In Wu Hong's spiritual perception, the third item was a plain and strange jade pendant. But with Alice's detection ability, if it was said to be weird, it must be weird.

After calming down, Wu Hong's attention returned to the second item being auctioned. The item that the middle-aged auctioneer was talking about was the latest masterpiece of the now famous painter Xiong Danqing.

I have heard of this person, Wu Hong'er, who has become famous in recent years. Now her ink painting of a tiger sniffing roses has a starting price of up to 600,000 yuan! It can be seen that her works are very promising in the collection circle.

The auctioneer gave the order, and the slightly nervous bidding began. Wu Hong was the first to hold up the sign and said in a calm tone: "Eight hundred thousand!"

This exclamation immediately attracted the attention of those who were interested. Even the beauties around Wu Hong looked at him in surprise. But there was no clue in his calm face.

"Okay! Buyer No. 70 bids 800,000 yuan. From the first glance, he sounds like a high-roller who loves ink painting!"

The quiet woman No. 188 smiled slightly and called out the price in a clear voice: "Nine hundred thousand!"

Crazy, crazy! Although the title of this ink painting is very good, the tiger sniffs the rose, which is based on the translation of Sigfri Sasson's poem "The tiger in the heart smells the rose", but it is far from being sought after.

Such a fanatical point.

Moreover, the auctioneer's price increase range is only 20,000 yuan! How can the price increase from five times to ten times at the beginning? Could it be said that this painting is really valuable for collection? But the painter Xiong Danqing is only less than four times.

A ten-year-old woman, her works will never be lacking in the future.[

In Sun Yan's circle, Yin Xuanzhe kept urging Sun Yan: "Young Master Yan, it seems that Wu Hong must win this painting. Let's set up a seedling for him to let him bleed more!"

Sun Yan's face was still gloomy, but it was much calmer than before. He slowly shook his head and said: "Wait a little longer~"

The bidding continued, and soon the painting of a tiger sniffing roses was auctioned for a high price of 1.2 million! This price has exceeded the organizer's prediction, and the middle-aged auctioneer's voice became louder and louder.

"One million and two hundred thousand! Friends, is there any increase in price?"

"One million and two hundred and eighty thousand!" Wu Hong raised his sign again. His tone was still light and airy. He looked completely unconcerned, yet made people feel determined to win.

The demure woman hesitated for a moment, then called out the price again: "One million and three hundred thousand!"

Many people at the scene began to boo, not because they had never seen such a high price, but because they felt that the price was a little too outrageous for the item.

"One million and three hundred and twenty thousand!" Wu Hong chased after him so closely that Ouyang Jingyao beside him looked at him inexplicably, wondering in her heart: 'Is there some relationship between Wu Hong and the painter he has never met?'

People began to accept the bids at the scene. Yin Xuanzhe had an anxious look on his face. Before Sun Yan could nod, he held up a sign and said: "One million, three hundred and eighty thousand!"

"One million and four hundred thousand!" Wu Hong did not hesitate at all.

Yin Xuanzhe looked at Sun Yan with a look on his face, and the latter frowned. He straightened his waist and quoted: "One million, four hundred and twenty thousand!"

The fish finally took the bait! An imperceptible smile appeared on Wu Hong's lips, and he loudly called out the price again: "One million, four hundred and eighty thousand!"

The discussion at the scene became even louder, and many people discovered that the two people who had just made a fuss were in conflict again. Only this time it was a real exchange of money. Who could beat whom? This group of busybodies were looking forward to it.

Sun Yan was obviously aware of the attention of the crowd and loudly shouted the price: "1.58 million!"

"Oh my God! Mr. No. 66 bids 1.58 million, which is so exciting! 1.58 million, is there anything higher?" The middle-aged auctioneer raised his voice again.

yelled.[

The demure woman at No. 188 looked at all this with amusement. Ji Xiaoman beside her muttered with a complex expression: "Jun Yi, is Wu Hong really determined to win this painting?"

Zhu Hanwen curled his lips and was immediately interested in this kind of intrigue. After all, with his methods, he had not benefited from Wu Hong just now. Seeing Wu Hong bullying poor Sun Yan again, he felt a little disinterested for a moment.

Zhu Junyi, who was holding the No. 188 plate, glanced at Wu Hong in the distance again, and said with bright eyes: "I stick to my judgment just now. He just bid for this painting casually. Now the person being played has taken the bait.

I’m afraid this tit-for-tat bidding has been going on for a long time.”

Just when Zhu Junyi finished speaking, Sun Yan shouted 1.68 million in one breath! Then the middle-aged auctioneer sounded a hammer. Sun Yan was startled and glanced at Wu Hong, but he was sighing and suffocating.

’s expression is fully visible.

Didn't he plan to take it anymore? Just as this thought came to Sun Yan's mind, the hammer rang for the second time.

Not only Sun Yan saw Wu Hong sighing sadly, but many people present also saw this scene. The same questions as Sun Yan flashed in their minds, but their personal shock was not as profound as his.

The third hammer sounded, the deal was done! The auctioneer shouted: "Congratulations to buyer No. 66, who used the auspicious number 168 to win this ink painting of a tiger sniffing roses by Ms. Xiong Danqing. Finally, best wishes to No. 66

Buyers always send all the way!”

There was a brief burst of applause at the scene. In the eyes of everyone, Sun Yan forced out a smile, but his heart was bleeding. Yin Xuanzhe, who had been eager to encourage this matter, even lowered his head, not daring to

Go and see him.

Ji Xiaoman vaguely understood, and quietly raised her green thumb at Zhu Junyi, who looked smug. The expression on Wu Hong's face, they couldn't distinguish between true and false. But the painful expression on Sun Yan's face was subtle.

Ji Xiaoman, who is good at observing words and emotions, immediately understood.

Many high-rollers and dignitaries at the venue couldn't help but take a sip of water. Although the amount of this second auction was not large, the fighting process was extremely exciting. In their hearts, there was a faint desire to avoid and buyer No. 70

plan.

The auction continued, and the jade pendant was finally presented to Wu Hong in anticipation.

After uncovering the red cloth, many wealthy guests who had stretched their necks suddenly sat back in disappointment. Many wealthy people are experts in jade products. Just from the slightly empty introduction on the big screen, they could tell that this flower and bird

The jade pendant with the pattern is really counterfeit, worth tens of thousands of yuan at most.

In fact, this jade pendant does not have a very prominent origin, and the quality of the jade is not the popular Hetian jade or mutton-fat white jade. The middle-aged auctioneer couldn't help but be a little short of words, and his enthusiasm for advocacy was a little weak. In his opinion,

Come on, such a jade pendant is likely to fail to sell. But Shang Yunfei, who is sitting in a corner, knows that this jade pendant is just a fake that goes through the motions.

Of course, what Shang Yunfei didn't know was that this fake jade pendant was not forged by modern craftsmen. It was obtained by chance by the seller who donated it. He found that it was not of much value, so he wanted to use this piece of jade pendant to sell it.

There was a lot of hype around the auction.

"Okay, this flower-and-bird jade pendant with exquisite workmanship has a starting price of 50,000 yuan! Each increase will cost 5,000 yuan!" The middle-aged auctioneer breathed a sigh of relief and finally started the auction process.

"One hundred thousand yuan!" Wu Hong was the first to bid.

At this time, all the rich people were astonished, and they were no longer surprised. Sun Yan's dandy circle was too lazy to raise their heads, because they also believed that this jade pendant was simply an ordinary item and not worth pursuing. It can be said that,

In their minds, buying this jade pendant for 100,000 yuan is even more stupid than buying the ink painting of a tiger sniffing roses for 1.68 million yuan!

However, the person arranged by the seller obviously couldn't do anything, so a weak bidding voice said: "110,000!"

Wu Hong followed without hesitation: "One hundred and fifty thousand!"

The voice said again: "One hundred and fifty-five thousand!"

"Two hundred thousand!" Wu Hong looked at Shang Yunfei's frequent glances and continued to bid.

Then it was quiet! People accepted the price! The weak voice that secretly asked for the price obviously got the instructions. This jade pendant with an estimated value of less than 10,000 yuan can be sold for a high price of 200,000 yuan. From the perspective of risk and return, it has reached

their expectations.

Even Zhu Junyi, who had just deliberately raised the price with Wu Hong, frowned and couldn't understand why he fell in love with this ordinary jade pendant. Besides, if it was for fishing, obviously his steps should be smaller.

The auctioneer was obviously not affected by these chaotic thoughts. According to the auction process, he quickly knocked down three hammers and announced that the jade pendant was in the hands of buyer No. 70. Wu Hong looked proud, but it seemed a little superficial. Sun

Yan Yi and the others were confused, and Zhu Junyi and the others were even more confused.

After that, he didn't find any items worth buying. Wu Hong followed the crowd and shouted the price several times, but he didn't feel the same pressure as before.

Until the end of the auction, Wu Hong's No. 70 plate was won again.

When the show was over, Shang Yunfei anxiously squeezed to Wu Hong's side and asked in private, quite puzzled: "Brother Wu, I winked at you frequently just now. How did you take this fake photo?"

Wu Hong said disapprovingly, and then pretended to be regretful and said: "Brother Shang, you didn't tell me earlier. Forget it, I only have 200,000 yuan anyway, so I should teach you a lesson."

Ouyang Jingyao and the other girls felt a little regretful, and the group took separate cars and left the Yueming Lake Hotel.

Along the way, Wu Hong had figured out the origin of this jade pendant. After quietly inputting a large amount of spiritual power, he finally discovered through the induction of his spiritual consciousness that there was a sword secret hidden in this jade pendant, called Kuishui Sword.

Jue. The first three levels of Sword Jue reveal the concept of using softness to overcome strength. As for the latter, in Wu Hong's perception, it was just a blur.

Could it be that there is something unexplained behind this sword technique? Looking at the confusion that looked like clouds but not clouds, like mist but not mist, Wu Hong felt that it was very possible. Soon, he had doubts about whether to keep this jade pendant or not.

Made a decision.

Cheng Caiyu followed Wu Hong and others back to the courtyard. Yao Qing felt sorry in his heart, but said goodbye with a pleasant face. Back to the courtyard, Wu Hong waited for everyone to disperse, and then knocked on the door of the east wing.

In the room, Yang Chen was sitting on a chair, muttering about his bad luck and not finding a spiritual weapon worth taking. Zhao Xue was on the side, persuading her gently. Seeing Wu Hong walking in with a smile, Yang

Chen said with an annoyed tone: "Hey, it's so late, why are you here?"
