The VIP auction room in the auction house is different from Ye Xiaochen's imagination.
It's not that kind of hall, but a luxurious room like a conference room.
There are rows of tables and chairs around, each with a group of people sitting.
A fiberglass round table and mahogany chairs are placed in the middle.
When Wang Shuisheng arrived, several people greeted him.
"Old Wang, you are only one short of you, and you are late."
"You have invited Mr. Feng, it seems that you are bound to get the small magic weapon this time!"
"Old Wang, who is the young man next to you, and you actually brought him here to see him!"
These few who greeted Wang Shuisheng were naturally not simple people. Their financial power and influence were no less than Wang Shuisheng's, and they were all the richest people in the world.
"Hehe, Ye Xiaochen, the top botanist in Yangshi, have you heard of it?"
Wang Shuisheng said with a smile.
"Ah, he is Ye Xiaochen. I heard that Ye Xiaochen is already a top botanist at a young age. I thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true."
The person who spoke was a strong, dark-skinned man. He glanced at Ye Xiaochen in surprise, and immediately cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Ye, I'm Dong Haitong in Xiatan City. Please forgive my blindness. Could it be that Mr. Ye is also interested in this small magic weapon?" "
"Hehe, even if you are interested, you can't afford it."
Ye Xiaochen laughed.
The small magic weapon that can be used in such a scene is naturally extremely expensive, and the price is tens of millions.
Others were very interested in Ye Xiaochen, and greeted Ye Xiaochen one after another. After all, Ye Xiaochen was in the limelight during this period, which naturally made many people very curious.
Suddenly, a person sitting across from him sneered, "It is said that Ye Xiaochen is a famous botanist. I don't think so. I don't know what kind of achievements and contributions you have to win this honor?"
As soon as this person spoke, many people present were stunned.
Wang Shuisheng also looked over, and said with a cold face: "Cao Xinhong, what do you mean by that?"
"It's nothing interesting. It's just a bit annoying. A brat who hasn't even grown hair yet dares to claim to be a top botanist. It's ridiculous. What's the matter, Wang Shuisheng, I didn't say anything about you. Why are you so excited? Maybe it's because he's taken a fancy to your deaf-mute sister."
This man named Cao Xinhong is of medium build and strong, with a gold necklace on his body, giving him the feeling of a nouveau riche.
His words were extremely vulgar, and he didn't give Wang Shui any face at all.
"Cao Xinhong, keep your mouth clean."
Wang Shuisheng patted the table and stood up with a gloomy expression.
The two were almost on the verge of fighting.
Everyone present knew that Cao Xinhong and Wang Shuisheng were the top three tycoons in Yangshi, but they had already had a grudge against each other, and when they met, they always had a strong sense of gunpowder.
Ye Xiaochen's eyes also turned cold, he didn't seem to offend this Cao Xinhong, did he
"Don't be impatient, both of you, this is the auction house, and there will be auctions later, so don't hurt your temper."
A silver-haired old man walked in with a cane.
Wang Shuisheng and Cao Xinhong, who were still tense at first, wished to have a full-fledged martial arts immediately, they both sat down immediately. It was obvious that the status of this old man was different, and both of them were extremely jealous.
Soon, the audience fell silent, only whispering.
Wang Shuisheng whispered to Ye Xiaochen about Cao Xinhong.
Only now did Ye Xiaochen realize how he had offended Cao Xinhong. It turned out that it was the matter of the expert group's investigation. Cao Xinhong's Xinhong Group was originally on the standing inspection list, but because Ye Xiaochen was directly deleted by the expert group, it was not even on the preliminary inspection list. go up.
After Cao Xinhong knew the reason, he naturally hated Ye Xiaochen, the instigator.
In addition, he and Wang Shuisheng are rivals.
Cao Xinhong thought that his company was removed from the standing inspection quota, Ye Xiaochen instigated it behind the scenes, and he could not be separated from Wang Shuisheng. Otherwise, why did he, Xinhong Group, be the only one removed from so many standing and reserve quotas
Ye Xiaochen was speechless. What does this have to do with him? It was the decision of the expert group. Wasn't he innocently tricked
"Everyone, it is not the first time that you are participating in the sale of small magical artifacts and the auction rules. The identification of the authenticity of this small magical artifact depends entirely on the auctioneers themselves. If there is a fake, we Tianyang Auction line is not responsible.”
The silver-haired old man had already walked to the round table in the middle and sat down.
Those present knew the rules of this kind of private auction. Private auctions will not be recorded in the auction records of Tianyang Auction House, and there is no need to pay taxes. Because of this, the bidding price is lower than normal, that is, Because the tax link is omitted.
Another important reason is that abnormal items such as small magical instruments are very difficult to identify, so they are not suitable for auction in precious auctions.
"There are three small magical artifacts in this auction, and now I will take out the first one for everyone to appraise."
Seeing that everyone had no objections, the silver-haired old man clapped his hands. Immediately, a cheongsam woman came out with a box, walked to the round table, put it down, and then backed out.
The silver-haired old man opened the box, revealing a gray gourd, as if it had been burned.
"This is a gourd that eliminates evil spirits. It is said that it is made of jujube wood split by 800 years of lightning, and it contains three grains of evil dates."
The silver-haired old man picked up the half-foot-high gourd, shook it slightly, and made a very crisp sound.
"Let me take a look."
A bald man suddenly got up and said.
He strode up, took the gourd, returned to his seat, and started talking with the people around him in a low voice.
After watching for four or five minutes, the bald man handed the gourd to another photographer.
In this way, everyone took turns appraising it.
It was Wang Shuisheng's turn.
Feng Xifan directly took the gourd in his hands, and began to comment on it lightly.
"Brother Wang, look, this is the thunder pattern left behind after the thunder strikes. It looks burnt yellow, but it contains the power of thunder to yang, and it is the best. It can be called the best small magic weapon. Psychic material."
Feng Xifan talked eloquently.
He took another flashlight and pointed it at the small opening of the gourd to check what was going on inside.
"Sure enough, they are three jujubes. After absorbing a lot of evil energy, they become evil dates. They are excellent materials for making insidious magic weapons."
Feng Xifan continued.
"Mr. Feng, these three jujubes are almost the same as fresh ones. How did you put them in?"
Wang Shuisheng also took a look and asked curiously.
"This is a long-lost secret technique. It is said that a jujube that has just been picked can be refined to a small enough size without harming the jujube. After dispelling the evil gourd, absorbing the evil energy, it will slowly recover, and eventually become like a fresh jujube."
Feng Xifan said.
"I didn't expect such a small magic weapon to have such a reputation."
Wang Shuisheng said with a sigh.
"Of course, the difficulty of making this evil-eliminating gourd can only be considered moderate. If there are high-level small magic tools, it is indescribably complicated, and it can be said to be priceless."
Feng Xifan said.
"Mr. Feng, is this evil gourd real?"
Wang Shuisheng asked quickly.
"The evil gourd itself is real. It mainly depends on the material, how many years of lightning-struck jujube wood, and whether the dates in the gourd are made by the lightning-struck jujube wood. Any problem will affect this elimination. The value of the evil gourd."
Feng Xifan said, "According to my judgment, the lightning-splitting jujube tree for dispelling evil gourds has been grown for at least five hundred years. Judging from the thunder pattern, it has been struck by lightning many times, and the three grains of evil jujube are purple in color. , average size, and with a peculiar silk thread electric pattern, the most important thing is that if the Shazao is different from the Xiaosha gourd, the power of eliminating evil will be greatly affected, and the Shazao will also appear shriveled. Now this Shazao is bright Plump, it can be confirmed that it is the same species as the eliminating evil gourd."
"So, this evil gourd can be auctioned?"
Wang Shuisheng's eyes lit up.
"Brother Wang, there will never be any problems with things that pass through my palm."
Feng Xifan said confidently.
At this time, Ye Xiaochen took the evil-eliminating gourd from Wang Shuisheng's hand. The gourd was woody and moist, as if the heat didn't dissipate, which was very strange.
Especially the three jujubes inside, as if they were just ripe.
The opening of this gourd is not big, even if the dates are dried, it is impossible to put them in.
It can be seen from this that the secret technique of refining fresh jujubes to a small enough size is no small matter.
Suddenly, Ye Xiaochen's expression changed, thoughtful.
