Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World

The crowd became stunned when they saw the bidding price starting from ten million at once. Jia Hao sat there nonchalantly as the entire place became silent.

" No.21 has started the bid with a great amount of 10 million! Does anyone want to raise the bid?"

The auctioneer's expression brightened as he looked around him?"

" Anyone? The clock is ticking."

Su Yunqi's breathing became hard as she looked at Jia Hao. " Hao'er, ten million for them…"

" Shhh."

Jia Hao gently pressed his finger on her soft lips, silencing her gently.

" Aunt Su, I just realized I have never given you a proper gift. So, Let me use this chance, alright?"

Su Yunqi pouted cutely as she saw Jia Hao asserting dominance over her. However, she felt a strange warmth in her heart.

" Alright, The Empress's bracelet is sold! Congratulations to bidder no.22 to get it."

Not long after, Jia Hao got his hands on the bracelets. As Su Yunqi decided to pull out her card, Jia Hao stopped her.

" What are you doing, Aunt Su? This is my gift to you. So, It would be only appropriate if I buy it with my own money."

" Hao'er, It's ten million yuan!" Su Yunqi's eyes turned wide when she heard that.

" You want to pay ten million by yourself?"

" Hehe, What's the problem with it? You don't think I can earn that much?" Jia Hao raised his brows.

" I didn't mean that." Su Yunqi hurriedly shook her head. " But, still...Even if you have money, why don't you save it?"

*DING!*

The moment Su Yunqi finished speaking, Jia Hao casually swiped his card, making the machine go green. With a smile, he took the bracelets and presented to Su Yunqi.

" Yo-You!!"

Feeling speechless, Su Yunqi merely sighed, unable to say anything else.

" Fine, since you have bought them for me, why don't you put them on my arm also?"

" Hoho, At your service, My Empress."

Jia Hao grinned as he held Su Yunqi's arms and slowly put on the bracelets on them. Su Yunqi could feel Jia Hao's gentleness as the cold surface of gold clamped on her wrists.

The nine different gems flashed with a dim light, making them look mesmerizing. Su Yunqi couldn't help but feel a strange allure from them.

" They…They look so pretty."

" They suit you, yes?" Jia Hao chuckled. " Don't you think my sense of fashion is great, Aunt Su?"

" Oh? I thought you wanted to call me Mom from now?" Su Yunqi puckered her lips.

" I can?" Jia Hao raised his brows as a smile spread on her face. " Hmm, I can but…Should I? Mom?"

Raising her brows, Su Yunqi could see the mischievous glint on Jia Hao's face, making her blush. Flicking her finger on his forehead, she berated Jia Hao.

" What are you thinking, Hm? Again some naughty things?"

" What can I do, Mom? I can't help myself when I see you~"

Su Yunqi rubbed her face as she could feel the blushing creeping across her body.

Jia Hao decided to not tease her anymore as his focus went back to the auction.

" Ladies and Gentlemen, This is one of our final two items. Behold! A painting of Tang Buyu!"

As the cloth was lifted, an ancient painting appeared before everyone.

It depicted a woman sitting on a river bank, enjoying the falling leaves of a tree. From far, a man was standing, looking at the woman and using her as a reference for the painting.

" Verified by our appraisers, this is Tang Buyu's authentic artwork. Its name is 'The Lady of the Riverside Village'."

" A remarkable painting, and only a few remaining paintings of Tang Buyu."

" The bidding price starts from 3 million Yuan!"

" 5 million!"

" 6 million!"

" 20 Million!"

Jia Hao simply raised the bid calmly, making the crows stunned once again.

" 25 Million!"

" 50 Million!"

Su Yunqi almost jumped out of her seat when she heard Jia Hao's bid reaching 50 million yuan at once.

" Hao-Hao'er! What are you doing?" Su Yunqi asked in a suppressed voice.

" Fifty million? Just for a painting?"

" That painting is pretty unique, Mom." Jia Hao grinned. " Besides, I have too much money in my bank account."

" Yo-You…"

Su Yunqi was speechless when she heard Jia Hao's words. However, she knew Jia Hao wasn't an irresponsible child. So, She didn't say anything.

Jia Hao's eyes gleamed as he looked at the painting.

[ The Lady of Riverside Village: A painting made by Tang Boyu, a famous artist of ancient dynasty. This picture is blessed by his artistic skill]

[ Ding! Source of otherworldly knowledge detected]

' This painting is supposed to come late in the Urban Fantasy Game. Maybe it was that Bloody Murder Route?'

' Possessing it, the player can get the painting profession directly. Hehe, To think I will find it here.'

Jia Hao rubbed his palms as he looked at the painting. Since he raised the bid to fifty million, no one dared to raise the bid further.

" Alright! This painting goes to bidder no.22! Congrats!"

The auctioneer slammed the hammer, showing the painting was sold. Not long after, Jia Hao got his hands on the painting.

" So ancient, but the painting is preserved well." Su Yunqi gave her opinion.

" What do you think, Mom? Why not use this as advertising?" Jia Hao chuckled.

" See this lady? You can craft some fine jade jewelry on this theme. I believe the market would appreciate it."

" Theme of the lady of the riverside village?" Su Yunqi's mind spun as she rubbed her chin.

" Interesting, luxury depicting simplicity. It would work well."

As expected, you find opportunity everywhere, Hm?" Su Yunqi couldn't help but pinch Jia Hao's cheek.

" Everything for you, Mother."

" Our final item! A fine piece of modern contemporary art!"

It was a black canvas, with some toilet paper dangling from it. Some toilet paper hanging outside of the canvas, looking ripped.

Everyone was stunned when they saw it.

" This is called The Sorrow, made by a modern artist. As you can see, one can feel the raging emotion it contains within its fragile frames."

" Oh my goodness! Such a piece of art."

" Truly, Befitting of the name."

" Interesting, I never thought I would see this here."

Jia Hao looked at Su Yunqi with a baffled expression. ' Mom, care to tell me what's so good about this?"

" Oh? I don't know?"

Su Yunqi shrugged. " But you gotta show some interest in it, right?"

" I don't know if I show some interest in such a money laundering scheme." Jia Hao curled his lips.

After a heavy inquiry, and using his Sage's Divine Eyes to the fullest, Jia Hao finally understood the story behind the piece of shi…Art.

The black canvas showed the bleakness of the world, and the white toilet paper showed the threads of hope.

As for the ripped part of the toilet paper dangling outside of the canvas, showed the unfortunates of the world who can't even afford toilet paper.

Such a believable and artistic abstract art. It can easily move only rich and sophisticated people to tears/

' Guess the artist doesn't know about bidets or hand wipes.' Jia Hao mumbled inwardly.

" 10 Million!"

" 30 Million!"

" 60 Million!"

" 100 Million!"

' Here goes the money laundering scheme…Perfectly white and legal.' Jia Hao sighed.
