Tomb Raider: The comprehension is against the sky, and the achievement is indestructible

Chapter 84: The Second Sky Lantern, the Fighting Lantern? Crazy!
"I now declare that the auction for these three herbs will begin!"

The auctioneer shouted loudly with some excitement.

Many people at the scene immediately began to ring bells. Everyone in the auction was given a golden bell. Shaking it meant bidding, and the price of each bid was 50,000!

The venue was suddenly filled with ringing bells.

However, the listening slaves standing everywhere at the scene had excellent hearing. Although the bells in the venue were chaotic, they could quickly identify who rang the bell first by hearing and accurately report the bid price.

The bidding price for these three medicinal herbs soared all the way, and soon it reached 50 million!
Huba, Fatty Wang and Big Gold Tooth were so nervous that they hardly dared to breathe. They stared at the auctioneer on the stage and sweat began to appear on their foreheads.

In just ten minutes, the bidding price had reached 50 million!
This is too arrogant!

Not far away, Fairy Huo, Zhang Qishan, Uncle Wu and others were looking at Su Mo silently with complicated expressions in their eyes.

In addition, there were many people looking at Su Mo.

Yin Nanfeng, who had been standing silently behind the curtain at the auction table, also walked out of the curtain at this time. Her beautiful eyes looked at Su Mo with interest, as if she was particularly curious about him.

Su Mo, however, still sat there leisurely, with a calm expression on his face.

Although the auction of the three medicinal herbs was somewhat beyond his expectations, fifty million was nothing. Besides, although the rule of the Crescent Hotel was that the person who lit the sky lantern had to pay the bill, it did not mean that others could arbitrarily raise prices. It also depended on the financial strength of the bidders. If the price called out was higher than one's own net worth, the bid would be considered invalid.

Sure enough, after the price reached 50 million, there were not many bidders left, and only an occasional bell would ring.

When many powerful bidders at the scene saw Su Mo light the sky lantern, their passion for bidding gradually faded and many of them stopped bidding.

Finally, the price of these three medicinal herbs was settled at 165 million!
"Congratulations to Mr. Su Mo for winning these three herbs at a price of 65 million!"

There was an uproar at the scene, and almost everyone turned their eyes to Su Mo, and many people couldn't help but stand up and applaud.

Sixty-three million, just for three herbs...

Too arrogant!

The vast majority of people present did not understand the value of these three herbs, and some couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh:

"Who is this Mr. Su, the son of a wealthy family? He is bidding 63 million for three medicinal herbs?"

"This deer grass and blue snake gall are indeed rare treasures. I have also heard of Qilinjie, but the medicinal effects of these herbs are unproven. The price of 63 million is too expensive!"

"For three unproven herbs, lighting a sky lantern at the Crescent Hotel, this Mr. Su is really arrogant!"

"He looks quite young, he's not some dandy boy, is he?"

"Don't talk nonsense. I saw that Huo Xiangu and the proprietress of the Crescent Hotel were very respectful to him. Huo Xiangu even gave up her private room to him!"

"So powerful? The identity of this Mr. Su is really mysterious!"

"Sixty-three million! This is a lot of money...tsk tsk!"

There was constant whispering in the audience and applause.

Su Mo smiled faintly, stood up, bowed slightly to everyone below, and then returned to his seat calmly.

This behavior is elegant, polite and generous.

When Yin Nanfeng, who was standing in front of the curtain, saw this, a hint of appreciation flashed in her beautiful eyes.

In the box over there, Uncle Wu suddenly sighed:

"Master Su is really arrogant. He has lit up the sky lantern with just three herbs. I'm afraid he will also be determined to get the Ghost Seal next!"

After hearing what his uncle said, Wu Tianzhen hesitated for a moment and said:
"Uncle San, are these three herbs and the Ghost Seal very rare?"

Uncle Wu smiled bitterly:
“There are many things you don’t know…”

The auctioneer's voice was a little hoarse with excitement. He waved his hand and asked the slave to take the brocade box containing the three herbs. Then he said loudly:
"The next item to be auctioned is also a rare treasure!"

Su Mo and Zhang Qiling's eyes suddenly lit up, and even Zhang Qishan and others quickly cast their eyes to the center of the auction table. "What we are going to auction now is a ghost button fish dragon seal. It comes from Baiyanping, Guwen County, southern Hunan, and was used by princes during the Warring States Period..."

Zhang Qiling's breathing became noticeably faster.

However, Su Mo did not look at the Ghost Seal held out by the slave on the stage, but instead cast his gaze towards the other people present.

Zhang Qishan and Huo Xiangu remained motionless, and Uncle Wu was still sitting on his chair, but a hint of nervousness could be seen on his expression.

In a box not far away, several people stood up.

Su Mo glanced at those people, suddenly stood up, and hung the small green lantern again in the upper left corner of the box.

The scene suddenly became chaotic!
"Another sky lantern has been lit!"

"Oh my God, he's crazy!"

"This fish dragon seal with a ghost button is just a seal from the Warring States Period, and he actually lit a sky lantern again!"

"Who is this Su?"

"Oh my god, it's the second sky lantern!"

In the box, the expressions of Huo Xiangu and Zhang Qishan seemed to change slightly, and their eyes were fixed on Su Mo.

When Uncle Wu saw Zhang Qiling next to Su Mo, he had already guessed that Su Mo was determined to get the Ghost Seal, so he was not that surprised, but his expression looked very solemn.

However, the expressions of those people who stood up in the distance looking at Su Mo seemed even colder and more solemn.

At this moment, Yin Nanfeng suddenly turned around and walked quickly to the outside of Su Mo's box. He stretched out his slender fingers and knocked on the door twice, then pushed it open and walked in:

"Mr. Su, you lit two sky lanterns in a row. Is this really necessary?"

Su Mo glanced at Yin Nanfeng and said with a smile:

"We are all adults, and I will naturally make rational judgments. Miss Yin does not need to worry about this."

Yin Nanfeng was silent for a few seconds and took a deep breath:

"However, as the owner of the Crescent Hotel, I still have to verify your assets to make sure you can afford these two sky lanterns!"

Su Mo smiled faintly and waved to Da Jin Ya.

Da Jin Ya then took out a check from his pocket and handed it to Yin Nanfeng:

"Ms. Yin, this is a promissory note from Huaxia Bank, the total is 150 million, and my master also has a property in Beijing, and many antiques under his name, all of which are guaranteed!"

Yin Nanfeng took the promissory note and looked at it carefully, then turned to look at Su Mo, with a complicated look in his eyes:
"Mr. Su, this auction is not just about antique transactions. I think... it's better for you not to get involved too much in some things!"

Su Mo glanced at Yin Nanfeng.

Her warning seemed to imply something that was inconvenient to say. Su Mo knew that the auction of the Ghost Seal was most likely led by Zhang Qishan, and the purpose of releasing the three herbs and the Ghost Seal was definitely to lure out someone.

However, Su Mo has his own ideas.

"Thank you, Miss Yin, but I have my own goals and ideas, so you don't need to worry about anything else..."

Before Su Mo finished speaking, he suddenly heard a commotion in the venue again, and everyone stood up at once.

But Zhang Qishan actually hung up a green lantern.

"Dou Lantern?"

"Crazy! Crazy!"
