Medical Master Chapter 948 - Sorry, I Failed to Control My Force Well

Chapter 948 Sorry, I Failed to Control My Force Well

“Four hundred million!”

A sonorous voice reverberated in the auction hall on the first floor.

At once, everyone turned around to look in the direction of the speaker.

It was Sword Fanatic!

Seeing who the bidder was, all the people present were staggered.

“Sword Fanatic is actually this rich?”

“He is indeed a veteran in Jianghu who has made a name for himself for decades. He is even willing to spend so much money without batting his eyelid.”

“With his strength, if he had not been completely engrossed in swordsmans.h.i.+p, he could have easily made several billion yuan. However, considering his temperament, 400 million is the highest bid he can place.”

In the auction house, everyone was talking about the bid.

At this time—

“Four hundred and fifty million!”

Diwu Qian put in her bid.

Sword Fanatic raised his eyebrow and smiled with resignation. Obviously, he had given up.

From the looks of things, he could afford no more than 400 million.

“Five hundred million!”

“Five hundred and ten million.”

“Five hundred and thirty million.”

“Five hundred and fifty million!”

The top forces in Wulin bid one after another.

Compared with the prices offered by these people, the 400 million yuan Sword Fanatic bid was a far cry.

Three minutes later.

“Six hundred million!”

Some called out from the hall on the first floor.

Everyone turned their heads to look.

Surprisingly, the person that made the bid was Lin Rusheng!

Now, all the people present were even more taken aback.

“Holy cow! He is also so rich?”

“Hasn’t Lin Rusheng resigned and lived in seclusion for 10 years? He’s been researching how to break through to the guru level during the past decade. Then, where did he get so much money?”

“Six hundred million yuan is definitely not a small sum.”

In the auction house, everyone’s eyes were focused on Lin Rusheng. They were all very curious about how Lin Rusheng laid hands on so much money.

Yet, before anyone could figure it out, another bidder immediately outbid Lin Rusheng.

“Seven hundred million!”

It was Yun Yangzi’s second bid.

It seemed that the Pear Garden was really well off.

The moment Yun Yangzi made the bid, Lin Rusheng shook his head with a bitter smile and quitted.

At first, Lin Rusheng thought that 700 million should be enough to buy a piece of news. That was why he prepared so much money to partic.i.p.ate in the auction.

But after the auction started, he realized that 700 million still wasn’t enough.

Even though he was dying to get the information, in the face of the high price offered by others, Lin Rusheng had no choice but to give up.

“Eight hundred million!”

Qian Xiao made a bid, instantly raising the price by 100 million yuan.

Seeing this, the second-rate forces and some of the major forces that had partic.i.p.ated in the bidding before all chose to give up.

The price of eight hundred million yuan already exceeded the largest amount they could offer.

Such money was sufficient for a second-rate force to develop for hundreds of years.

Nevertheless, though these forces chose to give up because they were outbid, they were not upset at all. After all, they had long known that they couldn’t compete against the Four Great Families and the top Wulin forces at all. They only bid to be part of the game.

With the second-rate and first-rate forces withdrawing in succession, the bidding came to the most intense moment.

The Four Great Families placed bids one after another.

In the blink of an eye, the price had been bid up to 980 million yuan.

“Nine hundred and eighty million!”

When the Xi family shouted out this number, all the people present were blown away.

Nine hundred and eighty million!

The price was a short way away from reaching one billion!

No one had expected that the bid for the information about the location of the Ambergris Gra.s.s would reach nearly one billion. That was absolutely astonis.h.i.+ng!

“The Xi family bids 980 million yuan. Are there any more bid?” the auctioneer shouted, his eyes gleaming brightly.

At this precise moment, Fang Qiu, who had not placed another bid since the start of the bidding, gently tapped on his chair again. He raised his hand and said, “I bid five Guru Swords!”

As soon as his words came out—

The whole auction house was in dead silence.

“What the f*ck!”

“Five Guru Swords?”

“Holy Moly! how many Guru Swords does John Doe have on earth?”

“Are Guru Swords as common as cabbages? How could he sell five at a time?”

“Where did John Doe get so many Guru Swords? Does he really have five?”

A moment later, the crowd burst into an uproar.

Everyone was talking about John Doe. Many people turned heads to stare at Fang Qiu.

“This John Doe is more and more unfathomable!

“Are Guru Swords that valueless to him?”

Not only the people in Wulin but also all the major forces on the scene were also struck dumb.

That was right.

They were struck dumb!

“He offers five Guru Swords. How generous!”

“Are there really so many Guru Swords in the world?”

“John Doe, what kind of force is behind you?”

“Guru Swords are very precious. They are not as cheap as cabbages. But John Doe can offer five at a time. Does he have any special way to get hold of Guru Swords?”

For a moment, all the major forces in Wulin felt that from now on, they must see John Doe in a new light.

In the world, a man who could offer so many Guru Swords was definitely not an ordinary person. Even the top forces in Wulin could by no means achieve that. Now that John Doe could put so many Guru Swords for sale, it showed that he was not an ordinary person. It also meant that there was a super-powerful force that people would shudder in fear at the thought of it backing him up!

Although everyone was in shock, the auction was not over yet.

The Four Great Families took action again and outbid all the other large forces and the Gong family. Now, this was a compet.i.tion among the Four Great Families.

The bid went from one billion all the way to 1.3 billion.

“One billion three hundred and fifty million!”

The Xi family, which owned a huge business, had no intention of stopping at all. They had driven the price so high that others were daunted by the figures.

However, at this moment—

“I bid seven Guru Swords!”

Fang Qiu made a bid again.

Seven!

Seven Guru Swords!

All the people on the scene were stupefied.

“He, he added two more!”

“Geez, Guru Swords are really like cabbages to him, aren’t they?”

“Seven! How could John Doe have seven Guru Swords?”

“How many Guru Swords does John Doe have in total?”

“Oh my G.o.d, John Doe must have robbed the grave of a certain ancient guru family. I can’t believe he could have so many Guru Swords.”

“Is Wulin going to be turned upside down?”

“How could seven Guru Swords appear all of a sudden?”

In the auction house, even the staff of the Chic Cloud Pavilion were dumbfounded.

John Doe was in possession of seven Guru Swords. What did that mean?

It meant that if John Doe wanted, he could cultivate a terrifying force of his own!

If each person could have a Guru Sword, there would be at least 20 gurus in a group of 100 people.

That was simply too scary.

“Can one possibly have so many Guru Swords in stock?”

When all the people were still in shock, someone in the hall on the first floor suddenly stood up and raised an objection. “I’m not doubting John Doe’s integrity. But I believe that everyone sitting here wants to ask the same question. After all, Guru Swords are one of the rarest kinds of weapons in the world. John Doe, if you tell me that there are seven Guru Swords in total in Wulin, I will definitely buy it. But if you say that you can present seven Guru Swords right now, I dare not believe it!”

As soon as he said that, all the people present nodded in agreement.

Fang Qiu also understood this.

They were not questioning his honesty. It was just that the price he offered was so exorbitant that they were too astounded to believe it was true.

“What do you want to say?” Fang Qiu asked, his eyes riveted on the person who lodged the objection.

“I have a suggestion.”

The man showed no fear at all. He said straightforwardly, “I hope that the Chic Cloud Pavilion could examine the Guru Swords first. If the Guru Swords John Doe offers are authentic, we will accept the result unconditionally. But if they are fake, John Doe would be deliberately disturbing the order of the auction. For the sake of the fairness of the auction, I hope Mr. John Doe can cooperate with the auction agency to test the swords.”

As soon as he said that, many on the scene echoed his thought.

“Fair point!”

“No matter what, you have to examine the swords first.”

“If there is no basic examination, John Doe can get the information at zero cost. I can do business like this as well. I’d claim that I could offer eight Guru Swords!”

“It’s unbelievable that he has so many Guru Swords. I think an examination is truly necessary.”

“Although it will take some time, I say we should still test the swords.”

Of course, they made it sound like they made such a suggestion only for the sake of fairness.

But in truth, they also wanted to see what the Guru Swords were like and how the view would be when so many Guru Swords were exhibited at the same time.

After all, only a small number of people had attended the last auction. Not many had seen a Guru Sword before.

Having heard the voices of the ma.s.ses, the Chic Cloud Pavilion also felt that it was indeed inappropriate to let John Doe place bids without verifying if he really had so many Guru Swords.

The Chic Cloud Pavilion didn’t verify John Doe’s a.s.sets at first because he was a VIP. But now, it seemed that they had to give it a check.

“Mr. John Doe, could you show us the swords?”

On the auction stage, the auctioneer immediately asked Fang Qiu with a slightly awkward smile.

At the same time, Qian Xiao, Zhan Lin, Diwu Qian, and the representative of the Xi family also cupped their fists at John Doe.

“Brother John Doe, I also think that since it’s an auction, you ought to have your a.s.sets properly verified,” said Diwu Qian.

“That’s right.”

Yun Yangzi also rose to his feet and gave a hold fist salute to Fang Qiu, saying, “Brother John Doe, I know you’re always an above-board man. You certainly wouldn’t object to this proposal.”

Seeing that everyone held the same opinion, Fang Qiu did not intend to oppose it. He nodded without hesitation and said, “Okay. Now that you all want to examine my swords, let’s do this together!”

As he spoke, Fang Qiu picked up the big case on the ground and directly put it on the tea table in front of him.

Then, he thumped the case with his right hand.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”

The sounds of objects zooming through the air were heard.

One sword, two swords, three swords…

A total of eight long swords flew out of the case.

Each of those swords was quite unique.

Those in Jianghu could easily tell that the eight swords were all Guru Swords!

“Eight Guru Swords?”

“There’s actually one more?”

“For crying out loud, how could there be so many Guru Swords?”

“If each sword is worth 200 million, that is to say, John Doe can bid 1.6 billion just with those Guru Swords!”

“John Doe has really come prepared!”

On the second floor.

When they saw the eight Guru Swords, the members of the Four Great Families all smiled wryly.

“Please excuse me.”

Fang Qiu hurriedly cupped his fists to everyone and said, “I didn’t control my force well, so an extra one accidentally got out.”

Hearing his words, everyone on the scene couldn’t help but roll their eyes.

“With your excellent strength, you say you failed to control your force?

“Who would buy that?

“You’re clearly flaunting how wealthy you’re!”

The reason why the Four Great Families smiled bitterly was that they had seen through John Doe’s intention. John Doe was simply telling them that they could continue to bid the price up to their heart’s content. Anyway, he could outbid all of them in the end.

After all, no one could know whether John Doe would continue to raise the price after the eight Guru Swords were mortgaged. Since this was an auction, John Doe would at least bring some money with him, wouldn’t he?

The conservative estimate was perhaps…

Four hundred million?

In that case, adding the eight Guru Swords, John Doe could actually bid two billion!

Moreover, it was still unknown whether there were more Guru Swords in the big case John Doe carried here. What if he fished out another one or two from it?
