Chapter 3: Robbing the hero of his chance!
Chapter 3 Robbing the male lead’s chance!
Zhao Yi didn’t even raise his eyelids when he heard the chatter around him.
“Ten thousand taels of gold? I’ll take that sword, this prince!”
This Golden Dragon Sword was Golden Fortune and was worth more than ten thousand taels of gold.
Zhao Yi definitely wouldn’t lose money by buying it back, but he wouldn’t be able to make much money either.
It had to be said that the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce did have something.
It was too hard to pick up the pieces in their hands!
Hiss!
After Zhao Yi’s words were finished, a sound of cool air being sucked in resounded around them.
That was ten thousand taels of gold!
Zhao Yi actually took it out without batting an eyelid.
Many people’s eyes turned red!
They only hated that they didn’t have a daughter like Su Shanshan!
Otherwise, if they were to get married to the stupid and rich Sixth Prince, they would be able to enjoy all the glory and wealth in their lives!
When the fat shopkeeper saw that Zhao Yi had really bought the Dragon Snake Sword, the smile on his face grew even wider.
He looked at Zhao Yi and asked curtly, “Your Highness the Sixth Prince, do you need the store to package this sword and send it to the Su Mansion for Miss Su Shallow?”
“No need!” Zhao Yi waved his hand, “Give me the sword directly!”
The fat shopkeeper didn’t doubt it, and hurriedly had the second in command wrap the sword and respectfully send it over to Zhao Yi.
Zhao Yi took the sword and weighed it, then casually flung it to Green Bee.
Green Bee caught the sword, and her face grew even colder.
Apparently she thought the same as the others, and also thought that Zhao Yi had bought the sword to give to Su Shanshan.
Zhao Yi felt amused to see her cold face and didn’t explain much, letting her misunderstand.
The first item of the auction was sold at a sky-high price of 10,000 taels of gold, and the atmosphere of the scene was immediately warmed up!
The fat shopkeeper took advantage of the situation and hurriedly launched a few more auction items.
The prices of those things quickly rose under the clamor of the crowd at the scene.
The Fat Boss looked towards Zhao Yi a few times, and seeing that he had no intention of making a bid, he couldn’t help but feel a pang of disappointment.
The big head of the auction was rich people of Zhao Yi’s level.
Just like the Golden Snake Sword before, a single bid could top the restaurant’s expenses for a year.
It’s just that this kind of rich person tends to have a high vision, so it’s not that easy to get him to pay for it!
The fat shopkeeper saw that Zhao Yi was bored and started to doze off, so he couldn’t help but feel a little helpless.
Although the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce was very powerful, it was also spread out over a wide area, and it wasn’t easy for him to come up with these things specifically for the auction in Wangjing City!
Suddenly, the fat shopkeeper’s mind moved.
He thought of an item in the warehouse.
If he took that item out, he might be able to fool Zhao Yi into paying for it!
The auction lasted for an hour, Zhao Yi looked at it and realized that it was all mostly blue and green Fortune Qi’s, and that these things were at most a dozen or so taels of gold to earn, which wasn’t much fun, and he hadn’t made any bids!
Zhao Yi frowned slightly.
In the original, the male lead was the one who got the strange encounter at the auction, so how come it’s not there anymore?
Zhao Yi pondered in his heart, “Could it be because I didn’t go to help Su Shanshan to relieve herself, creating a butterfly effect, the protagonist didn’t show up, and the chance that was originally supposed to show up happened by accident?”
If that was really the case, then the protagonist’s aura was too strong!
Zhao Yi shook his head and prepared to get up and leave.
Since there was no way to snatch the male lead’s chance, then he could only think of another way from other aspects!
Right at this moment, the fat shopkeeper suddenly spoke up.
“Next up is the treasure from the bottom of today’s auction!”
“This treasure was obtained by our Chamber of Commerce’s expedition team in the middle of the East Sea, and is extremely precious!”
“Don’t miss it!”
Hmm?
Hearing this, Zhao Yi sat back down again.
His gaze went to the high stage.
At some point, on the table in front of the fat shopkeeper, there was an additional purple-red sandalwood box.
When Zhao Yi gazed at it, he only saw a purple-golden halo overflowing from the cracks of the chest, which looked extremely eye-catching!
Purple Fortune!
Zhao Yi’s heart immediately set off huge waves.
This kind of purple qi Zhao Yi had only seen in the Emperor’s jade seal!
The item in this sandalwood chest was actually a treasure on the same level as the jade seal?
“It should be this thing!”
Zhao Yi was almost certain that the item in the chest was the male lead’s strange encounter!
In the original story, Zhao Yi received a message from Xiao Cui to go and help Su Shanshan relieve herself, but he didn’t expect to miss out on a supreme treasure!
A good thing inquired towards the fat shopkeeper, “Shopkeeper, what’s inside the box?”
Others responded in succession:
“That’s right, hurry up and open it for us to take a look!”
“Wasn’t the East Sea occupied by demonic beasts, and the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce was able to find treasures from there?”
“Boss, don’t keep us in suspense!”
The fat shopkeeper’s gaze kept falling on Zhao Yi, and when he saw that he also had an interested look on his face, he was relieved.
Keeping Zhao Yi as a mountain of treasure, but not being able to pull money out of his money bag, the fat shopkeeper was dying of anxiety just now!
Now it was good, he could make a big profit again soon!
Boss Zhao coughed lightly, a pair of fat hands rubbing on the sandalwood box, and said with a straight face: ”Our Four Seas Chamber of Commerce has always done business with trust and righteousness first! Therefore, regarding the situation of this last treasure, I must explain clearly to all of you!”
Hearing this, the crowd present immediately raised their interest.
The fat shopkeeper explained, “Inside the chest is an egg, exactly what kind of egg it is, our Chamber of Commerce did not find a corresponding text to identify it.”
“Our Chamber of Commerce tried various methods to try to hatch this egg out, but unfortunately, we didn’t get what we wanted in the end.”
“The Elder in charge of identification in the Chamber of Commerce speculated that this egg might be a dead egg of the Dragon Race, and that’s why it has never been able to hatch successfully.”
“Therefore, everyone, please also consider carefully during the auction later on!”
The moment these words came out, the crowd in the restaurant was in an uproar.
“Dead eggs are still brought out for auction, isn’t this a pitfall?”
“I said how the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce is so powerful that they were able to get the treasure from the East Sea Dragon Clan, it turns out to be a dead egg!”
“Although it’s a dead egg, but after all, it’s a product of the East Sea, if it’s used to refine medicine, there might be unexpected gains!”
“In addition to refining medicine, it should also be good for cooking food!”
“Hahaha, I’ll take this egg, old me hasn’t tasted the flavor of the dragons in the middle of the East Sea yet!”
The fat shopkeeper’s face revealed a smile when he saw the crowd’s high interest.
He announced, “This dead egg of the dragon race in the East Sea, the starting price is one hundred taels of gold, each time the shouting price is not less than ten taels of gold, the auction begins!”
The fat shopkeeper’s words fell, and the shouting of bids from all around immediately resounded.
“I bid two hundred taels of gold!”
“I bid two hundred and fifty taels!”
“Five hundred taels!”
“Hahaha, don’t even argue with me, I’ll offer one thousand taels of gold!”
After the price reached one thousand taels, there were fewer people shouting.
After all, this is just an egg, the origin is not clear whatsoever, it might even be a dead egg!
Spending a few hundred taels of gold to go back and play around is okay, but above a thousand taels is not worth it!
The fat shopkeeper had a smile on his face.
This dead egg was given to him by his superiors to be disposed of as garbage, but he didn’t expect it to be sold at a sky-high price of a thousand taels of gold, this is all money for nothing!
The fat shopkeeper looked towards Zhao Yi with an expectant face.
Zhao Yi hadn’t bid yet!
