After leaving the door, Fan Jin couldn't help but ask: "Master, why are you weaving a fishing net? Besides, the mesh is bigger than a person, can you still catch fish?"
Xu Jia's face was full of mystery: "Who said we were going to catch fish?"
Fan Jin was confused: "If you don't catch fish, how can you catch ghosts?"
Xu Jia blinked: "I guess you were right."
"Catch ghosts?"
Fan Jin laughed loudly: "I am a ghost soldier. I am the best at catching ghosts. Do I still need a fishing net?"
Xu Jia rolled his eyes disdainfully: "Get carried away, you are just a ghost soldier. Even if you can deal with ten water ghosts, what will you do if a hundred water ghosts surround you?"
"Then I can't deal with it."
Fan Jin was startled: "Besides, how can there be so many water ghosts?"
Xu Jia shook his head: "In the vast sea, there are as many water ghosts as there are hundreds of millions of them."
Fan Jin said: "Master is too worried. Even if there are water ghosts, they cannot form groups. Water ghosts also have their own territory and cannot invade each other, otherwise they will fight."
"I still don't know this basic principle? I need you to explain it."
Xu Jia said angrily: "Under normal circumstances, water ghosts do not interact with each other until death, but now it is different. If someone can control the water ghost, wouldn't it be dangerous?"
Fan Jin suddenly realized: "Master, what you mean is that someone wants to control the water ghost to do bad things?"
Xu Jia looked stern: "This is very possible. Wasn't the water ghost refined just now controlled by someone? What if this person controls many water ghosts to attack us, how can we resist it? So,
, this net must be woven just in case."
Fan Jin broke the pot and asked: "There is already a net on the ship, why does Ai Xuyi have to weave a net? She is a wealthy lady, can she weave a net? Why don't I go and help her weave a net?"
Xu Jia glared at Fan Jin: "Do you think you are Mercury? It's easy to eat carrots but not to worry..."
***
For the next few days, Xu Jia sat in the hall and paid attention to the stairs going downstairs.
From the moment he boarded the ship, Fumio Kawano and the bodyguard beside him were not seen coming downstairs. It was as if these two people had disappeared. However, Huang Guiqing often came down to play and cast provocative glances at Xu Jia from time to time.
The less these two people showed up, the more Xu Jia felt something was wrong.
Just when he was doubting, he saw someone saying something mysteriously to Huang Guiqing. Huang Guiqing glanced at Xu Jia and hurried away with the person.
Over there, Jin Li also pulled King Kong Shan away and ran upstairs.
"Is there something going on?"
Just when Xu Jia was having doubts, Wang Ruhai trotted over: "Xiao Xu, come upstairs with me. We might have a baby today, so hurry up."
"A baby is born?"
Xu Jia liked the baby the most and was so happy that he quickly followed Wang Ruhai to the third floor.
The third floor was overcrowded.
Many people have learned from inside news that a treasure will be released today, and a large number of people gathered here to see if they can take photos of anything good.
The auctioneer is a plump lady with an articulate voice and a pleasant smile, which fascinates many people.
Bring up the antiques one by one.
These antiques may be genuine or fake, and the age and condition of the antiques must be identified, as well as the manufacturing process of the antiques, who has used them, and whether they have any celebrity aura.
Anyway, the water is very deep.
There are many experts among these people, but Jingangshan, Huang Guiqing, Wang Ruhai and others are more knowledgeable.
During the auction, the three of them took action one after another and all found some treasures.
Although the treasures have different values, the three of them have never lost their hands or let their treasures fall into the hands of others.
There are a lot of rich people who take advantage of it and make a lot of fakes.
But who makes them short-sighted? They have no choice but to appoint.
In a flash, it was already evening. Everyone was very tired and their eyes were dazzled after staring at the antiques all day.
"This is the last antique to be auctioned today."
The auctioneer smiled sweetly and waved to the back. The two reception ladies carried the treasure and carefully placed it on the auction table.
The real body of the antique immediately appeared on the big screen.
They are actually the four treasures of the study: pen, ink, paper and inkstone!
But the strange thing is that this person's whole body was wrapped in boxes, with only a little bit of hair exposed.
The grindstone has dried up and turned into a paste, and only a corner of the inkstone is exposed.
The strangest piece of paper was only exposed a little, and was yellow in color. On the exposed corner, there were a few words scrawled with cockroaches crawling around, making it difficult to read.
As soon as the Four Treasures of the Study came up, everyone immediately lost interest.
"What is this? I'm still holding my pipa, half-covering my face, and can't see anything. How can I identify treasures?"
"This can't be a treasure. It's all a lie. It's one in ten and very rare. Furthermore, the paper in the past must have been moldy and had a strange smell. This paper doesn't have that kind of smell.
The strange smell is just yellowing, so it must be a fake."
"This dear friend is right. You see that the inkstone is very new. How could it be an antique?"
"Especially those few characters, which look like cockroaches. It looks like you can't even write ancient characters. Haha, the imitation of the Four Treasures of the Study is really bad."
…
Everyone couldn't help but ridicule and ridicule.
Because these days, they have also been defrauded of a lot of money and treated many fakes as treasures.
When I saw these four treasures of the study, I felt even more suspicious.
This is what treasure appraisal is like, and the antique shop and auctioneer on the Tainey are both from Singapore. They can't afford to go early if they are not profitable. They also want to make money. They deliberately mix the good and the good and put a lot of fakes. If you guess wrong, you will buy the fakes at a high price.
, which is also normal.
Everyone had long understood the fishery involved, so they concluded that it was a fake.
"It seems there are no treasures today, let's go dance."
"It's just that it seems like these Four Treasures of the Study can't be photographed."
…
Everyone dispersed in a hurry.
Wang Ruhai also sighed: "There is still nothing gained today, let's come back tomorrow. These four treasures of the study look weird, but they are not valuable."
Everyone was about to disperse without waiting for the auctioneer to bid.
Xu Jia suddenly asked the auctioneer: "How much does it cost to start bidding for the Four Treasures of the Study?"
Everyone thought that the Four Treasures of the Study would not be auctioned, but they did not expect that there were actually inquiries about the price.
Looking back, I saw it was Xu Jia.
Some people didn't know Xu Jia at all and couldn't help but ridicule: "Huh, there's another guy here who's a big guy. He's boring. Let's see what this guy wants to do."
"That's right, this little boy wants to pretend to be a wolf with a big tail."
"Watch the show, it's best if this kid can be tricked, so that there's a balance."
…
Everyone came back in droves and sat down.
The auctioneer held out a finger and said sweetly: "The starting bid is one million."
"What? The four treasures of this poor study cost one million? Are you crazy?"
"How dare you ask for a price for a fake? Is the Singapore auction house so black-hearted?"
"Only a fool would take pictures."
…
Everyone laughed and ridiculed again.
However, Xu Jia unexpectedly raised the sign and said loudly: "I will offer one million!"
