"You should know, this is a Cursed Night Spirit that has been alive for over a hundred years. Who can guarantee a one hundred percent success rate of removing the curse without it backfiring?"
Qiao Sang fell silent for a few seconds, then hypothesized:
"If, I mean if, someone spends money to have others snatch the auction items and then get their hands on them, would there be trouble?"
Why would a minor think so much? She’s not actually planning to do that, right... Yu Ke paused, silently shifted her seat to the side, and said:
"Apart from the person who wins the item at the auction, anyone who obtains the auction items through illegal means will be cursed, no matter how many hands it passes through."
At this point, she felt uneasy and emphasized, "I mean anyone!"
Oh my God, what did I miss... Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang deeply regretted being too cautious earlier and not bidding for that pile of treasures at the previous auction!
"Bidder number 255, 567 million for the second time!" At that moment, the auctioneer’s voice entered her ears.
Qiao Sang snapped to attention, and with a burst of energy, raised her paddle: "600 million!"
Yu Ke: "!!!"
This tender voice caught the few competitors still in contention off guard. Everyone suddenly turned their heads, and then they saw the minor in a school uniform.
Everyone: "???"
Everyone at the scene was stunned, including Tang Shu on the stage.
"Whose child is this? Doesn’t she have any elders to supervise her?"
"I’ve never seen her school uniform before, it doesn’t seem to be from one of the top ten high schools in the Imperial Capital."
"That bid shouldn’t count, right?"
For a moment, the crowd began to stir.
Before Tang Shu could take control, a voice came from a VIP booth, "610 million."
"620 million," Qiao Sang followed closely.
"Isn’t anyone going to intervene? Shouldn’t we verify funds first? If people just shout any price and then call for their parents to pay up, what if the others refuse to acknowledge it?" Someone in the hall voiced their dissatisfaction.
Tang Shu fell silent for a moment, just about to speak.
At that moment, a voice from the staff headset spoke, "The auction continues; the child is holding a Black Gold Card from the Federation’s Ding Shi Bank."
Tang Shu: "!!!"
"Bidder number 67, 620 million, once!" Tang Shu shouted loudly.
This... The crowd went silent, sensing the auctioneer’s attitude. Could this child really afford to pay that money?
"Bidder number 67, 620 million, twice!"
"630 million." The voice from the VIP booth bid again.
"700 million," Qiao Sang raised her paddle.
"710 million."
"800 million."
"Bidder number 67, 800 million, once!" Tang Shu’s face turned red with excitement.
The VIP booth fell silent.
"Bidder number 67, 800 million, twice!"
"810 million." The voice from the VIP booth spoke once more.
Qiao Sang raised her paddle without hesitation: "900 million."
Everyone’s mind went blank.
The minimum bid increment at the Mu Zhen Auction House was 500,000. Who raises the bid by 90 million all at once?!
Ah, how much is a 900 million commission! Tang Shu looked exhilarated, as if she could hear her own pounding heartbeat.
