Chapter 28
Courtesy Begets Courtesy, Sudden Enlightenment of Swordsmanship

“Ding! Ding! Ding!”

“Please be quiet everyone.”

Seeing that the auction site was getting chaotic, the host immediately struck the bronze bell.

However, her eyes also looked towards the second floor where Qiu De Kao was located.

Although she didn’t say anything, it was clear she was expecting something.

After all, the higher the price the auctioned items received, the higher the commission their New Moon Restaurant would earn.

“Shit.”

“Did A Ning’s information miss something?”

Qiu De Kao thought this in his heart, but his facial expression remained calm and collected.

“You have an old saying, a gentleman does not take what others desire.”

“Since Mr. Lin is determined to get it this round, then I won’t intervene.”

Qiu De Kao said.

The people present felt somewhat regretful, a thrilling battle over the lantern was missed.

“Heh...”

Lin Chuan let out a cold snort: “Looks like this old geezer still knows a thing or two.”

Jin Wan Tang also let out a breath of relief and said: “This way, the next two medicinal herbs should be able to be bought at a low price.”

It was indeed as he said, the bids for the next two medicinal herbs were very smooth.

Three million for one, and four million for the other.

Compared to the previous two, it was definitely a lot more cost-effective.

Yang Yi said: “So cheap...”

Jin Wan Tang explained: “Miss Yang, you haven’t seen how fierce the bidding was earlier.”

“The reason why the last two were cheap is because Mr. Lin pointed the lantern.”

“If someone doesn’t have a real need to bid at this time, it is clearly a sign of going against the lantern holder.”

Yang Yi nodded with an air of understanding: “So that’s how it is.”

But her gaze still unconsciously drifted towards the Jinhe on the table.

Lin Chuan saw what was on her mind and said directly: “Do you want this blue snake gall?”

Yang Yi said somewhat embarrassedly: “Um...blue snake gall, I’ve never eaten it.”

Lin Chuan pushed the Jinhe containing the blue snake gall towards her and said: “We’re fated in a way, if you’ve never had it, then take it back and try it.”

Yang Yi immediately said joyfully: “If that’s the case, then I won’t be polite, thank you, Brother Lin.”

“Ai...Lin Zi, when have you ever been so generous towards me?”

Wang Pang Zi felt sour seeing this from the side, several million worth of stuff, the other party just gave it away.

While the few were chatting.

The next auction item was already presented on the host’s stage below.

“There aren’t many items left in this auction.”

“Next is a famous sword from the Pre-Qin period, called Yuan Hong.”

“Starting price, 20 million, each increase must not be less than one million.”

“Now, bidding begins.”

As the crisp sound of the bronze bell rang out, a wave of bids began.

Many people were here specifically for this long sword.

“21 million!”

“25 million!”

“28 million!”

“30 million!”

The bids were endless, soon reaching 30 million.

“Lin Zi, the competition is fierce.”

Wang Pang Zi couldn’t help but exclaim: “This money is really burnt away with just a few words.”

Jin Wan Tang was also somewhat nervous: “The gentlemen on the second floor haven’t spoken yet, I’m afraid even 50 million won’t be enough.”

At this moment, a new bid came from the second floor.

“50 million!”

Liuli Sun spoke.

Whoa~

As soon as he spoke, the floor below instantly fell silent.

Directly increasing the price by 20 million.

It could be said that he directly blocked off any room for them to bid.

Because this sword, when appraised.

Was just a bit over 50 million.

For a while, there was no one who dared to bid again.

Lin Chuan was preparing to bid.

However, unexpectedly, Yang Yi beside him struck the bronze bell: “55 million.”

The first to react was Wang Pang Zi.

“Girl, are you crazy?!”

Lin Chuan also curiously turned his head, waiting for her explanation.

Yang Yi said: “This sword, I like it, so I bid for it, what’s wrong with that?”

Jin Wan Tang said: “Of course you can if you have money, but...”

Wang Pang Zi patted his shoulder, saying helplessly: “Don’t just say that, her parents are American tycoons, worth billions.”

Liuli Sun’s expression on the opposite side was somewhat gloomy.

“Little brother.”

“Earlier, I gave you face and didn’t bid for those medicinal herbs.”

“How about giving this old brother a break?”

When Yang Yi heard this, she immediately became unhappy and said: “An auction is about the highest bidder, and besides, I bid this price, why are you asking him?”

A fierce glint flashed in Liuli Sun’s eyes, then he shouted: “Good! Good, the highest bidder gets it!”

“I’ll go 60 million!”

Yang Yi didn’t back down: “65 million.”

“Sev...”

Liuli Sun wanted to bid again, but someone beside him spoke to him for a while.

“Hmph!”

After carefully thinking for a while.

He ultimately chose to give up and didn’t continue to bid.

“65 million, first time!”

“65 million, second time!”

“65 million, third time! Deal! Let us congratulate this lady.”

The host struck the decisive hammer, this famous sword had a new owner.

This famous sword from the Pre-Qin period.

After a short while, it was packed in a Jinhe and sent up to the private room where Lin Chuan was.

Yang Yi swiped her card.

Her facial expression didn’t change at all, as if 65 million was nothing to her.

After this.

Her next move was even more unmanageable.

“Brother Lin, you gave me the blue snake gall, I’ll give you this sword, it’s a return gift.”

Yang Yi pushed the Jinhe containing Yuan Hong towards Lin Chuan.

Fearing that Lin Chuan wouldn’t accept it, she added: “You and I are fated, this is what you said.”

“Tang Tang, return gift, you and I are fated, is that how it works?”

“Ai...I even wanted to bid for that fruit and give it to her.”

Wang Pang Zi and Jin Wan Tang looked at each other.

Lin Chuan naturally wouldn’t be coy.

There was no reason not to take the cheap stuff handed to you.

He opened the Jinhe.

The sword body and sword sheath were stored separately.

Two Qin small seal script characters were particularly eye-catching on the sword body.

Yuan Hong!

It was once the sword of the Sword Saint Gai Nie of the Qin Dynasty.

Truly a good sword.

Lin Chuan couldn’t help but look at it for a few more times, he liked it even more in his heart.

“Ding!”

“You have gained enlightenment from observing the Qin sword Yuan Hong, comprehending the Zong Hong Sword Art.”

The system’s prompt sounded at this moment.

Lin Chuan’s mind and limbs instantly overflowed with memories related to sword techniques.

Zong Hong swordsmanship.

It was the swordsmanship created by the first generation of Gui Gu Zi, divided into Zong Sword and Hong Sword, according to the way of Heaven and Earth.

Just in this instant.

Lin Chuan could already be considered a master of swordsmanship.

He closed the Jinhe and smiled slightly at Yang Yi beside him: “Thank you, this sword is perfect for me.”

Yang Yi smiled back: “You’re welcome, I like the blue snake gall too.”

At this moment.

New Moon Restaurant finally welcomed the last auction item.

It was the jade burial suit that Lin Chuan had Wang Pang Zi bring out.

It was now exquisitely packaged by New Moon Restaurant, presented to everyone.

The private rooms on the second floor.

Those who hadn’t bid for a long time now also came to their senses.

Their eyes were all fixed on the glass below.

It was obvious that most of them were here for this item.

“Today is the last item in our auction.”

“A gold thread jade burial suit from the Western Zhou Dynasty.”

“There is a detailed explanation of the item in the auction brochure, I believe everyone here who knows will understand.”

“Starting price, 100 million.”

“Single increase cannot be less than 5 million!”

“Bidding, now starts!”
