"Brother Qin, today is the day when the auction will be held. Come with me quickly."
Qin Xiaofei looked dumbfounded and was pulled directly into the car by Lao Wu.
This old Wu was probably too impatient.
After a while, Qin Xiaofei followed Lao Wu to a private manor.
When Qin Xiaofei and the others arrived, several very expensive cars were already parked at the entrance of the manor.
Moreover, the guards and inspections at the gate of the manor were much stricter than those at Wang Kun's last auction.
It seems that the people participating in this auction are indeed either rich or noble.
"Brother Qin, the people here are not easy to mess with. Let's try to keep a low profile."
Before entering, Lao Wu gave Qin Xiaofei some uneasy words.
"Well, I understand."
Qin Xiaofei nodded lightly.
Then he followed Lao Wu and walked in. Yuan Shi still followed Qin Xiaofei quietly, looking around vigilantly.
The security guard at the door carefully checked several people with instruments before letting them in.
After entering, Qin Xiaofei found that the auction inside had not started yet, and everyone was chatting casually.
And unlike the last auction, this one seemed less formal and there was no stage specifically used for the auction.
It was said to be an auction, but in fact it was more like a cocktail party. Everyone was walking around holding wine glasses, and the various foods and desserts on the table were basically untouched.
Although not many people came, they were all very important.
"Old Wu, can you introduce to me the background of these people?"
Qin Xiaofei looked at several dignitaries in the venue and asked Lao Wu.
"No problem, these people are all very wealthy people in the city, and the few over there are some leaders of local forces..."
Lao Wu didn't think much about it and agreed directly, and began to introduce the origins and backgrounds of these people to Qin Xiaofei one by one.
Qin Xiaofei discovered that these people all divided areas based on their status.
People with different identities will not stand together and chat.
At this moment, two people suddenly caught Qin Xiaofei's attention.
Their clothes were very strange. Qin Xiaofei had never seen this style of clothing.
The other is that the two of them stood almost outside everyone's range, looking a little out of place.
"Old Wu, those two people are..."
"Brother Qin, the people I introduced to you just now are basically rich, powerful or powerful, but these two people are different."
"These two are famous poison masters in Rui City. You must be careful not to provoke them."
"Otherwise, Lao Wu, I won't be able to save you."
Looking at the two weird people with cold faces, Old Wu seemed to be very scared.
Qin Xiaofei nodded and wrote down these two people.
"Look at those people, they are all experts here to help identify treasures, and they are all well-known experts in Ruicheng."
Old Wu pointed at the people following the big shots and introduced them.
It seems that this auction may really contain valuable treasures, otherwise it would not attract so many people to go to war.
"Haha, Lao Wu, you came so early today!"
At this time, several people noticed Old Wu who had just entered the door, and Qin Xiaofei who was brought behind him.
"The early bird catches the worm. If I had been late, today's Gu treasure would have been snatched away by you."
Lao Wu responded with a smile.
It seems that they all know each other.
"That's a good thing, but what's going on with the young man behind you, Old Wu? Isn't he the expert who brought you the palm eye?"
"It can't be true, Old Wu!"
Everyone suddenly became interested in Qin Xiaofei behind Lao Wu.
In fact, this is inevitable. Looking at it, none of the experts they brought are old academics with white beards and hair.
But it was only he, Old Wu, who brought a young man over.
"Haha, don't underestimate brother Qin I brought here, otherwise you will definitely suffer."
Lao Wu quite trusted Qin Xiaofei, after all, he had only seen it with his own eyes that day.
"Hahaha, this is hilarious. Old Wu, you must have lost your mind. You actually invited a young man from out of town whom you have never seen before!"
"That's right, that's right, Old Wu, you are getting more and more confused as you get older! What can a young man like this who doesn't even have full hair understand?"
"I'm afraid this young man doesn't even know much about you!"
"..."
Everyone began to ridicule Old Wu. Naturally, Old Wu alone could not speak to a few of them.
When Yuan Shi saw that these people dared to despise Qin Xiaofei so much, he immediately stepped forward angrily and wanted to say something.
However, Qin Xiaofei reached out and stopped him.
"Brother Yuan, remember to keep a low profile and let these people make noise. They will regret it."
Qin Xiaofei didn't bother to talk nonsense to these people.
"Everyone be quiet, the auction is about to begin!"
Just as Lao Wu was arguing with those people, a voice suddenly came from inside the venue.
Then everyone became quiet and looked toward the center of the venue.
I saw a very shrewd man with a mustache walking out pushing a container truck with a mysterious box on it.
Behind him was a tall, strange man wrapped in a robe.
"It finally begins."
Everyone looked expectant.
"Everyone has been waiting for a long time. First of all, I am very happy to come to this auction..."
"Stop talking nonsense and show your things quickly!"
When the mustached man was about to say a few words, he was interrupted by the anxious crowd.
"In that case, I won't stop talking nonsense. Please keep your eyes peeled!"
After that, he opened the box.
Qin Xiaofei also looked up and found a strange bead inside.
It's weird because the bead itself is transparent, but there is a colorful mist inside the bead that keeps churning.
"This is the legendary Five Poison Pearl. It took me more than ten years of hard work to create it. The starting price is five million!"
This mustached man also quoted the starting price without any politeness.
No one made an offer at first.
Everyone was whispering and discussing whether this thing was true or false.
Mr. Wu also looked at Qin Xiaofei with questioning eyes.
This bead looks brilliant, indeed like a treasure.
However, no one has ever seen the rumored Five Poison Pearls, and no one is sure whether it is true or false.
Qin Xiaofei looked hard at Lao Wu and shook his head slightly.
Old Wu suddenly understood.
In fact, everyone present didn't care about money at all. To them, this little money was just a drop in the bucket.
But everyone is afraid of buying fake things because it is a matter of face.
It would be very embarrassing if others knew that I had accidentally bought a fake product.
So for a while everyone hesitated and did not take action.
"This thing is almost exactly the same as what is recorded in the book. I will pay you six million!"
