Chapter 300 Too Expensive
Now this set of black iron needles has been sold for twenty-five thousand, and she only has twenty-five thousand in total on her, including the money stored in her space.
"Ma'am, you don't want to raise the price, right? Let me count now, one, two..." Listening to the counting, Li Yiyi's heart felt like it was bleeding.
Jiang Hong looked at his wife who had her eyes closed, and said to her distressedly, "Wife, if you can't bear to part with it, we can raise the price and get it back."
Li Yiyi opened her eyes and smiled at him, "How can we increase it? We don't have so much money. Forget it, if they want it, just take it. I saw the light shining over there and saw that the man didn't seem to be a foreigner. Since he is Chinese, it's better to be bought by him than by a foreigner."
Just as she was feeling the pain in her heart, the host suddenly said, "Now there is another mysterious person who has raised the price. The mysterious person has raised the price to 50,000. I wonder if the gentleman in the audience wants to raise the price."
Li Yiyi squeezed Jiang Hong's hand tightly. "What's going on? Who raised the price to 50,000 all of a sudden? Isn't this just stealing money?"
At this point she kind of hoped that the gay man in the corner would raise the price.
Unfortunately, she was destined to be disappointed. Instead of raising the price, the other party gave up.
In the end, Li Yiyi could only watch helplessly as the set of black iron needles displayed on the stage fell into the hands of an unknown mysterious man.
After the auction was over, Li Yiyi and Jiang Hong waited at the door for Ms. Linda, who had never shown up.
"Jiang Hong, I'm finished. When I go back, if my grandfather finds out that I didn't buy back the black iron needle he wanted from the auction, and even let it be auctioned by a mysterious man, he will definitely scold me to death." Li Yi leaned in his arms, lying on his chest with a look as if she was about to cry.
Jiang Hong wanted to say something to comfort her, but since he was usually a little dumb with his mouth, he didn't know what to say, so he could only pat her on the back gently.
Just then, three figures with unhappy faces walked out.
Li Yiyi could tell at a glance that one of them was the person who had snatched the black iron needle from her but she didn't see clearly.
But the other party seemed not to notice her and walked past the couple with big strides.
Jiang Hong saw his wife staring at the three men walking by, so he asked curiously, "Wife, do you know those three men?"
Li Yiyi stroked her chin and looked at their backs. "I don't know him, but I know that the man in the Zhongshan suit is the one who tried to snatch the black iron needle from me. If he hadn't been snatching it from me, the black iron needle wouldn't have been bought by the god-like figure."
Speaking of this, she now feels a little itchy and angry that this unknown guy snatched the black iron needle from her.
Just as the couple was looking at the backs of the three people and feeling a little angry, they suddenly heard someone talking behind them.
"Do you know that the three people who just walked out are the famous young masters of the Huo family inland? I didn't expect that he would come here to auction."
"The Huo family you are talking about is not the one in the capital city, right? That's incredible. I heard that if you want to see a doctor at the Huo family, you have to ask for help from a relationship."
"It's the Huo family. The young master of the Huo family seems to be very interested in the black iron needle and wants to spend a lot of money to buy it. In the end, he ran into a rich mysterious man."
The few people were talking and quickly walked past the young couple, not noticing the couple who were eavesdropping on their conversation.
After they walked away, Li Yiyi frowned and looked at Jiang Hong who was standing beside her. "No wonder that person was so interested in the black iron needle. It turns out that he is from the Huo family. No wonder, this also makes sense. Only people who understand Chinese medicine would want this black iron needle."
Jiang Hong didn't know about the Huo family's affairs. Seeing that his wife seemed to know the Huo family well, he asked curiously, "Is the Huo family good?"
Li Yiyi shook her head. "I don't know. I haven't dealt with them. I've only heard of their name from Mr. Wei and my grandfather."
Just then, Ms. Linda, whom they were waiting for, came out with a small wooden box in her hand.
Li Yiyi thought that this was something that someone was going to take back to Mr. Liu, but as soon as Ms. Linda walked up to her, she immediately handed her the small wooden box.
Li Yiyi was confused by her sudden action. She looked at the wooden box in her hand, then at the expression on her face. She looked very serious and didn't look like she was joking at all.
"Ms. Linda, are you going to give me the things in this small wooden box?" Seeing that the other party had not taken the wooden box back yet, Li Yiyi had to ask.
Ms. Linda nodded gently. "Yes, it's for you. Mr. Liu asked me to give it to you as a small gift for his medical treatment. Mr. Liu asked me to accept it. Otherwise, he would be upset."
After hearing what she said, Li Yiyi had no choice but to accept it.
After getting in the car, she opened the small wooden box in her hand, and soon she saw what was inside. It turned out to be the pair of black iron needles that she wanted to auction at the auction.
The sound of her gasping quickly caught Jiang Hong's attention. Following his wife's gaze, he also saw the row of glowing needles.
Li Yiyi couldn't help but touch the needle with her hand. As soon as her fingertips touched it, she felt a cold feeling surging into her whole body.
Now she finally understood why it was called the Black Iron Needle.
After the couple looked at each other, Li Yiyi immediately raised her head and looked at Ms. Linda who was sitting in the passenger seat, "Ms. Linda, these are filled with black iron needles!"
Linda responded calmly, "Yes, Mr. Liu told me before we set out that I should help you, Dr. Li, take pictures of the things you wanted to take pictures of. I saw that you seemed to have some unspeakable reasons and gave up the auction, so I took pictures for you according to Mr. Liu's request."
Li Yiyi suddenly felt that the wooden box was a bit heavy. It cost fifty thousand yuan and it felt a bit hot in her hands.
All the way back to the manor, after the couple returned to their residence, Li Yiyi was still looking at the wooden box with a frown.
Jiang Hong looked at his wife who was frowning, sat down beside her and gently squeezed the back of her hand, "What's wrong? Are you still thinking about this box?"
"Well, this box is worth fifty thousand. This gift from Mr. Liu is so valuable that I don't know whether I should accept it?" She said with an embarrassed look on her face, leaning on his shoulder.
Jiang Hong gently put his arm around her shoulders and said, "If you feel uncomfortable accepting the money, then when you go to treat Mr. Liu later, tell him clearly that we are lending him the money and we will pay him back a little every month. Let's see if this works."
