"boom!"

Nangong Qing slammed his fist into the transparent canopy, venting his inner dissatisfaction.

He turned his head and looked at Chen Yun in confusion, not understanding why he had chosen to give up at this moment.

They had clearly made so many preparations and plans; they could have easily defeated Zhao Qitong, that arrogant playboy, if they had just persevered a little longer.

Now, they were just one step away, but failed at the last moment!

As if he had guessed what Nangong Qing was thinking, Chen Yun smiled and pulled out a black object the size of a soybean from under the seat.

Upon seeing the object, Nangong Qing was startled, and his pupils contracted sharply.

He had seen this thing once before; it was a bugging device!

Chen Yun had previously taken out an identical item at Yunxiang Pavilion!

The auction house is Wang Lei's territory.

Therefore, Wang Lei must have installed the bugging device beforehand!

But what does this have to do with Chen Yun giving up the auction of the jade ginseng?

Even if what they say is overheard, the fact that they will acquire the jade ginseng will not change as long as the auction continues.

Could it be? !

Suddenly, an absurd thought flashed through Nangong Qing's mind, and he stared intently at the jade ginseng on the display stand downstairs.

"It seems you have guessed it."

With a gentle push, Chen Yun shattered the bug in his hand into two pieces. He then removed the silver needle that had been inserted into Nangong Qing's acupoint.

"This jade ginseng... is it fake?"

Nangong Qing took a deep breath and voiced his guess!

The treasure that cost a whopping 300 million was actually a fake!

"Mr. Ke, how dare Wang Lei do this? To switch the goods out of the good stuff in front of so many people, to pass off a fake jade ginseng as a fake, does he not want to keep his auction house open?" Nangong Qing frowned.

"As long as the benefits outweigh the losses, there's nothing they wouldn't dare to do. Have you forgotten who Wang Lei is? He's a businessman," Chen Yun said with a faint smile.

"But this is still unreasonable!"

“Wang Lei is from Yunhang. He offended the Zhao family with a fake jade ginseng. How can he stand in Yunhang from now on? Is he going to come and seek refuge with us?”

Nangong Qing racked his brains but still couldn't figure out why Wang Lei did this.

Would this cunning old fox really put himself in such danger? Once the Zhao family finds out that the jade ginseng is fake, they will definitely do everything in their power to make Wang Lei disappear!

“Yes, since you know that no one in Yunhang can protect Wang Lei, how could Wang Lei not have thought of this? This matter must have been interfered with by people from other provinces,” Chen Yun said matter-of-factly.

"So that's it!"

Nangong Qing suddenly realized the truth, and while she was enlightened, she also felt extremely ashamed.

If Chen Yun hadn't stopped him, they would have wasted a full 300 million yuan to buy a fake!

If you lose the money, it will only cause more problems!

"In the future, you must think twice before you act, and make decisions only after you have thought things through," Chen Yun advised.

"I will certainly keep your teachings in mind!"

Nangong Qing paused, then asked curiously, "Sir, how did you know this jade ginseng was fake?"

“I’ve seen what the Jade Ginseng looks like in photos, and the fake Jade Ginseng that Wang Lei is promoting looks exactly the same as the real one.”

"The appearance of a spiritual herb is secondary; to truly determine its authenticity, one must sense the spiritual energy within it. As for this Jade Ginseng before me, I spent a long time but still couldn't sense any spiritual energy, which is why I was able to conclude in the end that it was fake."

After listening to Chen Yun's explanation, Nangong Qing immediately understood.

No wonder Chen Yun was still bidding at the beginning, and even wanted to borrow the two hundred million from Feng Chengshan, but then suddenly changed his mind.

Wait, I think I forgot something important!

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, Nangong Qing looked up sharply at the exhibition stand.

At this point, the jade ginseng on the display stand had already been moved away.

However, the distance of over a hundred meters between the exhibition booth and the rooftop private room remained unchanged, with a huge transparent canopy separating them!

Mr. Chen was able to overcome all obstacles and distances and sense the spirituality of the Jade Ginseng!

This method is simply amazing!

Nangong Qing looked at Chen Yun with increasing admiration.

"I know what you're thinking. I'm not that amazing." Chen Yun smiled. "I'm just more sensitive to the existence of spirituality than ordinary people."

“Yes, just a tiny bit,” Nangong Qing replied with a smile.

"Alright. Let's continue watching the auction. Who knows, we might get some unexpected gains."

Chen Yun smiled and offered no further explanation.

If this continues, Nangong Qing might start to feel inferior!

"Yes, that idiot Zhao Qitong spent 300 million to buy only a fake plant. When he finds out, he'll probably be so angry he'll vomit blood! It's truly gratifying!"

"The number one playboy in Yunhang? I think he's more like the number one sucker in Yunhang, hahaha—"

Nangong Qing burst into laughter, all the frustration that had been building up in his heart vanished!

After so many twists and turns, in the end, Chen Yun and his group suffered no losses, Wang Lei made a fortune, and only Zhao Qitong, the most arrogant person in the room, became the biggest fool and paid the price for everyone!

“I have a feeling this matter is not over yet. You need to keep a close eye on Wang Lei—we might get some unexpected gains from him!”

Chen Yun turned his gaze back to the auction house.

"Don't worry, sir! I will definitely not let you down this time!"

Nangong Qing nodded solemnly, then turned his gaze to the auction hall.

After the jade ginseng was auctioned off, several other valuable antiques appeared on the exhibition stand one after another.

Among them was an antique blue-and-white porcelain bowl from the Ming Dynasty, which was auctioned for a high price of 100 million yuan.

This was an astronomical price rarely seen at auctions, but with the jade ginseng fetching 300 million yuan before it, this price naturally wouldn't cause anyone to gasp in astonishment.

Among them was the teapot that Wang Lei had mentioned, which was eventually acquired by Nangong Qing for ten million.

About forty minutes later, most of the auction items had been sold.

The auction is nearing its end.

The last item was brought up by the staff.

"This is our last item for today, a mysterious and unpredictable bronze fragment."

Wang Lei went on stage again, lifted the red cloth, and revealed the rusty and broken bronze pieces inside.

"What kind of garbage do you dare to say you're going to auction it off?"

"Who would be crazy enough to buy this piece of junk?"

"If the auction house has nothing to bid on, it should just end it already. Who are you trying to fool by bringing up some junk?"

The guests present booed loudly.

I thought that even if the last thing that came out couldn't compare to the Jade Ginseng, it should still be a pretty good treasure, right?

And what they delivered was this piece of junk!

Many people even stood up and prepared to leave the auction.
