"The third round of bidding is about to begin. Please take your seats as soon as possible."

Many people came to this auction, not only to bid on their collections, but also to expand their network. Among the people sitting in the lobby, there were many who were not interested in the auction and took advantage of the intermission to stroll around the hall.

Fortunately, they were able to come to the auction, and they were not people without sense of propriety, so no one dared to go to the second floor.

As soon as the host spoke, the people in the audience seemed to be unsatisfied, but after a while, they returned to their seats and quieted down.

The hostess smiled and adjusted the ornament on her head.

"The third round of auctions will still feature three collections. These three collections are extremely precious and special, but this round of auctions has another important meaning."

"This round of auction is related to the marriage between Miss Yin Xinyue, the heir of Xinyue Hotel, and Mr. Peng Sanbian from the northwest."

“If Mr. Peng can win one of the three lots, it will be regarded as the first betrothal gift for the marriage between Yin of Xinyue Hotel and Mr. Peng.”

“Let us wish Mr. Peng success in bidding!”

After the host finished speaking, thunderous applause broke out in the auction hall.

After hearing this, Yin Xinyue hid at the stairs and rolled her eyes quietly. It sounded like she was eager to become someone's wife. Her father really knew how to find things for her to do.

Meanwhile, in the private room, Jinnian was so frightened that the grapes that were close to her mouth dropped, and Zhang Qishan frowned, his face turning a little dark.

Only Qi Tiezui stood up suddenly.

"Buddha! Why didn't you tell me this?"

Qi Tiezui ran to Jinnian and hugged him: "Wuwuwuwu, Master Buddha is going to get married. Little Jinnian, from now on, it will only be the two of us to keep you company. Wuwuwuwu........."

Jinnian wanted to say something but stopped himself. Qi Tiezui beside him pretended to cry, but his tears could not come out and he just kept howling. Jinnian was at a loss and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Seeing that Jinnian was being strangled by him and didn't dare to say anything, Zhang Qishan kicked him directly.

"Ow!"

"Lord Buddha!"

"What are you doing!"

"You've made a profit! You buy some medicine and get a sister-in-law for free."

Zhang Qishan's face was so cold that it looked like a joke, and he was so angry that he laughed.

"Old Eight, if you say one more word of nonsense, I will go back and cut off your tongue and feed it to Old Five's dog. Do you understand?"

Qi Tiezui immediately covered his mouth and hid behind Jinnian.

But he was too big, and Jinnian's small body couldn't stop him at all, making it look weird.

"Just kidding, just kidding............."

"Maybe Miss Yin is still unwilling, right? I see that Miss Yin is not as interested in you as she is in Jinnian..."

Zhang Qishan glanced at him sideways, and Qi Tiezui didn't even dare to say anything. He closed his mouth weakly, but he couldn't help feeling regretful in his heart.

He was still thinking about getting married...he was hoping to find one who would come to him. But Master Fo looked like he was bitten by a snake, and Second Master was already an adult, but he only knew how to sing opera and coax children. He was also worried about the next generation of the Nine Gates!

It seems that in their generation, except for Master Jiu who has a female companion and Master Si who has a wife, the rest are still unmarried... Oh no, it's over.

"The person who wants to marry is Peng Sanbian. What does it have to do with me, 'Peng Sanbian'?"

Zhang Qishan glanced at Jinnian worriedly, and only felt relieved when he saw that he started showing off grapes again.

As for Jinnian, he knew that their business cards were "borrowed", so at most he would apologize to Miss Yin in his heart for snatching her fiancé's business card. He was thinking whether he should apologize to Miss Yin when the time comes, because Miss Yin was really good to him.

"The new moon is curved like an eyebrow, with no sign of reunion.

The red beans are unbearable to look at, and my eyes are filled with tears of longing.

I spend the whole day splitting peach pulps, and the person is in my heart.

The two flowers on the wall will eventually become a couple. "

"No wonder the person who came to pick us up at the Crescent Hotel was named Qu Rumei. It turns out that the marriage was already planned."

"Hey, then... shall we... marry her or not... bah! Should we take a photo or not?"

Zhang Qishan glanced at him: "What do you think?"

Jinnian also looked up at Qi Tiezui. Qi Tiezui blinked and slapped the table: "Of course! Our young master still needs the medicine to be useful!"

"That's it."

Qi Tiezui was very uncomfortable. He had some rather "despicable" thoughts in his mind, but he couldn't say them in front of Jinnian.

"Dear guests, our third round of auction items are all top-grade, extremely precious herbs."

"They are Qilinjie, Luhuoca, and Saffron."

"Since these three herbs are extremely precious, in order to ensure their efficacy and safety, they will be kept by the Crescent Hotel during the auction and will be handed over to the owner for inspection immediately after the auction."

"This round of herbs is sold in brocade boxes, and the highest bidder wins."

“As a reminder, we will adopt a blind auction format for the third round of auctions.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the people sitting in the lobby couldn't sit still anymore. Although they didn't plan to participate in the auction, a blind auction was indeed a bit too random. They couldn't help but sigh that only the powerful people in the private rooms upstairs could afford to play this game.

Qi Tiezui lifted the curtain, stood on the terrace, took a look, then came back with a frown.

"It is indeed a brocade box, and there is a special person to handle it, but this blind bidding is too deceptive. How do we know which brocade box contains the things we want???"

Zhang Qishan pointed to the table and asked Qi Tiezui to sit down first.

"Don't worry, let's try to take a photo first. We have to get the things."

"Try to find out their bottom line first."

Jinnian's little brain worked, as if he understood. He pulled a small stool from the corner and sat in front of the railing, just in a position where he could see it if he stuck his head out.

He imitated Qi Tiezui and looked for a long time, but still couldn't tell any difference between the three boxes.

"Third round, first auction item, starting price must not be less than 200,000. Now, the bidding begins!"

Below, Mr. Li, whom Jinnian saw last time, was also there. He was thinking that if the bidding continued in the same way as in the previous two rounds, the prices of these things would go through the roof.

He didn't bid in the first two rounds. The only time he raised his sign, he saw a nice jade pendant. Unfortunately, the price was too high, so he gave up.

He looked up by chance and saw a little face. A pointed head popped out from the terrace and he was stunned. Isn't this the little friend from yesterday? Why is he up there today? ? ?

"Hey, you said that Qilinjie, is it the legendary magical medicine that can make you immune to all poisons if you take it?"

"It seems so.....What about the deer grass?"

"This...someone from my grandfather's generation actually said that if you kill a deer and fill its internal organs with grass, the deer will actually survive!"

"So awesome?"

"Of course, this is a treasure that can bring people back to life!"

"Tsk, are they all so amazing?"

"I haven't really heard of saffron, but it must be extraordinary to be put together with these two herbs............"

The people who had left their seats began to chatter among themselves, and no one pressed the bell. The maids, servants, and stick slaves nearby did not try to stop them. After all, this was a great opportunity to create momentum.

People downstairs are dull, even idle, with everyone looking on with a look of watching the fun. But it's different upstairs.

Ever since the prince living next door to Jinnian and the others started pressing the bell as if to play, the ding-ding sounds came one after another. Even Zhang Qishan followed suit and pressed the bell several times. Almost as soon as one sounded, after he had recorded it, another one would follow.

Urgent bells rang continuously throughout the hall, making even the people below nervous and unable to help but have a heated discussion about which room would be able to get the precious herb.

It was the first time that Jinnian saw a bell being pressed so quickly, so loudly, and so quickly. He looked up curiously to see who was competing with them.

In the previous auctions, bidders would make decisions on whether to raise the price or follow suit after careful consideration, but here they just kept bidding as if it was free, going back and forth, and it seemed like it would never end.

Zhang Qishan was pressing the bell while Qi Tiezui was counting on his fingers beside him, wondering how much it would cost. The more he calculated, the more disappointed he became. In the end, he simply gave up and joined the ranks of those pressing the bell. They would follow whoever pressed the bell anyway. What's worse, it wasn't his money being spent, so he could just have some fun first.

Jinnian tilted his head and stuck it out. The ding-dong sound was particularly clear in his ears, automatically blocking out the echoes. He discovered that the Beile that the Eighth Master was talking about seemed to have just started ringing the bell and didn't ring the bell again. It was more like he was watching a show.

The ones they were mainly competing with were number two and number four. Number four seemed to really want it, and he pressed the bell so many times that sparks almost came out. There was no pattern, it was like he just wanted to fight for it.

As for number two, it was very strange. Jinnian would look back at Zhang Qishan and Qi Tiezui from time to time. Almost every time the two of them pressed the button, number two would press the button as if he was imitating them.

Jinnian secretly revealed only half of her face and stuck out her tongue at No. 2, imitating a cunning person, what a bad guy!

As for number one, Jinnian leaned on the railing and took a few glances, but the bell on the opposite side never rang. Moreover, Jinnian could not understand why he could see a ghost through the screen... Number two even showed his face, although it was a man dressed as a guard who saw it, but at least he saw it. As for number one, there were obviously two people, but they were silent as if there was no one there.

Jinnian was itching with curiosity. Could it be that these things had no appeal at all to the people in front of him?

Jinnian couldn't hold it back any longer, and quietly showed his big eyes, and waved quietly from over the railing. There was no response from the other side, so he lay down again in disappointment.

But I couldn't help wondering if the bad guy across the street had seen it. If I gave him the most delicious candy, could he negotiate not to go back? After all, there was nothing delicious in that shabby house except for the unpalatable white paste. He must be dying of greed!

The delicious food he brought later was also dry, unlike the candies and delicious food that Er Yuehong bought for him, which were fragrant and delicious enough that he couldn't stop eating them.

Besides, where is Sister Chen? Ever since she left, Jinnian has been thinking about her all the time. Sometimes he has hallucinations, as if he can still taste the special wine and smell the salty and wet smell of the sea.

Does he know where Sister Chen is?

As he was thinking, Jinnian touched his chest. The necklace hidden under his collar was not very noticeable sometimes, but it always made him feel safe.

We can’t favor one over the other. Jinnian patted the jade pendant on his waist and said, “I’ll touch you too!”

"Go and light a lamp."

"Yes!"

In private room number four, a man in a suit and small glasses came out and called the host.

"Our Chamber of Commerce demands that the lights be turned on!"

The host was not happy with his tone, but the smile on his lips did not change at all, and asked people to light the lamp.

"What does it mean to light a lamp?"

Jinnian stood up and looked up at the small lanterns hanging in private room number four. They were very beautiful, and under the bright lights in the venue, the light inside was not suppressed at all.

Qi Tiezui stood beside him, saw it as well, and explained it to him.

"Lighting up the lanterns means lighting up the sky lanterns. Lighting up the sky lanterns in an auction means booking the entire place."
