According to Duan Qianzheng's information, the auction was jointly organized by the Scrophulariae Sect and several wealthy businessmen.The items in the auction include not only antique calligraphy and paintings, jade treasures, but also martial arts secret books and famous swords and treasure armors that are most popular among Jianghu people, so countless people flock to them.After the auction is over, half of the turnover will be donated to relief flood victims.It's also a charity auction.

"What is the item that the Scrophular Ginseng School is going to auction?" Qu Yan thought while pinching his chin.

Duan Qianchun said: "No information has been released. But I can get it out when I find the location."

"Take it?" Qu Yan was dumbfounded, "Is that called stealing?"

Kong Yunluo nodded, "It's not a bad idea."

"This is a crime." After Qu Wen finished speaking, he thought it was nonsense, they were killers.Although stealing is the fastest way, the loss of the finale of the auction will inevitably cause a commotion. When the time comes, they are holding things and asking to meet, which may attract the attention of many people, and maybe they will be banned for obstructing the auction. Enmity does more harm than good.

"It's just a joke." Duan Qianyu said expressionlessly, obviously what Qu Yan could think of, he naturally wanted it too.

"The auction will be in two days." Duan Qianjun said, "During these two days, An Sheng will stay in the inn, so don't wander around."

Qu Yan nodded obediently.

Nothing major happened in these two days, and the group who had been taught by Duan Qianjun did not come to seek revenge, but Yuan Yi also came to this inn the next day, saying that he had slept in the open, and finally found a room with Empty inn.

On the day when the auction started, Yuan Yi and Qu Wen went there together. The venue was at the largest restaurant in Bai Yue City. Before entering the venue, they had to pay an entrance fee of 50 taels, and a deposit of [-] taels to prevent visitors from just joining in on the fun.

Duan Qianzhen paid the money, and the three of them walked towards the door, Qu Wen turned around and found that Yuan Yi had not come together.

Yuan Yi smiled awkwardly, "I won't go in. Qu Fan, tell me later what rare things there are."

"Why all of a sudden..." Qu Yan suddenly understood that Yuan Yi was probably nervous and couldn't hand over the 55 taels.

Duan Qianchun said, "I'll do it for you."

Yuan Yi quickly waved his hand, "How can this be done? Thank you Uncle Duan for your generosity, but I have received your kindness many times, but I have never repaid it. I am really sorry... Sigh, I am afraid that if I bother you again and again, it will only consume friendship. That's all, that's all. "

Yuan Yi bowed his hands to them, then turned and left.

Qu Fan felt quite uncomfortable, but he also admired Yuan Yi more, and it could be seen that Yuan Yi cherished the fate between them.

"What are you looking at?" Kong Yunluo said displeasedly, he tugged at Qu Fan's sleeve, "Follow."

As soon as he entered, Qu Yan was startled by the splendor and brightness of the lobby of the restaurant. For a moment, he even thought that he had returned to modern times. The building is well-lit and the floor is made of smooth marble. From the beams to the tables and chairs, everything is bright and clean. It is brand new, and you can see the second floor when you look up. The people sitting on it seem to have unusual identities. There are servants again, and the conversation is also reserved.

Qu Fan looked around, there were about a hundred people on the first floor, and they could be divided into three categories based on their clothes. Occasionally, there is a flash of light; the third category is high-ranking officials and nobles, whose clothes are not conspicuous, but their demeanor is alienated and reserved.

The identity of the people on the second floor is unknown.

Qu Yan and his group attracted attention because of Kong Yunluo. After all, no one would bring a child on such an occasion, and it was a child with arms hanging.

Kong Yunluo stood quietly beside Qu Wen, turning a blind eye to the eyes of others.

They sat in the second-to-last row of the lobby, and the wooden sign held by Qu Wen read "One Hundred Thirty Five". It was the first time he participated in an auction in his life, and he felt a little nervous.

After half a quarter of an hour, the auction officially started. The master of ceremonies announced the rules of the auction on the low platform directly in front of the lobby. There was no microphone, but his voice was very loud, as if it could be heard in the ear.

Increase the price by at least five taels of silver, do not maliciously drive up the price, do not fight before the end, do not rob, and those who violate it may be punished.

The first auction item is a guqin made of high-quality golden nanmu...

Qu Fan knew that he had traveled all over the world for more than a month. Although there were many ordinary things, he had never seen any of the things displayed in such a high-class place.He looked at it very seriously, trying to tell the appearance and origin of these treasures to Yuan Yi when he went out.

Compared with his monograph, the two next to him, one big and one small, were less interested.

When asked, Kong Yunluo lazily replied: "The beams of my bedroom are made of high-quality golden nanmu, and the moonlight pearls and jades, filling a cart full, are not as valuable as the night pearls in the cart."

Duan Qianjun said: "The warehouse of the Xiao family is not as good as it is."

Qu Yan: "..." I'm really embarrassed, only he is a country bumpkin.

"If you see something you like, take a picture of it." Kong Yunluoyun said lightly.

If Mr. Kong said these words, Qu Dianbao would definitely be thrilled for thousands of girls.But these words were said in Luo Luo's face, and in Qu Fan's eyes, there was only a contrast between pretending to be old-fashioned, so he replied in a serious manner: "Then thank you, Master Luo Luo, for the reward."

Kong Yunluo gave him a sharp knife.

Two quarters of an hour passed, and there were nearly ten auctions, all of which were antique porcelain vases, precious calligraphy and paintings, exquisite and expensive, and collection-like decorations. They were all bids by wealthy businessmen, and occasionally officials made noises, but overall it was not enthusiastic. It can be seen that None of them are here for that.

"Lot No. 15, an ink jade abacus. This abacus is made by the master Su Zao. The frame, rails, and beams are all made of black rosewood, and the 91 beads are extremely precious ink jade produced by Ximi... "

The master of ceremonies boasted about the rarity of Moyu, and he looked unparalleled in the world, but Qu Yan was a little tired after listening to the introduction for more than half an hour.But looking from the side, Kong Yunluo was still tired, but Duan Qianjun sat up straight, with a focused and dignified expression.

The starting price of ink jade abacus is 500 taels.

Duan Qianxuan held up a placard to ask for the price: "700 taels."

Qu Wen took a deep breath, and the first person who hadn't heard the price bid directly raised it by 200 taels. It seems that Duan Qianzhen is bound to win this abacus.

"The next gentleman asked for 700 taels, is there anyone higher than him?" said the master of ceremonies.

After a while, another person raised a sign: "750 taels."

Duan Qianzhen said without hesitation, "900 taels."

"900 taels! That gentleman bid 900 taels!"

"950 taels!"

Duan Qianxuan: "One thousand five hundred taels."

Finally, there was a small commotion in the lobby. Even if it was an extremely precious item, the bidders would add up the price slowly in order to get it at the most reasonable price. There is no one like him who adds a few hundred taels up.Take a closer look at this person's clothes that are not obvious, his face is plain, and he doesn't care about rich people. Could it be that he deliberately disrupted the rules?

In the end, as expected, this thing was taken down by Duan Qianjun.

Qu Yan was surprised for a while, but Duan Qianjun didn't count, why would he want such a precious abacus?But soon he realized that maybe he bought it as a gift?

Qu Yan leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Duan, is this going to be given to Mr. Xiao?"

Duan Qianjun seemed caught off guard by being pricked, with an unnatural expression on his face, "Why should I give it to him?"

"Because you usually don't use abacus at all." Qu Wen said, "Mr. Xiao, I remember that he is in charge of the account of not returning to the villa."

Qu Yan said again: "And you two have a good relationship, apart from him, I can't think of why you would spend so much money to buy that abacus."

Duan Qianjun was angry, "I just bought this abacus for collection because it is rare, can't I? Also, I have no relationship with that person, okay."

Qu Yan was at a loss, "Really? Mr. Ke Kong told me that you belonged to Mr. Xiao."

Duan Qianzhen was stunned: "The owner?"

Kong Yunluo couldn't bear it anymore, and pushed away Qu Wen who was half-pressing him, "Don't talk about irrelevant things."

An hour and a half into the auction, Qu Yan yawned and looked sleepy. He felt uncomfortable in his buttocks, changed a comfortable position and accidentally touched Kong Yunluo's hand, and was immediately pinched on the back of it.

"Aw!" Qu Yan yelled in a low voice.

Kong Yunluo's expression was unkind, and he ignored him.

The reason is that Qu Wen also photographed two things, one is the top tea Xiashan Dahongpao, and the other is a Buddhist bamboo fan inscribed by a famous artist.Needless to say, Xiashan Dahongpao was a gift he brought to Ruan Yu.But that fan was actually meant to be given to Feng Li!

Kong Yunluo decided not to help Qu Familiar with a penny, making him look bad.

Another half hour passed.

"One Dingling Pill, from the Scrophulariaceae School."

As soon as the words came out this time, Qu Yan felt the atmosphere in the entire lobby suddenly changed. Although no one fell asleep, everyone seemed to be awake.

"This pill can last a person's life." The master of ceremonies' introduction was extremely short, because as long as he mentioned the effect of the medicine, it was impossible not to be hot.

The starting price of Dingling Wan is 1000 taels.

Immediately someone shouted: "One thousand and one hundred taels!"

Almost without a pause, the other side said: "One thousand two hundred taels!"

"One thousand five hundred taels!"

"One thousand five hundred taels!"

The bidding sounds came and went, and the scene was so hot that it was completely different from the previous two hours.

The wealthy businessman bid the hardest, raising 200 taels at a time.However, some people in the rivers and lakes use their strength secretly, and the sound of asking prices contains internal strength. Ordinary people feel dizzy and feel very uncomfortable when they hear tinnitus.

The pill was bid for a quarter of an hour, and finally fell into the hands of a wealthy businessman at 500 taels.

As soon as the Scrophulariaceae pie came out, the highest price in the audience was bid.

The hearts of those who missed it were unhappy, but they quickly regained their strength and waited for the next lot.

The next one is Millennium Ginseng.This ginseng grows in the veins of Scrophulariae Mountain, absorbing the spirit of heaven and earth, and can cure all diseases.

The starting price for two long hair-length ginseng whiskers was also 500 taels, and the final transaction was 700 taels.

Qu Yan asked in a low voice, "Aren't we going to make a move yet?"

Kong Yun said calmly: "Not yet."

After that, the precious pills and medicinal materials were bought at high prices.

"The next lot is the last one in today's auction!"

"Cultivated by the green lotus medicine field of Scrophulariae Mountain, it can be used as medicine and nourish the body. It is a thing that prolongs life——medicine jade!"

Kong Yunluo raised his eyes.

Qu Yan couldn't believe it: "Such a coincidence?"

The starting price was still 500 taels, but this last item did not arouse as much enthusiasm as the first four items. After all, medicine jade is not what everyone needs, and it can be replaced. Many people sighed in disappointment.

Duan Qianxuan held up a placard: "550 taels."

Someone followed: "600 taels!"

"620 taels!"

After all, it is something from the Scrophulariae sect, if you can get it at a low price, you will definitely not lose money.

But after 1000 taels, there were fewer people raising placards, and those who bid even higher were ten taels and 20 taels, except for Duan Qianjun.

"One thousand and seven hundred taels, is there anyone higher than this?" the master of ceremonies asked loudly.

Duan Qianchun said, "2000 taels."

This time, no one followed.

Qu Yan was secretly happy, if they won it for 2000 taels, then they would be able to make money and save trouble.

"2000 taels! This gentleman bid 2000 taels! Is there anything higher than this? 2000 taels once, 2000 taels twice, two thousand..."

"Three thousand."

A low and rough voice said.

From the second floor.

Kong Yunluo's expression suddenly turned cold, this voice belonged to the person who stole that day and night!
