Chapter 92: Fierce Auction

  Su Wen looked towards the auction stage and an old man walked up.

  The old man's face was kind and gentle, a type of person who could easily gain others' favor.

  "Welcome everyone to attend the monthly auction of Shengshi Auction House, now the auction is officially starting."

  The screen behind the old man lit up.

  The auction of Shengshi Auction House has never taken physical objects, all auction items will be photographed in advance and then displayed through multimedia. The purpose of doing so is to protect the safety of the auction items. After the auction, bidders can go to Shengshi Auction House to pick up the items they won, or choose to have someone from Shengshi Auction House deliver them, which is also the reason for filling in the name and address earlier.

  The first item is a black pearl.

  "This object is called the Huiyan Pearl, a treasure born from a rare sea creature in the ocean. The effect of the Huiyan Pearl is extraordinary, grinding it into powder and applying it to the skin can restore one's youthful complexion. However, after that, the skin will still slowly age, and about three months later, the skin will return to its original state."

  Su Wen was slightly shocked, this time Yan Zhu was absolutely a treasure.

  "If you want to have the perfect complexion of your youth in a short period of time, this thing is absolutely indispensable. Alright, I won't say anything more, the auction starts now, starting price 10 million, each bid increase must not be less than 2 million."

  For the sake of three months' beauty, many people are still willing to spend this money.

  Soon, someone made an offer.

  "Lot 2201 is priced at 2 million!"

  "Lot 1569 is priced at $2.5 million!"

  "No. 5896 quoted at 32 million!"

  ……

  The price finally soared to 12 million.

  Su Wen was tongue-tied, this is the world of the rich.

  The second item appears.

  The third item appears.

  ……

  The seventeenth item appeared, which was a Water Spirit Grass auctioned by Su Wen.

  "Water Spirit Grass, one of the Heaven and Earth Treasures, can be used to treat some heat-based illnesses. It can also help someone refine their spirit and cleanse their marrow. Additionally, it is a key ingredient in refining Marrow Washing Dan. This Spirit Grass is provided by the Treasure Pavilion, and everyone can now bid on it. The starting price is 100 million, with each increase not less than 1 million."

  Everyone was slightly stunned, what is Jibaozhai?

  The old man had introduced many things before, but none of them mentioned who provided them. This time, when introducing the water spirit grass, he added this sentence. Jingbao pill is absolutely a new term for everyone, and 90% of people have never even heard of it.

  But some people still know about it.

  "Jiangning seems to have a shop called Juba Zhai, could it be that very Juba Zhai?"

  "This Jibaozhai is also considered lucky, and it actually had the good fortune to pass the audit of an item. Based on this alone, many antique shops in Jiangning will be left behind."

  "When you have time, go to the pawnshop and take a look. If they can bring out such treasures, maybe there are other treasures too."

  ……

  Everyone whispered for a while, and someone over there had already started bidding.

  "Quote 46,960,000 for No. 4696!"

  "Lot 9663 is priced at 12 million!"

  "Quote 8963 for 15 million!"

  "Lot 1112 is priced at 27 million!"

  Everyone was shocked, and the price was raised by almost a fold in one go. It seems that 1112 is a must-have.

  "Lot 8963 is priced at 30 million!"

  "Quote 1112 is 36 million!"

  "Lot 8963 is priced at 39 million!"

  "Lot 1112 is priced at 50 million!"

  ……

  "Quote for No. 1112 is 69 million."

  "Grandpa, who is 1112? He's too rich!" Cheng Jin was both indignant and shocked.

  "We can't get any more money out of our family, it's pointless to keep arguing." Cheng Da Feng sighed and said, "Let's just give up! Let's go back!"

  "Hmph!" Cheng Jin let out a cold snort, his anger evident.

  ……

  The twenty-fifth item is three drops of Yuanyang Water sent by Su Wen's proxy bidder.

  Needless to say, many of our male friends have already shown their appreciative smiles. This treasure that can enhance a man's masculinity is absolutely priceless!

  "That's all I have to say, Yuan Yang Shui is well-known to everyone. What I want to emphasize is that this Yuan Yang Shui is also provided by Ju Bao Tang. Now the auction begins, starting price 10 million, each increase in price should not be less than 1 million."

  Jubao Studio, is it Jubao Studio again?

  Many people were shocked and unconsciously remembered the name of Ju Bao Zhai in their hearts.

  "Quote 300 million for No. 8885!"

  The first bid was 30 million, and there's no need to say more, as everyone started bidding.

  "No. 5222 quoted at 33 million!"

  "Lot 6331 is priced at 36 million!"

  "No. 7789 quoted at $45 million!"

  ……

  "Lot 6331 is priced at 90 million!"

  "Quote 100 million for No. 7789!"

  Su Wen was shocked, in less than three minutes, the bidding exceeded thirty times, and the price of San Tian Yuan Yang Shui skyrocketed to one billion, it can be seen that many people must have this thing, but in the end, the highest bidder won.

  The bidding started at 100 million yuan, and many people gave up on the auction.

  The old man was about to announce the result when bid 6331 reached 1 billion and 10 million.

  Immediately, No. 7789 quoted 120 million.

  No. 6331 fell silent, a five-second countdown began, and No. 6331 never raised the price again.

  The old man announced the result: "Congratulations to No. 7789 for getting Yuan Yang Shui, congratulations!"

  The two items that Su Wen had auctioned off brought him a total profit of 1.89 billion, and he was completely drunk.

  The items being auctioned off below are naturally becoming more and more precious.

  The last one, a thousand-year-old purple ginseng, was finally sold for 200 million.

  Su Wen hastily left the Sheng Shi auction house. After the auction, the people at Sheng Shi would immediately transfer the money to him, so he wasn't too worried. After he left, a woman walked towards the Sheng Shi auction house.

  She is No. 1112, the one who took a photo of water spirit grass.

  Su Wen walked towards his own residence.

  The night was dimly lit, and a figure followed behind Su Wen. The figure was Lin Liyun.

  Su Wen seemed to have sensed something.

  In a secluded alley.

  "Who are you and why are you following me?"

  "Boss, don't you recognize me? I'm Lin Liyun."

  "Is that you?" Su Wen looked over under the dim light and found it was indeed Lin Liyun. "You still haven't answered, why are you following me?"

  "I'm here to kill you." Lin Lixun was blunt and unparalleled, "Actually, I am an assassin, I took a mission about you, today I came to complete the task."

  Su Wen's expression turned somewhat solemn: "If you want to kill me, then you shouldn't have told me. In a situation where I'm not on guard, you would have had the best chance of succeeding. Now that I know your intentions, it won't be easy for you to kill me."

  "How would you know if you don't try?"

  "You're really a strange assassin, I wonder how much the employer paid?"

  "Thirty million!"

  "Only 300 million, that person who wants to kill me is too stingy. Let me think, is it the Sun family or Li Sanxie?"

  Lin Liyun looked at Su Wen without any worry, her interest growing thicker.

  "In that case, let's make a deal," Su Wen thought of a good idea. "If you can kill me, you can naturally get the 30 million yuan reward. If you can't kill me, I won't make it difficult for you either. You go and help me kill Li Sanxie."

  "You hire me to kill people?" Lin Liyun was shocked, he didn't know what was going on in Su Wen's mind.

  "Killing Li Sanxie is just your life-saving money, otherwise you would have failed in the assassination. Why should I let you off? If you really want to make some money, you can go assassinate someone from the Sun family. I don't know how many people are in the Sun family in Kyoto, but there must be over a dozen. You just need to kill one of them and I'll give you 10 million, what do you say?"

  Lin Liyun was somewhat unbelievable, he didn't think Su Wen would mention such a condition.

  "No matter how you look at it, this is all beneficial for you, aren't you going to agree?"

  Lin Liyun looked at Su Wen and nodded: "Good, I agree!"

  Su Wen couldn't help but smile: "That's right, now you can assassinate me."

  Lin Liyun felt extremely awkward, but he still took out his own weapon, a black dagger with a cold glow.
