The host had initially doubted the authenticity of the snuff bottle, but the organiser had requested this to be the first treasure to be displayed, so he had no way to refuse.

However, after he had just announced the 50,000 bid, no one had raised the price. He had thought that the snuff bottle was going to be carried down, but he had not expected that someone would raise the price at the last second. Moreover, this increase had doubled the price.

Indeed, it was not blamed for others to think so, because the host himself had thought so too.

His eyes looked at the source of the sound and realized that it was the seat of the distinguished guest on the third floor.

He was shocked. In the room on the third floor… Only that man had the right to sit there.

Then this snuff bottle, let alone 100,000, even if it was a million, as long as he wanted it, he would not even blink.

“100,000 going once! 100,000 going twice! 100,000 going three times –” The host hammered the hammer. “100,000, sold!”

‘The attendant took the snuff bottle down on a tray, and a new attendant brought up a new treasure.

“Today’s second treasure is –” The host lifted the red cloth. “It’s a plane tree bodhisattva!”

“Hua –” The crowd lost their composure.

The host continued, “The starting bid for this treasure is 200,000!”

At that moment, many people raised their bids. “220,000!”

“250,000!”

“300,000!”

Regarding this Plane Tree Bodhisattva, those who believed in Buddhism were especially ruthless in raising their bids. They immediately doubled the bid by 300,000. “600,000!”

Mo Long on the third floor looked at the bodhisattva. He thought that his grandfather was also a Buddhist, so he wanted to continue raising the bid and buy this bodhisattva.

Jiang Yu saw through his thoughts and quickly stopped him, saying, “If you buy this Bodhisattva, I’m afraid you’ll really become a sucker.”

Mo Long paused and slowly put down the sign in his hand.

Jiang Yu could see that he was still reluctant to part with this bodhisattva, so she explained, “This plane tree bodhisattva is indeed very good, but it’s not worth this price at all. Because it is carved out of wood, after so many years of exposure to the wind and the Sun, it can not last for long. It is very likely

that after this bodhisattva is bought back, a slight touch will shatter it. If that is the case, I am afraid that would be truly disrespectful.”

Mo Long finally calmed down and gave up on competing with this bodhisattva.

Seeing that no one increased the price, the host shouted, “600,000 going once! 600,000 going twice! 600,000 going three times –” The host hammered the hammer again. “Deal!”

The person who bought the bodhisattva was very excited and could not wait to get off the stage, ready to take his treasure.

‘The waiter carefully handed the bodhisattva over, he exhorted, “Distinguished guest, this bodhisattva is carved out of wood. After so many years of wind and Sun, it has long been loose. You need to be very careful, or it will be damaged.”

‘When the guest bought this bodhisattva, his mind was filled with this bodhisattva. He did not listen to a single word the waiter said. He replied, “Okay, I got it, I got it.”

He took the bodhisattva and could not put it down. However, on the way back to his seat, he accidentally slipped. He was fine, but the Bodhisattva in his hand fell to the ground and broke into a few pieces.

The guest’s heart tightened. He had a heart attack and fell to the ground unconscious.

This was an unexpected situation. No one had expected that the guest who had come to the auction would suddenly have a heart attack. The organizer was also very frightened. He quickly stopped the auction and signaled the waiters in the villa to contact the ambulance..
