Liyue.

The night deepened, and fireworks danced wildly.

Yae Shenzi and Lei Dianying walked side by side in Liyue City.

Waves of cheers came from the front.

It was obvious that the auction was held in front of them. The two of them had already seen the crowds of people watching.

Yae Shenzi covered her mouth and chuckled, turned her head and looked at Lei Dianying beside her and said, "Bai Ye is quite playful. He even held an auction."

Lei Dianying nodded and said, "Bai Ye... He can often come up with some weird things..."

"Should we go over and take a look?"

Ye Shenzi's eyes flashed with excitement.

She was forced to work as a coolie by Lei Dianying in the castle tower for a long time.

Now that she has come to Liyue and encountered the auction hosted by Bai Ye, she can no longer hold back.

"There are so many people here, how should we get in?"

Lei Dianying frowned. She didn't want to force her way in, as this would hurt ordinary people by mistake.

If things go wrong, it will be a diplomatic crisis between Liyue and Inazuma.

"This is easy."

"Please give your hand to the wise and beautiful Lord Yae Shenzi."

Yae Shenzi stretched out her hand to Lei Dianying and said excitedly.

Hearing what Yae Shenzi said, Lei Dianying frowned, but still held her hand.

Yae Shenzi laughed and squeezed Lei Dianying's palm.

Then two lights, one purple and one pink, lit up.

Lei Dianying and Yae Shenzi disappeared, replaced by two little foxes, one pink and one purple.

"Let's go."

The pink fox waved its claws, signaling the purple fox to follow it.

"So this is your method..."

The purple fox's mouth kept twitching.

She thought Yae Shenzi would have some special method, but it turned out to be a fox.

A sly look flashed in the pink fox's eyes, and she said in a soft voice: "Otherwise, this is the simplest and most effective way."

The purple fox remained silent and followed the pink fox silently.

The smile in the pink fox's eyes became more and more intense, and even the posture of walking became more cheerful.

Liyue, auction.

Bai Ye walked up to the auction platform with the box of pipes in his arms, and tried a color on Hu Tao in the audience.

Hu Tao nodded heavily, gently waved the number plate in his hand, and signaled Bai Ye to rest assured.

Seeing Hu Tao's series of actions, Bai Ye nodded with satisfaction.

Hu Tao is still as reassuring as always.

Tartaglia in the audience had a black line on his face, and he couldn't wait.

This time, he came with the death order of the Queen of Winter, and came specially for Ningguang's pipe.

He sat at the auction all night and finally waited for the auction of this item.

As a result, Bai Ye was still hesitating, which made him feel extremely irritated.

In contrast.

The girl who was the third executive officer of the Fatui lay on the table, closed her eyes tightly, and even breathing came from her mouth and nose.

Obviously... she had fallen asleep.

.....

"Time flies so fast, and it's our last item in a blink of an eye."

"I believe most people came for this item, so the auction will start now."

Bai Ye smiled and put the pipe on the auction table.

What the hell?

The auction started?

The audience, including those watching outside, all looked puzzled.

Why did the auction start without saying the starting price?

"To me, this pipe is a priceless treasure, and it is impossible to measure it with a price."

"I believe everyone knows its value, and you can bid for it. Even if it is sold for 1 Mora, I will accept it."

Bai Ye took out the auction hammer and stood calmly beside the auction table.

He was naturally not worried about the price being too low, because there was her agent sitting below.

Bai Ye blinked at Hu Tao in the audience.

"50 billion!"

Hu Tao nodded knowingly, raised the number plate in her hand, and said a number that shocked Bai Ye.

Bai Ye was stunned and looked at Hu Tao in disbelief.

Zhuo.

Are you crazy?

Who the hell did you learn this from? How can you raise the price like this?

At the beginning, he directly bid 50 billion, which was enough to scare everyone away.

Hu Tao crossed her arms and looked at Bai Ye with a smug look on her face, as if waiting for Bai Ye's praise.

The corners of Bai Ye's mouth kept twitching, and he felt his eyes go dark and he almost fainted.

Bai Ye is lazyHe had to pay attention to Hu Tao, and he was constantly thinking about solutions.

The original thought in his mind that "Hu Tao is really reliable" also disappeared without a trace.

......

Ningguang frowned when she heard Hu Tao report this number.

She knew that Hu Tao was Bai Ye's agent and would keep raising the price in order to prepare for a high price.

But Ningguang really didn't understand what the operation of asking for 50 billion was.

According to common sense, gradually raising the price is the best way to arouse everyone's desire to bid.

A high price at the beginning is enough to persuade everyone to retreat.

"Master Ningguang, now it's 50 billion, should we add another hand?"

Bai Wen turned his head to look at Ningguang and asked with a worried look.

"No, let's observe and see if anyone continues to bid."

Ningguang touched his chin and said calmly.

-------------------------------------

PS: I would like to explain the question "Zhongli obviously has five collections, why only two of them are described?" separately.

If the auction is held, it would seem too empty if there is only Ningguang's pipe, so I added five collections of Zhongli, but if I describe them all in detail, it would seem too long-winded and there would be suspicion of watering down the word count.

I think just two are enough. If I have to write about three, I can at least write six chapters, but it would seem too watery, so I just skipped the part about these three collections.
