Vol V Chapter 42
The layout of the third floor was similar to that of a teahouse. The seats were arranged in an orderly manner, and there were some barriers between them. Although it did not completely separate everyone, it still ensured a certain degree of concealment.
This was to ensure that everyone could have a relatively private discussion environment when bidding.
Of course, there were no private rooms and the building itself was not big.
Xue Xue stood in the center, and everyone could see her graceful figure. A few young people who had come with their parents saw that the auctioneer was so beautiful, and they immediately became interested in this seemingly ordinary auction.
Lin Tian and Zhao Shi sat together in the second partition on the left. On the right were Xuanyuan Qingya, Xuanyuan Xing, and Jiang Yifeng. On the left were Bai Bing-er and Bai Ze.
It was unknown if it was a coincidence or if these two women did it on purpose. When they were choosing seats, they both chose the seats closest to Lin Tian.
If someone looked down at this small auction hall, they would realize that Lin Tian was vaguely surrounded by four beautiful women with different temperaments and styles.
Even Xue Xue, the auctioneer, was in front of him.
......
Sitting on the side of the stage with the old mister, Xue Xue gave a few simple opening remarks and started the auction without any hesitation!
"The first item."
Xue Xue looked around, a sweet smile appearing on her exquisite face. Her voice was light and gentle.
"Wang Xizhi,'Cursive Peace Calligraphy'!”
Hearing Xue Xue introduce the first item, Lin Tian's mind instantly buzzed!
lying| F * ck, was it really that auction?
Lin Tian had a deep impression of this auction.
According to the original text, this auction was actually the beginning of Jiang Yifeng's unification of the business world around Li City. After this auction, he entered a rapid expansion and annexation stage. The business world around Li City was basically swallowed up by him.
The reason why the original text set up this auction was to introduce the readers to the forces that would appear next, such as the Meng family of Ring City, the Li family of Tian 'an, the Zhou family of Li City, the Xingcheng Association, and so on.
However, in the original text, Jiang Yifeng did not appear with Xuanyuan Qingya, but with Bai Ze. At that time, the Zhao family had already become Jiang Yifeng's vassal. The only Zhao family member who appeared with Jiang Yifeng was Shang Chan.
Now, the plot had undergone a huge change.
As Lin Tian pondered, he realized that not only was the auction a few months ahead of schedule, but the participating forces were also different. For example, the Zhao family was still the top clan in Li City. For example, the Xuanyuan family even had the mysterious "Star Lord" Xuanyuan Xing present.
When he saw Xuanyuan Xing and Xuanyuan Qingya's similar appearance, he guessed the identity of that person.
Another example was that at an auction of this level, he was not qualified to enter. Jiang Yifeng also ran from the Bai family camp to the Xuanyuan family camp.
The last point was the auctioneer.
In the original text, when this auction was held, Xue Xue had already been taken into Jiang Yifeng's harem. Naturally, she wouldn't show her face to host the auction.
Therefore, the original text was still hosted by Old Mr. He.
Now, it seemed that Xue Xue had also become a variable in the plot.
Carefully analyzing the various situations in the auction hall, Lin Tian's expression had always been very cautious.
On the surface, it seemed like he was being attacked by the Zhao family.| He was surrounded by two golden flowers, one big and one small, and there were two beautiful women who were very interested in him. This should be a rather happy and contented situation.
But in fact, Lin Tian's nerves were already as tense as iron chains!
Lin Tian was really not interested in participating in such a scene where the male and female leads were fighting each other. Other than him, everyone else present was a big shot in the business world.
If you're not careful, you might lose your life.
Even if he did not do anything, if these female leads did something to him, Lin Tian could only wait for death. Jiang Yifeng was not very calculative.
If he really found out that Lin Tian had actually come into contact with the woman in his heart, then perhaps Lin Tian would officially evolve from a villain to a villain in Jiang Yifeng's heart!
Don't underestimate the protagonist's taboos in this kind of relationship between men and women.
While he was analyzing the situation, he was no longer in the mood to pay attention to the auction.
In any case, the most important items in this auction would only appear in the last secret auction. Two of them were even the key items for Jiang Yifeng's advancement of the Holy Physique!
What was the concept?
In the original text, Jiang Yifeng's main reliance was his master, the old Holy Doctor.
To put it simply, the Holy Doctor was quite famous in China. Many big shots owed him favors, such as Xuanyuan Xing, a certain military bigwig, and some other people with high authority.
These people cared about their face and promises. Jiang Yifeng only asked to go to his door, so they naturally had to return the favor of the old Holy Doctor and add fuel to the fire for Jiang Yifeng.
The second was his own physique!
The Holy Physique of the Heavenly Doctor should be divided into two parts. One part was the " Heavenly Doctor ", and the other part was the " Holy Physique ". The former allowed Jiang Yifeng to have no bottlenecks in the path of medicine and was naturally close to medicine.
Whether it was to save people or harm people, Jiang Yifeng had countless methods. This kind of mysterious medical skills had indeed provided Jiang Yifeng with great help in the original text.
As for the latter, the "Sacred Body" made Jiang Yifeng's personal combat strength extremely powerful!
It was so strong that in the later stages of the original book, Jiang Yifeng blocked the missile with his hand.
Although it was a little ridiculous, it also showed how strong the potential of a Sacred Body was!
One had to know that this was a f * cking urban white paper.
In the city, even if you could only lift a few people up and throw them away, you would be at the peak of your combat strength, let alone having the ability to block missiles with your hands.
And it was precisely this " Holy Physique of the Heavenly Doctor " that had advanced and strengthened in this small auction because of two items. The value of this auction could be imagined.
However, it seemed that only these two items were more important. The others were basically calligraphy, antiques, and antiques.
Lin Tian only wanted to pass this auction in peace and did not want to participate in anything. As for snatching the two items from Jiang Yifeng,
Wasn't this a joke?
Even the opportunity in the sandalwood incense box, Lin Tian thought for a long time before he made up his mind to fight for it. He even specially found a time when Jiang Yifeng would not appear.
Although the situation was a hundred million points wrong
And now? Jiang Yifeng was sitting next to a screen. Lin Tian sat there calmly. He analyzed and felt that Jiang Yifeng probably didn't know him. Only then did he have a certain level of composure.
At this time, you want Lin Tian to go up and snatch Jiang Yifeng's opportunity?
It was recorded in the original text that those two opportunities had a certain reaction with his Holy Physique of the Heavenly Doctor, which was why he made up his mind to take them.
If Lin Tian went to rob in this situation, he would basically be sending himself to the muzzle.
As long as he was not crazy, he would never do such a thing.
Don't think that Lin Tian is afraid or doesn't have the courage.
This was no longer a matter of courage. A protagonist who could crush Lin Tian like an ant was sitting beside him. How could Lin Tian have the confidence to compete with Jiang Yifeng?
System?
The system seemed to have died. It had not even given him a beginner's gift pack!
Transmigrator?
Lin Tian, as a transmigrator, probably had the only advantage of having a brain.
He asked himself honestly, he really did not have the qualifications to fight with Jiang Yifeng. No matter how bad he was, he was still the chairman of Feng Chen and the successor of the Holy Doctor. He could easily make a comeback with a wave of his hand.
Where was Lin Tian?
Other than the Xing Hai Investment Department, no, it was now the Security Department.
Other than his identity as the head of the security department, he had no money, no power, and no background. His father had passed away, and his mother was healthy, but the problem was that his mother could not help him!
Lin Tian's current identity was, after all, a small fry who died in the first ten chapters of the original text.
If he did not want to die, Lin Tian could only hide carefully. Otherwise, if he went against the hot shots, he would only die for no reason.
Thinking of this, Lin Tian suddenly understood. Perhaps this auction was held so early because Jiang Yifeng had suffered a setback in the Zhao and Bai families?
The goal should be to give Jiang Yifeng an opportunity!
......
Lin Tian's thoughts ran wild. Little did he know that a part of his thoughts had already been heard by Shang Chan, Zhao Mengmeng, Xuanyuan Qingya, and Bai Bing-er.
Four female leads and one male lead were all in this plot. It was comparable to an Asura Arena! However, it wasn't Jiang Yifeng's Shuraba, it was mine.
I'm numb! Wasn't Jiang Yifeng with Xuanyuan Qingya today? Why did he come to Eight Mile Street?
I shouldn't have agreed to Zhao Mengmeng's request just now. Why didn't I just run away? Wouldn't there be so many problems? Now that I'm sitting next to Zhao Mengmeng and Shang Chan, will Jiang Yifeng notice me? It should be. After all, the Zhao family should be his first target.
Sigh, Bai Bing-Er is also sick. When she came to look for me just now, she probably attracted Jiang Yifeng's attention, right?
Xuanyuan Qingya was the only one who looked normal, but why was her mother here? In the original text, besides being the Star Lord of the Star Group, Planet Xuanyuan seemed to have a top-level relationship with a certain military region? It was too chaotic!
The auction would probably take more than two hours. Sigh, there's nothing much to see in the previous auction items. They're just some calligraphy and antiques. Tsk, I'm also arrogant. I reckon that each of these items can be auctioned for a sky-high price. I actually don't take money seriously?
When Jiang Yifeng got his hands on those two items, there would really be nothing that could stop him in the future, right? Sigh, as expected of a hot shot. He had just suffered a setback at the hands of the Zhao and Bai families, and now he had immediately arranged such an auction.
Otherwise, I'd better resign. After Jiang Yifeng becomes strong, Xinghai and the Zhao family won't be able to withstand it.
......
Lin Tian's heart revealed too much information.
Shang Chan, Zhao Mengmeng, Bai Bing-er, Xuanyuan Qingya, and the others were all listening and analyzing the situation.
At the same time, Xuanyuan Xing also learned from his daughter that Jiang Yifeng had indeed used some underhanded methods on her. Xuanyuan Xing did not show it on the surface, but he was naturally furious in his heart.
However, the auction was still going on, and Xuanyuan Qingya said that he had no problem, so Xuanyuan Xing didn't act immediately.
As for whether Xuanyuan Qingya was really fine or not,
Of course it was impossible!
In a sense, even if the Holy Physique of the Heavenly Doctor had not been unlocked, Jiang Yifeng's medical skills were still top-notch.
And medical skills were just tools. Jiang Yifeng's ability to save people was strong, so his ability to harm people was naturally strong.
If he didn't pull out the golden threads that he had thrown into Xuanyuan Qingya's body, the thorns on Xuanyuan Qingya's hidden acupoints would be gone.| Xuanyuan Qingya's state of being infatuated would continue.
Even if the effect wasn't very intense, it would accumulate into a mountain!
After a few hours, if it was still not solved, Xuanyuan Qingya might be affected by some physiological reaction.
There were only two ways to get rid of this golden thread. The first was for Jiang Yifeng to help her take it out. The second was for Xuanyuan Qingya to place her "infatuated" state on someone else.
It sounded a little metaphysical, but it was actually a distraction that caused her body to be pierced.| It was just a way to vent.
Previously, Jiang Yifeng felt that Xuanyuan Qingya only had one familiar man by her side, so she would naturally pay attention to him.
The effect of the golden thread lasted for a total of ten hours. After the effect was completely over, she would naturally have a different feeling towards Jiang Yifeng.
The golden thread didn't have much effect on Xuanyuan Qingya, but he knew very well that there must be something wrong with the feeling of heat all over his body and the occasional palpitation!
But Xuanyuan Qingya didn't want to leave.
The main thing was that she still wanted to continue listening to Lin Tian's thoughts.
Moreover, she realized that as long as she focused all her attention on Lin Tian, those messy feelings would disappear. It was as if Lin Tian was a good medicine that could alleviate her symptoms.
The combination of the two caused Xuanyuan Qingya to say that she was fine, and Xuanyuan Xing was not in a hurry to make a move.
The mother and daughter sat quietly in the partition, watching Xue Xue introduce the items one by one, starting price, and hammering, but they never called out a price.
The Xuanyuan family did not care about these things.
......
On the other side, Bai Bing-Er and Bai Ze didn't do much either.
Bai Ze's trip was for Qi Baishi's " Book of Mountains and Rivers: Twelve Folds ". Before this item was up for auction, he didn't care about anything else.
Bai Bing-Er was busy analyzing the thoughts revealed in Lin Tianxin's voice, so she naturally wasn't in the mood to shoot anything.
Similar to Bai Ze, Li Siyi, the head of the Li family in Tian 'an, Zhou Wenlong, the head of the Zhou family in Li City, Luo Xiangguo, the chairman of the Xing Association in Xing City, and so on all had their own goals.
For high-end auctions like this, about a week before the auction, all kinds of items would be drawn into a book and handed to the people invited to participate so that they could have a goal in advance and mobilize funds.
However, not everyone had a goal. Among them, Meng Youqian, the head of the Meng family in Ring City, had no goal.
He was just rich!
At this moment, the Meng father and daughter were sitting three private rooms away from Lin Tian and the others. Meng Youqian smiled happily.
"Girl, what do you like? I'll give it to you!"
Meng Youqian's daughter, Meng Xiaoling, shook her head and bit her lip.
"Dad, why is Bai Bing-Er here?”
Meng Youqian held his breath and sighed.
"The Bai family is also a big family in Li City. There are five or six high-end items in the auction this time. It's normal for them to invite Bai Ze over.”
Meng Xiaoling pouted.
"It's not like you don't know that this woman is a demon who can naturally see through what others are thinking. Ever since that time, I've been afraid of her!”
Meng Youqian rubbed his daughter's hair and chuckled.
"It's okay. I'll avenge you. That Bai Bing-Er bullied you, so I'll bully her father. Anyway, the Bai family isn't as rich as us!”
Coincidentally, Qi Baishi's " Book of Mountains and Rivers: Twelve Folds " was brought up. Bai Ze began to bid, and Meng Youqian began to follow suit cheerfully. No matter how much Bai Ze bid, he would only add 100,000.
It's obviously infuriating
......
In the auction hall, the auctioned items flowed out from Xue Xue's hands one after another.
In this kind of high-end auction, the percentage of unsold items was not high, but it was still quite a number. There were a total of 20 items in the open auction, and 14 of them were sold. The highest price reached 640 million!
Lin Tian trembled as he watched from below. What the hell, what kind of people were these?
Any random auction item was worth hundreds of millions?
More than an hour had passed after all 20 items had been auctioned.
On the stage, Xue Xue bowed slightly and smiled.
"Next, it's the secret auction item.”
Lin Tian was instantly shocked!
He was here! If the situation here didn't change, then the first item to be auctioned in secret would be Jiang Yifeng's fortuitous item!
As he was thinking, he didn't expect that his thoughts had already entered the ears of the four women.
Shang Chan and Zhao Mengmeng stood up as well. Their expressions were strange, and no one knew what they were thinking.
Xuanyuan Qingya frowned.
"Jiang Yifeng's fortuitous item? Heh, does he still have the life to take it?"
Xuanyuan Qingya whispered to her mother Xuanyuan Xing.
"Mother, I want the first item.”
Xuanyuan Xing looked at her in surprise, but didn't say anything and nodded.
It was fine for the daughter of the Xuanyuan family to be a little willful. If she wanted it, he would give it to her.
On the other side, Bai Bing-Er also smiled and looked at her father.
"Father, I want the first item.”
Bai Ze nodded slightly. He had already gotten the " Book of Mountains and Rivers: Twelve Doors " that he wanted. Under Meng Youqian's interference, this item that could have been bought for only 200 to 300 million yuan had reached 490 million yuan!
His hobby was so expensive. If his daughter wanted to play, he would naturally support her.
"Alright, this auction item will be your birthday present. How about it?”
"Yes!"
Bai Bing-Er was no longer as lazy as before. She looked excited and nodded slightly.
Xue Xue stood on the stage and displayed the first item.
"The first item for the secret auction is twenty-four kilograms of agarwood wood. The starting price is thirty-seven million.”
Xue Xue's voice was crisp and clear. Following her voice, the partition between the seats below slowly retreated. This was one of the rules of the secret auction.
Lin Tian looked around and immediately became nervous!
