Chapter 151 Fighting for the Sword (2)

The atmosphere in the hall was extremely depressing. Seeing Xiang Taorong's swordsmanship finally turning into fire and water, no one dared to express their anger.

Upon seeing this, Shangguan Ruomeng intervened and said, "Brothers, please be patient. This auction is based on money, so why bother getting angry..."

Everyone was speechless as they listened, thinking: Are you trying to stop a fight? Isn't this a typical case of fanning the flames?

Feng Jueyu saw this and felt that something was wrong. Putting aside whether the two had any grudges or not, the rumored harmony between the Xiang and Dao families was not fake. Could it be that there was something hidden in it.

Just as he was thinking about it, Xiang Taorong slapped the table and stood up and said, "What Xianmei said is right. The sword is free. In this case, Xiang will add another 10,000 taels and 260,000 taels."

Dao Xingkong's face twitched: "Two hundred and sixty thousand taels a copper, Xiang Taorong, I'm going to fight you..."

Everyone gasped after hearing this. It seemed that the two men must have broken up over something, so that even the vicious price gouging was changed into a deliberate provocation.

At this moment, Xu Zixiong smiled coldly and said: "Add one copper? Ha, Miss Shangguan just said that every time the price is increased, it must not be less than a hundred taels of silver. Brother Dao, you are violating the rules..."

"Really?" Dao Xingkong glared at Xu Zixiong and said to Xiang Taorong, "Then two hundred and sixty thousand and one hundred taels..."

"A hundred taels? I can still afford it." Chen Hongjie said disdainfully, resenting that he had been squeezed out of the bidding due to the price war between the two.

Shangguan Ruomeng heard this and asked softly: "Mr. Chen, are you increasing the price?"

Everyone looked at Chen Hongjie...

The poor fight for reputation, the rich fight for face...

Shangguan Ruomeng's question made Chen Hongjie unable to deny it.

"Twenty-six thousand and two hundred taels, I'm out..." Chen Hongjie sneered. Although the price was a bit high, it wouldn't be a big deal for him...

But when Chen Hongjie finished the price, Xiang Taorong quit and said: "Brother Dao, Brother Chen, I'm afraid this is not appropriate. The price increase of one hundred taels that Shangguan Xianmei just said was for an order. At the moment,

But for twenty copies, if you want to add it, it’s still two thousand taels, right?”

"Two hundred and sixty-two thousand taels?" Chen Hongjie thought it was something, and sneered: "Brother Xiang is absolutely right, so what can I do if I offer another two hundred and sixty-two thousand taels?"

Xiang Taorong turned coldly and said in a deep voice: "It seems that Brother Chen also wants to get involved. Okay, I'll offer you 300,000 to a certain person..."

"Three hundred thousand?"

Everyone was shocked...

The converted unit price is 150 taels of silver per bottle. The price has increased to fifteen times, which is already the limit.

Chen Hongjie was so irritated that he said without even thinking: "Four hundred thousand taels..."

Another hundred thousand added...

Hearing this, everyone had an ominous premonition. If the price continued to increase like this, it would be difficult for anyone to dare to compete with others. At this moment, half of the orders had been sold out, and there were still 50 copies left.

With over 100 families competing for 50 orders, it will end up being an unprecedented shopping spree.

Four hundred thousand taels...

Chen Hongjie stood up with high spirits and scanned the whole room. All the nobles in the hall were silent. Seeing that Dao Xingkong and Xiang Taorong were both silent, Chen Hongjie finally became arrogant. He looked at Xu Zixiong beside him and raised his eyebrows secretly.

.

This expression in Feng Jueyu's eyes can really explain something. It seems that Huichun Hall has long been on the side of the Xu family and has begun to act as a hawk.

"Brother Xiang, Brother Dao, Chen has already bid 400,000 taels, do you two still want to fight?"

Chen Hongjie's original intention was to provoke, because he saw that the two of them were determined to win these twenty orders, and wanted to raise the price so that the two of them would suffer a big loss.

However, as soon as he finished asking, Xiang Taorong and Dao Xingkong, who had been in a tense situation just now, smiled at the same time, clasped their fists together and said, "Brother Chen is really powerful, Xiang (Chen) is ashamed of himself..."

Xiang Taorong, the sword was in the air, and then it ceased...

In an instant, everyone in the audience couldn't help but laugh out loud after being stunned for a while, and the momentum gradually became louder and louder.

At this moment, everyone understood what was going on.

Xiang Taorong and Dao Xingkong had already discussed this matter a long time ago. They deliberately used tit-for-tat to frighten no one into intervening. However, the two of them calmly obtained five orders each, and the prices could be considered low.

At the end, Chen Hongjie intervened, and the two of them set up a trap in unison, increasing the price by more than fifteen times, directly dragging Chen Hongjie into the water, and became the first victim of the whole scene. It depends on the two people's intentions.

, those five orders were already fulfilled, and I didn’t even think about buying anymore.

This is malicious price gouging.

In fact, hundreds of thousands of dollars are nothing to Chen Hongjie and Huichun Hall. For comparison, he paid almost twice as much as Xiang Taorong and Dao Xingkong, which is hard to accept...

Four hundred thousand taels, if converted, each bottle of first-grade golden medicine is worth 200 taels, which has increased by twenty times...

From now on, the price for an order starts at 20,000 taels, which is four times higher than Xiang Taorong's 5,000 taels...

Profit from violence...

In the hall, everyone looked at Chen Hongjie with a hint of cynicism. It was understandable that Chen Hongjie fell into the trap of Xiang Taorong and Dao Xingkong and ordered twenty copies at a high price of twenty thousand taels each.

Order.

Twenty copies equals two thousand bottles. Tianjian Mountain purchased two thousand copies because there were many masters, so the spread would be very small.

How many nursing homes does the Chen family have? Usually four to five hundred bottles are enough to last a long time, but Chen Hongjie ordered twenty bottles at once, which was obviously too much.

Seeing Xiang Taorong and Dao Xingkong sit down, everyone at Feng Jueyu's table felt their stomachs turn. Now it seems that the speculation about the grudge between Dao and Dao that everyone had just faced was completely unnecessary.

Everyone fell into the trap of the two, allowing them to take advantage of everything.

Not only that, they also plotted against Huichuntang, Chen Hongjie,

The most important thing is that as a result, the base price of the order has skyrocketed to 20,000 taels...

Mu Hongtu squinted at Xiang Taorong and Dao Xingkong. After a while, he laughed and cursed: "These two bastards are as cunning as their father."

Shangguan Lingyun still closed his eyes and said nothing, not making any remarks...

Zhou Renyi was drinking tea with a smile on his face. From time to time he would raise his eyes and glance at Shangguan Lingyun who was pretending to close his eyes to rest, smiling silently.

Similarly, Zhang Changling said nothing, just pursed his lips and smiled tacitly with the Seventh Prince.

Only Tie Wujun laughed out loud and commented: "It's so cunning..."

Tiemei Shuangjian had been adjusting his breath with his eyes closed. After hearing this, he opened his eyes and looked at his son, then at Sima Ruyu and Feng Jueyu, and then looked at each other without saying a word.

The table was very quiet, and no one made any additional comments. But in fact, everyone was like a mirror, they just didn't say anything.

Everyone knows that Huairen Hall will probably make a lot of money from this order fair.

In the hall, Chen Hongjie stared at Xiang Taorong and Dao Xingkong with a face like pig liver, gnashing his teeth angrily. This trap cost him hundreds of thousands of silver, which was a huge loss.

Just when Chen Hongjie was about to have a fit, Xu Zixiong beside him pulled the corner of his clothes and said, "Sit down, you can't fight them."

Chen Hongjie gritted his teeth and finally sat down. He knew that Xu Zixiong was right. The Chen family was very famous in the imperial capital, but it was far behind the Seven Kings of the First Dynasty. Xiang Taorong and Dao Xingkong were Xiu

Why is far above it.

Yun Tao Palm and Heavenly Sword are both peerless martial arts in Tiannan. How can the Chen family compare...

As a result, the price of each bottle of Yipin Jinchuang Medicine has become 200 taels of silver, which is a huge difference from the original ten taels. And based on the initial price, the cost and profit of Yipin Jinchuang Medicine are at least

It's half and half. If you calculate it this way, Huairen Hall will probably make a lot of money this time.

A bottle of 10 taels of silver turned into 200 taels. It was simply a money grab...

Although they knew that the price was not worth it, there were still a lot of wealthy people vying for orders at no cost. As Shangguan Ruomeng took out the orders one by one, the entire order fair entered an unprecedented climax.

Orders were rushed out one after another, and in the blink of an eye there were less than twenty orders left.

Feng Jueyu originally thought that the Xu family, who wanted to deal with Shangguan Mansion, would take action at all costs this time, but after reading it, he realized that Xu Zixiong had been broken into pieces and delegated the auction rights to several people who were on the side of the Xu family.

Among the powerful people, they also took a lot of orders, but he just bought a symbolic one.

After 80 orders were sold, the price remained unchanged. The Shangguan family received a deposit of more than one million taels. Although it has not turned into real money, Shangguan Ruomeng is not afraid of anyone going back on his word. After all, the ten times the deposit

The price is not within the reach of ordinary people.

As the bidding continued, the trade fair gradually came to an end. Just when everyone thought that the trade fair would end without any disturbance, Xu Zixiong stood up and said: "I will bid 220,000 yuan for the last ten...

…”

The Xu family finally took action...

Two hundred and twenty thousand, even though it was only an increase of 20,000, it was more suspenseful than when dozens of orders were sold without any suspense.

At this time, those who had the ability to take action had all received orders, while those who had not done so might have been because they were not worth it, or they were short of money and did not have the ability to take more. Xu Zi's 20,000 yuan in silver was just the right amount.

"It looks like it's coming to an end." Tie Jian Tie Rushan said the first words after he came in, which also meant that the order fair was coming to an end.

However, at this moment, something strange happened. In front of a table at the entrance of Baiwei Building, a middle-aged man wearing a simple gray robe stood up. This man had raised eyebrows, was angry but not open, and had a tall and straight figure, like the five mountains.

The cold pines stand tall and tall, with the demeanor of a master.

The man stood up, cleared his throat, put his hands behind his back without a number plate, and said calmly: "I want the last ten cents, four hundred thousand taels..."
