The originally noisy scene instantly fell silent when the gong sounded. Then, a young and beautiful woman dressed in ancient clothes walked out.
"It's actually Miss Linglong. They actually invited Miss Linglong to be the host of this auction!”
"It seems that this auction is very likely to be held by the Situ Clan. No wonder the standards are so high!”
"From the looks of it, the medicine for this auction must have been confirmed by the Situ family. There shouldn't be any accidents!”
"I was wondering why they would invite those guest appraisers who don't deserve their reputations. So it turns out that they're just asking them to make up the numbers.”
The appearance of the lady on the stage caused the entire place to fall silent for a moment. Soon after, an even louder discussion erupted. Clearly, most of the people present knew this lady called Ling Long.
Especially those old Chinese doctors. After seeing Ling Long, all their previous dissatisfaction disappeared.
Ye Hao listened to the crowd for a while before he understood.
The woman on the stage was called Situ Linglong, the daughter of the head of the Situ family. Although she was young, she had already made great achievements in the field of Chinese medicine. She had inherited most of the medical heritage of the Situ family and was already the representative successor of the Situ family.
The Situ family was an ancient family in Nine Regions. They had been practicing medicine for generations. In ancient times, there were generations of people who entered the palace to be imperial doctors. They had served the emperor before. They could be considered a family that had accomplished great things in the field of Chinese medicine. Their reputation and strength were second to none.
Ye Hao had never come into contact with the Chinese medicine world in Nine Regions before. This was the first time he knew that there was such a Situ family in Nine Regions.
After a while of discussion, Situ Linglong took out the first auction item and instantly quieted down.
"Everyone, the first auction item today is a fifty-year-old ginseng. Its level has already reached the goblin level. It is the best medicine to strengthen the body and prolong life. The starting price is five hundred thousand Nine Regions coins!”
After a moment of silence, the noise sounded again.
Ginseng was actually divided into grades. Most of the ginseng sold in the pharmacy was less than ten years old. The price of this kind of ginseng was about a few thousand to tens of thousands. It could completely meet the normal needs of ordinary people and was also one of the most popular expensive medicinal herbs.
However, this kind of ginseng was just an ordinary ginseng. It was discovered too early by the herb gatherers, and the medicinal effects could not be unleashed to the extreme.
Only thirty-year-old ginseng could be called Solomon's seal. Its medicinal effects were much better than ordinary ginseng. Its effects were several times that of ordinary ginseng, and its price had to be several times higher. It was usually between a hundred thousand to a few hundred thousand.
Gnomes required at least 50 years of age to grow ginseng. They were considered Earth Essence Treasures and could extend one's lifespan after consumption. The market price was between hundreds of thousands and millions.
Ginseng that was over eighty years old was known as a divine herb. It was said that it already possessed a certain degree of divinity and could only be encountered by chance.
A weak person could recover by eating a small section of the root. It was called a life-saving medicine by many Chinese doctors. It was priceless.
Once it appeared, it would be snatched by countless people.
The last time a divine herb-level ginseng appeared was more than 20 years ago. It was the finale auction item at that time. The final transaction price was more than 15 million Nine Regions coins, and that was only a very small portion of the divine herb, about 100 grams!
"550,000!"
"600,000!"
"Seven hundred thousand!"
After a short silence, the voices of bidding rose one after another.
The starting price of 500,000 was already considered very low for a Gnome Ginseng. It was also the first auction item. All kinds of bids rose and fell, and the price continued to rise. In the blink of an eye, it had already doubled to 1.2 million!
After that, the number of bidders began to decrease. The estimated value of this gnome was about 1.2 million, and there was not much meaning in increasing it.
"Two million!"
Ye Hao, who had his eyes slightly closed, finally spoke.
As soon as his voice rang out, the scene instantly fell silent. Everyone around looked at him.
"Who is this person? Didn't they know that the price of this gnome was already sky-high at 1.5 million? He actually asked for two million directly. He must be crazy!”
"Unless there is an urgent need, otherwise, this price will definitely be smashed into my own hands!”
"This young man is too impulsive. He can't see things clearly! If the teachers in the family knew that he was bidding like this, they would definitely be furious!”
Ye Hao ignored the discussions of the people around him. He had already taken a fancy to this goblin.
Such a treasure would definitely cause many parties to fight for it in the apocalypse.
It was even more precious than the heavenly treasure he had risked his life to snatch. Now that he could get it with just a little money, there was no reason for him to let it go!
"2,010,000!"
Just as everyone was shocked by Ye Hao's bid of two million, someone suddenly shouted a higher price.
Looking at the source of the voice, it was Li Wei, who was sitting in the VIP seats, who shouted out this price.
At this time, he was looking at Ye Hao with a face full of ridicule, with a look of "What can you do to me?"
Ye Hao glanced at him indifferently, ignoring his provocative gaze and spoke again.
