The young man who entered the auction venue with much attention was named Nangong Mingxu.
The Nangong family is one of the four major families in Yanjing. They are extremely wealthy and powerful in business and politics.
Nangong Mingxu is the three most outstanding among the contemporary young generation. The three Nangong Mingxu brothers are known as the Nangong Three Heroes.
Not only that, Nangong Mingxu is also a disciple of the hidden sect Shenbing Pavilion, and his status is also extraordinary.
That's why Nangong Mingxu's appearance here is so eye-catching.
There were discussions all around.
"Why is Nangong Mingxu from the Nangong family here?"
"I heard that there would be top-notch treasures in this auction. I didn't believe it at first. Now that Nangong Mingxu is here, it might be true."
"One of the three heroes of Nangong, and a direct disciple of the Shenbing Pavilion. I didn't expect to see this person here today. He is indeed very majestic and impressive, and he is one of the best among people."
…
Faced with the comments of the people around him, Nangong Mingxu seemed to have ignored them. He held his head high and walked slowly, but calmly and powerfully, to the front row.
This row was already full of people, but when they saw Nangong Mingxu wanting to sit here, someone immediately stood up and offered their seats to Nangong Mingxu and others.
Nangong Mingxu didn't say anything and sat down directly.
Xu Qingyun withdrew his gaze from Nangong Mingxu. He had already learned the identity of this person from Zhang Wenhao.
But Xu Qingyun doesn't care, no matter how high the other party's status is, it has nothing to do with him.
Finally, no one entered the auction venue, and the passage was closed.
The auction officially begins.
The person hosting this auction is obviously an expert and has a certain reputation in the auction industry. He not only speaks humorously, but also knows how to stir up the atmosphere.
The originally meaningless opening remarks were made lively and interesting by him and no longer boring.
Finally the first lot was delivered.
Amid the host's words, a woman with a graceful figure wearing a fiery red cheongsam with a thigh-high slit, dragged the first lot with her hands and slowly walked onto the stage, twisting and turning.
The host personally unveiled the red cloth above, and a loud voice sounded.
"Everyone, this first auction item is a war sword from the Warring States Period. Although it has been rusted over time, it is a national treasure-level collection with a history of thousands of years ago."
"This war sword from the Warring States Period was unearthed a hundred years ago. Later, it was left overseas due to the war. We spent a lot of money to buy it back and even invited several experts to appraise it."
"This time, the treasure has returned to China. If you like it, you can collect it and enjoy it."
"This war sword from the Warring States Period has a base price of 10 million, and each increase in price must not be less than 100,000. The bidding begins."
"Everyone, please!"
The host bowed deeply, and the bidding for the first lot began.
War sword from the Warring States Period!
Many people showed interest. Even though something has been rusted for thousands of years, it shows how valuable it is.
The price of 10 million is not expensive for people like them.
Someone started bidding immediately.
"Eleven million!"
"Twelve million!"
"..."
Zhang Wenhao looked away from the sword on the stage, and turned to look at Xu Qingyun next to him.
I noticed that Xu Qingyun showed a lack of interest and knew that he was not interested in this sword.
If Xu Qingyun likes it, Zhang Wenhao can actually help take the picture. He dare not say that he is rich and rich, and he can compete with those top families for money, but he can still easily spend more than ten or two billion.
Xu Qingyun stared at the sword on the stage with a strange look on his face.
He just opened the Eye of the Candle Dragon and took a look, and found that the sword was a bit strange.
This sword is fake, but not completely fake.
This sword is not from the Warring States period at all.
This sword is a high imitation, but not a modern high imitation.
This sword may have been imitated from the Warring States Period during the Song and Yuan Dynasties, but hundreds of years later, it was mistakenly thought to be a product of the Warring States Period.
It is not uncommon for ancient people to imitate something like this and then, hundreds of years later, be considered the genuine article.
However, Xu Qingyun did not expect that the first lot in the auction would be fake, which made Xu Qingyun somewhat lose interest in the auction.
I no longer have high hopes for any real treasures I can buy next.
At the same time, Xu Qingyun was also curious, was this auction real and didn't know the item was fake? Or did he know it was fake and deliberately auction it off as an antiquities from the Warring States period.
"Twenty million!"
Suddenly, someone shouted loudly, and the number suddenly increased by several million.
Everyone followed the sound and found that Nangong Mingxu from the Nangong family was bidding.
This caused some people who originally wanted to bid for this sword to give up their thoughts.
With such an increase in price, it was obvious that Nangong Mingxu had decided on this lot.
There is no need to offend Nangong Mingxu because of an antique.
"First time in twenty million!"
"Twenty million for the second time!"
"Anyone else want it?"
"Twenty million for the third time!"
"make a deal!"
"The first lot was obtained by Young Master Nangong of the Nangong family! Congratulations to Young Master Nangong!"
The host had a smile on his face and congratulated loudly.
For this war sword from the Warring States Period, 20 million is almost the price limit.
Nangong Mingxu didn't say anything, and ordered his men to settle the bill and take out the lots.
Xu Qingyun was still wondering who would buy this fake, but he didn't expect it to be this guy from the Nangong family.
"A foolish person with too much money is a great injustice!"
Xu Qingyun muttered softly.
Unexpectedly, Nangong Mingxu’s ears were like clairaudience, and he heard all this!
Nangong Mingxu's eyes immediately fell on Xu Qingyun, with a cold light in his eyes.
It seemed as if he wanted to keep Xu Qingyun's appearance in mind so that he could find an opportunity to retaliate later.
Xu Qingyun was not afraid at all. He looked at Nangong Mingxu, as if to say, what are you looking at!
After a while, Nangong Mingxu snorted coldly and turned around to look at Xu Qingyun.
Zhang Wenhao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, looked at Xu Qingyun and said: "Immortal Emperor, the Nangong family is powerful, but we still..."
But before Zhang Wenhao could finish speaking, Xu Qingyun interrupted him.
"It's just the Nangong family, you think I will be afraid!"
Xu Qingyun's voice was indifferent, but he had a strong sense of self-confidence.
Zhang Wenhao could only lament in his heart and stopped talking.
The auction continued, and few people actually noticed this little episode.
Xu Qingyun couldn't arouse the slightest interest in the two auction items in succession.
It wasn't until the fourth lot that Xu Qingyun became a little more interested.
It is a weapon-making material called Fallen Flame Iron. It is a material made by soaking the magma from volcanic eruptions on dark iron. It is extremely hard and also contains fire properties.
Although Xu Qingyun has no idea of refining weapons now, he can collect some materials first, which may be used in the future.
This fallen flame iron is also a good weapon-making material.
After the host introduced Falling Flame Iron, he announced the starting price of five million.
Xu Qingyun immediately bid and raised the price to six million.
As soon as he finished speaking, Nangong Mingxu's voice sounded.
"Ten million!"
After saying this, Nangong Mingxu looked at Xu Qingyun with a provocative look.
