The Lightning Driver
Chapters. 16. A Thousand Gold Pieces
Indeed the extremely pure benefits and vitality emerged from the pill felt. The pretty attendant continued to explain all the advantages of the pill then he explained the price.
The pills all amounted to four pills, the price for his unit was twenty-five pieces of gold, to have one of them have to buy all four pills. The initial price is one hundred gold pieces, with the addition of five gold pieces each time the offer.
“One hundred twenty pieces of gold!” Smiling, Gou Long opened the bid, provoking the reaction of the audience at the auction.
Unwilling to budge the Main Family Patriarchs also bid.
“One hundred and fifty gold pieces!”
“Two hundred gold pieces!”
“Three hundred gold pieces!”
From the VIP room number eight this time began to sound.
“Five hundred gold pieces!”
The sound of this VIP room greatly shocked the entire audience, five hundred gold pieces was truly an incredible fortune, this was almost equal to the amount of wealth of the Main Family.
The voice that sounded from this VIP room was rather hoarse and a little creepy, the audience had never heard this tone of voice from any of the Main Families of Xia Yu City.
“Seven hundred gold pieces!”
Gou Long went back to fishing, he just carelessly raised the bid, he was sure the Main Families would not be willing to budge with him this time around.
Hua Mei, who knew the source of this pill from Gou Long, was astonished by Gou Long's attitude in bidding against this pill.
Meanwhile, Grandpa Zhou smiled, inwardly he said, “This boy is truly extraordinary, the source of wealth he has is endless.” He still did not know the pill, it was Gou Long who concocted it.
“Young souls are worth an example! Really motivated to step into the Sky Realm, when only a dozen years old, your boy is very talented!” grandpa Zhou said, praising.
“...” Gou Long smiled wryly, without saying anything.
“I was astonished by the Young Master in VIP room number seven, since it had been continuously bidding at such a high price, did it really have that much gold? He he he!”
The voice was emitted by the occupants of VIP room number eight, with a scornful tone, which also stimulated the audience at the auction wondering if it was really like that?
“Ha ha ha! ... Do you want to bet? I have gold or not?” gou Long replied as well to the scorn.
“Good! Let's bet on it! But before that I will introduce myself first, lest you regret later boy!” A hoarse and fierce voice answered.
After saying so, the silhouette of the person was already visible standing in front of the wide window hole of the auction house, so that all the attendees both from the VIP room as well as downstairs could see the figure of the person.
That person was a huge height with a haughty face romance with a thick bauk sideburn, there were many scarred strokes on his face.
With ages ranging in the forty years, she wore a black suit with a skull crest on the chest. While standing he also exuded a deep energy pressure, so that all the attendants could feel the power within the Peak Stage Earth Realm.
The old generation and the Patriarch of the Main Family, would know that fierce man, whereas the younger generation, did not know that person. He was the Patriarch of the Skull Valley Sect, this person was extremely difficult to serve, not because of his extremely high silat science but disgusting shamelessness.
What will be said is always opposite to what will be done, he is named Kun Hong.
Actually Patriarch Kun, had already sent two of his sect's top aides a few days ago to Xia Yu City. That's the Devil Face Codet and the Big Kingkong Devil, baby! Until the moment of his presence in Xia Yu City. She had not heard from the two maids, until she finally found two charred corpses in the city forest, which she believed was her main aide.
While diving drinking water is the parable, while looking for the ultimate maid killer, he also participated in this auction. With the treasures he brought along it was not difficult to become a VIP member in this auction house.
“I'm the Patriarch of the Skull Valley Sect, Kun Hong, I want to see your face boy!” kun Hong continued.
The audience thinks. “Really dear the Young Master, had to deal with the hardest man to serve in this Southern Region.”
Gou Long himself did not want to budge, he also got up and showed posture to the crowd. “Junior named Gou Long! Greetings to your seniors!” shouted Gou Long, his introductory style friendly to all attendees.
Some even scorn, “Ha ha ha! Apparently the pale face is rudine, maybe he does not have as much gold as he said, just his voice is big.” That's how different everyone thinks.
“Good now what kind of bet will senior run!” Gou Long immediately asked.
“The bet is easy, if you can prove you have a lot of gold, I will raise the offer of Condensate Pills to two thousand pieces of gold,” Kun Hong replied, smiling cunningly.
Unwilling to beat around the bush, Gou Long missed coming down in front of the auction attendant girl. “Alright! This girl is the judge!” gou Long said, then took out a thousand gold pieces from his universe ring.
A golden light immediately filled the room, everyone felt breathless as Gou Long took out gold like people eating rice alone, very easily.
“Do you still want to count!” Gou Long again took out another thousand gold pieces.
Quickly, he put the gold back into the ring of the universe and said, “Now it's your turn to keep the bet, bargain the pill for two thousand gold pieces!”
“No need to rush boy! If the speed even so no exciting.” Kun Hong began to dodge the bets he made.
“You tried to evade! Don't blame this younger generation for using violence.” Gou Long darted towards Kun Hong, with a bare-handed punch.
“Hold a blow!” Grandfather Zhou dashed along, mediating right before Gou Long's punch hit Kun Hong.
“Bokah! You really want to get kicked out of this auction?” ask Grandpa Zhou.
“Young Master! ... Please obey the rules at the auction house, at every auction there should be no fight or the young master will be revoked his VIP membership and banned from the auction for good.” The officer girl gave an explanation.
“Sorry of my carelessness! And thanks for the advice!”
Gou Long and Grandpa Zhou darted back to their VIP room.
The attendant girl continued the auction by starting to count the final offer from Gou Long.
“Seven hundred gold pieces first!”
“Seven hundred gold pieces second!”
“Eight hundred gold pieces!”
“Eight hundred and fifty gold pieces!”
“...” The offer continues to rise.
“Thousand gold pieces!”
This offer was made by City Lord Xia Yu, she did not hold back anymore. The Sky Realm is highly coveted by Southern Regional warriors because it is rare for anyone to achieve it.
A thousand and fifty gold pieces, would be the limit of the Main Family, although the Sky Realm was highly coveted, they were unwilling to take out more than a thousand and fifty gold pieces.
“Thousand hundred gold pieces!” Kun Hong raised the bid.
Kun Hong was already intending to toy with the Main Family, he was willing to pay a thousand more gold pieces for the pill. But, he had noticed the Patriarchs of the Main Family competing against each other for the pill, what harm would it do if he went fishing in this murky water?
“Bokah! Isn't it now exciting! Ha ha ha!..” He made fun of Gou Long
With a blackened face and a declining calm Murong Sun again bidding, “One thousand one hundred and fifty gold pieces!” he said weakly
Everyone heard this, even though his voice was weak and even a little small.
After waiting for a moment, and no one bid, the attendant began to count to the end of the third count, there were no more offers, then the Celestial Realm Condensate Pill was won by City Lord Xia Yu.
