For a moment, no one raised the price. Su Ran rested her chin on her hand and watched the commotion in the venue. Song Shiyan, who was next to her, became interested and asked, "Ranran, why did you buy this? How about I buy it for you?"

This time, Su Ran didn't ignore his words. She shook her head slightly and said lazily, "No need. I quite like opening blind boxes. I didn't expect to be able to do it at an auction."

Su Ran's tone was calm and natural, but Song Shiyan liked her even more, and his gaze towards Su Ran was full of passion.

Su Qingjiu stood quietly to the side, seemingly waiting for someone to raise the price and snatch it from her.

Song Shiyan looked at it for a while and then looked at the items on the stage with scrutiny in his eyes, but he did not make a move in the end. After all, these were things that Ranran liked. But if someone tried to take them, he would buy them and give them to Ranran.

However, Song Shiyan's love was ultimately unrequited. After all, Su Ran lacked many things, but the one thing she had in abundance was money.

To her, money is just a string of numbers.

Domestically, Su Ran is also helping with domestic businesses. In some impoverished areas, the Su family has gone to the local areas to develop suitable industries, arrange employment for people, and help everyone get rich together.

Su Ran propped her chin on her hand and looked at the situation below.

Then, after the auctioneer struck the gavel three times, it was solemnly announced, "The ninth item has been won by the owner of VIP room number two on the third floor. The auction continues."

Su Ran leaned back lazily in her chair, watching the auctioneer on stage continue bidding on the tenth item, a piece of porcelain, which was sold to someone on the second floor.

Next came the eleventh item, a luxury handbag from the 1980s, of which only three exist worldwide. This item attracted bids from the various socialites present.

As women always say.

"It cures all diseases."

In the end, a wealthy woman on the first floor bought it for seven million. Su Ran was a little surprised. It was just a bag worth collecting, but the final price was more than forty million.

Su Ran ultimately underestimated the rich ladies' love for these luxury items. It seems that many rich ladies are unable to resist them. Next up is the last item in the first round of auctions.

The twelfth item in the auction was not particularly unusual: a pair of porcelain vases. Su Ran sat there lazily. The starting price was three million, with a minimum increment of one hundred thousand.

Su Ran wasn't particularly interested in any of the other items, except for the box, which she quite liked.

Not long after, the porcelain vase was taken down by the people on the second floor. Su Ran yawned. This round of items did not arouse much interest in Su Ran, after all, the good things were all in that box.

Su Ran curled her lips into a smile, then beckoned to Su Qingjiu, who was standing to the side, "Come on, let's go open some blind boxes and have some fun."

After each round, there is a break, during which many people choose to check the items won in the first round of auctions.

Su Qingjiu nodded, and then the group went to the elevator next to them. After going downstairs, they arrived at a small warehouse where all the auction items won by the first round of sellers were located.

The people handling the reports here are all armed, and they're from the auction house, so there's no possibility of bribery. Otherwise, this auction house wouldn't have survived for so long.

There's a nameplate indicating whose it is. Just show the invitation to the bodyguard next to you, and he'll open the glass door in front of you.

After Su Qingjiu received the invitation, the bodyguard immediately opened the glass door and removed the surrounding glass doors, revealing the box clearly.

There was some seaweed around, probably from being soaked in the sea, and the lock was rusty.

Su Ran's arrival attracted the attention of the others. When they saw that she was the buyer of the box, they all stopped to look, after all, they were very curious about what was inside the box.

Considering the price they paid and Williams' personality, everyone was watching with a sense of suspense, wondering what that young master had secretly planned.

After the bodyguard used pliers to cut the chains on the outside of the box, Su Ran opened the box as instructed. Inside, there was some gold and silver covered in water.

There were many people around, and they could see what was inside.

For a moment, everyone around fell silent, craning their necks to look in their direction. Su Ran looked at the contents of the box with satisfaction.

Not bad, I didn't expect to have some unexpected gains.

What pleased her wasn't the gold and silver, but something else wrapped in cloth beside it. Su Ran's eyes lit up; it was this thing that she had her eye on.

The once pristine white cloth was now filthy and had turned a muddy yellow.

Su Ran gave Su Qingjiu a look, and Su Qingjiu immediately put on white plastic gloves and used the scissors next to her to cut open the cloth covering the surface.

Before long, the contents inside were slowly revealed.

Someone nearby exclaimed in surprise, "This is a snake's head? Then what was that snake's head before?"

"What? Two snake heads?"

"What two snake heads? There are clearly three!"

"Three snake heads appeared at an auction? Which one is the real one?"

"So, which one is real? Is this one real? But the previous one was authenticated by experts."

What if all of these are fake?

"What the heck? Another snake head? Has this auction stirred up a snake pit?"

The surrounding discussions grew louder and louder. Su Ran smiled slightly; she could guarantee that the snake head in the statue was real.

There's no way around it, she's cheating.

With the system appraising it, she didn't even need to use X-ray vision to see what was inside the box; she could just pay and take it.

So, I wonder if Sakura will be able to break down when she finds out about the two fake items she got before?

But she couldn't be bothered with them and looked at the contents of the box.

Wrapped in cloth, the snake's head was well preserved. Although there were some small parts corroded by seawater, the snake's head was generally well preserved.

The value of the twelve bronze heads lies primarily in their witnessing of history and their immense significance to China. China has consistently strived to recover these lost artifacts.

Because those are treasures belonging to China, witnesses to history, and the inheritance of civilization.

During this time, some people speculated that the snake head was fake, some said it was real, and some said it was all fake; in any case, the number of people discussing it kept increasing.

Because three snake heads appeared in the first round of auctions, everyone was wondering what else would appear in the later auctions, and whether another snake head would appear.

Hearing the voice beside her, Su Ran didn't say anything, but turned to look at Su Qingjiu and said softly, "Take good care of this thing."

Upon hearing the sound, Su Qingjiu probably realized whether the snake head was real or fake. Su Jia brought over a prepared three-dimensional box, which Su Qingjiu placed inside. Su Jia then carried the box and stood aside.

His gaze grew increasingly cautious, constantly watching for any movement around him. Since he carried this thing close to his body, it must be very important.
