The legend of otherworldly comprehension

In fact, although this kind of blood orchid is rare in Tianfeng Kingdom, it is not very precious. It is mainly grown in pots and placed for indoor decoration.

Because the aroma of blood orchid can arouse "certain" desires in men, it is usually a tool used by ladies to stimulate their husbands or seduces. Ye Haotian saw related books introducing blood orchid in the Ye family library.

However, blood orchids that are auctioned now are rare, mainly because the flowers are more showy than others and the fragrance is more intense.

"Boy, you must get this pot of flowers." Suddenly, Ding Ding's voice appeared in Ye Haotian's mind.

"What? Isn't this an ordinary flower? What's so special about it?" Ye Haotian sent a message to Ding Ding.

"Don't ask too many questions, you must get it, otherwise you will regret it." Ding Ding did not explain.

"Well, I don't have much money, I'm afraid I can't afford it." Ye Haotian was a little helpless.

"Stop talking nonsense, no matter what the means, just get it." Ding Ding was a little impatient.

"Then, let me give it a try. Can you tell me your reasons?" Ye Haotian was obviously a little curious and a little unwilling.

"I'll tell you when I get it. If I don't get it, there's no point in telling you." Ding Ding didn't compromise at all.

At this time, the old man surnamed Feng, the auctioneer, continued, "The base price of the blood orchid is fifty thousand gold coins. Each increase in price must not be less than five thousand gold coins. Now please bid!"

"Sixty thousand!" As soon as the old man surnamed Feng finished speaking, someone made an offer.

"Eighty thousand!"

"Eighty-five thousand!"

"Ninety thousand!"

...

Soon, the price of the blood orchid reached 100,000 gold coins. At this time, Ye Haotian looked at his father Ye Lingyu and said with a troubled expression, "Father, I,, I am very interested in the blood orchid, I don't know...

"

"Oh? Haotian, you mean you are very interested in blood orchids?" Ye Lingyu asked with a bit of surprise and a strange look on his face.

Shangguan Jinghong and Shangguan Sulan also turned their faces to look at Ye Haotian in surprise, but they were more out of curiosity, suspicion, and even a faint smile.

Shangguan Wan'er's eyes were full of disdain, and she looked at Xiao Cui next to Ye Haotian. At this time, she thought to herself, "It's really hard to change one's nature. Dogs can't change their eating shit."

Shangguan Wan'er had just started to look at Ye Haotian's performance in a different light, but her opinion of Ye Haotian has returned to the past. After all, the impression of Ye Haotian is deeply rooted, and it is difficult to improve just because of one aspect.

"Well, I can't explain it now, well, I'll talk about it later, let's buy it first." Ye Haotian also knew what everyone was thinking, but he couldn't explain it, so he could only say with a dark face.

"Oh, then just make the bid." Ye Lingyu knew that Ye Haotian had many secrets, so he didn't ask any questions.

"Thank you father."

"Twenty thousand!" Someone else made a quote.

"150,000!" Ye Haotian waited for a moment, then directly mentioned 150,000 for the first time, and immediately added 30,000.

"Hoo!!" Everyone in the hall exclaimed when they heard someone added 30,000 yuan.

Generally speaking, the market price of blood orchids is only between 60,000 and 80,000. Even if this one is more special than others, it is just special and has no other value. The price of 100,000 is already good, and now it is 120,000.

The gold coins were already high-end, so no one expected that someone actually quoted a price of 150,000 yuan, and increased the price by 30,000 yuan at a time.

As soon as Ye Haotian's quotation of 150,000 yuan came out, several other competitors did not continue to bid for the time being, and they were all calculating the gains and losses in their brains.

No one in the venue continues to increase prices for the time being.

"Someone has offered 150,000 yuan, is there any more..." A hint of surprise flashed in the auctioneer's eyes, and then he continued to speak in an inciting tone, "This is a rare treasure among blood orchids. It has not been seen in thousands of years.

Don’t miss it if you’re passing by.”

Still no one continued to raise the price, and the auctioneer was a little disappointed.

"First time at 150,000 yuan!" But I still have to say what I need to say, and I can't let the atmosphere of the auction cool down.

"One hundred and fifty thousand for the second time!" After a slight pause, he announced.

"One hundred and fifty-five thousand!" As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, someone else bid.

"Sixteen thousand!" Ye Haotian glanced at his father and saw that his eyes were very calm without any fluctuation. He thought that hundreds of thousands of gold coins should be nothing to the Ye family, so he made another offer without even thinking about it.

"One hundred and sixty thousand, it seems that this friend is very knowledgeable about goods. Is there anything higher...160,000 for the first time!" The auctioneer is very experienced and is very good at seizing opportunities to induce consumption.

"One hundred and sixty-five thousand!" The voice that raised the price just now sounded again.

"Two hundred thousand!" Ye Haotian didn't look at his father's expression this time and added fiercely, but he still didn't know what Dingding's plan was.

"boom!"

The hall was in an uproar again.

"What a prodigal, someone spends 200,000 gold coins on a single flower!" Some people sighed, while others were angry.

"Maybe some guy is planning to give it to his lover, haha!"

"Who knows, maybe the noble lady used it to seduce her lover!"

"Hahaha!!"

There was laughter in the hall!!

Ye Haotian was very embarrassed by the laughter in the hall, and his face turned very dark, while Shangguan Wan'er and Xiao Cui next to him couldn't help lowering their heads and snickering.

"This damn Blood Orchid!" Ye Lingyu mentally scolded Blood Orchid a thousand times.

Shangguan Jinghong's eyes were filled with more curiosity and questions.

Apparently he also noticed the changes in the expressions of the people around him. Ye Haotian sighed helplessly and could only continue to look grim.

"Two hundred thousand, very good. This friend is so discerning. Is there anyone who wants to increase the price?" The auctioneer on the stage was not affected by the crowd in the hall at all and continued his performance.

But the auctioneer's words made Ye Haotian even more embarrassed, especially the words "too discerning", which obviously made people think that Ye Haotian had other purposes.

"First time for two hundred thousand!"

Ye Haotian raised the price to 200,000 in one breath, causing everyone in the hall to burst into laughter. This seemed to have affected those who bid against Ye Haotian, and they stopped bidding again.

"Two hundred thousand for the second time!"

The auctioneer did not utter any provocative words this time. He seemed to be very satisfied with the price of 200,000 yuan. In fact, in the auctioneer's heart, 100,000 yuan may not be very satisfactory, but 150,000 yuan has exceeded expectations, and now it is 200,000 yuan.

One hundred thousand, that is very satisfying.

The person bidding against Ye Haotian also shook his head. One hundred and fifty thousand was already very high. Even the special blood orchid was far from worth two hundred thousand gold coins. He was already planning to give up.

"Two hundred thousand for the third time! Deal!"

Finally, the auctioneer made the final decision and fixed the price at 200,000 gold coins, which made Ye Haotian secretly relieved.

"Haotian, what is the use of selling this blood orchid at such a high price?"

At this time, the curiosity that had been suppressed for a long time finally made Shangguan Sulan couldn't help but ask. Others, including Xiao Cui, all turned their questioning eyes to Ye Haotian, hoping that Ye Haotian would give them a satisfactory answer.

explanation of.

Noticing everyone's curious and expectant looks, Ye Haotian knew that he would not be able to pass this level without giving everyone an explanation. He smiled bitterly in his heart and said helplessly.

"Uh, well, my teacher once mentioned blood orchid to me. He said, well, blood orchid is a very rare medicinal material, which is often needed for refining elixirs, uh, for refining medicines.

..The old man also said that if I meet him, I must get it and not miss it."

Ye Haotian really didn't know how to explain it, so he could only make up a reason in hopes of getting rid of the current embarrassing situation. When he mentioned elixirs, he realized that there might be no elixirs in this world, so he immediately changed his explanation to medicines.

Because he saw in the Ye Family Library that there are so-called pharmacists in this world. They can refine some magic potions, which are used to assist in the practice of magic or fighting spirit, or have healing effects.

When Ye Haotian talked about potions, everyone's eyes lit up, because potions are very precious things to cultivators and are very expensive, and the number of pharmacists who make potions is very rare. For ordinary people, let alone obtain potions.

Well, I have never even seen a potion.

"Oh? Haotian, is your teacher a pharmacist?" The person who asked was Shangguan Jinghong, who was obviously very interested in the fact that Ye Haotian had a teacher who might be a pharmacist.

"Oh, yes, I also learned a little bit about refining potions." Ye Haotian's face turned slightly red when he lied, but he soon regained his composure.

"Then what level of pharmacist is your teacher?" Shangguan Jinghong obviously really thought that Ye Haotian had an alchemist teacher.

"This, uh, the teacher didn't mention it before, but I think it's okay!" Ye Haotian could only continue to make up.

"Oh, can you introduce me to your teacher?" Shangguan Jinghong was a little attracted to Ye Haotian's teacher and wanted to make friends.

"The teacher didn't let me reveal anything about him because he was being hunted by his enemies and he was still recovering from his injuries."

"Oh, that's it, then forget it." Shangguan Jinghong's tone was full of regret.

At this time, there was a soft knock on the door of the private room. The waiter opened the door and an auction house staff walked in. This was a middle-aged man, followed by a beautiful etiquette lady, holding a pot of flowers in both hands.

It's the blood orchid photographed by Ye Haotian.

"Honorable Duke Ye, Sir Shangguan, this is the blood orchid you photographed, please inspect it." The middle-aged man said respectfully.

"Haotian, let's take a look." Ye Lingyu nodded and greeted Ye Haotian.

Ye Haotian turned around, and the etiquette lady immediately held the flowers in front of Ye Haotian. Ye Haotian then sent a message to Ding Ding and said, "Is there any problem?" He pretended to look carefully, staring closely at it.

Look at this pot of blood orchid carefully.

"It's no problem. I checked it out and finally got it. Go ahead and pay the bill." At this time, Ding Ding's voice came.

"Well, okay, no problem." Ye Haotian nodded pretendingly.
