Hearing these words, Fang Yan couldn't help but be startled. Chu Qinghan's work efficiency was still very high.
"May I take a look at it?"
"The tripod is not in my hands. It was discovered by a drug exploration team in a cave deep in the mountains. They directly found Mr. Hou and hoped to auction it directly on the black market on Saturday night."
Fang Yan nodded: "Okay, I will go there on Saturday."
"Hey, how are you going to thank me?" Chu Qinghan's tone was still so charming and charming.
"If it's what I want, the price is up to you." Fang Yan said.
"Humph, sister doesn't care about your money, just give me a kiss!"
Fang Yan ignored it and hung up the phone directly.
In the next few days, Fang Miaoxue was approaching the exam and was reviewing intensively every day, while Fang Yan was practicing with peace of mind.
At the same time, he also asked Zhong Tian to purchase a batch of medicinal materials and prepare to refine a large number of Jingqi Pills.
After all, when my sister Fang's family is about to leave Tianzhou temporarily, they have to give these big guys some inventory to sell.
As for the income, Fang Yan is not worried. Zhong Tian and others will regularly transfer money into their own accounts, and each time it is just a lot more.
On Saturday night, Lu Nexuan happened to come to play at home. In order not to delay his sister's review, Fang Yan asked Lu Nexuan if she could stay with Miao Xue.
The girl naturally agreed happily, and Fang Yan set up the Four Elephant Formation in the courtyard before leaving with peace of mind and going to the Lingjiang Black Market.
At this time, Lingjiang Black Market was different from usual. Many stalls were removed from the huge trading hall and replaced by a high platform covered with red carpet.
On the high platform, there are three treasures placed on three iron frames.
Fang Yan's eyes immediately focused on the treasure in the middle, which was a copper tripod.
He didn't know much about antiques, but with a quick glance of his mind, he knew that this was definitely an unusual object.
The height of the tripod is about sixty centimeters, and the circle mouth is almost the same. Four chi dragons are carved in four directions and lying on the mouth of the tripod. The copper on the surface has a thick layer of patina. Although the color is dim, it has an obvious dullness.
Light-sensitive.
After visually inspecting the bronze cauldron, Fang Yan nodded. Although it was not a top-grade alchemy cauldron, if he could obtain it, there would be no problem in refining low-level elixirs at this stage.
"Mr. Fang, you're here. The auction hasn't started yet. Please go sit in the store."
Fang Yan turned his head and saw a chubby man less than 1.7 meters tall standing behind him. He was Dun'er, the boy from Pink Butterflies.
"That's fine."
Entering Pink Butterfly Square, Fang Yan immediately felt a sense of comfort.
There was gentle guzheng playing in the store, and the faint fragrance of tea filled your nostrils.
In front of the tea table, Chu Qinghan was wearing a white casual jacket with a white tube top underneath. His long, silky hair flowed down his shoulders and rested on his chest, looking calm and elegant.
"Here we go, the auction hasn't started yet, let's have a cup of tea first."
Fang Yan was slightly startled. Chu Qinghan today seemed different from the previous two meetings.
The aura of dust and dirt on her body has been swept away, and instead she looks like a young girl playing the piano in a scholarly family, with elegance and generosity in her every move.
He walked closer and sat down: "When will it start?"
Chu Qinghan smiled: "Seeing how anxious you are, is it so difficult to have a cup of tea in my shop?"
"Not really." As he said that, Fang Yan picked up the tea cup and took a sip. I have to say that the tea was rich but not overly fragrant, and very refreshing.
"How is it? Does it taste good?" Chu Qinghan asked expectantly.
Fang Yan nodded: "Yes, yes, you said on the phone that this cauldron was auctioned by the medicine exploration team? What is the medicine exploration team?"
"The medicine exploration team is composed of people who know a lot about plants and even Chinese medicinal materials. They will go into some wild mountains, rainforests, and even deserts to find rare plants or valuable medicinal materials, and then sell them on the market. Otherwise, you think I am a butterfly
Where does our medicine come from?”
Fang Yan took a breath when he heard this, and there is such a profession? He has never heard of it, whether in his previous life or in the world of cultivation.
"What's the price of that tripod?" Fang Yan asked.
"The low price seems to be two million. I don't know how much it can get, but if you like it, I'll take a photo of it!"
Chu Qinghan turned her little face sideways and stuck out her tongue, which made Fang Yan startled. This woman... is really ever-changing. She is usually mature and a little dusty, but now she is as cute as a little girl.
This person is not simple...
"No need, I will take the photo."
Fang Yan is not worried either. He believes that except for alchemists, no one needs the cauldron.
What's more, the low price is only two million, and those who want to collect it as antiques will only add a few million at most. They have enough money to buy it.
Chu Qinghan pouted in displeasure, but still poured him another cup of tea.
Dun'er on the side sighed, the head of the house...when has he ever been so hopeless?
The people who came before were all those customers who tried their best to please, some brought expensive gifts, some spent a lot of money in the store, and some showed off their knowledge in their fields, hoping to make Chu Qinghan think they were awesome.
But for Chu Qinghan to take the initiative to show his kindness... Fang Yan was really the first one.
Not long after, the auction started and the hall became lively.
For a time, almost all the guests gathered around the middle booth.
At this time, the Marquis stepped onto the high platform, smiled and waved to everyone.
"Okay, everyone, please be quiet. Our Lingjiang Black Market has been holding auctions from time to time. We hope you will come often and don't miss these treasures."
While the Marquis was speaking, Chu Qinghan had already walked into the crowd with Fang Yan.
When Chu Qinghan walked by, many guests greeted him. Of course, the way of greeting was very explicit.
After all, she is the most famous beauty in the black market of Lingjiang, and she is very coquettish. I don’t know how many people are thinking about going to Wushan with her...
Of course, even so, she has her own way of not offending these ill-intentioned customers, but also preventing herself from suffering a loss.
"Hey, isn't this Boss Chu? Why are you dressing up like a college student today? Is this a student show?"
"Beauty, you're here, do you want to stand over here with me? I'll put my arms around you and watch haha!"
Chu Qinghan winked and said, "Screw you, I'm not serious. If you want to eat tofu, go to my shop and spend tens of millions first."
"I hate it, you think I'm so cheap? If you dare to touch me, I'll ask you for five million!"
As he said that, Chu Qinghan turned sideways and avoided the buttery hand.
Soon, she took Fang Yan's hand and walked to a place under the booth, which was also the designated place for each auction held by Pink Butterfly.
Opposite is Hongyanju.
At this time, Ma Honghong had already moved a chair and sat opposite.
As soon as she saw Chu Qinghan, Ma Honghong's mung bean eyes immediately stood up. After all, they were the two most powerful stores, so competition was inevitable.
These two people have always been at odds with each other.
Chu Qinghan ignored Ma Honghong and looked at Fang Yan: "How is it? Is it more convenient here?"
Fang Yan nodded: "Not bad."
"Hey, how can you thank me?"
Fang Yan ignored it and continued to look at the high platform.
On the high platform, after the Marquis finished speaking in Mandarin, the auction began.
"Our first auction item today is this Chi Pattern Cauldron. It has been identified as authentic from the Yuan Dynasty. The base price is two million. Everyone can start bidding!"
"Five million!" Chu Qinghan shouted immediately.
Everyone couldn't help but take a breath. The starting price was two million, and now it's five million?
It seems that Fendiefang is going to order this Chi pattern tripod.
Fang Yan couldn't help but turn his head and look, Chu Qinghan stuck out his tongue: "Hey, you won't let me take the picture, but I have to take it for you!"
Fang Yan ignored it. If she insisted on taking pictures, just take them...
"Six million!"
At this time, Ma Honghong on the opposite side suddenly shouted.
"Hey, Hongyanju has raised its price. It seems they are going to compete with Fendiefang!"
"Haha, of course, the two stores are incompatible with each other. I guess Boss Ma is deliberately raising the price because he wants Pink Butterfly Shop!"
"Ah? Deliberately raising the price? If Chu Meiren doesn't want it, wouldn't she be embarrassed?"
"It's so embarrassing. I have a lot of money, so it would be even better if I cut off my beard."
Chu Qinghan stared at him: "Humph, this damn fat man must have done it on purpose. He insisted on snatching it from me!"
"Keep calling and I'll pay!" Fang Yan said.
"No, I'll do it myself!" She shouted, "Eight million!"
"Nine hundred!"
Ma Honghong refused to give in.
Suddenly, seeing the two most powerful stores bidding, the others stopped shouting and only listened to the two of them. Soon, the price reached fifteen million.
Fang Yan frowned slightly, this woman is really troublesome, causing herself to spend so much money.
At this moment, a voice came from behind.
"Master Fang, what a coincidence, you are here too."
