the one who bid such a sky-high price was actually the Lee family, the Wealthy Class family that had already won two grand finale items.    

    

Was the Lee family really that rich? This was what everyone in the auction house was thinking.    

    

Almost everyone was shocked by the generosity of the Lee family.    

    

However, if they knew what happened in the private room of the Lee family, they would definitely roll their eyes.    

    

"Big brother, where did we get eight hundred High Grade Essence Stones? We only brought five hundred of them with us."    

    

The fat man who was intimidated by his big brother looked at his big brother who was bidding with a serious expression.    

    

"Who told you that I want to bid for this thing? I'm just helping them raise the price."    

    

The patriarch of Lee family shot a look of disdain at his brother. He spoke as if it was a matter of course.    

    

In the face of his big brother's serious and natural attitude, the fatty deeply felt the shamelessness of his big brother.    

    

Discussions also broke out in the private rooms of the Chen family.    

    

"Big brother, do you think the Lee family really wants to compete for the Sheepskin Scroll, or is it deliberately raising the price? Should we let them bid for it, and then use other methods to obtain it?"    

    

Chen Yuanba looked at Chen Hsingloong, who was clenching his fist tightly, with a dark expression on his face, and spoke with a heavy tone.    

    

"No, we want to bid for it in the auction house."    

    

Chen Hsingloong's eyes were filled with a fierce light, and a clear cracking sound could be heard from his fist.    

    

He naturally knew what Chen Yuanba meant by using other methods, but Chen Hsingloong knew it very well. In the Imperial Capital, which was also the base camp of the four big families, no matter which family obtained the Treasure Map, there's a lot of chances to take it away.    

    

This was the reason why they had the confidence to establish the Imperial Capital.    

    

"Big brother is right. Everyone knows that there will be a rain of blood after the auction ends. But so what? As long as we have the upper hand... Take the Treasure Map first. No one in the Imperial Capital will be able to take it away from us. "    

    

A confident voice came out from Chen Hsingfeng's mouth. His eyes sparkled with a fierce light, as if he was ready to face the storm.    

    

"That's right, we must take it!" Chen Hsingloong pondered for a moment, then looked out the window, "I'll pay a thousand High Grade Essence Stones!"    

    

As soon as he opened his mouth, his domineering aura leaked out, and Chen Hsingloong shouted out a sky-high price that caused people to fall into madness.    

    

"1000 High Grade Essence Stone, 1000 High Grade Essence Stone. Anyone else who wants to bid?!"    

    

When he heard that sky-high price, Ouyang Zi roared excitedly. At this moment, it was very difficult to find a word to describe his feelings.    

    

The sky-high price was an unprecedented sky-high price. One thousand High Grade Essence Stone had already broken the auction record of the Myriad Treasure Auction, surpassing the original record of 900 High Grade Essence Stone.    

    

The Myriad Treasure Trading Company had a new record since its establishment in Tianfeng Kingdom. How could Ouyang Zi not be excited when the new record was in his hands?    

    

"Is there anyone else who wants to bid? This is the treasure left behind by King Moo, and it might be the fortune of an invincible king. This is not something that can be compared with wealth."    

    

Ouyang Zi's throat let out an overly excited and slightly trembling voice. He looked at all the private rooms, and his eyes were filled with anticipation.    

    

As an Auctioneer, his greatest glory was to bid an unprecedentedly high price in his own hands, so that this record would be recorded in the history of the auction hall.    

    

Ouyang Zi was currently doing this kind of thing. What he desired now was to have a higher record!    

    

What made him slightly disappointed was that in front of a thousand High Grade Essence Stones, even the other big families had chosen to give up and no longer participate in the bidding.    

    

In the end, the Treasure Map that was related to the Tomb of King Moo fell into the hands of the Chen family.    

    

However, everyone knew that the end of the auction was the beginning of a storm in the Imperial Capital.
