Chapter 109 109: The auction begins
Regardless of whether Emperor Qi Hui wants it or not, the auction has begun. The first item to be auctioned was the priceless crystal orchid.
Soon, this orchid, which was about to be auctioned, named "Crystal Orchid", was carefully lifted onto the table by two young girls. Xu Yixuan just raised her eyes and glanced at the two young girls indifferently, and then recognized that one of them had just met once, and she was the one walking at the end.
Naturally, he also saw the man's face clearly.
Qi, Sister Qi?
Xu Yixuan turned her head to look at her man, and saw that there was no trace of surprise on his face, and he didn't ask any questions while his eyes were moving. That day, Sister Qi, who lived in the third room next door, was poisoned by snake venom. Xu Yixuan secretly had someone feed Sister Qi an antidote pill. But who would have thought that when Mr. Tao saw his only daughter dying, he felt it was a burden, so he took it upon himself to dig a hole and bury her alive.
By the time Xu Yixuan noticed it, it was already too late. Unexpectedly, not only did this man not die, he was also saved.
As the auctioneer in charge of the auction, Fubao began to introduce the crystal orchid slowly. Obviously, this is not the same thing as the perennial herbaceous saprophytic plant of the genus Crystal Orchid of the Wintergreen family, known as the "Flower of the Underworld" in Xu Yixuan's memory.
I saw this crystal orchid in front of me, with clusters of slender and emerald leaves, like a long sword with an edge, breaking out of the ground. The slender flower paths were hidden among the leaves. As Fu Bao took the wooden watering can aside, he evenly sprinkled water as thin as an ox's hair onto the crystal orchid. The buds waiting to bloom were covered with flowers on the flower path heads. A robe woven with a layer of crystal water mist reluctantly revealed her charming face under the refraction of the sun.
What a finely carved crystal flower, crystal clear, I have to admire the uncanny workmanship of the Creator of Nature.
As for the price, the base price is one thousand taels.
Is it expensive? One copper plate can buy a big meat bun, which is equivalent to the modern consumption level of one yuan, and one thousand taels is equivalent to one million. Ordinary people, with a family of five or six people, may not be able to save that much money in most of their lives. But for a wealthy family, they are just antiques, calligraphy and paintings, or jewelry.
Of course, this thousand taels is only the initial starting price.
As a certain uncle eagerly accepted the price, and doubled it, soon you added one hundred taels, and I added two hundred taels, raising the price to 4,700 taels.
Obviously, Fubao, who was an auctioneer, was not satisfied with the price, so he blatantly added fuel to the fire: In addition to being highly ornamental, the rare crystal orchid in the world also had another effect.
According to legend, this crystal orchid only grows in fairyland such as Penglai Fairy Island. Therefore, if you collect the nectar of this crystal orchid, brew it with warm water and drink it, it will have the effect of prolonging your life.
Rumors are just rumors. If not for a chance encounter in the misty rain, who would have discovered the quietly blooming flowers? Not to mention preparing containers in advance to collect the meager nectar.
"Prolong life?" Miss Zhao San, who was lucky enough to follow the two princes into the pavilion, was lying on the window sill. When she heard Fubao's introduction, she couldn't help but muttered, "If it's true, you have to hurry up." Shoot it back. Second cousin, what do you think?"
"Well, I should think of a way to take pictures." Before the second prince could speak, the fifth prince, whose mother was a compatriot beside him, rushed to reply.
The second prince frowned slightly.
If it could really prolong life, we should try our best to get it, and then immediately offer it with both hands and place it on Emperor Qi Hui's desk.
As a direct descendant of the middle palace and an ambitious prince, the second prince actually did not hope that the increasingly dim-witted Emperor Qi Hui would live a long life. But is this something that can be said openly? Not only can't you tell, you also have to be alert at all times, and you can't show the slightest clue.
In fact, the second prince had other thoughts in his mind. Although most of the first lots at Su Shang Ya Ju's auction were rare treasures in the world, no matter how precious they were, they were not as valuable as the last lot at the bottom of the box. This one is the crystal orchid, and the subsequent items...
At this moment, I am afraid that not only the second prince and the fifth prince are more interested in the master behind Su Shang Ya, but all the people present are thinking in their hearts about how to use Su Shang Ya at the minimum cost. Yaju ate it all.
