Rebirth of the Peak Young Master-Chapter 1229: A Better Impression

The pristine snow lotus, pure white and flawless, is placed inside a delicate glass box surrounded by dazzling lights, capable of captivating the hearts of any woman in the world.

After hesitating for three minutes, Xu Siyu ultimately remained silent. It wasn't that she truly believed Mr. Ye's words, but she decided to leave a better impression on him by not bidding further. She let the snow lotus fall into the hands of someone else, although she did not give up, she was not greatly affected by it.

"Mr. Ye, is there anything you like? If you're willing, you can chat with me. I took this photo for you to make up for today's unhappiness."

As the snow lotus left the stage, Xu Siyu whispered softly.

Previously, she thought Mr. Ye had high standards and wasn't interested in these things. Just now, Mr. Ye's suggestion made her realize that he also cared about the change of items on the stage. Because of this, she had some doubts about the hesitation in Mr. Ye's bag, and could only watch silently.

"No,"

Mr. Ye shook his head and glanced at the red gourd on the stage, saying, "If you want to buy a birthday gift for your grandfather, consider taking a picture of this Seven Treasures Gourd; hanging it by the bed can ward off illness."

"Gourd..."

Xu Siyu looked up, her gaze falling on the gourd, which seemed like something people had been playing with for a long time. After a moment of silence, she raised her hand.

"Three hundred thousand."

Inwardly, Mr. Ye shook his head. This auction house doesn't even calculate the actual value of these items. The starting price for a rotten compass is 800,000 yuan, but the disease-preventing Seven Treasures Gourd is offered at a loss of 200,000 yuan; these people have lost all knowledge of the items being auctioned. Otherwise, this auction house would suffer a substantial loss.

They don't know that goods are also a kind of loss. Some people bid just by following Xu Siyu's lead. In the end, Xu Siyu got her hands on the Seven Treasures Gourd, which is riddled with diseases, at the price of 350,000 yuan.

Seeing this, Ye Feng nodded slightly, closed his eyes, and remained silent.

"Yes..."

Looking somewhat pleased, Xu Siyu wanted to say something but stopped when she saw Mr. Ye closing his eyes. She didn't speak further but instead used the time to take a closer look at that face, not handsome, yet extremely charismatic. She tried to figure out what it was about this young man that attracted her, but unfortunately, she couldn't.

When Mr. Ye opened his eyes again, Xu Siyu guiltily looked away. His pale face had an unhealthy blush, as if he were drunk, making others frequently turn their heads.

Before Xu Siyu could react, Mr. Ye had already taken out a number plate, raised his hand, causing a scare throughout the venue.

"Thirty million."

The entire audience fell into a dead silence. Everyone focused on the young man before them, curious about how he could call out a price of thirty million without even moving the item on stage.

Thirty million! Not three million!

Even three million is beyond the immediate reach of half the people here, let alone thirty million! This is real operating capital!

Here, if you spend thirty million to buy something that's not even known, your net worth should be at least two, no, more than five billion, right?

Is it possible for someone so young?

The auctioneer on the stage moved quickly. After a brief surprise, he quickly picked up the hammer and said to Mr. Ye: "Sir, are you really planning to spend thirty million on this tree root without knowing its origin?"

As his voice fell, the audience finally saw the staff pushing a dark tree root onto the stage.

The wheel-sized tree stump looked as if it had been struck by lightning. It was very dark. If you want to be an ordinary person, you can only comment with one glance:

Trash!

"Do you know, Mr. Ye?"

Xu Siyu grabbed Mr. Ye's arm, carefully trying to remind him.

Thirty million yuan is enough to cause people around to lose their color, but for her, it's not a big deal. For this reason, she appeared fine, but was worried for Mr. Ye.

Mr. Ye turned his gaze away, casually saying, "This is useful to me."

"But your price is too high!"

Xu said, "No one can keep stopping like you."

"I have room."

He whispered, with a slight tilt of his head, looking for that thread of intense gaze, discovering the middle-aged man in the corner.

As soon as the words fell, the middle-aged man looked away, raising the card in his hand: "Thirty-five million."

"Fifty million."

Before the auctioneer on stage could react, Mr. Ye again called out a price that made people shiver.

Fifty million!

This number is high enough to make 99% of the people on site feel helpless.

"First of all, sir, are you joking?"

Clearly, the staff were also shocked by Mr. Ye's reported number, and some of them felt astonished to see this young man whose appearance remained unchanged even after such an astronomical figure was mentioned.

"One billion."

Mr. Ye repeated the price once again.

"Yes, but..."

The staff wanted to say more but were interrupted by a voice in their earpiece. After bowing to Mr. Ye, he carefully took out a bloody jade token, more humble than his own inherited card.

"Ladies and gentlemen, due to unexpected circumstances, we are temporarily auctioning an additional item today. You see, it's the one in my hand..."

The auctioneer on stage was troubled. This item has nothing special about it. If you want to say something, maybe it was a few years ago. It's an antique, but what could sell for a billion? A national treasure? Or is it worth recording? If this number is reported, would it be interpreted as foolishness?

He thought he could earn a lot of money through commission today, but it's a trick. If I want to control this situation, it'll require a million. When it's time to shoot, my faultless career is over, right?

What bad luck! If not for the boss's stringent requests, he would even consider quitting, finding someone else to replace him!

"Mr. Ye, what use does this jade token have?"

Xu Siyu was somewhat puzzled. Mr. Ye's terrifying, costive behavior also shocked her. If it weren't for her health, she might have gotten a heart attack.

A billion, higher than most currently! It's hard to say, even in Yangzhou, someone with a billion yuan in liquid assets to bid can't have more than one hand in a situation like this. Mr. Ye taking out a jade token, claiming it to sell for a billion yuan – if he did that, it would be the same story!

If Mr. Ye took out a bank card with five million yuan to startle Xu Siyu, now he takes out a jade token selling for a billion yuan, this is what makes Xu Siyu feel something's wrong with the man's brain.

That's real money, not a series of numbers. When you see the skin under your mouth, it comes out!

"According to this gentleman, the base price of this jade token is one billion!"

After pausing for a while, the auctioneer on stage still closed his eyes and announced the number that ruined his career.

"One and a half billion."

When everyone was stunned, a woman raised a placard taken from the person beside her, walking towards Mr. Ye's direction.

Daring to call out a billion?

Spending a billion to buy something you don't know its use?

When did Yangzhou have such a powerful person?

When did Yangzhou allow such a strong presence?

They glanced at each other, focusing on the woman who was slowly walking at the moment, recognizing who she was before realizing it.

Moreover, many people are silly enough with this money, how could it not be the people from Yangzhou? Besides Qin Family's daughter Tian Yu, who else could spend so much money on a jade token without knowing its use?

According to Tian Yu's deep gaze, it's clear to see wherever this woman goes to buy a jade token, she doesn't really need to go do it for others!

That made them more curious about the identity of this odd face; he's willing to spend 50 million on a rotten tree root and take out a jade token to sell for a billion.
