At the beginning of the year of famine, the lucky girl of the farm family used cheats to support the

He walked briskly towards Fu Bao's table and bowed, "Miss, are you here to participate in the treasure auction?"

Fu Bao sat still, slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea: "I heard it was interesting, so I stayed to see it. When does it start?"

The host smiled and said, "Soon, everyone will be here in a quarter of an hour, and then we'll start."

Fubao nodded to show that he understood, and the boss retreated.

Yi An was stunned. Although the boss would not drive them away on weekdays, he would not be in a good mood. Today, he looked so fawning. This was the first time he saw him.

There were more and more carriages outside, and the people in the teahouse were all dressed in silk and satin, and it was obvious that they were either rich or noble.

Yi An looked at the boss who kept smiling and wondered, "Isn't he the boss? Why does he have to keep trying to curry favor with others?"

Fu Bao: "These are his bread and butter. If he offends any of them, it's another matter whether his store can continue to operate."

Soon, a dozen waiters carried the display racks covered with red silk and walked onto the stage that had been set up in advance. The private rooms and the main hall of the teahouse were all full of people. There was also a group of onlookers blocking the door, but they were blocked outside by several strong guards who were as strong as a small mountain.

The gong made a clear sound.

The host began to introduce his treasures: There are ten treasures in total for today's auction, and the highest bidder wins. The highest bidder will have a rare treasure I brought back from overseas as a prize.

The first two pieces were ornaments worn by women, mostly jadeite or something, which Fubao was not interested in. It could be seen that they were of good quality, but there were not many bidders, so they were sold for three hundred taels.

Afterwards, the dagger that could cut through iron like mud, the purple lightning sword, and the bronze tripod were exhibited...

Fu Bao fell in love with the dagger at first sight. The starting price was eight hundred taels, and he immediately raised his hand and said, "One thousand taels."

When the price was called out, Yi An, who was standing next to him, was so frightened that he choked on his tea and coughed for a long time before he recovered. He lowered his voice and asked tremblingly, "One thousand taels! Do you have that much?"

Fubao gave him a look to reassure him, and then his eyes were filled with determination to get the dagger.

The dagger was obviously not a common one. Several waiters at the door of the box shouted, "One thousand and one hundred taels."

"One thousand two hundred taels."

"One thousand five hundred taels."

……

Seeing such a high price for a dagger, Yi An's eyes were full of confusion: "Is this dagger made of gold?"

Fu Bao chuckled and said, "It's much cheaper if it's made of gold."

One thousand five hundred taels, no one bids. The boss is about to announce the deal, but Fu Bao opens his mouth slowly: "Two thousand taels."

The people around her inadvertently looked at her, and when they saw a little girl of about eleven or twelve years old, they were a little stunned, but they had all seen big scenes, so they quickly concealed the surprise in their eyes.

The boss was grinning so hard that his teeth couldn't see his eyes, and he happily shouted "two thousand taels!"

A voice came from the upper box again: "Two thousand one hundred taels."

"Two thousand three hundred taels."

Fu Bao frowned slightly and whispered to Yi An: "A dagger, do you have to raise it so high?" But he thought about the rules again. Only the one with the highest bid will win the prize, so...

Thinking of this, Fubao simply said, "Three thousand taels."

The air around them suddenly stagnated. Three thousand taels to buy a dagger was a bit exaggerated even for them. After all, it was not as famous as Zidian. It was just a tool.

The upper box bid again, "Three thousand three hundred taels."

Fu Bao was a little annoyed and said directly: "Four thousand taels!"

Now the people around couldn't sit still and whispered: "What's the difference between this dagger? It's just sharper..."

The upper box also fell silent. Just when Fu Bao thought he had won the bid, he made another offer: "Four thousand five hundred taels."

Fubao frowned. In today's bidding, she had to stand out and make the boss remember her deeply and attract her.

So, Fubao was not polite and waved his hand: "Five thousand taels!"

Five thousand taels to buy a dagger. The people around stood up one after another, and a few young people sat down directly: "Miss, you are not from Yuezhou."

The local noble families were all from the same class. Even if they were not familiar with each other, they were all somewhat friendly. In a place like this where they were having fun, no one would think that. So someone like Fu Bao, who was so young and could take out five thousand taels to buy a useless dagger, instantly attracted their attention.

Fubao nodded: "I came from Yuzhou, and there's nothing interesting here."

After saying that, he looked at the host and said, "This dagger should be mine, right?"

The host came back to his senses cheerfully, packed up the dagger and placed it on her desk.

The bidding for the treasure continued. Zi Dian was not very attractive to Fu Bao, but the bid was very high. When it exceeded five thousand taels, Fu Bao joined in at the right time.

"Five thousand five hundred taels."

"Five thousand eight hundred taels."

……

Fu Bao looked at the people around him bidding one after another, sat up straight, and opened his mouth and said "eight thousand taels", which made the people around him quiet down instantly.

Most of the people who come here are rich young men and women, who come here to have fun with their pocket money. Five or seven thousand taels is already a very high price. Unexpectedly, Fubao had just bought a dagger and could continue bidding with them.

The bid in the upper box was: "Eight thousand five hundred taels."

Fubao felt that it was a bit boring. After comparing all these times, she just wanted to see what the prize was as soon as possible so as to attract the attention of the boss.

So she stopped hesitating and said directly: "Ten thousand taels."

The air was silent for a moment. Several veiled women nearby said in disbelief, "Ten thousand taels? Is she playing house? Why would a woman buy a sword?"

The light in the Dong family's eyes became brighter, and he looked at Fubao as if he was looking at the God of Wealth: "Miss, what is your name? This Zidian is worthy of its reputation for being a good match for a beauty like you."

Fu Bao was speechless after hearing his compliment. This was a bit too much. But he didn't bother to think about it: "Excuse me, my surname is Li." He decided not to mention his name to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Having bought two weapons in a row with such a high bid had already attracted the attention of everyone in the teahouse. Fu Bao sat there calmly, and the hot gazes of the people around her seemed to be non-existent to her.

There were quite a few young men who came to chat with her. They were all sons of merchants. If they could marry a woman from a powerful family, there would be many benefits. Moreover, Fubao was young, but she was already very graceful and her face was unforgettable. In their eyes, she was a good candidate for marriage.

But Fubao took Yi An's hand and put Zidian in his hand. He talked and laughed with him, which made those people stop in their tracks.

In the end, as expected, Fubao topped the list with a bid of 15,000 taels.
