Douluo: A Century-old Legend I Am the Second Uncle Chenxin

Moon Tower

The blond young man raised his eyebrows slightly, with a playful smile on his face: "Interesting, interesting. After such a unique art performance, there is an auction of treasures. Which genius in your Chen family came up with this idea?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zixiu smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "Senior, these are just the children's ideas. Who told us that our Chen family has a poor foundation? This time we are leaving the mountain, the expenses are high, and we don't have many connections. It's not easy to make some money."

As he spoke, he sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

The corners of the blond young man's mouth twitched slightly. He glanced at the treasures being displayed on the auction table in the distance and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This is still a show? The Chen family has a weak foundation? Then what is being auctioned now? ! Chen Zixiu is so lucky to say that.

The blond young man glanced at the auction site, his lips curled up slightly, and he said in a somewhat joking tone: "Meteoric vine, new life vine, Azure vine...you have stirred up a hornet's nest of vines."

Chen Zixiu stood aside, his face calm as water, but his heart was surging.

He took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound steady and natural. "We have had our auction items in stock for a long time, and we are close to the Shero Mountains. As the saying goes, we live off the land."

The blond youth smiled slightly, his eyes were sharp: "Purple Ganoderma, Wine Ganoderma, Water of Life, it seems that your wood secret realm is quite rich."

Chen Zizheng was about to open his mouth to explain, but was interrupted by the blond young man who raised his hand.

The blond young man shook his head with a bit of pride on his face: "You don't think I don't know that your family has a wood secret realm."

For many things, what matters is experience and intelligence.

As a person who has experienced this, the blond young man knows this very well.

The Spirit Hall has several secret realms, and even their Qian family has a secret realm of its own.

He knew the existence and value of the secret realm better than anyone else.

Chen Zixiu's heart tightened, but he remained calm: "No way, Senior, the secret realm thing is just a rumor spread by others, they are jealous of our Chen family."

He responded in a relaxed tone, the main point of which was denial.

However, in this silent contest, everyone knows that acknowledging the existence of the secret realm means exposing the family's secrets to the other party.

Of course, it’s okay to admit it to other acquaintances, but you should be more cautious when it comes to the Spirit Hall.

Seeing Chen Zixiu's smiling face, which was three parts clever and seven parts shameless, the blond young man was slightly stunned.

But he didn't expose it directly. He just chuckled and said, "Haha, Zixiu, the items being auctioned below are worth more than 10 million gold coins, right?"

Although they were in the Moon Watching Tower, which was two or three hundred meters away from the Duke's Mansion in a straight line, and with the distance between the platforms in the square, the total distance was five or six hundred meters, but Zhu Yanfeng's loud auction voice could still be heard clearly by the three top figures on the continent.

Chen Zixiu smiled awkwardly, touched his nose and said, "Well, they are all old items. If we weren't going to sell them, we wouldn't be auctioning them like this."

"Besides, Senior, ten million won't last for more than a few years."

His words revealed a bit of helplessness and the pressure of reality.

In fact, the amount of behind-the-scenes transactions between Chen Yu and his subordinates, Ye Xiuxin and Chen Xun, is almost reaching 30 million gold coins.

This does not include Zhu Baiwan’s agency fees for the last two years.

The goal of their Chen family is to raise 50 million yuan in funds, otherwise why would they put these treasures up for auction?

If the blond young man knew that their fundraising goal was 50 million, he would definitely frown.

As a top family, the Chen family has considerable wealth and assets, but their liquid funds are not necessarily sufficient. They only have two to three million gold coins, which is obviously far from enough for large-scale investment.

For example, the Chang'an Medicinal Materials Market requires a starting capital of five million gold coins.

Although other parties also invested a lot of money, the Chen family still felt stretched.

Therefore, at this critical moment, Chen Xiaojun proposed to hold the auction at Jinshou, and this proposal was immediately approved by the family council.

After all, these funds will be used for plans such as expanding into multiple markets, especially the medicinal materials market, which needs to be quickly expanded across the mainland, and things like the Spirit Research Department also require capital investment.

Once these plans are on track, they cannot be interrupted during the Chen family's rising period.

After all, in this world where strength is respected, if you want to gain a foothold and develop, you must have sufficient resources and funds to support you.

The Chen family's auction was undoubtedly a wise move. It not only raised funds but also demonstrated the family's heritage and strength, killing two birds with one stone.

………………

At this time, Zhu Yanfeng had already started the third plot unit of the banquet, which was the traditional banquet program - martial arts competition!

Of course, these are usually teenagers. Even if adults don't get along with each other, they rarely fight at other people's banquets.

Zhu Yanfeng stood in the center of the banquet hall and announced loudly: "For this competition, our Chen family has also prepared special gifts. As long as you beat the two people of the same level in our Chen family, then our Chen family will..."

Before he finished speaking, a red light suddenly flashed, attracting everyone's attention.

I saw a young man in a red jacket leaping up like the wind and standing steadily on the ring.

The boy had slightly curly red hair, eyes as bright as stars, baby fat on his tender face, and fair skin.

When he smiled, the corners of his mouth curved into a charming arc, making him look energetic, uninhibited and flamboyant.

He laughed loudly, his voice full of confidence and arrogance: "After waiting for so long, I just happened to be full, so I'll go out and move around, hahaha!"

Seeing this, Ma Zhibin slapped his forehead and explained to Chen Xiaojun awkwardly: "He is the third child of my eldest brother Ma Zhichong, the youngest in the family, Ma Liang."

"Looking at him like this, you can tell that his brain is a little...special."

The general process is that after the host finishes speaking, the host’s children will be the first to go on stage.

Chen Xiaojun raised his eyebrows, looked at the energetic young man on the stage, and complained in his heart: "Ma Liang? This guy is not Ma Liang at all."

"No, Uncle Ma," Chen Xiaojun suddenly said, "I remember my father said that your family's names all have three characters, don't they?"

Hearing this, Ma Zhibin sighed helplessly, "So he is special."

"His original name was Ma Lianghua, but he changed his name to Ma Liang himself."

"He said the 'Liang' in the middle includes his brother and sister, so he changed his name to Ma Liang, so that he could represent the new generation alone."

After hearing this, Chen Xiaojun couldn't help but chuckle, "Is this possible? Is it so weird?"

"Very weird." Ma Zhibin shook his head helplessly, "Take this time for example, I didn't intend to bring him here to avoid him causing trouble and embarrassing himself."

"As a result, he came here before we even set out, and the whole family was very anxious."

"The child is only ten years old and has never been out of town before."

"Oh, this is really amazing, very courageous." Chen Xiaojun exclaimed.

"Who says he isn't?" Ma Zhibin smiled bitterly. "He has been lawless since he was a child. There is nothing he dares not do."

"It seems that he has been favored since he was a child." Chen Xiaojun said thoughtfully.

"Yes, he is very talented, with outstanding innate soul power and physical fitness, so he has been favored since he was a child." Ma Zhibin sighed, "My brother, my sister-in-law, and my old man all treat him like a treasure and spoil him in everything."

"By the time we realized what was happening, his character had already been formed. Now the whole family is having a headache."
