Chapter 429 Feel Free to Challenge Me!
The bracelet of storage space is bid by Gao Ge but the transaction needs to be completed after the auction so as to avoid delaying the auction.
Generally, all the bidders can afford the payment after bidding the item at the black market.
Once someone cannot fulfill the payment, he will be recorded on list and not allowed to attend any auction from then on. No cultivators are willing to trade with him either.
It is a serious consequence.
“Next let’s look at the second auction item. It is a treasure weapon. Anyone who likes using broadsword can pay attention to it!”
No one around Gao Ge except Yue Xincheng uses a broadsword, but Yue Xincheng has got the broadsword taken out of the secret realm. In Gao Ge’s eyes, the broadsword is not simple, but only Yue Xincheng can unveil its mystery.
However, the broadsword to be auctioned off is no match for Yue Xincheng’s Slaying Dragon Broadsword in terms of intactness or feeling. Thus, the sword is not intriguing to him at all.
In the end, the broadsword is acquired by a cultivator sitting at the back with 15 spiritual jades.
The storage space of the Zhang Family is not bad but the following long sword is too bad.
A strong contrast is created in this way so that everyone will feel that what the Zhang Family offers is good stuff.
It is a small trick seen through by a lot of people, but they just laugh it off just like Gao Ge. No one takes it seriously.
In Gao Ge’s eyes, the third one and fourth one are not special either.
Yet, the fifth one is an ink slab.
The ink slab is made in special shape with a carved turtle on it. It appears black on the whole, which doesn’t manifest its material. At the first sight of the ink slab, Gao Ge has a feeling of primitive simplicity.
“It is good stuff!” Gao Ge sighs.
Shao Shuai asks in confusion, “Do you know about this?”
Gao Ge shakes his head, “No. Just by instinct.”
“But you are right. It is good stuff indeed. This is Turtle Ink Slab. Those cultivators who pursue Taoism through books or paintings can inject more magic to the books or the paintings with the help of it.” Shao Shuai says.
Gao Ge takes a tumble.
“But the starting price of Turtle Ink Slab won’t be high.”
“Why?” Gao Ge is confused.
“How many cultivators do you think pursue Taoism through books or paintings in the field of immortal cultivation?” Shao Shuai doesn’t explain directly but his question is good enough to make Gao Ge understand why.
“However, one of us is coming for the Turtle Ink Slab.” Shao Shuai says.
Gao Ge turns around subconsciously and then looks at Xuan Siyu.
Now Xuan Siyu is staring at the Turtle Ink Slab seriously.
“The reserve price is 50 spiritual jades!” The old man says loudly.
“I call 60 spiritual jades!” A fatty speaks.
“70 spiritual jades! Hey. I don’t know about this, but my father loves calligraphy. I can take this back and make him happy! If you are not interested in it, don’t compete with me!” A young man says smilingly.
“100 spiritual jades.” When the young man just finishes talking, Xuan Siyu speaks.
She doesn’t show any respect for him at all.
The young man looks to Xuan Siyu and says with a smile on his face, “Hey! A little girl is competing with me! I will give up on other things, but I do like the Turtle Ink Slab. Could you please let me have it?”
“Just bid your price or shut your mouth.” Xuan Siyu says impatiently.
The young man feels embarrassed and says through gritted teeth, “150 spiritual jades!”
The price even gives Gao Ge a surprise.
The storage space only fetches up to 100 spiritual jades.
Yet, now Gao Ge figures it out.
Those who can increase the price usually don’t need to bid for storage space.
Yet, those in need of storage space don’t have 100 spiritual jades.
Thus, Gao Ge takes the advantage.
Of course, someone would want to bid for the storage space and take it as a present, but Gao Ge offered a high price at one stroke, giving others no time to react.
Due to various factors, other cultivators failed to compete with Gao Ge.
“200 spiritual jades.” Xuan Siyu says with a frown.
Shao Shuai shakes his fan and says smilingly, “Miss Xuan, it is said that your family is not in a good condition! The 200 spiritual jades are the maximum you can offer, right?”
Xuan Siyu snorts and doesn’t respond to Shao Shuai.
“Alas, in my opinion, as long as your family can sell the collections, you will gain a big fortune.” Shao Shuai is putting forward ideas to Xuan Siyu.
“Shut up!” Xuan Siyu says sneeringly, “If you are bold enough, come to my family and tell my father and grandpa what you just said?”
Shao Shuai can’t help shivering as if going to the Xuan Family is an awful thing for him.
“Just because your family is not in a good condition, I want to give you some advice! If you are not pleased, just ignore what I said.”
The young man is also hesitant.
Spending 200 spiritual jades for a Turtle Ink Slab is too exaggerated.
An old man with goatee sitting next to him whispers to the young man, which gives him a surprise. Then he hastens to raise his hand, “230 spiritual jades!”
“Hum?” Gao Ge asks Shao Shuai next to him, “Mr. Shao, is there any secret about the Turtle Ink Slab that we don’t know?”
“Don’t ask me about it. You should ask Miss Xuan.” Shao Shuai shakes his fan and asks, “I have a feeling that the Turtle Ink Slab is not as simple as I know. Otherwise, in terms of Miss Xuan’s character, she will not come to the black market specially.”
Miss Xuan doesn’t raise the auction board. Biting her lips, she is at a loss.
In her eyes, it is a simple thing to get the Turtle Ink Slab at the price of 200 spiritual jades.
Surprisingly, someone is competing against her.
If she discloses her identity, maybe the young man will drop out. However, it is not aligned with the rules. The Xuan Family cannot do it.
Apart from that, if this thing leaks out, it will bring trouble for the Xuan Family.
Otherwise, she doesn’t need to wear a mask.
“What? Miss Xuan, do you need to borrow some from me? Haha, I won’t ask for too much. Just give me a painting. Whatever painting is fine. Okay?” Shao Shuai says, “You know, the Shao Family has a lot of spiritual jades.”
“Shut up! I will not sell my painting to you regardless!” Miss Xuan says.
“Then I cannot help you even if I would like to.” Shao Shuai is delighted.
Gao Ge looks at Miss Xuan in confusion.
Given her attitude, why did she exchange her painting for the heavy armor with Gao Ge?
She made a transaction with Gao Ge before.
Gao Ge thinks for a while and still fails to figure out why.
“230 spiritual jades now. Any more bids?”
“230 spiritual jades for the first time!”
“230 spiritual jades for the second time!”
“230 spiritual jades...”
When the old man is about to land the hammer, Gao Ge raises his board.
“300 spiritual jades. Feel free to challenge me.”
Gao Ge does have a lot of spiritual jades!
