C1410 Consequences of Cheating
1"Alright, Mr Zhang is offering another seven hundred thousand. Are there any higher bidders than that seven hundred thousand? Seven hundred thousand going once, seven hundred thousand going twice, seven hundred thousand going thrice."
"Alright, this cartoon of a famous D Nation caricature master is now my Mr Zhang's. Congratulations to my Mr Zhang for auctioning our first collection of auction and helping me raise another seven hundred thousand dollars in good money."
"Next, we will begin the auction of the second item in our auction …"
President Zhao shouted, and took out the second item in his auction, it was a Qing Dynasty calligraphy and painting.
Zhang Xiaofann had collected a lot of calligraphy and paintings, so he was not interested in those, and started flirting with Ang Xiaolee below.
Time flowed like water. In the blink of an eye, more than an hour had passed. The charity auction had ended.
Everyone slowly moved towards the Treasure Hall. Tang Cuicui and Su Qi came over to remind them that the two of them were still in love with each other.
"Aren't the two of you finished, the charity auction is over, now everyone is going to appraise the treasures in the hall."
When Tang Cuicui said this, her heart was sour. At the same time that she was jealous of Ang Xiaolee's good luck, she was also jealous that Ang Xiaolee had met with true love.
"Alright, Xiaolee, you go with them first, I'll go backstage to bring the cartoons." After Zhang Xiaofann finished, he nodded towards Ang Xiaolee and gave her a kiss on the cheek before going to the backstage.
Ang Xiaolee looked at Zhang Xiaofann's disappearing figure and retracted his gaze. Su Qi took the initiative to hold Ang Xiaolee's arm.
"Xiaolee, I really envy you. If my Young Master Zhao is half as good as the Mr Zhang, I would be satisfied."
Ang Xiaolee said: "I think Young Master Zhao is a good person, and is very nice to you, and he is handsome, you guys will definitely be very happy."
"But he doesn't have as much money as Mr Zhang."
Ang Xiaolee shook her head.
"Sigh, when I said that I liked Mr Zhang, it was not because he was rich. You all definitely wouldn't believe me, but the truth is like this."
When Tang Cuicui and Su Qi heard this, they muttered the word "false" in their hearts at the same time and the three of them walked towards the Treasure Hall.
Zhang Xiaofann took the things in his hands, hid it inside his Bracelet Space and ran in front of Ang Xiaolee and the others.
Pulling Zhang Xiaofann along and looking at the treasures that came out from the Tao Cave, Zhang Xiaofann was surprised at first, but then he shook his head helplessly. From the markings on the Life Protection Ring, it really did look like it came from an expert in the Tao Cave.
However, the damage was too severe. If he used it again, it would become completely useless, and buying it would not be worth it. From the looks of it, if he wanted to give Ang Xiaolee a protective talisman, he had to create one himself.
Finding a jade pendant and bringing the snake into the jade pendant, with the snake's cultivation, he should not have any problems protecting Ang Xiaolee.
"Hehe, the treasure that everyone is looking at is left behind by my ancestors. This treasure is called the Life Protection Ring. As its name implies, it can protect the master's safety."
"With this kind of treasure, as long as you wear it, you'll be fine even if you fly down the cliff in a car."
"Normally, I don't want to sell treasures like this, but because something happened in my family recently, I wanted to sell this Life Protection Ring."
"Everyone, if you want, then give us a price. The minimum price is 350 million, and the price cannot be lower than 50 million each time."
The person who spoke was dressed as a Taoist and had a sword on his back, as if he was a master at capturing ghosts.
In this era, wearing this kind of clothes was even more eye-catching than Zhang Xiaofann's peasant attire. However, with the way he was dressed, even the owner of this place felt that what he said was true.
Most of the people here were Big Boss. They had plenty of money and valued their lives more than anything else. Such things were destined to be very popular.
"Four hundred million …"
"450 million."
"Five hundred million …"
When Elder Qiao saw that Zhang Xiaofann still did not increase the bid, he looked at Zhang Xiaofann. The meaning was obvious, he was asking Zhang Xiaofann the question.
Zhang Xiaofann shook his head, the Elder Qiao also did not increase the bid, the Spirit Dao cultivator saw that Zhang Xiaofann was causing trouble, and wanted to cause trouble for him.
"I say, little farmer, it's fine if you can't afford my student ring, but why aren't you letting others buy it?"
"What do you mean, you think that my ring is not a life protection ring and cannot protect the master's safety?"
Zhang Xiaofann shook his head.
"Then what do you mean? If you can't say what you want to say today, then I'll go on with you. When the time comes, you won't be able to bear the consequences."
Zhang Xiaofann felt very helpless.
"You really want me to say?"
When Zhang Xiaofann asked this question, that person felt guilty, and everyone else wanted to hear Zhang Xiaofann's opinion. If there really was a problem with the Life Protection Ring, then they would stop.
"Mr Zhang, we believe in your eyesight. Please help me see if you can buy that Life Protection Ring."
"Yes, Mr Zhang."
Zhang Xiaofann shook his head.
"It's not easy for everyone. I don't want to say that if you want to buy, you can buy it. That is your own free will. If I don't want to buy it, it is also my own will."
The Daoist priest muttered.
"Pretend! You can't see anything wrong with it, so don't spout nonsense and affect my business." The Taoist glared at Zhang Xiaofann as he spoke.
Zhang Xiaofann felt that this person was too despicable, leaving him with a way out of this predicament. He didn't even know how to thank others, so he wouldn't be polite.
"Then how about we take a gamble? I admit that your life guard ring is real. If you wear it and jump down from a skyscraper outside, you're not dead and your life guard ring isn't damaged, so just consider it my loss."
"Not only did I buy your Life Protection Ring at a high price, I even admitted my wrongs in front of everyone. What do you think?"
"Of course, if you die, or if your Life Protection Ring is damaged, apologize to me and let everyone beat you up to vent your anger, what do you think?"
When everyone heard this, they looked at that Daoist Priest, who was also unsure. When their ancestor died, he did say that he could only use this Life Protection Ring a few times, but it shouldn't be broken by just using it once, right?
"How is it …?" You must not be lying to me, you don't dare to bet with Mr Zhang! "
"Yeah, if you f * cking fool us with fake stuff and make us pay, we'll definitely not let you off."
"If you don't dare to bet, then you're lying to us. We'll beat this liar to death together."
Many people were unhappy. That Taoist clenched his teeth and decided to take the risk.
"Alright, little peasant, I'll bet with you. Just wait and apologize to me!"
After saying this, the Taoist strode towards the top floor of the skyscraper, while the rest of the group headed outside of the skyscraper.
Not long later, there were a lot of people gathered outside the skyscraper. They were all there to watch the commotion, and their chattering almost attracted the police over.
Ang Xiaolee grabbed onto Zhang Xiaofann's hand tightly. Zhang Xiaofann looked at the terrified Ang Xiaolee and knew that he was worried for him.
After all, if that person died, the direct cause would be Zhang Xiaofann, and that person would be facing a life and death lawsuit.
Zhang Xiaofann smiled faintly at Ang Xiaolee.2
"Don't worry, it'll be fine."
Ang Xiaolee nodded her head, but she was still very afraid.
Actually, Ang Xiaolee did not need to worry about this, because even if that Life Protection Ring failed, Zhang Xiaofann would immediately catch that person and not let him die.
After a few minutes, that person was finally ready. He came down from upstairs with a whoosh. He landed on the ground as if he was carrying a parachute. Nothing happened at all. All the bosses were extremely excited.
"Damn, this Life Protection Ring is too good. Just now, that bastard offered 400 million, I want to bid 800 million."
"What a big face! Eight hundred million and you want to buy such a good thing? I bid two billion!"
"…"
The group of shopkeepers were going crazy, this time the Daoist Priest was extremely happy, he walked over to Zhang Xiaofann and forced him to apologize.
Zhang Xiaofann asked the Daoist Priest to take out the Life Protection Ring first. At this time, the bosses were all dumbfounded.
The Daoist Priest was also dumbfounded. He did not expect his Life Protection Ring to have a clear crack. As long as he let go of it, it would shatter. How could a broken Life Protection Ring protect a person's life?
"This, this, this, how could this be?"
After the Taoist finished speaking, the boss couldn't help but laugh. If it wasn't for Zhang Xiaofann betting with this bastard just now.
They had been tricked. Buying a treasure that could only be used once, was that still a treasure? Using it once was already worth several hundred million.
If it was just a small accident and they used the chance, they would not be at a loss.
"F * ck you! You actually dare to sell such a lowly thing like this? Do you take us for fools? Beat us all up!"
As the circle of people spoke, they surrounded the Daoist Priest and beat him up. The Daoist Priest cried out for his mother in pain.
He was truly regretful. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have acted so shamelessly and allowed others to expose him, and he would have ended up in such a miserable state.
Because of this, the Treasure Convention ended abruptly. Elder Qiao invited Zhang Xiaofann to their home, and Zhang Xiaofann anxiously went to find Lee Ke'er.
Lee Ke'er had been following Huang Jiaojiao to study, and had obviously improved a lot. Now that Huang Jiaojiao had gone to the construction site, she was reading comics in the hotel lobby by herself.
Zhang Xiaofann came in from the outside and excitedly climbed onto Zhang Xiaofann's body with the monkey tree. Then, he carried Lee Ke'er into the private room.
As soon as they entered the room, the two of them started cultivating. Every corner of the room was occupied by them.
Zhang Xiaofann had also completely released his powers. In the past few days, Ang Xiaolee had been greedy enough to not be able to do anything to Ang Xiaolee. This time, he cultivated for an entire three hours.
Now that they had finished training, Zhang Xiaofann handed over the cartoon he got from the Yihee Sect of State D to Lee Ke'er. He was so excited that he immediately flipped through it and kissed Zhang Xiaofann.
"Hubby, you're too awesome. You know I like reading libretto."
Lee Ke'er was very talented when it came to reading comics. In this period of time, she had researched comics and learned a few moves. If she continued learning like this, it wouldn't be long before she becomes a true expert.
"For someone like you who doesn't like to study, reading texts must be very boring and boring. Reading comics is indeed the best option for you to pass your time."
After Zhang Xiaofann finished speaking, he got up from the bed and dressed himself. He walked to the table and took out the cartoon on being auctioned off from the Charity auction.
