In Panjiayuan, the first thing they did was trick Lao Hu into going tomb raiding.

Even so, it's a mountain of gold!

Even if it's just sitting there, it still holds a deep cultural significance!

The fat man said, "Brother Su, you're really amazing. Can I learn that Five Ghosts Moving Technique?"

What kind of bullshit Five Ghosts Moving Technique is that!

That's my system space!

These are things that cannot be told to outsiders, Su Mo muttered to himself, and said perfunctorily, "Are you a virgin?"

"what!"

The fat man shook his head awkwardly, looking very shy.

Su Mo's smile deepened, and he directly refused, "Only children can learn this!"

"Oh!"

The fat man sighed and stopped thinking about it.

"Brother Su..."

Just when Su Mo thought the matter was settled, Old Hu suddenly became excited, "Brother Su, I'm a novice, can I learn?"

Upon hearing this, everyone stared at Lao Hu in shock.

You're over thirty and still a virgin???

Even Zhang Yingzhen, who had always appeared indifferent to desires, stared at Lao Hu in shock.

Su Mo never expected that his joke would lead to such a secret.

Su Mo looked at Lao Hu with disbelief: "Really? You go to a brothel and the girl gives you a big red envelope?"

"..."

Just as Lao Hu was about to say something, he saw that everyone was looking at him with strange expressions, as if... as if they had seen an alien.

Big Gold Tooth said, "Hey, that's quite possible. Before he was twenty, Master Hu was still working in the countryside, and then he went straight into the army, where he served for ten years. After he came out, he joined us. He might really be a virgin!"

Old Hu glared at him and said, "What do you mean by 'after coming out'? Can't you speak properly?"

Big Gold Tooth chuckled obsequiously, "Yes, yes, then I'll retire from the army, haha!"

Old Hu ignored Big Gold Tooth and looked at Su Mo expectantly, asking, "Can I learn it?"

Su Mo immediately felt embarrassed.

Can I learn it?

Of course you can't learn that!

Su Mo rubbed his nose. "You can't learn it. I was just joking with Fatty. It requires some kind of medium, and ordinary people can't do it!"

Upon hearing this, Lao Hu, like the fat man, immediately felt disappointed.

Su Mo added, "While you can't learn the Five Ghosts Moving Technique, you can learn my Snow-Treading Without a Trace Lightness Skill..."

Old Hu was overjoyed. He knew that Su Mo was not only good at fighting, but also had unparalleled lightness skills. If he could learn some of his skills, he would definitely achieve great things in the future!

"In a few days, I'll teach you some light-body skills!"

Su Mo's gaze returned to the bottom, "The grand finale is here..."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their attention back to the auction.

now!

The final item has arrived on the field.

The burial goods of Prince Gu Mo, along with the antiques from various dynasties that Su Mo had previously swept up in Panjiayuan and Liulichang, totaling more than twenty pieces, were all auctioned off at high prices, with not a single piece failing to sell!

under!

The beautiful auctioneer began her introduction: "This is a pure emerald, the size of a fist, extremely rare in the world, and only in China. Even globally, such a gem is extremely rare."

"Moreover, this emerald is a gemstone with a history of over a thousand years, its origins dating back to the Qin and Han dynasties. It not only has great collection value, but also great significance!"

"VIPs with wives or partners, don't let this opportunity slip by!"

"The auction will now begin. The starting price is ten million, and each bid must be at least five hundred thousand!"

The wealthy people and collectors in the audience immediately became excited.

When it comes to antiques, the cultural aspects are too profound for many people to understand.

However, as long as you have money, you can never be without treasures like gold, jade, and gemstones!

Most of the visitors were antique dealers and wealthy Hong Kong businessmen; they were all worldly people.

However, most of them were seeing such a large and pure emerald for the first time.

Suddenly, everyone began to take the capabilities of Su's Auction House seriously.

The woman from the Yin family at the Crescent Hotel frowned. She knew that the wolf was coming, or rather, that a powerful dragon was crossing the river.

The Chinese antique market is about to undergo another transformation.

"Ten million!"

"Fifteen million!"

"Eighteen million!"

Initially, it was mostly photographers on the ground floor who were vying for the space. Later, as the price rose, some big shots on the second floor started to get involved.

Thirty million!

A wealthy businessman in a private room on the second floor held up a sign: "Thirty-one million!!"

Thirty-two million!

"Thirty-three million!"

After the first bid was made on the second floor, other wealthy businessmen on the second floor also joined the fray.

"Yo ho!"

The fat man was completely dumbfounded. "Wow, are all these people so rich? They just casually pull out tens of millions to buy things? That's so wasteful..."

Old Hu was also taken aback, quite surprised: "Are there so many rich people in our country?"

Big Gold Tooth looked like he'd seen a ghost. "Yeah, I've never seen so many rich people before, spending tens of millions like that..."

Zhang Yingchuan said, "Most of the bidders now are Hong Kong businessmen and tycoons. Speaking of Hong Kong businessmen, someone like Uncle Ming is probably not even considered a big shot in Hong Kong!"

Forty million!

Forty-one million!

Seeing the price still climbing, a Hong Kong tycoon cursed under his breath, then stood up and shouted, "Sixty million!"

The price skyrocketed from 40 million to 60 million, which deterred many people.

Even today, in the 1980s, 60 million was a huge sum of money for Hong Kong business tycoons.

The beautiful auctioneer, suppressing her excitement, calmly announced, "Sixty million once!"

"Sixty million twice!"

"Sixty million three times!"

"Oh!"

The hammer fell, and the dust settled.

"Congratulations to the VIP guest in VIP room number three on the second floor for successfully bidding on our Peerless Emerald!"

Chapter 143; The Sky-High Auction Part Two

Sixty million!

Listening to the commotion downstairs, the fat man muttered to himself, "I never even dreamed of having this much money..."

"Sixty million! That's enough for so many hot pot meals!"

Although everyone was speechless at the fat man's words, the bid of 60 million from the audience really shocked them.

Su Mo was quite pleased with the sky-high price of 60 million. "I've prepared three treasures as the grand finale this time. The emerald is just the first one. The next one shouldn't be less than this price!"

As he spoke, the waiter brought out the second, most important item.

The beautiful auctioneer carefully lifted the red cloth and introduced, "This is a jade ruyi (a type of scepter) presented by the King of Joseon to Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty..."

"This jade ruyi is carved from a piece of precious white jade, nearly half a meter long, with a white color tinged with green, and carved into the shape of a porous fungus..."

The top of the handle bears the inscription "Imperial Made" in large characters; the bottom inscription reads "Sun, Moon, Mountains and Rivers"!

"The auction begins now. The starting price is ten million, and each bid must be at least five hundred thousand!"

Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty!

King of Korea!

Doesn't this mean that this jade ruyi is not only a treasure in itself, but also has a more profound historical background?

This treasure could be passed down as a family heirloom!

Someone's mind raced, and they immediately offered: "Fifteen million!"

"Fifteen million five hundred thousand!"

"Sixteen million!"

None of the wealthy people here are fools. This was presented to Emperor Yongle by the King of Joseon. How could it be an ordinary object?

The fact that Su's Auction House was able to acquire such a treasure shows that the owner behind it is no ordinary person!

As everyone quickly made their bids, they also became more curious about the owner of the auction house.

"Fifty million!"

"Fifty-five million!"

"Fifty-eight million!"
