Chapter 150 Fighting for the Sword (1)

 Colorful silks were dancing in the hall, and with the low sound of gongs slowly rising in the distance, the show of the order fair officially began.

"The 21st order, the base price is one thousand taels, please bid..."

Shangguan Ruomeng raised the wooden hammer tied with a red cloth tip in his hand, and his slender voice penetrated the entire hall, crisp, clear and penetrating. As the voice sounded, many aristocratic families raised their number plates.

"One thousand taels..."

"One thousand two hundred taels..."

"One thousand three hundred taels..."

"..."

The price calls continued, and after a moment, the price of this order was doubled, reaching a height of two thousand taels...

"Three thousand taels..."

An unknown person suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs, suppressing the entire audience. As everyone looked, the confident young man came into view.

Jingzhou Heavenly Sword Xiaohouye, the sword is empty...

Not surprisingly, this person's background is definitely not small. One of the seven kings of Tiannan, Dao Bohou Aisun, the most outstanding person in Jingzhou's descendants, is undoubtedly Dao Xingkong.

Dao Xingkong was a low-key, heroic man, and his reputation had been spread for a long time. Even at the scene, he was calm and composed before. When the bidding gradually decreased, he suddenly raised the price by one thousand taels of silver.

One thousand taels is really not much, but this span means that the price of the first-grade Jinchuang medicine has been rising silently, which is three times higher than the order price of Tianjian Mountain.

"Three thousand taels..." Shangguan Ruomeng smiled brightly, his eyebrows curved into a crescent moon, his eyes swept across the hall to the dignitaries, and said: "The Jingzhou sword family has offered three thousand taels, is there anyone else bidding?"

"It's really not expensive to get this medicine for only 3,000 taels. I'll pay 3,500 taels."

"Shua~shua~shua~" Countless eyes quickly moved away and fell on Chen Hongjie.

For the young shopkeeper of Huichun Hall, three thousand five hundred taels is really nothing in his eyes.

"Three thousand five hundred taels?" Another voice sounded from the side, thick and steady, with clear pulse, as if it was a martial arts practitioner: "I will pay four thousand taels."

"Shua~shua~shua~"

On the left side of the hall, in an inconspicuous position, a boy stood out. The number plate he held in his hand was engraved with a large word "xiang".

Seeing the number plate, everyone present turned cold, and their eyes moved to the boy's side, a young man in a blue shirt who exuded vigor.

"Xiang Taorong..."

Mu Hongtu's old face tightened, his eyes were cold and threatening, and he murmured lightly: "I haven't seen him for a few years, but I didn't expect that his "Mist Wave Palm" has reached such an extent."

"Xiang Taorong? Who is he?" Feng Jueyu looked at the young man in blue shirt.

Sima Ruyu raised her beautiful eyebrows, with a hint of envy in her beautiful eyes, and said softly: "Nine waves of dense mist, waves surging like clouds, the sea of ​​clouds Xiangjia's unique skills..."

"To family?"

Feng Jueyu's memories surged up: at the border of Yunzhou, there was a sea, which was covered with smoke and fog all day long, like a fairyland. And right on the border of Qi Jingzhi's jurisdiction, on the east side of the vast sea, lived in seclusion

The family of Xiang Bohou, one of the seven kings of Tiannan.

It was rumored that he practiced martial arts with his family members, and when Tiannan heard about Yun Yun Jiutao's "Yun Tao Palm", he suddenly gathered his palm skills in a large family in Dacheng.

"Xiang Taorong! He is Xiang Bohou's only beloved grandson and the successor of the Xiang family."

"Perfect Lingwu, a cultivation level as good as Dao Xingkong."

Feng Jueyu's eyes were focused, and he wandered around the hall with the spirit of life and death, and immediately locked onto the young marquis of the Xiang family.

Yunzhou Xiang family, Jingzhou sword family, hereditary titles, two young princes appeared at the same time.

Dao Xingkong raised his glass and drank the wine. His eyes were filled with the long-lost fighting spirit, and he looked from a distance and said loudly: "Brother Xiang, you are well."

"Brother Dao..." Xiang Taorong raised his glass from a distance and drank the same drink, but did not stand up.

Just listen to Dao Xingkong say: "Even if the price of such magic medicine is increased ten times, it is not high. Although our Dao family is not as expensive as the rich in the city, we can still afford this mere thousand taels of silver. Four One thousand five hundred taels, brother Xiang, I’m offended.”

Following Dao Xingkong's words, the price of Yipin Jinchuang Medicine saw an increase of almost five times, and everyone present was impressed.

Xiang Taorong's expression remained unchanged, and he laughed and said: "Brother Dao's words are reasonable. In this case, add another five hundred taels to someone and make up the whole. If Brother Dao wants it, feel free to bid..."

"Five thousand taels..." The boy raised his number plate.

How did these two people get into a fight?

It is rumored that the Xiang family and the Dao family have a very close relationship, and they are considered close friends. The relationship between the two families is iron-clad. However, at the order meeting today, some hostile forces hidden in the dark have not yet begun to confront each other. These two key points are iron-clad. Instead, the tough family started fighting first, which immediately made everyone present full of doubts...

Chen Hongjie was caught in the middle, and his face turned purple with anger. It stands to reason that the price of this golden medicine has tripled. After all, excluding the twenty copies taken by Tianjian Mountain, there are still eighty copies. There is plenty of time to fight for the price. .

But unexpectedly, the Xiang family and the Dao family started a price war as soon as the show started. In the blink of an eye, the price was raised to five times. How would other people bid in the future?

The base price of Yipinjinchuangyao is not expensive, and there is a lot of room for appreciation.

Everyone knows it.

But the price increase is not that high.

At this moment, it seems that the remaining seventy-nine base prices will start at least five thousand taels.

Being so disturbed by Xiang Taorong and Dao Xingkong, the atmosphere in the hall, which was unprecedentedly high, suddenly became extremely depressing.

Not counting Tianjian Mountain, the Xiang family and the Dao family are the two great families in the south of the country, and they are as difficult to mess with as the government, the Xu family, and the Mu family.

The latter three families settled in the Tiannan Imperial Capital. The Xiang family and the Dao family were different. Since the founding of the dynasty, the Xiang family and the Dao family lived in seclusion in Yunhai and Jingzhou respectively. No one knows what their development has become now. According to rumors , these two families seem to be developing in the direction of a martial arts family, and are not as enterprising as imagined.

The price was raised to five thousand taels, and Feng Jueyu was naturally happy, but he was still not satisfied with the price. In fact, he had already arranged manpower to help the situation at the critical moment, but with Xiang Taorong, Dao Xingkong, and this secret chess move. It can be postponed for a while before use.

Five thousand taels once...

Shangguan Ruomeng sang a cappella on the high platform, and the whole audience fell into silence.

Offending the Xiang and Dao families is also not a good thing. Moreover, the sudden rise in prices has made everyone fall into deep thought and temporarily confused about the direction.

Surprisingly, when Wuqianliang started shouting, Dao Xingkong shook his head and sat down, no longer raising the price.

"Five thousand two or three times... Congratulations to Brother Xiang for receiving this order." Shangguan Ruomeng Yingying bowed, and then asked someone to deliver the order and stamp it with a big seal, and then it was signed.

Then, Shangguan Ruomeng called for another order. Before he could say anything, Dao Xingkong shouted from a distance: "I will pay five thousand taels..."

Well!

Everyone was suddenly startled, and thought to themselves: This is so fast, and they haven't even announced the price yet.

Shangguan Ruomeng smiled slightly: "The starting price for the second order is five thousand taels. Brother Dao has already bid five thousand taels. Is there any increase in price?"

As everyone in the venue looked at each other, five thousand taels had been called out twice, and no one had raised the price. Finally, the 22nd order was signed with the Dao family at the undisputed price of five thousand taels.

"The next one..." Shangguan Ruo raised his head, the lowest price: "Five thousand taels..."

"Five thousand taels..."

Wow!

This time it was faster, but the shocking thing was that the person who shouted was Xiang Taorong's personal servant...

"This... so fast..." Everyone stared.

Before anyone could speak, Dao Xingkong stood up with an annoyed look on his face and said, "Brother Xiang, you took too much."

"It's just the second order. Each order is 100 bottles. Is that still more?" Xiang Taorong raised his lips in disdain...

Dao Xingkong said with a cold expression, "It's really not much, I'll pay five thousand one hundred taels."

"Five thousand two hundred taels"

"Five thousand three..."

"Five thousand four..."

The two men refused to give in and started a price war on the spot. It seemed that they were willing to fight to the end. The wealthy people in the audience were frightened and did not dare to intervene in the price war between the two.

"Five thousand and five..." Dao Xingkong slapped the table and stood up, glaring and frowning.

Xiang Taorong stopped talking and suddenly said with a smile: "In that case, Xiang will no longer argue with Brother Dao." He pressed the waiter next to him who wanted to increase the price.

As a result, the two orders were successfully auctioned for 5,000 taels and 5,500 taels respectively...

This scene made countless people wonder, when did the knife and swordsmen become incompatible?

In fact, even Shangguan Lingyun, Mu Hongtu, Zhang Changling, and the Seventh Prince were confused. They didn't pay much attention to the price hike at first. Instead, like everyone else, they were thinking about breaking up the Xiang and Dao families.

At this time, the 23rd order had come in. It was still a price war between Xiang Taorong and Daoxingkong. The third time, Xiang Taorong won the bid and increased the price by 500 taels, ordering it at 6,000 taels.

The 24th copy, Dao Xingkong did his job and won 6,500 taels...

In this way, the two people seemed to be in harmony at the beginning, then became tit-for-tat, and finally became a quarrel. It looked like the wealthy people in the room were sweating. They were afraid that if the two people disagreed, they would fight on the spot and win the fifth order in vain.

At that time, no one noticed it.

At this time, the results of the auction were that the Xiang family and the Dao family each held five orders, and the price had risen to 10,000 taels.

The atmosphere of the entire order fair was particularly weird. Xiang Taorong and Dao Xingkong were both outstanding figures among the younger generations. It was very possible that they would not admit defeat to each other. Everyone present did not think there was anything wrong. But at this time, Dao Xingkong

I was very upset because I bought the fifth order for 10,000 taels. I slapped the table and stood up and shouted to Xiang Taorong: "Xiang Taorong, it's not pleasant to have such an order one by one. Dao paid 200,000 taels and bought another 200,000 taels."

If you have the guts, will you continue to bid?"

The fight started... Everyone was sweating profusely, and they were too frightened to say anything.

Xiang Taorong pursed his lips and said disdainfully, "I'm afraid you won't succeed, so I'll pay 220,000 taels..."

"Two hundred and thirty thousand taels..."

"Two hundred and forty thousand taels..."

"Two hundred and fifty thousand taels..."

Dao Xingkong shouted loudly, and everyone gasped when they heard this, "250,000 taels, after conversion, the unit price of each bottle of Jinchuang Medicine is 125 taels, which is more than ten times higher than just now..."
