Grave Robber: Beginnings Fusion Hydra Cypress

Chapter 75 Even if the sky falls, it’s okay

No matter how thick-skinned the fat man is, he still feels embarrassed.

He smiled innocently.

"I am not a handsome boy, so please stop making fun of me."

Ji Changsheng laughed and pointed at the crowd.

"Fat man, believe it or not, many beauties will come to you and ask for your phone number."

The fat man took a look at the crowd. Sure enough, there were many young and beautiful beauties, and his eyes lit up.

"Really? Mr. Ji, are you kidding me?"

"When have I ever told a lie?"

"That's not true! So, I'm going to have good luck today!"

Although Wuxie and Aning didn't understand what was going on, they vaguely sensed something was wrong.

But with Mr. Ji in charge, they didn't have anything to worry about, so they didn't ask any more questions.

At this time, the door of the private room was pushed open, and Miss Yin hurried in.

He said with a somewhat nervous expression.

"Mr. Ji, do you really want to do this?"

Ji Changsheng nodded and asked with a smile.

"Can't I?"

Miss Yin quickly explained.

"No, of course you can. It's just that there are too many guests today. I'm afraid someone will deliberately try to make excuses and you will suffer a loss."

Ji Changsheng smiled calmly.

"Thank you for your kindness. I know it well, so you don't need to ask any more questions."

Miss Yin looked confused and opened her mouth, but finally said nothing more.

"Yes, I'll go down first."

After she left, the fat man asked curiously.

"Mr. Ji, that waiter and Miss Yin, what are they talking about?"

Ji Changsheng then explained with a smile.

"Fat man, you lit the sky lantern, you are the protagonist here today!"

Fatty, Wuxie, and Aning were all stunned.

"What is a sky lantern?"

Ji Changsheng stretched out his hand and pointed at the lantern.

“Once you hang up that lantern, it means the venue is reserved!”

The fat man blinked.

"Private the theater? Are you inviting everyone to watch the show and drink tea?"

"It's really stylish. No wonder they are all looking at me."

Ji Changsheng laughed and shook his head.

"Lighting up sky lanterns means that the auction will be reserved!"

"You want everything in the auction, no matter the price!"

As soon as these words came out, Fatty was stunned for a moment.

Then, his expression changed drastically.

"What?!"

“Auction all inclusive!!”

Wuxie and Aning were also stunned.

"Mr. Ji, doesn't the auction go to the highest bidder?"

"Can we still reserve the venue?"

Ji Changsheng nodded and smiled.

"Of course you can reserve the venue. After lighting the sky lanterns, no matter how much others bid, the price will be automatically increased until the other party gives in!"

Wu Xie's eyes widened.

"What if someone raises the bar? If the price is deliberately raised very high, do we have to keep increasing it?"

Ji Changsheng nodded and explained to them.

It turns out that the Crescent Hotel existed hundreds of years ago. At that time, the emperor was still there and the streets in the capital were filled with princes and nobles.

These people have a lot of money and no place to spend it. Their favorite thing is to fight for wealth in different ways!

It was these people who invented lighting sky lanterns.

Since the people participating in the auction are all high-profile people, lighting sky lanterns usually has a bottom line and will not get out of hand.

However, sometimes in order to stand out in front of beautiful women, some people will lose their minds and spend all their money to have a beautiful smile!

For example, decades ago, Lord Zhang lit three sky lanterns and spent more than half of his family property to win Yin Xinyue's favor.

Zhang Dafo Ye’s feats are still talked about by people today.

After hearing Ji Changsheng's explanation, the fat man was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat.

"Wouldn't that mean going bankrupt?! I can't afford this!"

However, he immediately remembered something.

"Huh? Mr. Ji, when did I say I wanted to light up the sky lanterns?"

Ji Changsheng pointed at the stool he was sitting on.

"This stool is reserved for those who light sky lanterns. Sitting on it means lighting sky lanterns!"

The fat man jumped up immediately, feeling like he had been stung by a wasp on his butt.

"This doesn't count. I didn't know there was such a rule beforehand!"

"No, I have to take down the lantern!"

Ji Changsheng laughed.

"It's useless. If you break the rules, will we still be able to do business here?"

"These hundreds of years of rules cannot be broken in your hands."

Only then did the fat man realize that Mr. Ji was playing a trick on him.

He immediately stepped forward bitterly and begged for mercy.

"Mr. Ji, please stop playing tricks on me. Even if you sell me, I'm not worth that much money!"

"It's a small matter if I break the rules, but it's a big deal if I embarrass you!"

Ji Changsheng smiled when he saw that he had teased him enough.

"I asked you to sit down. How can I embarrass you? Sit down peacefully."

As soon as he said this, the fat man suddenly realized that he had Mr. Ji backing him, so what a damn thing he was afraid of!

Even if the sky falls, Mr. Ji will hold you up!

He can show off as much as he wants today!

"Okay!"

While he was talking, the whole place fell silent.

A tall young beauty walked onto the stage with a voice as beautiful as an oriole.

"On behalf of Crescent Hotel, I welcome you to today's auction."

"First of all, let me announce something to everyone."

"Today's auction will allow for barter transactions."

As soon as these words came out, the guests in the audience had no objections, but many people expressed interest.

Those who can participate in this kind of auction are regulars, and everyone knows the rules.

"If everyone has no questions, let's start the first round of bidding today."

A waiter brought out a white jade Guanyin statue and placed it on a large table for display.

Several large screens showed all the details of the collection, and the people in the audience could see it clearly.

"The reserve price is five million, and the bid is one hundred thousand."

"Start bidding."

Unlike ordinary auctions, no one here will explain the value of the collection in detail.

How to judge the value of the collection depends entirely on the customer's vision.

People who can come here are all experts, or they will bring treasure appraisal experts. No layman will participate in this kind of auction.

This is a symbol of identity and status!

At this time, a man in the front row shook a bell.

Here, bidding does not involve raising a sign, but shaking a bell.

Shaking it means raising the price once.

Ji Changsheng glanced at the white jade Guanyin statue, not interested at all, and absent-mindedly ate melon seeds.

Wu Xie grew up in an antique shop, and he is an expert in this area.

He immediately acted as a free commentator.

"This is a jade Guanyin from the Tang Dynasty. It is of excellent quality and made of top-grade materials. Such a large Guanyin statue is very rare."

"A few years ago, Caltex auctioned a smaller one and it was sold for 14 million."

"I estimate that this one must be at least 20 million."

The fat man was shocked and asked quickly.

"Mr. Ji, what if someone deliberately makes trouble and raises the price to a sky-high price? Wouldn't we lose a lot then?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a bell rang from the audience!
