Chapter 259: Spiritual Fruit Auction
Soon, Xiao Liyue was arranged by the waiter to sit in the middle of the first row. After everyone arrived, Neil Purvis walked to the auction table and nodded at her with a smile.
Jiang Che said with disdain: "This kid is really good at showing his affection. The more I look at him, the more I hate him."
Professor Hou coughed lightly and said, "Ahem... We are on his territory now, Xiao Jiang, you'd better be careful not to provoke him."
"Humph... He was a shameless man when he attacked our border defenses. But now he pretends to be a gentleman. How hypocritical." Jiang Che snorted coldly.
Xiao Liyue smiled helplessly and said, "It seems that you and he hate him very much. Do you have a grudge against him?"
"The only hatred between him and me is national hatred. Of course, there is no personal hatred."
"You are a very patriotic person, quite good." Xiao Liyue praised.
At this time, Neil Purvis coughed lightly: "Ahem... Welcome distinguished guests from all countries, welcome to Country M to participate in our international auction. The auction is about to begin. I wish you all good luck."
As soon as he finished speaking, an international model in a white dress came up with an ancient artifact and placed it on
Neil Purvis smiled and said, "This ancient artifact was produced during the Jade Kingdom period three thousand years ago. A collector has entrusted our international auction to auction it. Anyone who likes it can bid now. The starting price is one million, and each increase in price must not be less than one hundred thousand. The auction begins."
Jiang Che looked at him unhappily. What he said sounded very high-sounding, but in fact, it was just stolen from the early days of their empire.
Professor Hou pushed up his glasses and looked at the high-definition cultural relics projected on the stage. He said excitedly, "It really is more than 3,000 ancient cultural relics from the Jade Kingdom. Xiao Jiang, we must take it down and can't let it fall into the hands of other countries."
"Well! Don't worry, Professor Hou." After saying that, Jiang Che offered two million.
Then people from various countries began to bid. After all, those who can come to an international auction house naturally have money.
Soon, an ancient artifact was auctioned for more than 20 million yuan, and was finally bought by Jiang Che at a bid of 25 million yuan.
After a while, Jiang Che bought five ancient artifacts of the empire, spending hundreds of millions.
Everyone present had a new opinion of Jiang Che. They didn't expect him to be so generous at such a young age. It seemed that the imperial people were also quite rich.
Although they are rich, there is no need for them to spend such a high price to buy so many ancient artifacts. They are not going to open a museum, unless they particularly like them.
Suddenly, a fruit emitting golden light was placed on the stage, and everyone present was shocked.
"Oh my god! What is this thing? Why is it glowing golden?"
"It looks like fruit, but I've never seen it before."
"How can fruit glow? It must be fake! How can normal fruit glow golden?"
Jiang Che was also very shocked and asked, "What kind of fruit is this, Professor Hou? I have never seen a glowing fruit before. It's amazing."
Professor Hou said solemnly: "I have lived for most of my life, and this is the first time I have seen this magical fruit."
Xiao Liyue looked at the spiritual fruit on the stage that was emitting golden light, and felt somewhat familiar with it. The golden light emitted by the fruit was actually a kind of golden spiritual power.
Seeing everyone's interest was aroused, Neil Purvis smiled and said, "This happened a few months ago. A fruit farmer found this golden fruit on his own fruit tree and then sold it to our international auction. The starting price of this mysterious fruit is also one million, and each bid cannot be less than one hundred thousand."
"I'll give you twenty thousand. I want to take it back and study what kind of fruit can glow."
"I am very interested in this golden fruit. I am willing to pay five million for it."
"I'll give you 10 million..."
Soon, this fruit emitting golden light was sold for more than 30 million yuan. A glowing fruit that is not edible was sold at such a high price, which discouraged many people from buying it.
Even though it was special, it was way over the price.
When everyone thought that this glowing fruit was about to be bought by the rich man from Country D, Xiao Liyue slowly raised her hand and shouted, "Forty million!"
When the rich man from Country D saw that it was Xiao Liyue who was bidding, he immediately smiled and said, "Since Master Xiao likes it, I'll give this glowing fruit to you."
Xiao Liyue was naturally not polite. She took a piece of white paper from the waiter, drew a talisman in a moment, and gave it to him.
Everyone watched the amulet flying towards him, feeling excited and envious.
"Thank you, Master Xiao!" The rich man from Country D was so excited that he held the amulet tightly, fearing that someone else would snatch it away.
Everyone else knew Xiao Liyue, so naturally no one competed with her for the price, and the glowing fruit was delivered to her hands.
Xiao Liyue played with the glowing fruit in her hand, then casually threw it to the waitress to wash it, and then started eating it with a crunch.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this. She just ate the luminous fruit worth 40 million. Wasn't she afraid of being poisoned? Who would eat unknown fruit for no reason?
Professor Hou and Jiang Che were shocked to see that she had eaten it. They asked, "Are you okay? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
Xiao Liyue shook her head and said, "I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere, it tastes really good."
"Really?" Jiang Che questioned.
Neil Purvis on the stage was shocked when he saw her eating it. There were two other glowing fruits, and they took the other one for testing, but they didn't find anything special. However, when several people tried it, their bodies exploded.
Now Xiao Liyue ate it and nothing happened, which surprised him.
After eating this glowing fruit, countless spiritual powers circulated in her body, making her feel extremely comfortable.
She didn't expect that this glowing fruit was actually a fruit with spiritual power. However, unlike spiritual energy, the spiritual power in this fruit was particularly strong, making her soul feel very comfortable.
Unfortunately, there is only one. It seems that she needs to collect a large amount of this spiritual fruit and other things with spiritual power. As long as she absorbs enough power, she believes that she will be able to recover the memories of her previous life.
In this way, she would know who she was and why she was here, but the prerequisite was how she could find these spiritual fruits.
But looking at Neil Purvis on the stage, Xiao Liyue knew how to find it.
It was soon halftime, and a premium lunch was provided on the second floor of the auction house, so everyone went to the second floor to have lunch.
Prepare to take a one-hour break and continue in the afternoon.
At lunch time, Neil Purvis walked up to Xiao Liyue and said with a smile, "Miss Xiao, can I sit at the same table with you?"
"Well! Sit wherever you like." Xiao Liyue said lightly.
Jiang Che looked at him with displeasure and said, "The second floor is so big, there are vacancies all around, why would President Neil bother to eat with us?"
"Ahem... Xiao Jiang! It's our honor that President Neil is willing to sit with me. Please take a seat, President Neil." Professor Hou said politely.
