When the white-bearded old man of the Ji Mansion announced the auction, Su Xia Yue looked around.

Amongst the twenty or so tables in the courtyard, many of them were people from the Seven Great Families s. Among them, many were looking at him with eyes that seemed to want to eat him up. There were also some unfamiliar faces. They were probably the local wealthy merchants as well as some people with mysterious identities and noble temperaments.

However, his gaze was slightly shy and not as bright as before.

Not long after she finished speaking, people began to call out their prices.

"I bid thirty-one thousand silver."

"Thirty three thousand taels of silver!"

"Thirty five thousand taels of silver!"

The price was getting higher and higher. Looking at the way they were bidding, Su Xia Yue realized that if her father were to come here, he really wouldn't dare to open his mouth. No wonder the butler at the door frowned when he heard that the person was from the Su Clan. Indeed, it was useless to let them in.

However …

Su Xia Yue was different!

Her thin lips slightly curled up as she revealed a calm expression, faintly saying, "Fifty thousand taels of silver."

"Hmm?"

"Hua!"

All sorts of surprised voices rose and fell in the courtyard. Many people turned to look at Su Xia Yue, not understanding why she suddenly raised the price so much. So much so that everyone was at a loss for words.

Everyone looked at each other. Most of them did not know Su Xia Yue's background. What a few people knew, was that Su Xia Yue did not have that much money either.

"I bid 51,000 silver!"

After the Ouyang manor's patriarch finished shouting the price, he smiled confidently and said in a rich and imposing manner, "This Ji Mansion has a peaceful environment, it would be great if you could open a medicine store for my Ouyang family!"

Su Xia Yue did not wait for him to finish speaking before continuing to bid.

"Ten taels of silver!"

"Hmm?"

"Hua!"

Another wave of surprised exclamations sounded out as a few families successively gave up on bidding. The Ouyang Family Head also had a dejected look on his face. Some of the other clans just stood on the sidelines with their arms crossed, watching the show.

At this moment, the butler of the Leng Clan shouted, "We offer one hundred and ten thousand taels of silver!"

Su Xia Yue turned his head to look at the voice and realized that General Leng was sitting right next to the butler of the Leng Clan.

The day before yesterday, after he was defeated by her, he went to the imperial court to perform, but was stopped by Nan Gong Ling Yun. While he was depressed, he coincidentally happened to be in the same auction house as himself. Naturally, he had to do his best to go against him.

Su Xia Yue understood this very well, but she would not let General Leng get what she wanted.

"Two hundred thousand silver."

Su Xia Yue said in a bland voice. His expression was as if he was saying that it would be as easy as buying a bunch of candied fruits with two copper coins.

So far, there were already many people cursing Su Xia Yue.

"This woman must be crazy! The manor that was clearly only thirty thousand silver was actually two hundred thousand silver! He was simply a madman! There's nothing to spend on anymore, right? "

"Hmph, how could someone from the Su Clan be so generous? Who knew if she even had that much silver! Maybe it's just a bluff, and it will force us to bid again soon. "

"That's true. Let's watch and see!" Hehehe, let's see how she will embarrass herself then! "

"…"

In the midst of all the discussions, a man's voice like bright jade suddenly rang out.

"I bid 300,000 silver."

As soon as the man's melodious voice rang out, it surpassed the shock of the others when he announced his sky-high price. Everyone turned to look at the source of the sound.

Su Xia Yue also turned to look, to see that it was the mysterious Young Master wearing a mask.

It looked like he was even richer and more generous than her.

Not knowing why, Su Xia Yue clearly still had the strength to continue bidding, but he didn't say anything and just sat down with a smile.

Just at this time, Chi Luo Sheng called out a price.

"400,000 silver!"

"Five hundred thousand taels of silver!" The young man whose voice sounded like it was made of nature continued to shout. He did not seem to know that he was bidding the third son of the Chi Family, the richest man in the capital.

Chi Luo Sheng looked at Su Xia Yue, and continued to shout: Six hundred thousand silver!

The young man did not hesitate as he continued, "Seven hundred thousand taels of silver."

Just as the two of them were bidding, the surrounding large clans would occasionally emit sounds of gasps. They really couldn't believe that someone was shouting such a huge sum of silver like it was a child's play! In just a short moment, the price of the two of them had already reached as high as one million silver taels.

Immediately, many people present were speechless.

One had to know that a million silver was equivalent to the entire year's expenses of the palace. Using it to buy just one Ji Mansion was simply too extravagant!

Chi Luo Sheng also started to wipe his sweat off lightly, he turned his head and looked at Su Xia Yue who was beside him, and started to ask in a low voice.

"Miss Su, why don't I choose a mansion for you? "This price can already be used to buy ten of these Ji Mansion. It's really not worth it!"

"I didn't ask you to buy it for me."

"Huh?"

After Su Xia Yue's words, the sweat on Chi Luo Sheng's face became even more concentrated.

He nodded disapprovingly.

"Oh!"

It was fortunate that he wasn't the one calling out one million silver taels. Otherwise, he would have been so enraged that he would have vomited blood.

white-bearded old man was also sweating because of his excitement.

The scene had just quieted down for a moment before he pointed at the mysterious young master and actively hammered down.

"It's that Young Master! One million silver!" The Ji Mansion is yours! Please send someone to deliver the silver! "

After this sentence, many people turned to look at this mysterious young master. Some people even revealed a look of schadenfreude.
