Chapter 458: Coming to the Auction to Hunt for Curiosities

Su Nuan's mouth twitched. What the hell was going on? She didn't want any of this.

Boss Bai actually agreed and said, "If the Xiao family of Rongcheng has already declined, then Xiao Lingtian's status will also plummet, even worse than the aristocratic families in our Phoenix City."

"If you don't like Young Master Yang, my son is not bad either. I will give you all my property."

Su Nuan was speechless and quickly shook her head, "No, no, no, I'm still young, don't think about this. My sister is eighteen years old and hasn't thought about this yet, why are you worried about me?"

She simply tried to divert the blame.

Yang Yue laughed, "I'm engaged, so what's there to be afraid of when I have a fiancé?"

Su Nuan asked curiously, "Normally, an engagement wouldn't be delayed until you're 18. Could it be that your fiancé has an affair?"

An uncomfortable look appeared on Yang Yue's face. She said unsurely, "No... No way..."

Boss Bai snorted coldly, "There are no good people in the Wang family."

Yang Yue's face turned pale, she pursed her lips and said, "If you don't like it, why don't you cancel the engagement?"

Boss Bai said calmly, "Isn't the Yang family training a white fox for the Wang family? Once it's tamed, as soon as we send this thing over, they'll come back to cancel the engagement."

Su Nuan narrowed her eyes. It seemed that the Wang family was not a good family. She had to go and take a look when she had the chance.

Yang Yue's face turned even paler. She now understood the situation. The Wang family felt that they had not yet reaped all the benefits from the Yang family, so they were dragging their feet on the marriage.

Boss Bai said, "I saw through it before but kept silent. Now the Yang family has done me a favor, so I would be sorry if I didn't tell you."

Yang Yue forced a smile, "Thank you, Boss Bai, for the reminder."

Su Nuan grabbed Yang Yue's arm and shook it, "Sister, you're not sad, are you? Three-legged frogs are hard to find, but two-legged men are everywhere. We don't need a man who can do the splits."

Yang Yue was a little sad at first, but now she just chuckled after hearing Su Nuan's words, "I know, I'm just a little unwilling, but the person who can be liked by Young Master Wang must have some advantages over me."

Su Nuan saw that there was no heartbreak in Yang Yue's eyes, so she comforted her: "My sister Yue is the best, it's that young master Wang who is unlucky."

Yang Yue smiled slightly and put away all her emotions, "Okay, let's not talk about this. I'm mentally prepared."

"Previously, the auctions all started at midnight, but this time they're selling off three days' worth of goods in one day, so we should go early."

Boss Bai nodded. "Yes, it's actually been open for two hours. Let's go see what's left now."

Yang Yue was startled. "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go, let's go."

The three of them immediately went out and got on the Yang family's carriage and rushed to Fengtou.

This is a temple, and the auction is held within the temple's foundations.

Su Nuan opened her mouth wide and looked at the magnificent entrance.

The temple is magnificent and looks as high as the heaven.

The foundation of the temple is a huge trapezoid, spotlessly white, and the door leading to the auction is located between the stairs on both sides.

There were two rows of monks with knives standing at the door, ready to beat up anyone who tried to break in or who didn't have a ticket.

Su Nuan swallowed and asked, "Is that temple made of pure gold?"

Yang Yue replied in a low voice: "Gold-plated, wouldn't pure gold collapse?"

Su Nuan raised her hand to close her mouth and said with great disappointment: "So it's gold-plated, then let it go."

Yang Yue was filled with questions after hearing this.

The space spirit was already rolling on the ground with laughter, "Hahahaha... do you still want to take it?"

Su Nuan responded in her heart, "It's a pity that it's not pure gold. If it were, you'd see if I'd take it apart."

If this huge pure gold pillar is put back, it will look very conspicuous no matter where it is placed.

Boss Bai smiled and said, "Let's go, we're already late."

The three of them arrived at the door, handed in their tickets and were let in. The tickets were anonymous, so anyone with them could enter.

However, they will tear the ticket into two pieces and let the person entering take the other half, which may be of some use.

Su Nuan put away her half ticket and walked into the tall but narrow porch.

It gets darker and darker here, and at the end is a gilded door.

Boss Bai pushed open the door, and it was as bright as day inside, with many people walking around.

The three of them quickly entered and were bathed in light.

Su Nuan's eyes widened. Where was this place? The Dragon Palace in the East China Sea?

The walls are either white or blue, and there are many crystals embedded in them.

The light is emitted from the pearl and refracted by the polished silver sheets, thus illuminating the room.

Yang Yue said, "This underground auction house has a history of several hundred years, and it's still so magnificent."

Su Nuan looked up and saw that the light of the pearl was brighter than any of her own pearls. Could it be that the level of the pearl was higher than her own?

The space spirit said: "This is not a pearl, it is a fog lampshade with a light source inside, just like a strong flashlight."

"The silver pieces on the wall aren't ordinary silver pieces either. They're high-definition mercury mirrors. This place must have been built by someone who traveled through time and space and has a system."

Su Nuan nodded secretly, "Well, then what do you think I am? Reborn with... a golden finger?"

The space spirit scratched her head, obviously she couldn't answer this question.

Su Nuan didn't look at the light source, but instead kept her gaze fixed on the winding corridor.

There are grooves dug in some places on the wall, and beautiful decorations are placed inside, which look like antiques.

Some gorgeously dressed women were walking in groups of two or three. They were chatting and didn't notice the three people at the door.

Su Nuan asked curiously, "Which way are we going?"

They appeared in the middle of the corridor, with roads on both sides and people walking on both sides, so Su Nuan didn't know which way to go.

Boss Bai smiled and said, "Anywhere is fine. This corridor is a circle. If you go straight at the fork in the road, you will enter the auction hall in the middle."

Su Nuan nodded, "Then let's go."

She turned right when she went out, she was used to walking this way.

The three of them walked slowly in the circular corridor and soon saw the first fork in the road.

The fork in the road is very wide, with huge paintings on both sides and words next to the paintings.

Boss Bai said, "Huh? So that's how it works. First, draw the item, then mark the auction number and reserve price. That way, people can look around and know what they want to bid on."

"This can speed up the auction, but the downside is that it will make the items less competitive."

Su Nuan nodded, "That's right, but we can increase the speed. It won't be difficult to shoot three days' worth of photos in one day."

Yang Yue exclaimed, "Ah, how could there be such a thing?"

Su Nuan looked over and was also stunned for a moment, "Yeah, can this also be auctioned?"

Boss Bai wasn't surprised and said with a smile, "What's the big deal? If it weren't for the rule that people can't be auctioned off, everyone would be on stage."

"But this is the first time I've seen it. I've heard of auctions in other cities before. Do you want to buy it? The price is definitely not low!"
