Shock! The Spell Is In English! - Chapter 490

If these Chamber of Commerce clans were not careful, they might be wiped out by these forces and then all of their money would be taken away. Therefore, the clans were very eager for military power. They were very bold and willing to spend money on some things that could increase the strength of their clan’s disciples. Only when they increased the strength of their clan’s disciples would they be able to increase their own safety. Right now, there was nothing more important than their own safety.



Because these Chamber of Commerce clans had just arrived at their level for a short period of time, their own genes had not been optimized. This was the reason why they did not go with the clans with high talent. This resulted in their own talent not being high. They needed more cultivation materials. Therefore, some things that could increase their cultivation were very desirable to them. These things were more objective and needed by them.



The Leiluo clan and the Ice clan were very interested in this jade bed. They planned to auction it off. Besides the Jade Bed, they were also interested in perfect grade elixirs, they planned to auction off these two things as soon as possible. After all, there was nothing for the Chamber of Commerce clan except money.



Their money was more than ten portions. To them, whether it was the perfect grade medicine or the Jade Bed, they were all very important things. But to them, the money of the small families in Guangshi City was just a consumption. It was not worth mentioning at all, even those families from Green Kingdom’s capital did not care about the money that was only around 10 million gold coins. To them, their money was much more than theirs.



“5 million gold coins.”



Chief Leiluo was the first to shout out his price. When the people below the stage heard that Chief Leiluo had directly raised the price to 5 million gold coins, they were immediately shocked. How could this be… He had directly eliminated more than half of the families in the auction before the auction had even started.



Chief Leiluo looked at the large expanse of light below the stage. He looked at the family heads in Guangshi City with disdain. In his eyes, these were all country bumpkins. Even in Guangshi City, they couldn’t get rid of the fact that they were country bumpkins. They had never seen what money was, so they naturally didn’t understand Clan Leader Leiluo’s thoughts.



In his eyes, competing with these people in the daily auction, even for a Jade Bed, was a disgrace to him. In his eyes, these clans’ money was only 1 million or 2 million. It was simply not enough to compete with him, so he directly raised the price to 5 million and then slowly raised it again. 5 million gold coins was definitely too expensive for the people in Guangshi City alone. They could not afford it at all.



As expected, just like what Patriarch Leiluo thought, once 5 million gold coins were shouted out, the people below the stage immediately shut their mouths. Only some of the larger families were still confident that they could continue to follow… 5 million gold coins was definitely too much for the people in Guangshi City and could not be taken out at all.



Therefore, those who originally had 1 million to 2 million gold coins and wanted to see if they could win the auction shut their mouths obediently. They knew that if they were to fight with the head of the Leiluo clan and follow the price, it would be a disgrace to themselves.

When the seller of the Jade Bed saw that the head of the Leiluo clan had directly raised the price of the Jade Bed to 5 million gold coins, he nodded his head in satisfaction. Because in his mind, the price of the Jade Bed should be around 10 million gold coins.



Although he wasn’t very accurate in guessing how many gold coins the price of the Jade Bed would be, through some indirect probing, and then through many inquiries, he also knew that the price of the Jade Bed was very high.



As for why the Jade Bed was being auctioned in Guangshi City, that was because if he brought the Jade Bed to the capital, it was very likely that he would be robbed and lose the Jade Bed. This thing was too big, and his space really couldn’t hold it. Therefore, he could only bring it to Guangshi City. When he got the Jade Bed, it would be auctioned at the nearest city.



Although he was very unhappy with the owner of the Jade Bed being auctioned on Guangshi City, there was nothing he could do. If he met bandits on the way to Green Kingdom’s capital, then he would have no money at all. He really had no choice but to come to Guangshi City to auction.



However, he did not expect that there would be people from Green Kingdom’s capital coming to this Guangshi City to see things in person during the auction today. This could be considered a stroke of good luck. He had originally hoped to sell it for 7 or 8 million gold coins, but he felt that this time, it would be at least 10 million gold coins. This meant that the owner of the Jade Bed felt that he had made a huge profit.



The etiquette lady who was standing on the stage was indeed a little surprised when she heard that Chief Leiluo had directly raised the price to 5 million gold coins. This was just the beginning. Could it be that it was the same as the previous competition of the Thunder Hammer, even exceeding the standard of 10 million gold coins? If that was the case, then her commission today could at least exceed 30,000 gold coins. This was more than the sum of all her commissions from the previous year.



The etiquette lady who came to this auction today felt that she had come to the right place. Because the etiquette lady had several people who took turns in the auction, everyone gathered together to auction something, it all depended on luck. Sometimes, it would take some time to accumulate 30,000 gold coins with an auction price of only 8 million gold coins. However, it was really a stroke of good luck today. The etiquette lady earned at least a year’s worth of working.



“5.5 million gold coins.”



The patriarch of a relatively large family in Guangshi City called out his price. However, this time, he was only testing whether Patriarch Leiluo would continue to strengthen it. After all, although his family had money in Guangshi City…



However, compared to the wealthy people of the Green Kingdom’s capital, his clan was still quite lacking. However, as a clan leader, he wanted to auction off this Jade Bed and give it to his son. In this way, his son’s cultivation would increase greatly due to the temporary growth of Guangshi City, resulting in an increase in his strength. It was very likely that some of the more powerful teachers in the school would take a fancy to him and become a personal disciple.



If he became the personal disciple of the teachers in the school, then his family’s strength would also increase correspondingly. Therefore, he now wanted to give the Jade Bed to his son.
