Tomb Raider: I, at the beginning, took Fatty Lao Hu as my younger brother

Zhou Xun smiled and said, "Of course I'm worried, so there will definitely be a lot of trouble in the future!"

Shirley Yang said: "Then this kid will be in trouble!"

Zhang Yingchen glanced at Li Xiaohua and said, "This kid is not simple!"

Zhou Xun was a little surprised: "Not bad, Lao Zhang, it seems that you have learned a lot from Tui Bei Tu in the past few years!"

Although he was a little surprised, he quickly calmed down. Zhang Yingchen had an extraordinary understanding and was quite talented in this area.

During these eight years, Lao Hu, relying on his talent, has mastered the sixteen-character Yin-Yang Feng Shui secret technique.

Zhang Yingchen said modestly: "No, I'm just getting started!"

Zhou Xun smiled and said, "You!"

Anyway, no one said anything bad about the Crescent Hotel, so the bored people started chatting about this and that.

ten minutes later.

The owner of the Crescent Hotel, the beautiful woman, walked in with a few waiters.

The waiter put down the snacks and fruits and walked out.

The beautiful woman came to Zhou Xun and said, "Thank you, Master Zhou, for coming to our Xinyue Hotel. Master Zhou, it's not easy to invite you once. Before in Guibaodi, you agreed very readily!"

Zhou Xun smiled and said, "You misunderstood. In the past few years, every time you invited me, I didn't refuse on purpose. During your auction, I was abroad!"

"Besides, I said at the time that I would come over whenever I had time. Look, now that I have time, I have come over, and I even brought my family and a bunch of brothers to support you!"

The beautiful woman smiled and said, "Of course, I'm not kidding you. I wonder if you have seen the items for sale today. Do you like any of them? If so, I'll make them and give them to you!"

Give it to him?

They are so generous, considering that they are competitors.

The weasel can’t bear the New Year’s greetings from the chicken!

Zhou Xun looked at the beautiful woman and said, "Forget about giving it to me. Although our Tang Song Auction House is not as powerful as the Crescent Hotel, we still have plenty of money!"

Seeing Zhou Xun's refusal, the beautiful woman did not say anything else: "That's fine, the auction will start soon, Master Zhou, call me if you need anything!"

Zhou Xun nodded slightly: "Thank you!"

The beautiful woman also nodded slightly in return and then walked out.

The fat man asked, "Master Zhou, why do you think she is always so polite to us?"

Shirley Yang said: "It stands to reason that Tang Song 720 Auction House must have had an impact on the Crescent Hotel over the years, but judging from her expression, she doesn't seem to care about it!"

Zhou Xun picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. He said, "They have a big family and a big business. The auction house industry is also quite special. Their clients are not fixed. Although it has affected the status of the Crescent Hotel, it will not affect their ability to make money!"

"Besides, the Crescent Hotel is not short of money. Do you think they have such a deep hatred for us?"

Old Hu said, "That's right. Even if our Tang Song Auction House becomes the best in the world, it won't affect other large auction houses. After all, the auction items are the most important thing for an auction house!"

"As for why they are so polite to us, it should be because they don't want to be our enemy. We had good power in all aspects before, the only thing we lacked was an official background."

"Now, who in the country can compare with us in terms of official background? Lao Zhou has been praised by national leaders."

After all, Lao Hu has been doing business for many years and is not stupid. He is already familiar with the twists and turns and business tricks.

At this moment, the sound of bells suddenly came from below!

"Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding!".

Chapter 374: Jie Family Little Flower

A listening slave walked onto the stage and said, "The auction is now officially starting!"

"The item being auctioned now is the first lot of this auction, the Yelang Rain Night Pot from the Qing Dynasty!"

"The starting price is 100,000 yuan, and each bid increase must not be less than 10,000 yuan!"

“The auction starts now!”

"Ding!" One hundred and ten thousand!

"Ding!" One hundred and twenty thousand!

"Ding!" One hundred and thirty thousand!

The Crescent Hotel is different from the Tang and Song Auction House. Guests don’t need to raise a sign, they just need to press the bell.

Listen to the slave and tell me the price every time.

"Ding!" Three hundred and sixty thousand!

"Congratulations, the deal is $360,000!"

......

From low to high, the items in the later auctions become more and more valuable.

The low price has risen to five million.

Don’t underestimate this five million item, it’s just an ordinary item in the Tang and Song Auction House.

But it is not a small amount. The purchasing power of five million in the 1990s would be at least many times higher in the 21st century.

The last common item was a bronze ware.

Zhou Xun still felt that it was awesome that they dared to auction the bronze ware.

At least, his Tang and Song Dynasty Auction House has never auctioned bronze ware. It’s not that it never had any, but that it never auctioned any.

The reason why I dare not disagree is mainly because the significance of bronze ware is too great.

Almost all of Zhou Xun's bronze artifacts are collected in museums.

"Ding!" Eight and a half million!

"Ding!" Nine million!

"Ding!" "Ding!" Ten million!

"Congratulations, the deal is worth 10 million!"

"The item being auctioned now is one of the most important items, the thousand-year-old Qilinjie, which is a very rare traditional Chinese medicine..."

Although it is the finale item.

But there are not many people who need it.

Moreover, the Millennium Kirin Blood is not very mysterious. Although it can restrain some poisons, it cannot be immune to all poisons or cure all poisons.

However, eating it does not scare away mosquitoes and has a small amount of evil-repelling function, which is still very powerful.

Although there are not many people who need it, there are still some who need it. Not only Zhou Xun is interested in this item, but also the Jie family and the Huo family.

The Xie and Huo families visit tombs less frequently nowadays, but they are still a family of tomb robbers after all.

Jie Xiaohua: “Ding!” Eight million!

Huo Xiangu: “Ding!” Eight and a half million!

Jie Xiaohua: “Ding!” Nine million!

......

While the two families were fighting, Zhou Xun just watched quietly.

Zhou Xun didn't plan to keep ringing the bell. If he had to take action, it should be at the very end.

Huo Xiangu: “Ding!” Fifteen million!

Waited for a while.

Zhou Xun knew that Jie Xiaohua had given up.

Although Jie Xiaohua is young, she is mentally mature and knows when to earn money and when to give up.

Just when Huo Xiangu showed a satisfied look.

Zhou Xun made a bid: “Ding!” Twenty million!

Huo Xiangu was stunned and looked at Zhou Xun opposite her.

Zhou Xun nodded and smiled as a greeting.

Fairy Huo looked at Zhou Xun for several seconds, wondering where this young man came from.

But in the end, no further bid was made.

It’s not worth it. The Huo family rarely visits the tombs nowadays.

Fairy Huo looked at Zhou Xun's expression and the timing of his attack and knew that the other party was determined to get the Qilin Jie.

Anyone who can go to the second floor must not be a simple character. The Huo family is having a hard time now, and there is no need to offend an unknown force.

Then he nodded slightly in return.

"Congratulations, the deal is worth 20 million!"

Zhou Xun had no interest in the two antiques behind.

At the auction house, Zhou Xun would only bid high prices on cultural relics unless they were first-class cultural relics or national treasures. Otherwise, he would not be interested in them.

Obviously, the last two antiques in the Crescent Hotel did not catch Zhou Xun's eye.

But it is rare in the market.

Others are not Zhou Xun, who has countless collections. In the end, the two antiques were sold for 20 million and 25 million respectively.

Auction ends.

After Zhou Xun settled the payment and goods, he prepared to go home.

Just came out of the private room.

"Master Zhou!"

Zhou Xun recognized the voice as that of the head of the Yin family, so he stopped and turned to look.

I saw the head of the Yin family coming over with a teenage girl.

He introduced Zhou Xun: "Master Zhou, this is my daughter, Yin Nanfeng, and the next head of the Crescent Hotel."

Then he said to Yin Nanfeng: "This is Master Zhou, call for help!"

"Master Zhou!"

Yin Nanfeng called out obediently.

Zhou Xun looked at Patriarch Yin curiously and asked, "What is this?"

Patriarch Yin smiled and said, "As the future Patriarch of the Crescent Hotel, I am bringing her here to meet Master Zhou. I hope Master Zhou will take good care of her in the future!"

The beautiful woman knows that the current Mr. Zhou is not the same Mr. Zhou eight years ago.

The force is so powerful that even the Crescent Hotel might be in danger of being destroyed if it were to face it. What's more, Zhou Xun eight years ago was not an ordinary character, and not someone that the Crescent Hotel dared to offend easily.

Zhou Xun touched the little girl's head and said with a smile: "Okay!"

At this time, Jie Xiaohua also walked out of the private room and looked at Zhou Xun curiously.

When the head of the Yin family saw Xie Xiaohua coming out, he said to her, "Yuchen, are you leaving?"

Xie Xiaohua nodded, still looking at Zhou Xun and his gang curiously.

The head of the Yin family introduced: "Master Zhou, this is the Little Nine Master of the Nine Gates, and the current head of the Xie family."

"Yuchen, this is Mr. Zhou from Tang Song Antique City and Tang Song Auction House!"

Zhou Xun looked at the delicate Jie Xiaohua, who was so cute that he couldn't help but touch her.

The other party is the head of the family, and although this is a bit impolite, Jie Xiaohua is really adorable.

If he changes into women's clothes, who would know he is a boy?

Seeing Zhou Xun's rude behavior, the Xie family guards stepped forward, ready to teach him a lesson.

Xie Xiaohua was startled and took a step back.

It wasn’t that Zhou Xun’s rude behavior scared him.

Instead, the four ferocious beasts around Zhou Xun saw that the guards on the opposite side were looking for trouble, and they all showed their murderous aura to oppress the other side.

Although it was not targeted at Jie Xiaohua, the remaining power was not something he could withstand at such a young age.
