Inhumanity
The first treasure was once again tightly wrapped and placed in a special box, and slowly left everyone's sight.
"Next, is the second lot in this auction."
The woman with a voluptuous figure introduced in a soft voice, but most people in the audience were a little distracted.
He was erratically speculating about the guest who dared to offend the Prime Minister and throw away one million taels of silver.
Who is this?
Are you from Beijing?
Maybe a wealthy foreign businessman?
Could it be some royal family member hiding in the palace?
Doubts swirled in the venue and mixed in the hearts of every guest.
But before they had time to think about it, they were frightened by this mysterious man again.
Because no matter which item it is, no matter how much others bid, it will be won by one person in the end.
It was the young man who was so majestic from the beginning and won the Hibiscus White Jade.
The crowd was in a commotion. When the man's voice appeared, everyone turned around and looked around in panic to find this person.
But no one saw who made the sound, and naturally the wealthy gentleman could not be found.
When the fat man saw the Bamei screen appear, he was still hoping that the other party would not be interested in it.
But he didn't even have a chance to bid, and the price was raised to a height that was beyond his reach.
I could only watch wilfully as my beloved screen fell into someone else's pocket.
The Prime Minister on the second floor did not bid at this time. He and his wife hugged each other lovingly, watching the silent fight in the venue as if they were watching a play.
But every time the male voice sounded, Su Zheng's eyes flashed fiercely, betraying his innermost feelings.
Xiao Ruofeng, who has been paying attention to peerless medicinal materials, was also deeply shocked by the mysterious man's strong financial resources. Based on his understanding of most of the merchants and officials in the Mo country, there was no one with such unfathomable strength.
After the auction ended one by one, all the big families and royal relatives in the VIP box on the second floor also noticed this person.
Not to mention this unparalleled self-confidence, just the attitude of not being afraid of anyone makes them yearn for it.
If you can make friends with a person who can run rampant in underground auctions, you may be able to rely on the other person's power to roam freely in the country of Mexico.
"Dear guests, next is today's finale, the White Ninghua."
The woman walked slowly, with a palm-sized white dried flower lying in a wooden box on the stand behind her.
Xiao Ruofeng immediately concentrated his attention. This was the unique medicinal ingredient he had been waiting for all night.
"This flower only grows in the Hantan Cave in the northernmost part of the mainland. It takes two years to get here from the country of Mo."
"And Hantan Cave is located under the Jiuxiao Abyss. After breaking through the abyss, you will have to face the giant beasts protecting the treasure."
"The reason why Bai Ninghua is precious is that it is a medicinal material that can detoxify any poison in the world, and it can make the body of the person who eats it immune to all poisons."
"Including Mexico, there are only two in the entire continent."
"One flower is hidden deep in the palace, and this is the other flower."
"The flower behind me cost nearly a thousand people their lives to pick it back. I believe you all know how precious it is."
Following the woman's introduction, everyone's eyes were focused on Bai Ninghua.
The dried petals seemed to exude infinite charm under the candlelight, attracting everyone's mind and greedy desires.
Seeing the excited expressions of the guests, the woman raised her lips.
"Bai Ninghua auction begins, the base price is one hundred thousand taels, and each bid is one hundred thousand taels!"
As soon as the auction price was announced, many people took a breath.
One bid will cost one hundred thousand taels. This means that poor people are not allowed to bid at all, and rich people who dare to bid will be severely skinned!
Xiao Ruofeng didn't wait for anyone else to react and directly called out the price.
"One hundred thousand taels!"
The people around were startled and turned to look at Xiao Ruofeng, thinking that this C-level person really dared to speak.
"Two hundred thousand taels!"
A private room on the second floor was also added.
Since the first four lots were bought by the same person, the distinguished guests on the second floor no longer lit up their lamps and asked for prices.
It was really because of the other party's unfazed attitude and aggressive bid raising method that they gave up their reserved appearance and joined the verbal bidding range.
Xiao Ruofeng gritted his teeth and shouted again: "Three hundred thousand taels!"
The man on the second floor seemed determined to win and followed the price without any hesitation.
"Four hundred thousand taels!"
Xiao Ruofeng's face was a little ugly under the bitten mask. He didn't expect that the bidding in this auction would be so fierce.
He has indeed made a lot of money through his hard work in running the Chamber of Commerce. Except for helping Xiao Jiajun, the working capital he can use is only about 500,000 at most.
If you can successfully buy Bai Ninghua, all the investment will be considered worthwhile, but if you really can't...
Do you really want to watch your eldest brother's only hope fall into someone else's pocket?
Brother...
What should the rest of my brother's life be like?
Xiao Nan's little face flashed across Xiao Ruofeng's mind, and he took a deep breath and made a decision.
The worst case scenario would be to sell off all the property and start over from scratch.
Today, he will fight to the death to capture Bai Ninghua!
"Uncle Third, there is no need to bid, wouldn't it be better to watch the show with peace of mind?"
Just as he was about to speak, a small hand pressed down on Xiao Ruofeng's.
Su Qingtian's leisurely and pleasant tone soothed the man's troubled and impetuous heart. An idea suddenly appeared in his mind, and it was confirmed the next moment.
"Eight hundred thousand taels."
The one calling out the price was still the young man.
"Sure enough, he is Fan Ye."
From the moment the man started lifting the hibiscus and white jade, Xiao Ruofeng vaguely guessed that the little girl asked Fan Ye to do it, but he never thought that the other party could do such an amazing thing.
If it was for the sake of Qi Qi Su Zheng, this would be too much.
"Are you sure he has so much money with him?"
"He doesn't, Tianzong does."
Su Qingtian shrugged, "Even if the old emperor comes and gives Tianzong three points of thin noodles, can the auction held by this mere prince still refute Tianzong's face?"
Lord Xia might have mentioned Fan Ye's origin, but Xiao Ruofeng didn't expect that this person was really a disciple of Tianzong.
What the little girl said was a bit domineering, but it seemed to make some sense.
While the two were talking, there was another voice from the second floor.
"One million taels."
"One million two hundred thousand taels."
"One million three hundred thousand taels."
"Two million taels."
The inhumane bidding made everyone's hearts pound.
This isn't an auction, it's simply a wealth show.
The wealth of this mysterious man is probably much greater than that of the entire wealthy businessmen in the capital combined!
The wonderful bidding attracted King Jin who was hiding on the second floor watching the show. He listened to the outrageous bidding with amusement on his face.
"It's interesting."
After taking a sip of the old wine, the man shouted in a low voice, "Here comes someone."
A figure suddenly appeared in the darkness and knelt down in front of King Jin.
"Keep an eye on him. If he deliberately causes trouble, he will be killed without mercy!"
The man clasped his fists and accepted the order, then disappeared from the room in a flash.
