NOVEL WEB “A million.” Soon there came another bidding.
It went from ten thousand directly to one million, yet no one was surprised, and they knew this was just a beginning, no one could predict how much the 10 elixirs would end up as.
“One and half million.”
“Three million.”
Now it became a game exclusively to the guests in the boxes on the second floor. People sitting in the hall could only be observers.
Murong Qingyan was overjoyed, she knew the guests sitting in the boxes were wealthy, but she had no idea they were that wealthy.
“Master, look at you all beaming.” Xiao Bai teased Murong Qingyan, “Those were some high prices I’m hearing.”
“Of course I’m beaming,” Murong Qingyan nodded, “I can practically picture us being filthy rich.”
Xiao Bai made a face at Murong Qingyan, “Master, why do you insist on selling the 10 elixirs in a package? Aren’t we going to get more money if we sell them separately?”
“Xiao Bai, you are so naive.” Murong Qingyan shook her head and went on to explain, “Human nature is funny, if we auction the elixirs separately, people would bide in a low price, because they can always count on getting the next elixir, we will end up getting less money.”
“All right, but we will get more money from the elixirs auctioned in the end, right?” Xiao Bai scratched its head and asked in confusion.
“I highly doubt that,” Murong Qingyan continued, “People would think it’s not worth the money if they offer more than the bidders who had got them with a lower price, they would naturally stop bidding once the price hit a certain amount.”
“What’s more, 10 elixir means 10 more cultivators of Foundation Level, no one could resist that, especially if they lose it, it only means their competitor will get 10 more cultivators of Foundation Level, that was a great threat.”
People had offered fifty million while Murong Qingyan explained this to Xiao Bai.
“Sixty million.” Nangong Tingli offered.
Nangong Tingli was determined to get all 10 elixirs, they were defeated by Murong Family in the competition and lost the title of the First Family, no way would he allow anyone else get the 10 elixirs.
His son NangongYe would enroll into the Four College soon, he would like to help his son to advance in cultivation.
The 10 elixirs would help them a great deal, but if anyone else get the elixirs, they would face a big threat.
To make it worse, he just saw Qiuyuan Lishang and Qiuyuan Yi, he found Qiuyuan Yi was cured and that was no good news to his family.
Qiuyuan Yi and his son NangongYe were equally talented, Qiuyuan Yi was only falling behind because of that strange fire he was suffering in the past.
What he could do now was to try his best to secure what he had now, he needed talents in his family, and the 10 elixirs was no doubt a shortcut.
“Sixty one million.” Murong Xiong offered.
Sitting in his box, Murong Xiong’s face was clouded, even though he was dying to get the elixirs, this price was almost the best he could afford.
