Chapter 22: Authority
Soon after the auction ended, several more items were auctioned, and then the first half of the auction had already come to an end.
It was also time to announce the results of the auction of the Nine Tricks Jade Worm, Fang Yu slowly walked out from behind the curtain of the auction table, her red dress fluttering with her steps, swaying her quiet beauty.
"Presumably, everyone is already impatient to wait, and they all want to know who photographed these nine-trick jade insects. After statistical collation, we have got the results. She paused, and then said apologetically, "However, not all of these guests are willing to reveal their identities, so we can only publish a partial list, I'm really sorry, and I ask for your forgiveness!" ”
Everyone didn't make any waves, everyone was transparent in their hearts, after all, it was something taken by someone else, and they didn't want you to know what could you do?
I know who it is, just to make myself feel better, maybe someone else is really lucky, or it's too rich!
"Zhongzhou Li family, Zhongzhou Bei Clan Chamber of Commerce, Zhongzhou Ji family, Zhongzhou Ye family and Medicine Valley Yun family."
The rest has not been announced, and it is basically difficult to know who it is.
"Next, we're going to start the second half of our auction!" Fang Yu smiled a little playfully, but then became frustrated, "Everyone has to seize the opportunity, after this auction of the Fang family, there will probably be no more auctions for more than half a year, hey, but I can't see you again." ”
Everyone at the auction table was stunned and then depressed: "That's really uncomfortable, most of us are here for Miss Fang Yu!"
"Because of this, we must cherish the present this time and not go home." One person sighed.
Later, someone chimed in: "What Brother Tai said is extremely true! We need to cherish the present. ”
One item after another was sent to the auction table, and Fang Yu auctioned them off one by one in an orderly manner. Perhaps due to some of Fang Yu's factors, the price of the transaction is much higher than the estimated price. However, Fang Yu didn't care at all, she just wanted to preside over the last auction of the year now.
"Now it's the last item to be auctioned, and it should be the moment that everyone is looking forward to the most." Fang Yu beckoned, and two sturdy men stepped forward with a wooden box, "This is what you are looking forward to, but unfortunately, our Fang family has not figured out the origin of this thing, so it is inconvenient to introduce its origin." ”
Fang Yu gently opened the wooden box with both hands, and there was a broken sword lying quietly inside. The blade was still about twenty centimeters long, and it shimmered with a cold glow, and the blade glowed with a faint, almost imperceptible red glow. The sword grid is square, with four legs and two ears, and is dotted with several deep black gems. The stem of the sword extends from the lattice of the sword, and it can be seen that it is changing from thick to thin, like the grip of a weighing rod, and there is no sword head.
"This remnant sword is the final auction item, although it is a remnant sword, but its sharpness is not broken at all!" Fang Yu held the sword stem, carefully took out the remnant sword and cut it at the piece of iron that had just been sent to the stage, only a slight sound, but found that the piece of iron had been cut in half. She carefully put the remnant sword back into the wooden box as it was, "This is probably the sharpest sword I've ever seen in my life, although it's broken, but I seem to be able to feel the breath of this sword, it's like a living thing!" Then there's the auction request, this remnant sword has no reserve price, in order to satisfy my curiosity, if anyone knows the origin of this sword, it would be nice to be able to tell me. ”
As Fang Yu settled at a bottomless price, the audience was in an uproar, such a sharp divine soldier was auctioned without a floor, I am afraid that many people should come to watch the play.
"Is that what he wants? After waiting for the whole auction, is it just for a broken sword? ”
Ye Hao held his cheeks and looked at the remnant sword on the auction table, although it was sharp, it shouldn't be used for the finale no matter how you look at it.
"Well, he said he wanted you to take it with all your might!"
"Han Yu, this is just a broken sword, why does he still want such a thing?"
"I don't know, I didn't ask."
"Also, your character won't ask even if you're curious, when I didn't say it."
In the private room, Fang Yu's mouth opened wide in shock, he had seen Fang Xun holding this broken sword many times, and he was fascinated by it. He never thought that his father would actually take it out for auction, isn't that his father's treasured thing?
"Oh? Fang Yu, do you know the origin of this sword? Bei Gu looked at the sluggish Fang Yu and asked softly, Zi Yi and Mu Luo also looked at Fang Yu at the same time.
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, hurriedly waved his hand, and explained, "How can I know each other, it's impossible to think about it." It's just that I've seen it at my father's place, and it's a little strange that I'll be stunned for a while. ”
"In that case, can I pretend to be forced again? There aren't many people who know the origin of this sword now, and you're really lucky to have met me, hahaha. ”
"Sell less, say it quickly."
"Okay, okay, come on, listen carefully, I'll tell you about the origin of this sword."
Beigu coughed lightly, like a big guy. But when he received the rolls of the three of them, he smiled again and stopped pretending.
"Have you heard of Shang You?"
Fang Yu shook his head, indicating that he didn't know at all. Beigu didn't think that Fang Yu knew, and Mu Luo was also at a loss. However, Ziyixiu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if she had thought of something.
"Are you talking about the strange man who wrote "On Business and Governance"?"
"That's right, it's him! And this sword used to be his sabre. It was given to him by the lord of that generation, and his name was authority, and he weighed the hilt of the sword. Since Shang You died, this sword has been missing, but now I think it should have been passed down secretly. The sword of Shangyou, Fang is upstream. ”
"It turns out that this is Mr. Shang You's sword, but it's a pity that it's crippled here."
"There's nothing to worry about, this sword is still broken." Speaking of the back, Beigu's voice was so low that it was almost inaudible.
Ziyi didn't hear it clearly, but she didn't ask again, but she vaguely heard Beigu say "It should be mutilated", should it be mutilated? How can a sword be willing to be mutilated and ordinary.
Since the sword was brought to the stage, Mr. Wen in the private room glanced at it and never opened it again.
"Mr. Wen can't look down on a broken sword? This is Mr. Shang You's former sword, and it is said that it hides a great secret! ”
"Lord Liang, don't be kidding, I don't understand these things. And even if it used to be Mr. Shang You's sword, now it's just a broken sword, the predecessors have been ancient, the rumors are light, what secrets are just false rumors, people are old, they won't care about these boring things. ”
Liang Wang Ye smiled, picked up the fragrant tea on the coffee table, and took a sip. looked at the auction table: "Since Mr. Wen doesn't care, let's take a break and wait for the auction to end, this should be the finale." It's a pity. ”
Mr. Wen closed his eyes and did not answer, as if he was resting.
"100,000 gold."
Finally, after a commotion, someone opened their bids, but then someone spoke again.
"110,000 gold!"
"One hundred and twenty thousand! 120,000 gold! ”
In a short time, the remnant sword of the finale became valuable in the sound of bidding from nowhere, and it even reached the price of 600,000 gold! 600,000 gold is enough for half a year's income in a small and medium-sized city! I'm afraid that some people know the origin of this broken sword, and if you want to take a picture of it, maybe it's for an unknown secret, or it's just a hobby, and someone deliberately raised the price.
Fang Xun listened to the sound of bidding in the auction hall, one after another. He raised his hand and looked at the empty palm. He looked at every palm print carefully.
"Send you away today, no one will bother my Fang family anymore, your secret does not belong to the Fang family, whoever likes to take it can take it."
Fang Xun suddenly turned his head and looked into the auction hall through the wall.
"A million gold."
At this time, Ye Hao didn't know when he had walked from the exclusive box to the second-class seat and sat down, he and Hanyu were wearing robes and masks. And the bid of just one million gold came from Ye Hao's mouth.
"This gentleman has bid a million gold, does anyone else want to increase the price?" Fang Yu saw that no one had opened his mouth to bid for a long time, so he said.
Surprisingly, no one opened their mouths to raise the price, and it seemed that one million gold was the limit of the value of this broken sword. Many eyes were staring at the remnant sword in the box on the second floor, but no one opened their mouths to bid.
"General Ji, this is Mr. Shang You's former sword, although it is lacking, but it is still qualified to start, don't you have a little idea?" The voice was still hearty, with a little smile.
"Mr. Wang Ming, don't talk nonsense, how can the authority of the Son of Heaven be grasped by my subordinates, don't say it again!" Ji Hanxing's face was solemn, and he was really unwilling to bid for this remnant sword, and he didn't dare to bid.
"It's a pity that my brother is shy in my pocket, and I don't have so much money, otherwise I must take a picture and take a closer look to see if there is really such a god and a big secret hidden!"
……
"Young Master An, we ......," the old servant asked.
"It's good to look at it, although the purpose of this trip is this broken sword, but my father explained, it's good to make sure that it changes hands, don't participate in its auction."
"Yes."
In the end, when Fang Yu announced that the remnant sword was photographed by Ye Hao, Ye Hao didn't react. He didn't expect this kind of finale to be photographed so easily. Although a million gold is a lot, there are countless things that the Fang family auctioned are worth more than one million gold, and the value of this broken sword is by no means more than that. He didn't feel a little flustered, as if he sensed something.
"Don't panic, after you go out, someone will take over this sword, and the two of us can't take it alone, and everyone who wants it is watching from upstairs." At this time, the cold words were quite calm, and it seemed that today's events had been predicted for a long time, and they were not surprised.
Ye Hao was skeptical, although for some reason Han Yu was so sure that the two of them couldn't take away the remnant sword, but he heard the danger after the end of the scene from Han Yu's words. It's better to be careful, "Well, you can take this thing, save unnecessary trouble." Ye Hao casually handed over the wooden box he had just sent over to Han Yu, neatly and neatly.
"This is the end of this auction, thank you for coming, our family is grateful, thank you for your support." Fang Yu bowed deeply to the seats and disappeared behind the curtain.
Next, this year's auction is over, Ye Hao lightly touched a white jade bracelet on his wrist, greeted Shang Hanyu, and strode out of the auction hall.
