Urban Cultivation: Starting with Winning Back My Wife and Daughter

The two went back and forth, raising the price to nine million one hundred thousand.

The man in the Maitreya Buddha mask said, "Ten million. This is the last time I'll raise my paddle."

Without hesitation, Wang Xingyu replied, "Thank you for your kind offer. Ten million one hundred thousand."

The man in the Maitreya Buddha mask kept his word and put down the sign.

Wang Xingyu has confirmed that the man must have sensed the relic inside; otherwise, he wouldn't have raised the price to ten million.

I seem to have underestimated all the heroes in the world!

"Ten million, the first time."

"Ten million, the second time."

"Ten million, one hundred thousand, the third time."

"Congratulations to this gentleman for acquiring this golden Maitreya Buddha statue, which is two or three hundred years old."

A murmur of conversation came from behind.

"Spending over ten million on this thing? Is this guy out of his mind?!"

"The purity of gold in the past was not high, and judging from the appearance of the Maitreya Buddha, it was not made by a famous craftsman. This brother has lost a lot of money."

"Ten million can buy dozens of these golden Maitreya Buddha statues. This is a classic example of someone being foolish and having too much money."

......

Wang Xingyu wouldn't take these idiots' words to heart.

Having obtained a relic, this trip was not in vain.

Huang Qingyang said softly, "You've already bought the golden Maitreya Buddha. Now you can tell me why, right?"

Wang Xingyu smiled slightly and uttered two words: "I like it."

Huang Qingyang didn't believe him at all and said, "Fine, don't tell me then."

In fact, Wang Xingyu did want to tell him the reason.

However, there are many experts here with extremely sharp hearing, so they can hear you even if you speak very softly.

Of course, Wang Xingyu had many ways to prevent these people from hearing him, but he really didn't need to expose his strength.

The auctioneer hadn't expected the gold Maitreya Buddha to sell for such a high price of 10.1 million, which boosted his confidence and made his tone even more impassioned.

Seemingly influenced by his emotions, the competition among everyone became extremely fierce afterward.

Each item was sold for an exorbitant price far exceeding its intrinsic value.

Besides the golden Maitreya Buddha, Wang Xingyu was also quite interested in two strings of beads: one was a top-grade mutton fat jade bracelet, and the other was a Qinan agarwood bracelet.

The starting price for the former is eight million, which Wang Xingyu could compete for.

However, the latter's reserve price was 30 million, which Wang Xingyu couldn't afford even if he wanted to buy it.

The final result was that the mutton fat jade bracelet was bought for 16 million.

Because the price far exceeded the value of mutton fat jade, Wang Xingyu did not compete for it; he did not want to be a sucker.

Huang Qingyang bought the Qinan agarwood bracelet for a sky-high price of 67 million yuan, becoming a true sucker.

Wang Xingyu said, "You're really generous to spend 67 million on a string of beads."

Huang Qingyang said proudly, "Twenty-four white agarwood beads with a diameter of sixteen millimeters are extremely rare; you can't buy them even if you have money. As time goes by, these things will become more and more valuable."

Wang Xingyu glanced at him and said, "Good things depend on who wears them."

"You mean wearing it on my hand is a waste of something good?"

"You said that yourself, I didn't."

"Then what do you mean by not wasting things?"

"White Qinan agarwood needs to be nurtured to truly exert its effects of calming the mind, promoting sleep, and relieving pain."

"How to nurture it?"

"I'll tell you when we get back."

"it is good."

Huang Qingyang knew that Wang Xingyu was a master of his time and would certainly know how to maximize the efficacy of white agarwood.

Next, Huang Qingyang continued his efforts and bought three more antiques, including Tang Bohu's landscape painting.

As for the last three items, he symbolically called out a price once and then stopped.

Ultimately, the imperial green jewelry was sold for 630 million, and the buyer was none other than "Daji".

A flawed Jun porcelain jar was purchased by a man wearing a "rhinoceros" mask for a staggering 540 million yuan.

Huang Qingyang's assessment can be summed up in three words: "a great injustice."

To everyone's surprise, Zhang Daoling's "magic sword" became quite popular.

Those highly skilled sorcerers who had not yet placed a bid demonstrated their immense wealth, driving the price of the magic sword up to a staggering 890 million.

This shows that these guys must have made a lot of money on a regular basis.

I estimate that Wang Xingyu wouldn't even rank among them.

The guy who tried to steal the golden Maitreya Buddha didn't make a single bid, probably because he sensed the true nature of the magic sword.

After the three final items were photographed, Wang Xingyu thought it was over.

Unexpectedly, the auctioneer said, "There are actually five highlight items to be auctioned this time, but two of them are too special for the organizers to decide on. Just now, my earpiece received instructions to auction them."

Depend on!

That's really something!

Wang Xingyu scoffed at the organizer's claim that they had just made a decision.

This is a classic case of wanting to be a prostitute while also trying to maintain a virtuous image.

A staff member came up carrying a worn-out book.

"The fourth and final item is the Wudang Tai Chi Chuan manual, written in the handwriting of Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of Wudang Mountain."

These words caused an uproar at the scene.

Who is Zhang Sanfeng?

He was the founder of the Wudang school and a Taoist master comparable to Bodhidharma.

His self-written book, "Wudang Tai Chi Chuan," is undoubtedly a supreme treasure in the world of martial arts, Taoism, and antiques.

Wang Xingyu finally understood why so many martial arts practitioners came to participate in the auction.

The organizers must have leaked this information on purpose; otherwise, they would never have come.

"Damn it, I want to see it first!"

Wang Xingyu silently released his divine sense, covering the books on the table.

The auctioneer, completely unaware, continued his presentation.

"This book details all the steps of Tai Chi practice from beginner to advanced level, and also includes Zhang Sanfeng's understanding of Tai Chi, making it invaluable."

"We have many kung fu masters in our exhibition hall. We have made copies of two pages for everyone to appreciate."

Two moves from Wudang Tai Chi appeared on the big screen: Cloud Hands and Parry Strike, one soft and one hard.

Anyone can learn the moves; the key is the method of luck.

The organizers were incredibly malicious; they only showed the first half of the internal energy flow in these two fist techniques, omitting the second half.

Huang Qingyang asked, "Xiao Zhao, is this real or fake?"

Zhao Yuan said in a deep voice, "It's true."

Huang Qingyang said, "Then let's buy it."

Zhao Yuan remained silent, clearly tempted.

Zhang Sanfeng's cultivation level has most likely reached the Tongtian Realm, and the things he personally wrote are of great benefit even to innate masters.

"The starting bid for the Wudang Tai Chi Chuan manual is 80 million. Please place your bids."

"Eighty-five million."

"One hundred and twenty million."

"Two hundred million."

"Two hundred and thirty million."
