Gods: Start with Goblins
Chapter 521: Relics from 5 epochs ago
.The others were discussing silently nearby, because they were all looking forward to whether the person who had spoken before would raise the price next.
"It's really surprising that people would bid so much for such a small thing."
"That's right, I don't even like this piece of broken ceramic."
However, there were still some people around who could see some clues.
"Not necessarily. This ceramic bowl is not as simple as it looks. It contains spiritual power, but people who have not yet entered the door cannot feel it."
"But just based on the value of this ceramic bowl that contains a little bit of spiritual power, it is definitely not worth that much money. It is really not good for them to drive up the price so much."
The man who figured out the secret of the ceramic bowl slapped his forehead.
"I figured it out. The reason why they bid so fiercely is probably because they have a grudge against each other!!"
After his reminder, everyone suddenly realized that this was the most likely scenario.
"But now that the price has been raised to 130 million, I'm afraid they won't raise it any further, as it will completely overflow its value!"
“That’s right, I think the person who took the last photo is going to feel the pain.”
At this time, the host was ready to say it for the third time.
He deliberately waited for a while, just to see if Luodan would continue to raise the price, but when he saw no movement, he made the final decision.
"Good 130 million three times, the auction is successful!"
At that time, Wang Wuyi, who had been raising the price, was already very scared. After all, 130 million was not a small amount of money.
He didn't expect that Luodan would suddenly stop at this time. He felt panicked and surprised.
Although his family can afford 130 million, if his father and mother knew that he spent 130 million to buy such a thing, they would probably not let him off easily.
But now that things have been decided, there is no chance to regret even if I want to.
After hearing this number, everyone became excited again.
"Oh my god, I spent 130 million to buy this ceramic bottle. That's too much money!"
"Then I realized that in the end, the photographer didn't even move him. He didn't even hold the sign in his hand. It seemed like he didn't even have any intention of raising it."
"You said this guy has been chasing the price closely. What does he mean by that? Could it be that the two of them are really at odds with each other as we speculated?"
Others originally thought that the person who paid the most generously at the beginning would eventually win the auction item, but they didn't expect that it would end up in the hands of someone else.
Wang Wuyi is usually a rich young man. If he wants to buy something he likes, he will go to the auction to buy it.
However, there was no item that interested him this time.
He followed closely after learning that Luodan was coming to the auction, just to change Luodan's mentality.
But after such an auction, it seemed that he was the one who was confused.
Someone immediately came forward and stood outside his private room.
"Hello, Mr. Wang, you have won this item. Do you need to pay now and then get the item?"
Wang Wuyi's fingers were crackling in the private room. He never expected that he would be tricked by Luo Dan like this. He was really unhappy.
I have been defeated twice by Luodan, and I will never make the same mistake again next time.
Not long after, the auction ended and everyone started to disperse.
Luodan did not feel much regret about not buying the item he wanted.
Anyway, he's just here to join in the fun. If there's something he really likes, he'll definitely do everything he can to get it.
But as for today's thing, 130 million, just consider it as a rip-off.
Luo Dan was just about to go back, but was stopped by Wang Wuyi halfway.
"Hey, we meet again. I still remember you were showing off in front of me last time. Now you seem to be in a bad mood. Is it because you didn't get the auction item you wanted at the auction?"
When Luo Dan saw that Wang Wuyi was indeed holding the auction item, and it was the one he was competing with, he immediately understood.
The victim was none other than the simple-minded but strong-limbed Wang Wuyi.
"This ceramic worth more than one million feels different in your hands."
Although Wang Wuyi felt very painful, he still smiled and tried his best to suppress the painful expression on his face.
Hearing this, Luo Dan glanced at him helplessly.
He really didn't want to say so much. Although the other party looked very cocky, it still wouldn't affect it.
Wang Wuyi was very upset after being beaten by Luo Dan once before, and he was even more upset now.
As soon as he got what Luodan wanted, he immediately came to Luodan to show off, but the other party looked indifferent, as if he didn't care about this ceramic worth more than one million at all.
This Luo Dan really doubted whether the other party was a clown.
In fact, all these things were within Luodan's control, and he could guess them. But the other party came to scold him, and was even so proud of it. Then he felt speechless.
"Then just hold on to it. It's over a million dollars. Don't break it, or you'll be left with nothing to worry about."
Luo Dan thought he was stupid, but didn't want to say too much.
After saying this, Luo Dan turned around and left.
Wang Wuyi stood there, and he felt like he hadn't finished speaking yet when Luo Dan left.
"Why did you just leave like that? Aren't you going to take a look?"
"Isn't this what you wanted? Why don't you even take a look at it? Do you feel that you lost to me and you are unwilling to accept it?"
Luodan could still hear what he said in front, but Luodan thought he was too stupid and didn't want to pay attention to him, so he just walked away.
At this time, only Wang Wuyi came back alone. He was holding the bottles worth more than 130 million and was very shocked.
He even felt that the item was suddenly not worth it.
He didn't know when he would be able to make up the one million. It seemed that after getting this job, he would only be happy when he mocked Luo Dane. At other times, he felt very stressed.
So he returned to his mansion with a gloomy face.
……
"My Lord, you are back. Let me pour you a cup of tea."
At this time, the servant saw Wang Wu coming back and immediately walked forward.
Whenever Wang Wu was at home, he was like a proud protagonist, naturally exuding an innate majesty. His eyes always seemed to be high above him, and he almost never really looked down at the servants in the house, as if they did not exist in his sight. This attitude implicitly revealed his contempt for the servants, as if they were just supporting roles in his life, and he was the absolute master of this family.
In Wang Wu's eyes, the servants in his home seemed to be just minor characters in his life, and their existence seemed to be just to set off his nobility and authority. He rarely looked them in the eye, let alone really cared about them. His attitude was like that of a king in an ancient castle, indifferent to the lives of his subjects and only concerned about his own power and status.
He actually didn't do much by himself.
Many things are done by directing subordinates.
"Why is this tea so cold tonight?!"
At that time, the old woman just wanted to make some tea for Wang Wuyi. After all, it was getting late, and he had just come back, so he must be thirsty. However, the old woman waited for a long time, but Wang Wuyi didn't come back, so the tea got cold without her noticing.
The old woman immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
"Please calm down, Prince Wang. It's my fault. I'll go make you another cup right away."
Wang Wuyi was in a bad mood today, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was no need to continue to be angry about such things.
So he just snorted coldly and let the old woman go downstairs to make tea again.
As a result, when the old woman was about to bring it over, she suddenly felt as if there was something underneath and tripped her.
"Oh my, my tea..."
At this time, the old woman's whole body was not stable, her center of gravity was unstable, and her hand holding the teacup was not very stable and was shaking.
The old woman is old and her body is not as flexible as that of young people.
The next second she rushed forward and stood in front of Wang Wuyi, but all the tea in her hands spilled.
"What's wrong with you? How come you can't even make a cup of tea?"
Wang Wuyi looked at the old woman in front of him. She seemed so restless and clumsy in her movements, which made him feel dissatisfied. Her messy steps, trembling hands, and confused eyes from time to time made him feel that this so-called servant was far from meeting his standards. The anger that he had tried hard to suppress, at this moment, spread rapidly in his heart like a ignited fuse, ready to explode.
"It seems that I haven't had enough training, and I haven't taught you enough rules. You must be punished today."
After hearing this, the old woman was very worried.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Mr. Wang. Don't worry, I will pay more attention next time. I was really wrong this time. Please give me another chance."
The old woman was really scared. She didn't expect something like this to happen. She wanted to calm herself down, but she couldn't.
When Wang Wu heard these words, a sneer appeared on his face.
"Why should I forgive you? You can't even do such a small thing. You are worse than trash!"
Originally, he was full of anger after returning from the auction today.
He had to send it out today, otherwise he would really suffocate himself to death.
When the old woman saw Wang Wuyi getting so angry today, her heart was in her throat.
She didn't know how to beg for mercy. Although Wang Wuyi would lose his temper sometimes, he would never be as harsh as he was today.
Moreover, the mother-in-law felt that she was getting old and some mistakes were inevitable, but she really wanted to stay and did not want to lose this job.
"Even if you kneel here until you die, I will not forgive you. I must punish you. Only after being punished can you remember the lesson this time. Otherwise, you will make the same mistake again next time."
After hearing these words, the old woman was almost in despair. She had not expected Wang Wuyi to be so decisive.
"Alright, no need to say any more. Drag you back and give you 40 lashes. If you can make it through, you're lucky. If you can't, you're dead!"
Wang Wuyi's eyes were as cold as the frost in winter, so sharp that they seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts. When he stared at the old woman, his deep eyes had lost their warmth, and became like looking at a lifeless object, as if looking at a dead soul. That kind of indifference and ruthlessness made people shudder, as if his eyes carried a breath of death that made people unable to look directly at him.
Ye Man heard the noise in Wang Wuyi's room and arrived at his door without knowing when.
If it weren't for the family rule that all the collateral families must come today to meet each other, just as a formality and etiquette, she wouldn't want to come.
Hearing the shrill apology and the sound of various things being smashed, Ye Man pushed open the door and wanted to see what was going on.
Ye Man soon stood by and listened silently to the conversation between Wang Wuyi and the old woman.
At first, Ye Man thought it was an unforgivable crime and felt that Wang Wuyi had gone too far. Moreover, the old woman's tea was not poured on him, but just spilled to the side.
But he just wanted to make a big deal out of nothing and had to punish the other party.
"Okay, if you really don't want to be spanked, that's fine."
Wang Wuyi also realized that Ye Man was coming, so he made the punishment a little lighter.
After all, Ye Man was not someone he could afford to offend, and it would be bad if he embarrassed her.
"Tomorrow you will hold this basin of water, raise your hands high, and kneel under the sun. If you don't kneel there for four hours today, don't get up..."
When the old woman heard this, she was completely stunned.
She was thinking that if she knelt in the sun holding such a large basin of water for four hours, her legs would be ruined.
Ye Man was getting angrier and angrier the more she listened.
The old woman is already old. If she kneels there for four hours, her knees will probably be broken and she won't be able to walk.
And you have to be under the sun, if you get heatstroke, your life will definitely be in danger.
I was just serving tea and water, but my legs were not flexible and I spilled the water. Do I have to ruin other people's legs like this?
The old woman beside her was almost crying.
"I beg you, Prince Wang, please let me go this time. If I kneel there for four hours, I will really be finished."
Wang Wuyi just didn't take these words seriously, mainly because he never took the lives of these servants seriously.
"If you don't accept this punishment, then get out and don't come back."
The old woman was really in a dilemma. If she went out, she would have no place to live and no food to eat.
At least she can still do some work here and earn some money. If she goes out, she really can't imagine the consequences.
Ye Man, who had been listening silently, finally couldn't stand it anymore.
"You don't have to do this, do you?"
"It was just an accidental trip, and the tea didn't fall on you. Why do you have to be so aggressive?"
After saying these words, Ye Man frowned and looked at Wang Wuyi.
She has never liked this cousin.
If it weren't for this little bit of blood relationship, he wouldn't even want to set foot in this place.
The Wang family that Wang Wuyi belongs to is a branch of the entire Wang family, and the reason why she, Ye Man, has the surname Ye is because she took her mother's surname.
The connection between me and this big family is neither close nor distant.
Ye Man had a nonchalant attitude towards getting along with the Wang family. She knew very well that this was just a superficial perfunctory social interaction. She had never really integrated into it, nor had she ever planned to have a deep relationship with the Wang family. Her eyes revealed a hint of indifference, as if this interpersonal game was nothing but a passing cloud to her, and was not worth her investing too much emotion and energy in.
She came here today just to go through the motions, but after seeing these things, she really couldn't bear it anymore.
This is really an exaggeration.
"You have nothing to do here. You'd better take care of yourself."
When hearing this, Ye Man sneered a few times.
She wondered in her heart, how did Wang Wuyi have the courage and confidence to say such a thing? Where did he get the confidence and qualifications to make such a rash statement?
He is a waste, and at most he has been able to build up a little foundation with the support of his family.
Apart from that, he can do nothing but abuse his power to dominate others.
"Why is it that I have nothing to do with it? Although my last name is Ye, and this is just a branch family, it is still considered a branch of the Wang family after all." (End of this chapter)
