Stop pretending, I'm a security guard, a five-star general!

Crowds continued to pour into the auction hall.

Soon, the huge venue was packed, and all the lights went out instantly. An elderly man slowly walked to the front of the stage.

"Welcome to Yum! Brands Auction House. We guarantee you won't be disappointed with this auction."

"Alright, enough chit-chat, let's begin the auction of the first item."

As soon as he finished speaking, a pretty young woman in a cheongsam walked up carrying a tray. On the tray was a jade pendant that emitted a faint green glow. At first glance, it was clear that it was no ordinary item.

"【Nourishing Heart Jade】, when worn, it has the effect of nourishing the mind and body. Starting bid is 1 million, with each bid no less than 5000 million. Bidding starts now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the guests below the stage raised their placards.

"1 million!"

"2 million!"

"3 million!"

"..."

The bidding continued unabated, quickly reaching over 5 million, leaving Qin Yu in the private room speechless with amazement.

Goodness, this is only the first item up for auction, and it's already going to fetch over 5 million.

No wonder Little Fatty's family is the richest. Even if they only take 5%, they can easily make tens of millions.

"Nourishing Heart Dragon Jade, why are so many people fighting over this thing? Is it really that useful?"

Qin Yu looked at the two princes beside him and asked.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yunze smiled slightly and said:

"Although the effects of this item may not be immediately apparent, wearing it regularly will greatly benefit one's mind and body."

"I see, it sounds like a great treasure." Qin Yu nodded with an expression of admiration.

"It's a pity it's too expensive. I wish some kind person could buy the whole jade pendant and give it to me."

Zhou Yunze & Zhou Yuntian: "..."

Good grief, what about the two of us at this size?

Zhou Yuntian was the first to react, and said with a smile:

"Since Brother Qin Yu wants it, I'll take a picture of it for you and give it to you."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yu immediately showed an embarrassed expression:

"Oh? How could I possibly accept this?"

As he spoke, Qin Yu silently took out a notebook, picked up a pen, and wrote in the notebook:

"Today, the Crown Prince bought me a jade pendant. I am very grateful and will repay him properly in the future."

周云天：(?2?9?0?4?7?0?0?4?2?9)

Zhou Yunze: (｀?1?1д?1?1′)

Zhou Yunze was stunned.

Nima! ?

This kid switched sides to his boss's camp just because of a jade pendant?

How can this work!

Thinking of this, Zhou Yunze quickly said:

"Brother Qin Yu, you don't need your elder brother to give me this jade pendant; I'll give it to you!"

As he spoke, he gave a look to the guard beside him, who nodded, stepped out of the private room, held up the sign, and shouted:

"One billion!"

Upon hearing this, the previously rising and falling bids instantly fell silent.

After all, this jade pendant, though beautiful, is definitely not worth a billion.

Seeing Zhou Yunze act decisively, Qin Yu's eyes lit up instantly, and he looked at Zhou Yunze with gratitude:

"Thank you, Brother Yunze!"

"Little things, little things."

Zhou Yunze smiled and waved his hand, but inwardly he was cursing.

Damn, you're pretty honest, aren't you?

You call me Xiaoze when there's nothing wrong, but Big Brother when there's trouble, right?

As he spoke, Qin Yu crossed out the words "First Prince" that he had written in his notebook and changed them to "Second Prince".

Upon seeing this, Zhou Yuntian's pupils immediately contracted.

If my second brother succeeds, this is outrageous!

So he quickly gave the guard beside him a look, and the latter understood and also walked out of the private room.

"One billion, just once!"

"One billion, twice!"

"One billion, three times!"

"Okay, done..."

Just as the old man was about to bring down his hammer on the platform, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Wait! I'll offer 11 billion!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and were stunned to find that it was the same VIP box No. 3 that had made the bid earlier.

No, man.

Nobody's going to compete with you, so why would you voluntarily raise the price?

The old man had never seen anything like this before, and asked with some uncertainty:

"Sir, are you really sure you want to add another hundred million?"

"Confirmed." The guard nodded expressionlessly.

Upon hearing this, the guests in the audience couldn't help but gasp.

"hiss!!"

Good grief, they wouldn't buy it for 1 billion, but they insisted on adding another 100 million.

This guy is just burning money!

"Okay, 11 billion each time!"

"11 billion twice!"

"11 billion..."

"Wait! I'll offer 12 billion!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and were stunned to find that it was still the No. 3 VIP room.

"what?"

"No, buddy!?"

Everyone was stunned.

They've seen rich people before, but they've never seen anyone just hand out money.

What they didn't know was that the two bids were not from the same person.

Upon hearing Zhou Yunze bid 12 billion, Zhou Yuntian said with a forced smile:

"Second brother, this is just a small token of my appreciation for Brother Qin Yu, so don't try to take it from me."

Zhou Yunze smiled slightly and said:

"Brother, what are you saying? We're brothers, we're practically of the same blood. If I give you a gift, it's the same as you giving you a gift."

"Haha, Second Brother, you're joking. Even between brothers, accounts should be settled clearly. Let me deliver the gift this time."

As he spoke, Zhou Yuntian winked three times at the guard beside him, who immediately understood and called out:

"15 million!"

Not to be outdone, the second prince also winked at the guard beside him, and he winked even more often, a total of five times!

The second prince's guards nodded in understanding and shouted:

"20 million!"

At this moment, the whole place was silent.

They finally understood.

This is the No. 3 VIP box, where two immortals are engaged in a magical duel!

Soon, the two bidders kept raising the price, which climbed to 30 billion, causing the guests in the audience to gasp repeatedly.

"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss hiss hiss!!!"

If you didn't know better, you'd think you'd stumbled into a snake pit.

Seeing that the eldest prince and the second prince were at odds, Qin Yu quickly pulled the two who were getting increasingly heated.

He was still planning to slowly harvest the韭菜 (a metaphor for exploiting people), but if he harvests too much in the first wave, he won't be able to harvest any more later.

"Well, I think that if you two keep raising the price, you're just doing all the work for someone else. How about this, you two each pay half the money, and I'll appreciate your good intentions."

Zhou Yunze and Zhou Yuntian were taken aback when they heard this, but then they realized that what Qin Yu said was indeed correct.

Otherwise, if they continue to argue like this, the price increases will go on and on without end.

Although they are not short of money, if their father knew that they spent tens of billions to buy a jade pendant that was only worth a few hundred million, they would definitely be criticized.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yunze and Zhou Yuntian both nodded, agreeing with Qin Yu's suggestion.

In the end, Zhou Yunze and Zhou Yuntian each invested 1.5 billion to acquire the jade pendant, thus bringing this little episode to an end.

Soon, the second item was brought up.

It is an epic-level weapon, the [Famous Blade - Cold Sky]. When an ice-attribute talent wields this longsword, it can greatly enhance the power of their ice-attribute talent.

"This precious sword is perfect for Xiaoxue!"

Upon seeing this, Qin Yu's eyes lit up.

Thinking of this, Qin Yu couldn't help but exclaim with admiration:

"This knife looks really nice. I wish I could have it."

As he spoke, Qin Yu quickly looked at Zhou Yunze and Zhou Yuntian beside him and waved his hand, saying:

"Don't get me wrong, I really didn't mean for you to bid on this knife and give it to me."

"I, Qin, am absolutely not the kind of shameless and greedy person!"

Zhou Yunze & Zhou Yuntian: "..."

Well, since we've come this far...

What else can they say?

Buy it!
