Chapter 5922
5922 Storage ring
The hall was filled with gasps-there weren’t even storage bags on Sky Class Island, let alone storage rings. The storage bag Lin Yi just got was already a very valuable item, and this ring was a thousand times more valuable than his.
Huang Wen Jing paused for a moment, and a look of satisfaction flashed in her eyes. This was the effect that she wanted for the first auction. As long as the atmosphere was stirred up, the subsequent auctions would definitely be much smoother.
“The starting price of this storage ring is ten million spiritual jade pieces. Each bid must be at least five hundred thousand spiritual jade pieces higher than the previous bid. Now, may the interested friends bid boldly!” Huang Wen Jing’s words were not provocative, but those who heard it could not help but bid. They had a feeling that they would miss it if they did not bid.
“Eleven million spirit Jade!” Someone in the hall immediately made a bid, and it was an additional one million spirit Jade.
More than 90% of the people present had no idea how much a storage ring was worth. However, even a fool would know that a ring with such a large storage space was definitely not something that could be bought with just 10 or 20 million spirit Jade.
If Lin Yi didn’t have the Jade space, he would’ve gotten the storage ring himself, even if he didn’t get the storage bag. As for now, he wasn’t interested at all!
He wasn’t interested in getting the ring, but he still needed to participate in the auction. He wanted to see how determined Qian Xiaodong and Yu Ziqing were to deal with him.
In just a few short breaths, the bidding price had broken through the twenty million spirit Jade mark with an unstoppable momentum, approaching the point of thirty million spirit Jade.
Lin Yi smiled as he placed his hand on the crystal ball,”Fifty million spirit Jade!”
His voice didn’t travel out. Instead, it turned into a bid and appeared on a projection in the hall. This bid immediately beat all the previous bids.
The hall fell silent. Fifty million wasn’t too high-it wasn’t much compared to the storage ring, but Lin Yi’s bid was almost double the original price-this made everyone freeze.
“Fifty million spirit Jade! The distinguished guest in room five has bid fifty million … Sixty million spirit Jade!” Before Huang Wen Jing could finish her sentence, she immediately raised her voice and turned to the direction of the fourth box.”The distinguished guest in box four has bid sixty million spiritual Jade. That’s the highest bid so far!”
Lin Yi smiled faintly-Qian Xiaodong had made his move. Let’s see how much he wanted to snipe Lin Yi!
“A hundred million spiritual jades!” Lin Yi wasn’t in the mood to test the money’s bottom line bit by bit-he raised the bid by forty million right away.
The storage ring wasn’t of much use to Lin Yi, but he could give it to someone else if he got it. After all, he only had one Jade space, and it was much more convenient to have a storage ring.
” 100 million spiritual Jade! “The guest in room five immediately raised the bid to 100 million spiritual Jade. I want to say that there’s no loss in bidding for it at this price, because this kind of storage ring has been passed down from ancient times. It’s not something that can be obtained easily … 150 million! Box four has bid 150 million spirit Jade!” Huang Wen Jing did not expect the first round to be so popular. Although the storage ring was a good item, the bidding was too outrageous.
The starting price of 10 million was indeed set at a very low price. This was also a decision made to hype up the atmosphere of the auction. Now, it seemed that the effect was really good. At least, this kind of hot bidding was really rare.
Huang Wen Jing initially wanted to take the time to explain more about the storage ring’s background, but it seemed like there was no need for that anymore. So, she decided to host the auction with a peace of mind.
In room four, uncle li frowned and reminded,””Young city Lord, isn’t this increase a little too big? Even if we have enough spiritual jades, we can’t waste them on battle energy, right? After all, this isn’t our target. ”
“Don’t worry, uncle Li, I’ll stop after I raise the price one more time. That idiot Lin Yi will think that I’m fighting him at all costs. I’ll stop right after I raise the price one last time and let him buy his own storage ring to play with,”Qian Xiaodong said with a dark smile.
The storage ring was indeed a good item, but Qian Xiaodong did not care much about it. He was the young city Lord of torrent city. If he wanted the storage ring, he could ask his father to go to the mystic Sea region. There was a high chance that he could get it.
At the start, Qian Xiaodong really didn’t want Lin Yi to get a single item, but now he felt that it would be interesting if he could empty out all of Lin Yi’s spirit Jade at once and become a spectator from the second round onwards.
As soon as Qian Xiaodong finished, the projection showed Lin Yi’s new bid-two hundred million spirit Jade!
The entire Hall had quieted down a long time ago. It was not that the storage ring was not worth 200 million spiritual Jade, but that there was almost no one in the hall who could afford to take out 200 million spiritual Jade. Therefore, the competition had now shifted to the private rooms on the second floor.
However, with such a high bid, most of the private rooms on the second floor chose to wait and see. If the storage ring were to appear at the end of the auction, the price might be higher because by that time, all the items in the auction would have been settled. Those with extra spiritual jades would not mind spending more.
As for now, the first round of bidding had just begun, so everyone was still relatively cautious.
Except for Qian Xiaodong!
“Two hundred and fifty million spirit Jade!” Qian Xiaodong didn’t think too much about it and immediately announced his final bid.
Huang Wen Jing looked at the latest bid on the projection and announced,””Two hundred and fifty million spirit Jade! The guest in box four has bid two hundred and fifty million spirit Jade. Is there anyone who wants to make a higher bid?”
Two hundred and fifty million spirit Jade in the first auction was actually quite a good price. However, Huang Wen Jing was still not very satisfied with the result because the first round of bidding had been too quick. If the price had been raised bit by bit, she believed that the price would have been even higher, and the atmosphere would have been more lively. Unfortunately, there seemed to be some kind of conflict between number four and number five, and there was clearly a sense of fighting spirit in them.
“Two hundred and fifty million spirit Jade going once! Two hundred and fifty million spirit Jade going twice!” Although Huang Wen Jing felt that it was a pity, her professionalism allowed her to not waste any time. She immediately started the countdown.
Qian Xiaodong was taken aback-he’d expected Lin Yi to continue raising the price, so why did he stop here?
