"Everyone, the starting price of each Blood of God is two hundred and fifty thousand Deity Coin, four of them is a million Deity Coin. Each time you increase the bid by one hundred thousand Deity Coin, start the auction now. "
"Four! One million!"
"One million one hundred thousand!"
"One million two hundred thousand!"
"One million three hundred thousand!"
"One million and five hundred thousand!"
"…"
"Three million!"
"…"
"Five million!"
"…"
"Eight million eight hundred thousand!"
"Alright, Eastern Fusion Sect's Qian Sect Master bids eight million and eight hundred thousand Deity Coin. Is there anyone else who wants to raise the price? Eight million and eight hundred thousand, once! Eight million eight hundred thousand, twice! Eight million eight hundred thousand, three times! Deal! Let us congratulate Sect Master Qian on obtaining four incomparably rare treasures — — Blood and Tears of God! "
Hearing the final price, Leng Jun almost vomited blood.
Because the moment the red cloth was lifted, Leng Jun had already recognized the four "Blood Tears of God".
It was the four rubies he had sold to the Sky Appreciation Pavilion.
At that time, he was still complacent that he wasn't deceived by the Fat Boss, but now, it seems that he was truly a complete blunder.
The price of the four gems he had sold for was not even one percent of this auction.
Leng Jun was indignant in his heart, he had already secretly made up his mind, he must find the Fat Boss at the Heaven Appreciation Pavilion and ask for an explanation.
After nightfall, the Sky City became less bustling and more quiet.
Aside from a few barks and a few guests who refused to return home, the entire Sky City was abnormally quiet.
Today was Sky City's monthly auction. Most shops in the city would close for a day, and the Pavilion of Heavenly Appreciation was no exception.
It was just that because Fat Boss had made a huge profit today, he was always excited.
Instead of resting early, he bought some food and wine and drank by himself in the shop.
Fat Boss was indeed an evil merchant, and he was also a stingy person.
However, his pettiness was not only to outsiders, but also to himself.
He viewed money as his life, afraid of being divided up.
As a result, he had never gotten married and had children when he was his age. Even he would not hire another worker to help with this shop.
In just a day's time, the Fat Boss had a net profit of several million Deity Coin.
However, as a reward, it was only a plate of beef, a plate of beans, and a pot of wine.
Although it was like that, it was still an extremely luxurious meal for Fat Boss.
Normally, he would only be eating plain porridge with salted beans. It was really hard to know how he had managed to make himself into a fatty.
Fat Boss was enjoying his sumptuous "feast" alone.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?"
Someone suddenly interrupted his meal, making Fat Boss a little unhappy.
However, due to the nature of a merchant (especially a cunning merchant), a smile naturally appeared on his face.
"He's here to buy something!"
When the Fat Boss heard that business was coming, he immediately became spirited.
Knocking on the door late at night was definitely an emergency. This way, he would be able to raise the price again and earn a huge sum.
Thinking about it, Fat Boss stood up happily to open the door.
Just as the shop door was opened a crack, a steel sword shining with a cold light extended in from outside the door, directly aiming for Fat Boss's neck.
Fat Boss was shocked. He immediately thought that someone had come to rob the store and knew that the money in the store had not been hidden properly. The items in the store were all real and those were fake.
Fat Boss slowly opened the door. When he saw Leng Jun's face, he was actually a lot more at ease, because he could roughly guess why Leng Jun had come.
"So it's you, young master. Why do you have a business to take care of the store?" If you want to come, then come. Why are you making fun of me? "
With that, Fat Boss extended a finger, wanting to move the iron sword that was pressing against his neck away.
Leng Jun said coldly with an expressionless face: "If that finger of yours doesn't want it anymore, you can try moving it."
When the Fat Boss heard him, he hurriedly lifted it up and left the metal sword. He said: "Don't move, don't move, Young Noble, what are you doing? If you have something to say, just say it, why are you using your blade and sword."
"Hmph. You dared to scam me. You should have expected this day to come."
"Young master, what are you saying? You're my god of wealth, how could I dare to cheat you?"
"God of Fortune? I think you are treating me as a big shot! Eight million gold coins, and you only gave me eighty thousand gold coins, it's pretty easy to earn that much! "
"Oh, so that's what the young master was talking about. Young Master, you misunderstand. Please take your sword away first. There's meat and wine over there.
Leng Jun did not want to take Fat Boss's life. He only wanted to scare him a little so that he could spit out the money.
Hearing Fat Boss's words, Leng Jun took the opportunity to descend a few steps and retract his iron sword: "Alright, I would actually like to hear how you're going to explain it to me."
As he spoke, he strode towards the table where the Fat Boss laid out the dishes and wine.
Leng Jun was not worried that the Fat Boss would run, because he believed that the Fat Boss would also not be able to run.
The Fat Boss himself wouldn't run, there were so many valuable things inside the shop, how could he be willing to run away on his own.
He mustered his courage and walked to the side of the table to sit down. Afterwards, he poured the wine cup in front of him into a full cup and handed it over to Leng Jun, saying, "Young Noble, try this wine first, it tastes pretty good."
Leng Jun did not hold back, he raised his head and drank the entire cup of wine.
He then grabbed a handful of beef mince and threw it into his mouth. While chewing, he said, "Alright, you can explain it to me now."
Fat Boss saw Leng Jun grab half the beef on the plate with his hand and felt his heart ache.
However, thinking of how his life was still in the other party's hands, he stopped thinking about the beef.
"Young master, you might not know about this, but the auction is not as simple as you think it is. Did you see your four gems sell for a sky-high price of eight million eight hundred thousand? Actually, it was all fake! "
Leng Jun grabbed another two pieces of beef and threw it into his mouth. Do you really think I'm a fool? At least a few thousand people will be participating in the auction, right? How could it be fake in front of everyone's eyes? "
"Gongzi, you misunderstood. I can't tell that you're not stupid, but you don't know how to do business."
The Runner sneaked a peek at Leng Jun's expression, and realized that Leng Jun did not seem to believe his words.
Thus, he coughed lightly and asked, "Young Master, when you entered the auction house, did you buy a ticket?"
Leng Jun did not buy a ticket, he only bribed the guards to get a ticket.
Of course, Leng Jun would not say something like that, he could only vaguely say "En".
Then he pretended to continue eating the meat.
However, the Fat Boss continued to ask: "Then, Young Noble, where is the seat ticket for the extra money you bought?"
