At the beginning, I became a county magistrate with greed of 500 million. The empress asked me to be

"No need." Xia Yun waved his hand.

He knew that Qin Shun saw that he had feelings for the emerald sapphire.

The reason why Qin Shun had the emerald sapphire withdrawn from the auction was naturally to leave it to him.

"grown ups?"

Qin Shun looked at Xia Yun hesitantly, not understanding why.

"Although this is our own auction house, we should not break the rules."

Xia Yun began to explain.

Qin Shun suddenly realized and nodded.

At this moment, Hongyu's voice on the auction table reached the ears of Xia Yun and his group.

"This is the last lot of this auction, the South Sea Jade and Sapphire, the starting price is 100,000 taels of silver!"

At the same time, all the guests in the auction hall turned their attention to the emerald sapphire.

The extreme luster emitted by the gem made everyone want to own it.

"I'll pay 150,000!"

Almost at the moment Hongyu finished speaking, she immediately called out a high price of 150,000.

However, this is just the beginning.

"One hundred and sixty thousand!"

"One hundred and seventy thousand!"

"One hundred and ninety thousand!"

"Two hundred thousand!"

In just a few moments, the auction price of the emerald sapphire was directly pushed up to two hundred thousand!

By this time, the atmosphere in the auction hall reached its climax.

"Master Xiao."

A gentle call suddenly came from the mouth of the barbarian woman in the second row of the auction hall.

The man surnamed Xiao immediately met the gaze of the barbarian woman.

Apparently, the barbarian woman was also quite interested in the emerald sapphire.

The man surnamed Xiao counted the banknotes he brought with him on this trip, and there were still about 300,000 left.

In order to win the heart of the beauty, the man surnamed Xiao didn't care about so many things.

"Two hundred and twenty thousand!"

The man surnamed Xiao gritted his teeth and immediately raised the auction price by another 20,000 yuan on the basis of 200,000 yuan.

"Two hundred and thirty thousand!"

"Two hundred and thirty-five thousand taels!"

"Two hundred and forty thousand!"

"Two hundred and fifty thousand!"

"..."

The scene soon entered into a new round of fierce bidding.

At this point, no one was willing to let the emerald sapphire be taken away by someone else.

However, in the process, many people gave up the pursuit.

After all, no matter how beautiful a gem is, it is still just a stone.

Except for those wealthy princes and nobles, other wealthy families would not be foolish enough to spend hundreds of thousands of taels of silver just to auction a stone.

"Three hundred thousand!"

After dozens of breaths, a powerful voice came out from the mouth of the man surnamed Xiao, and the auction price was raised to 300,000.

At this point, the auction hall, which had been filled with a very intense atmosphere, quickly quieted down.

Almost everyone turned their eyes towards the man named Xiao.

Many people immediately recognized the identity of the man named Xiao.

"It turned out to be him."

"It's interesting. This kid spends money so lavishly. I'll have to see how he explains it when he gets home."

"..."

There were whispers among the crowd.

At this time, the man surnamed Xiao did not hear clearly what others were saying, but he really enjoyed the envious looks from them.

This also includes barbarian women.

It is not known whether it was intentional or unintentional, but the barbarian woman opened her mouth wide at this moment, and looked at the man named Xiao with eyes full of admiration.

Immediately afterwards, Hongyu's voice rang out again.

"Three hundred thousand taels at a time!"

"Three hundred thousand taels twice!"

At the same time, the auction hammer in Hongyu's hand was raised.

However, just when everyone at the scene thought that the emerald sapphire would fall into the hands of the man named Xiao.

In an instant, a steady and abrupt voice suddenly sounded.

"Three hundred and fifty thousand."

At the front row of the auction hall, Xia Yun uttered a plain number.

As soon as the words came out, the whole room was in an uproar.

Everyone followed the source of the sound and looked towards Xia Yun, with a look of shock on their faces.

Curious about Xia Yun's origin and identity.

The man named Xiao, who was about to cheer and celebrate, looked at the sudden change and a grim look suddenly appeared on his face.

He saw Xia Yun.

"How can this damn guy have so much silver?!"

The man surnamed Xiao was puzzled.

He didn't understand why the guy, who looked ordinary in his clothes, could be so generous?

"Three hundred and sixty thousand!"

The man surnamed Xiao finally gritted his teeth and said a number fiercely.

In order not to lose face in front of the beauty, he took out all his family assets for this trip.

However, the man surnamed Xiao had just finished speaking.

The next moment, Xia Yun uttered a calm voice again.

"Fifty thousand taels."

This time, Xia Yun did not give others any chance and directly raised the price by 140,000 yuan on top of the 360,000 yuan.

The man surnamed Xiao was stunned on the spot.

In fact, this also includes other people present.

Who is that guy?

Spend five hundred thousand taels of silver to buy an emerald sapphire?

Is he crazy? !

While everyone showed curiosity on their faces, there was also a look of shock in their eyes.

The barbarian woman looked at Xia Yun curiously, and in her clear and bright eyes, there flashed a hint of shrewdness that was not easily noticed by others.

But it was at this time.

From the corner of Xia Yun's eye, he just caught a shrewd look in the depths of the barbarian woman's pupils!

really.

This woman is not simple!

Xia Yun's mouth corner immediately curved up.

From the first moment he saw this woman, he knew that her innocent appearance was all fake!

The man surnamed Xiao was completely unaware of this.

In his opinion, it was Xia Yun's generosity that attracted the admiration of the barbarian women and stole his limelight.

For a moment, the man surnamed Xiao was filled with anger!

"Five hundred thousand taels at a time!"

"Five hundred thousand taels twice!"

"Five hundred thousand two or three times!"

Words came out of Hongyu's mouth one after another.

"Congratulations to this gentleman for successfully bidding for this emerald sapphire!"

The auction hammer fell on the table, and the emerald sapphire belonged to Xia Yun.

At this time, Hongyu's eyes were looking at Xia Yun.

Although she didn't know who Xia Yun was.

But he saw that his boss Qin Shun seemed very respectful to this strange guest.

This made her involuntarily give rise to many speculations.

"Welcome to the Fenglai Inn auction tonight. We will personally hand over all the auction items to you."

At this time, the manager of the auction house came out from the backstage.

Following behind him was a maid holding a tray.

On the trays are the packaged items for this auction.

However, during the delivery of the auction items.

Suddenly, a discordant scene appeared at the scene.

"Boy, stop!"

A man named Xiao walked out of the crowd with an arrogant look on his face, and locked his eyes on Xia Yun.

At this time, Xia Yun was about to step forward and take away the emerald sapphire.

Xia Yun immediately stopped and turned to look at the man named Xiao, a look of displeasure gradually revealing between his brows.
