Quick Wear: After Binding to the Super Rich System, I Was Urged to Spend Money
Chapter 37: Famine victims also have to spend money (9)
The auction starts soon.
A servant carefully brought up an object covered with a red cloth and placed it on the display stand.
"Dear guests, the first item for auction is a rare silver fox cub..." The auctioneer began to introduce, and the servant beside him lifted the red cloth.
Inside was a small silver fox, curled up in a corner of the cage, looking around in horror and whimpering softly, looking weak and helpless.
Xu Yan couldn't help but think of Qiqi, the snow fox in the zoo where he gave gifts in the previous dimension. They were so similar and just as cute.
As the auction began, people started bidding in groups of three or four.
"What's so good about taking pictures of silver fox cubs? When they grow up, we can use their fur to make fox fur coats."
"The lady is right."
Although the soundproofing of the private room was not very good, it was still okay to speak in a low voice. Apparently, the people in the next room were not so discerning and the noise was quite loud.
"Yueyun, I'm here to buy the whole thing today. Do you know what this means?" Xu Yan asked Yueyun to come closer and whispered in her ear.
Yueyun was stunned at first, then nodded in understanding, with a firm look in her eyes, "Master, I will definitely get this done."
Xu Yan: ???
She didn't seem to have given him any important mission, did she? Why did he look so willing to sacrifice himself?
When the number of people bidding downstairs gradually decreased, Yueyun immediately picked up the sign, gently struck the gong and drum, and shouted loudly, "One thousand taels."
The people in the audience heard the sound of a gong coming from upstairs and turned their heads to look.
The box was dim, and I could only vaguely see two women, but I couldn't see anything else clearly.
After all, he was wearing a mask on his face, so unless he was someone he knew, he would be able to tell by just listening to his voice.
The sound of gongs and drums represents the determination to win, no matter what the price of the item is.
"This is only the first lot, why are the people in the box leaving now?"
"Maybe he likes the silver fox cub so much."
"The people in the box are bidding and they're ringing the gong. We definitely can't win the competition, so let's just give up the bidding."
The people in the audience were talking about it, and most of them gave up on continuing the auction. A few also gave up after Yueyun raised the bid again and again.
After bidding on five items in a row, the people in the audience became numb to the sound of the gong again and again.
Whose gong is struck for every lot? In the past, the gong would only be heard for the final lot of an auction, but now it is struck again and again, as if it were a wholesale sale.
Xu Yan was eating melon seeds and watching Yue Yun and others bidding with great interest. When his mouth felt a little dry from eating melon seeds, he drank some tea.
There are six boxes on the second floor, and so far only one of them has competed with her. There are 20 lots in total. Could there be more attractive ones later?
The prices of the items became higher and higher as the auction progressed. Some people in the audience could not sit still anymore. They didn’t buy anything after they came, and they could not afford to buy any more items because of their financial resources.
A few of them exchanged glances, became bolder and began to maliciously raise the price.
The goods with a market value of 5,000 taels were raised to 10,000 taels by them. Xu Yan raised the corners of his lips and laughed sarcastically.
He raised his hand to signal Yunyue not to bid so quickly. The people below were bidding so high? He didn't know if they could afford it.
Although all those who come here are wealthy, they certainly do not have that much liquid capital, and the money they earn has to be reinvested.
How could she be willing to purchase items in excess? She didn't compete with him at the front but jumped up and down at the back.
"Three, two..." The auctioneer's countdown voice sounded.
Although it was already the beginning of winter, sweat was pouring down the forehead of the auctioneer below the stage. He just wanted to teach this person a lesson. It was her fault for buying all the previous lots and causing them to make a wasted trip.
But when he saw that he was really going to take the picture, he became scared again. He couldn't afford so much money at the moment, not to mention that it was not worth the price at all.
He looked towards the box on the second floor with a pleading look. He was really scared. If he had known, he would not have gone against them. The people in the box on the second floor were not people he could afford to offend.
Xu Yan sighed. Although she really wanted to make the other party suffer the loss, the system had given her the task of taking care of everything. So when it was almost time, she gave Yue Yun a look.
When the countdown was about to end, the man heard the sound of bidding from the second floor as he wished. He breathed a long sigh of relief, and when he came to his senses, he felt weak all over.
Fortunately, if I had really bid it back at a price much higher than the market price, not only would I have been scolded to death by the tigress at home, but I would also have to sell all my property to be able to afford it.
The auction on the stage continued, and people in the private room on the second floor also began to bid.
When the auction was halfway through, someone from the Treasure Pavilion came to the box with the items she had bid for earlier.
Xu Yan knew that the other party was afraid that she could not afford the price, so she settled part of the payment first.
Before coming, Yueyun had already been given the wooden box with the money in it. When she saw the people from the Treasure Pavilion coming, Yueyun took the wooden box to settle the bill.
When the people in the Treasure Pavilion saw the wooden box full of silver bills, they looked at each other, then smiled, took the silver bills and left the box in panic.
With so many banknotes, there is nothing to worry about. Even if the other party pays for it all later, the money is enough.
After taking the fox cub out of the cage, Xu Yan thought that the fox would at least make a fuss, and she was prepared to be scratched. Unexpectedly, the little fox lay obediently in her arms after she took it out, and licked her hand with its tongue.
Xu Yan: Love it, love it.
"Master, this silver fox is so cute!" Yueyun watched from the side, her eyes full of love.
She carefully reached out her hand and touched it. Probably due to malnutrition, the fur was still a little rough. The little fox took a look and continued to lie in her arms.
"06, look, my Hakimi, quickly check for me what foxes eat?" Xu Yan called the system frantically in her mind. This was her first time keeping a pet and she was really confused.
[Host, foxes are carnivorous animals, and they mainly feed on rodents, fish, frogs, clams, shrimps...] 06's voice came slowly, and Xu Yan wanted to take a notebook to write it down.
Seeing that there were only five items left for auction, everyone in the box started to bid, and no one was willing to give in.
What is being auctioned now is a land deed, and the price has reached two thousand taels of gold.
The location of the title deed is very good, no wonder everyone in the box made a bid. After all, such a location is excellent whether for business or residence.
"Four thousand taels of gold." Xu Yan said casually, and Yueyun shouted loudly after hearing it.
Instead of everyone hesitating and raising the price a little bit at a time, it would be better for her to just be straightforward and double the price.
The entire auction house was silent for a moment. After a few seconds, Xu Yan heard the voice from the next box, who had previously heard the price of 4,100 taels of gold. Then he heard the other party say loudly:
"I am Wang Weiyue, the eldest daughter of the Wang family. I would like to ask if you can give me a favor and let me transfer this land deed to my daughter. If you allow me, I will treat you as a guest of honor in the future."
