Chapter 57 - Chapter 57: The Heroic Marquis’s Means

 "The next item auctioned is —— Millennium Melting Star Grass "

 When he heard the five words " Millennium Melting Star Grass ", Long Chen's heart beat very unsatisfactory a few times. This was his ultimate goal in this auction. It can be said that he was determined to win.

 If the thousand-year-old star-melting grass is used, Long Chen is 100% sure of refining the top-grade star-melting elixir. Such star-melting elixir can 100% resolve the alien aura in Chu Yao's body.

 Originally, Longchen did not expect to get the melted star grass that is more than a thousand years old. It is already very rare in a hundred years. After all, melted star grass is one of the essential medicines for many second-order elixirs.

 Picking is also very severe, with a large gap. The difference between the ordinary melting star grass and the refined melting star pill and the thousand-year melting star grass cannot be calculated reasonably.

 For Chu Yao, no matter what the price he paid, he had to get it. Originally, he had no problem taking these ten melted star grasses, so he did not deliberately take care of Huayun Pavilion.

 After all, Huayun Pavilion attaches great importance to reputation. If the things on the list are detained privately, Huayun Pavilion will not be able to explain to the outside world, so it is basically impossible to open this back door for yourself, and simply avoid opening your mouth to avoid embarrassing everyone.

 However, even if it is precious, there are not many alchemists after all. Long Chen believes that with his own financial resources, he is very sure.

 But it's different now. That idiot woman Xia Baichi keeps staring at him. If she knows her purpose, I'm afraid that idiot woman will make Long Chen bankrupt and even have to take off her pants.

 So before Long Chen, no matter what baby comes out, he will shout. As long as Xia Baichi takes action, he will continue to shout, as if he is against Xia Baichi and deliberately tricked her. In fact, Long Chen is just to pave the way for this step.

 "Ten thousand-year-old melted star grasses, more than a dozen precious second-order elixirs and essential medicines. I don't need to say more about their preciousness.

 Ten thousand-year-old melted star grasses were auctioned together, with a starting price of 500,000 gold coins. Yao Niqian's jade hand fell.

 "700,000"

 "800,000"

 ". . . . . "

 As Yao Niqian's voice fell, a dozen or so people immediately began bidding, and these people were basically some old men.

 Long Chen saw several familiar figures, all in the Alchemists Guild, and saw some old guys, but like him, they were all Dantu.

 There are also some raw faces, but I guess they are also some alchemists, otherwise laypeople will never know the true value and use of this kind of thing.

 "two million"

 Seeing an old man defeat all his opponents at a price of one hundred and eighty thousand, Long Chen finally calls out his price as Yao Niqian begins the countdown.

 However, when he shouted out the price, Long Chenxin suddenly raised it. He was originally praying, hoping that Xia Baichi would also bid, so that he could take the initiative and make people look like he was targeting Xia Baichi.

 In that case, he is most likely to get the molten star grass at the lowest price, the most secure means.

 But God seemed to be asleep and did not hear Long Chen's prayer. Xia Baichi, a Dantu, actually had no interest in the melting star grass, which made Long Chen curse.

 "Miss Baichi, how about it, do you want to try the water? " After Long Chen finished calling, he immediately said lightly to Xia Baichi's box.

 After Long Chen finished shouting, the audience was slightly quiet: Does Long Chen want to use this to demonstrate to Xia Baichi?

 "Baichi, don't be fooled, this kid deliberately angered you " Xia Changfeng hurriedly said, he was afraid that Xia Baichi would start to be stupid again in anger.

 "Do you think this girl is an idiot? Will such a low-level person be able to do it? " Xia Baichi's cold voice came, filled with disdain.

 When he heard Xia Baichi's reply, Long Chen couldn't help but feel very happy, but he didn't dare to show it. Miss Baichi, who was a little yin and yang, wouldn't be shy in her pocket

 "you. . . . . Fart, my mother's money can bury you alive. Xia Baichi was furious, rushed out of the box, pointed at Long Chen's box and cursed.

 The dignified princess of a country actually exploded in public, making everyone look weird and look at each other.

 Xia Changfeng's face turned black, and he quickly pulled Xia Baichi back, who was like a shrew scolding the street. This time Xia Baichi left the entire face of the Daxia Kingdom in the Fengming Empire.

 The atmosphere of the scene was a bit weird, and the originally high atmosphere was diluted a lot. This was not conducive to the auction. Yao Niqian hurriedly said: " The crown prince Longchen bid two million, is there a higher price than this?

 Two million once.

 Two million. . . . . "

 Seeing that Yao Niqian started counting down, Long Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief and deceived this idiot again no matter what.

 "two million three. . . . . "

 "three million"

 Just when Yao Niqian was about to shout for the third time, a soft voice came tepidly from a box.

 Long Chen's face changed, and he looked up at the box, which, if he remembered correctly, was the box where Yinghou was.

 He is neither a Danshu nor a merchant and is unlikely to know the true value of Melting Star Grass.

 What's more, the two million produced by Long Chen can be regarded as a high price. Although Molten Star Grass is rare, it can still be collected as long as there is time.

 If it weren't for Long Chen's urgent need for it, he wouldn't have spent this price to make people take advantage of him. But now Yinghou has paid three million, which is almost double the original value.

 Although there is no low price at the auction, the price is really much higher. The most important thing is that this thing is useless to Yinghou.

 "Long Chen's eyes were brushed with a sharp blow. This hero is more difficult to deal with than he imagined. He underestimated the three top powers of this empire. No wonder he can be as famous as his father and see through his calculations at a glance".

 "three hundred and one hundred thousand"

 Long Chen faintly shouted out the price, and now the only ones bidding are him and Yinghou, who can only fight to the end unless he gives up.

 "Haha, this melted star grass is indeed of some use to me, but my nephew wants it, and I am too embarrassed to argue, so that you will be " Yinghou. The soft voice slowly came.

 Long Chen's heart is filled with anger. This hero is definitely a hero who kills people without seeing blood. It's too dark.

 "four million"

 Sure enough, after Yinghou finished speaking, Xia Baichi over there suddenly woke up and gloated about the price.

 Long Chen's face turned a little black, and Fatty Yu and others also looked ugly. They also saw that Long Chen was given a warning by Yinghou.

 "I dare not be my nephew. What kind of person do you think my father is? "Guarding the border wasteland, serving the country and the people, being chivalrous and courageous, with strong bones. What I have in my bones is my father's upright blood. I really can't bear the title of Lord Yinghou"

 Long Chen didn't want to say this at first, but he was fooled by Yinghou. He made a small move and immediately exposed his Achilles' heel. His angry Long Chen's lungs were about to explode. If he didn't say anything, he felt that he was too cowardly.

 Long Chen's words plunged the originally noisy auction house into a dead silence. Only the echo of Long Chen's words stirred up back and forth.

 "Everyone in the Fengming Empire's face has changed. Long Chen is **/beating Yinghou naked in the face. He is too brave!".

 You must know that Yinghou is a pillar-level figure in the empire. Even the Queen Mother and the Crown Prince must treat him with courtesy. Even if Long Tianxiao comes in person, he will not be so rude.

 Although there is no curse on the surface in Long Chen's words just now, as long as the mind is not confused, you will know that Long Chen is secretly cursing Yinghou and is a despicable villain.

 "Haha, young people are impatient and impatient. My nephew needs to practice more. He can't calm down a little thing, which is not conducive to your growth. "

 What everyone didn't expect was that the high-powered Lord Yinghou had no sign of anger at all, just a faint smile.

 Many people can't help but sigh secretly in their hearts. They are worthy of being one of Fengming's top powers. No one can match this magnanimity.

 "Four million, Long Chen, are you shy in your pocket? Haha " At this time, Xia Baichi's laughter came like a fly.

 Xia Baichi was not a fool either. After a small bidding by Yinghou, everyone could see that Long Chen valued this melting star grass.

 After suffering such a big loss before, how could Xia Baichi give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

 Long Chen took a deep breath. The more he was afraid of, the more he became. Now Xia Baichi hates him to the core. If he wants to get the melting star grass, he must prepare for heavy bleeding.

 "five million " Longchen said lightly.

 There was an uproar in the audience. It seemed that Long Chen was determined to win this melting star grass, otherwise he would never pay this sky-high price.

 "10 million"

 What made everyone's hearts beat wildly was that Xia Baichi was actually even more ruthless and suddenly doubled the price.

 "Long Chen nodded, now he is empty of wisdom and has no room to use it. Who made his weaknesses exposed by Yinghou?".

 He didn't even understand why Yinghou would deliberately target himself. Could it be that the hands and feet on his body were what he did?

 But now is not the time to think about these, the molten star grass in front of you must get it, his time is too tight to allow him to miss it.

 And at this time, even if Long Chen bows his head, with Xia Baichi's idiot character, he can only humiliate himself, without any effect.

 "fifteen million" Longchen shouted.

 "18 million"

 After Long Chen called out, Xia Baichi immediately bid. She had fallen into madness. She didn't care about money. She only knew now that as long as Long Chen wanted it, she would never let him get it.

 "20 million"

 "Long Chen finally shouted out the price. Everyone in the audience was about to jump out of their hearts. That's not just shouting. That's money. This price has exceeded ten times its own price. Even if it's a fight, this price is too expensive!".

 "If you shout again, I promise that the melted star grass will be yours. " After Long Chen shouted this price, he felt calm and said lightly.

 His elixir was mortgaged in Huayun Pavilion and received a credit limit of 20 million, that is, he could have a loan of 20 million in Huayun Pavilion.

 So when this loan runs out, he's calm, and if Xia Baichi continues to shout, he can only give her the molten star grass.

 However, he made up his mind that if Xia Baichi dared to bid again, he wouldn't mind, and he would kill someone once to cross the goods.

 "Baichi, this is enough to make him bleed heavily. Stop shouting. The price is ten times. You have already taken revenge. " Xia Changfeng hurriedly pulled Xia Baichi. I was afraid that she would be excited. In order to breathe, he really spent more than 20 million. Buy something useless.

 "Yes, Baichi, forget it. Now Longchen has been defeated miserably, and you can be regarded as angry. The eldest prince Chu Yang also smiled and persuaded.

 Xia Baichi nodded. This time she bought the melting star grass at ten times the price. She also breathed a sigh of relief. This melting star grass was really useless to her, and it was more than 20 million, after all, it is not a small amount, and she is also a little reluctant to part with it.

 "Humph, I just think I have pity on you, a pariah, and this kind of garbage herbal medicine counts as yours "

 In the end, Long Chen successfully bid for ten melted star grasses at a high price of 20 million. Although he felt a little distressed, Long Chen was relieved. Killing people to get more goods is not a last resort and must not be done.

 After this twist and turn, the subsequent bids also gradually became furious, and prices began to climb steadily.

 Just after two rounds of bidding, a secret door in Longchen's box was opened and one person walked in.
