Ye Ying continued, "Four hundred taels!"

"Room B3 bids four hundred taels!"

Ting Feng refused to be outdone, "Six hundred taels!"

"Room A4 bids six hundred taels!"

Xiao Chengchang frowned in the private room and looked down at the floor below with an unhappy expression. Su Yue saw that their private room was right in the blind spot of theirs. Xiao Chengchang took a look and didn't see the people in the room clearly, so he turned around and sat back down.

He glanced gloomily at Ye Ying beside him and said, "Continue."

Ye Ying, "Eight hundred taels!"

The servant shouted, "Room B3 is priced at eight hundred taels!"

The guests were all stunned. Could this tattered flower be so valuable? They all looked up at the rooms on the second and third floors, wondering who was inside.

I saw that the windows of both rooms were closed and I couldn't see what was going on inside.

Lu Zhan glanced at Tingfeng, who immediately rang the bell and shouted, "Two thousand taels!"

"Room A4 bids two thousand taels!"

When the price was announced, the guests were even more dumbfounded.

There were a few knowledgeable people whispering,

"This flower was only worth two hundred taels at most, and now its value has increased tenfold. I haven't heard that this flower has any other uses!"

"Oh, maybe he's just stupid and rich!"

"Three thousand taels!"

"Room B3 is priced at three thousand taels!"

Without waiting for Lu Zhan's instructions, Ting Feng said directly,

"Ten thousand taels!"

"Room A4 is offered at 10,000 taels!"

Xiao Chengchang frowned. Ye Ying was about to raise the price, but Xiao Chengchang raised his hand to stop him. "It's just a flower. Don't forget why we came here today."

Although his tone was calm, the sinister look between his brows was very strong.

In the private room, Su Yuejian and Lu Zhan both looked at Tingfeng.

How can that flower be worth ten thousand taels!

Because of the veil covering his head, he couldn't see Su Yuejian's expression, but Tingfeng could clearly see Lu Zhan's look as if he was looking at a fool.

He stood there in a daze, and he admitted that he seemed a little excited just now.

But he was right! The princess wanted that flower!

Ten thousand taels can make the princess happy, and the Duke and the general will be so happy!

Thinking of this, Tingfeng gave Lu Zhan a look that said "Don't worry, young master."

Lu Zhan received his gaze.

He rolled his eyes in his heart, he really wanted to pry open Tingfeng's brain and take a look.

He quickly changed his mind and thought, it’s just ten thousand taels. What matters most is that Yue’er likes it.

Sure enough, Xiao Chengchang stopped bidding.

The servant shouted, "Sold for ten thousand taels! Congratulations to the guest in Room A4 for winning the Mengyi Flower!"

Chen Mai looked at the private room on the second floor and was a little confused for a moment.

Why would the princess spend so much money on such a flower?

If the prince heard that they were making so much money from the princess, would he be furious...

Chen Mai couldn't help feeling a little guilty and scared.

Although it was not worth spending ten thousand taels to buy this flower, Su Yue was happy when she thought that Xiao Chengchang did not buy it.

Seeing that Su Yuejian seemed a little excited, Lu Zhan gave Tingfeng an approving look.

Lu Zhan smiled and said, "There's more to come. Yue'er, take a look and see if you want anything else!"

Su Yue smiled sweetly, "Thank you, third brother!"

The next few lots were auctioned: the agate cup, the snow ganoderma, the immortal pillow...

Xiao Chengchang didn't even bid again.

"Next up for auction is another treasured burial object from a century-old tomb: the golden silkworm. Made of pure gold, the golden silkworm symbolizes rebirth, seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, and turning misfortune into good fortune. Starting price: one hundred taels!"

Su Yuejian was muttering in his heart, it was just a Mengyi flower, was it worth him making a personal trip?

"One hundred and fifty taels!"

The servant said, "Room C7 is priced at one hundred and fifty taels!"

"Five hundred taels!"

The servant said, "Room B3 is priced at five hundred taels!"

Hearing the familiar voice, Su Yuejian raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at the display stand, turned her head and said,

"Third brother, that golden silkworm is so cute, and it can even turn misfortune into good fortune!"

Lu Zhan immediately understood and said, "Six hundred taels!"

The servant said, "Room A, number four, bids six hundred taels!"

"Six hundred and fifty taels!"

The servant said, "Room No. 5 Ding is offering six hundred and fifty taels!"

"Ten thousand taels!"

The servant said, "Room B3 is priced at 10,000 taels!"

For a moment, no one bid anymore.

All the guests were immediately shocked. Although this golden silkworm was indeed exquisitely crafted, it was definitely not worth ten thousand taels.

"There are so many rich and stupid people today!"

"Really? Just now, someone on the second floor spent 10,000 taels to buy a flower, and now another 10,000 taels to buy a golden silkworm ornament. This 10,000 taels is enough to make hundreds of golden silkworm ornaments!"

Xiao Chengchang picked up the teacup and took a sip. He came here today specifically for the golden silkworm.

Du Laoguai heard that a batch of burial objects were recently unearthed from a century-old tomb in Nanwan, and the legendary Gu King might be among them.

After sending disciples from the Wan Du Sect to inquire around, they found out that the most likely person to be the Gu King was this golden silkworm.

The old monster Du has been in seclusion recently to refine poisons, so Xiao Chengchang came in person today.

"Room A4 bids 12,000 taels!"

Hearing the servant's price, Xiao Chengchang's brows frowned instantly, his eyes filled with anger. It was Room A4 again!

Room 4, who had never bid on anything else, had tried to snatch his lot away twice, and his expression became even gloomier.

Sensing Xiao Chengchang's displeasure, Ye Ying said directly, "Thirty thousand taels!"

The servant shouted, "Room B3 is priced at 30,000 taels!"

Then I heard, "Room A, number 4, offers fifty thousand taels!"

"Room B3 is priced at 80,000 taels!"

"Room A4 is priced at one hundred thousand taels!"

The guests were completely dumbfounded watching the fight between A4 and B3. They didn't expect that the two rich and foolish people they were talking about just now were now fighting madly for this ordinary golden silkworm.

Seeing that Xiao Chengchang kept raising the price, Su Yuejian became more certain that Xiao Chengchang wanted this golden silkworm more than Meng Yihua.

Ye Ying glanced at Xiao Chengchang who was standing beside him and said, "Your Highness, one hundred thousand taels is not a small amount. I think that golden silkworm is just a piece of gold. Could it be that Old Monster Du made a mistake?"

Xiao Chengchang was now annoyed and angry at the price hike for Room A4.

"Keep adding! I don't believe it. Even if it's just a piece of gold, I'll take it back and see! One hundred and one hundred thousand taels!"

Chen Mai didn't expect that the princess had already bid up to 100,000 taels.

He had already missed the opportunity with Meng Yihua just now, so he couldn't just stand there and watch.

The waiter in Room B3 was about to ring the bell again.

Chen Mai quickly picked up the hammer on the stage, struck the final blow, and shouted,

"One hundred thousand taels sold! Congratulations to Room A-4 for winning the golden silkworm!"

After he finished shouting, he felt relieved. Fortunately, his hands were fast enough. If he continued shouting like this, the princess would have lost a lot of blood.

The prince finally found a girl he liked, so he has to be smart!

Chen Mai finally understood.

Princess Minghua must be having a conflict with the guest in Room B3, and she is trying to steal the guest's things.

Chen Mai couldn't help but be cautious.

After hearing that the golden silkworm was sold for 100,000 taels, everyone looked at the golden silkworm differently.

They all stretched their necks to take a closer look, fearing that they had missed some truly rare treasure.

But when they looked at it from left to right, they realized that it was indeed just a delicate little gold nugget!

I can only secretly sigh and envy the person in Room 4 for his wealth. He really has money and can spend it however he wants!
