However, during the next two days, Ye Chen did not report to Chen Yun. Although Chen Ruoyun wanted to know what Ye Chen was doing, she did not take the initiative to look for him due to her modesty.

Since it was an auction in the afternoon, she didn't believe that Ye Chen wouldn't bring her along.

Sure enough, at noon, Ye Chen reported on time. Chen Ruo Yun originally wanted to accompany him, in case he stirred up trouble again, so she pretended to reject him and agreed with a "difficult" expression.

This auction was not very formal. Although Yun Tao said it was a first-tier city, there were rarely any special auctions. People were more used to doing business in private, but the controversial items would still appear on the stage. This way, the final result wouldn't be too unpleasant.

Other than the house that Ye Chen had set his eyes on, there were also some other items being auctioned off. There were a total of six items that could be displayed, and as long as one had enough status or was invited, they were allowed to participate.

Ye Chen was invited over by Nie Great Wall, although with his identity, it would be easy for him to participate.

He and Chen Ruoyun had walked over in time. Basically, everyone had already sat down. There was not a single person who wasn't wearing a suit and leather shoes. Only Ye Chen was wearing a sportswear.

Chen Ruoyun was wearing a light gray suit, which was the same color as Ye Chen's sports uniform. Although the style was different, standing together, they gave off a strange kind of harmony.

Initially, Chen Ruoyun had thought that these merchants with lofty eyes would look down on Ye Chen when they saw him. However, they were all very well-behaved. Some of them even nodded slightly towards Ye Chen, which was somewhat out of her expectations.

At this moment, the host's words interrupted Chen Ruoyun's thoughts. She hurriedly pulled Ye Chen down and sat him down.

"Welcome, esteemed guests, to this auction, the next six items will be displayed one by one. The highest bidder will receive one hammer as the price is set. I hope everyone will follow the order of this auction …"

After a thousand simple introductions, the first item was brought out. It was a painting that had just been unearthed. It was said that it was the work of an ancient tomb robber, and he almost lost his life because of it.

"The starting price is five million, every increment is one hundred thousand..."

Immediately, people started bidding. The host continued to stir up the atmosphere, while Ye Chen just sat there bored. He had no interest in calligraphy or paintings at all. If Chen Ruoyun liked him, then he would be a little more active, but seeing Chen Ruoyun's lack of interest also showed on his face.

The goods at the back were all like this, seeing that others were fighting so fiercely, Ye Chen and Chen Ruoyun just sat there, as if they were here to watch a show. Nie Great Wall, who was hiding in the backstage, was staring at them intently, thinking that Ye Chen probably didn't take any money out because he was running towards the house.

However, he soon realized that he had guessed wrongly.

The fourth item was a ore that had been dug up by an adventurer. There was a chance that a gem would drop from the gem, but no one could be sure of its quality.

Ore like this was not worth much money in the market, and the person exploring the market might not be willing to part with it, so he sent it to the auction house. The starting price was pitifully low, only fifty thousand yuan.

The crowd began to discuss whether they would sell anything good or not. They were not lacking in money, but no one wanted to be called a fool. There was no one willing to make a bid.

At this moment, Ye Chen raised his board and increased the price by ten thousand.

Some people had already begun sneaking glances at Ye Chen. Recently, there was no one who didn't know of Ye Chen's business in Yun Tao. Since he was so optimistic about it, perhaps he could really sell something good? A few merchants started to bid, and soon the price rose to two hundred thousand.

"Are you sure what's inside?" Chen Ruoyun asked in a low voice.

Ye Chen shook his head, "No."

Although Chen Ruoyun had already guessed Ye Chen's answer, she was still stunned for a moment. "Aren't you going to leave the money for the company?"

"Let's take a gamble, what if it's something good?" Ye Chen said nonchalantly, "If it's just an ordinary stone, I'll just put it in the shop and make it a treasure."

Ye Chen really had no knowledge of this stone, he just had an eye for it.

When he raised the bid to 400,000, very few people wanted to raise it any further. After all, no one wanted to waste their money. The host had been staring at Ye Chen ever since he shouted 300,000.

The highest bidder was also a jeweller, but he was his shop and didn't sell at Hongda, so he didn't have much contact with Ye Chen. At the moment, that man was looking at Ye Chen proudly as if he was showing off his wealth.

"One million." Ye Chen raised the plate again.

This time, Ye Chen had attracted the attention of everyone. With an increase of six hundred thousand, Ye Chen was determined to win all of them?

"One million one hundred thousand." The man raised his card as if he was trying to compete with Ye Chen.

"Two million."

Everyone's eyes lit up when they saw Ye Chen, including the host. If the first price increase was due to Ye Chen's impulse, it would be a declaration of war. Such a bid increase would force a person to death! After all, it was just a rock.

"Two million six hundred thousand!" That businessman was also a bit angry. Why did Ye Chen add up so much, he could only add up to one hundred thousand? However, he was not confident enough. He was 30% confident that he could produce good stuff from this stone, but no matter how good it was, it would only produce items no more than 3 million, unless a miracle happened. Besides, there was a seventy percent chance that nothing would come out.

"4 million." Ye Chen raised the price again.

Some people thought Ye Chen was stupid. No matter how stupid they were, they would realize that this stone was not worth that much money. Could it be that Ye Chen couldn't see through it?

"Four million going once."

The merchant clenched his teeth. He was really unwilling, but he didn't want to pay any more money.

"Four million times."

Some people had already started to get excited, as if he was the one who paid the four million.

"4 million going thrice, is there anyone willing to raise the price?" The host had already revealed a satisfied expression. He was already very satisfied with the price of a broken rock. He had already noticed that the man who was bidding against Ye Chen had given up. Even if he was unwilling, there would be no one who would be against money.

"Deal!" This ore will belong to Mr. Ye Chen. Please go through the purchase formalities after the auction. "

Some were happy while others were sad. The ones who were least happy were those who came to watch the show, but Ye Chen did not give them the chance to do so.

"The next item is our final item. It is a company that can be used indefinitely once the bid is successful! Let me give you all the details of the company... "
