Ch122 – Seizing the Treasure from One’s Hands

Yan Tianhen nodded pensively and asked, “Then how much has he saved?”

Duan Yuyang said, “30,000 gold.”

Lin Xuanzhi’s gaze swept over Duan Yuyang.

Duan Yuyang laughed in embarrassment, “I mean, he was the one who reported a price of 31,000 gold, and that’s beyond my control! The one who calls the shots is the auctioneer, I can’t rush forward to interrupt the auction. That would be unreasonable.”

Lin Xuanzhi nodded, “You really are good at doing business.”

Duan Yuyang rubbed his head and his smile seemed even more embarrassed, “You’re too kind, too kind.”

Outside, on the auction stand, the auctioneer was grinning so widely that his eyes were about to turn into slits. Today, that Elder Han actually met with such a tough nut. That generous young man must be some young master from a certain big sect who was roaming about in his travels; adding 9,000 gold in one shot was such a grand sum that could never be done by the young masters in Qing city.

And now he could take advantage of the fact that he doesn’t understand the implicit rules of the Duan’s auction house, and doesn’t know that Elder Han could at most report 30,000 gold, so he would continue to engage in a bidding war with Elder Han.

In the room, Elder Han was so angry at Lin Xuanzhi that he ended up laughing instead.

“Young fellow, since you’re so rich and keen on pretending to be someone you’re not, then honourable Elder will let you have a good taste of what it means to ask for trouble!” Elder Han sneered and shouted, “49,000 gold!”

He sneered and waited for the other party’s offer. If the other party dared to raise his bid, then he would continue increasing his offer as well. He would like to see just how much money that kid had for his coffin!

However, just as everyone was waiting for Lin Xuanzhi to offer a higher bid to slap the face of this Elder Han who had a bad reputation in the auction house, that voice didn’t ring out for several seconds.

“He.” Lin Xuanzhi’s soft laugh travelled out of a room. He said indifferently, “Since the old gentleman likes it so much, then how could I seize his beloved item? That Flaming Cloud Stone is yours.”

Duan Yuyang uttered a pft and burst into laughter. He had no sympathy for the auctioneer at all. Lin Xuanzhi’s act of pulling the carpet from under his feet was truly cunning.

Outside, the auctioneer was still waiting for the guest to offer a higher bid, but he didn’t expect that he would get this kind of result!

The auctioneer’s heart jolted. Although there was at least 30,000 gold deposited in Elder Han’s gold card, but now, after a few auctions, it barely had 20,000 gold!

According to Elder Han’s usual behaviour, he definitely wouldn’t pay more than he had to as well. By then, if the auction house and the seller of the Flaming Cloud Stone were to want someone to take responsibility for it, it wouldn’t be a burden that a mere auctioneer like him could afford!


Below the stage, most of the guests revealed a look of disappointment on their faces.

“Ai, that person has been so arrogant and overbearing for so long, and I thought he had finally met a prickly match.”

“Yeah, I didn’t expect the other party to cower so quickly.”

That damn kid.

However, what made him angrier was what happened afterwards.
