Of course, this was just a thought. He knew very well how much Ye Lengan liked this Seven Star Flower. In order to bid for the Seven Star Flower, she had already made a lot of preparations. If the Seven Star Flower was destroyed, she would definitely be very unhappy.
In another private room, Zhongyu Yiran also sat up straight. Since the start of the auction, she hadn’t raised her paddle once. She had been waiting for the Seven Star Flower all night. Now that it had finally appeared, she was naturally prepared. She didn’t know how many people present were interested in the Seven Star Flower, but she knew that no matter what, she had to obtain it today.
Ye Min t er entrusted her to bid for the Seven Star Flower this time. As long as she could befriend Ye Min’er, her weak body would be saved. The Ye family was a famous alchemy family in the Hidden World. As long as she could obtain the Ye family’s pills, her health would be saved.
Therefore, no matter what, she had to get the Seven Star Flower today.
What she was most worried about now was that Ye Lengan!s target was also the Seven Star Flower. If that was really the case, then she wasn’t confident that she could outbid Ye Lengan. Because Ye Lengan had Huangfu Ruiling behind her.
On the auction stage, the auctioneer also began to introduce, “Ladies and gentlemen, you must find it strange that our auction house is auctioning a plant today, right? This is not an ordinary plant, but a rare spiritual herb. Those who can attend our auction are likely to be well-traveled and well-informed; they naturally understand the preciousness of spiritual herbs. Our boss got this spirit plant by chance. It’s just that our boss doesn’t know much about these kinds of things. In order not to waste a heavenly treasure, he decided to auction it. Everyone, this is a rare opportunity. Don’t miss it! The starting price of this Seven Star Flower is 50 million USD. The auction begins now.”
“60 million!”
“Very good. Guest number eleven on the first floor has bid 60 million USD Is there any higher bid?”
The price suddenly soared by 10 million, but this was only the beginning.
“65 million!”
The bidding voices rang out one after another.
Ye Leng’an’s attention was focused on the auction, but she didn’t immediately bid. She was watching because she knew very well that the real competitors had not started bidding yet.
Zhongyu Yiran, who was in the private room on the second floor, was also paying attention to the auction.
Finally, she couldn’t help but call out, “100 million!”
As soon as this price was shouted out, many people stopped bidding. Obviously, such a high price had already exceeded the budgets of many people.
Moreover, although this Seven Star Flower was a precious spirit plant, if one didn’t need it for alchemy, then obtaining it would not have much practical value.
After that, only a few people continued to bid.
Zhongyu Yiran was no longer anxious and slowly raised the price. At the same time, she calmed down a lot, because up until now, Ye Lengan had not placed a bid. In that case, it was very likely that Ye Lengan had no intention of bidding for the Seven Star Flower.
However, although Ye Lengan!s medical skills were brilliant, she might not necessarily know alchemy. Not all doctors knew how to refine pills, or rather, most doctors did not know how to refine pills. One had to know that refining pills was not an ordinary thing. Not everyone could learn it. Aside from talent, the most important thing was inheritance. That was why the Ye family could become such a famous alchemy family in the Hidden World. It was the accumulation of generations that allowed them to achieve what they had today.
That was the accumulation of generations of the Ye Clan, which was why they had today’s achievements.
The price had already reached 320 million, and most of them had already stopped bidding. The highest bidder now was Zhongyu Yiran.
“Alright, now the guest in private room number five on the second floor has bid 320 million. Is there any higher bid?”
The auctioneer was still trying to motivate everyone to bid higher. However, even so, he knew in his heart that being able to bid this price was almost the limit.
After all, although the Seven Star Flower was precious, not everyone could use it. If one couldn’t use it, bidding for it would just be wasting money.
“320 million going once!”
“320 million going twice!”
Just as everyone thought that the deal was about to be closed, a clear voice interrupted the auctioneer.
“350 million.”
The bidder was none other than Ye Lengan. At this point, they had clearly entered the final stage of competition, so it was time for her to make a move, otherwise, the Seven Star Flower would really be auctioned off.
“Excellent, now the customer in room number one on the third floor has bid 350 million. Are there any higher bids?” The auctioneer raised his voice a few degrees, and there was a hint of excitement in his tone. “Everyone, this is a rare opportunity. Don’t miss it!”
He didn’t expect that just as they were about to finalize the deal, someone would raise the bid. What’s more, it went up by 300 million in one go. As expected, those who could attend this auction were all wealthy people! Of course, the higher the final transaction price, the better for him. One had to know, the final price was linked to his commission.
Unlike the auctioneer’s excitement, Zhongyu Yiran’s expression was gloomy, and her eyes were filled with chill. Initially, she was secretly glad that Ye Lengan didn’t compete with her for the Seven Star Flower. But now, it seemed that she had celebrated too early. Ye Lengan was not unwilling to compete, she had just waited until the final moment to bid.
Moreover, that kind of bidding clearly showed that Ye Lengan was determined to win. Right now, her heart was already beating like a drum. She did not know if she could outbid Ye Lengan.
However, even so, she did not intend to admit defeat just like that. She bid again. “351 million!”
Fortunately, in order to have a chance at the Seven Star Flower this time, she had mobilized almost all the capital she could use. Moreover, Ye Min t er had also transferred 200 million to her. Therefore, the maximum she could afford now was around 430 million.
However, if Huangfu Ruiling were to help Ye Lengan, her meager funds would be nowhere near enough. After all, Huangfu Ruiling had spent 100 million just to buy a bracelet earlier. So what she feared most now was Huangfu Ruiling interfering..
