Ye Qiu returned to his seat and sat down, with a big smile on his face.
He got a peerless divine weapon for just ten million. Now his mood can be described in one word –
Cool!
True Man Changmei’s eyes turned red with jealousy and said, “Little brat, you should thank me for getting the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“If it weren’t for me bringing you here, you’d still be looking at beautiful women at Tsinghua University.”
“Well, it seems to be the case. What do you want?”
Ye Qiu could see at a glance that this old thing wanted a benefit.
True Man Changmei’s eyes widened. “Little brat, what do you take me for? Am I the kind of person who likes to be greedy for small advantages?”
“Isn’t it?”
“Of course not.” True Man Changmei said with a righteous face: “I only like to be greedy for big advantages.”
Ye Qiu: “…”
“Little brat, this Great Xia Dragon Sparrow has too much murderous aura. It’s not a good thing to keep it by your side. Well, I’ll reluctantly help you keep it. How about it?”
“You want this knife?” Ye Qiu asked.
The Long-Browed True Man rubbed his hands and said with a smile, “Little brat, you already have an Emperor Sword, and this knife is redundant. How about giving it to me?”
”Wishful thinking!”
Ye Qiu rolled his eyes and directly refused.
”Damn it, so stingy.” The Long-Browed True Man said, “I almost died to help you, and you’re not even willing to give me a knife.”
Ye Qiu said, “As you said, this knife has too much murderous aura. If you carry it with you, you will only die faster.”
”I’m already a dying person. It doesn’t matter if I die earlier or later.”
”Since you’re already a dying person, what do you want the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow for?”
”To kill pigs!”
Ye Qiu’s mouth twitched.
The Long-Browed True Man said, “There are quite a few pigs raised in Longhu Mountain. I can just take it back to kill pigs.”
I believe you’re a ghost.
”Old thing, I have my own use for this knife. You can change to another condition.” Ye Qiu said.
”You little brat, you’re not even willing to give me a knife. Humph, so what’s the big deal? Let me tell you, in front of the Celestial Master Sword, no matter what Emperor Sword or Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, they’re all rubbish.”
”Then have you found the Celestial Master Sword?”
The Long-Browed True Man was so choked by this sentence that his face turned red and said, “When I get the Celestial Master Token, I will be able to find the Celestial Master Sword.”
Ye Qiu was a little surprised.
Could it be that there is some connection between the Celestial Master Token and the Celestial Master Sword?
Then, the Long-browed True Man smiled meanly again and said, “Little brat, since you’re reluctant to give me the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, then let’s change the condition.”
”You say.”
”Take me to have a meat feast tonight!”
Ye Qiu’s face instantly turned dark.
Just at this time, the host said on the stage, “Next, the third auction will be held. Please ask the staff to bring up the auction item.”
The item for the third auction was a blue and white porcelain vase.
Ye Qiu wasn’t interested and gave up on bidding.
Soon, the blue and white porcelain vase was bought by a collector.
Then, the fourth one, the fifth one…
A dozen auctions were held in a row, and Ye Qiu didn’t participate in any of them.
He had been keeping an eye on Young Master Zhang. Young Master Zhang had just bought three collections in one go and spent more than twenty million.
”Should we collect some interest back?” Ye Qiu’s eyes flickered a few times.
The Long-browed True Man noticed his gaze and asked, “Little brat, what bad idea are you thinking again? Let me tell you, don’t make extra troubles.”
Before Ye Qiu could speak, the voice of the host on the stage resounded throughout the audience.
”The collection to be auctioned next is a rather unique thing.”
”Just how unique it is, I won’t tell you for the time being.”
”I can give you a hint. This thing is an ancient relic. As for whether you can discover the value of this collection, it depends on everyone’s luck.”
The host beckoned, and the staff came to the stage holding a wooden box.
all widened their eyes, wanting to see what exactly was the treasure?
The wooden box was opened, and a stone brick appeared in everyone’s sight.
The stone brick was about three feet long and one foot wide, with an overall bluish-gray color, and it was also engraved with dragon and phoenix patterns.
“I thought it was some good thing, isn’t it just a brick?”
“It seems that it should be a Tang brick.”
Such a Tang brick is not valuable at all.
Everyone was greatly disappointed.
The host smiled and said: “Presumably everyone has recognized it. This is a Tang brick, but what I want to tell everyone is that this brick has an extraordinary origin. It comes from a princess’ tomb, and the patterns engraved on it are extremely exquisite, completely showing the style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. It is a rare fine product among bricks…”
“Now the auction begins.”
“The reserve price is one million, and each increase shall not be less than ten thousand. Now start.”
However, no one bid.
Obviously, everyone didn’t like this Tang brick.
The host’s face was slightly embarrassed.
Just then——
“Pop!”
Ye Qiu snapped his fingers and said: “Ten million!”
In an instant, the whole audience boiled.
“He actually spent ten million to buy a broken brick. What a prodigal son!”
“This kind of Tang brick, I wouldn’t even want it if it was given to me!”
“Perhaps, this Tang brick has some other mystery.”
“You guys should not forget that when that kid spent ten million to buy the Qisha Monument earlier, everyone also scolded him for being a spendthrift. Who would have thought that he would actually get a rare treasure from the monument.”
“That’s right. Old Chu said that the knife is worth at least four or five hundred million. He made a killing.”
“I think this Tang brick is not simple either.”
The speaker had no intention, but the listener had a heart.
Young Master Zhang heard everyone’s discussions. He stared at the Tang brick for a while and said, Could it be that there is also a treasure hidden in this Tang brick?
Otherwise, why would Ye Qiu offer ten million?
Young Master Zhang hesitated for a moment and said, “Ten million and one thousand.”
He was very cautious and only added ten thousand yuan.
Because he was not sure whether Ye Qiu was deliberately driving up the price or there was really a treasure in the Tang brick.
“Twenty million!” Ye Qiu immediately made a bid.
Young Master Zhang’s eyelids twitched. He could almost be sure now that there was a treasure hidden in the Tang brick. Otherwise, Ye Qiu would not look so determined to win.
“Thirty million!” Young Master Zhang no longer hesitated.
“Forty million!” Ye Qiu made another bid.
“Fifty million!”
In the blink of an eye, a Tang brick had been bid up to the sky-high price of fifty million.
“Sixty million!” Ye Qiu added.
“Seventy million!” Young Master Zhang continued to increase the price.
He had already missed the Qisha Monument. In any case, he had to get the Tang brick.
“Eighty million.” Ye Qiu added another ten million.
”Ninety million.” Young Master Zhang said loudly.
Hiss——
The whole audience gasped.
No one expected that a Tang brick would be bid up to the sky-high price of ninety million. Even the host was full of surprise.
Young Master Zhang looked at Ye Qiu provocatively, as if to say, if you dare to increase the price, I will continue to follow.
Who knew that Ye Qiu sighed and said, “I have no money.”
The host immediately asked, “Ninety million for the first time, ninety million for the second time, ninety million for the third time.”
Dong!
”Congratulations to Young Master Zhang for obtaining the Tang brick.”
Young Master Zhang couldn’t wait to say, “I’ll pay right away, hurry up.”
The staff immediately came to Young Master Zhang with the contract and the card swiping machine. Young Master Zhang paid the money neatly, and then quickly stepped onto the stage, grabbed the sledgehammer, and smashed the Tang brick in two or three strokes.
The next second, his face turned.
