Chapter 20 Playing the long game to catch the big fish

Gu Niansheng's clear eyes were filled with surprise. She would never forget this voice no matter what, it was Yu Xianchi.

Han Quan originally thought about getting this third copy, but this familiar voice gave him a bolt from the blue!

"Xianchi, don't you already have it? You want to snatch it from me?" Han Quan said with a sad face, this guy is not a human being!

Yu Xianchi looked calm, "Your bid is too low."

Han Quan: "??" Three thousand taels for a small jar of tea is still low? Is this tea made of gold?

"Don't you feel distressed if you pay five thousand taels for a can of tea?"

Yu Xianchi glanced at him indifferently, and Jiang Cheng realized that he had said nonsense. Sure enough, rich and powerful people are different. Five thousand taels is just a drop of money!

"This money will be back in my hands soon." Yu Xianchi's lips curled up in an evil way, and his eyes quietly swept over the box next to him.

"Next is the final auction item of this auction, the detoxifying fruit!"

In this auction, many people came for this last detoxification fruit. This detoxification fruit is very rare and has excellent detoxification effect. Even if it is not used now, it can be stored for emergencies.

"The poison-clearing fruit, the starting price is one thousand taels, the auction begins!"

"One thousand one hundred taels!"

"Three thousand taels!" Gu Niansheng raised the price directly. She found that Yu Xianchi's move was quite effective.

As expected, many people were hesitant. Everyone in the box today is very wealthy. Who can match the momentum of this bidding?

"Three thousand five hundred taels!" Qin Minglang said.

"Five thousand taels!" Gu Niansheng said again.

Qin Minglang's face became extremely ugly. He only had 7,000 taels of silver that he could take out now. He thought that it was almost enough to buy the poison-clearing fruit, but this person seemed to be destined to win...

"Five thousand five hundred taels!"

"Six thousand taels!"

"Six thousand five hundred taels!"

"Seven thousand taels!"

"Damn it!" Qin Minglang secretly spat. He wanted this poison-clearing fruit to be of great use, but it was actually taken away by someone today!

"Let me investigate who is the person in that box. You must help me find him!"

"yes!"

With the auctioneer's final decision, Gu Niansheng bought the poison-clearing fruit for seven thousand taels, and the auction officially ended.

"I made 9,500 taels from selling Lingcha. After deducting 5% of the auction fee, I still have about 9,500 taels left. After deducting 7,000 taels, I still have two thousand taels left. I just happened to buy the restaurant and still have some money left to recruit.

waiter."

Gu Niansheng walked out of the box with satisfaction and did not leave in a hurry. She knew why Qin Minglang wanted to take the poison-clearing fruit. It was because his mother-in-law was poisoned by a poison and the doctors were helpless. Only this poison-clearing fruit could cure it.

Now that I haven't taken any pictures, I will definitely come to her directly.

Of course, it was impossible for her to give him the poison-clearing fruit.

Sure enough, when she walked out, she noticed that someone was already coming to the passage in front of her, and she quickly walked in the other direction.

Just as Gu Niansheng left, a group of people came outside her box.

When Jiang Cheng and Han Quan came out of the box, they noticed the battle outside and couldn't help but laugh sarcastically, "The third prince didn't take a picture of what he wanted. Are you going to grab it directly?"

After Qin Minglang noticed that the building was empty, his face instantly darkened. He also noticed Jiang Cheng coming out of the box next to him, and knew that he had stolen the spiritual tea from him!

"Young Master Jiang is so elegant and cheerful, so you don't need to worry about my affairs."

After saying that, Qin Minglang looked inside again and said, "Search for me!"

"Hey." Jiang Cheng and Han Quan took a step forward and stopped everyone directly.

"Third Prince, I am doing this for your own good. You should know the rules of Mo's Auction House, and you are not allowed to cause trouble here.

Once discovered, you will never be able to come here to participate in the auction. I hope the third prince will think it over carefully." Han Quan said.

Qin Minglang looked at the two people in front of him. He naturally knew the rules of Mo's Auction House. As the largest and most reputable auction house in the imperial city, Mo's Auction House has strong financial resources. Even members of the royal family must abide by the rules here.

If they were fast enough, they could just find the man and leave without being discovered. Now it was obviously too late for these two guys to stop him.

"Thank you very much for reminding me."

"You're welcome." Jiang Cheng and the other two smiled and held their hands, "Third Prince, please walk slowly."

Seeing that Qin Minglang had left, Gu Niansheng waited for a while before preparing to go out.

However, just as she was about to leave, someone grabbed her hand and pulled her back forcefully.

"who!"

The energy in Gu Niansheng's body surged, and he had already taken out a dagger with his other hand, his eyes filled with coldness.

"it's me."

The man's deep voice was full of magnetism and rang in her ears. Gu Niansheng's ears instantly turned red and she lowered her guard at the same time.

"Qin Minglang also sent people to guard outside. It's not safe for you to walk from here."

Gu Niansheng was slightly startled, looking at the handsome face so close in front of him. In this darkness, his eyes were as bright and dazzling as obsidian.

"follow me."

Feeling the warmth from the palm of his hand, Gu Niansheng was pulled by Yu Xianchi and slowly walked outside.

She looked at the figure in front of her, and for the first time she realized that his majestic figure was so reliable. He was obviously helping her every time, but she listened to the slander and avoided him like a snake...

After walking out of the auction house, Gu Niansheng's eyes still fell on the two men's hands, until the man chuckled.

"Miss Gu, if you want to be led by me all the time, I don't mind."

Only then did Gu Niansheng come back to her senses, looked at the smiling eyes in front of her, and quickly let go of her hand.

Seeing that she was a little embarrassed, Yu Xianchi stopped mentioning it and pointed forward: "Leave from this alley, they won't find you."

Gu Niansheng followed his line of sight and saw that there was indeed an alley ahead, and asked, "Why did you come to the auction house today?"

She remembered that when this auction was held in her previous life, Yu Xianchi was not interested in it, but this time it was different from before.

"For fishing."

"Fishing?" Gu Niansheng was confused, "In the auction house?"

“Play the long game to catch the big fish.”

Yu Xianchi chuckled lightly. Gu Niansheng looked at his smile and had only one thought in her mind. This fish...couldn't it be him?

…

When Gu Niansheng returned to the Gu family, Qin Minglang was busy looking for someone, but he couldn't find the person who took the poison-clearing fruit away.

Qin Xiuyu saw Qin Minglang's eyes falling on him intentionally or unintentionally, and a sneer spread in his eyes.

"Your Highness, looking at the appearance of the third prince, I'm afraid he might suspect that we are responsible for this matter."

"Since it has nothing to do with us, what are you afraid of?"
