Pokémon: Hoenen Rage

Chapter 376: Acquiring a Heavy Treasure·Energy Crystal of the Grass Slate (35)

"Is there any guest willing to buy this precious crystal?"

After a long silence, the auctioneer Yayi asked again.

It is not unusual for a lot of this price to fail to sell. It happens many times in every auction, and she does not pay too much attention to it.

Seeing that no one in the audience raised a sign, she was ready to announce that the auction had been rejected.

In the VIP room, Lai watched coldly. If the auction failed, it would be the best thing for a privileged bidder like him.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. In the corner, a sign with the starting price was slowly raised.

The power of the heart swept over him, and he saw a wealthy businessman in his fifties. He looked quite smart and capable, but his health was not very good and he looked a little thin.

I think I bought it to wear on my body to regulate my body.Lai thought to himself.

"This guest bids 300 million alliance coins. Is there any other guest who is willing to bid?"

Seeing someone bidding, Yayi looked slightly happy and spoke with encouragement.

There was another long silence, and when the deal was about to be concluded, Lai gave his offer.

400 million alliance coins.

As soon as the previous wealthy businessmen saw the source of the quotation, they immediately gave up the idea of ​​bidding.

But immediately after, in just a few seconds, a sign with 500 million alliance coins was raised from another place under the field.

Sure enough, there was a fellow who picked up the leak, a middle-aged man with glasses and a gentle manner.

Two consecutive quotes seemed to kick off some kind of bidding.

600 million alliance coins.

800 million alliance coins.

1000 million alliance coins.

Soon, the bidding price reached 500 million alliance coins.

At this time, how could the experienced Yayi not know that this auction was the result of an appraisal by an appraiser? She secretly sighed at her good luck and started to instigate the bidding.

"The world is so big, so many capable people are born."

In VIP Room No. [-], Lai sighed.

Naqi had already walked to his side and held his hand.

"What good thing is it? Don't worry about the price, we still have a lot of savings."

"I'm not sure what it is. I can only confirm that it has something to do with the Grass Slate. Both the Tropical Dragon and the Lizard King must be able to use it."

"If you really need money, I also have a small treasury with last year's bonuses. There are more than 1000 million alliance coins!"

Ketna also walked up quickly to express her support.

"Don't worry so much, you can win it by tens of millions at most."

With that said, Lai pressed the button for quotation.

3000 million alliance coins.

······
This offer from VIP Room No. [-] quickly penetrated the psychological bottom line of many bidders and also showed the determination of the bidder above.

A dozen bidders quickly turned into four, including Lay.

The first person to compete with Lai hesitated for a moment and then marked the price of 200 million alliance coins.

4000 million alliance coins.

The price of VIP Room No. [-] has been updated again.

According to Lai's estimation, the actual price of this treasure is very likely to be priceless. Even if it encounters an emergency, it is not a crystal that can be used for a long time, but a pure aggregate of energy and laws, which is worth at least [-] million alliance coins. .

Once the price of 4000 million was announced, there was one less competitor.

Among the people on the field, no one gave up. Only Lai, the original competitor, and a trainer in his thirties were left.

At this moment, the trainer also hesitated and raised a sign worth 100 million.

5000 million alliance coins.

Lai's response was simple and crisp.

"beep"

As soon as the sound came out, the trainer in his thirties also gave up the game.

Fifty-five million alliance coins.

The original competitors are no longer retained, only one-on-one remains, which is the purest price game.

6000 million alliance coins.

Sixty-two million alliance coins.

Sixty-two million alliance coins.

When the price came here, the opponent obviously hesitated.

After hesitating for a long time, he directly quoted a high price of 7000 million alliance coins.

"He doesn't have many options left," Lai said firmly.

He can be sure that although these competitors are knowledgeable, they do not know the true value of this thing. Even if they do know, they do not have enough financial resources to compete.

Seventy-two million alliance coins.

Lai also began to calculate carefully, preparing to test the opponent's final price bottom line.

After much hesitation, the opponent raised his sign.

Seventy-two million alliance coins.

8000 million alliance coins.

Lai raised the price again without hesitation, and his decisive gesture let the opponent know that even if he tried his best, it would be of no avail.

"beep"

With a sigh, the middle-aged man with glasses also gave up the competition.

On the stage, Yayi's eyes were full of joy. She sold an item that was much higher than the estimated price. No matter the reason, as an auctioneer, she could get a high commission.

"Are there any guests willing to bid?"

In the audience, many bidders who had not participated from the beginning and had the right to bid began to discuss, but until the end, no one raised the sign again.

Someone who had noticed Murata Isada and Rai before had a sign with 9000 million alliance coins written on it in his hand. He hesitated but did not raise it.

"Then, this rare treasure belongs to the guests in VIP Room No. [-]. Congratulations!"

The time has come, Yayi dropped the hammer and announced the auction result.

······
"It's a little bit beyond expectations, but it's okay."

In the VIP room, Lai breathed a sigh of relief.

Within a few minutes, after the money was deducted from the share, the crystal that Lai was looking forward to was delivered to the VIP room.

The person who came to deliver the treasure was no longer an ordinary service staff, but his "old acquaintance", Murata Kasada.

"Mr. Lai, congratulations on obtaining the treasure. The head of the family asked me to congratulate you."

After verifying the authenticity, Lai's tense mind relaxed slightly and responded with a smile:

"I miss you, Mr. Jingsi, please thank me for me."

"must."

After seeing off Murata Isada, Rai handed the container containing the spar to Naki.

"Don't absorb the life energy outside for now. Let the tropical dragon wear it first. The function of this thing is nourishment."

"Okay." Naqi nodded in agreement, took out the spar, put it into the container she prepared, put it in her backpack, and prepared to take it out after it was over.

······
Having already made a lot of money, the subsequent auctions have become a hit and miss.

Including the 8000 million alliance coins paid by the Murata family, the two now have a "free purchase" limit of 200 million alliance coins.

It's a pity that although there are some good items in the later auctions, they are either obviously priced at a premium or not particularly precious.

After raising cards three times and spending a total of 400 million alliance coins, Lai bought two metal films of outstanding quality, a piece of spiritual cloth, and a dragon's tooth.

The three of them each had their own gains, and under the personal escort of Murata Kasada, they left the auction house with satisfaction.

"I heard that there is a black market tacitly approved by the alliance on the island in the southeast. Do you want to go shopping?"

On the way back to the elf center, Cortina was still in high spirits.

"That is also the sphere of influence of the Murata family, and it is not under the sun. Are you sure you want to go there?"

Lai didn't say anything, and Naqi explained the reason for him.

"Oh, forget it then."

Having experienced the Murata family's handiwork, Cortner instantly followed her heart.

But in the blink of an eye, she came to Lai's side and proposed happily: "I plan to let the Kati dog evolve tomorrow, why don't you come and see it together?"

"no problem."

Lai agreed very simply.

······
Auction venue, VIP room No. [-].

Murata Yasuji looked at the empty auction house and whispered:

"Jia Ding, this time we let them take away such a large amount of wealth. I'm afraid they will become our enemies soon."

"You are worrying too much. No one is an eternal enemy. With the family's financial resources, there is no one who cannot become our friend."

Murata Isada comforted him.

"I hope so." Murata Yasuji sighed, "After we go back, we will continue to arrange the assessment of the younger generation to increase the difficulty. Those who do not meet the standards will be reduced in supply according to the standards. The difference will be provided to those who are outstanding. It is time to make them vigilant. Times In terms of development, if our Murata family continues to follow the old path of making money, I am afraid that disaster is not far away."

"Yes, master."

Murata Isada bowed respectfully and said yes.
