The Ruler
169. Ice Jade Auction House 4.
" Three million," said the young man from room number seven and number one simultaneously.
" Four million Five hundred thousand," said the young man from room number nineteen, making the atmosphere tense.
The price competition was getting fiercer, even the price of the high-level soul beast pearl was now at eleven million five hundred thousand, but Long Chen still did not make his bid.
In the visitor's seat.
The guests set their sights on the room number nine occupied by Qing Ruo and Long Chen so curiously.
" It looks like they won't make another offer..."
" I think so too."
" But brother, what about their offer on that golden apple before?"
" It was just a bluff. Besides, I suspect the golden apples are theirs."
At the moment when they were having a conversation, Long Chen suddenly made his offer.
" Twenty million." he said, raising the price of fifteen million to five hundred thousand.
" Look, room number nine is back to work." said the audience, making the place boisterous. Even those visitors are starting to make it a bet.
" Sister, you really ruined this auction event!" said the young man from room number twelve raising his voice.
" Twenty-five million," Long Chen responded.
" Brother, don't ruin this auction...."
" Sister, there is nothing wrong with our way, because in the end those who dare to offer a high price will get it. After all, the bidding you did gradually like that was just a waste of time. If you want to have this item, let's compete," Long Chen said in an explanation and affirmation, leaving the young man speechless.
" Thirty million" said the voice of room number seventeen.
" Thirty-five million" said the young man from room five.
" Sister in room number nine, why silence?" Asked the young man in room twelve mockingly.
In his room.
Qing Ruo shook her head, as Long Chen wanted to respond to the ridicule.
" Just leave it," he said slowly.
" Good Ruler," while listening to the development of the auction price which is now at the price of forty-five million.
" Sixty million," said Long Chen, leaving the young masters who were in the other rooms wanting to bid, speechless.
" Agh.." cried the youth from room number fifteen annoyed. Not only that, a few other young masters clenched their hands hard.
" Absolutely. The three auction items in session three were taken all by him. Really rich," said the visitors whispering to each other, gazing at the number nine room that Qing Ruo and Long Chen occupied curiously.
" Wait a minute, because the auction's still not decided."
" Are you sure there are still people who dare to make an offer? If there is, it must be the owner of the resource...."
" This is truly new history. For thousands of years, only this time there was a figure who was so brave to spend a lot of money."
" The air is right. But roughly from which clan was the young master...."
" My brother is also very curious."

On the stage.
Hong Tianmi was still speechless, giving the other visitors time to make their bid.
****
In his room.
Qing Ruo who was sitting quietly, suddenly felt an aura of intimidation from room number fifteen, room number twelve and room number five.
" Lord, they are threatening us" Long Chen said.
" This must be the guardianship of the auction house," Qing Ruo said.
" It seems so," Long Chen said.
***
On the stage.
Hong Tianmi started counting.
" The first sixty million." he said out loud.
" Sixty million second...."
Until the count of three, none of the visitors dared to make an offer. That is because the price of such resources is completely beyond the limits of reasonableness.
" Well, the fourth item in this third session was won by the young master of room number nine. Once again, Congratulations," Hong Tianmi said, cupping his hands respectfully.
The atmosphere in the room was so boisterous. The actions of Long Chen, who had always made high-priced bids in the auction, had now become everyone's conversation. Especially the visitors who made the Long Chen competition a bet.
At the moment when everyone was talking about Long Chen's actions, the Hong Dou in his room seemed so calm.
" One hundred and ten million for three items, it is not a small amount, but it is also not a difficult thing for him," Hong Dou smiled wryly.
" What does Miss mean?" Ask the elder who is behind him.
" Older, that golden apple is theirs, and this last item, is also his," Hong Dou said softly.
" Really?" With an incredulous look.
" right. Earlier when we were making a transaction, the elder had not come yet" Hong Dou explained.
" Does miss know which clan this young master came from?" With a serious face.
" Na Clan," Hong Dou replied.
" Miss, I'm sure she must be undercover and using someone else's identity." With a serious face.
" I also believe in that," Hong Dou said.

On the stage.
The fifth item auction was about to begin, with a servant girl carrying a white Jade on a tray onto the stage.
" Last item," Hong Tianmi said as he opened the lid of the box, which made the place into an uproar.
" Bodhi Fruit... It's bodhi fruit." said the visitors dumbfounded.
" After being lost for thousands of years, this fruit has finally reappeared" said the elders who were in a special room speaking.
The appearance of bodhi fruit in the last session, made the auction place tense, even making the figure of a middle-aged man who was in room number thirteen, out of his room.
" The city lord. It's the city lord," said everyone dumbfounded.
" Honor Your Highness Ying Xu," Hong Tianmi said as he saluted, followed by everyone.
" Miss Hong Tianmi, it would be unfair if these five fruits were auctioned simultaneously. I'm sure everyone in this place wants it too. Please divide the five Bodhi fruits in five sessions. And I wanted that first session to be my part" he said, which was immediately approved by everyone in the room.
" Good Your Majesty." Hong Tianmi said respectfully, while acting calm, then called for the servant to distribute the five bodhi fruits into five different jade boxes.
****
In his room.
Qing Ruo really did not expect that the fruit was such a rare fruit that it was even in great demand.
" Lord, it turns out that during the time I buried it in the golden lake of the Liu clan, it turns out that the bodhi fruit has disappeared from the divine land," said Long Chen who also felt astonished.
" Previously Miss Hong Dou has explained to me that this fruit is a rare fruit, but I didn't expect it to stir up this place," Qing Ruo smiled happily.
