CH 12

Chapter 12 Are you hurting again?

Li Sang saw Zhuang Jinling behind Zheng Ke, her pupils shrunk slightly: "Zhuang Jinling? How could he be with Zheng Ke?" 

Haven't the bodyguard and the waiter drove their father and daughter out of the auction? Why are you back again? 

Bei Yin Cangmo raised his eyebrows: "Zhuang Jinling should have given the crystal block to Zheng Ke for auction." 

Li Sang's expression was very ugly, and she sneered: "It seems that Zheng Ke wants to fight me to the end, something I don't want. He just picked it up, he was hitting me Li Sang in the face." 

She coldly watched Zheng Ke politely invited Zhuang Jinling to sit in the first row, and asked the waiter to bring some snacks to the children.

Others also noticed Zhuang Jinling, and everyone speculated about his identity. 

Zheng Ke motioned to the auctioneer on the stage to start the auction. 

There were all kinds of items at the auction, ranging from ordinary antiques, to mutated animal, plants, meats and fruits that could heal the wounds and made body white and tender. 

Zhuang Jinling heard that a catty of meat of mutant animals and fruit plants sold for more than ten million, and he couldn't sit still. He raised his finger and poked Yaya's face: "How many of these things did we eat?." 

Yaya ate the jelly. Her cheeks were bulging, and she felt very pricked. She blinked her eyes and said, "A lot." 

"..." Zhuang Jinling had the final say, they had eaten no less than tens of billions of food in the past few years, if not for these foods, his body wouldn't be so smooth and white, without the slightest wound, he took a deep breath and asked: "Do you still have these foods there?" 

Yaya shook her head. 

In order to go to Hecheng early, they didn't hunt on the way. They ate the food stored in her space, and they had eaten all the food before entering Hecheng. 

"Oh—" Zhuang Jinling was holding his chest with a heartbroken expression. If they still had these foods and they could sell them, then they wouldn't have to worry about having money for at least a period of time. 

Yaya thinking he was ill again, anxiously said: "Dad, are you in pain again?"

"No, no." Zhuang Jinling quickly put his hands down: "Don't worry, I'm fine." 

When the penultimate item was being auctioned at the auction, the auctioneer came to the auction stand with a tray from the backstage, and then the red cloth on the tray was torn off, revealing the contents inside. 

Seeing three pure crystal blocks on the tray, Li Sang quickly clenched her fist, without even knowing that her nails was inserted into the palm of her hand. She stared at the crystal blocks on the stage with fire in her eyes, wishing to crush them all. 

The auctioneer in charge of explaining the items pointed at the pure crystal block and smiled: "Before the auction, I want to ask you what these are?" 

Everyone stared at the crystal block carefully, and then stared at each other. The voice discussed: "It looks like a crystal block." 

"Is it a crystal?" 

"It can't be a crystal. How can an auction take ordinary crystals for auction? Even if it's a crystal, it's impossible to use it as the finale." 

"That's right, but if it's not a crystal, what kind of gem is it?" 

"This should be the mystery of the auction ." 

Before the auction, there was news that there was something that everyone had never seen at the auction. Many people came for the mysterious items.

Someone asked the auctioneer: "You want to sell it, it will sap our appetite, and tell us what it is." 

The auctioneer smiled: "This is a crystal block, a first-grade crystal block dug out from the body of a mutant animal and plant. " 

Everyone was stunned. 

"crystal block?" 

"How can the crystal block be transparent?"

The auctioneer said again: "We have already identified that it's not a crystal block made of special materials, but a real crystal block. It's indeed a crystal block dug out from a mutant animal and plant. Everyone here knows that when the children still four years old, you have to absorb the energy of the crystal block to improve your internal strength. Most of the people here are also parents. It should be clear that when the children absorb the energy of the crystal block, the most worrying thing is that the childrens are young and don't know how to control themselves. In the process of absorbing energy, the impurities are also absorbed into the body, leading to mischief. But with this crystal block in my hand, you no longer have to worry about the problem of children absorbing the energy and causing death, because this pure crystal block contains no impurity. Although it's only the first grade, the energy effect absorb is like the second grade. You can boldly relax and let the children absorb it. In order to prevent the children from losing at the starting line, parents, what are you hesitating about? , The starting price is 80,000 yuan, and the bid price must not be less than 5,000 yuan each time."

The audience was in an uproar. 

It was the first time they heard about it, and it was the first time they saw crystal block without impurities. 

Some people questioned: "Really there are no impurities?"

The auctioneer laughed and said, "Because there are no impurities, the crystal blocks are transparent. I can use the reputation of our auction house as a guarantee. Also, when the auction ends, the auction will be successful. Someone can try it first before paying. If there is any impurities, immediately terminate the transaction." 

With his assurance, for the parents of the children's future, they hurriedly shouted: "85 thousand..." 

"Ninety thousand." 

"One hundred thousand..." 

Li Sang felt worse and worse when he heard the price of crystal block soared from 80 thousand to 180 thousand. 

She used to tell that she wouldn't let  people buy Zhuang Jinling’s things, but everyone didn’t know what Zhuang Jinling sold, nor did she know that the crystal block had been transferred to Zheng Ke’s auction house.

The bidding stopped after 200,000 yuan, and at this price it was almost possible to buy the worst grade third grade crystal block. 

Fortunately, there were not many crystal blocks in Zhuang Jinling's hands, and all the crystal blocks could be sold at most for more than 10 million yuan.

Li Sang breathed a sigh of relief and adjusted her mood. 

Those who didn't get the crystal block asked the auctioneer: "Is there only three pure crystal block?" 

The auctioneer smiled: "Of course there are more than three. There are still 227 crystal blocks waiting for auction in our backstage. We didn’t offer all of them for auction because our boss thought that everyone would have the opportunity to buy the crystal blocks and try them back to let more people know the benefits of pure crystal blocks.” 

Originally there were only 30 crystal blocks, but before the auction started, Zhuang Jinling sent again two hundred. 

The two hundred crystal blocks were not sold to Zheng Ke at a price of 35 thousand, but at 37 thousand, and Zhuang Jinling took the bulk. 

Zheng Ke readily agreed. 

"What? More than two hundred?" Li Sang cried out in a gloomy voice. Didn't Zhuang Jinling only have dozens of crystal blocks before? Why it became more than two hundred? Could it be that Zhuang Jinling told the people under her hand that only a few dozen crystals were a lie? 

Her voice was not very loud, but she was surrounded by martial arts practitioners and their hearing was sensitive. 

Zheng Ke, who was sitting in the front row, heard her voice and smiled back at her. 

Li Sang was so angry that he quickly put away the emotions on her face, but her inner anger was surging. 

Then someone asked: "Is there only first-grade pure crystal blocks?"

The auctioneer said: "Now there are only first-grade crystal blocks, but there will be more in the future." 

Everyone was excited. 

If there were more advanced crystal blocks in the future, they would no longer have to worry about getting confused or dying due to absorbing impurities. 

"If there are more advanced crystal blocks, I can buy them as much as possible." 

"Me too, even if it makes me bankrupt." 

"In the future, as long as this auction house holds auctions, I have to come over and check it out. Maybe I will pay it back later. There will be better auction items."

When Li Sang heard everyone talking, she became mad and used a lot of effort to restrain herself from not getting up and left on the spot. If Zhuang Jinling really had more advanced crystal blocks in the future, wouldn't she miss the opportunity to make big money in the trading market and lost the opportunity to perform in front of the old man? And she didn't let people buy Zhuang Jinling's crystal blocks before, which was considered offending Zhuang Jinling. If Zhuang Jinling had more advanced pure crystal blocks in the future, he would definitely not sell them to the Li family. 

The last item in the auction was a fourth-grade crystal block suitable for any attribute. Some martial artists had multiple attributes. They must absorb the energy stone of the full attribute crystal block to improve themselves. However, the full attribute crystal block was very rare. The price would be hundreds of times higher than other single-attribute ingots.

Zhuang Jinling thoughtfully looked at the crystal blocks on the auction stage. According to the development of the plot, the fourth-grade all-attribute ingot was auctioned by a man sent by the male protagonist at a price of 700 million. After that, the male protagonist relied on absorbing the fourth-level crystal block to rise to the fifth-level martial artist. 

Then, should he use the opportunity to change the word to make the male protagonist lost the fourth-level crystal block? 

However, even if it was changed, the male protagonist had other ways to improve his level, and it was not worth losing his last chance to change the word. 

Sure enough, the last fourth-level crystal block all-attribute was sold at a price of 700 million yuan. 

At the end of the auction, the customers who bought the goods first went to the backstage to trade, and then participated in the next cocktail party. At this time, everyone was talking about how good the pure crystal block. 

Li Sang felt irritable when she heard it, but it was not easy to leave immediately, so she could only chat with other guests, and then heard someone mention Zhuang Jinling. 

"The man who took the children? Why  Zheng Ke so polite to him? Don't you think he is a little bit familiar?" 

Li Sang heard this and saw the speaker was Wei Kuan, the young master of the Wei family. 

She remembered that the information from the investigation stated that Zhuang Jinling was Wei Kuan's little follower four years ago. He used to play tricks on Bei Yin Cangmo together. Later, because of Zhuang Jinling's disappearance, he was beaten up by Zhuang Jinling's parents. 

Li Sang's mouth twitched, and before Bei Yin Cangmo came back from the bathroom, she walked over to Wei Kuan and the others: "Master Wei, you really forget things, you don't even know your former good friends?"

When Wei Kuan saw that it was Li Sang, their eyes flashed with vigilance. Everyone knew that Li Sang had a good relationship with Bei Yin Cangmo, and the Li family had a higher status than any of them, so they didn't dare to offend. 

Wei Kuan asked: "Who do you say is our good friend?" 

Li Sang asked: "It's the person you mentioned just now, do you remember Zhuang Jinling?" 

"Zhuang Jinling?" Wei Kuan and his friends took a long time to remember who Zhuang Jinling was. 

Wei Kuan’s friend Lu Junlin said: "Zhuang Jinling? I remember, wasn't he our errand runner before? When did he become our friend?" 

Wei Kuan asked Li Sang, "Miss Li, what do you mean? Is the person with the child Zhuang Jinling?" 

Li Sang said, "Yes." 

Zou Hejiang, who was standing next to Lu Junlin, frowned, "Isn't Zhuang Jinling dead? When he went out of the city to hunt with us, he fell from the mountain." 

Zhuang Jinling's parents also troubled them because of this incident, and that period was really miserable. 

Li Sang said, "He didn't die, he is back now." 

Wei Kuan said angrily: "Damn, why didn't this bastard come back if he didn't die, so that we didn't get beaten by his parents and almost died in the hands of his parents."

Lu Junlin said with a solemn face: "My leg was interrupted by his parents, and it took a long time to recover." 

Zou Hejiang said in a low voice, "Since he is back, we should count his parents' account with him".

Li Sang had achieved what she wanted, and turned and left with a smile. 

Wei Kuan's eyes flashed fiercely, but when he thought of Zhuang Jinling's parents' methods, he had lingering fears. Zhuang Jinling's parents were fifth-level martial artists, and they were already a master in Hecheng where there were only seventh-level martial artists. He didn't want to get beaten again: "No, we can’t do it ourself, otherwise Zhuang Jinling's parents won't let us go." 

Zou Hejiang: "..." 

He was also a little afraid of Zhuang Jinling's parents.

Lu Junlin asked: "Then let him go like this?" 

Wei Kuan said, "Of course not." 

Zou Hejiang asked, "What are we going to do?" 

Wei Kuan swept across the reception, his eyes fell on Bei Yin's party. He curled his lips and smiled: "I have a way."
