Chapter 162: The Jiu Clan

The first auction item was finally finished bidding, a super sky-high price of a full one billion. Everyone was stunned.

Even the finale auction item of the first half of the auction couldn't be auctioned at a sky-high price of one billion, right? Simply crazy. The transaction price of ordinary auction items can be higher than the finale auction item. Has such a thing ever appeared in any auction?

The crowd was discussing, and there was a noisy sound under the auction stage.

The poor scattered cultivators who were watching the excitement outside the door were also emotionally excited, watching it with great pleasure, and were even more looking forward to the auction items in the auction next.

At this time, Long Xuan in the Room Five private room finally knew why the Marrow Cleansing Pill could be auctioned at such a high price. It was completely a coincidence. If either of these two hostile families, the Yao Clan and the Dan Clan, had not come today, this bottle of Marrow Cleansing Pill would not have been able to sell at a price of over one hundred million.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly. Wanting to research his alchemy technology, it was not such an easy thing. Let's refine the measurement units of this world first, and don't write anything like "appropriate amount" on the pill formula.

Shaoshao revealed a look of excitement. The first auction item exploded and sold at such a high sky-high price, which was far beyond her expectation. This was a huge performance that hit her head. Just by auctioning such an auction item, her performance had already reached the standard.

She excitedly placed the pill bottle on the jade plate and let the maid servant take it away to hand it to the buyer. However, before this maid servant took a step, she couldn't wait to take out the second auction item from the storage ring and place it on the auction table. It looked like she was really in a hurry to squeeze out all the time that could be used.

What she took out from the storage ring was a huge wine barrel. Seeing this huge wine barrel, Long Xuan couldn't help but be startled. It was actually his things again. It was really a coincidence.

Shaoshao couldn't wait to introduce: "This second auction item is spirit wine, but it is not just this one barrel. It is a total of thirty barrels bundled for auction."

"This wine is called Spirit Recovery Wine. Spirit Recovery Wine is a spirit wine that has never appeared in this world. It is undoubtedly a newly created wine formula."

"The effect of Spirit Recovery Wine is naturally Spirit Recovery, which can quickly restore the exhausted spiritual power of Marrow Cleansing Stage Gu cultivators, but the recovery effect is several times stronger than the best Spirit Recovery Pill on the market."

"It is not an exaggeration to say that the recovery effect of Spirit Recovery Wine is the first strongest in the Marrow Cleansing Stage."

"The title of the first wine in the Marrow Cleansing Stage, thirty barrels starting at one million spirit stones is not expensive, right?"

"Now Spirit Recovery Wine starts at one million spirit stones, and each increase must not be less than one hundred thousand spirit stones. Now start bidding!"

As soon as his voice fell, a fat man in the crowd shouted loudly: "I bid one million one hundred thousand spirit stones!"

Seeing this fat man, Long Xuan was immediately happy.

Yo, isn't this the fat man named Qian Duoduo? Why is he in this outfit again, and he even grew a beard.

Qian Duoduo's disguise can deceive others, but it is absolutely impossible to deceive him.

No matter how his appearance changes, the progress will not change. How could it deceive Long Xuan's eyes?

Long Xuan was surprised at this time. He didn't expect that this Qian Duoduo would play this trick again. As a dignified manager of a merchant association, he actually disguised himself as a customer to bid for things auctioned in his own auction house. This is really a strange story.

It is not the first time he has disguised himself as a customer. I didn't expect him to be addicted to disguising.

In the crowd, a group of Gu cultivators with the word "Wine" written on their clothes sniffed their noses together, revealing looks of surprise in their eyes.

"Good wine, I didn't expect that coming to this small region, I could still see such top-grade fine wine. This wine is not inferior to the best wine of my Jiu Clan!"

Jiu Kang's throat moved, revealing a look of drooling.

The Jiu Clan is a large wine-brewing clan and also a large Wine Gu refining clan. There are countless wine formulas in the clan, and countless peerless fine wines are treasured.

Every Jiu Clan Gu cultivator loves wine like their life.

Others will not spend a lot of money to buy wine for the sake of cravings, but Jiu Clan Gu cultivators will often spend a lot of money for a mouthful of good wine.

Jiu Clan Gu cultivators are best at tasting wine. Just by sniffing the wine fragrance, Jiu Kang immediately noticed the extraordinary nature of this wine, so his eyes shone, preparing to take this wine down at all costs.

An old Jiu Clan man looked at the wine barrel on the auction table with burning eyes and said excitedly: "It is indeed good wine. I originally thought that my Jiu Clan was the family best at brewing wine, and the wine outside was all garbage."

"However, after coming out this time, I discovered that I underestimated the people of the world. There is good wine outside. This wine is enough to rank in the forefront even among all the fine wines of my clan."

"This wine is another kind of wine-brewing craft, using wine-brewing technology that my clan doesn't know. It is no exaggeration to say that this wine-brewing technology is definitely not inferior to my Jiu Clan's wine-brewing technology, and it is even possible to exceed it."

"I want to research the brewing technology of this wine. None of you are allowed to snatch it from me."

A cute-looking Jiu Clan girl licked her lips and said greedily: "Impossible, I have refined the Wine King Gu. The more types of fine wine the Wine King Gu swallows, the stronger it will be."

"I traveled this time just to collect fine wines from all over the world."

"This wine is a wine species that has never appeared in this world. Once missed, it is very likely that it will never be found again. How can I let it go?"

"So I'm sorry! I am determined to get this wine!"

A Jiu Clan boy also suddenly said at this time: "None of you are allowed to snatch it from me! I want to use this kind of wine to refine Wine Gu. I will be anxious with whoever snatches it from me!"

"I am the youngest, you all let me!"

Seeing that the price had been increased to four million spirit stones at this time, although the price was very high, thinking that there were thirty such large wine barrels, this price was acceptable, so he hurriedly shouted: "I bid four million spirit stones!"

"You are young, so you have reason? It doesn't work. I bid five million spirit stones!" That Jiu Clan girl then bid.

That old Jiu Clan man followed closely: "I bid six million spirit stones!"

"It was clearly me who saw it first!" Jiu Kang also shouted loudly at this time: "I bid seven million spirit stones!"

With this group of people joining the bidding, the price instantly rose to the sky-high price of seven million spirit stones.

Everyone was shocked, and they all looked at this side, wanting to see where these lunatics came from, adding prices so rapidly, and their own people could fight with their own people.

Seeing that the word "Wine" was written on the clothes of these four people, everyone understood in their hearts.

If it was this family, then it was not strange.

The Jiu Clan is a large wine-brewing clan. Everyone is an alcoholic, loving good wine like their life. In order to taste fine wine they haven't drunk, they can do anything.

Once they encounter peerless fine wine, it is like a lecher seeing a peerless beauty, and they are really willing to spend a lot of money to buy it.

Even if an outsider saw this wine today, they would know it was not ordinary wine. It is not strange that they can make the Jiu Clan people so crazy.

Seeing a group of Jiu Clan Gu cultivators joining the bidding, and even the internal competition was fierce, directly raising the price to seven million spirit stones, Qian Duoduo was completely numb.

Why is his luck so bad? Every time he disguises himself as a customer, he will encounter difficult opponents, leading to a big bleeding once.

The Jiu Clan is in a very distant region. He had never seen Jiu Clan people before. As a result, they happened to appear today. They didn't come early or late, but happened to come today. Isn't this playing with him!

Once the Jiu Clan people are here today, the trouble will be big.

Once this group of people sees good wine, they are simply a group of lunatics. Even if they go bankrupt, they must buy the good wine.

Once the Spirit Recovery Wine is targeted by this group of lunatics, the price will definitely be hyped to the sky. Don't even think about taking the Spirit Recovery Wine down without a big bleeding once.

No, he might not even have the chance to bleed heavily. This group of lunatics dares to bid any high price when they see good wine, even if the price is far higher than the value. Can he compete with them?

But until the last moment, he obviously would not give up easily. He raised his hand tremblingly and said with a hard scalp: "I bid seven million one hundred thousand spirit stones!"

Spending seven million one hundred thousand spirit stones to buy wine is definitely not worth it, but spending seven million one hundred thousand spirit stones to refine top-grade Gu worms is still worth it, so he must increase the price.

The four people turned their heads to look at him together, and then shouted in unison:

"I bid eight million spirit stones!"

"I bid nine million spirit stones!"

"I bid ten million spirit stones!"

"I bid eleven million spirit stones!"

The price instantly broke the ten million mark.

Good fellow, they increased the price by one million by one million. This four-person group shouted once and increased by four million. Qian Duoduo's head was big.

And this was still their internal competition, without putting others in their eyes at all. It was simply arrogant.

"I bid eleven million one hundred thousand spirit stones!" Qian Duoduo gritted his teeth and said.

At this time, the price was seriously high. If it weren't for the fact that he happened to have a top-grade Wine Worm in his hand, and he could have an extra top-grade Gu worm as long as he took this wine down, he would never have bid such a high price no matter what.

The Jiu Clan four-person group looked at each other. Obviously, they didn't expect that there would be someone who loved wine more than money than their Jiu Clan Gu cultivators.

But it was obviously impossible to scare away the Jiu Clan Gu cultivators who loved wine like their lives with just over ten million spirit stones.

Jiu Kang smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that people in this poor region of the Western Lands could be so rich. We have traveled too long, and the spirit stones on our bodies only go out and don't come in. If we really disregard everything to take this wine down, one of us will definitely have to go begging."

"I see that this wine is bundled for auction in thirty barrels, enough for the four of us to split. How about the four of us each pay three million spirit stones and split this wine equally?"

The other three nodded together.

"That's fine."

"I have the same intention!"

"Then let's join forces to buy this wine."

The other three said in unison.

Seeing that the three teammates had already agreed, Jiu Kang revealed a smile and immediately raised his hand and shouted: "I bid twelve million spirit stones! Is there anyone higher!"

As soon as this price came out, the whole venue was in an uproar.

Using twelve million spirit stones to buy thirty barrels of wine, this is simply crazy in everyone's eyes.

What kind of wine can be so expensive?

Isn't it just Spirit Recovery? Is it necessary to be so crazy?

Today's auction is really getting more and more interesting. First, someone used one billion to buy the Marrow Cleansing Pill that was far from worth it, and then someone was willing to spend twelve million to buy spirit wine whose price was far higher than the value.

It is worthy of being called the highest-standard auction in the Western Lands in a thousand years. Only the first two auction items can be auctioned at such an outrageous price. In the end, how high the transaction amount of the whole auction will be, everyone dare not imagine.

Qian Duoduo's face became ugly. Twelve million spirit stones! Twelve million spirit stones! This group of Jiu Clan Gu cultivators really dared to bid any high price for good wine. They are simply a group of lunatics.

This price is already seriously high. Although he can still bid thirteen million, he is a businessman, paying attention to value for money, and is unwilling to do business with heavy losses. Who is willing to accompany them to be crazy?

And these wines are still too few, unable to guarantee one hundred percent that they can refine Wine Gu. Even if they can refine Wine Gu, it is the weakest top-grade Gu worm. The gambling nature is high and the return is low. He is absolutely unwilling to invest more spirit stones in it.

Forget it, forget it. The Wine Gu refined with single wine is the weakest top-grade Gu worm. Spending the sky-high price of eleven million is already the limit. Never spend a higher price to be a big head.

Moreover, even if he bids twenty million, this group of lunatics will probably continue to follow the price. How can he compete with a group of wine lunatics?

The general trend has gone. It seems that this wine is destined to have no fate with him, so he can't force it.

Qian Duoduo sighed heavily, with a look of loneliness on his face, and finally turned and left the auction floor...
