As soon as Qin Shaofeng knew that there would be a medicinal herb auction, he was naturally interested.
Because according to Hu Xiaochuan, the medicinal herbs auctioned in this kind of special auction were definitely extremely rare medicinal herbs.
Qin Shaofeng had already made up his mind. If there were really some good medicinal herbs, he would definitely bid for them.
In a place like Earth, no amount of medicinal herbs would be enough!
This time, Qin Shaofeng planned to go with Hu Xiaochuan. As for Chen Dazhuang and Bai Xiaobai, they would stay in the dormitory and continue their cultivation.
However, Hu Xiaochuan had already left in advance and told Qin Shaofeng to wait until the auction was confirmed to start before calling him.
Just after half past six in the evening, Qin Shaofeng's phone rang. It was a call from Hu Xiaochuan.
"Lao San, tonight's auction is at eight o 'clock at the Ocean Hotel. Do you want me to send someone to pick you up?" Hu Xiaochuan's voice came from the phone.
"No need. I'll drive there myself later," Qin Shaofeng replied.
"Alright then. Hurry up!"
"Okay!"
After hanging up the phone, Qin Shaofeng drove his Land Rover to the Ocean Hotel.
The Ocean Hotel was a relatively famous five-star hotel. Under normal circumstances, the room price for a night was at least a thousand yuan. A slightly higher price would be two to three thousand yuan per night.
Qin Shaofeng even learned from Hu Xiaochuan that the most expensive presidential suite in the Ocean Hotel was eighty-eight thousand yuan per night.
Even so, the Ocean Hotel was very urgent to book rooms. There was not enough supply and demand.
However, it was different today. For some unknown reason, the entire Ocean Hotel seemed to have been booked.
Of course, the reason for such a situation was that the behind-the-scenes boss of the Ocean Hotel was also a warrior family. Moreover, the status of his family in the ancient martial arts world was higher than that of Hu Xiaochuan's family.
Therefore, the crowd and vehicles entering the Ocean Hotel today were more or less strict.
Even though Qin Shaofeng's Land Rover was dazzling, he was stopped by the security guard when he entered the gate.
This surprised Qin Shaofeng.
"Hey hey, kid, what are you doing here?"
As soon as Qin Shaofeng's car was stopped, he heard an impatient shout.
When Qin Shaofeng saw the disdainful expression on the security guard's face, he immediately knew what was going on.
How was this a security guard? The other party was a martial artist. Although he was only a small role of a beginner martial artist, he was now assigned to guard the door.
This was enough to show how different the auction held in the Ocean Hotel this time was.
"I'm here to attend the auction," Qin Shaofeng said.
"Participate in the auction?"
The security guard cast a sidelong glance at Qin Shaofeng, his face full of disdain.
Although this security guard was a beginner martial artist, with his realm, he could not detect Qin Shaofeng's realm at all.
Therefore, he believed that Qin Shaofeng was a rich young master. He did not know where he got the news that the Ocean Hotel was holding a special auction today, so he came to see it.
This security guard had seen this kind of situation many times.
After all, the Sea Hotel's auction was a special auction that was held regularly.
As a beginner martial artist, he naturally knew that this was an auction for martial artists.
Although he believed that Qin Shaofeng came to try his luck, the security guard still asked, "Do you have an invitation to this auction?"
"Invitation?" Qin Shaofeng frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "No!"
"Oh!"
The security guard seemed to have expected Qin Shaofeng's answer. Cold smile, he said, "If you don't have it, then let's go home?"
"If I don't have it, then can't I go in?" Qin Shaofeng asked.
"Hurry up and get out of here. If you don't have an invitation, then why are you still talking nonsense!" The security guard was somewhat impatient, "If you don't have an invitation, then please go back. Go back to your own home and stay there. This is not a place for you to come."
Hearing this sentence, Qin Shaofeng frowned slightly, and immediately dialed Hu Xiaochuan's phone.
Seeing this, the security guard did not stop Qin Shaofeng, and still let him make the call, even with a sneer on his face.
He had seen this kind of situation too many times. It was a call to show off, and then find a way out, but in the end, he still had to leave with his tail between his legs.
Oh, look at the face of a broken Land Rover, you dare to come?
You brat, don't you know that I have already stopped three cars that cost more than 10 million today?
At this moment, the security guard's heart was full of disdain for Qin Shaofeng.
As soon as the phone was connected, Hu Xiaochuan's voice sounded.
"Lao San, have you arrived?"
"I'm here!" Qin Shaofeng replied.
"Where have you been? Then why haven't I seen you! "Hu Xiaochuan's puzzled voice came from the phone.
Qin Shaofeng was somewhat speechless and said: "My brother Da Chuan, you need an invitation to go in, but you didn't give me an invitation!"
"Ah, I forgot!" Hu Xiaochuan seemed to remember something, "Lao San, wait a moment, I'll be right out."
After Hu Xiaochuan said this, he hung up the phone.
A few minutes later, when the security guard finally couldn't take it anymore and was about to force Qin Shaofeng to drive away, Hu Xiaochuan finally appeared.
"Lao San, you're finally here!"
As soon as Hu Xiaochuan appeared, he ran toward Qin Shaofeng.
When the security guard saw Hu Xiaochuan, he was also stunned and shocked.
Although he was only a beginner warrior, he knew some things about the martial arts world. He even knew a little about Hu Xiaochuan's identity.
Hu Xiaochuan's identity as the heir of the Hu Clan was naturally unknown to the security guard.
But he knew that Hu Xiaochuan came here with the woman of a big shot in the Hu Clan. In addition, Hu Xiaochuan's surname was Hu, so he immediately guessed that Hu Xiaochuan was a young master with some status in the Hu Clan.
Seeing Hu Xiaochuan's attitude toward Qin Shaofeng, the security guard was immediately dumbfounded.
Until Qin Shaofeng said to him again: "This time, can I go in?"
"Yes, yes!" The security guard immediately nodded his head like he was pounding garlic, his whole body tensing up.
At this moment, his heart was incomparably regretful.
He was only a beginner warrior, but he couldn't afford to offend any of the young masters of the Hu Clan.
"What's wrong, is this security guard making things difficult for you?" Hu Xiaochuan's brows slightly wrinkled.
But his words sent a chill down the security guard's spine and made him break out in a cold sweat.
"No!" Qin Shaofeng smiled slightly. He didn't let Hu Xiaochuan make things difficult for the security guard. After asking Hu Xiaochuan to get in the car, he directly drove the car into the Ocean Hotel.
For Qin Shaofeng, this security guard didn't matter at all, so there was no need to waste any time.
This made the security guard immediately breathe a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He looked at Qin Shaofeng's Land Rover with a trace of gratitude in his eyes.
Fortunately, Qin Shaofeng didn't argue with him, or he would be finished.
However, after this, the security guard became much more well-behaved. Even if he really met people who wanted to try their luck and enter the Ocean Hotel, he only kindly advised them to leave. He didn't speak in a disdainful tone, nor did he speak ill of them.
Qin Shaofeng seemed to have done a good deed!
After the car stopped in the parking lot, Qin Shaofeng followed Hu Xiaochuan into the Ocean Hotel, and then entered the auction square of the Ocean Hotel.
The auction square of the Ocean Hotel wasn't small. It was in the style of a large hall, and it could accommodate at least a thousand people.
Moreover, there were some private rooms on the side. Following Hu Xiaochuan to a room, Qin Shaofeng looked at the room, and felt that it was quite well decorated.
The room gave Qin Shaofeng a good feeling with its rich yet lively color scheme, bold and imposing layout, and beautiful lines that were close to nature.
Moreover, sitting in the private room, Qin Shaofeng could also see the situation outside, which was quite good.
At this time, after entering the private room, Qin Shaofeng already found that the whole auction square was already filled with people.
Although there weren't a thousand people, there were still four to five hundred people.
Although this auction wasn't as crowded as the other auctions held by the Ocean Hotel, where there would be a grand occasion of thousands of people, this was a martial arts auction.
However, this auction was an auction for warriors. Many of the warriors present were warriors. Although there were also ordinary people, the number of warriors had already exceeded 300.
An auction with three hundred martial artists was already considered a very big martial arts auction in Huaxia.
It was worth mentioning that the ordinary people who could come here to participate in the auction all knew about the existence of martial artists, and even had some connections with the martial arts world.
However, speaking of ordinary people, it was actually a relative term. Ordinary people who could enter here were basically very rich people. It was precisely because of their wealth that they were able to enter this place.
Nowadays, martial artists weren't hiding in the mountains to cultivate. They were all hiding in the city, and had completely integrated into the modern world.
Moreover, every time such an auction was held, it was precisely because of these rich and powerful ordinary people that the auction became more popular.
This was because many times, it was very easy for some items to appear in such an auction that could make ordinary people become martial artists.
Not long after Qin Shaofeng sat down, the auction began.
Soon, a middle-aged man appeared. At a glance, Qin Shaofeng knew that he was the auctioneer of this auction.
However, to Qin Shaofeng's surprise, he felt that this auctioneer was not simple.
Because his aura made Qin Shaofeng feel somewhat threatened.
At this time, Hu Xiaochuan suddenly said, "Third Brother, this man is the behind-the-scenes boss of the Ocean Hotel. His name is Lin Haicheng. Although he is only a martial artist who is close to the Xiantian Martial Master realm, he has some connections with the Lin family.
"Many people even think that he is a collateral member of the Lin family, which is why the Ocean Hotel is so big. And it is precisely because of this that the Ocean Hotel holds such a martial arts auction every once in a while, and many aristocratic families participate in it. "
The Lin family?
The Lin family, one of the five aristocratic families in Huaxia?
Qin Shaofeng's eyes flashed. However, Hu Xiaochuan said that Lin Haicheng was only a martial artist who was close to the Xiantian Martial Master realm.
This was because Qin Shaofeng clearly sensed that Lin Haicheng's aura was no longer that of a Xiantian martial artist, but a genuine Xiantian Martial Master. Moreover, he was a third-level Xiantian Martial Master.
A third-level Xiantian Martial Master expert was a certain danger to Qin Shaofeng.
However, Qin Shaofeng would not provoke him for no reason, so it was not a big deal.
At this time, Lin Haicheng suddenly spoke.
"I am Lin Haicheng, the auctioneer of this auction. Most of you know me, so I won't talk nonsense."
