Chapter 746.5- New record part 2
While Commander Wen was thinking, the auction began.
“Base price, 4 million level three crystals!”
Wa—
The shock nearly raised the roof of the hall.
Although most people knew that the base price wouldn’t be low, but they didn’t expect it to be so high.
Moreover, they couldn’t use normal trading ratios to judge these batches of potions as the added value was much more.
What people cared most about was the convenience. A year had passed, and even the knowledgeable four zones had not seen so many potions at once. To a super faction, as long as they took it, they would get much stronger. It would cause a series of effects, and they would get many more benefits.
The next thing would be that they were bidding using depreciating currency. The four and five-star potions were being sold for level three crystals, which was rare. Usually, no one would do that.
The few resistance zone leaders frowned. They evaluated the price and knew that it was very reasonable. The problem was that they couldn’t take out so many level-three crystals.
But they weren’t stubborn people and had many solutions.
The moment the base price was announced, people started to discuss it, but no one made a bid. After a minute, another faction boss in the third row raised his hand and bid 4 million.
As if he had opened Pandora’s box, bids started to jump out like little demons. Actually, most people were just here for the fun. They knew that before the few leaders spoke, it wasn’t serious.
But even then, the price reached 4.3 million in a short few minutes.
“4.5 million, I want it!”
Zhang Hetai waved, and everyone became silent. Be it those who were adding to the fun or those who really wanted the potions, no one spoke. They knew that the real battle had begun.
“4.6m.” Mu Xinfei followed up.
Zhang Hetai’s overbearing attitude could work for others, but it was useless to the few leaders.
“4.7!” Wen Zhong thought about it and made a bid. He then stared at Ye Zhongming. Although he guessed Ye Zhongming’s thoughts, it was an open scam, and he had no choice but to jump in. That didn’t feel good.
“Let’s make it quick, 5 million!”
Zhang Hetai wore a jacket, but this bidding made him feel hot. He tossed it to his deputy. He didn’t look in front and looked towards the other tables.
This price caused a moment of silence as it was close to their ideal price.
“It is actually a good thing for such an item to appear on our internal auction.”
Ji Ruiguang’s words broke the silence. The few leaders heard it and stopped bidding. They understood what this C Zone boss meant.
They were on the same side, and the auctioneer definitely wasn’t from the resistance zone. If they increased the bid, wouldn’t it benefit this outsider?
Zhang Hetai and Mu Xinfei kept silent, knowing that Ji Ruiguang would give them a solution to accept. Actually, the two of them knew that they were going to use this price to take these potions and split them.
This was the best solution for the strongest C Zone, as they could obtain some potions while ensuring they remained the strongest.
Although the other zones weren’t happy, they were unwilling to continue bidding. They could accept the possibility of getting potions at a cheaper price while maintaining the current status.
Ji Ruiguang was cheating.
Ye Zhongming looked calmly at Wen Zhong.
Wen Zhong scoffed and didn’t do anything.
“I will help you modify a set.”
“Two.”
“Okay, but that thing has a success rate. You can watch from the side when I am doing it.”
“Deal.”
The two of them quickly discussed something others couldn’t understand. When everyone thought the bidding stopped at 5mil, he raised his hand.
“5.5m.”
Oh—
Someone exclaimed. Everyone heard Ji Ruiguang’s words; the few zones should have agreed; why did…. T Zone jump out?
Mu Xinfei, Zhang Hetai, and Ji Ruiguang turned to Wen Zhong.
What was he doing?
“If one of you can give a higher price, I will agree with Commander Ji. If not, this batch of potions is mine.”
Ji Ruiguang’s eyes turned red, and he was enraged.
“5.8.” This C Zone boss bid for the first and last time today.
Wen Zhong shrugged toward Ye Zhongming, telling him that he couldn’t dodge his trap, but he could only make use of him until this point.
Ye Zhongming considered the 5.8m price. Although it was less than he expected, he could accept it.
Finally, Ye Zhongming’s special item was sold for 5.8m!
Of course, Ji Ruiguang wouldn’t take it all, and the four zones would split it. But how they would split it depended. Ji Ruiguang paid first, but Ye Zhongming would pass the potions to Wen Zhong. This could prevent Ji Ruiguang from taking it all and ensure that they were in charge. At that time, Ye Zhongming wouldn’t believe that they would split it evenly with the other two zones.
This was his trap. While earning money, he wanted to increase the conflict of the zones and make them hate each other!
This would make his life more interesting and make T Zone work with him instead of worrying about them betraying him one day.
Wen Zhong saw the potions and didn’t initially realize what Ye Zhongming planned. But once the auction started, he realized it all, which was why he respected and helped him.
He knew that T Zone and Cloud Peak’s relationship would seem unbreakable to others after this.
After the peak, the auctioneer gave everyone time to digest before saying slowly.
“This will be the final item and the true auction. The final three items will not be open bids but secret bids.”
