Shock! The Spell Is In English! Chapter 486
Advertisement
In fact, in the eyes of the people below the stage, Patriarch Raymond's method was extremely effective. Not only could he avoid raising the price by a large margin, but he could also mess up the mentality of his opponents.
This was a very effective method, however, everyone usually lived in Guangshi City and didn't see each other with their heads lowered. Naturally, they wouldn't use such a vicious method to mess up the mentality of their opponents.
One wrong move and two clans would become enemies. For a clan, this method wasn't very good. However, for Clan Leader Raymond, this was an opportunity to raise the status of the clan. Naturally, he did not care about what the other clan leader thought. Right now, he was determined to obtain the Thunder Hammer. The Thunder Hammer had to be auctioned off by his Raymond clan. Therefore, he did not care about what method he used.
The owner of the Thunder Hammer saw that the price of the Thunder Hammer had reached 10 million. This was indeed a pleasant surprise. He had originally thought that the price of the Thunder Hammer would reach 10 million. But now that it had actually reached 10 million, it must be due to the experience of frequent auctions. In his opinion, the price of the Thunder Hammer should be around 6 million to 8 million.
Now that the price of the Thunder Hammer had reached 10 million, it meant that the price of the Thunder Hammer had reached its peak. It was difficult to continue raising the price. However, if the Thunder Hammer could continue to raise the price... As the owner of the Thunder Hammer, he was naturally very happy. After all, the more the price of his auction item, the more benefits he would receive. As long as he received more benefits, then his family would have more opportunities to rise again.
Sigh. If it wasn't for the rise of the Thunder Hammer family, then as the patriarch of the Thunder Hammer family, he wouldn't have auctioned off the most important item left behind by his ancestor. The family was already so poor that they couldn't open the pot. They were so poor that they didn't have anything left... There was no other way. If they wanted to continue surviving, the only Thunder Hammer in the family had to be auctioned off. Otherwise, the clan wouldn't even be able to eat.

This problem was very difficult to solve. There was no other way. Ever since the inheritance of the Thunder Hammer clan was cut off, the business of the Thunder Hammer clan had plummeted. Every year, they had to use money to maintain a large amount of expenses.
There was no other way.
The Thunder Hammer clan was also a large clan. Even though it had declined, there were still many people who needed to be raised. This included him, the clan leader of the Thunder Hammer clan, who had several concubines.
If he didn't have the money to continue raising this clan, these concubines would leave him, if there was really no other way, then he would auction off the items left behind by his ancestor. If the Thunder Hammer clan could rise again in the future, then the Thunder Hammer clan would definitely think of ways to buy the Thunder Hammer Hammer's memories, be it Thunder Hammer... For the development of the Thunder Hammer family or for the reputation of the Thunder Hammer family.
The Thunder Hammer would be taken away by the Thunder Hammer family again. There was no other choice. Although Patriarch Thunder Hammer wanted to sell this Thunder Hammer, he didn't have the guts to sell it forever and not take it back home. Even if the Thunder Hammer family didn't rise again in his hands, there would still be his descendants. He only needed to place his hopes on the next generation. As long as he could get this 10 million gold coins, then his family would have two chances to rise again. He didn't believe that the people of the Thunder Hammer family were all iron wastes and had no hope of rising up.
The etiquette lady looked at the price that had risen from 1 million gold coins to 10 million gold coins. It really made her a little apprehensive. There were very few things in her auction career that could raise the price to 10 million gold coins. Even 5 million gold coins wer rare in this auction in Guangshi City. Now that the price had increased to around 10 million gold coins, she could also receive a large increase, even if it was only around 10,000 gold coins.

10,000 gold coins were considered very rich in Guangshi City. Not everyone was a descendant of a family. Most of them were ordinary people. Even if they were rich or did a relatively large business, for example, 10,000 gold coins for a restaurant was enough to open a very luxurious restaurant.
With 100,000 gold coins, one could open a chain restaurant. If the villagers of Guangshi City were to eat and drink with 10,000 gold coins... It would allow them to live a good life for 10 lifetimes. If one of them was to become a source beast master, then this 10,000 gold coins would be enough.
Usually, as an etiquette lady, her commission after every auction was less than 10,000 gold coins. But today, she didn't know what had happened. Now, her commission had reached 20,000 gold coins according to her estimation. Now, she could be considered a rich woman. But to her, 20,000 gold coins wasn't enough. As an etiquette lady... She had to be busy every day. It was not easy to get this position, so she needed more money.
For the etiquette lady, it was the best result for the two families to compete for the Thunder Hammer and raise the price to 10 million gold coins. If it could be raised to a higher price, then it would be a better result. After all, she was not the one to buy the Thunder Hammer. She just needed to let the people below the stage continue to raise the price.
The chief of the Burning clan sat in his seat and it seemed that he had the same idea. The final price of the chief of the Raymond clan should be around 13 million gold coins. It might even be around 15 million gold coins. However, to him, the price of the Thunder Hammer was worth around 10 million gold coins. Normally, if an auction item had reached an estimated point in his mind, he would not continue to auction.
However, today, Clan Leader Raymond increased the price by 10,000 gold coins every time he increased the price. This really made the Burning clan leader feel disgusted.
'Therefore, since you, Clan Leader Raymond, made me feel disgusted, then don't blame me for being angry and disgusted. After all, we are all clan leaders and we all have tempers. Why can you mess with my mentality? Why can't I mess with your mentality? Since I, the clan leader of the Burning clan, have already estimated your approximate price, then don't blame me for being impolite.'
However, even if the Burning clan leader wanted to mess with the mentality of the clan leader of the Raymond clan, he wouldn't really raise the price to around 15 million gold coins. By then, 15 million gold coins would be too high for him, and he didn't have that much money. Now, he was relaxed.
He only wanted to raise the price to 12 million. This price was just right. Not only would it not meet the clan leader of the Raymond clan's expectations, but it would also allow the clan leader of the Raymond clan to spend all of his funds. At that time, the clan leader of the Raymond clan wouldn't have any qualifications to compete with him for the perfect grade medicinal pills. At that time, one of the opponents for the perfect grade medicinal pills would disappear.
