The woman in purple said to all the auctioneers present: "The starting price is one hundred taels of gold! Each increase in price must not be less than ten taels of gold!"
"One hundred taels...gold!"
Everyone present was shocked when they heard this price. One hundred taels of gold, what is this concept?
One hundred taels of gold is equal to one thousand taels of silver, which is a ratio of one to ten. This is just based on the price ratio.
In fact, many things, especially extremely rare items, cannot be purchased with silver at the same price and must be purchased in gold! Therefore, the value of gold is far higher than that of silver.
For example, the life-extending pills sold at this auction house, among other things! The degree of rarity alone cannot be measured by silver, it must be measured by gold!
Since the auction price is one hundred taels of gold, you cannot use one thousand taels of silver to raise the price.
"One hundred taels of gold!"
Suddenly, a loud shout came from behind Xiao Langling and the others! Judging from the voice, it should be a middle-aged man.
Everyone looked back and found that there was a special VIP auction seat at the back, which was extremely conspicuous.
"As expected of the royal family, I asked for one hundred taels of gold." Xiang Qiu said with an indifferent expression.
When Xiao Langling heard what Xiang Qiu said, he couldn't help but asked curiously, "How do you know you are from the royal family?"
Xiang Qiu explained: "That kind of position can only be entered by nobles or members of the royal family. The person sitting there is not from the royal family. Could it be that he is a beggar?"
"I'll offer one hundred and ten taels!" A voice came from the audience in response to the bidding.
"One hundred and fifty taels!"
The man's voice came from the VIP table. And from the tone of his voice, it was obvious that he was a little impatient.
"One hundred and sixty taels of gold!"
There was another bidding call from somewhere in the audience!
"Two hundred taels of gold!" A man's roaring voice came from inside. At the same time, a man in a cloak stretched out a golden token engraved with a five-clawed golden dragon.
"This life-extending pill! We, Prince Yan, are bound to win it! We, Prince Yan, are determined! If anyone continues to fight for it, they will be against Prince Yan's palace!"
"King Yan!"
Everyone present was immediately shocked. King Yan, who is that? That is the son of the current emperor of China! Although he is the youngest! But he is the son of the entire China.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The strongest person in the world! It is said that a few years ago, he was already at the tenth level of the Martial Saint and was about to reach the level of the Martial God. Moreover, his strength was terrifying and he could defeat his opponents by leapfrogging the level.
The emperor was worried that his youngest son was too talented and arrogant. Once he had strong military power, the consequences would be disastrous if he rebelled. Therefore, such an outstanding King Yan did not have much military power. But he was still the most powerful person in the entire country.
King of respect and fear.
The Prince of Yan has already started to argue and made his attitude clear, but who dares to fight? Moreover, no one dares to take the attention of the Prince of Yan by killing people and seizing treasures, unless he is tired of living and wants to be executed by the whole family. In the end, the Life-Extension Pill was taken by that man
The cronies of King Yan bought it for two hundred taels of gold.
"Has King Yan come to Yizhou City? If he comes, my father should tell us to pay attention to things." Xiao Lingying was very puzzled. If such a big man comes to Yizhou, he will definitely be notified in advance.
Either King Yan paid a private visit incognito and his father didn't know about it. Or King Yan didn't come at all and just sent someone to get the longevity pill. But think about it, the latter is more likely. After all, King Yan is so noble and has everything to do every day, how could he condescend to him casually?
Coming to Yizhou?
"Why are they so enthusiastic about the Life Extension Pill? Is it so good? Doesn't it just increase your life span by ten years?" Xiao Langling was puzzled. Although she knew the value of the Life Extension Pill, she didn't think it was worth it.
Fight crazily, even at any cost.
"Why do you say that?" Xiang Qiu was puzzled, thinking that Xiao Langling was talking nonsense again.
"Even if the life-extending pill can increase life span by ten years, it only adds ten years to life." Xiao Langling said calmly: "The life-extending pill is just a life-extending pill, not an elixir of life, nor an elixir of immortality. It only increases life span, but it does not
It's as good as I imagined. It's even not as practical as the Child Rejuvenation Pill."
"..." Xiang Qiu was stunned for a moment before explaining: "Obviously the Rejuvenation Pill is more advanced than the Life Extension Pill. It is a ninth-grade elixir, okay? Otherwise, how could that guy Huayao eat the elixir that he had failed to refine and still be able to survive?
Is it a bit exaggerated to repay the child and also lose a lot of cultivation? In comparison, it is equivalent to giving the user a life span of nearly a hundred years. Do you think this is comparable to the life extension pill? "
"Yes, that's why I think the longevity pill is useless. At least it's useless for young people." Xiao Langling said.
"Take the analogy of Polo. He is only eighteen years old this year, and his life span can be ninety years! And after taking the life-extending pill, he can live a hundred years. Doesn't it sound good? It is indeed good. But if
He took the elixir and was chopped down when he was twenty years old.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
?What’s the use of having those lifespans? How many people die accidentally? And how many people die at the end of their lives? Obviously the former is higher.”
"Uh... Polo took the life-extending pill and was chopped down when he was twenty... poof!"
Xiang Qiu couldn't help but laugh after hearing Xiao Langling's metaphor: "It seems that this is indeed the case! Thinking about it this way, a life-extending pill is not as valuable as a piece of candy."
At the same time, at Polo's house...
"Ah sneeze!"
Polo, who was leaning on the sofa watching a movie, sneezed without warning.
"Who said bad things about me? Well...it must be that girl Lingling! She must be punished." As he said that, Polo showed an excited expression.
Polo wasn't just guessing. After all, the only person close to him in this world was Xiao Lingling. If he felt that someone was speaking ill of him behind his back, she would be the first person he thought of.
…
"I really can't believe that it turns out that the Life Extension Pill has been reserved by King Yan." Although Xiao Langling felt that it was a pity that the Life Extension Pill was taken away like this. But it is not a pity, she does not need this thing now. She is just visiting now,
She has no financial means to participate in the auction. Moreover, the miracle doctor Hua Yaohua has a good relationship with her now. If she wants to extend her life in the future, won’t she be done with practicing with Hua Yao at worst?
"No, this should be said as a matter of course."
Xiang Qiu's expression was very calm at this moment: "I have heard before that the father of the contemporary emperor, the Supreme Emperor, is about to be ninety years old, and it is approaching his ninetieth birthday. The royal family and nobles must be preparing for the Supreme Emperor
As a congratulatory gift, King Yan just wanted to give his grandfather a longevity pill as a congratulatory gift."
"That's it."
Xiao Langling smiled and said: "I didn't expect you to know this news. From this, it seems that King Yan is quite filial and not as ambitious as the rumors say."
"Not always."
Xiang Qiu said with an indifferent look: "Generally ambitious people are very good at forbearing. Do you know why the soles of people's feet are whiter than the insteps? Because they are always hidden."
