That afternoon, all the wealthy families in the city, the heads of various chambers of commerce, the bosses of gangs, and some celebrities received a beautiful invitation.

The invitation stated that Ziyue Xuan sincerely invites the rich and famous in Donghai City to participate in the treasure appreciation meeting held three days later. Only the one hundred most famous and distinguished people in the city are invited to participate, and other non-invited people are not allowed to participate.

This incident immediately caused a sensation in the whole city. Those who received the invitation naturally felt that they were very proud, and they rushed to inform their relatives and friends how much face they had.

And those who didn't receive the invitation were angry. I wasn't included in such a major event. This was wrong. It was totally unacceptable.

Many people came to Ziyuexuan and asked Shi Yongjian to give him an invitation.

Boss Shi invited everyone inside one by one, and said with a troubled expression, "The owner of this treasure from the capital doesn't want too many incompetent people to participate, so..."

Everyone was angry and yelled, "How many years have we known each other? How much business have we taken care of for you? Why don't you give me a single card?"

Boss Shi looked embarrassed and said forcefully: "For the sake of old friends, I only gave you my brother's invitation. Hey, I still don't know how to explain to my brother? Isn't this making things difficult for me?"

"How about, Boss Shi, I'll compensate your brother, I'll give you 100 taels! That's it."

Before Boss Shi could react, the man grabbed the invitation, put down the banknote and ran away.

Things like this kept happening, and one day later, the whole city was eagerly looking forward to the treasure appraisal meeting.

When everyone met, they talked about their qualifications to participate in the treasure appraisal meeting, which aroused the envy of the people next to them.

Those who didn't have an invitation hurried away to find the third uncle's second uncle's third uncle's sister-in-law. They must find an invitation.

When three days were up, Zi Yuexuan changed the auction to be held in the most prosperous central square in the city.

In view of the large number of people, City Lord Li sent the New City Guards to maintain public order and set up a cordon.

Those with invitations had seats inside the line, but those without invitations were separated by the city guards with weapons and could only watch from a distance outside the line.

The Lord of the City announced a rule on the spot. Those who dare to disrupt the venue and cause instability will be severely punished.

Even before it started, the auction venue was already overcrowded inside and outside.

Everyone discovered that the auction, which was supposed to be attended by only the 100 richest celebrities and wealthy people in the city, turned out to have thousands of people, not including ten times the number of people outside the venue.

Those who spent money to buy the invitations felt vaguely that they had been deceived. The profiteer Shi Yongjian was selling the invitations!

But thinking about being able to sit with the city lord and respectable people makes me feel good. Even though my heart hurts, the 100 taels seems to be worth it.

Those who spent hundreds of taels and begged several times before getting the invitation were extremely angry and kept cursing the profiteer Shi Yongjian in their hearts.

Ye Xing is one of the most angry people, because he wants to maintain law and order, and such a good opportunity to make money was taken away by the profiteer Shi Yongjian.

After being busy for so many days, this birdman finally took advantage.

Damn it, the ticket alone earned this profiteer a hundred thousand taels, and he also took 10% of the auction proceeds.

Ye Xing really couldn't swallow this breath, and thought fiercely, "I will definitely find an opportunity! Damn profiteer!"

Shi Yongjian walked up to the high platform proudly, straightened his clothes, and cleared his throat for a long time before using his internal energy.

He yelled hoarsely, "Hello to all the successful people in Donghai City! Thank you for coming. I have several unseen treasures here. Only talented and wealthy people like you can Only then are you qualified to appreciate it!”

"Now let me introduce the guests attending today. First of all, it is our City Lord. Thank you City Lord for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend this conference. It is the greatest support for our Ziyue Xuan... .”

….

Boss Shi introduced the famous people in the city one by one. Soon, everyone became impatient, and even City Lord Li frowned;

The people below the platform were also very dissatisfied, whispering, and the people outside the venue were even more noisy, "What the hell? It hasn't started yet! What nonsense are you talking about!"

But that annoying stone profiteer still spoke unhurriedly, with a face as thick as a city wall. He took other people's words as encouragement and became more and more energetic as he spoke.

In the end, Shi Yongjian closed his long-winded mouth amidst the shouting and shouting that the auction had begun, and there was silence inside and outside the venue.

A stunning beauty was holding a tray with an antique brocade box on it. The lid of the brocade box was open.

Standing next to the beauty was a big man with bulging temples on both sides. He looked like a master at first glance.

The stunning beauty walked with graceful dance steps and walked slowly through the venue holding a tray. Everyone took a deep breath, and there was no sound for a moment. They all stared at the fist-sized treasure in the brocade box.

The stunning beauty walked around the venue, returned to the high platform, and then raised the brocade box to face the sun;

The crystal ball emits a dazzling purple light, and beams of light spin out from the crystal ball.

Everyone inside and outside the venue suddenly shouted, "Okay!"

That intense gaze could instantly set the damp forest on fire outside the city.

Of course Shi Yongjian was one of them, but he finally did not forget his responsibilities and shouted loudly:

"This is called amethyst. It will emit a purple light when exposed to sunlight or internal energy! Please bid. The base price is 10,000 taels, and the increase is at least 1,000 taels."

Everyone was speechless, what, 10,000 taels? so cheap!

What inputs internal forces? Ah, can you also increase your internal strength?

Really? Then I want it!

A fat man suddenly stood up and shouted, "11,000 taels!"

Another one stood up and said, "Who are you? Want to buy such a treasure at a low price? If you don't have money, don't come! I want it, 20,000!"

"30,000!", "50,000!", "60,000", "70,000!",... "95,000!"

The price soon rose to 120,000, which was the price quoted by the elders of the elixir sect in the city.

City Lord Li glanced at it and said with a smile, "Elder Cen, I want this purple light that is said to have healing effects, too!"

Before City Lord Li could make a quotation, a handsome young man stood up in a hurry and shouted:

"I will pay you 150,000 taels, please give me some face!" He bowed and said to the crowd.

Someone shouted, "Why should I give you face? Who are you? 160,000!"

"That's right, who do you think you are? 180,000 taels!"

The young man's face suddenly changed from red to green, he raised his hand and then slowly put it down, raised it again and finally put it down, and finally fell silent.

Finally, this amethyst was bought by Ye Jihuan, an elder of the Baji Sect and one of the famous masters in Donghai City, for 210,000.

According to the last rumor, he bought it for the wife of the Baji Sect’s sect leader.

The treasure appraisal conference continues, and the red crystal is acquired by the elder of the elixir sect for 250,000 yuan;

Citrine was bought by a masked woman for 280,000 yuan.

The blue crystal was the most exaggerated, and was finally bought by an unknown person for 480,000 yuan.

The last one is a colorless crystal. I haven't received any quotation for a long time because it looks far less precious than the previous ones. It's crystalless and I can't tell why.

The beautiful girl holding the plate was also stunned. After walking around, the whole place was quiet, and no one quoted a price.

Shi Yongjian calmly picked up the crystal ball, input his internal energy, and a red light emerged!

Then, he shouted, "This is the real finale treasure. If you input different internal forces, you will find different lights. In fact, this is a more accurate and effective treasure than the spiritual rod. If the internal forces are stored in it, it is said that It can also work wonders.”

"This is what is said. I don't know what the miracle is!" Shi Yongjian immediately added.

There was still no sound inside or outside the auction house, and no one bid.

Shi Yongjian held the crystal and placed it in the sun. The crystal emitted seven-color light. Looking at the mysterious seven-color light, everyone understood that this was a real treasure.

The previous four pieces combined are not as good as this one. Therefore, many people are sure that this is the last chance and must be won!

As a result, there was an extremely fierce bidding competition, and the price also rose rapidly. In the end, this colorless crystal was bought off-site at a high price of 980,000 taels of silver.

This open-air auction in the square caused a great sensation and was the most exaggerated event in more than ten years.

Everyone was very satisfied, at least it opened their eyes. Who has seen such a rare treasure?

The excitement will last for several days as the whole city enjoys it.

The auction finally ended, and after a 10% tax, I still got 2 million silver.

The city guards received 5,000 taels of gratitude from Zi Yuexuan for maintaining the safety of the site.

After receiving the thank you fee, Ye Xing was extremely unhappy and was charged more than 200,000 taels of auction fees!

There was also a tithe on the transaction fee, and 400,000 in silver suddenly disappeared, and my heart was bleeding!

You know, 5 taels of silver is probably enough for a family's food expenses for a year, and 1,000 taels of silver can turn Yunhai Village upside down.

Ye Xing is not a person who loves money as much as his life, but he really lacks all five elements, but only lacks money.

In this world, everything can be lacking, but it is best not to be short of money.

Seeing the large amount of silver notes that City Master Li took over from Shi Yongjian of Zi Yuexuan.

Ye Xing finally felt happy. It was a business without capital, so let others take advantage of it.

Anyway, the real boss is myself, and others should sip some soup. At least I didn't think about these magical operations at the time.
