NOVEL NEXT Chapter 103 Heavenly Contract
Xue Lingling and Xue Mengya were both shocked when they heard this.
Xue Lingling's eyes widened and she said, "Shen Lang, this is impossible. You know, the auction price is only 800 million spirit stones. Our Blood Sword Sect will not spend so much to buy a contract."
Xue Mengya also said: "Yes, Shen Lang, this is not a small amount."
The two looked at each other with hesitation in their eyes.
They are eager to get this rare opportunity, but they are worried about the consequences.
After a while, under Shen Lang's encouraging eyes, they finally nodded. Xue Lingling said: "Shen Lang, if it is possible, of course we want it. But..."
Shen Lang interrupted her and said, "As long as you want it, don't worry too much. I have everything."
Shen Lang shouted out the high price without hesitation, and his voice echoed loudly in the auction hall.
"One billion spirit stones!" Shen Lang's voice was firm and decisive.
Everyone was in an uproar instantly, and the entire auction hall seemed to explode.
"Is Shen Lang crazy? He shouted such a high price all of a sudden!" Someone couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Does he really think that the spirit stone was blown by the strong wind?" A burly man said in disbelief with his eyes widened.
"Hmph, I think he's just trying to be brave. Let's see how he ends up in the end!" A man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks taunted in a sinister way.
However, Shen Lang remained unmoved and continued to increase the price.
"Two billion spiritual stones!"
"1.4 billion spirit stones!"
The atmosphere at the scene became increasingly tense. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Shen Lang, some were surprised, some were jealous, and some were confused.
But Shen Lang still looked calm and had no intention of backing down.
After raising the price four or five times in a row, no one finally followed the price, and Shen Lang successfully won the contract.
But because there were not enough spiritual stones, Shen Lang decided to use the pills he had obtained from refining pills a while ago to make up for it.
"What? Use elixir to offset it? Can his elixir be worth so many spiritual stones?" Someone raised a question.
"Who knows what kind of elixir he is making? It's not something to fool people." Someone echoed from the side.
But some people said: "Maybe the elixir Shen Lang refined is really extraordinary, otherwise how could he have such confidence."
For a time, everyone was talking, full of speculations and discussions about Shen Lang's actions.
Facing everyone's doubts and comments, Shen Lang looked calm. He calmly took out bottles of pills from the storage ring.
The auctioneer looked at these elixirs carefully, with a trace of surprise in his eyes, and said loudly: "These elixirs are of high quality and extraordinary efficacy, enough to be worth the bidding price!"
When everyone heard this, they were amazed again.
"I didn't expect this person to have such superb alchemy skills and be able to refine such precious elixirs."
"Yes, it seems that we underestimated him before. Being able to come up with such a pill is no accident."
At this time, the atmosphere at the auction became more enthusiastic, and everyone's curiosity and attention towards Shen Lang reached a new height.
Shen Lang asked Xue Mengya to sign the contract, but Xue Mengya quickly waved her hand and refused, saying: "Shen Lang, this is impossible. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear the responsibility for such an important contract."
Shen Lang smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, we are all a family from now on, no matter who signs it, it will be the same."
After hearing this, Xue Mengya blushed on her face and lowered her head shyly.
At this time, Xue Lingling, who had been silent all this time, stood up and said, "Then let me sign it."
Shen Lang nodded.
Xue Lingling stepped forward, solemnly picked up the pen and signed her name.
Contract bidding ends.
The An family's lot had just arrived. Xue Mengya's eyes widened in curiosity. She leaned forward and stared closely at the items on the display table. She said, "Shen Lang, this An family's lot looks very mysterious. I have never seen it before." I’ve never been exposed to these.”
Shen Lang smiled slightly and explained patiently: "Mengya, you see, when every auction is almost over, it will be the turn of a big power like the An family to take out the auction items. This is for the finale, to create the final climax."
"Secondly, it is also because at this time, everyone's funds and energy are almost exhausted, so the atmosphere of the bidding will be relatively relaxed."
"Furthermore, not many people will really try their best to take pictures of Anjia's works. Most of them depend on their mood. After all, those who can persist to the end either have strong financial resources and don't care, or they just want to have fun. Furthermore, there may be something in it. There are several fakes mixed in.”
Xue Mengya listened with rapt attention and asked doubtfully: "Fake? Why would it be put up for auction?"
Shen Lang patted Xue Mengya's head gently and said, "This is the secret of the auction. Some fakes are extremely realistic, and it is difficult to tell whether they are genuine or not without careful identification."
"And even if it is a fake, it may have its own unique ornamental value or collection significance. For some experts, being able to tell the authenticity from the fake is also a kind of fun and challenge. Of course, it is not ruled out that some people may try their luck. You can get the real deal at a low price.”
Xue Lingling was also listening with interest.
Shen Lang's chat with them was not loud at all, but it was overheard by Zhou Kai who was not far away.
Zhou Kai was originally a grumpy and narrow-minded person. When he heard Shen Lang's words, an unknown fire suddenly surged in his heart.
Zhou Kai's face was gloomy, veins popped out on his forehead, his hands were tightly clenched into fists, and he could no longer hold back his temper, and strode towards Shen Lang and the others.
Walking in front of Shen Lang, Zhou Kai pointed at Shen Lang's nose, his eyes wide open, and questioned Shen Lang loudly: "Shen Lang, did you just say that there are fakes in the auction of the An family? Don't make false statements here and slander the reputation of the An family!"
Shen Lang was not in a hurry. He looked at Zhou Kai calmly, smiled slightly, and said: "Zhou Kai, I just had a few private exchanges with friends. Why are you so excited?"
Zhou Kai snorted coldly and said: "Huh! Private exchanges? Do you think I'm deaf? Who doesn't know the status of the An family in this auction industry? How dare you talk nonsense here and ruin the reputation of the An family? If you don't give an explanation today, this matter will never end!"
At this time, the people around began to whisper.
"This Zhou Kai has always had a hot temper. It seems that Shen Lang is going to be unlucky."
"But Shen Lang said that there are fakes in the An family. This is too bold."
Xue Lingling and Xue Mengya stood behind Shen Lang and pulled the corner of Shen Lang's clothes nervously.
Shen Lang ignored Zhou Kai's angry questioning and continued to talk to Xue Lingling and Xue Mengya calmly, as if Zhou Kai didn't exist.
Seeing Shen Lang ignoring him like this, Zhou Kai became even more furious and shouted again: "Shen Lang, don't play deaf and dumb, explain it to me!"
However, Shen Lang still ignored him, but just raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a disdainful smile.
