Chapter 485 Bai Muxue's Contest

"Why are you still here? Didn't you understand what I told you?"

Seeing that Ning Qingxuan had not left, Liu Yin frowned, her eyes revealing a hint of disdain and contempt.

He couldn't tolerate a small business owner standing in such an important venue, sitting with bigwigs from all walks of life, trying to build a network of relationships that he might never have access to in his entire life.

There was no enmity between him and Ning Qingxuan; he simply couldn't stand seeing such an opportunity, which might change his own destiny, being presented to someone else.

"I have verified the funds."

Ning Qingxuan continued to stare at Liu Yanzhi, calculating his action plan and how to leave safely. He didn't pay any attention to Liu Yin's impolite words and just gave a casual reply.

"Capital verification?"

Liu Yin immediately laughed, realizing that Ning Qingxuan had appeared at the venue as a buyer.

But what does verification of funds represent? It's just a mere entry ticket. A single bid could potentially overturn all of Ning Qingxuan's assets.

"You two, take him away."

Liu Yin waved her hand, and immediately some gang members from the corner came over, but before they could make a move, they were pinned down by two other tall men in suits.

"Brother Xia Li!"

A burst of laughter, accompanied by joy, reached their ears.

Ning Qingxuan's heart skipped a beat. He turned around and saw a familiar face.

"Bai Muxue?"

Memories of my childhood flooded back; whether it was the urban version or the fantasy version, this childhood companion always remained.

Unlike other marriage partners, she had a certain emotional foundation with Ning Qingxuan, and the relationship between the Bai and Xia families was very close.

Due to causal mapping, in the urban version, where no other marriage partners exist, Ning Qingxuan has only one marriage partner: Ning Qingxuan.

Upon seeing that his sister Xia Zhixuan had come looking for him, Ning Qingxuan quickly realized that it was his sister Xia Zhixuan who had betrayed him.

"Who is this person...?"

Based on her years of experience in judging people, Liu Yin could tell at a glance that this woman was no ordinary person and exuded an extraordinary aura.

It is not just built up with money, but also cultivated from childhood by some incomprehensible and unknowable cultural background and qualities.

Even the word "noble" seems insufficient to describe this woman.

Looking at the people around this woman, none of them seemed to be good people; their hands were stained with blood.

Liu Yin narrowed her eyes and did not continue to lash out. She silently stepped back, then found two more people and whispered, "Check the identities of these people."

At that moment, Bai Muxue had already arrived in front of Ning Qingxuan. She glanced at Liu Yin who was leaving, her eyes filled with undisguised hostility.

"Brother Xia Li, I've finally found you! Come home with me!"

She took Ning Qingxuan's hand, almost pleading.

"I still have some things to take care of."

Ning Qingxuan sighed slightly. Opportunities are fleeting, and he couldn't wait too long, since he couldn't know when the next world version update would be.

If a completely new version were to emerge, and Liu Yanzhi were to no longer exist, it would have a significant impact on his strategic plans.

Is it because of the Yanbei Sword?

Bai Muxue looked towards the center of the venue; the auction had already begun.

When I arrived at the Imperial Capital Building, I heard about the auction of dozens of rare antiques and the sudden appearance of the Yanbei Sword.

This imperial sword, which was already extremely famous thousands of years ago, is widely known even across the ocean.

"Ah."

Ning Qingxuan gave a perfunctory reply and was thinking about how to get rid of Bai Muxue when Bai Muxue smiled and said, "I'll buy them all and give them to you."

With a glance, the butler beside him raised his paddle. He didn't even hear the origin of the antique being auctioned, only that the price had risen to 1.2 billion.

then,

"1.2 billion and 1 yuan".

Butler Bai appeared to be elderly, but his voice was strong and clear, and his calm words resonated throughout the venue, instantly attracting the attention of many dignitaries.

Even Liu Yin, who had just left, couldn't help but stop and look back in surprise.

A price exceeding one billion is clearly beyond what Ning Qingxuan, a small business owner, can afford.

Clearly, the elegant young woman beside him, without any further investigation, must be a financial tycoon.

"Five billion."

Liu Yanzhi cast a look of great interest at him, and with a faint smile, made another bid.

The audience gasped in amazement. A single transaction worth hundreds of millions would require even the most powerful and wealthy to carefully consider whether the antique truly had collectible value.

But in Liu Yanzhi's eyes, 1.5 billion seemed to be just a number, which he casually uttered.

"Haha, Old Liu is so generous!"

The middle-aged man presiding over the auction suddenly had a gleam in his eyes.

"1.5 billion and 1 yuan".

Before Bai Muxue could speak, Butler Bai had already raised his paddle again and made his second bid.

Upon hearing this, the powerful and influential people in the room immediately became restless. Many top financial tycoons, sitting in the front row, couldn't help but turn around and look in the direction of Ning Qingxuan and Bai Muxue.

"Who are these people? I've never seen them before."

“I know almost all the collectors in the ancient Yan Kingdom who have this kind of purchasing power. Perhaps they come from abroad?”

……

Whispers immediately broke out. Liu Yanzhi still maintained a smile, but he was clearly no longer as composed as before.

Anyone present today who has a discerning eye knows that if he makes a bid, he is determined to acquire the antique.

Half of the final transaction price will be donated through the Chamber of Commerce. This is a routine business operation for the antique industry, a matter of fame and fortune. Others' bids are just token gestures.

After all, if he hadn't wanted to orchestrate it, there would never have been this auction. These antiques, including the Yanbei Sword, would have long been his private possessions.

This group of people kept lowering his price by one dollar, either because they didn't understand the rules or because they were there to cause trouble.

Liu Yanzhi was very curious. Didn't this little girl know who he was?
"1.8 billion".

Liu Yanzhi made his third bid, his tone already showing displeasure.

Although he doesn't care about the money, it would be unpleasant for anyone to suffer such a huge loss over an antique, requiring an additional five or six hundred million.

The host was so excited that he was trembling all over. He couldn't help but look at Butler Bai, who, as expected, still held up the sign without any change in expression.

"1.8 billion and 1 yuan".

wow——

This caused a huge uproar.

The powerful and wealthy looked at them with astonishment and incomprehension.

"Who is this person? Has he gone mad?"

"The antiques that Elder Liu has his eye on are being offered higher and higher prices by them. Are they really that stupid to have taken Elder Liu's previous words to heart?"

"1.8 billion... I'm really ignorant."

A barely perceptible glint of cold light flashed in Liu Yanzhi's eyes.
