Chapter seven hundred and thirty seventh high-grade spar
"Thank you so much, Master!"
There was a look of surprise on Ye Tian's face, which made Ding Hong's mouth twitch. This young man's mind shouldn't really be that simple, right?
"It doesn't matter, it's just a little effort..."
Ding Hong waved his hand, and when he was about to speak, his eyes suddenly stared at a car that had just been pushed in from the auction table, and he stood up suddenly, which shocked Ye Tian.
"How can a top-grade fire-attributed crystal produce a top-grade spiritual stone if there is no spiritual vein in the world?"
Ding Hong's eyes shone with a frightening light, and his heart was filled with turmoil. He originally thought that what appeared here was just a low-grade spiritual stone, but he never expected that it turned out to be a high-grade crystal stone.
You must know that even in the dimension he is in, high-grade spiritual stones are extremely rare treasures. They are only found in some long-established sects and are rarely seen by ordinary disciples.
Although this high-grade spiritual stone has been cut artificially and its spiritual energy has been slightly lost, Ding Hong believes that when he returns there with this spiritual stone, he will definitely be able to exchange it for the water attribute spiritual stone he needs.
Ding Hong secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, he came down the mountain in time, otherwise this opportunity would not have been his. At this time, the death of his junior brother had faded in his heart, leaving only this high-grade spiritual stone.
There was a burning gaze in his eyes. If he hadn't been concerned about being in the secular world, Ding Hong would have even thought of snatching it.
However, Ding Hong, who was in a state of excitement, did not notice that after he removed the Qi shield, Ye Tian sent out an imperceptible message, telling his father not to fight for the crystal.
Although Ye Tian could also sense that the spiritual energy contained in this crystal stone was far greater than the spiritual stones he had obtained, good things must be enjoyed in a lifetime.
Looking at the energetic Taoist beside him, Ye Tian knew that if he revealed his interest in this crystal stone, Ding Hong might hold a grudge and sow trouble for himself.
After Ding Hong stood up, the auctioneer on the stage said unhappily: "Sir, please sit down and don't disturb the order of the auction!"
During the auction of the first two items, the two people in the audience kept talking, which made the auctioneer feel that he had failed in hosting the auction, at least he failed to attract everyone's attention.
Ding Hong just opened his eyes, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and gave the auctioneer a cold look. The originally high-spirited auctioneer suddenly felt a chill all over his body, but he no longer dared to urge Ding Hong to sit down.
Looking back at Yun Huajun, Ding Hong sent a spiritual message: "No matter how much it costs, if you buy this thing, I will extend the lives of your two brothers for twenty years!"
Yun Huajun, who was sitting in the back row, opened his eyes suddenly and nodded repeatedly. In the past few days, the old Taoist had been reluctant to come up with some useful information, but he unexpectedly spit out his words today.
Yun Huajun is seventy-five years old this year, and he is well maintained. If he can extend his life for another twenty years, he will definitely live to be over a hundred years old, which is enough to make anyone excited.
"Second brother, you must take a picture of this stone, no matter the cost!" Yun Huajun's voice was trembling. Life is undoubtedly more important than money.
"Brother, don't worry. I have prepared sufficient funds, and there will definitely be no problems!" Yun Huatong has also witnessed the magic of the Taoist priest in the past few days, and naturally has no doubts about what the elder brother said -
"Fellow Daoist Ye, this crystal is of great significance to the old Taoist. I hope you won't fight for it!" After sitting down, Ding Hong glanced at Ye Tian lightly, and the threat in his words was fully apparent.
Although the Tianji Sect is powerful, after getting this high-grade spiritual stone in exchange for a water attribute spirit stone, Ding Hong has a great chance of advancing to the Jindan Avenue, and there is no need to be afraid of the Tianji Sect.
So if Ye Tian didn't know what he was doing and dared to fight with him, Ding Hong wouldn't mind finding an opportunity for him to become an immortal. Cultivating Taoism is an act of defiance, so how could Ding Hong care about other people's lives?
"Master Ding, this junior is cultivating in the secular world, and resources are extremely scarce. This... this..."
There was a hesitant look on Ye Tian's face. He didn't dare to agree immediately, otherwise this shrewd old man would definitely have suspicions.
"Um?"
A fierce light appeared in Ding Hong's eyes, but it was quickly hidden by him. He turned his palm over, and a red crystal stone as thick as his little finger appeared in his palm, saying: "You are not cultivated enough, and using that spiritual stone is a waste of resources. I am
There is a spiritual stone, which is enough for your cultivation!"
As he spoke, Ding Hong put the spirit stone into Ye Tian's hand. He always felt that what this boy said was untrue. There may not be any elders left in the world. It would be better to appease him than to suppress him forcibly. After all, it is rumored that there is a master of Jindan in Tianji Sect.
.
"Then...then thank you, senior!"
Although Ye Tian still looked a little reluctant, his resistance was no longer so strong. After releasing his spiritual mind and sensing it in the spirit stone, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"I don't know how to throw away such a useless thing?"
Ding Hong somewhat doubted his own judgment. If Ye Tian really had an elder from his master's sect behind him, wouldn't even a low-grade fire attribute crystal be so precious?
However, the auction on the stage had already started at this time, and Ding Hong quickly turned his attention. Even though he had practiced Taoism for more than two hundred years, his mood was slightly shaken at this time.
"This beautiful gemstone is the product left behind after the eruption of the Fournes volcano. It was turned into a beautiful work of art by skilled jewelers. The starting price is 8 million RMB, and each increase is 10,000 RMB.
Please bid!”
I don’t know if it was due to Ding Hong’s glance, but the auctioneer was obviously in a bad state at the moment. After briefly introducing the items, he announced the start of the auction.
"Good things are ruined!"
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, Ding Hong and Ye Tian couldn't help but look at each other, with wry smiles on their faces at the same time. If this spiritual stone had not been carved, it would be more useful to them.
"This guy knows his stuff."
After giving away the low-grade spiritual stone, Ding Hong didn't worry about Ye Tiandare playing any tricks at all, otherwise he would have taken advantage of it even if he met someone from Ye Tianshi's sect.
"I will pay 9 million RMB!"
When the auctioneer called out to start the bidding, Yun Huatong directly raised the number plate in his hand and raised the price by one million. He was showing his determination to win.
This is sometimes the case in auctions. When a rich man with strong financial resources shows sufficient interest in a certain object, many people will automatically give way. In some cases, this has become a potential rule.
However, these people in China, especially Yun Huatong, basically all the industries he invests in are done behind closed doors, and the number of times they participate in auctions is still too few. I don’t know that there are people abroad who specialize in dealing with this kind of "rich people".
people".
"This gentleman bids 9 million RMB. Is there any friend who is willing to bid? This crystal has been identified by experts and is a gem that has never appeared in the world. It is of great collection value!"
After hearing Yun Huatong's quotation, the auctioneer's eyes lit up, his speech became much more fluent, and he repeated what he had not introduced just now.
At the same time, the auctioneer's right little finger flicked vaguely on the auction table a few times, and someone in the audience who had been paying attention to his movements immediately received the instruction.
A well-known collector in the capital raised the sign and said with a smile: "Ten million RMB, Mr. Yun, I am not competing with you. You also know that I collect such gems!"
"Fifteen million RMB, I like this thing!" Yun Huatong raised the sign in his hand expressionlessly, sounding a bit domineering when he spoke.
As the auction progressed, the auctioneer undoubtedly liked this kind of auctioneer the most, and the secret code was sent out again.
"Twenty million, Mr. Yun, it's better to leave such things in the hands of professionals!"
The collector is not afraid of Yun Huatong. The field he is engaged in has no intersection with Yun Huatong, so he does not need to give him face.
And more importantly, as a professional trustee with a certain status, he can get a 10% commission from the price increase in this transaction. If it reaches 20 million, he can already earn 1 million.
"People are really stupid and talk a lot. They are obviously just a bastard."
Ye Tian, who was sitting in the front row, curled his lips. After experiencing the auction in Hong Kong, he already knew the auctioneer's tricks very well.
However, if it were Ye Tian who was bidding, let alone 20 million, he would be willing to bid even 40 million. After all, the value of this thing cannot be measured in terms of money.
"Forty million!"
Yun Huatong raised the number plate in his hand again. Just now, his elder brother had told Ding Hong's conditions in his ear. His thoughts at this time were similar to Ye Tian's. No matter how much money he spent, he would still get this spar.
Get it in your hand.
"Is Boss Yun crazy? How can this stone be worth 40 million?"
"That's right, let alone a gem with no provenance, even diamonds are not that expensive!"
"It's hard to buy willing people with a lot of money. Who is Mr. Yun? This is just out of anger."
When Yun Huatong called out the price, the venue immediately started to boil. In the eyes of real collectors, this stone was just a quick ruby at best. The auction price of eight million was very reluctant, and the auction price of forty million was simply too much.
Just crazy.
This time, even the agent didn't dare to act rashly. The price had already exceeded his psychological bottom line. If he shouted out a high price again and the other party stopped playing with him, he wouldn't even have a place to cry.
Not only the collector, but also the auctioneer on the stage did not expect that Yun Huatong would double the price at once. As the saying goes, just accept it when it is good. This time he did not send out the secret signal again, but after three inquiries, he repeatedly
’s hammered down the auction gavel.
"Congratulations to Master Ding!"
After Yun Huatong took the crystal stone, Ye Tian congratulated Ding Hong with an envious look, and then said, "I don't know where the real person lives. I want to disturb you!"
