Zhou Hao took 20 million, Zhang Jiayun took out 30 million, Xia Canyang took out 30 million, He Bing and Bao Yingyuan each took out 20 million.

Five people raised 120 million Chinese yuan. It was directly transferred into Qiu Shui’s account.

"Were these humans deceiving the host before? Didn't they say they had no money before? How come they can come up with so much money so quickly now?"

The system remembered clearly that Zhang Jiayun and the others had always said that they had no money.

Xia Canyang's game company was revived only because of Qiu Shui's investment.

Now, they can come up with so much money in just a few hours. The system feels that they are deceiving their host.

Qiu Shui looked at the remittance notification message on his phone and said to the system meaningfully: "They didn't lie, they really have no money. Except for Zhou Hao, the money taken out by the other people should be their families' intention. This is a test. I am testing them, and they are also testing me."

"What are you testing?" The system didn't quite understand what Qiu Shui was talking about.

"To test whether I am the golden thigh they imagined. If I am, then they will make a profit. If not, at most they will lose some money. However, they will see through me."

Qiu Shui couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, none of these Kyoto families are simple. But I didn't expect that Zhou Hao actually took out all his money. It was a bit beyond my expectation."

Zhou Hao had said before that he was not on good terms with his family, and the money he took out was obviously the money he earned from previous "investments".

The system still didn't understand. "I don't understand. You humans are really complicated animals. In fact, this system thinks that if the host needs money, there is no need to go through so much trouble. This system can lend money to the host."

"Oh? Can you still lend me money?"

The system lends him money to swipe his super rebate card?

This kind of transaction that returns to the original source does not seem to be a systematic style.

Qiu Shui asked, "How much interest do you charge for borrowing money?"

The system said generously: "No interest."

Qiu Shui asked suspiciously, "How can you be so kind?"

The system smiled and said, "Of course, there are conditions. The money borrowed by the host must be used on the super rebate card. And, after successfully obtaining the rebate, pay one-third of the rebate amount as compensation for the money lent to the host by this system."

One third of the rebate amount?

Qiu Shui almost got mad at the system for asking for too much.

He knew that the system was not that kind.

What do you mean, no interest.

But he was asked to take one-third of the rebate, and he also had to use the borrowed money on the super rebate card.

Doesn't this mean that we are directly dividing up the rebate money he gets?

It’s like the system borrowed 400 million from him.

Adding his own 600 million, he received three times the rebate. That's 3 billion.

One third of 3 billion as compensation, that is 1 billion.

3 billion minus 1 billion, there is still 2 billion left.

He used his own money for rebates, but it was only 1.8 billion. It seems that he made another 200 million yuan.

On the surface, it seems that he will gain more benefits than using his own money to pay the rebates.

In fact, this is a pit.

Because one third is just compensation, if you borrow money from the system, you still have to pay it back.

The most correct algorithm should be one-third of the super rebate plus the principal.

In other words, out of the capital of 1 billion + 400 million, he has to return 1.4 billion to the system.

By this calculation, not only did he not make any profit, he actually lost 400 million.

"System, I think you just want to bully me because I'm not good at math." Qiu Shui felt that his IQ was seriously insulted by the system.

The system played dumb and said, "What are you talking about, host? I don't understand."

"System, I thought you hadn't grown up, but I didn't expect you to become bad. You are no longer the same system."

Qiu Shui angrily ignored the system.

This system is unbearable. Before, they tricked him into studying, and now they are trying to cheat him of his money.

Qiu Shui no longer paid attention to the system, but took advantage of the time to look at the list of items to be auctioned by the Treasure Pavilion sent by Zhou Hao.

After Qiu Shui came back, he also looked up some information about the Treasure Pavilion Auction House.

Treasure Pavilion is a relatively famous auction house in Kyoto.

Different from other auction houses that auction everything, Zhenbao Pavilion Auction House auctions things like antiques, calligraphy and paintings.

This auction is only held once a year, and every time, there are many people attending. Therefore, if you want to enter this auction house, you must have an invitation from the auction house.

Some of the invitations are sent out by the auction house itself, and some can be purchased.

However, only the invitation card sent by the auction house itself can bring one person into the auction house, and the invitation card purchased by oneself can only allow one person to enter the auction house.

The invitation cards in Zhang Jiayun's and his friends' hands were sent out by the auction house itself.

So, they can all bring one person with them.

It was Qiu Shui's first time to attend such a high-end auction, so he wore a white suit and a tie.

A tailor-made suit is comfortable to wear and shows your temperament.

Although Qiu Shui has an average appearance, his confident and elegant demeanor can instantly kill many people.

Qiu Shui’s confidence does not come from the system, but from the 600 million yuan in deposits. And that super rebate card.

With a 3-300 times rebate card, as long as Qiu Shui spends the 600 million, it can at least become 1.8 billion.

What's more, now he has received the 120 million yuan that Zhang Jiayun and others have raised.

Qiu Shui thought about it and decided that if he bought a house and collected rent, he would have a stable income.

But the money spent cannot be recovered so quickly.

Antiques are different.

Buy some rare antiques and collect them. Maybe after a while, the price may increase directly.

If you collect it for another ten or twenty years, and then sell it at that time, the price may double.

So, when you think about it, buying a house is not as cost-effective as buying antiques.

Of course, the prerequisite is that you have to buy some rare and precious antiques.

That's why he asked Zhou Hao for the list of items at the auction.

Zhou Hao, Xia Canyang, and Bao Yingyuan drove two cars over and went to the auction with Qiu Shui and the others.

He Bing left for Xicheng in the afternoon, so he didn't come. But the remittance arrived ahead of schedule.

After the few people met, they tacitly did not mention the investment.

As if this matter had never happened, we chatted and laughed all the way to the auction.

Treasure Pavilion is one of the two major auction houses in Kyoto.

It specializes in auctioning rare antique calligraphy and paintings and holds an auction every year. There will be many collectors coming from all over the country.

When they arrived at the auction venue, quite a few people had already come to the auction.

Qiu Shui saw many celebrities that he could only see on TV.

Almost all of those female stars were standing next to the older boss in a suit. Most of the male stars are hugging some middle-aged women who are dressed richly.

When the two sides meet, there is no awkwardness, but they can stand together and chat as usual.

Of course, there were also some men and women dressed up beautifully, but because they had no invitations, they could only stand at the door of the auction. They dreamed that some big boss would take a fancy to them and bring them to the auction.

Auctions like this are always attended by many big names. Of course, there will be many people who want to take advantage of the opportunity to curry favor with the rich and powerful and soar to the sky.

Although Qiu Shui was here for the first time, he behaved very calmly.

When he was learning etiquette in the system space, he had attended banquets hosted by national leaders, let alone small occasions like this.

Qiu Shui entered the auction hall, surrounded by Zhang Jiayun and others.

There are two types of seats in the auction hall.

One type is a separate box on the second floor, with a total of 20.

The other type is the seats in the lobby on the first floor.

If you want to use the box, you need to pay the box fee, 3 million.

Those who come to the auction are either rich or noble.

A private room is a symbol of status.

The mere 3 million box fee is just a drop in the bucket for those people and is not worth mentioning at all.

Therefore, 20 private rooms have already been booked.

At this time, Zhang Jiayun and others were apologizing to Qiu Shui.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Qiu, all the private rooms here are booked. You can only sit in the lobby on the first floor. But don't worry, our seats are very close to the front. It is definitely possible to see the auction items clearly."

It’s not that Zhang Jiayun and his team were reluctant to spend 3 million on the private room, but with their ability, they simply couldn’t book it.

There are too many big guys coming tonight. They are just third-rate families and there is no way they can earn more than those from first-rate families.

And, most importantly, because of the matter of the Qin family's illegitimate child, many of the people in the circle who had originally wanted to please Xia Canyang and others now turned to the Qin family's illegitimate child.

"It's okay. You can see more clearly from the lobby."

Qiu Shui didn't care at all whether to sit in the box or in the hall. It doesn't matter where you sit, as long as there is a seat.

But some people don't think so.

A young man wearing a white suit like Qiu Shui came over with a group of young people.

After seeing Qiu Shui surrounded by Zhang Jiayun and others, the young man in the white suit immediately sneered.

Then he walked directly towards Qiu Shui and others.

"Oh, who am I, standing here blocking the door? Turns out it's our Second Young Master Zhang."

After seeing clearly who was approaching, Zhang Jiayun, Zhou Hao and others immediately stood in front of Qiu Shui reflexively.

"Qin Ze?"

Zhang Jiayun couldn't help but curse in his heart. He didn't expect to meet the illegitimate son of the Qin family so soon.

At first glance, this guy is here to cause trouble.

What a narrow road the enemy meets.

Qin Ze? Qiu Shui, who was protected by Zhang Jiayun behind him, looked at the person who came after hearing the name.

This, is the illegitimate son of the Qin family?
