Chapter 161: Turmoil in the Auction House
"This should be it." Qian Yunyue looked at the gilded signboard at the door, and couldn't help but think of the two auctions he had participated in, although they were not pleasant memories.
"Hurry up and get inside, and if you come across something interesting, take a picture." Yu Ling excitedly pulled Qian Yunyue inside, there was a big auction today, and they also got two VIP cards from Long Yao.
"Don't forget our purpose." Qian Yunyue smiled helplessly, but compared to before, they really didn't have any inventory now, when he was about to leave, he handed over the Sky Destroyer, Jade Spirit Sword and Qingyue Jewelry, as well as all the money on his body to Jade Ling, but he didn't expect the Qingyue Ring to be on Jade Ling, and it actually had the function of space storage, except for these things, all the items in his original backpack disappeared.
"It turned out that General Qian and Mrs. Qian were here, and I asked for forgiveness if I missed the distance." When the auction house manager saw the names of the two, he immediately greeted them warmly.
"You don't need to say hello, just arrange as usual." Qian Yunyue waved his hand, he didn't want to be too conspicuous.
"Yes, the villain knows, and immediately arranges for the two to go to the VIP seat on the second floor."
This auction house has a history of nearly 100 years, and it is said that the earliest behind-the-scenes boss was the Bailong Sect, and after the fall of the Bailong Sect, Long Yao sent people to seize all its property, including this auction house, which was later bought by a wealthy merchant surnamed Chai, and has been in operation until now.
There are few rare and strange treasures in the auction of the human world, they are all ordinary goods, and the jade spirit who was so excited before suddenly lost interest, Qian Yunyue originally wanted the steward to provide the past auction records, but the steward told him that the information was destroyed because it was related to the Dragon Worship Sect, and it was impossible to find out who the seller of the silver statue was.
"Distinguished guests, the next item is very rare, it is a necklace made of white metal, and the shape is unique, the reserve price is 1000 gold, and the minimum price increase is 100 gold, everyone is welcome to bid."
"This ......" Qian Yunyue looked at the item, wasn't this the silver product they were looking for? And the shape of this chain pendant is a cross.
"How much money do we have now?" He turned his head to the sleepy Jade Spirit and asked.
"About 100,000 gold, what's wrong?" Jade Ling replied in a daze.
"The target has appeared." Qian Yunyue made up her mind, this thing should not be contested by many people, and in the eyes of ordinary people, it is a slightly special necklace, and there is no other use.
"Where? Let me see. Yu Ling was refreshed all of a sudden, she frowned and looked at the necklace for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "What shape is this?" ”
"In some ancient legends, the cross has a strong restraint effect on vampires, but in this world, there should be no such thing, and this necklace must have a great origin, and we must not only photograph it, but also find the provenance of this necklace." Qian Yunyue explained that there are not many people bidding on the field at present, and the price has only risen to 2,000 gold.
"Then let's bid." Yu Ling directly held up the sign.
"The guests in VIP Room 2 bid 2,100 gold, is there anyone who pays a higher price?"
Everyone talked about it, but I didn't expect that there were VIPs interested in this necklace, just now it was just a casual customer bidding in the venue, it is estimated that the young master of which family wants to buy it back and give it to the beauty.
"3,000 gold!" Suddenly, a voice came from the VIP room next door.
"The guests in VIP Room 1 bid 3,000 gold, is there anyone who pays a higher price?"
"Who is so bold as to dare to steal something from my aunt and grandmother?" Yu Ling burst into flames at once, and raised his card again and shouted: "4,000 gold!" ”
"Oh? There's a girl next door? In the No. 1 VIP room, there was a young man in white who was either rich or expensive at first glance, and he waved his hand to the people behind him, "Go and inquire which lady is it." ”
"Young master, don't ask." At this time, the steward happened to walk in, "Next door is General Qian and his wife." ”
This person is Chai Yusheng, the son of the owner of the auction house, and since his father was in charge of the auction house, he has often been hanging out here, specializing in auctioning those rare pieces of jewelry to pick up girls.
"General Qian? Why hasn't Young Master Ben heard of such a general in this dynasty? "Although Chai Yusheng's father and son are only businessmen, they have dealings with many ministers in the court, but Qianyunyue has never appeared in the court, so they don't know about Qianyunyue's existence.
"Back to the young master, this villain doesn't know much either." In fact, the person in charge doesn't know what kind of general Qian Yunyue is, but his gilded name post will not be fake.
"Since I haven't heard of it, it doesn't matter. Continue to increase the price of Young Master Ben, and you must take this necklace. ”
"Yo, this kid is with us." Although Qian Yunyue had only obtained half of the power from the Jade Spirit before, after a few days of non-stop cultivation, both of them had recovered to surpass the king-level combat power, and they could hear what they said next door clearly.
"Humph! My aunt doesn't care about this money, since this kid wants to find fault, she will be angry with him. "Yu Ling has never cared about things outside her body, no matter how much she bids next door, she will have to pay another 1,000 gold anyway, and before she knows it, this necklace has been priced at 20,000 gold.
"Young master, if you continue, I'm afraid the gains outweigh the losses." The housekeeper behind Chai Yusheng reminded that although Chai Fushang was very pampered and indulgent to his son on weekdays, he was afraid that spending such a large amount of money to buy a necklace would probably be quite complaining.
"Tsk, this bastard General Qian, who doesn't know where he came from, Young Master Ben must make him look good, and when the auction is over, he will directly send someone to ask them to hand over the necklace, what Young Master Ben wants is not available yet." Chai Yusheng was furious, their father and son were quite famous in Tianlong City, but it was not a good aspect, but a very bad reputation, but because of the great wealth, coupled with the collusion with the dignitaries, he has always walked sideways, and no one dared to go against him, and now a general who has never heard of it suddenly appeared, and he dared to grab something from him, isn't this looking for death?
"Humph! Pissed off this little bastard. Yu Ling finally auctioned this silver cross necklace for 20,000 gold, although it didn't cost a little money, but she didn't care at all, anyway, this tone was to win.
"Okay, let's leave him alone, the most important thing now is to find out who this seller is, and then ask where the thing came from." Qianyunyue had a hunch that this cross would bring unexpected gains.
"General Qian, this is the jewelry you photographed, please accept it." The steward sent the necklace, Yuling had already prepared the auction money, and also rewarded an additional 500 gold according to Qianyunyue's instructions, and the steward's thousand thanks whispered a few words in Qianyunyue's ear, and then withdrew.
"What did he tell you?" Yu Ling asked curiously.
"The seller of the necklace, and ...... Beware of the rich young master next door. Qian Yunyue smiled, he had already greeted the steward, as long as it was something he auctioned, he would tell the seller to him, although according to the rules of the auction house, the seller's information could not be revealed, but money can make the ghost grind.
"I'm curious about how the young master next door is going to make us hand over the necklace." Yu Ling smiled evilly.
"Okay, what's the fight with this kind of ordinary person." Qian Yunyue waved his hand, carefully observing the cross necklace in his hand, he found that there was a very unique aura left on it, "We have to find this seller as soon as possible,"
Now that their purpose had been achieved, there was no need for them to stay any longer, so the two walked out of the VIP room to leave. At this moment, the door next door suddenly opened, and Chai Yusheng walked out with a few big men.
"Your Excellency is General Qian? Young Master Ben is the young owner of this auction house, and he is very interested in the jewelry in your hand, so leave it to Young Master Ben. Chai Yusheng heard that his subordinates were coming to report that Qianyunyue was leaving, so he hurriedly brought someone out to intercept him, and his tone of voice was very arrogant, not polite at all.
However, Qian Yunyue didn't even look at him, and walked straight to the stairs with the jade spirit.
"You dare to ignore Young Master Ben, you are looking for death!" Chai Yusheng was annoyed and ashamed, and with a wave of his hand, several big men immediately rushed up.
Before Qianyunyue could act, Yu Ling couldn't help it, "Get out!" ”
A wave of sound swept by, and several big men flew out like rags, not only that, but the voice of Yuling could be heard in the entire auction hall, and the people on the first floor looked up curiously, just in time to see the strange scene of Chai Yusheng being hit by the oncoming big man.
If it weren't for Qian Yunyue reminding Yu Ling, these people would probably be dead, and he didn't want to cause trouble, it would be very annoying to deal with.
"Isn't that Young Master Chai? What's wrong? ”
"Who are those two? dared to make a move on Young Master Chai, this is a big disaster. ”
"The big man in Tianlong City is going to be angry, run!"
The auction hall was in chaos for a while, and people fled in a hurry, as if some disaster was coming.
As soon as Qianyunyue and the two walked out of the auction hall, they were surrounded by a group of people, and a round middle-aged man at the head stepped forward and asked viciously, "You injured my son?" Don't you know who Lao Tzu is?! ”
"I don't know." Qian Yunyue glanced at him and replied lightly.
"Very good, I don't even know someone from me, and I dare to come to Tianlong City, and I will let you know the fate of having no eyes today." Chai Fushang raised his hand and waved, "Come on, break this man's hands and feet, throw him outside the city, and take the woman back to the house directly." ”
"Can I kill these people?" Jade Ling frowned.
"No, just teach them a lesson, someone will deal with it soon." Qian Yunyue hurriedly stopped her, Yu Ling's shot was not light or heavy, but it was difficult to dissipate the anger in his heart if he didn't let her do it, he had already sensed that a team of people and horses was approaching not far away, it was estimated that it was the reinforcements of this rich businessman, and then there was also a force from the palace rushing to this side, it should be Long Yao who got the news and came to deal with this matter.
