But because he is the head of the Huangpu family with the deepest foundation among the four major families, they cannot afford the consequences if they don't give him face.
As a result, everyone in the hall was polite to him, and the scene was much grander than when the Chen family arrived.
Chen Zhan and others sitting in the first row also heard the commotion behind them and turned to look behind them. They saw the head of the Huangpu family, Huang Puke, greeting the people who came to set up the clothes warmly.
The old face was full of joy.
Just as Chen Zhan and others were looking at Huang Puke, Huang Puke had already noticed Chen Zhan sitting in the front row. He laughed strangely, then lined up the crowd and led the Huangpu family towards Chen Zhan.
"Oh, isn't this the head of the Chen family? It's been a long time since I last saw you. Why are you so free today and come here to play?" Huang Puke came to Chen Zhan, smiled softly, and cupped his hands.
"Isn't the head of the Huangpu family also free?" Chen Zhan stood up and smiled unnaturally.
"Haha, the grandson here teaches well and has a lot of free time. The grandson here does not teach well, but he rarely gets nervous. I think the Chen family master's precious grandson has achieved quite a lot now. I will bring him out tomorrow to have a look with me.
.If you think about it carefully, I haven’t seen you for two years, and you were your grandson that day.”
As soon as Huang Pu Ke finished speaking, there was a chuckle in the hall. This 'genius grandson' that Huang Pu Ke called had his meridians disabled by Huang Pu Lei two years ago. How could he still practice now?
Anyone who knew the reason would burst into laughter.
Chen Zhan and others turned pale when they heard these sarcastic words.
Huang Puke was very happy when he saw the livid faces of Chen Zhan and others. He patted his forehead and said with an apologetic smile: "Oh, look at my memory. The precious grandson of the Chen family had his meridians disabled two years ago."
, If I bring this up here, wouldn’t it arouse the displeasure of the Chen family? I hope the Chen family will not blame me for being abrupt."
After saying that, Huang Puke turned and walked to the right and sat in the first row. At the same time, the Lin family and the Xuanyuan family also arrived one after another. The Lin family sat on the side of the Chen family because they were allies with the Chen family.
The Xuanyuan family sat together with the Huangpu family.
"Old bastard" Chen Tian stood at the window of the wing. Naturally, he heard what Huangpu Ke said. His eyes flashed coldly and he said indifferently: "After the adult ceremony, you will know who is a waste. Then your Huangpu family will
Never rest."
People had arrived at the wrong time, and the time for the auction had arrived. The auctioneer came to the stage, talked a lot of nonsense, and then announced the start of the auction.
However, the first items to be auctioned were not of good quality, and there were not many people fighting for them. People from the four major families were also very quiet. This was not the purpose of their trip.
"Sir, you are here. The next auction is the rare 'Foundation-Building Spiritual Liquid'! I must have heard of the name of this spiritual liquid."
Okay, I won't say any more polite words. The starting price is five hundred gold coins." The auctioneer knocked the gavel and said excitedly.
When the words fell, many questions rang out in the hall. After all, the foundation-building spiritual liquid was too precious, and no one would put it up for auction.
But there is no need to question the credibility of Kallan Auction House. Soon, the doubts in their hearts disappeared without a trace, and they began to bid each other.
Although they knew that they would definitely fall into one of the four major families in the end, this did not stop their enthusiasm at all. The most important thing was that they were very happy to participate.
The members of the four major families did not participate in the bidding. They were just shrimps and millet at the beginning. They knew very well who their opponents were.
When the price was raised to one thousand gold coins, the Xuanyuan family took action. The Xuanyuan family folded their hands and said indifferently: "Two thousand gold coins."
"Wow!" As soon as the words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked. Two thousand gold coins were enough for a big family to spend two months. The Xuanyuan family was a bit generous.
At the same time, the Chen family, the Lin family and the Huangpu family also began to bid against each other. Every time a price was called, waves of exclamations could be heard in the hall.
"Eight thousand gold coins." Huang Puke's voice sounded, and when it fell, the Lin family's family member said: "Nine thousand gold coins."
"Hmph." After hearing the Lin family's offer, Huang Puke snorted in his heart and looked coldly towards the Lin family, but the latter simply ignored him.
Seeing the other party like this, Huang Puke continued to shout: "Ten thousand gold coins"
When the head of the Lin family heard the other party's quotation, he immediately frowned and opened his mouth to scream, but as soon as the words reached his throat, he suppressed them. He shook his head helplessly. This price already exceeded the price of the foundation-building spirit liquid itself.
"Thirteen thousand gold coins." Chen Zhan closed his eyes and spat out a few words indifferently.
The voice was not loud, but the whole place was silent. Everyone in the place looked at Chen Zhan. Chen Tian's father, Chen Gan, opened his mouth to say something, but after seeing the old man's appearance, he swallowed the advice abruptly.
Went back.
When Chen Tian heard Chen Zhan's words, he was also shocked. He didn't expect that the old man had such courage.
The auctioneer on the stage was stunned for a while. When he came back to his senses, he excitedly shouted: "Is there anything higher than thirteen thousand gold coins?"
Huang Puke looked at Chen Zhan with a livid face. He didn't expect this old man to be so wealthy. Thinking about it, he still underestimated him.
When he heard the auctioneer's words, he didn't ask any more. The price far exceeded the value of the foundation-building liquid itself. It would be more cost-effective to buy more elixirs.
The head of the Xuanyuan family had the same idea, so he shut his mouth and stopped bidding.
There was no sound in the audience until the auctioneer shouted three times and knocked down with a hammer. "Thirteen thousand gold coins were sold, and the foundation-building spirit liquid belongs to the Chen family."
Chen Tian shook his head and smiled bitterly in the side room. He didn't expect a knock on his door, but this was also the best result. As the saying goes, the wealth does not go to outsiders. After the auction, Chen Tian stopped staying, lowered his hat, and quietly left the auction site.
.
When I came to the front desk again, the middle-aged man who received the reception congratulated me last time: "Congratulations, sir, on the good price!"
Hearing this, Chen Tian just waved his hand and asked indifferently: "Does your auction house have ready-made elixirs? The higher the grade, the better."
Before setting off, Chen Tian asked his teacher that no matter the best elixir, he could make it into spiritual liquid, and the higher the grade, the better the quality of the spiritual liquid he would produce.
After the middle-aged man heard this, he paused and then replied: "I don't dare to make the decision on the elixir that is now on sale. I still need to ask Master Xiaoye. If you don't mind, I will go up and ask about it."
.”
"Yes." Chen Tian nodded. There are really many frameworks in this auction house.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man got up and went up to the attic. After about half a quarter of an hour, he came down again. This time he didn't hesitate. After asking how many elixirs he wanted to buy, he went into the dark to search.
