Pawn Crossing the River

"No need, I'll find the way by myself!" Glancing at the boy in front of him again, Mr. An stretched out his right hand, pushed aside the boy leading the way, and strode towards the central dining room with his head raised.

"Hello, distinguished guest, this is today's auction list." After Yi Sheng and He Liang were seated securely, the young man presented today's auction list.

There are five private rooms on the second floor, two on each side, and a large private room in the middle. The private dining room where Yi Sheng and the others were located was in the lower left corner.

Although the decoration of the private room is simple, it is quite luxurious. It is fully equipped with carvings and pendants. The windows are made of black crystal. The situation outside can be seen clearly from inside, but the situation inside cannot be seen clearly from the outside. There is a light above the private room. The word "three" should be the number three restaurant.

The second floor is slightly more upscale and is a special room for VIPs. The first floor is a staircase hall, which is dark and crowded with people. Judging from the coarse cloth clothes they wear, these people are villagers in the town or traveling merchants and vendors.

"Ghost Flame Mushroom?" He Liang said in surprise, holding the auction catalog in his hand.

"What is the Ghost Flame Mushroom? Is it very precious?" Seeing He Liang's expression, Yi Sheng knew that this herb was no ordinary, so he asked.

"The Ghost Flame Mushroom is a kind of sun grass with much better medicinal properties than the Warm Sun Grass. It grows near volcanic rocks that frequently erupt. Because the magma from volcanic eruptions will damage the Ghost Flame Mushroom, it must be grown after the Ghost Flame Mushroom matures. The chance of picking it before the volcano erupts is very small. Most of the Dark Flame Mushrooms will be burned before they mature. This is why it is so precious. I used to buy Warm Sun Grass here instead. I didn’t expect to meet the Dark Flame Mushroom this time.” The scar-headed boy He Liang smacked his lips and said.

"Ghost Flame Mushroom, young master, look, there is a Ghost Flame Mushroom in this auction." The attendant flattered Master An and pointed at a line of writing on the auction list in front of him and said to please him.

"Secret Flame Mushroom? Is that what Sun Grass?" Hearing the servant's words, Master An couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked.

"Yes, it's the legendary Yang Grass and the Living Jade Root Grass. They are good medicines for treating kidney deficiency, soreness and weakness in the waist and knees, liver and kidney deficiency. As long as you eat the Nether Flame Mushroom and Living Root Grass, hehe, I guarantee that you will be radiant and energetic, young master.

Cheer up and ride as hard as you want." The attendant flattered Master An with an exaggerated expression.

"Okay, buy, buy, buy them all for me." Upon hearing the attendant's description, Master An's eyes lit up and he said hello.

"On the sunny slopes of Shilin Forest, the yield is very rare. Its medicinal properties are mild and very rare. More importantly, it can refresh people's spirits and delay aging. It can be said to be a golden medicinal material among plants and a rare herb in the world." The auctioneer introduced loudly.

"Wow", after hearing the effect, a burst of surprise came from the lobby on the first floor.

"The starting price is three thousand gold coins."

"I'll pay five thousand."

"eight thousand"

"twelve thousand"

"..."

Even the VIP room on the second floor, which had been silent for a long time, also participated, which shows how attractive this jade root living grass is.

"One hundred thousand, the No. 1 restaurant has paid out one hundred thousand, is there anything higher?"

"One hundred and twenty thousand...Balroom No. 4 came out with one hundred and twenty thousand..."

"One hundred and thirty thousand..., the number one restaurant actually showed out one hundred and thirty thousand."

"One hundred and fifty thousand... The number 4 restaurant sold an astonishing one hundred and fifty thousand."

The voice of the auction manager kept echoing in the auction hall.

"Bah! You dare to snatch things from me. You're tired of living. Go find out who is in the fourth room. I'll skin him alive." Master An angrily smashed the teacup in his hand, stamped his feet and cursed.

"Yes, yes, little one, let's go check it out." The attendant next to Master An quickly said yes, turned around and walked out.

"I still don't believe it. I can't even buy a small jade root grass. I keep calling until I buy it." Master An shouted.

"Two hundred thousand...House No. 1 reported two hundred thousand."

"Two hundred thousand, is there any higher..."

"Two hundred thousand, once"

"Two hundred thousand, twice"

"Two hundred thousand, three times, the transaction was completed. Congratulations to the No. 1 restaurant for winning the sacred jade root and live grass." Looking at the person in charge of announcing the news on the stage, Master An was itching with hatred and wished he could just put him

He kicked it down and smashed the hammer himself, but he could only think about it. He also understood in his heart that although his father dominated the small town of Andomao, all aspects of the relationship were still there.

They all have to be taken care of. What can open the auction house is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Master An will not be stupid enough to get into trouble unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Next, there is the last herb in this auction house, the Ghost Flame Mushroom. The Ghost Flame Mushroom is a kind of solstice grass. It grows near volcanic rocks that often erupt. Like the Jade Root Live Grass, it replenishes Yang energy.

The starting price is also three thousand gold coins."

"..."

"One hundred thousand...House No. 1 reported one hundred thousand."

"110,000...Balroom No. 3 has been increased to 110,000."

"I've been hit by evil spirits today. No one dares to go against me." Master An kicked over the coffee table in front of him, pointed at the No. 3 private room and cursed loudly. But the private dining room on the second floor was blackened

Surrounded by glass, no one can be seen in the third room.

"Master, we have already spent 200,000 yuan on live grass. We don't have enough money, so we can't buy more." The attendant on the side considered it for a moment and reminded him. He's afraid that he will really

If you take the photo and don't have money to pay the bill, the matter will become a big deal.

"Okay, stop yelling and keep an eye on the people in private rooms No. 3 and No. 4. Haha, not only did I receive all the things according to the order, but they also had to pay me. I don't believe it. In Andomao small town

Someone actually dares to go against our An family and rebel against him." Master An glanced back and forth between the No. 3 and No. 4 rooms, and said with a ferocious expression.

"One hundred and ten thousand, once..."

"One hundred and ten thousand, twice...someone else offered a better price..."

"One hundred and ten thousand, three..."

"Twenty thousand, okay, the number two office reported 120,000."

"One hundred and thirty thousand. Not to be outdone, Hall No. 3 quoted another hundred and thirty thousand."

"One hundred and forty thousand, there is a sign in the second room, it has been raised to one hundred and forty thousand."

"Wow, 150,000. No. 3 Hall did not hesitate at all and quickly raised his sign. It seems that he is determined to win this Nether Flame Mushroom. The war has entered a fierce stage."

"150,000, will a miracle happen?"

"One hundred and fifty thousand, once..."

"One hundred and fifty thousand, two times..."

"Gang leader, do you think we need to add more?" In the No. 2 private room, a girl wearing black clothes frowned and stared at the No. 3 private room opposite.

The white-haired old man beside him asked.

"Forget it, continuing to fight like this is not an option. Send someone to keep an eye on it to see if there is an opportunity to take action." The white-haired old man waved his hand and replied.

"One hundred and fifty thousand, three times...a deal!"

"Oh, it hurts so much. Stop fighting. Stop fighting. Master An, we don't dare to fight anymore." A young man was rolling on the ground with his face covered in blood, and his blue windbreaker was stained with blood.

It was extremely filthy, and around him lay five or six wailing servants, who were obviously the subordinates of the young man in blue.

"Who else..."

"I don't understand. In this quiet and peaceful town of Andomao, there are still people who dare to go against such a handsome and charming eldest son of Anfu like me. There are still people in this world.

If there is no heavenly principle, is there any royal law? "Master An was playing with two crystal balls in his hands and holding a toothpick in his mouth, and said with a pretentious look on his face.

"I really don't dare. We don't know that Mr. An is the one in charge of the first restaurant. If we knew it was you, we wouldn't dare to steal things from you even if we had a hundred courages." The young master in blue quickly knelt down

On the ground, he begged.

"Don't look at your virtues. Are you able to get your hands on something as rare as jade root grass? Is it something that ordinary people can enjoy? In the entire town of Andomao, I am the only one, Mr. An.

Only then can you be worthy of this living jade root grass. As the old saying goes, this is called a treasure matching a hero."

"Yes, yes, Mr. An said that this Jade Root Live Grass can only be enjoyed by Mr. An. I was so hot-headed that I contradicted Mr. An. I don't dare to do it anymore." The boy in blue didn't even care.

He lost face. Although his family was considered prestigious in Andomao, it was far behind compared to the An family. He had heard of Master An's arrogance and domineering, and it was important to save his life.

"You are very knowledgeable and have a bright future. I am very optimistic about you. Shouldn't you be the one to pay for the 200,000 gold coins to buy Jade Root Live Grass?" Master An stared at the boy in blue and said with a smile.

"This...", the boy in blue was furious for a moment. Master An took the photo of this living jade root, and the goods were in his hands, so there was no reason to pay for it himself.

"Huh?" Seeing that the boy in blue didn't answer, Master An raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly.

"Yes, yes, it's our turn. It's our honor to serve Master An. Here are 180,000 gold coins. The remaining 20,000 gold coins will be sent to An's house immediately after we go back and make preparations."

The boy in blue hurriedly agreed, took out a gold card from his arms and handed it over. He wanted to stay away from this shameless master now.

"Forget it, Master, I have a lot of money, just forget about the 20,000." Master An took the gold card and after confirming that it indeed contained 180,000 gold coins, he smiled and put it in his arms.

"Master..." At this moment, an attendant hurried over.

"Have you got the stuff?" Seeing the visitor, Master An said lazily.

"Uh...", the attendant hesitated.

"Say it loudly. Master, I'm here to support you. What are you afraid of? Master, I just want to kill people and steal the Nether Flame Mushroom. How can I do it? Who dares to disobey?" Master An said to the attendants.

shouted arrogantly. The people sent out to chase the people in Box 3 were two elders from the family. They were hired by his father at a high price to protect him. The An family had made many enemies over the years, and Master An was reluctant to use them, so they were sent to protect Young Master An.

"The two guest elders, they... they... are dead." The attendant's face was covered with sweat and he replied tremblingly.

"Bang", the two jade balls in Master An's hand instantly fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

"Let's go." Ignoring the two corpses on the ground, He Liang clapped his hands, stepped into the carriage compartment, and said to the coachman Lao Yu.

"Drive..." The carriage started again.

Facing the death of others for the first time, Yi Sheng was still a little unaccustomed to it, and his fair face became even paler.
