In Jiang Ping’s private room.
“yan’er and Liver, look, that man really looks like a fat pig!”
Wan’er pointed at the fat man who had bought the urn-gold hammer and giggled.
Yan’er and Liv’er couldn’t help but laugh when they heard what Wan’er said.
The image of a fat pig was too real.
“Wan’er, you must be polite. You can’t talk about others in this manner.” Jiang Ping put on a straight face and pretended to be angry.
Wan’er snorted and blurted out, “That’s what it is. Dad, look, is this big guy’s belly exactly the same as those big fat pigs in Xiaoyu Town?”
“How dare you talk back?!” Jiang Ping was really angry, and his voice suddenly turned cold, “Even if he has a big belly, you can’t say that he looks like a big fat pig, If he hears you, he might beat you directly!”
“But he can’t hear me!”
“You can’t say that even if he can’t hear you. If someone says you are like morning glory, will you be angry?” Jiang Ping didn’t scold her but quoted an example.
He knew that Wan’er liked all kinds of flowers, but she just didn’t like morning glory.
As expected, Wan’er nodded without hesitation and said, “I hate morning glory the most. Whoever says I am like morning glory, I will definitely be angry!”
“So, Wan’er, remember. You must never talk about anyone or anything in this way again.”
“You must remember…”
Jiang Ping began his daily work of educating his daughter again.
Unlike others, they did not focus their attention on the auction.
Wan’er and her siblings were actually very curious about the auction, so they insisted on coming in to take a look.
However, after coming in, the environment here and the guys sitting in the lobby on the first floor attracted their attention more than the items on the auction stage.
As for Jiang Ping, these things didn’t arouse his interest at all.
It was just an inferior spiritual treasure. Perhaps it was quite rare for the people on the first floor, but to him, it was completely useless!
He had so many superior and even pure spiritual treasures in his storage space. Why bother with an inferior spiritual treasure?
Moreover, through his perception, he found that there was a slight flaw in the urn gold hammer.
This flaw was very small, even negligible. But at the critical moment, it might even cause this spiritual treasure to turn into a piece of scrap metal.
Obviously, the forger’s standard was not high enough, which was why he was unable to notice this tiny flaw.
This caused Jiang Ping to look down on this spiritual treasure even more.
However, that fat man had nothing to do with him, so why would Jiang Ping need to remind him?
‘The process of the auction progressed very quickly.
Other than the first item, which was that inferior spiritual treasure, most of the items were unable to arouse the enthusiasm of the crowd.
Fei Cai naturally realized this point. She secretly sighed and suddenly raised her voice.
“Everyone, the next item is a little mysterious.”
“If there are people who like to spend a lot of money to see it, they might as well take this item. Who knows, it might be a windfall!”
Hearing the word “windfall”, everyone instantly became lively again.
Fei Cai was quite capable, her short sentence had piqued everyone’s interest again.
Feeling the change in the atmosphere, Fei Cai secretly laughed and said, “Next is the ninth item in this auction!”
‘As soon as she finished speaking, Fei Cai lifted the red cloth covering a plate in front of her at the same time.
Inan instant, a crystal clear stone amber appeared in front of everyone’s eyes.
As an important weapon forging resource in this world, many people had some understanding of the stone amber.
However, even though ordinary stone amber was transparent, its interior was exceptionally turbid. It looked as if the stone amber was dirty.
However, the stone amber that appeared in front of them was indeed exquisite and clear. There were no impurities, and it looked like a piece of glass!
Upon closer inspection, there was actually a flower inside the stone!
It was a bright red flower that was covered with fine lines!
From the looks of it, there was actually a faint, soul-stirring feeling!
‘When had the crowd ever seen such a strange thing? Immediately, there was an outbreak of discussion.
“Is this stone amber? Why does it feel completely different from ordinary stone amber?”
“What exactly is this thing? Why do I feel dizzy when I stare at it? Why do I feel like I can’t exert my strength?”
“Yes, I have the same feeling!”
“Everyone, please try not to stare at it. This thing might be some evil thing that can seduce people’s souls!”
Many people immediately looked away when they heard that.
‘There were all kinds of strange things in the greater world. Among them, there were some strange things that could suck people’s blood essence, steal people’s souls, and kill people invisibly!
“Miss Fei Cai, what exactly is this thing? Explain it to us quickly!”
“It can’t be some kind of evil thing, right? Is the Hundred Treasures House trying to harm us?”
Fei Cai was not surprised by everyone’s reaction.
On the contrary, with so many strange and bizarre guesses, it could help her to make this thing even more popular.
‘Therefore, she didn’t stop the crowd’s discussion. She just watched quietly with a smile. Now that they had asked questions, it was time for her to speak.
She made a hand gesture, and the entire hall instantly quieted down. Then, she said slowly, “Guests, please rest assured. This thing is definitely not some kind of evil thing.”
“Although we can’t identify what this thing is, it has been in the Hundred Treasures House for three months.”
“If this is really an evil thing, I’m afraid the Hundred Treasures House would not exist now.”
“Moreover, we also discovered that although this thing makes people feel dizzy at first glance, it actually has the effect of helping people calm down and focus their minds.”
“So, this item is definitely not an ordinary item. It’s very likely that it has an unexpected magical effect.”
“However, since we haven’t been able to identify what this item is, the starting price is only one low-quality spirit stone. You can raise the price as you wish.”
“If any of you are willing to investigate, you might as well bid for this item and study it slowly. Who knows, this might be a peerless secret treasure.”
Her words pushed the atmosphere to a climax.
No one would doubt her words. If the Hundred Treasures House dared to deceive the bidders, they wouldn’t be able to survive for long.
If it was really as Fei Cai said, this item had the effect of calming the Qi and concentrating the mind, then in addition to its unknown mysteriousness, the starting price of one low-quality spirit stone was nothing.
Very soon, someone made a bid.
“Lbid one low-quality spirit stone and fifty taels of silver!”
“I bid two low-quality spirit stones!”
Jiang Ping’s gaze couldn’t help but be attracted by this thing.
So, for a moment, he actually didn’t notice Liu’er’s abnormality.
