Chapter 77 Chapter 77 Is it okay, wife?
Qin Sheng politely put forward a hypothesis.
[Impossible!] Noodles jumped three feet high in Qin Sheng's mind, and he shouted loudly: [This is absolutely impossible!]
Qin Sheng always felt that it was powerful on the outside but weak on the inside. In fact, he guessed that it itself was not very sure. However, it was difficult to verify what happened at that time, so he could only put it aside for now.
Qin Sheng wasn't actually dissatisfied with the current situation, though. If he was truly the original owner, perhaps he should thank Noodles for his carelessness and clumsiness. After all, judging by the outcome, wouldn't it have been better for him to stay? If he wasn't the original owner, well, then he wasn't. He hadn't lost anything.
Qin Sheng quickly figured it out and stopped worrying about it. He asked Mian Noodles to inform Feng Lili that he had finished his work and she could decide when the auction would end.
Feng Lili was having a great time trying to trick Qin Kangnian. She was a little shocked that the head of such a big family was so impatient that she used a bunch of low-grade spirit stones to tie up all the funds on the books. In the end, she didn't even get a few mid-grade spirit stones, let alone high-grade ones.
Of course, this was intentional on her part. She leaked some false information, making Qin Kangnian believe that the number of top-grade and mid-grade spirit stones was actually only the two they had shown. In fact, the actual spiritual energy content of those two spirit stones was far less than the sum of the low-grade ones, and their collection value was greater than their practical value.
Everyone is confused now. If they only go for those two spirit stones, the price will definitely be raised very high by someone with ulterior motives. The Qin family is naturally not the kind of family that cares about face. They are looking at the benefits, so it would be better for them to take all the low-grade spirit stones.
There is another advantage to doing this, which is that if you take a large quantity, you will have to give them some of the goods when the time comes. If there are only two high-quality goods, they may not even get a fraction of them.
Feng Lili did this at first and didn't expect Qin Kangnian to really believe it, but no matter whether Qin Kangnian believed it or not, she would make him make the wrong choice.
If Qin Kangnian didn't believe it, then this fake news would become true. In any case, she would not let Qin Kangnian buy so many mid-to-high-grade spirit stones to go back and strengthen his strength, and cause trouble for her boss.
As for the reputation of the Peerless Auction, as long as they really have enough spirit stones, they can save it at any time.
Qin Sheng actually didn't explain this to her specifically, mainly because he was worried that he and Xu Zhaoyi were both in the Qin family and couldn't leave easily. He thought that when he couldn't guarantee the safety of his men, he should just let them do some simple tasks instead of doing such high-risk operations.
In case Qin Kangnian gets angry and embarrassed, he and the Qin family members he brought with him still have some strength.
However, Feng Lili had an idea in mind. Before carrying out this bold move, he used high-quality spirit stones to win over several families second only to the Qin family in the cultivation circle, and promised that as long as he collected enough spirit stones to hold an auction in the future, he would reserve some of the best high-quality goods for them to trade privately.
After some bargaining, the two sides reached a cooperation, especially after seeing Feng Lili's move of excluding the Qin family, they all understood something.
They had heard some rumors about the relationship between Feng Lili and the Qin family, not to mention the big fuss the Qin family made against Juesai some time ago. They sent wave after wave of people to cause trouble for Juesai, but none of them returned. In the end, they forced the peerless young genius Su Cizhao to challenge the Qin family to a decisive battle.
Now that Juesai controls the lifeline of the new cultivation circle, Lingshi, if the Qin family cannot repair the relationship in time, its leading position in the circle will be shaky.
They looked at each other, and no one showed any intention of mediating. Instead, they were happy to see it happen.
The Qin family has been dominating the major families for so many years. Others need to work very hard to cultivate in order to maintain their status, but almost every member of the Qin family has been blessed with advantages since birth. How could no one be jealous?
So when all the low-grade spirit stones were bought up by the Qin family and a large number of medium-grade spirit stones came on the market, when Qin Kangnian realized that he had been fooled by an unknown competitor and wanted to regret it, the other families looked at each other and jointly came forward to persuade him.
This is an era of scarce spiritual energy. How can the hope that cultivators have finally found be destroyed by the Qin family's selfishness? What? You're not trying to disrupt the business, you're just trying to cancel all the previous orders? There's a process for canceling contracts, and there are compensations for deposits, commissions, and price differences. The Qin family is so powerful, you don't want to just shirk all of that with a simple statement, do you?
If so, it would really open their eyes.
And since you are so untrustworthy, then don't participate in the auction for the next mid-grade and high-grade spirit stones, lest you regret it later because you can't bear to spend the money, and waste everyone's time.
Feng Lili also said at this time that it was okay to run away from the auction, but the required compensation must be based on the rules and not a penny less. After all, it had wasted a lot of their time, and people who ran away from the auction would not be welcome at future auctions.
The situation is one-sided, what else can Qin Kangnian say?
In the end, the auction lasted until dawn. Qin Kangnian knew that he had messed up, so he held his breath and waited until all the high-grade spirit stones were displayed one by one and quickly divided up. He was ready to leave only after confirming that Juesai really had the ability.
Wu Yunlian whispered to comfort him, saying that it was okay, there would be another auction. As for the fact that the Qin family might not have enough money in their account, this was the easiest thing to solve. After all, they had a good son who could bear the karma. Based on this, others should not blame him, the head of the family, for his wrong decision.
In order to continue the cooperation in the future, Qin Kangnian forced a smile and accepted the bag of mood candies that Li Jiaya gave to each guest before leaving.
Feng Lili was afraid that the strange effect of the candy would make the guests think they had poisoned it, so she had to follow this ancestor and explain everything to the guests in advance.
When it was the Qin family's turn, she put something in Lijiaya's candy bag and told Qin Kangnian and his wife separately, saying that this was a gesture of unparalleled sincerity. They had heard about Qin Shi's story, and it didn't matter where they heard it from, because this was something that could cure Qin Shi.
She was talking, but the Qin family members were absent-minded and not listening. The main reason was that no one among the people who came really cared whether Qin Shi could recover. They were all heartbroken for the high-grade spirit stones they had just missed, and they were also worried that other families would get those spirit stones and would soon be stronger than the Qin family.
Feng Lili saw it, but she didn't care. There were surveillance cameras, recordings, and witnesses everywhere. Anyway, she had reminded them. Even if the Qin family later thought that she had a problem with eating candy and came to make trouble, they would not care.
So the next morning, when Qin Sheng and Xu Zhaoyi woke up after a good sleep and went downstairs to see what the situation was like at the Qin family, they saw a group of people gathered in the living room on the first floor with a heavy atmosphere and angry faces, discussing that Juesheng must give an explanation.
The two looked at each other, both feeling puzzled.
After a closer look, Qin Kangnian and Wu Yunlian still had scratches on their faces. Wu Yunlian's hand was bandaged, and faint traces of blood could be seen through the gauze. Both of them looked decadent. Only half of the people they took out yesterday appeared here, and no one knew where the others had gone.
[Was there a fight at yesterday's auction?] Xu Zhaoyi hurriedly asked Qin Sheng to ask Noodles what happened. Looking at the horrible state of the Qin family members who returned from the auction yesterday, the battle must have been fierce. But Raphael, the strongest in Jueshi, was easily defeated by Qin Kangnian with just one move. How did the two sides end up fighting like this?
Noodles had been silently thinking about who he had sent away last night, and had not paid attention to what happened after the auction. It took him a while to reply to them.
[Oh my god…] Noodles was shocked and delighted: [You'll never believe which warrior got them into this state. The few who weren't here are all lying on the ground now!]
Qin Sheng pulled Xu Zhaoyi downstairs and said, "Don't keep me in suspense. Tell me quickly."
The only thing that could be confirmed from Noodles' reaction was that Feng Lili and the others did not suffer any loss, so Qin Sheng felt relieved. As for who did it, he really couldn't think of anyone who had the ability to do so. Could it be that the Qin family was ganged up on by several other families?
That is of course impossible. No matter how evil the thoughts are, we are all decent people on the surface and would not do such a thing.
Noodles didn't get the response he wanted, so he grumbled and recounted what actually happened last night: "Although Feng Lili had severely screwed the Qin family, there had been no conflict. The Qin family left the auction in peace. The problem lay with the mood candy Lijia gave them before they left."
They all knew that the upgraded version of that thing would cause hallucinations. It was easy to imagine what kind of hallucinations a person would experience if he ate a mood candy in extreme anger. In addition, Qin Kangnian felt guilty for doing something wrong, and the resentment of others that had been pent up was ignited by these small candies in the moving car.
On their way back, these people accidentally started fighting among themselves. If they were not very close to the Qin family's main residence at the time and the old man had not noticed the movement and sent people over in time, it is hard to say whether half of them could have survived.
Noodles finally sighed: [Host, the people you brought back from Southeast Asia are all talented. Lijiaya's brilliant idea is truly... Thai cool!]
Qin Sheng was speechless for a long time after listening to the whole process, and Xu Zhaoyi was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry after hearing his retelling.
The Qin family has been living a smooth life for so many years thanks to Qin Sheng. Not only did Feng Lili play them around, but in the end, several of them were killed by a few candies. How can this not be considered retribution for playing tricks on God?
As soon as he appeared with Xu Zhaoyi, the chatter in the living room stopped. Wu Yunlian looked at him with a complicated expression, then put on a concerned fake smile.
She deliberately raised her bandaged hand and smoothed her hair. "Sheng'er, a lot of things happened at home last night, so it's a bit messy. The house may not be completely safe right now. If you go out for a walk, remember to call Qin Ning and ask him to bring people to protect your safety."
"I understand." Qin Sheng was a little impressed by her professional acting personality as she did not forget to use her injury to add to her drama.
He really wanted to go to Hanyan Luoxing to find out what was going on, mainly because he sensed the surveillance of the Foundation Establishment cultivators at Luoxing Lake yesterday. Although he reacted quickly, he was not sure whether the other party had discovered them.
But after glancing at his wife, Yu Guang gave up the idea and decided to let Noodles go. Xu Zhaoyi would definitely have to stay away from him because his cultivation level could not be hidden when he faced the Foundation Establishment Stage. But Xu Zhaoyi would probably not agree if he went alone.
After the two of them had a leisurely breakfast, Qin Sheng asked Xu Zhaoyi if he wanted to leave the Qin family and go out to play for a while today. He was worried that the two Qing Dynasty people would patrol inside the Qin family.
Xu Zhaoyi hesitated and said, "Will it make us look guilty? What if they searched the Qin family thoroughly while we were away and found nothing wrong? After eliminating all the wrong answers, wouldn't I be the only correct answer?"
[That's right.] Qin Sheng thought about it and felt that avoiding it was not an option, but not dodging was not necessarily a safe option either. He still had to find a way to completely deprive them of the energy to investigate.
The only one who can be of use at this time is Qin Shi.
Qin Sheng asked Mian Nian to send an anonymous text message to Qin Shi, telling him what happened at the auction, focusing on Qin Kangnian's wrong decision and that after the auction, Juesai gave him something that could cure him in order to appease the Qin family, but this thing was destroyed in the fight on their way back.
Noodles was stunned: [Huh? Is it ruined?]
"If I say it's ruined, it's ruined." Qin Sheng smiled and said, "Go find Husheng right after you send the message. That's its leaf, it can be destroyed at any time."
[Host, you are really a professional villain.]
[Oh, maybe I am one of them?]
[………]There is absolutely no such possibility!
Noodles felt guilty but refused to admit it.
After some operations, Qin Sheng and Xu Zhaoyi returned to the room. Not long after, they waited for the Qin family to become lively again. Qin Shi first asked Qin Kangnian for the things Feng Lili gave him in public. Everyone present knew about it. Qin Kangnian could not deny it, so he could only ask someone to find it.
When the box was opened in front of everyone, the leaves inside that exuded rich healing power were still intact. Qin Shi thought that the anonymous message he received was wrong. He even felt that the flower on his body shrank slightly when it felt this healing power.
Unexpectedly, before he could even smile, the leaf seemed to have been hit by a lot of external forces and finally couldn't hold on any longer. It weathered in an instant, leaving no residue at all.
During the Qin Dynasty, it exploded on the spot.
He accused Qin Kangnian of being useless, not only for being easily deceived and ruining his in-laws' business, but also for being afraid that Qin Kangnian would take over the position of the head of the Ren family, so he deliberately made trouble on the way back and destroyed the treasure.
That's right, he thought that the accident on their way back was intentional by Qin Kangnian, and his purpose was to target him. Even Qin Sheng didn't expect this line of thought.
Qin Kangnian certainly couldn't take the blame, he firmly believed that this was another conspiracy of Jue Shi. Although it was true, he was finally right for once, but Qin Shi just couldn't listen.
His only hope was destroyed by Qin Kangnian. He also witnessed Qin Kangnian's stupidity and inability to be qualified for the position of head of the family, so he immediately started to make a fuss.
Although few people believed Qin Shi's words, mainly because Qin Shi was not worth Qin Kangnian's trouble to deal with, others were indeed very dissatisfied with Qin Kangnian. Thinking about the missed mid-to-high-grade spirit stones, even the old man was unwilling to speak up to defend him.
So someone who knew Qin Sheng's secret took the opportunity to come up with a brilliant idea.
Anyway, the relationship between Qin Sheng and Qin Kangnian as father and son is very cold. Why not adopt Qin Sheng and let them choose a new head of the family?
"In short, we will ensure that Sheng'er will always be the eldest grandson of our Qin family. No one can neglect him. As for who will be the head of the family, it should be the one with the most ability!"
As soon as the word "eldest grandson" came out, Xu Zhaoyi, who was watching the live broadcast of Noodles in his room, couldn't help but burst out laughing. Facing Qin Sheng's frowning face, he said, "Your family is indeed a representative of the remnants of feudalism. What era are you still discussing the legitimate and illegitimate children?"
Qin Sheng didn't know if it was because he suspected that he might be the original owner, but he actually began to feel ashamed of the Qin family's shameful behavior.
Especially when he threw it in front of his wife, he silently wrote down the person who said this in his little notebook of revenge.
Seeing that he was speechless, Xu Zhaoyi reached out and patted his shoulder, saying insincerely, "They are them, and you are you. I won't lump you in with them."
"Why should I care?" Qin Sheng denied it. He grabbed his hand and squeezed it hard as if to vent his anger. As for whether Xu Zhaoyi felt any pain, he had no idea.
His brain raced for a moment, and then he smiled maliciously: "This situation is out of control. Do you believe that Wu Yunlian will soon come knocking on my door and beg me to come down and rescue them?"
Of course Xu Zhaoyi believed it, and said seriously: [You can't go down. If you help to rescue them, then our work will be in vain, but if you don't help, it will also be strange.
Qin Kangnian is, after all, a blood relative of yours. How could you be so foolish as to choose to adopt yourself to an uncle who already has a biological son, and then let him take away Qin Kangnian's position as the head of the family? They're just being emotional right now. Once they calm down, they'll definitely suspect something's wrong with you!
[Yeah.] Qin Sheng was just waiting for him to say this, and immediately curled his lips. When Xu Zhaoyi was caught off guard, he turned over and pressed on the bewildered Xu Zhaoyi, raised an eyebrow and said: [So I'll trouble you to help me call the bed again and stop the person outside the door.]
Xu Zhaoyi: [………]So it was waiting for him here?
Almost laughed out of anger.
"Is it okay, honey?" Qin Sheng asked with a smile.
Xu Zhaoyi reached out and pressed behind his head, and their lips instantly touched.
[sure. ]
He pressed his lips against the other person's soft lips, like a dragonfly skimming the water, and stretched out his tongue, lightly hooked it, and then retracted it.
[This is the reward.]
