Chapter 24 Make a choice!Jiahe and Yafei sat down in room number one, and soon after, a maid brought in tea.
Ya Fei's charming voice rang softly beside Jia He's ears: "These days, I have experienced many auctions in the yellow-level and black-level auction houses. Now I am the chief auctioneer of the black level!"
"This time, I came here just to see the auction techniques of the family's earth-level chief auctioneer."
Jia He looked at Ya Fei with some surprise and said with a smile: "Why, there are also levels of auctioneers?"
Ya Fei snorted and laughed, "Of course. Auctioneers of each level enjoy different treatment in the family. My dream is to become a chief auctioneer of that level. The most precious things in the auction house will all be sold from my hands!"
Jiahe looked at Yafei and said, "Oh? That's a good dream indeed. It seems you are willing to fight for it!"
Ya Fei said: "Of course, this is the goal I strive for all my life!"
"But you are still unwilling to accept this, right?" Jiahe suddenly said.
Ya Fei was slightly stunned, looked at Jia He and asked in confusion: "What does your highness mean by this?"
Jia He chuckled and said, "From what I know, although the Mittel family is a business family, they also treat cultivation talent and strength equally, right?"
"Even if you really become a heavenly-level chief auctioneer one day, you can only stop there. Don't you want to become the patriarch of the Mittel family?" asked Jiahe.
Ya Fei's expression suddenly changed. She looked at Jia He solemnly and said, "Your Highness, please stop talking about this. The Mittel Family naturally has its own rules when choosing a patriarch!"
Jia He nodded and smiled: "Of course I know this, but strength, after all, accounts for the largest proportion, isn't it?"
Ya Fei fell silent for a while.
Gah continued, "You have a high emotional intelligence and maintain a good relationship with me, which proves that you hold a high position in interpersonal communication!"
"Although you always greet everyone with a smile, in fact, you are difficult to get along with in private. It is not easy to get close to you. Mu Zhan of the Mu family is an example!"
"But what I want to tell you is that Mu Zhan is not the first, and he won't be the second. Even if you become the chief auctioneer of the family, as long as your strength is not up to standard, you still cannot become the clan leader."
"One day, your family needs to win over a Douhuang or even Douzong-level warrior, and the price to pay is you. What do you think your family will do, and what should you do?" Jia He's voice was soft, but it seemed to carry a kind of magic!
Yafei gradually fell into deep thought. When she heard Jiahe's last words, her delicate body trembled slightly!
Ya Fei seemed to see the scene where her family sent her away in order to win over the strong, and she would eventually be unable to resist, this was her fate!
Jiahe could feel the fear and trembling in Yafei's heart at this moment.
"If there is a way now that can free you from the feeling of being controlled, will you choose it?" Jiahe looked at Yafei and said.
Ya Fei seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. She looked at Jia He with panic in her eyes and an anxious tone, "Your Highness, do you have any solution? I don't want to be a puppet controlled by others!"
"You and I are friends, and I won't lie to you. I do have this method, but exchange requires chips. Where are your chips?" Jiahe looked at Yafei and said lightly.
Yafei was stunned for a moment. Yes, where are her bargaining chips?
Snapped!
At this moment, the hammer on the field fell, making a slight sound, and an auction item was successfully traded!
Ya Fei also came back to her senses at this moment, looked at Jia He and said, "Whatever your highness wants, I can hand it over to you!"
Jia He's eyes were clear, but when he looked at Ya Fei, there was a hint of aggression in his eyes and he said, "Perhaps, you yourself are the bargaining chip!"
Yafei's face turned pale and she looked at Jiahe in disbelief.
Jia He still smiled and said: "You can think about this matter. Anyway, there is still plenty of time, enough for you to consider it!"
Then Jia He looked at the auction table. The chief auctioneer looked at everyone present and said slowly: "Next, we will auction the finale of our auction, the thunder attribute earth-level advanced fighting skill: Nine Heavens Thunder Punishment!"
A dark blue scroll was brought up, and everyone at the auction held their breath.
The high-level earth-level fighting skills sound very attractive, but unfortunately, the auction price of this fighting skill is too high, and there are not many people in the Northwest Continent who practice thunder attributes, and their strength is not strong!
Even if this high-level earth-level fighting skill could be auctioned off, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to be kept!
"Ahem!" The chief auctioneer coughed twice, then said, "This high-level earth-level fighting skill has a small flaw, but after being tested by my auction house, there should be no problem in practicing it!"
"This volume of thunder-attributed earth-level advanced fighting skills only has the first half, so its level can only be considered low earth-level. But if I am lucky enough to find the second half, it can be comparable to the earth-level advanced fighting skills!"
After hearing this, many people who came to the auction couldn't help but curse.
"What's going on? Isn't this a lie? Would the Mittel family come up with such a gimmick?"
"That's right. This high-level earth-rank has suddenly become a low-level earth-rank. It has a thunder attribute and is missing half a scroll. How can it be competitive?"
Jia He also frowned slightly, then glanced at Ya Fei who was a little absent-minded beside him and asked: "This fighting skill is only half a scroll?"
Yafei gradually came back to her senses and looked at Jiahe with a hint of alienation in her eyes.
Jiahe didn't care about these things. If she knew how to make choices, then Jiahe could help her. If she didn't, then Jiahe wouldn't have to worry about it.
"This volume of exercises is indeed only half a volume, but the first half is enough for ordinary people to practice!" Ya Fei said lightly.
Jia He didn't say anything, the auctioneer on the stage had already called out the auction price of this fighting skill: "The starting price of this Nine Heavens Thunder Penalty is 4 million gold coins, and each bid cannot be less than 500,000 gold coins!"
"Four and a half million gold coins!"
"Five million gold coins!"
Although the starting price was high and it was a thunder-attribute fighting skill, someone quickly called out a higher price.
Low-level earth-level fighting skills are generally worth between five million and eight million gold coins.
This will depend on the attributes of the fighting skills and the price that the people participating in the auction are willing to offer. Maybe someone is in urgent need of it, so it is not impossible to offer 10 million gold coins!
Soon, the price reached seven million gold coins!
At this time, there was basically no one left who could bid, and the price had basically been determined at seven million.
It’s a gimmick of a high-level earth-level fighting skill, but in fact it’s only half a volume, and it can’t be sold at a higher price.
"Eight million!" At this time, Gah said.
Ya Fei looked at Jia He in surprise. She had just said this casually to Jia He, but she didn't expect that he would actually participate in the auction!
"Eight million gold coins, is there any higher price than this?" the auctioneer asked loudly!
But there was no sound in the audience. It was obvious that the price was beyond expectations and there was no need to bid any more!
As the auctioneer's hammer fell, this thunder-attributed fighting skill was bought by Jia He for eight million gold coins!
