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

"One hundred billion!"

These words sent a chill down the spines of many guests in the audience.

Although those who could attend this auction were all top-tier dignitaries from all walks of life in the Great Xia Dynasty, very few could actually pull out a hundred billion at once.

It can be said that they have no chance of owning this Celestial-grade Qi Gathering Pill.

Inside the No. 4 private room of the Heavenly Class

Jiang Yao's expression also darkened slightly.

Her plan was to acquire it for 100 billion, but she didn't expect that the two princes would also take a liking to this elixir.

This is a bit troublesome.

Jiang Yao took a deep breath, then slowly spoke:

"150 billion!"

The price increased by 50 billion the moment he opened his mouth!

On one hand, she was declaring to everyone her confidence in obtaining the pill, and on the other hand, she was implying to the two princes to give her face and not to continue trying to snatch it.

At this moment, in the adjacent VIP room number 3.

Zhou Yunze and Zhou Yuntian both frowned when they heard Jiang Yao's bid.

They knew that if they continued to raise the price, they would be making an enemy of Jiang Yao.

Although they were princes, they were not afraid of the Jiang family.

But offending the Jiang family for Qin Yu's sake doesn't seem like a worthwhile trade-off.

After all, although Qin Yu has amazing potential and is hailed as a genius that is rare in the Great Xia Dynasty, he has not yet fully matured and is still far inferior to the Jiang family in terms of influence.

Thinking of this, the two of them fell silent without prior agreement.

While winning over Qin Yu is important, they must not offend the Jiang family in the process.

Seeing that the two princes did not continue bidding, Qin Yu did not pay any attention.

Anyway, he has already made a fortune this time.

Roughly estimated, he made at least 200 billion this time.

These can be exchanged for four-dimensional attribute potions, which will definitely raise the panel attribute values ​​to the Martial Emperor realm.

With this in mind, Qin Yu decided to give Zhou Yunze and Zhou Yuntian, these two suckers—no, I mean, good brothers, a little something.

Qin Yu took their hands and said with a smile:

"My two good brothers, I, Qin, will remember your kindness today. Don't worry, just call me if you need anything in the future. I don't want to help with small things, and I certainly can't help with big things either!"

Zhou Yunze & Zhou Yuntian: "..."

How dare you speak like a human being?

Zhou Yunze's lips twitched with anger, and he pulled away from Qin Yu's hand that was holding him.

Just then, he suddenly saw a small note in his palm, on which it read:

[WeChat ID: ***********. I believe you are the one I am destined to help with all my might. Add me on WeChat and let's chat privately.]

Upon seeing this, Zhou Yunze's pupils suddenly contracted, and he couldn't help but look up at Qin Yu, only to see the latter wink at him and a slight smile appear on his lips.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Yunze immediately understood, winked at the other person, and smiled knowingly.

It seems that in the end, I won the favor of the Qin brothers.

Wuhu, this was definitely a good deal!

Zhou Yunze's initial frustration at losing tens of billions of yuan vanished instantly.

But what Zhou Yunze didn't know was that his good older brother had also received a note secretly handed to him by Qin Yu.

Looking at the contents of the note, Zhou Yuntian barely suppressed his laughter and exchanged a knowing glance with Qin Yu, both revealing knowing smiles.

Wuhu, it seems I have finally defeated my second brother and won the favor of the Qin brothers. Awesome!

At that moment, all three people in the No. 3 VIP box felt like they had hit the jackpot, and the room was instantly filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the two princes had stopped bidding.

Acquiring this pill for 150 billion was far beyond her previous budget, but still within a barely acceptable range.

After all, with this pill, she could reach the Martial Emperor realm ahead of schedule.

Acquiring it for 1500 billion is not a huge profit, but it's definitely not a loss either.

In other words, all four of them felt they had made a profit at this auction; no one was a loser.

In short, they've won so badly they're completely exhausted!

After the auction ended, Zhou Yunze and Zhou Yuntian bid farewell to Qin Yu and left early to avoid suspicion.

Qin Yu went to the backstage of the auction house, where the old man in charge of the auction handed him a spatial ring.

“Mr. Qin, this spatial ring contains all the auction items you won at this auction.”

As he spoke, the old man handed Qin Yu another bank card:

"This is the amount you received from the auction of the Celestial-grade Heavenly Origin Gathering Qi Pill. After deducting 20% ​​tax and 5% handling fee, you have received a total of 1125 billion yuan."

"What!?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yu's eyes suddenly widened:

"They deducted 20% in taxes from employees, what the hell is this?! Why don't they just rob people?!"

The old man gave a bitter smile and said:

"Mr. Qin, please don't get agitated. This tax rate was set by the imperial court, and there's nothing we can do about it."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yu immediately began to curse:

"Damn it, no wonder those royal bastards are all so rich, they got it all by robbing the people!"

Old man:? ? ?

Saying such treasonous things to my face, do you want me to be executed along with my entire family?

The old man was terrified and quickly said:

"Mr. Qin, watch your words! You could lose your head if you say something like that!"

Qin Yu grinned and waved his finger:

"No, no, sir, you're mistaken. I won't lose my head if I say this, but it's not necessarily true if you say it."

老者：(?6?4?0?1?0?3?0?3?6?7?2?8?6?2?6?7?2?8)

If it weren't for the young man's noble status, the old man would have really wanted to give him a big slap on the shoulder.

That kid's mouth is just too rude!

Qin Yu, however, remained calm and cheerfully took out the Heart-Nourishing Dragon Jade and the famous sword Hanxiao from his spatial ring, then handed the spatial ring back to the old man.

The old man was taken aback: "Mr. Qin, what do you mean by this?"

Qin Yu grinned and said, "I plan to resell these auction items to your auction house. Name your price and take them."

Old man: (｀?1?1д?1?1′)

The old man's lips twitched; he was completely dumbfounded.

Good heavens, they buy things from our auction house and then resell them to us!

Are you just playing around here?

The old man looked troubled and said, "This, this, we've never seen anyone do it like this before."

"Now you've seen it all. Just one question: are you going to accept it or not?" Qin Yu said nonchalantly.

Anyway, these things are useless to him, so he might as well take them out and sell them for money.

"We can definitely buy it," the old man nodded, "but we certainly can't buy it at the auction price."

After some thought, the old man finally gave a price: "500 billion at most."

Qin Yu shook his head and held up one finger: "One trillion."

Old man:? ? ?

One trillion!?

You're just trying to rob me, fine!

"Mr. Qin, don't joke around, one trillion is simply impossible!"

Qin Yu thought for a moment, then spoke:

"Alright then, I'll take a loss and ask for less. How about 100 billion? I've already given you a 90% discount. Isn't that sincere enough?"

Old man: "..."

Wow, you've really mastered the broken windows theory.
