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

Su Mo was proficient in the art of observing qi, and his golden eyes could see through life and death, so he naturally saw that Zhang Rishan was putting on a brave face.

With a strength of 150, only Zhang Rishan, who possesses the Zhang family bloodline, could withstand a few moves from Su Mo. Anyone else would have been killed by Su Mo with a single punch.

"Cough cough..."

Zhang Rishan was quite taken aback by Su Mo's retort, "You really have a way with words..."

"gone!"

Having his little trick exposed by Su Mo, Zhang Rishan simply stopped pretending. His face fell, turning pale and weak. "Just stay here and look around, don't cause me any more trouble..."

After saying that, Zhang Rishan turned around and left the private room.

Watching Zhang Rishan's retreating figure, Su Mo's smile vanished.

"Girl?"

"Ok?"

Su Mo said in a deep voice, "Do you know how old this person is?"

Yingzi thought for a moment and said, "Judging from her appearance, she looks to be about thirty years old?"

Su Mo shook his head and said, "He fought against the Japanese in Changsha back then!"

Yingzi gasped, "How is that possible... He's been in power for over 40 years, how... how can he look so young?"

Su Mo reached out and pulled Yingzi into his arms, saying softly, "I originally wanted to become the biggest antique dealer in China, a business tycoon, but seeing this person now, I have a new pursuit..."

Yingzi asked, puzzled, "What?"

Su Mo looked directly into Yingzi's eyes, "Little sister... perhaps immortality... is not impossible!"

Yingzi's mouth dropped open.

"Ring ring!"

Just then, a clear bell rang, and a woman in a cheongsam slowly walked onto the auction stage downstairs.

"Distinguished guests, welcome to the Crescent Moon Hotel..."

As the bell rang, more than a dozen windows in the private rooms on the second floor of the Crescent Hotel were opened.

Inside the luxurious private room, the lights were bright, and a small copper bell was placed in front of each person. The atmosphere was as solemn as an elders' council in a fantasy movie, and everyone was silent.

"The Crescent Hotel recently acquired several treasures, hence this auction..."

The female host wore a sincere smile, "As you all know, the auction rules are: the minimum bid is 5, with no upper limit. Please take note, there won't be a next time if you don't win..."

"The first item up for auction..."

"The West Tuo Blue Flower, according to legend, can prolong life by cultivating it and preserve youth by consuming it. Starting price: 500,000!"

Yingzi, nestled in Su Mo's arms, was stunned. "Five hundred thousand!"

"What is the Western Blue Flower?"

Yingzi looked at Su Mo.

Su Mo smiled and said, "These flowers came from the Western Regions in ancient times. They were once presented to the Han Emperor by the people of the Western Regions and are believed to have a certain effect on prolonging life..."

"The concubines in the harem like to use them to make tea, and after drinking it, Su Mo can slow down the aging process..."

"The emperor's women liked to use it..."

As she was speaking, Su Mo's voice suddenly stopped. This treasure might be useless to men, but to women, it was the most coveted treasure in the world.

"30 million!"

Soon, someone in a private room on the second floor pressed the alarm and tried to bid.

"Ding! 40 million!"

"Ding! 45 million!"

Su Mo looked at Yingzi and said, "Little sister, I'll take a picture of you so you can stay young forever!"

As he spoke, Su Mo patted the alarm bell on the table, "50!"

However, Su Mo's voice was quickly drowned out by the price quotes coming from outside.

"60 million!"

"65 million!"

Su Mo was astonished at how sought-after this item was, and immediately shouted, "150 million!"

"........."

The scene was completely silent, clearly startled by the sudden surge in price.

"Don't shout..."

Yingzi was shocked, her face falling, "Where would we get 150 million!"

Su Mo was amused by Yingzi's appearance. "Don't rush, little sister, don't rush!"

"Judging from the voice, he's a stranger. Where did this brat come from!"

"Whose kid is yelling like that? 150 million? Does he really have 150 million?"

"Zhang Rishan? Where is Zhang Rishan?"

The private room on the second floor was filled with mocking voices and doubts.

Before long, several uninvited guests entered Su Mo's private room.

Several black-clad security guards from the Crescent Hotel looked at him coldly. "Sir, you are a distinguished guest invited in by the chairman, but the Crescent Hotel has its own rules. If you keep charging exorbitant prices, we will have to ask you to leave..."

Su Mo remained unmoved. "Is this how your Crescent Moon Hotel treats its guests?"

The man in black remained expressionless. "Sir, do you have 150 million?"

Su Mo shrugged. "No!"

The faces of the men in black darkened immediately. If they weren't wary of Su Mo's skills, they would have already made their move.

"Sir, please leave the Crescent Hotel!"

The men in black trembled with anger: "If you keep causing trouble here, we'll call the police..."

The fact that the staff at the Crescent Moon Hotel were so angry that they called the police shows that they were at their wits' end with Su Mo.

"Don't rush..."

Su Mo took out an ancient jade from the Jingjue Ancient City from his system space. "Take this and let your manager take a look. This should be worth 500 million!"

The group put away the ancient jade with some skepticism. "If it's fake, we'll definitely call the police!"

As they spoke, the men in black took the ancient jade and walked out.

Yingzi breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Is that jade really worth 500 million?"

Su Mo nodded, "More or less!"

Anything that Su Mo could keep in the system space was priceless, and that ancient jade was a masterpiece among masterpieces; it was more than enough to exchange for a Xituo blue flower jade.

A short while later, the men in black returned. An elderly man who appeared to be in charge respectfully handed the jade to Su Mo, saying, "Respected guest..."

Su Mo raised her hand to interrupt him, "You can keep the jade. Just bring me the Xituo blue flower..."

"Good good..."

The old man nodded repeatedly, "Xituo Blue Flower, I'll have someone bring it to you in a bit. This ancient jade is quite valuable, and we'll settle the difference with you after the auction!"

"Ok!"

Su Mo waved his hand, unconcerned. "Let the people below continue. I want to see if there are any treasures down there..."

"Yes!"

The old man became even more respectful. "Excuse me..."

As he spoke, the old man turned and gave a wink to the men in black. They dared not be careless and slowly retreated.

"Congratulations to player number 14 for winning the first item! Now, please proceed with the next item!"

Before long, the Xituo blue flower was placed in front of Su Mo.

Yingzi's eyes widened. "This thing is worth 150 million?"

Su Mo said, "Try brewing this tea and see if it can keep you young forever..."

Yingzi pouted, "It's still too expensive..."

Yingzi had never even considered spending 1.5 million on tea.

Then, another treasure was displayed.

"Next up is our second item: three pieces of Qilin blood bronze, each with a history of 200 years. Starting price: 3 million!"

The Qilin Blood is immune to all poisons!

Su Mo stood up, a hint of something unusual on his face.

"Ding! 400 million!"

"Ding! 450 million!"

"Ding! 600 million!"

"Ding! 650 million!"

In just half a minute, the price of Qilin Blood surged to a staggering 650 million, a truly astronomical price!

"Someone come here..."

Su Mo stood up, went to the window, and, too lazy to even offer a price, said, "Light the sky lantern!"

"Whoosh!"

The entire Crescent Moon Hotel erupted in excitement. Following Zhang Dafoye, someone else at the Crescent Moon Hotel had lit a sky lantern.
