Senior Brother, Stop It, You Are A Villain! - Chapter 73.1
Ye Chen chose the auction because he was confident that the Tongxuan Pearl in his hand would be able to fetch a price much higher than 500,000 spirit stones!
As for pawning the pearl, everyone knows that the price given is definitely not the price it should be. But if more people participate in the auction, then the price will be hard to estimate!
Although it hurt him a little to sell the Tongxuan Pearl, there was no other way. Although Ye Chen, as a son of fortune, has always been arrogant, he also knows that Linglong Pavilion is not easy to mess with. If he couldn’t afford the money to buy the incarnation, he might not be able to get out of the auction venue.
Ye Chen thought well and planned well. It’s just that when the auction started, he couldn’t sit still.
He only heard the girl in charge of the auction on the stage say, “This guest entrusted Linglong Pavilion to sell a Tongxuan Pearl, the estimated price is 500,000 spirit stones, and the starting price is 200,000 spirit stones…”
Ye Chen couldn’t help shouting, “Why is the starting price only 200,000 spirit stones? Why can’t it be 500,000 spirit stones?”
The girl in charge smiled very sweetly and explained, “This guest doesn’t know, but an auction is different from the general sale of items. Usually, the starting price of our auction items is lower than the estimated price. Just like the incarnation just now, our estimated price is 300,000 spirit stones, but the starting price is only 80,000 spirit stones. But the guest doesn’t have to worry, after the auction, the price can go up.”
Although the girl in charge made a lot of sense, Ye Chen just couldn’t swallow the breath in his heart, and at the same time, he had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, just after the girl in charge announced the starting price, a slightly immature voice came from heavenly room No.1, “I offer 200,000 spirit stones!”
After a pause, Lin Xiaoran added, “I am bound to get this thing!”
When everyone eager to try bidding heard it, they stopped immediately.
In terms of financial resources, they must be inferior to others. Anyway, no matter what price they bid, they can’t grab it, so don’t bother. Bidding against that person hastily may attract resentment, so why bother?
It’s better to sell a favor directly.
Although Lin Xiaoran is young, she is just a little less experienced.
In fact, she is far smarter than regular people.
In the process of bidding with Ye Chen just now, she found that no one dared to bid with her except Ye Chen.
She just thought a little and understood what was going on.
Therefore, the moment the bid for the Tongxuan Pearl started, she called out the price, and directly expressed the attitude that she must win.
As a result, no one bid against her.
Seeing that the whole place fell into silence and no one wanted to bid, Ye Chen was startled and angry, and couldn’t help shouting, “You guys are kidding me!”
The girl in charge was not angry either, and said with a smile, “Guest, you have to be responsible for what you say! Our Linglong Pavilion is a commercial business affiliated with Yunjian Pavilion. It is well-known in the industry, and all transactions are fair. As for the auction, it was originally a kind of gambling. If you gamble right, you will get rich overnight; if you gamble wrong, you will inevitably lose your wealth. Since you are willing to gamble, you have to be willing to admit defeat, right?”
Ye Chen was angry, and said coldly, “Nonsense! You valued my Tongxuan Pearl at 500,000, but now you want to sell it at 200,000. Everyone here can see you guys are cheating me! I request to cancel this auction!”
The smile on the girl’s face disappeared. She looked at Ye Chen calmly, and said lightly, “The guest said that he wants to revoke the auction commission Then have you thought about the consequences of doing so?”
“What are the consequences? At worst, I don’t want the incarnation just now, and let’s just pretend I haven’t been here!”
The girl sneered and said, “What does the guest think of our Linglong Pavilion? Since you bid for the auction, you should abide by our rules. Now if you want to give up, you can give up. Are you too disrespecting our Linglong Pavilion and not taking Yunjian Pavilion seriously?”
Before the words fell, many guards had already appeared around the venue.
These guards are at least in the realm of Gold Core, and several of them are even in the realm of Divine Transformation.
The guards stepped forward to surround Ye Chen, and one of them, who looked like the captain, said coldly, “Your excellency, have you thought about the consequences of provoking our Yunjian Pavilion?”
Looking at the people who gathered around him, Ye Chen felt cold sweat streaming down his forehead.
Having stayed in the Taiwei Sect for a long time, he always thought that cultivators in the Gold Core realm were rare, and cultivators in the Divine Transformation Realm were even rarer, but unexpectedly, in this small Linglong Pavilion, so many appeared all at once.
So many Gold Cores and Divine Transformations!
When did cultivators in the Gold Core and Divine Transformation become so worthless?
Ye Chen is very confident. He is confident that he can challenge those who are one realm higher than him and he is also confident that he can fight against multiple opponents in the same realm.
After a brief hesitation, Ye Chen made a difficult decision. He chose to give in.
He said embarrassingly, “I… I said something wrong just now, please don’t take it to heart…”
The girl in charge smiled and said, “Since the guest knows that he is wrong, then he must have no objection to the result of the auction just now, right?”
Ye Chen said with difficulty, “No…no…”
“In that case, I would like to announce here that this Tongxuan Pearl was obtained by the guest in heavenly room No. 1, congratulations to the guest!” the girl announced with a laugh.
At this moment, Ye Chen felt his heart was bleeding. What a precious treasure, he actually sold it at such a low price under his carelessness!
Ye Chen gritted his teeth, trying to control himself not to look at heavenly room No.1. He was afraid that the raging killing intent in his heart would be noticed by the other party.
But he has already vowed secretly in his heart that he must make Lin Xiaoran pay the price!
“Your Tongxuan Pearl has completed the auction.
After deducting 10% of the entrustment fee, you can get 180,000 spirit stones. One million spirit stones have been deducted with 180,000. What method do you want to use for the remaining 820,000?”
The girl in charge of the auction asked with a smile.
Ye Chen realized for the first time that this smile was so hateful.
