Chapter 202: Sky-high Price, the Spiritual Blood Cauldron is Obtained
The auction did not stop because of this episode. Just when Yao Qingnian was about to fall asleep, he finally heard the last item being auctioned - the Lingxue Hu.
"This Lingxuehu is not simple. It can not only cure all kinds of poisons, but also cure various difficult and complicated diseases. It is said to have the effect of bringing the dead back to life. It is rare in the world. The starting price is five thousand taels!"
Tang Huiyun's eyes revealed desire. When the auction started, Tang Huiyun offered 10,000 taels first, and someone followed with 15,000, 20,000 taels... As the price got higher and higher, it was auctioned off to 100,000 taels. Her entire fortune was only a little over 100,000 taels, which she had to raise by selling everything she had.
At this time, Liu Mo, who had left, came back and pretended nothing had happened, and continued bidding: "One hundred and twenty thousand!"
"Why is this Mr. Liu back again? When Miss Tang had no money just now, he was nowhere to be seen. It seems that he is just being insincere..." Liu Mo's behavior aroused the disgust of everyone, and they accused him of being a hypocritical person.
Liu Mo's face turned pale, but he still pretended to be calm. He had to get the Lingxuehu today!
"This gentleman is offering 120,000 yuan. Is there anyone else willing to bid?"
"130,000!" Tang Huiyun gritted her teeth!
"Fifteen thousand!" Liu Mo continued.
Tang Huiyun had no money left, and it seemed there was no hope today, so she immediately felt relieved.
Yao Qingnian didn't have that much money, so he couldn't help.
"Two hundred thousand!" Suddenly a man's arrogant voice sounded.
Everyone looked over and saw a man dressed as a butler, a stranger who they didn't recognize.
The sky-high price of two hundred thousand was very difficult even for the Liu family. The family only offered the highest price of one hundred and fifty thousand. It seemed that they could not get the medicinal materials today.
"Two hundred thousand once, two hundred thousand twice, two hundred thousand three times! Congratulations to this sir! You have obtained the Lingxuehu!" The highest priced medicinal herb in the venue tonight is two hundred thousand per plant.
"Miss Tang, without this medicinal herb, we can find another way." Yao Qingnian consoled her.
"Huiyun, why bother? It's the same if I can't get you!" Liu Mo walked over and looked at Tang Huiyun with sneer.
"So what? You and I are not on the same page. There's no point in talking to each other. I'm leaving first!" Tang Huiyun and Yao Qingnian were about to leave.
Liu Mo said, "You must have been exhausted these years. I know you and that man are not married. If you agree to follow me, I have a way to make you divorce him. I don't mind. I will also find a way to heal your face, provided that you can only be my aunt. After all, with my family background, my wife cannot be a disfigured woman... This is the best way I can think of for you."
Yao Qingnian felt countless rage running through her heart. This man seemed affectionate, but in fact he was a scumbag. His words were full of self-superiority, and he belittled Tang Huiyun as worthless. Such love was really suffocating.
"You asked someone to investigate me?! Ha! What's the difference between you and Mr. Qian? I don't need anyone. I can live well on my own!"
"Don't be ungrateful. I'm only being nice to you because of our childhood friendship. With your face, no one would want it if I gave it to someone else!" When Liu Mo saw that she didn't agree to his request, he began to show his true colors with a sinister look in his eyes.
"Shut up!" Tang Huiyun slapped him.
"You dare to hit me?" Liu Mo looked at her in disbelief.
"What's wrong with hitting you? I'm going to hit you! You look like you deserve a beating. Master, here I come!"
Han Junze suddenly appeared from somewhere, holding a folding fan in his hand.
"Han Junze, why are you here?!" Yao Qingnian was surprised. Didn't he go back to the capital?
"Master, I heard that Lingxuehu appeared here, so I came here immediately after I finished my work. This is for you!" Han Junze took out a box of medicinal herbs and handed it to Yao Qingnian, looking for praise.
When he opened it, he found that the Lingxuehu was taken by him. Yao Qingnian was surprised. This Han Junze was really a big sponsor.
"You're just going to give me this gold nugget just like that?" He can just give away the herb, which costs two hundred thousand taels per plant?
"It was originally given to you, otherwise why would I come all the way here? This medicinal herb can only play its greatest value in your hands, Master." Han Junze didn't care.
"Okay, then I'll accept it. Just consider it as my master owing you a favor. Feel free to ask for anything you want." Yao Qingnian put the herbs into the space. Lingxuehu was a rare herb. Only a small amount was needed to treat Tang Huiyun's face. The rest might be able to save lives in the critical moment in the future.
"Any request is fine?" Han Junze smiled.
"Tell me about it." Yao Qingnian was in a good mood. As long as he could do it, it would be okay.
"Master, would you consider a divorce?"
"I haven't seen you for a while, are you itching for trouble again? Your master-master is handsome, suave, and talented. Forget about the divorce. I can find another master who can do it." Yao Qingnian began to talk nonsense seriously again.
"Hey, I'm just kidding! Just teach me some medical skills!"
"That's pretty much it."
Seeing that the Lingxuehuo that he had been longing for was in their hands in an instant, Liu Mo's eyes were about to spit fire. He took it all in in just a moment.
The Tang family sent the silver over before the ghost market ended, and Tang Huiyao was released. When she saw Liu Mo standing with them, her hatred deepened.
"Brother Liu, where have you been?" She pouted, looking aggrieved.
"Let's go!" Liu Mo ignored her, gritted his teeth and said this before leaving. Tang Huiyao didn't know what was going on, so she could only follow him happily, complaining to Liu Mo all the time.
"Let's go too!" Yao Qingnian and a few others also left.
Lu Huaijin was standing not far away. He accidentally saw the woman talking and laughing with someone, and heard her praising her husband. He felt indescribable discomfort in his heart. However, he had only met the girl a few times, so what was he thinking? He smiled bitterly.
"Sir, do you want to continue looking? Otherwise, I will ask someone in the pavilion to look for it." The young man next to Lu Huaijin saluted.
"No need, go down!"
"Yes!" The boy disappeared in the crowd.
When the auction was just now taking place, Lu Huaijin originally thought that she liked that dress, and unconsciously wanted to buy it and give it to her. However, when he saw that she was playing a joke on him, he could not help but curl his lips, and did not interfere too much, but watched with great interest from the side.
As dawn approached, the people in the ghost market seemed to have heard some kind of call. They quickly packed up their stalls and disappeared into the darkness before dawn, leaving only a silent empty space, as if there had never been any noise or trade here...
