Chapter 216 Ten Trillions (Part 2)

Fire lotus seeds can directly improve one's cultivation, comparable to any panacea in myths and legends. Naturally, they are very popular. As soon as the news of the auction was released, five hours later, the venue was filled with people. When the heads of these aristocratic families returned, many people They all invited the immortal elders in the family so that they could take the fire lotus seeds immediately and let Qin Nan personally protect and refine them.

Otherwise, without Qin Nan's help and protection, the energy backlash caused by swallowing fire lotus seeds without authorization would not be something that these dying old immortals could bear. Don't let the good thing turn into a funeral. If you fail to become an immortal or an ancestor, your life will be ruined.

"Qin Nan, look, people from the aristocratic family have almost arrived now. Five hours have passed. Can our auction start?"

Hu Tao, the head of the Hu family, walked towards Qin Nan. He had stopped being dismissive in his words and looked at Qin Nan with a very playful look. As the head of the Hu family, he was responsible for coordinating the family and the country. Although he was an important person among them, he couldn't believe that Qin Nan, a young man in his early twenties, was about to become the richest man in the world.

It is true that every fire lotus seed is extremely precious. Now these aristocratic families have grasped the wealth accumulated by the family for hundreds of thousands of years in order to do everything they can to get these fire lotus seeds.

Seeing Hu Tao's cautious tone, Qin Nan laughed playfully and looked at the eager heads of the aristocratic families below, as well as several old elders of the aristocratic families, almost all of whom were in their eighties or nineties and half of their bodies were buried in the ground. Yes. Qin Nan took out ten fire lotus seeds from the tribulation stage and a hundred fire lotus seeds from the Nascent Soul stage from his Dantian in one go. He handed them to Hu Tao's hands and said, "Master Hu, I've taken the trouble. I'll take these fire lotus seeds." But I will leave it to you to be solely responsible for the auction. When the auction is over, I will personally give the Hu family a Tribulation Stage Fire Lotus Seed and ten Nascent Soul Stage Fire Lotus Seeds. I wonder if the Hu Family is satisfied?"

Qin Nan still had some concerns about Hu Tao and the mysterious Hu family behind him. Because he had just learned from the three brothers of the Liu family that the Hu family had a close relationship with the country, and this game was developed by the country. Qin Nan was afraid that the country was the huge energy team behind the scenes, so he asked him like this. Hu Tao expressed his goodwill.

When Hu Tao heard Qin Nan's promise, he took the fire lotus seeds with trembling hands, feeling extremely shocked. Originally, this time, he also sent his tribe members to participate in the bidding. There was no reason not to go for something as good as the fire lotus seeds. But he didn't expect that he would be hosting such an auction for Qin Nan, and Qin Nan would give him fire lotus seeds equivalent to one-tenth of the auction items. This move would make the old master and the old master who were standing next to him dumbfounded. Shi Guang, the head of the Shi family, also felt itchy in his heart.

If Qin Nan hadn't just given the three of his master three fire lotus seeds to improve their cultivation, and also promised his master that they would have a lot of fire lotus seeds in the future, the master's old man would probably have lost his temper at this time and asked Qin Nan also started begging.

"Master Qin, isn't this... too expensive?"

Hu Tao smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that as the head of the Hu family, with thousands of resources at his disposal, he would one day feel flattered. At the same time, he did not dare to call Qin Nan by his first name, but followed the rules of the family and called him Young Master Qin.

"Master Hu, don't be too polite. You can help me host the auction. These fire lotus seeds are what I deserve. From now on, there are many things that I need Master Hu's help with!"

Qin Nan was not arrogant and took out another fire lotus seed from the Tribulation Stage and ten fire lotus seeds from the Nascent Soul Stage and gave them to Hu Tao as the reward he deserved.

"Okay! In this case, from today on, Young Master Qin will be the honored guest of my Hu family. If Young Master Qin has any problems that cannot be solved or if there is any trouble, just ask, and our Hu family will do our best to help. Mr. Qin solved it."

After accepting this generous gift, Hu Tao naturally knew that Qin Nan definitely wanted to borrow power from the Hu family, so he did not pretend to be pretentious and directly made a promise. This is equivalent to Qin Nan also pulling in the big fish of the Hu family. I am a thief. Among the five major aristocratic families, the Liu family, the Shi family, and the Hu family have already established such a close relationship with Qin Nan. Such strength is already an overwhelming advantage. Even if the other two families, the Murong family and the Wang family, have grudges against Qin Nan, Qin Nan is not afraid at all. What's more, once the fire lotus seeds are auctioned away and scattered among these aristocratic families, Qin Nan Nan will be more able to fully grasp the general trend of the Chinese family.

"Well! Thank you very much, Master Hu. Now we can start the auction."

After Qin Nan finished speaking, Hu Tao cleared his throat, took a microphone, and shouted to the noisy family leader below: "Everyone has been waiting for a long time. Five hours have passed. Mr. Qin has entrusted me to hold the fire lotus seed auction. The conference begins now. There are a total of one hundred and ten fire lotus seeds that Mr. Qin will auction this time, ten of which are Each of the Fire Lotus Seeds of the Tribulation Stage contains the ability to advance directly to the Tribulation Stage, with a lifespan of thousands or even two or three thousand years. The remaining hundred are all Nascent Soul Stage Fire Lotus Seeds, at least. It can be promoted to the Nascent Soul stage and has a lifespan of eight to nine hundred years. The number is limited, and it is a must-win opportunity!"

After some exaggerated rhetoric, the person in charge of the family below became even more crazy. What is the concept of a life span of hundreds or thousands of years? It is almost immortality. Isn't this what rich people like them have always dreamed of? Especially those elders from aristocratic families who are dying, none of them retire to rest for the sake of living a few more years. Now, with such a good opportunity here, how could they let it pass easily? Even if they lose everything, they might still have to capture a fire lotus seed.

"Young Master Qin, you see, there are nearly two hundred aristocratic families here, and the number of people here, including the elders, is almost a thousand. The fire lotus seeds you gave us only totaled one hundred and ten, one for each aristocratic family. It's not enough. It can be seen that the bidding will be very fierce. I plan to divide it into two parts. There are two stages of bidding. In the first stage, take out fifty Fire Lotus Seeds from the Nascent Soul Stage and five Fire Lotus Seeds from the Tribulation Stage. After the bidding is completed, take out the rest. Dividing the fire lotus seeds into two parts can further intensify competition and maximize benefits. "

In order to maximize profits, Hu Tao, who often attends and hosts some important auctions, is very familiar with the common techniques of auctions. The reason why auctions are so popular among sellers is that they often put auction items at auction regardless of the high commissions, just to use the good publicity and rendering techniques of the auction to achieve a sky-high price.

Of course, the sky-high price items that can be so touted also have their own precious value, but they are just overestimated. Now, the rarity of fire lotus seeds is self-evident. Using this method can stimulate buyers' purchasing psychology, causing the auction price to rise all the way.

It is often these little tricks used at auctions that make buyers fall into the trap unknowingly, suddenly breaking through their own psychologically reasonable price, and willingly bidding high prices all the way.

"Okay! Since I handed over the auction to the Hu family, it will be handled by the Hu family. I will not interfere."

Qin Nan actually doesn't care much about this aspect. Anyway, he believes that no matter what auction method is adopted, these fire lotus seeds of his will probably fetch a sky-high price.

"Everyone, with Master Qin's consent, this auction is divided into two parts. Each part contains five fire lotus seeds from the Tribulation Stage and fifty fire lotus seeds from the Nascent Soul Stage. Now, let's start with the first Nascent Soul Stage fire lotus seeds. The starting price is RMB 100 million, and the price will be increased by no less than RMB 10 million each time. Okay, let’s start!”

Hu Tao didn't waste any time, and immediately got down to business. He summoned an auction hammer, stood in the center of the venue, and immediately started the auction of the first Nascent Soul Fire Lotus Seed.

However, what is unexpected is that Hu Tao has announced the start of the auction, but no one in charge of the aristocratic families below has called out a bid, even if the starting price is 100 million, no one has called out.

During an auction, if no one bids for an item, it will be unsold. Different from the expected hot scene, no one quoted a price, which made Qin Nan feel strange. He couldn't help but wonder: "Do they know the secret that if you swallow the fire lotus seeds, you will be controlled by me?"

"Hmph! These old foxes..."

But at this time, Liu Yongguang spoke up to clear up Qin Nan's confusion: "Although they all really want to get the fire lotus seeds, it is not rational to blindly bid for the fire lotus seeds. It is easy to form a competition with each other and raise the price of the fire lotus seeds to the sky. . Therefore, at the beginning, everyone did not take action without permission and was waiting and watching.”

A word of explanation made Qin Nan even more afraid to look down on the heads of these aristocratic families who were in charge of them. Jiang was still old and hot. Although Qin Nan's cultivation was powerful, compared with these people and sophistication, the city government was shady. Come on, it’s still the old noses of the heads of these aristocratic families.

"Uncle Liu, how can we break this deadlock?"

After learning about this situation, Qin Nan didn't want to see these aristocratic families slapping away the Fire Lotus Seeds without fighting or grabbing them. He was here to use the Fire Lotus Seeds to extract a large amount of wealth from these aristocratic families.

"Qin Nan, don't worry. The supply of fire lotus seeds exceeds the demand. Don't worry if these guys don't fight among themselves."

Liu Yongguang smiled, but he was not worried at all that the fire lotus seeds would not fetch a high price. Hu Tao, who was presiding over the auction over there, was sweating with anxiety. After all, he was presiding over it, but no one called out the bid. Even if he knew it was a trick played by the heads of these aristocratic families, he couldn't help but calm down.

"These old foxes, it looks like I'm going to throw out a little bait."

Thinking out of desperation, although Hu Tao was on the stage, he secretly winked in a certain direction below the stage. That place was the auction seat where the representatives of the Hu family were sitting. Previously, Hu Tao also arranged for people from his own family to participate in the auction, hoping to get more fire lotus seeds. Now if these old foxes refuse to bid, then it will be up to the Hu family to start the process.

"I'll give you 100 million!"

After a long silence, someone finally made a bid. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, wanting to see who was breaking the rules so shamelessly, but what they saw was the person in charge of the Hu family.
