The silver bracelet that Xiaoyouzi had been looking forward to the most was hidden under a red cloth and slowly pushed onto the stage.
She strained her eyes, staring intently at the display cases on the stage.
The host removed the red cloth and said with great interest, "This item was donated by one of our mystery guests, and fifty percent of the proceeds from the auction will be donated to charity."
"This silver bracelet has a beautiful name: Full Moon. It is set with 12 gemstones of different colors, each with a different meaning. This silver bracelet is very gorgeous, and those who like it can buy it."
The moment the red cloth left, Xiaoyouzi's eyes were glued to the silver bracelet.
The full moon silver bracelet held a mysterious attraction for Xiaoyouzi.
It was as if something was seducing her.
The host, beaming, said, "This silver bracelet is said to have been left behind by the Miao high priest many years ago. The bracelet is extremely valuable. After comprehensive discussion, the starting price is five million, with each increment being one hundred thousand. Let's begin."
This silver bracelet was originally added to the queue and was not originally intended to be auctioned off separately, but rather as a separate item.
However, the owner of the silver bracelet later said that he wanted to sell it at a charity auction and agreed to donate half of the proceeds from the auction.
Of course, this was arranged by Master Bai, and Bai Li was unaware of it.
After the bidding started, Mrs. Li, in an attempt to regain face, coldly shouted, "3 million!"
This silver bracelet was priced at two million, but Mrs. Li, displeased, demanded three million.
It's simply because those diamond earrings weren't worth three million.
This silver bracelet alone is worth far more than those diamond earrings, and my partner at home doesn't say anything about it.
The small pomelo did not ask for a price.
Bai Ningyi, standing next to him, asked in a low voice, "Do you like it?"
"Mmm." Little Yuzu nodded slightly.
Bai Ningyi waved his hand and said, "If you like it, just take it. I'll just call for it."
"Need not!"
Little Yuzu grabbed Bai Ningyi's wrist: "Eighth Master, wait a little longer~"
Sure enough, before Xiaoyouzi could even call out a price, someone in the opposite room shouted, "Four million."
The price doubled immediately.
Mrs. Li's face turned ashen.
What's going on today? There's always someone trying to take the things I want from me.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Four million five hundred thousand."
A person sitting in the second row held up a sign that read: "Five million."
She was a woman wearing a cheongsam, with an elegant demeanor.
Mrs. Li was furious and couldn't help but whisper, "Who's trying to take this from me?"
Mrs. Guan, who was standing next to her, sneered: "That's Ji Zhiqing, a dance master and a professor at the music academy. How come you don't even know her?"
Countless wealthy women eagerly begged Ji Zhiqing to send their children to her home for tutoring.
Mrs. Li snorted coldly, about to lash out, but then a thought struck her, and she took out her phone to search on Baidu.
After witnessing Ji Zhiqing's prowess, Mrs. Li gave up struggling.
After Ji Zhiqing called out her bid, no one else bid.
At that moment, a voice came from inside the private room: "Six million."
Host: "The asking price for VIP room number five is six million. Is there anyone willing to raise the price?"
Ji Zhiqing glanced at the enlarged silver bracelet on the big screen, and parted her lips slightly: "Ten million."
They jumped four million immediately, bidding ten million!
This price is five times that of a silver bracelet!
The people in VIP room number five were silent for a moment. Just as the host was about to give the auctioneer a signal, they heard a voice coming from VIP room number five.
"Eleven million."
This time, the voice from room number five was a woman's voice.
Little Yuzu frowned slightly: "I feel like I've heard that name somewhere before."
"Little Yuzu, do you still want it at this price?" Bai Ningyi asked curiously.
Little Yuzu's eyes darted around: "I definitely want it. I'll come when they've called enough people outside."
“She’s here too.” Bai Ningyi smiled slightly.
Little Yuzu, who had been looking down, suddenly looked up and grinned at Bai Ningyi: "Should I give in?"
"No need to guess, it's for you." Bai Ningyi chuckled: "You can take it if you want."
Little Yuzu glanced at the screen: "It should be about right. If it weren't useful to me, it wouldn't be worth the price."
"Then rob it."
While the two were chatting, the bid outside had already reached 20 million.
Ji Zhiqing considers this price to be acceptable.
The people in room number five fell silent.
The auctioneer immediately picked up the small golden gavel: "Twenty million for the first time..."
"Twenty-one million." A cold female voice came from room number five again.
This time, the man's voice was even colder than before.
The people around were watching the show; those sitting in the back row, who couldn't really participate, were whispering among themselves.
"This price is ten times higher!"
"Rich people are really crazy."
"Damn, they spend 20 million to buy a worthless silver bracelet."
"You're wrong to say that; gemstones are valuable."
"I guess this price is really the absolute maximum."
Ji Zhiqing smiled faintly, glanced at room number five, and did not raise the price any further.
Inside the private room, the man in black robes quietly breathed a sigh of relief: "Priest, we've got this in the bag this time, right?"
"What we need to do is take it back at all costs. Twenty million is not bad." The beautiful priestess gently shook the fan in her hand, sitting in a languid posture.
The man in black robes said viciously, "Once we catch that traitor, we'll skin him alive!"
If that traitor hadn't stolen the items, they wouldn't have needed to spend 20 million to buy them back.
It's not that I don't want to call the police and take the items back.
The things inside are inexplicable.
"Alright, they'll bring the things over in a bit. Just don't cause any trouble." The beautiful priestess waved her hand dismissively.
Outside, the auctioneer, beaming, announced, "Twenty-one million for the first time..."
She had barely uttered a word when a voice came from room number three: "Twenty-four million."
It was Little Yuzu who shouted those words.
As soon as it was mentioned, the price increased by three million compared to before.
Si Jing sat in the corner, not daring to speak.
Bai Ningyi possesses a strong aura of luck; even when he sits in a corner, he is still blessed by this aura.
It's just that the luck is too strong, which makes it seem a bit strange.
There was still a hint of darkness between his brows.
Bai Ningyi chuckled when he heard Xiaoyouzi's offer: "You can just ask for 30 million, then they won't hesitate for so long."
“They’ll agree.” Little Yuzu stroked her chin. “I think we can ask them many more times. Maybe this thing is very important to them.”
That's interesting.
The high priest's belongings from Miao territory were put up for sale.
The one who's even more eager to get the stuff back than her is definitely the one playing the witchcraft trick!
She hadn't forgotten that the person who put the Gu worm in Senior Brother Qin's ring hadn't shown up yet.
Just as Xiaoyouzi was pondering, a woman's voice came from outside: "Twenty-six million!"
These words caused an uproar in the audience.
This price is already more than ten times the original price...
