Chapter 35: Mysterious Man
The auction is tonight, so without further delay, Shen Chutang is thinking about how to find an excuse to sneak out without being discovered by Lu Beiqin.
After all, her current identity is just the eldest lady of the Shen family. If she rashly goes to the black market to auction items, she will definitely be suspected.
Unexpectedly, Lu Beiqin sent a message saying that his boss was coming back from a business trip tonight and he needed to be at the airport to pick him up, so he was not sure about his return.
Shen Chutang replied to the message, saying that he understood, and then went to the place mentioned on the phone.
This is a black market auction, and there is a mixed crowd here. Many things that cannot be auctioned on the open market can often be seen here.
It is precisely because of this that the auction here has a rule. Everyone who comes here will wear a black cloak and a mask to hide their identity.
Shen Chutang pulled down the black hood of his hat a little, revealing only a delicate and fair chin.
She randomly found a seat in a corner and waited silently for the auction to begin.
Shen Chutang was not interested in many of the items auctioned on the black market, and some were even fished out of ancient tombs. However, Shen Chutang had been playing with these antiques since he was a child and was not rare at all.
Finally, the hibiscus secret fruit was served.
The so-called hibiscus secret fruit is actually not a fruit, but a herb that grows in an extremely hot place under the right time and place. After it withered, it happened to be stained with resin, and finally petrified and turned into something similar to amber.
This herb itself is rare, and it must be dyed with resin. These conditions are very harsh, so it is generally difficult to find.
The starting price for this item was 300,000 yuan. Shen Chutang raised the sign in his hand without hesitation, "500,000 yuan."
"One million."
"One million and two hundred thousand."
"One and a half million!"
The price of the Hibiscus Secret Fruit has quickly gone up. For the rich, this thing may be just a decoration, but Shen Chutang wants to use it to save people, and he can't care about that much at this time, " Two million!”
"Three million."
Suddenly, a cold voice spoke up and directly shouted out a high price.
Shen Chutang instantly felt sorry for his wallet, "Three and a half million!"
"Five million."
In an instant, everyone present looked at the man behind them.
But the other party was also wearing a black cloak and a mask, so it was impossible to tell who the other party was.
After Shen Chutang came down from the mountain, she didn't have much money with her. After buying a villa in Xishan, she became poor. Now Lu Beiqin's income was less than 10,000 yuan a month, and her brother-in-law was still living in a hospital, so she had to save some money.
Sure enough, she became poor after getting married, and now she doesn't have that much cash on hand to squander.
"Five million once! Five million twice! Five million three times, deal!"
Seeing the hibiscus secret fruit being photographed away by the other party, Shen Chutang kept staring at the other party. After the man got the photographed thing, he got up and left directly. He seemed not interested in other things at all.
Shen Chutang hurriedly chased after him, lowering his voice deliberately, "Sir, how about I pay five million to buy your hibiscus secret fruit?"
But the man didn't even look at her and strode away.
Then don't blame her for turning against her!
Lu Yuebai is still waiting for the hibiscus secret fruit to save his life!
Shen Chutang stretched out his hand directly towards the Lotus Secret Fruit, making it clear that he wanted to snatch it, but the man was very fast and dodged it sideways.
Shen Chutang stepped forward again, with a smile in his voice, "Handsome, don't be so merciless. I really need this thing to save my life. If you're not in a hurry, you can wait."
The man's voice was still as cold as ice, "No."
The other person was also a man who had practiced and was very strong. He stretched out his hand and grabbed his shoulder and pushed it directly against the wall. "I won't be polite if you try again."
Shen Chutang raised her foot and struck towards his face. When the other party retreated, she raised her hand and threw another uppercut. The man ducked sideways and grabbed her shoulder again. Shen Chutang quickly broke away. As a result, The black robe was torn off.
