Chapter 488: The Auction Continued
“13 million gold coins.”
Chief Raymond announced the price in his mind. 13 million gold coins was a painful price for him. According to his estimation, 15 million gold coins was his final price. If the chief of the Burning followed… Then he could only give up on the Thunder Hammer.
In the Green Kingdom, the Raymond family was already slightly weaker than the Burning family. Therefore, the Burning family naturally had more funds than the Raymond family.
This time, in order to lower the price, Raymond took the Thunder Hammer to disgust the Burning patriarch. However, he didn’t expect the Burning patriarch to directly counter him. He didn’t expect this. Now, the leader of the Raymond clan didn’t dare to tease the leader of the Burning clan anymore. After all, the leader of the Burning clan didn’t have as much desire for the Thunder Hammer as he did.
In fact, obtaining the Thunder Hammer wasn’t very important to the Burning family. However, to the Raymond family, obtaining the Thunder Hammer was a very important matter. As long as they obtained the Thunder Hammer, the forging techniques of the Raymond family would be able to rise to another level.
Moreover, they would be able to slowly develop and surpass the Burning family. Now, for the entire Raymond family… The Thunder Hammer had to be obtained. The Thunder Hammer had to be obtained by his family.
Therefore, the price of the Thunder Hammer had to be raised by 1 million gold coins. The total price would be around 13 million gold coins… Otherwise, if he continued to raise the price by more than 10,000 gold coins, it would be around 12,010,000 gold coins. This method would only infuriate the Burning clan leader.
After the chief of the Burning clan saw the chief of the Raymond clan raise the price to 13,000,000 gold coins, he coldly laughed. He didn’t expect that the chief of the Raymond clan would be timid.
If he dared to raise the price by another 10,000 gold coins, this lowest price would disgust him… In the mind of the Burning clan’s chief, the chief of the Raymond clan’s calculation was only so-so. If he raised the price to around 12,000,000 gold coins, then the role of the chief of the Burning clan wouldn’t dare to compete with the chief of the Burning clan himself. It was indeed a little awkward.
However, the head of the Burning clan thought that the head of the Thunder Hammer was the same. This compromise was completely understandable. The Burning family actually didn’t have a high desire for the Thunder Hammer. However, at the same time, the Raymond family’s desire for the Thunder Hammer was high. This made the price of the Thunder Hammer rise a lot in the Raymond family’s eyes. However, the money of the Raymond family was earned by themselves. They couldn’t spend money unnecessarily.
Now, the Raymond family was not as rich as the Burning family, and their desire for the Thunder Hammer was even higher. This caused the Raymond family to be in a weak position. However, they did not expect that the old man, the patriarch of the Raymond family, would dare to provoke the patriarch of the Burning family, causing them to waste 3 million gold coins to bid for the Thunder Hammer.
This could only be said that he deserved it… If the leader of the Raymond family didn’t provoke the leader of the Burning family, then the leader of the Burning family wouldn’t raise the price to 12 million gold coins. The leader of the Raymond clan would naturally raise the price to 10 million gold coins he would give the Thunder Hammer to the Raymond family for about 10 million gold coins.
This time, the Raymond family raised the price by 3 million gold coins. They deserved it. There was nothing they could do about it. Therefore, the leader of the Raymond family was regretful for what he did just now. However, it had already happened… Naturally, it was impossible to reverse the situation.
The clan leader of the Raymond clan raised the price to 13 million gold coins. After that, he sat on his own seat. Then, he looked at the clan leader of the Burning clan from the corner of his eyes.
This time, he didn’t intend to raise the price anymore, he sat alone on his seat and drank the tea in a teacup. Obviously, he didn’t want to raise the price anymore.
This action of the Burning clan leader was true. This made the clan leader of the Raymond clan feel a little relieved. If the Burning chief continued to raise the price, the Raymond family would feel extremely uncomfortable.
However, because the Raymond family had a strong desire for the Thunder Hammer, they couldn’t stop raising the price. This caused the Burning family to have a strong restraining effect on the Raymond family, but this…
This consequence was caused by the Raymond family leader himself. Without the previous events, the Thunder Hammer would have been auctioned off by the Raymond family long ago.
When the audience saw that the price of the Thunder Hammer was raised to about 13 million, they were really surprised. They were not surprised that the leader of the Raymond family was so curious this time and raised the price of the Thunder Hammer to 13 million gold coins.
This time, the leader of the Raymond family actually changed his strategy. From the beginning, he had only raised the price by 10,000 gold coins, which was the lowest price. However, this time, the price of the Thunder Hammer was raised to 13 million gold coins.
The price had increased by 1 million gold coins. This meant that the Raymond family was a little weak and did not dare to go up against the Burning clan. This surprised everyone. They did not expect Chief Raymond to admit defeat at the last minute.
Everyone looked at Chief Burning and saw that he did not intend to raise the price. This meant that the final price of the Thunder Hammer should be around 13 million gold coins. 13 million gold coins…
This was not 13 million copper coins, which was a very cheap currency. This was 13 million gold coins, 13 million gold coins. It could buy the inheritance of many big furniture families in Guangshi City.
For many families… Even if all the family’s belongings were auctioned off, the properties, restaurants, and other properties were auctioned off, and they might not even be able to gather 10 million gold coins. However, the Burning family and the Raymond family each had their own… They could purchase the auction items for around 13 million gold coins. This meant that the two families’ wealth should be around 100 million gold coins.
100 million gold coins! This was a wealth of around 100 million gold coins. If this 100 million gold coins were placed in Guangshi City, it would be able to buy all the family’s wealth in Guangshi City. It seemed that the families in Green Kingdom’s capital city were richer than the families in Guangshi City. There was no way to compare.
Patriarch Thunder Hammer watched the price of the Thunder Hammer being auctioned off for 13 million gold coins. He stood up happily. 13 million gold coins was already a very high price for the people’s mind. Although the Thunder Hammer family was a rich family in the past and their inheritance was around 100 million gold coins, they could no longer afford to fork out tens of thousands of gold coins due to the decline of the Thunder Hammer family. Now with this 10 million gold coins, their family could make a comeback and re-train geniuses to forge weapons.
Although the Thunder Hammer family was now in a 10% decline, the Thunder Hammer family’s physique was very suitable to forge weapons.
Their strength was greater than ordinary families, and their understanding of weapons was more profound. This made them naturally suitable to forge weapons. As long as they had more money to keep practicing… They could create a new set of calligraphy to forge weapons and remake the quality of their home. This way, the Thunder Hammer family would have a chance to make a comeback.
The etiquette lady walked to the auction and dropped the hammer in her hand. This meant that 13 million gold coins had been auctioned off by the Raymond family for the Thunder Hammer.
