Killing System, the Ultimate Killer

Chapter 227: The auction of martial arts skills shocked the audience

The auction was going on, and the atmosphere was getting more and more heated.

Seeing the people constantly competing for the goods, Lin Tian began to get anxious.

"Xunhuan, hurry up and bid, or there will be no more."

"Don't worry, what are you in a hurry for? We are auctioning Class C shops now, and we will just bid for a group of Class B shops later." Li Xunhuan said as steady as a rock.

He had no hope of competing for the 300 Class A central shops. Those top-level business houses were backed by big families and had long been eyeing the goods on the central street. He could not compete with them.

Therefore, his goal was a group of Class B shops.

These days, he had already inspected the Class B shops outside the central shop circle. Although they were not as good as the shops on the central street, the locations were all very good.

As long as they bid for a group of Class B shops, it would be enough for them to start their business in Hexi City.

"Now, auction the last group of Class C shops. The starting price is still 50,000 taels of silver." Chen Zhifu said loudly.

After becoming proficient, he felt that being an auctioneer was not difficult.

"Sixty thousand!"

"I'll offer seventy thousand!"

"Eighty thousand..."

"Thirteen hundred and five thousand for the third time, deal!" Prefect Chen knocked the hammer, making a crisp sound on the copper plate.

At this moment, Prefect Chen couldn't close his mouth with a smile. How much silver was this?

More than twenty million, Hexi City had so much money just after it was built, it can be said that it was rich as hell.

He didn't know how to spend so much money.

There are still seven hundred Class B shops and three hundred Class A shops. How much money would it cost if all of them were auctioned off.

Prefect Chen didn't dare to think about it!

"Okay, the next seven hundred Class B shops will be auctioned in five groups at a time, a total of one hundred and forty groups, everyone should hurry up."

"Let's not talk nonsense, the first group will start bidding, the starting price is eighty thousand taels of silver, and each time must not be less than one hundred taels!"

As Prefect Chen shouted out the starting price, the wealthy merchants who were determined to take over the Class B shops began to bid one after another.

"Eighty-one thousand taels!"

"Eighty-five thousand taels!"

"Ninety thousand!"

"Eleven thousand..."

"Fifteen thousand..."

Soon the price rose to one hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver.

"Fifteen-five thousand taels." Li Xunhuan raised his hand and shouted.

"Fifteen-seven thousand taels!" a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes shouted.

Li Xunhuan glanced at the other party. He knew the man. He was from the Wang family of Langya, one of the aristocratic families.

But he had no intention of giving in and continued to bid.

"Sixteen thousand taels of silver."

"Sixteen thousand two thousand taels." Wang Yaozu did not give up.

"Sixteen thousand five thousand taels!"

In the first group of Class B shops, only Li Xunhuan and Wang Yaozu were still competing.

"Seventeen thousand taels." Li Xunhuan decisively raised the price.

In his opinion, even if he spent two hundred thousand to buy those five shops, it was worth it. He believed in his own vision.

Thinking back to the time when he was willing to pay 300,000 taels for the distribution rights in order to buy Xifeng Lie and Green Ant Wine, that decision made him rich.

Moreover, the shops in Hexi City now have huge development potential and are very worth buying. How could Li Xunhuan give up?

Seeing Li Xunhuan's determination to win, Wang Yaozu did not continue to argue.

"170,000 taels, is there a higher price?"

"170,000 taels once!"

"170,000 taels twice!"

Prefect Chen paused to see if there was a higher bid.

It's better to make more money. After all, Sheng Huaian spent a lot of money to build Hexi City.

It takes a lot of money to build such a large city on this grassland.

In the past, shops like this were bought at low prices by various channels.

Hexi City was under pressure from Sheng Huaian, so others dared not act rashly.

Otherwise, even he, the prefect of Hexi Protectorate, could not withstand the pressure from all sides.

"Seventeen thousand taels three times, deal!" Prefect Chen knocked down the hammer.

Li Xunhuan was relieved and won five Class B shops steadily.

The second group was sold for seventeen thousand three taels, and the third group was sold for sixteen thousand five taels.

During this period, Li Xunhuan won another group of Class B shops with seventeen thousand two taels of silver.

Sheng Huaian was in the attic, watching the auction go on leisurely.

Xiao Chuyi stood aside, watching the auction below, and she didn't know what to say at this moment.

All she could say was that these wealthy merchants were really rich.

She looked at Sheng Huaian, what on earth was this man thinking?

He could even do something like a shop auction, and such a terrifying speed of making money made Xiao Chuyi extremely shocked.

Not to mention Sheng Huaian's wine shop, which had an income of nearly tens of millions of taels of silver every month.

If it weren't for such a terrifying income, he couldn't afford to support so many elite soldiers.

In the Hexi Army, the monthly payment of elixirs and military pay is higher than that of other armies.

Not to mention the large amount of meat for soldiers to eat and practice, raising hundreds of thousands of war horses is impossible without strong economic support.

As far as she knows, Sheng Huaian ordered the craftsmen to build tens of thousands of heavy armored cavalry.

Ten thousand heavy armored cavalry, she dare not imagine how powerful it is.

"Xiao Batian!" Sheng Huaian glanced at Xiao Chuyi.

"What do you want, General!" Xiao Chuyi responded.

"I heard that you are from the Xiao Palace?" Sheng Huaian said lightly.

Xiao Chuyi's heart tightened. Did Sheng Huaian know her identity?

"Yes, General!"

"King Xiao Wu is your grandfather!"

"Yes!"

Xiao Chuyi didn't know what Sheng Huaian was up to.

"King Xiao Wu guarded the Zhen Yao Pass and made great contributions. I think he must have hunted many monsters. I wonder if General Xiao can buy some monster meat for my Hexi Army." Sheng Huaian said.

Ordinary beef and mutton are not as valuable as monster meat, and the blood and essence they provide to warriors are not as good.

After the auction is over, he plans to start buying monster meat from Zhen Yao Pass.

"This!" Xiao Chuyi thought it was a big deal, or that her identity as a daughter was discovered by Sheng Huaian.

"Why, no, it's still difficult, or it can't be done?" Sheng Huaian looked at Xiao Chuyi.

Looking at Sheng Huaian's slightly dissatisfied eyes, Xiao Chuyi's heart tightened, and he quickly said:

"No, of course this is possible, but the price of monster meat will be very expensive, this!"

"It's OK, the price is negotiable." Sheng Huaian said with satisfaction.

Price? In his hands, silver and money are just a pile of silver lumps. If they are not used, they are worthless.

"Okay, I will write a letter to my grandfather to explain this matter." Xiao Chuyi said.

"Well, yes, General Batian still cares about our Hexi Army." Sheng Huaian smiled.

Xiao Chuyi curled her lips. If she dared to disagree, Sheng Huaian would definitely make trouble for her and send her out to guard the place.

"Now, start the auction of Class A shops!"

"The first group of Class A shops has five rooms, with a starting price of 100,000! Each time, it must not be less than 2,000 taels."

As soon as the voice of Chen Zhifu fell, someone couldn't wait to bid.

"110,000 taels of silver!"

One increase in price is 10,000 taels. Such wealth and power made many people feel pressured.

"115,000!"

"120,000!"

The competition began to become fierce, and the price increase was 5,000 taels and 10,000 taels.

Soon the price soared to 200,000.

"Two hundred and ten thousand!"

"Two hundred and fifteen thousand taels!"

Xiao Chuyi was puzzled when she saw the people below bidding frantically.

"They spend so much money to buy a shop, aren't they afraid of losing money?"

After hearing this, Sheng Huaian rolled his eyes at Xiao Chuyi.

"How can they lose money? These businessmen are smarter than anyone else."

"How is the house price in Luojing?"

Hearing Sheng Huaian's question, Xiao Chuyi replied: "Expensive, very expensive!"

Living in Luojing is not easy!

"Then are the house prices in Luojing so expensive from the beginning?" Sheng Huaian continued to ask.

"No!"

Xiao Chuyi shook her head.

"You mean, these people are interested in the future value of the shop!"

"Not stupid!"

Xiao Chuyi rolled her eyes and cursed in her heart: You are stupid!

With the prosperity of the Western Trade Road, the price of shops in Hexi City will inevitably rise in the future.

The price of Class A shops was quickly auctioned to 250,000.

The first group of Class A shops was auctioned at a price of 255,000 taels of silver.

The price of a shop is 50,000 taels of silver.

The Shen brothers spent more than one million taels of silver and won more than 20 Class A shops.

The bidding for Class A goods is more intense than that for Class B and Class C.

"Everyone, this is the last group of Class A shops. It is located at the intersection of the central street. If you miss it, you will miss it."

"Okay, I won't say more. The starting price is 150,000 taels of silver!"

Prefect Chen's hands were shaking at this moment.

How much silver did he earn today?

I'm afraid he has never seen it in his life.

"160,000 taels!"

"170,000!"

"180,000!"

......

In the end, a wealthy businessman won it at a high price of 360,000 taels of silver.

"The last finale auction item was auctioned by His Majesty King Shengwu." Prefect Chen said.

As soon as this was said, the 3,000 people in the venue fell silent instantly.

What would King Shengwu auction?

Then, a beautiful maid came out with a tray, on which was a wooden box.

"What is the object of the auction of His Majesty King Shengwu?!"

"Everyone, in this wooden box, there is a volume of martial arts skills." Prefect Chen paused.

This pause whetted people's appetite.

Skills?

King Shengwu is going to auction martial arts skills? !

"What level of martial arts skills is it? It's actually auctioned after the auction."

"This is a martial arts level skill that can be cultivated to the martial arts level. It was obtained by King Shengwu by chance."

As soon as Prefect Chen's words came out, the entire auction venue exploded in an instant.

"What?"

"Martial arts level martial arts skills?!"

"Martial arts level skills, auctioned?"

Countless people's eyes were about to pop out at this moment, and they stared at the wooden box in the maid's hand.
