Card: I Rebuild Five Thousand Years of Chinese Civilization in Another World

Chapter 96 Auction House

Xie Yuwei never expected that Li Qiyu was actually a member of the Li family.

She took back the token and said, "Now that you've recognized the token, don't cause any more trouble for Sun Shize and his sister."

Li Xuyao ​​was still hesitating.

Seeing that the Lady Hou's token could not intimidate him, Xie Yuwei took out the token that Ming Zihui had given her.

Upon seeing Ming Zihui's token, a look of apprehension flashed in Li Xuyao's eyes.

"How did you come to have General Ming's token?"

Xie Yuwei put the token away and said, "It's none of your business where my token came from. If you cause trouble for Sun Shize and his sister again, I'll have the Marquis and General Ming deal with you."

Li Xuyao ​​gave Sun Shize a gloomy look and said to his men, "Let's go!"

It's not worth offending the Marquis's mansion and General Ming just to vent your anger.

After Li Xuyao ​​left, Sun Shize said gratefully to Xie Yuwei, "Thank you so much this time!"

After this incident, Li Xuyao ​​should not cause him any more trouble.

He and his sister are essentially "attached" to the three siblings, including Yuwei.

Xie Yuwei said to him, "You are always being harassed by them because of my identity."

Sun Shize and Sun Xiaoxiao smiled, not feeling that this matter had caused them too much trouble.

Without Li Xuyao's interference, the five continued shopping. When they arrived at the auction house, they saw many people queuing to enter.

"What kind of shop is that? There are so many people!" Xie Yufei asked curiously.

How magnificent!

Xie Yuchen also craned his neck to look around.

Sun Shize said longingly, "That's an auction house. Judging from the looks of it, there's an auction today."

"Sister, shall we go take a look too?" Xie Yuchen asked expectantly.

Seeing the expectant looks in her younger siblings' eyes, Xie Yuwei smiled and said, "If you want to see it, let's go see it!"

Xie Yufei jumped up and down a few times in delight.

The three siblings were about to head towards the auction house when Sun Shize stopped them: "Wait!"

The three looked at Sun Shize with puzzlement.

Sun Shize explained to them, "You need an invitation to enter the auction house, or you need to have your funds verified!"

"They're checking spirit coins, but we don't even have spirit cards. How are we supposed to get into the auction house?"

Xie Yuchen and Xie Yufei looked at Xie Yuwei together.

Xie Yuwei asked, "How much information do they need to verify?"

Sun Shize was merely the son of a county magistrate; he had never used spirit coins for transactions.

When Xie Yuwei asked him about it, he said to her, "I heard from my classmates that you need 100,000 spirit coins to enter this auction house."

One hundred thousand!
Thinking of the spirit coins on her spirit card, Xie Yuwei said to Xie Yuchen and Xie Yufei, "Let's go! I'll show you around."

Xie Yuchen and Xie Yufei were very happy.

Seeing their cheerful demeanor, Sun Shize assumed they didn't know how much 100,000 spirit coins were worth, so he quickly said:
"One hundred taels of silver is equivalent to one spirit coin, so one hundred thousand spirit coins is quite a lot!"

That's ten million taels of silver!

“Let’s go!” Xie Yuwei said to him firmly.

Sun Shize was surprised; she had spirit coins?

Sun Xiaoxiao whispered a reminder to him, "Brother, don't forget her other identity."

Sun Shize instantly realized, she was a Celestial Maiden Card Maker. A Celestial Maiden Card Maker wouldn't lack spirit coins?
Sun Shize chuckled, and the brother and sister followed Xie Yuwei toward the auction house.

As the five approached the auction house entrance, they were stopped by the guards: "Invitation!"

The people at the auction house didn't think that Xie Yuwei and her five children would have invitations. They assumed that since they wanted to enter the auction house, they were probably new students at Fengyun Academy who were unaware of the auction house's rules.

Auction houses are prestigious venues, and the guards there are all well-mannered. Even though they felt that Xie Yuwei and her group of five were not allowed to enter the auction house, they did not speak ill of them.

Xie Yuwei didn't have an invitation. She took out her spirit card and handed it to the guard at the gate, saying, "Verify credentials!"

The guard at the gate was surprised that Xie Yuwei had a spirit card. He took the spirit card and looked at it. When he saw the design of the spirit card, his hand trembled.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem with my spirit card?" Xie Yuwei asked.

This is the spirit card that Uncle Huang gave her. She has never seen what other people's spirit cards look like, so she doesn't know what the guard is so shocked about.

The guard did not verify Jie Yuwei's credentials. He respectfully returned Jie Yuwei's spirit card and said to her:

"This is the most prestigious spirit card in the Spirit Kingdom. There are no more than one hundred such spirit cards in the entire continent. By possessing such a spirit card, you are already qualified to enter the auction house."

Xie Yuwei was very surprised; she hadn't expected her spirit card to have such a background.

"Can we go in now?" Xie Yuwei asked.

The guard gave her a token and said, "This is the number for the superior cabin. Please take it."

Xie Yuwei took the bidding paddle and led her younger siblings and Sun Shize and his sister into the auction house.

When the five entered the auction house, everyone who saw them was surprised.

Where did this child come from? How could he get into the auction house without an adult's accompaniment?

There were many people from the five great families in the auction house. When they saw Xie Yuwei and her group of five, they said to the people around them, "Go and check their identities."

This auction house isn't so easy to get into.

The legitimate sons and daughters of the five great families were not qualified to enter the auction house without the accompaniment of their elders.

Although these five children are outstanding in appearance, it cannot hide their lack of worldly experience.

What identity did this person use to enter the auction?
After the five entered the auction house, a maid from the auction house came over and led them to their seats.

The maid paused for a moment when she saw the number plate in Xie Yuwei's hand.

The auction house maids were also rigorously trained, so even if she was surprised, she wouldn't lose her composure.

She respectfully said to Xie Yuwei, "Honored guest, please follow me."

Xie Yuwei had already realized that her spirit card must be different from others.

The auction house treated her as an honored guest, all because of the special nature of her spirit card.

From this cryptic information, we can infer that this auction house is likely related to Uncle Huang.

The maid was about to lead Xie Yuwei and her companions to a superior room on the third floor. Those who noticed this scene were all speculating about Xie Yuwei's identity.

Xie Yuwei and her group of five went up to the third floor, but before they reached their room, they encountered Tang Zhuer in the hallway.

Tang Zhuer was very surprised to see Xie Yuwei. She said sarcastically, "What are you doing here?"

Hearing this, the other people in the hallway asked Tang Zhuer curiously, "Do you know her?"

Tang Zhuer sneered, "Just a lowly woman who climbed up to General Ming."

The maid leading the way changed her expression. She didn't want to confront Tang Zhuer, but she had to defend Xie Yuwei, saying, "This young lady is a distinguished guest of our auction house. You must not humiliate her."

Tang Zhuer's expression changed when she saw the auction house maids defending Xie Yuwei and when Xie Yuwei reminded her of something.

"Who are you? How dare you speak to me like that?"
