"Honored guests, there is a special meaning to the second round of the auction.”
"There are a total of three items for auction this round. These three items are not only very special and precious.”
"It is also related to the marriage of Mr. Changsha Bai Jing, the heir of the New Moon Hotel, Miss Yin Xinyue.”
"If Mr. Bai can bid for one of the items, Mr. Bai will be the first betrothal gift for the marriage of the New Moon Hotel.”
"Let us congratulate Mr. Bai in advance for successfully auctioning the item.”
He had just witnessed Bai Jing's magnanimity. Now, he wanted to see his wealth.
Some of them admired him, while others were ready to see Bai Jing make a fool of himself. After all, Bai Jing had just made a big splash.
Some people liked it, but there were naturally some who rejected it.
"Honored guests, the three items for this round are Qilin Dry, Deer Living Grass, and Blue Snake Gall.”
"Because these three herbs are very precious, the preservation method is special. In order to ensure the efficacy, they will be kept by the New Moon Hotel during the auction.”
"This round, we'll use brocade boxes as the unit. The highest bidder will win. We'll use a blind auction to conduct the auction.”
As soon as the emcee finished speaking, Second Old Master's expression changed. Blind filming?
However, his target was only the Deer Living Grass. The other two herbs were indeed very precious, but he did not need them.
Moreover, he only had enough money to buy Deer Grass.
They were all good friends, and it was precisely because of this relationship that they did not want to involve money.
However, the current situation was beyond Second Master's expectations.
"Master Bai, this…"
"We want all three herbs. One to treat the illness and two to propose marriage! This time, I owe you a favor.”
"Master Bai, you don't have to say anything else. If you need my help in the future, feel free to ask. Even if it's a mountain of blades or a sea of flames, I won't hesitate.”
There was no such thing as Bai Jing owing him a favor. It was just Bai Jing's beautiful words.
Bai Jing was the one who found the news about the deer grass and the tickets to the New Moon Hotel.
As for the engagement, Bai Jing had told him when he first entered Beiping that he had lost this memory for some reason.
In other words, Bai Jing did not know about this at first.
Without Bai Jing, he could only rely on luck. But with Bai Jing, the medicine was guaranteed.
Moreover, he had also said that Bai Jing only needed to bid for one, and it would be enough. Because he was here, he needed to bid for all three herbs.
"Now, let the bidding begin."
The gong sounded, and the intense bidding began. Most of the guests on the second floor came for these three herbs, so the competition was naturally very intense.
The starting price of 200,000 yuan (1 yuan =10 copper yuan, also in yuan) rose to 1,000,000 yuan in less than a short time.
At this moment, the people below the stage also began to discuss the origins of these three herbs.
Although the people attending the auction today were all dignitaries, they were all famous figures in Beiping.
However, these three medicinal herbs, if one did not specially investigate or accidentally heard of them, one would not know of their existence at all.
Because it was too rare, it belonged to the kind of treasure that could only be encountered by chance.
The price continued to rise crazily without any signs of slowing down. The people on the second floor were clearly on the verge of killing.
However, Bai Jing did not move at all, making Master Eight a little anxious.
"Lord Bai, aren't we going to the arena? From the looks of it, it would cost at least 300,000 yuan.”
"If you can see it, how can others not know? The person who really wanted to bid for the three medicinal herbs, 300,000 yuan was the beginning of the show. Don't be anxious, don't be anxious.”
Bai Jing wasn't in a hurry, but Second Master was. 300,000 yuan was the starting price, so what was the final price?
400,000? Five hundred thousand? Or more? Not only was Second Master a little anxious, even the servant girl sitting in the private room with Yin Xinyue could not help but clench her fists.
This medicine was too expensive. There was a moment when she thought that she was a scourge and delayed Second Master's thoughts.
It was all thanks to Yin Xinyue's presence that she was comforted and reassured. She said that Bai Jing was also present and that Bai Jing would definitely make a move to propose marriage.
The price gradually rose, and was about to reach the limit of 300,000 yuan. The only ones still bidding were Peng Sanbian and the Cherry Blossom Country Chamber of Commerce.
Peng Sanbian was here to cause trouble. He didn't want to see Bai Jing comfortable. He had just lost face, so he wanted to take the lead and show the people at the auction how rich he was.
As for whether Bai Jing's target was this medicine or not, was it important? This was a betrothal gift. Bai Jing was still a man, so he would not allow anyone else to win the first item.
Peng Sanbian knew that he had lost face, and it was not something that could be bought back with money, but he could spend money to drag Bai Jing into the water.
Bai Jing looked at Peng Sanbian, who was gloating, and knew why most of the items in the first round of the auction were from the White Pavilion.
So this was Father Yin helping her as much as possible within the rules.
"Master Bai, it's 300,000.”
"Eighth Master, tell them to light the sky lantern!”
Bai Jing's words stunned Master Eight. What was going on? The main dish has just been served, and you want to flip the table?
"Master Bai, what do you mean by lighting the sky lantern?”
"Second Master, you should know the meaning of lighting the sky lamp, right? This trick is commonly used in pear gardens and can also be used in auctions.”
Er Yue Hong nodded and explained the meaning of lighting the sky lamp to Lord Zeng. At the same time, she was relieved.
Regardless of whether or not the deal was made, at least his attitude had reached this point.
"Master Bai, Second Master, Lord Zeng, do you want some?”
"Yes, Lord Myna, thank you for coming.”
"It's settled. Since everyone trusts me, I'll light this sky lantern and burn this dome. Host, light the sky lantern.”
Bai Jing had never made a move since the beginning of the auction. The only bid he made was to light the sky lantern, which really shocked some people.
Even Peng Sanbian, who wanted to suppress Bai Jing, was stunned on the spot, a little at a loss.
Was this Master Bai from Changsha that tough? He lit up the sky lantern right away. Was he going to let others play?
"Host, our Chamber of Commerce will also light the sky lanterns.”
The Chamber of Commerce of the Cherry Blossom Country also lit a lantern. It seemed that they were going to compete with Bai Jing. This was what Bai Jing wanted. Otherwise, how could he know where the property of the Cherry Blossom Country's Chamber of Commerce was stored?
The bells on both sides had not stopped ringing ever since the sky lanterns were hung up.
400,000, 460,000, 480,000, 500,000. When Bai Jing called out 500,000, the Cherry Blossom Country Chamber of Commerce stopped.
"Congratulations, Master Bai, for obtaining the first item.”
After the host finished speaking, Peng Sanbian came back to his senses. He had forgotten to bid just now. Otherwise, he would have cheated Bai Jing.
"Master Bai, I'll give you the extra 20,000 yuan when I get back.”
"Second Master, Chenpi has already paid for it in advance. Have you forgotten that Chenpi has been outside the tomb for a period of time?”
"Is it Chenpi? This child has suffered. All these years, he has been running around for the girl's illness. Sigh.”
