"Oh? Young talent?" Mr. Xu suddenly smiled softly, shook his head disdainfully, his eyes flashed for a moment before he said again, "Mr. Lingluo, are you also here to bid at the auction house?"
This tone is very unfriendly! It sounds like you are saying: With your identity and ability, do you also come to the auction house to bid for items?
Just by listening to his tone, most people might immediately lose their temper or even get into a fight. However, Xia Yan didn't. He really didn't want to be jealous of such a person. It was completely unnecessary.
"Yes!" Xia Yan nodded and said to Mr. Xu seriously.
"Haha, I wonder where this Mr. Lingluo made his fortune?" Mr. Xu snorted slightly in his throat, raised his eyebrows, and pushed his chest forward again. The sapphire hanging on his body
, and then started to shake slightly.
Xia Yan paused and thought to himself: "This Mr. Xu is really difficult to deal with. No wonder Yafen frowned when she saw him."
"A few days ago, in the Extreme Challenge Hall." Xia Yan said politely.
Hearing Xia Yan say this, Mr. Xu suddenly twitched the corners of his mouth and laughed.
He squinted his eyes and thought to himself: "It turns out it's the upstart who bets in the Extreme Challenge Hall!"
"Haha, you can't tell." Mr. Xu turned his eyes and shook his head with emotion, "Yafen, let me tell you an interesting thing. A few days ago, our Hua Qingcheng auction house also held an auction
Auction. There was an upstart who suddenly won tens of thousands of gold coins in the extreme challenge, and then thought that I was the richest in the world. On the day the auction was held, he actually paid a deposit of 10,000 gold coins to get in.
"
"Haha, Yafen, you don't know that the first item sold at the auction was this one on me..." Young Master Xu held up the beautiful sapphire hanging on his gorgeous clothes and waved it in front of Xia Yan and Yafen, "
The sapphire is said to be found in a valley deep in the Sinful Forest."
"The base price of this sapphire is 50,000 gold coins." Mr. Xu suddenly stretched out his five fingers, his eyes shining, "The upstart originally also took a fancy to this sapphire. However, 50,000 gold coins, he heard this
The number made me a little scared. Later, he actually asked for a price. He really didn't know how to live or die. Huh, I promised someone that if he didn't like it, I would just pay 100,000 gold coins to take a picture of this sapphire.
.The upstart’s eyes almost popped out of his head at that time, and he was so frightened that he was furious.”
"Hey, these nouveau riche these days don't know how much they have. They think they can become the richest people in the world with just a few dollars!" Mr. Xu shook his head as he spoke, his face glowing red, and he looked at Xia from time to time.
Word.
However, Xia Yan was wearing a mask and he couldn't see his expression, which was a bit disappointing.
He said all this just to try to outshine Xia Yan and make Xia Yan retreat.
In his opinion, Ling Luo must have made a fortune by chance at the Extreme Challenge venue, and wanted to follow the example of celebrities and come to the auction house to show off.
When Yafen heard Mr. Xu say this, there was a hint of anger in her eyes.
Although she just wanted Xia Yan to help her block this bastard, this bastard spoke too much. Speaking like this in front of Xia Yan obviously did not save Xia Yan any face.
Yafen didn't know why she suddenly felt such anger in her heart. However, Xia Yan didn't look angry at all, as if what Young Master Xu said had nothing to do with him.
Looking at Xia Yan, Yafen's bright eyes flashed with brilliance. She secretly thought that the gap between this person and others is really huge.
When Mr. Xu saw that Xia Yan had no reaction, he felt even more happy. He felt that Xia Yan must have been frightened by him, so he didn't say a word.
"Miss Yafen, can I sit here? The auction is about to begin! I can help you bid for whatever you want to buy later." Mr. Xu said with a charming smile.
Yafen was a little unhappy, but she still didn't want to get angry. She just said lukewarmly: "Master Xu, please do it!"
After Mr. Xu happily sat down with his butt raised, he turned his attention to Xia Yan.
"Huh?" Mr. Xu asked in surprise, "Mr. Lingluo, why are you still here?"
Xia Yan smiled and said: "The auction hasn't started yet. I'm going to buy something here later. Once I buy it, I'll leave."
Mr. Xu's face turned gloomy, he sneered a few times and whispered, "Ignorance!"
At this time, Yafen really couldn't stand it anymore. She twisted her soft waist, leaned towards Xia Yan, and said, "Mr. Xu..."
However, before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by a voice.
A voice came from the right side of where the three of them were sitting.
"Mr. Lingluo?"
This voice was full of surprise. The three of them turned their eyes and saw a black figure walking over quickly.
This person is none other than Mo Jiafen, the deacon of the auction house.
"Mr. Lingluo, why are you sitting here? Oh, come on, there is a seat specially prepared for you in front!" Mo Jiafen walked to Xia Yan affectionately and said with enthusiasm.
Mr. Xu's expression suddenly froze on the side. Of course he knew Mo Jiafen and had a little personal relationship with him.
But now, Mo Jiafen acted as if he hadn't seen him, and ran directly towards this Ling Luo. Who was this Ling Luo, and the auction house actually prepared a special seat for him?
"That's not right!" Mr. Xu muttered in his heart, his brows knitting together.
Seeing Mr. Xu's expression, Yafen almost couldn't help laughing.
Xia Yan smiled and said to Mo Jiafen: "Deacon Mo, I think this place is very good, so there is no need to change places?"
In the auction house, any position can be bid. Therefore, Xia Yan did not want to move to the front.
Mo Jiafen frowned and said, "How is that possible? Mr. Lingluo, you are a distinguished guest of our auction house."
"Miss Yafen, you and Mr. Lingluo are friends. Please advise Mr. Lingluo to sit in the front with Mr. Lingluo!" Mo Jiafen lowered his eyebrows and smiled at Yafen again.
Yafen's shout at the extreme challenge venue that day shocked all the celebrities in Yushui City. At that time, Yafen ignored her own identity and shouted for Lingluo to withdraw from the ring.
How could a discerning person not see it? If there was no special relationship, would Yafen have shouted out like that at the critical moment?
Yafen looked at Xia Yan, her bright eyes seemed to smile. Because she wanted to distance herself from Young Master Xu, she leaned very close to Xia Yan. Xia Yan could even clearly see Yafen's eyebrows.
"Mr. Lingluo, since Deacon Mo is so kind, why not..."
Yafen really didn't want to sit here anymore. If this annoying Mr. Xu hadn't appeared, maybe she wouldn't have said that she wanted to move to the front.
"Mr. Lingluo?"
At this moment, another person walked over quickly.
This person is none other than Liu Xuan, the president of the auction house! Just like the last time we met, Liu Xuan is still as capable and has an intimidating spirit.
"President, Mr. Lingluo said he doesn't want to sit in the front!" Mo Jiafen quickly said to Liu Xuan with a grimace.
"How can we do that? Several church deacons are waiting for Mr. Lingluo in front!" Liu Xuan looked at Xia Yan with a straight face, "Hey, Mr. Lingluo, I didn't expect that you are so strong.
Seeing you defeat the spiritual master Nishikawa that day at the extreme challenge venue is truly unforgettable."
Liu Xuan's words were spoken quickly but clearly.
This sentence, every word, struck hard on the heart of Mr. Xu who was already stunned.
"Liu Xuan personally invited?"
"How many church deacons are waiting?"
"Defeat the powerful spiritual master at the extreme challenge venue?"
"Oh my god, what kind of monster is this Lingluo? How... how is this possible?" He swallowed with a gurgling sound in his throat.
In Mr. Xu's heart, at this moment, there are no words to describe his mood. In short, shock, astonishment, fear, worry, etc. are all blended together, and it is such a tangled mood.
"Okay then!" Xia Yan pondered for a moment, then frowned and nodded.
"Miss Yafen, are you coming too?" Liu Xuan smiled at Yafen.
Yafen also nodded and glanced at Xia Yan, her eyes filled with joy.
"Mr. Lingluo, is this young master also your friend?" Liu Xuan looked at Mr. Xu again and asked doubtfully.
Xia Yan glanced at Young Master Xu. At this time, Young Master Xu was stunned and his body was trembling slightly. He still looked as domineering as before.
Shaking his head, Xia Yan said: "This is Mr. Xu, I just met him!"
Liu Xuan nodded and said, "Sir, would you like to sit in front too?"
When Mr. Xu heard this, he shook his head in panic and said, "No need, no need, everyone please, everyone please!"
Following Liu Xuan, Xia Yan moved from his seat in a remote corner to the first row in front.
Some bidders saw Liu Xuan actually leading two people to the front row seats, and they were surprised and whispered.
However, these discussions soon disappeared. At least half of the people in the auction house knew about and had seen Ling Luo. After simply passing the news to each other, they all knew about it and naturally stopped talking about it.
.
"Welcome, gentlemen and ladies, to the Yushui City Auction House!"
At this time, the auction officially began. Mo Jiafen stood at the front of the auction and spoke slowly with a magnetic voice.
The entire auction house was completely quiet.
Xia Yan came here this time just to buy the high-grade medicinal material Xuelingcao. He had already made a decision in his heart that no matter how much it cost, he would buy the Xuelingcao.
If you think about a high-grade medicinal plant, the price shouldn't be too outrageous.
"In this auction, there will be some rare and unexpected objects. Haha, after the auction is over, I think you will feel that the trip was worthwhile!"
With a smile on his face, Mo Jiafen began to host the auction in the normal manner.
In the first row, several church deacons briefly greeted Xia Yan and then looked towards the front desk.
