Chapter 106: Auction of Green Crystal
When Su Yuan saw Ji Shian's behavior, he instantly understood her intention and smiled indifferently.
His fingers absentmindedly ran over the strings behind the mask.
Su Yuan slowly took off the white fox mask, revealing his true face, and uttered two words in a calm tone:
"Su Yuan."
opposite.
Ji Shian suddenly caught a glimpse of Su Yuan's appearance, and a flash of surprise flashed across his eyes. He then heard her introduce herself, and smiled with satisfaction and said:
"Miss Su, you are here. I guess you have found something you like, right? I have never seen you before. This should be your first time in our Hidden Jade Tower. I will stay here with you today."
When Su Yuan heard her calling herself the master of the house, a gleam of light flashed across his eyes. However, considering that Ji Shian had just introduced himself, he guessed her identity and felt it was very reasonable.
Jiangzhou is the fief of King Nanyou. As a princess, Ji Shian is certainly not afraid of government investigation, because she is the local emperor of this area.
Thinking of this, Su Yuan raised the corners of his lips slightly and smiled faintly:
"That's great. I would like to thank Miss Ji for her hospitality."
Ji Shian waved his hand, walked to the window, looked down through the shadowy gauze curtain, sat down nearby and said:
"Well, we are all friends in the martial arts world, so don't be polite. The auction will start soon. Miss Su, would you like to come over and sit down? You can see more clearly from here."
Su Yuan lightly said "hmm" and leisurely walked to Ji Shian and sat down.
Wait until she sits down.
Then you can see the huge round platform in the lobby below.
A pretty woman in a black robe led a row of attendants to the center. She smiled, cleared her throat, and said a few words of introduction:
"My fellow martial arts friends, heroes and heroes, today is the auction held once every two weeks in our Hidden Jade Tower. I'm sure you've all inquired about the rules of the tower before coming here, so I won't go into detail about it."
After saying this.
The black-robed woman clapped her hands.
A burly attendant stood by and lifted the ebony tray covered with red cloth and placed it on the small white jade pillar.
Seeing this, the black-robed woman pointed at something and continued:
"This painting was created by Mr. Lan Ying a hundred years ago. It is called Dongshan Wengtu. The starting price is one hundred taels of silver. The highest bidder wins. Anyone interested, please make an offer."
As soon as she finished speaking, bidding sounds came from all directions upstairs:
"I'll give you three hundred taels."
"I'll give you five hundred taels."
Finally, the Dongshan Wendaotu was bought for two thousand taels of silver.
See here.
Su Yuan no longer paid attention to the people downstairs, but turned his head to chat casually with Ji Shian:
"Ms. Ji, I'm here not only to buy something, but also to put some calligraphy and antiques up for auction at Hidden Jade Tower. I wonder what the process is?"
Ji Shian raised his eyebrows, picked up a crystal grape gracefully and put it into his mouth, then thought for a moment and said:
"Song Yuezhong has new goods again? Um..., do you have to be responsible for handing over to Yinyulou in the future?"
Su Yuan's lips curved up, his fingertips tapped the tabletop, and he said ambiguously:
"I am usually very busy, so I am afraid I won't be able to come here often in the future. The Young Palace Master's token is also for temporary use. Miss Ji, do you have any extra waist badges? Can you give me one?"
Ji Shian blinked a few times and said meaningfully:
"Oh, I understand. It's personal property. It's okay to come alone."
After that, she took out a purple jade pendant from her waist and handed it to Su Yuan, then raised her chin slightly and said:
"Here, this is the high-level pass to the Hidden Jade Tower. Next time Miss Su comes, the guards in the tower will lead you directly to the main room."
Su Yuan nodded, put the purple jade pendant into his sleeve, and asked in a casual tone:
"I've heard that the Hidden Jade Tower has great magical powers. As long as the visitors ask for something, they can find it in the tower and return home satisfied. I just saw that there are no houses or shops in the brochure. I don't know where to buy them. Miss Ji, please give me some advice."
Ji Shian was somewhat puzzled, but he did not ask any more questions and explained casually:
"These are not rare fixed assets. There is a treasure hunting room in the lobby. Miss Su just needs to write down the items she needs on a piece of white paper. The person in charge at the window will quote the price and she can take them away after paying the money."
After that, she paused, her tone meaningful, and continued:
"But if the quantity is too large, I'm afraid we can't do that. For example, the 100,000 dan of grain to be auctioned tonight will require bidding."
After hearing this, Su Yuan understood. He nodded and said thank you, then calmly moved his eyes downwards and continued to watch the auction.
now.
The black-robed woman who had just auctioned off a celadon lotus-patterned vase at a high price smiled even more. She pointed at the four green crystals placed on the ebony tray and smiled slightly, saying:
"This is the top-grade green crystal that Taoist Banshan just stole from an ancient tomb. It is an extremely cold and yin thing. As for its use, I believe that all the heroes present here know it, so I won't introduce it in detail. The starting price is two hundred taels of silver. Please make your bid."
Just as the black-robed woman finished speaking, a hoarse and low voice came from the room on the east side of the second floor:
"I'll give you one thousand taels."
"I will give you another thousand taels. I will definitely get this thing."
Hearing this, the hoarse female voice that called herself "this seat" laughed and said gloomily:
"Haha, I haven't finished yet. The one thousand taels I mentioned are one thousand taels of gold."
As soon as she said this, there was a sound of inhalation all around.
Just four pieces of broken green crystals, and the bid is so high.
Is this woman crazy?
As for the others who wanted to raise the price and use the money to practice evil skills, because they belonged to a unique school and were extremely poor, they stopped and did not say anything.
On stage.
The woman in black robe looked around and didn't hear anyone bidding with the woman on the second floor. She raised the small golden hammer in her hand and was about to make the final decision.
A cold female voice came from the top floor, stopping her:
"Wait, I'll give you two thousand taels of gold."
The black-robed woman's eyes lit up, and she looked over to find the voice of the bidder. She found that the voice of the bidder came from the room of the landlord. She unconsciously showed some respect in her eyes, and asked in a gentle voice:
"Everyone, are there any more people who want to bid? If not, then the four green crystals will go to the top floor guest for two thousand taels of gold."
As soon as these words came out.
There was an obvious pause in the room on the east side of the second floor. After a while, the hoarse female voice sounded again, this time with some gnashing of teeth, and said coldly:
"I will add five hundred taels of gold."
Top floor.
Su Yuan glanced at the opposite side indifferently, raised his eyebrows lightly, and said lazily:
"Three thousand taels of gold."
The black-robed woman smiled happily when she heard this. She looked up at the second floor and shouted three times. In the end, no one bid. She struck the golden hammer and said:
"Okay, this time the four green crystals belong to the guest on the top floor."
After saying that, she winked at the attendant next to her, indicating that she should hand the item over, and then continued to bid for the next item.
In the room.
Ji Shian watched Su Yuan casually stuff four small green crystals into his waist pouch, twitched his lips, and asked curiously:
"Isn't the left envoy of the Blood Nether Palace dead? Why are you still spending a huge amount of money to buy this thing?"
