"What? Another bid for private room No. 17 in the second row? 1 million? This... this is terrible!"
"Even the four major families can't afford so much money at once. Who are they?"
"What the hell is going on? One million taels of silver, my God..."
Seeing the sudden extra words on the jade sign, everyone rubbed their eyes for fear of mistaking it, but when it was confirmed that it was one million, the room boiled again!
1 million taels of silver, even the four major families cannot afford it. Who is this and how can he have so much money?
One must know that he has already spent 200,000 taels on the purchase of Twin Lotus Flower, and now he has taken out another 1 million taels. So, he has taken out 1.2 million taels. People can't help but guess who is in the private room No. 17 in the second row!
"I don't believe he has so much money. I ask for capital verification. If he doesn't have so much money, I will help you kill this liar without you taking action!"
Just when Yang Jun was feeling triumphant and thought the dust had settled, he saw the handwriting that appeared, and he almost died out of anger! Unable to bear it anymore, he punched the window and let out a roar!
He was going crazy. He risked his family's bankruptcy and offered a huge price of 700,000 yuan. He thought he would definitely be able to beat the others to get this flame axe.
Who would have thought that room No. 17 from the second row would come out halfway and crush him so hard that he couldn't even breathe?
One million taels of silver... When did Luo Shui City gain such an outstanding person?
As for the capital verification he mentioned, it is also a common thing at auctions. When the value of an auction item exceeds a certain amount, in order to prevent someone from disturbing the order with a verbal check, capital verification must be carried out on the person who proposed the auction!
The buyer can only continue the auction if he has sufficient funds. Otherwise, he will be punished for disturbing the order of the auction. Even if he is killed, no one will say anything!
Yang Jun proposed capital verification, and the person in charge of the auction house also hesitated.
Although capital verification is disrespectful to the auction buyer, in order to avoid the auction house losing money, it can only be done this way!
"What should we do? Why did you quote such a price? If they verify the capital, we don't have that much money and we will definitely be killed!"
In the private room No. 17 in the second row, Yang Yan's face was full of anxiety. He couldn't figure out why the always wise Nie Yun would quote such a price!
Previously, they defrauded Li Fu's family of 8,100 kilograms of gold, which when converted into nothing more than 810,000 taels of silver. Even if they add the 70,000 taels, they received from Nie Yu, the two of them only have 880,000 taels. How can they get one million?
What's more, they just spent more than 200,000 taels!
They don't have to buy it if they don't have money, but they quote this price. What if the auction house comes to verify the capital? How could the other party spare the two of them?
It seems that someone reported false accounts at this auction house half a year ago, but was found out and fell directly in front of the door and was strangled to death! This person's identity is even an inner disciple of one of the four major families, but this family dare not say a word!
Not to mention that he would be punished if he made a false report. Even his half-brother, who is the first heir of the family, would receive the most severe punishment from the family if he wrote a bad check in this auction house!
"It's over now..." Yang Yan, who has always been calm, felt that he was in big trouble this time!
"Don't worry!" Ignoring the anxious Yang Yan,
"Let's verify the capital. If the other party has this worth, the private room must have been replaced by someone else. He is a very important person. He may even be from the imperial capital. It would be more appropriate for me to go in person!"
The person in charge of the auction house was hesitating when he heard a faint voice in the room and then a young man walked in.
"Master Chen Xing, you are here..." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Xing, the first heir of the Chen family of the four major families, and the young owner of the Luo Shui Auction House, has a respected position, sticks to his word, and has an absolute say. When he makes a decision, no one dares to go against it.
Nie Yun smiled faintly, took out a jade tablet from his arms, pressed his palm on it, and in the blink of an eye made many mysterious handprints, like branding something.
"What are you doing?" Seeing his strange behavior, although Yang Yan was anxious, he couldn't help but ask.
"Of course, I'm making money. This jade token is now worth at least 400,000 yuan. People from the auction house will come over to verify the capital in a while, so you can just give it to them!" Throwing the jade token over casually, Nie Yun said with a smile.
"400,000? Are you talking nonsense..." How could a jade token be worth so much? Yang Yan scratched his head and was trying to see what was special about this thing when he heard a knock on the door.
"This distinguished guest, I am Chen Xing, the first heir of the Chen family, the young owner of Luo Shui Auction House. I have taken the liberty to come over for capital verification. I also hope that the guests will redeem themselves!" A gentle voice sounded from outside.
"Come in!" Nie Yun couldn't help being a little surprised when he heard that the other party actually sent the young master from the auction house, but he was not too surprised and asked Yang Yan to open the door.
"Dear guest, I'm really sorry. The main reason is that the price of 1 million for this flame axe is too high. Our auction house operates on a small budget, so...excuse me!"
As the young owner of the auction house, he naturally knows who is sitting in every private room. Although he had already guessed that it was not Nie Yu the inner branch disciple of the Nie family, he still couldn't help but be stunned when he saw two unfamiliar faces that he had never seen before.
But who is Chen Xing? After many years of experience, he has become a refined person and the strangeness in his heart does not show on his face at all.
"Haha, no problem, give him the jade token first, and let him verify how much it is worth!" In his previous life, Nie Yun had never been in contact with Chen Xing due to his low status. Unexpectedly, this man was neither humble nor arrogant, and he immediately came to admire him.
"Yeah!" Although Yang Yan didn't know why Nie Yun was so confident, he still handed over the jade token as instructed.
"An ordinary jade tablet... actually has a set of martial arts training methods printed on it?" After taking the jade tablet and casually scanning it, Chen Xing was startled and his expression immediately changed.
As the young owner of the auction house, he has seen a lot of good things. He is well-informed and naturally knows a lot.
Martial arts are a special skill that can allow transcend levels and exert combat effectiveness. It is very cherished, and there are even a few sets in the entire Luo Shui City! Martial arts, like battle techniques, can only be recorded in special jade tablets for martial arts, but now they are recorded in an ordinary jade tablet... It is simply incredible!
Ordinary jade tablets are very brittle. If you record pictures and text on them, they will break into pieces if you are not careful... Who can do this? What status?
Martial skills, like bloodline, are also divided into five levels: emperor, king, marquis, noble, and ordinary. The higher the level, the more precious and powerful it is.
Thinking in his mind, Chen Xing's eyes gradually widened and his whole body trembled as he glanced at the jade plaque!
The Yangtze River Tripple Waves, the noble high grade!
The martial arts skills on this jade tablet are actually of the highest quality for nobles!
Although he has not practiced, Chen Xing also knows that this set of martial arts is definitely among the best even among the top nobles!
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the shock in his heart, Chen Xing couldn't help but said: "I can't estimate the value of this jade token, but it is at least 400,000 taels. If you two can rest assured, I will arrange an auction now. Our auction house will only charge 5% interest on the money obtained from the auction!"
"Okay!" Nie Yun stopped talking and waved his hand casually.
"Excuse me!" Chen Xing turned around and walked out.
"You... sell your family's martial arts skills?"
Seeing Chen Xing walking away, Yang Yan realized what the boy's jade sign was. His eyes widened and he looked at him as if he were looking at a monster.
Battle techniques and martial arts are the most important things in a family. Once the family knows that someone is selling it, they will definitely treat the seller as a traitor!
"This is not the martial arts of our Nie family!" Nie Yun seemed to see his doubts and explained, "Okay, I will tell you these things later, just relax and watch the fun!"
"Nie Yun...you have changed!" After hearing the young man's words and thinking of the scenes he had seen today, Yang Yan realized that the gap between him and this young man was no longer just one or two points.
He took a deep breath to suppress the shock in his heart and said slowly: "But it turned out like this...I like it!"
He had long heard that the emperor of the Shen Feng Empire had super-powerful men who could carve things on ordinary jade tablets. He never believed it. Could it be that these two people were really from the imperial capital?
"The heads of the four major families all have martial arts skills, and they are all high-grade noble skills. Looking at the level of this martial skill, it shouldn't be too strong to record on an ordinary jade tablet!"
