Chong De had long known that Xu Taiping wanted to take pictures of the Dragon Tower, so he was very clear about the purpose of Xu Taiping’s question.
“Then there’s no problem.”
Xu Taiping nodded, and then stretched with his fingers crossed.
Soon, the voice of the big shopkeeper of Shi Yi Zhai rang out again——
The next item to be pawned is called the Dragon Tower. Although this tower is only a Heaven Rank Spiritual Treasure it is extremely sturdy. After being activated and entering the tower, it will take at least five years and at most seven years. Even a Huajing powerhouse outside the tower will not be able to break into the tower.”
After hearing this, many guests present also became excited.
And the gaze of that Qi Yu became even more scorching.
However, when the big shopkeeper reports the price there was a burst of sighs on the field — “This Heaven Rank Spiritual Treasure Dragon Tower” the minimum bid is 10,000 gold essence coins and each increase should be no less than 1,000 gold essence coins. Everyone can bid now.
10,000 gold essence coins have long exceeded the base price in the hearts of most of the guests present.
If this were a Xianbao, it would be fine, but a Heaven Rank Spiritual Treasure is sold at this price, and they really can’t accept it.
Even the gambler Chu Xiaoxiao was startled when she heard this price.
“Our Qi family is willing to offer eleven thousand gold essence coins.”
Just as everyone was talking about it, Qi Yu’s voice rang out in the hall.
Then, there was a continuous sound of surprise in the hall. Obviously, everyone didn’t expect that someone would be willing to offer ten thousand gold essence coins for a spiritual treasure.
And after Qi Yu made his offer, the shopkeeper of Shiyi Zhai asked several times in a row, but no one increased the price.
This scene was almost exactly the same as the scene Xu Taiping saw in his left eye.
Everyone, if no one is willing to offer a higher price, then this dragon Pagoda will belong to the Qi family.
The shopkeeper’s expression was obviously a little disappointed.
“Brother Taiping, if you don’t make an offer, then I’m going to make an offer！”
At this time, Chu Xiaoxiao suddenly urged Xu Taiping.
Looking at the fanatical look in Chu Xiaoxiao’s eyes, Xu Taiping had a hunch that the Zhongwang Mansion would sooner or later be gambled away by her.
“I offer twenty thousand gold essence coins.”
In the end, Xu Taiping still reported his own price.
The reason why he didn’t increase it by one thousand at a time was because he wanted to see if he could put pressure on Qi Yu and make him dare not increase the price.
Anyway, it’s better to save a little if you can.
And after Xu Taiping reported the price of twenty thousand gold essence coins, the auction hall of Shiyi Zhai suddenly exploded.
All eyes turned towards Xu Taiping, the “lunatic”.
Chu Xiaoxiao’s gaze towards Xu Taiping changed from anticipation to admiration in an instant.
Of course, it was the kind of admiration a gambler has.
”Kid, are you deliberately going against my Qi family？”
Suddenly, a fierce shout from Qi Yu suppressed the discussions in the hall.
As early as when Chu Xiaoxiao was bidding against him before, Qi Yu suspected that Xu Taiping was behind it. After all, he was severely humiliated by the two of them on the third floor before.
So when he just heard Xu Taiping raise the price by ten thousand gold essence coins for the first time, the resentment that had accumulated in Qi Yu’s heart for a long time suddenly erupted.
”Amitabha, Young Master Qi, my brother Taiping is just bidding according to the rules of the Shiyi Zhai. You’re overthinking it.”
Before Xu Taiping could speak, Monk Chongde stood up and retorted Qi Yu.
Such a good opportunity to perform, he naturally wouldn’t miss it.
As for whether he would offend the Qi family, he didn’t care. At worst, he would go back to the Banruo Temple. Anyway, he was tired of staying in the capital city.
”Monk Chongde, don’t think that just because you are protected by Master Chongyang, our Qi family doesn’t dare to do anything to you！”
Qi Yu’s anger was suddenly spread to Chongde.
”Master Chongde, don’t be excited.”
Chongde wanted to retort, but was held down by Xu Taiping.
Then, Xu Taiping turned his gaze to the shopkeeper of Shiyi Zhai and said：
“Youdaoplaceholder0, if no one bids anymore, is the Pagoda mine?”
After hearing this, there was another uproar in the hall.
Many guests who had previously thought that Xu Taiping was deliberately raising the price also reexamined Xu Taiping at this time.
Including the shopkeeper of Shiyi Zhai.
“This guest, if no one bids higher, this dragon Pagoda is naturally yours. But the premise is that you have to pay the gold essence money on the spot. Our Shiyi Zhai’s rule has always been to pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other.”
Although the shopkeeper’s words seemed very polite on the surface, in fact, there was a hint of warning in them.
“No problem.”
Xu Taiping nodded without any hesitation.
The shopkeeper took a deep look at Xu Taiping, then looked at Chongde beside him, and then nodded and said loudly：
“Dear guests, if no one bids higher, this Pagoda will belong to this guest.”
His words were actually addressed to Qi Yu.
Because obviously, the only ones who could bid higher now were the Qi family.
“Good, very good, very good！”
Qi Yu was so angry that his face was a little distorted. After trying to calm his breath, he sneered and said loudly: “Our Qi family is willing to pay twenty-one thousand gold essence money!”
Hearing that Qi Yu actually increased the price, the people in the hall were also in an uproar. Obviously, they don’t understand that the Qi family would want this dragon Pagoda so much.
“You bastard, if you say you’re not deliberately raising the price, then raise the price again！ Let’s see if you dare！”
Youdaoplaceholder0 it all the way from the third floor until now, Qi Yu was a bit out of control from anger.
Hearing this, the eyes of the people all looked at Xu Taiping in unison.
“Lord Tian Protector, if you don’t like that Qi Yu, you can punish him privately. There’s no need to get angry with him on this matter. If the price is increased further and you can’t come up with the gold essence money, it will be difficult to explain to the Shiyi Studio on this side.”
Chong De reminded Xu Taiping in a voice transmission at this time.
“Young Master Taiping, teasing that Qi Yu is enough. Don’t compete with him anymore.”
At this time, Qing’er, the maid of Chu Xiaoxiao, also reminded Xu Taiping.
Only Chu Xiaoxiao still had a fanatical expression on her face and looked at Xu Taiping full of anticipation.
After slightly pondering for a while, Xu Taiping raised his head and then raised the token in his hand and said：
“I offer thirty thousand gold essence money.”
As soon as these words came out, the smile that was still left on Qi Yu’s face suddenly froze there.
And Chu Xiaoxiao beside Xu Taiping, after hearing this, the fanaticism on her face and the anticipation in her eyes all turned into supreme reverence.
It was a kind of reverence that a believer has for a deity.
