The stone-betting auction ended smoothly. The atmosphere was still rather lively, probably because Wen Xinya had opened a piece of top-grade Jade. Everyone's topic of discussion was almost all about the piece of top-grade Violet Jade, and they were less excited about the next auction.
In everyone's eyes, this piece of top-grade Violet Jade was already the most eye-catching and the best item in the auction today. On the contrary, the other treasures that were going to be auctioned next were left behind.
Si yiyan sipped his tea and calmly observed the situation. He said calmly, " "I bet Wei San is regretting it so much that his intestines have turned green."
In any auction, one would hope that the final price of the item was high. Only then would one be able to make a huge profit.Follow the latest novels at novelhall.com
Therefore, there were many illegal auctions that would use some prohibited items to stimulate the nerves of the auction participants to achieve their own goals.
However, the Lai Yi Pavilion was still a large family with an ancient heritage. It was natural that they would not resort to such underhanded means, which was why they had arranged for the stone gambling auction before the auction.
Z Country banned gambling, but it didn't prohibit stone gambling.
The rich and powerful in the upper-class society were very happy to gamble on stones. Anything that involved the word " gambling " would easily affect their mood and cause them to lose their sense of propriety. The stone gambling before the auction was to stimulate everyone's mood to spend a lot of money.
This method was legitimate and legal, and it could cater to his interests, so why not?
Wen Xinya asked curiously,"why do you say so?" Although I used 150 million to buy that spring material and obtained a Supreme-grade Violet Jade, the difference between the final price and the value of the item itself is too big. However, let's not talk about how much money the Royal Pavilion made when they got this spring material and auctioned it off. Stone gambling is a high risk to begin with, and since the Royal Pavilion has been doing this for a while, they wouldn't have any other thoughts, right?"
She didn't know how much Lai Yi Pavilion had spent to get this piece of spring material, but it definitely wouldn't be more than one million, because the starting auction price of this spring material was one million.
A piece of spring material that was not worth more than a million had been sold for 150 million in one go. Lai Yi Pavilion had also made a lot of money.
"Not because of that." Si yiyan shook his head.
Wen Xinya's curiosity was piqued, and she guessed that there must be some other inside story that she was unaware of at such a top-notch auction.
Si yiyan explained calmly, " the stone-betting auction before the auction is to liven up the atmosphere and bid for the stones. However, you're lucky. You managed to get a top-grade Jade that has not been seen in the stone-betting industry for many years. &Quot;
&Quot; even the items that are going to be auctioned next won't exceed this piece of top-grade Violet Jade. Therefore, everyone's attention has been shifted to this piece of top-grade Violet Jade. They're not very interested in the next auction, so I guess the next auction won't be very smooth. The final price of the auctioned items will be reduced by at least 20% to 30%. &Quot;
The cold voice revealed a trace of cold intent. It was as if a trace of coldness had instantly blown into his bones. It was a bone-chilling coldness that made Wei San, who was standing at the door and raising his hand to knock, stop his movements just like that. The expression on his face could not help but be a little bitter.
Standing beside him, the chief Steward, who was holding a mahogany tray with his brows lowered, couldn't help but raise his head and secretly glance at his master's face. He hurriedly lowered his head and hid the anger on his face.
Si yiyan's eyes were cold as he played with the Ruyao cup in his hand, a faint smile on his lips with a touch of deep amusement.
The next second, there was a knock on the door.
He wasn't surprised by Wei san's arrival at all. It was obvious that he already knew that Wei San was outside the private room.
Wen Xinya smiled and said in a sweet voice, " "Third brother Wei, the business is busy, why did you have to come personally?"
She deliberately emphasized the words 'third brother Wei'.
Although he had maintained his appearance well, he was definitely old enough to look like si yiyan's father, and he was smiling brightly.
Hitting someone while they were down had always been her favorite.
Si yiyan's brows furrowed, clearly displeased with Wen Xinya calling him " brother Wei San ". He looked at Wei San with a hint of hostility.
Third Wei's heart trembled when he was called third brother Wei. The smile that he had tried so hard to squeeze out was stuck on his lips. He carefully peeked at ninth master si from the corner of his eye and was stunned. &Quot; brother ... Sister-in-law, you're being too serious. 9th master is present ... I ... I can't be called Wei ... Wei ... &Quot; third brother! Before he could finish his sentence, he felt the gaze on him turn colder. He quickly swallowed the words in his throat and changed his words."I don't deserve to be called sister-in-law."
He shouldn't be making things difficult for him in front of 9th master!
Whoosh! He felt so wronged.
9th master, are you really not going to control your little wife?
Was it really a good idea to indulge her and then vent her anger on him?
