The Adventures Of The Young Master Chapter 422
Advertisement
"10 million purple stones." It was an old voice yet energetic coming from the room number 10. They didn't know who it was as the staffs weren't willing to talk about it. However, they had some guesses of people who could waste money like this.
As a financial minister, Old Mo had always loved money and treated as his own life. In fact, he couldn't live without money. Although in the past he was a chef, now he took a full time career in being the financial minister. Of courses, his culinary skills weren't removed. Instead, it improved significantly that it was even him who was cooking for special occasions!
Not just that, many people had actually revered this minister for his cooking skills one time that he decided to show off out of boredom. In fact, a famous and grand restaurant had even sent an invitation to work there with a whooping salary. But, he rejected it. After all, he was the most entrusted aid of the young master. How would he supposed to do his job if he accepted it?
And now, he loved money very much but he couldn't help but grit his teeth to bid 10 million purple stones. All of for the sake of those shining sparkling eyes like stars of Little Mei!
That's right, it was Old Mo who bid the 10 million, jumping several folds of the actual previous bid!
Little Mei looked at Old Mo with a confused look. However, after a few seconds she immediately understood it and her eyes sparked brighter.
"Alright, that's worth it." Old Mo saw those sparkling and expecting eyes and think it didn't actually matter to spend millions of money to buy something this child wanted. Furthermore, the young master had told him to spoil this little girl secretly. So as a loyal servant, he was happy to do so. But ten million was a bit of a stung in his heart.

All the other rooms tried to look at who was there in the room number 10. However, their gazes couldn't pierce through the glass. Their curiosity was getting bigger and they couldn't satiate it, which made them frustrated.
"Ten million, going once! Going twice! No other bids? The Soul Hammer now belongs to the esteemed sir of room number 10!" Seeing that no one had bid again after that, the host finally decided to put a conclusion. He was very elated as of the moment. After all, the highest bid was ten million, that's almost 9 times the actual price! He could already imagine that he could at least get a million purple stones just in this one item. Thus, he was very very happy.
A staff immediately picked the hammer and gave it to Old Mo. He paid the bill without hesitation using a card and the staff bowed before leaving with the payment. This was how their auction house worked, the item would be sent to your doorstep immediately and you can pay it already. Furthermore, they were accepting cards that only a very few had the capability to accept one. So, it was very convenient for Old Mo.
"Now, let's bring the second item for today!" The host tried to contain his happiness and said, "It is an ancient book, which contains thousand to millions of body strengthening techniques. It was personally created by Immortal Emperor Shi in the past!"
Everyone sucked a mouthful of breath. This legendary existence was someone everyone had idolized for months now. There were legends that not just immortals had descended to this place. Even a powerful immortal emperor of the higher world had done so. And the only immortal emperor on the record was Shi.
When everyone had heard of her legends, they couldn't help but be amazed of how he sweep through her enemies. And everyone couldn't help but admire her for so long. However, after just a week, she disappeared. Who would have thought that she would leave her legacy here?

So this item was very precious yet the owner wanted to sell it. It just meant that it was from a powerful person who needed a lot of money.
"The starting bid is 500,000 purple stones!" The bunny host shouted.
Everyone tried to outbid each other as the bid of the item ultimately reached 5 million purple stones! Furthermore, it didn't stop there as the bid increased significantly!
"Don't try to fight with me. I want Emperor Shi's book. 6 million!" The person the room number one couldn't hold back and said. This was his purpose of coming here. To get this book from the woman he fell in love!
"We know that you will just use the book for your fetish. So, we will fight it out with you to save the book. 7 million!" The lady from room number 2 spoke.
"Hah, as if you can succeed. Even if our friendship is ruined because of this, I don't care. I want this book no matter what. So no one should think of having this book from me!" The person from room number one said arrogantly. He was madly in love with Emperor Shi the first time he saw her. So he was so broken when he knew that the emperor disappeared.
"You..." The lady in room number two was surprised when she heard this. Her voiced contained a little loneliness and said, "Do what you want. Let's see how you can do it! 8 million!"
The man from room number one sneered and was about to bid higher when Old Mo suddenly spoke, "15 million."
Everyone's jaw almost dropped. They had been increasing the bid by a million and it was already extravagant. Yet, the person in the room number 10 increased the bid by seven times!
The man from room number one almost flinched. He gritted his teeth and said, "16 million..."
His voice was weak. However, the bunny host could still hear it, "16 million, any higher bid? Going once! Going twice! —"
"20 million." Old Mo didn't back off and said.
"You!" The man from number one almost spat blood from frustration. This person from the last room was getting into his nerves!
