The Reversal of a Son-in-law

Chapter 252 A Terrifying Existence (1)

long chen touched his nose, but he was not angry at the man's words.

thinking back carefully, his question just now was indeed lacking some manners.

"big brother, i'm sorry. please forgive me for my rudeness."

long chen said with a smile.

the crew cut man was stunned. he didn't expect long chen to apologize.

he looked at long chen a few more times and vaguely felt that this young man had an extraordinary temperament.

"kid, you seem to be quite good. let me tell you." "that treasure is said to be the white jade cup that yang jian used for a long time," the man with the crew cut laughed.

"this ... isn't that a little ridiculous?"

long chen was shocked.

erlang immortal master, yang jian, had a strong presence in the legends.

however, in reality, it was still unknown if there was such a person.

not to mention the white jade cup he had used.

" i also think that he's bragging. however, the yu gu auction house of the qian prefecture has always had a good reputation. they have almost never produced any counterfeits. let's see what will happen after the auction starts. "

the man with the crew cut said.

"that's true."

long chen nodded lightly and said no more.

time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for the auction to officially begin.

the auctioneer stood on the stage, and after a passionate speech, the first auction item was officially invited onto the stage.

the girl in a cheongsam with a great figure carefully placed the auction item on a tray on the auctioneer's table.

the auctioneer pointed at the item and said in a clear voice, " "this is a very common chinese knotweed, but it is very different from ordinary chinese knotweeds. this chinese knotgrass is in the shape of a dragon.

at this point, perhaps you might think that this thing is artificially cultivated. it's only natural for you to have such thoughts.

after all, there were records in history that the emperor of a certain dynasty had been deceived by such means.

however, the chinese knotweed in front of me is not artificially cultivated. it was dug up by a farmer deep in the mountains. after several transfers, it was finally bought by an expert and brought to our auction house. friends who are interested in this item, do not miss it. the starting price is 100000, and each increment must not be less than 50000."

as soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately began to bid.

"i'll pay 150000."

" the gentleman in seat 7 has bid 150000. is there a higher bid? " the auctioneer looked at seat number seven.

"i'll pay two hundred thousand,"

"three hundred thousand."

many of the people present were bidding.

after staring at the chinese knotweed for a while, long chen realized that it didn't look like it had been cultivated by humans. there was a spiritual qi fluctuation in it, which successfully piqued long chen's interest.

"the first auction item already has what i need. it seems that choosing to come to the auction house was the right choice."

long chen thought to himself.

he saw that everyone was bidding, but the price was increased by 50000 by 50000. after a long time, the price had only reached 550000.

long chen couldn't stand it anymore. he slowly raised his board."five million."

wuah.

the crowd was shocked and looked at long chen.

it's just a chinese knotweed, yet he's willing to pay five million?

"is this guy crazy?"

"it's not fun, it's not fun. i'm not competing anymore."

"let him have it. it's not worth it to spend five million on a chinese knotweed."

everyone's bidding stopped.

the auctioneer looked at long chen in disbelief. he shouted excitedly, " "five million, is there a higher price than five million?

five million going once, five million going twice, five million going thrice! congratulations to the gentleman in number 18, you have successfully won the dragon-shaped fleeceflower root."

long chen put away the token, looking quite calm.

" little brother, you spent five million on a chinese knotweed, and you don't even know if it's artificially cultivated. is it worth it? "

the crew cut man asked long chen curiously.

" i don't know. " long chen shook his head and smiled. " i'll just play with it. "

"awesome."

the man with the crew cut gave him a thumbs up. he couldn't help but be impressed.

it seemed that this guy was not lacking in money.

the auction continued. the next five items were all worth collecting, but long chen was not interested in them.

he was not interested in collections or wealth. he was only interested in things with spiritual energy.

two hours passed by in the blink of an eye.

just as long chen was about to fall asleep, he heard the auctioneer's voice on the stage, " "the next item is one of the three final items for tonight.

it came from the pre-qin dynasty and was once used by the qi cultivators of the pre-qin dynasty. when this item was discovered, there was an ancient elixir recipe beside it. however, the elixir recipe was already in a state of ruin. we had to spend a lot of effort to decipher a few words and guessed that it was an elixir recipe.

of course, to be honest, we're only making a rough guess. it's not very accurate. if you're interested, you can study it for yourself."

after that, the auctioneer called for the treasures to be brought up.

the treasure on the stage was an ancient sword.

the sword was still stainless after thousands of years, and there were some ancient runes on it.

when others looked at these runes, although they felt that they were mysterious, they could not sense anything else.

however, long chen immediately sensed that this item was extraordinary. these runes seemed to be seals, and there seemed to be a monstrous power hidden within the sword.

at that moment, long chen decided that no matter what price he had to pay, he had to get this sword.

even if he had to snatch it, he had to snatch the sword away today.

" ladies and gentlemen, the starting price of this ancient sword is one million, and each bid must be no less than one hundred thousand. treasures are rare, and if you miss it, you may regret it for the rest of your life. i hereby announce that the bidding begins. "

"three million,"

"i'll pay five million."

"eight million."

"ten million."

this time, the bidding was extremely violent.

some of the big shots in the private rooms couldn't hold back and competed for the bid.

in the blink of an eye, the price of the ancient sword had soared to 100 million.

at this point, the atmosphere had reached its peak.

as the bidding continued, the number of people bidding decreased.

when the price reached 150 million, there were only three people who were still bidding madly, as if they were going to fight to the end.

the three of them were in a private room, so no one could see them.

after seeing that there were not many bidders, long chen finally raised his sign. " "five hundred million."

wuah.

the scene instantly exploded.

500 million, how did this young man dare to bid 500 million?

"grandpa, what should we do? who the hell is that guy?"

in one of the private rooms, a young man's expression was ugly.

"don't panic. this ancient sword is no small matter. you can't give it up so easily."

,m "five hundred and ten million," the old man said loudly after taking a deep breath.

" private room no. 1 bid 5010 million. is there a higher price? "

the auctioneer shouted with all his might.

"six hundred and ten million." long chen raised his sign again, calm and collected.

money?

he really did not lack money.

to him, problems that could be solved with money were all small problems.

"six hundred and fifty million."

the person in the no. 1 private room raised the price again.

"one billion," long chen said, raising an eyebrow.

boom! boom!

with a bid of one billion, the scene was completely boiling.

no one had expected long chen to raise the bid like this.

the others were adding numbers casually, but the number he added was in the hundreds of millions.

"who is this person?"

" such a terrifying increase in the bid. this is the first time i've seen such a terrifying existence in my life. "

everyone was so shocked that they all looked at long chen.

long chen was calm and composed, as if bidding one billion was nothing out of the ordinary.

the people in private room no. 1 immediately stopped bidding and didn't dare to make another bid.

one billion was way beyond their budget.

"one billion going once, one billion going twice, any higher bids? one billion three ..."

"1.1 billion."

just as the auctioneer was about to say "one billion three times," a voice resounded through the entire venue.

the voice came from the third private room.

" heavens, 1.1 billion, 1.1 billion! i feel like my scalp is going numb. 1.1 billion, is there anyone else who wants to bid? "

the auctioneer's voice was a little hoarse, and his face was red with excitement.

long chen furrowed his brows. he didn't expect someone to raise the bid even after one billion.

"two billion," he said without hesitation.

".. ck ..."

" my god, this is f * cking an ancient sword for two billion? "

"is this how you play?"

" fierce, really fierce. it's too f * cking scary. "

"who is this?"

exclamations rose and fell one after another.

the no. 3 private room fell into silence, suppressed by long chen's domineering aura.

"two billion going once, two billion going twice, two billion going three times, sold."

" congratulations! " the auctioneer slammed the gavel down. " congratulations to the gentleman in number 18 for successfully winning the bid for the ancient sword. "

long chen glanced at the auctioneer and smiled. " "i've already seen the item. a kind reminder, it's best if nothing goes wrong. otherwise, your entire auction house will be in big trouble."
