Chapter 474: The Auction Continued
After half an hour, the sixth auction round began.
The sixth auction round was different from the previous ones where two people were used to lift a large table and cover it with a white cloth. This time, it was the etiquette lady who personally brought this auction item over. Moreover, it was shown that the volume of this auction item was very small, it was also light in weight. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the etiquette lady, who was so skinny, to lift the item with her arms.
The etiquette lady placed the item on a table and took the item down. The others were not interested after seeing the item, but two families saw the auction screen, they immediately stood up in excitement.
When the item was placed in front of everyone, everyone looked at the two families. They were the Black Tiger family and the White Crane family.
Lugh sat in the VIP room.
He picked up the information in his hands. There was an item on the information. It wasn’t something important. It wasn’t used by a source beast or a source beast master. It was an antique. To be precise, it was a cultural relic left behind by the common ancestor of the Black Tiger clan and the White Crane clan.
This cultural relic was actually a necklace. Its name was the Black Stone Necklace. It was once worn by a very important person of the White Crane clan.
The person who wore the Black Stone Necklace was the common ancestor of the White Crane clan and the Black Tiger clan. Now, in order to compete for the position of the ancestor’s genuine clan, the two clans had specially come to Guangshi City from other places.
The Black Stone Necklace itself was not very valuable, because it was not very precious. It was only worn for the sake of its owner, and its value was very high. There were no special runes on it, nor were there any special patterns on it.
There weren’t any special array formations, nor was there any information recorded. It was just that a person’s frequently used item represented an identity. To others, this item was just trash… But to the Black Tiger clan and the White Crane clan, this was an extremely important item. As long as one obtained it, one could obtain the status of an authentic clan. It was truly more important than anything else.
The etiquette lady directly introduced this Black Stone Necklace. The original owner was a level 60 source beast master who had once been a glorious minister of construction in the Green Kingdom.
In the past, the owner of this necklace had an extremely high status in the Green Kingdom. There wasn’t even a second level 60 source beast master in the entire Green Kingdom who could bid continuously against the king.
Ever since the owner of this necklace had died and split up the kingdom, there hadn’t been a level 60 source beast master. Level 60 source beast masters were too rare. Moreover, the owner of this Black Stone Necklace was too brilliant in making money.
The owner of the Black Stone Necklace had once relied on his three source beasts to conquer a large territory for the entire Green Kingdom. After his death, the entire clan received the blessing of the owner of this Black Stone Necklace.
However, after the death of the owner of the Black Stone Necklace, his descendants were divided into the Black Tiger clan and the White Crane clan due to certain matters. Originally, according to the rules, the Green Kingdom had specially given the Black Stone Necklace the identity of a Duke, and it was a permanent hereditary title.
However, ever since the two clans had separated, the Green Kingdom did not know who should be given this seat. Now, according to the agreement between the two clans, whoever obtained this Black Stone Necklace would be able to obtain the authentic title of Duke, one had to know that the Dukedom in the entire Green Kingdom was very rare, and it was a permanent hereditary system. As long as the Green Kingdom didn’t perish, then this position would continue to exist.
If others were to look at this black necklace, it was estimated that it wasn’t even worth 10 gold coins. However, in the eyes of the two families, the Black Tiger family and the White Crane family, this necklace was worth at least 10 million. If it were not for the fact that their ancestors had lost this necklace, the two families, the Black Tiger family and the White Crane family, would not have come from the Green Kingdom to this small rural city.
In the eyes of the Black Tiger family and the White Crane family, this Black Stone Necklace was worth 10 million gold coins. After owning this necklace, they would definitely have the entire Dukedom. Therefore, they had prepared a large amount of wealth for this auction.
In a corner of the entire auction, a person was staring at the Black Stone Necklace on it. He was the seller of the Black Stone Necklace. He had accidentally found this item in a forest. After all, when he had first found this Black Stone Necklace…
He had thought it was some trash. After all, the material on it was really not good. However, he had relied on his friends in the antique world to recognize that this was a relic of the owner of the Black Stone Necklace in Green Kingdom’s capital. It was extremely valuable.
To others, this item might not be very important, but to the Black Tiger family and the White Crane family, it was too important. After the two families received the news, they immediately came over.
The two families found the seller almost at the same time. However, when the seller saw the two family leaders find him at the same time, he was really flattered. No matter who he gave this Black Stone Necklace to, he could not offend anyone. After all, giving it to the Black Tiger family was equivalent to offending the White Crane family. If he gave it to the White Crane family, it was equivalent to offending the Black Tiger family.
The Black Tiger family and the White Crane family were two very powerful families in the entire Green Kingdom’s capital. Regardless of which family he offended, the seller would die.
Therefore, he felt that this Black Stone Necklace was a hot potato. He did not know how to deal with it. Moreover, the two families had sent people to watch over it. They wanted to wait for him to sell it to someone.
Just when he was extremely anxious… He thought that he could put this item up for auction in the auction house. The auction house and these two clans would definitely be the ones who could buy it. The fact that it was not a matter for him alone was a fact… He could not bear it.
Just like that, the Black Tiger clan and the White Crane clan, two very powerful clans, came to Guangshi City and waited for this item to be auctioned in the auction house. After the chairman of the auction house instructed them, they immediately became spirited.
Although auctioning off this Black Stone Necklace was an extremely dangerous matter, the chairman of the auction house still wanted to auction off this item. If this item could be auctioned off, then the profits inside would be too great.
Even the chairman of the auction house was unable to estimate the value of this Black Stone Necklace, causing the value of the Black Stone Necklace itself to be very low. However, the value of the Black Stone Necklace given to the Black Stone Necklace by the owner was very great, and to what extent could it reach…
This completely depended on the prices given by the Black Tiger clan and the White Crane clan. Therefore, the president of the auction house accepted this big order and planned to auction it off tonight. In particular, the auction volume was actually allowing the two clans to compete for the malady… There wasn’t a second clan that wanted to buy this Black Stone Necklace at the scene.
