Shock! The Spell Is In English! Chapter 493
Advertisement
The original owner of the Jade Bed, who had initially assessed the price of the Jade Bed, was now unable to see the price of the entire Jade Bed clearly. The current price had greatly exceeded his imagination and his estimation. He did not know how much the two family heads would ultimately fight for. He even felt that it could be raised to around 20 million gold coins.
20 million gold coins! If it was really 20 million gold coins, it would really break all the records in the entire history of Guangshi City's auction. This was a record for an auction... One had to know that normally, the total price of 10 auctions would rarely exceed 10 million gold coins. But now, just one auction alone had exceeded 20 million gold coins. If that was the case... The entire Guangshi City would usher in the greatest moment in their history.
When the etiquette lady heard that the Ice clan leader had raised the price to 15 million gold coins, her originally calm heart had now become more alive. 15 million gold coins. Ah, this was something that she didn't even dare to think of. There were too many things. However, after the Thunder Hammer's auction, she had now become somewhat numb. Although it was very difficult for her to accept this parent, she could still calm down.
Not only was the etiquette lady not calm, but even the entire auction venue was now very lively. As a person who had experienced more than ten years of auctions and had come from the capital of Green Kingdom to Guangshi City... Now, they were not very calm about the 15 million gold coins. Although 15 million gold coins were very common in the capital of Green Kingdom, 15 million gold coins in Guangshi City were too rare to see.
Now, the president of the auction house could imagine that if today's auction went smoothly, Guangshi City's auction house would become the largest auction venue in all the nearby cities. After this baptism... The auction houses in the other cities could not compete with Guangshi City at all. In the future, there might be more important treasures coming to Guangshi City to participate in the auction.

If that was the case, the value of the president of the auction house would increase by several times. At that time, the entire auction house would take off.
Everyone was going crazy. Only one person was very calm. That was Patriarch Leiluo. He definitely wanted this Jade Bed to be given to his son. Now, he had to calm down and think about how to deal with the strategy of the Ice patriarch, he guessed that although Clan Leader Ice had a very high degree of desire for the Jade Bed, he didn't reply at all. Moreover, the financial resources of the Leiluo clan and the Ice clan should be about the same. If he raised the price even higher now... Perhaps the Ice clan would give up and compete with the Leiluo clan in terms of price.
The reason why Clan Leader LeilLuo could guess like this was that other than this Jade Bed, there was another extremely important thing on the stage. Both clans had their eyes on it, and that was the sudden appearance of the perfect grade medicinal pill. One had to know that the perfect grade medicinal pill could also greatly increase the strength of clan disciples.
Why was the perfect grade medicinal pill so expensive? It was precisely because it was a perfect grade medicinal pill. The perfect grade medicinal pill was the type of medicinal pill that completely didn't have any pill poison. After being refined, it could completely become the strength of the host's entire body. As long as one possessed the perfect grade medicinal pill, if one was not afraid of burning money, one could eat a perfect grade medicinal pill without restriction. This was extremely useful for increasing one's strength. Moreover, it was extremely useful for increasing one's strength in a short period of time.
Even if the Ice clan's clan leader could not obtain the Jade Bed, he could still obtain a large number of perfect grade medicinal pills. He would definitely start from the benefits. Although the Jade Bed could increase one's strength in the long term, it would require a very long time. As long as one possessed the perfect grade medicinal pill... In a short period of time, he would be able to greatly increase his strength. If he were to start from a short period of time, it would be more suitable for him to obtain the perfect grade medicinal pills.

Right now, Clan Leader Leiluo was not very sure about the price of the Ice clan leader's mind, so he could not continue to increase the price.
However, he was determined to obtain this Jade Bed. No matter what, he would not give it to the Ice clan leader.
Since he could not guess the price in the Ice clan leader's heart, then he would name a price that the Ice clan leader could not follow.
This way, he would be able to obtain the Jade Bed.
"20 million gold coins."
After thinking for a while, Clan Leader Leiluo announced his own price.
Just like the Ice clan leader, he directly increased the price by 5 million gold coins. This price made even Clan Leader Leiluo feel a little pained.
However, thinking that it was for the future of Leiluo, he gritted his teeth and auctioned for it. His son was definitely the future hope of the clan.
If he didn't use the funds to buy cultivation resources for his son now, could it be that he wanted to save this money as compensation for others?
20 million gold coins were already the highest price that the Leiluo clan leader could offer.
Moreover, there were even perfect grade medicinal pills in the auction. Even if he didn't get a Jade Bed, he would still have perfect grade medicinal pills.'
The effect of a perfect grade medicinal pill wasn't inferior to a Jade Bed. If the Ice clan leader increased the price, Clan Leader Leiluo planned to save all his money and purchase a large number of perfect grade medicinal pills.
The Ice clan leader who bought the Jade Bed would definitely not be his match. This way, even if he didn't get the Jade Bed, he would still be able to auction off a large number of perfect grade medicinal pills. He wouldn't be at a loss.
The people below the stage saw that Clan Leader Leiluo had once again raised the bid by 5 million gold coins. The total price had already reached 20 million gold coins. Everyone looked at Clan Leader Leiluo in disbelief.
Right now, everyone was numbed by Clan Leader Leiluo and the Ice clan leader. Right now, the financial resources of the two of them had greatly surpassed that of everyone else.
This caused the others to be unable to contend with the two of them. Right now, they could only sit down and watch the performance of the two clan leaders.
Everyone turned to look at the Ice clan leader. He was the only one who had the money to continue bidding.
The remaining clan leaders and important figures didn't have the money to continue bidding. If the Ice clan leader didn't say anything, then this Jade Bed would belong to Clan Leader Leiluo.
The owner of the Jade Bed sat on his seat. His hands were trembling as he drank tea, causing the tea to spill onto his pants.
This was not because the owner of the Jade Bed was not strong enough. He believed that anyone would not be able to remain calm after receiving 20 million gold coins.
Originally, the owner of the Jade Bed thought that if he lost around 6 million gold coins, he would be satisfied if he did not lose 8 million gold coins. If he could sell it for 10 million gold coins, that would be a huge profit.
However, when the price of the Jade Bed reached 15 million gold coins, the owner of the Jade Bed was extremely excited. If it wasn't for the people around him, the owner of the Jade Bed would have jumped up to celebrate.
However, when the price reached 20 million gold coins, the owner of the Jade Bed was so excited that he couldn't speak. He was so excited that he couldn't put his words into words.
It was the right decision to place this Jade Bed in Guangshi City today.
The etiquette lady was also shocked by Chief Leiluo. The price of 20 million gold coins had already exceeded the total price of 10 auctions by more than two times.

Rimward Bound
Every citizen of the sky-cities of His Majesty's Star-Empire knows that a ship, both sky- and star-, is more then just a few bits of metal. It is the grand sum of it's hull and the crew that sail it. 'Hulls of battle-steel and men to match!' That's what the Navy's recruitment poster's claim at least. Every sailor knows that there is one more component that the city-bound folk ignore at their own peril: the soul of the ship. That it takes both man and hull to make a true ship, and that neither alone serve well or for long. In 8225 Lord Jeffrye Saltonstall the Fourth, Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps, demands semi-automated ships to 'reduce the loss of life among our brave crews', manages to convince the other politicians and bureaucrats to fund them, and gets the Office of Ship Construction to sign off on the ships as structurally sound. Dockyard workers shake their heads at the ships, muttering that they are cursed from birth, even as construction drags on. In 8230 the Explorer, first of her class, is launched. She sets out in 8233 to great fanfare on a trip expected to last six months. Neither she nor her twelve-person crew is ever heard from again. By 8235, the remaining seven Explorers are are commissioned. Lord Saltonstall managed to find crews for six of them but at the cost of mass resignations. The Night Horse, last of the Explorer class, sat in reserve as her sister-ships served well enough despite ill luck and misfortune. The Office of Ship Construction quietly issues notice that no more semi-automated ships are to be built and that all active Semi-automated ships are to be quietly retired and broken up for scrap over the next ten years. The Night Horse, sitting in reserve, is missed due to bureaucratic oversight. In 8250 Lord Ayland Wynstryngham the Eighth assumes the office of Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps. His first act is to issue notice that no ship is to be without crew nor sit in dock or reserve for longer then required for maintenance and upkeep. The Night Horse, all but forgotten, is quietly brought back into active service. Recruiting a crew for her proves another matter entirely. What poor or desperate fool would willingly sign on to crew, much less command, a cursed ship and spend months or years in deep space? Well, you would, of course. Where else is a kid from the gutters going to find that kind of freedom in the service of His Majesty? A [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] 2021. Warnings: Second person is used in this work. Semi-Polished draft: Posted chapters are subject to revision as needed as things progress. Mild Profanity on occasion.
