The Second Wife of a Rich Old Man 30
After breakfast, Meng Yang and the others went directly to the largest Fragrance Garden in the city. Every year, the quarterly price guessing auction would be held here.
Lin Sung-tai, Xu Wangya, and other masters of Saint Elegant Garden had also arrived. They were drinking tea and chatting. Yu Junchen and the others had also arrived, but Xu Wangya's face was not very good. Yu Junchen and the others also lowered their heads slightly and did not talk to each other.
Meng Yang and the others walked over and saluted the masters.
"Sit down." Lin Sung-tai said with a smile, "I heard that yesterday's spice auction was bought by Meng Yang alone?"
"Not all of them." Meng Yang replied, "At the beginning, there were a few things that I didn't think were needed, so I didn't bid. Later, I thought that even if I didn't need them for the time being, I would keep them and they would be useful in the future. So I bought all the rest."
Lin Sung-tai and the masters next to him laughed, but Xu Wangya and the masters next to him at another round table didn't look very good.
"Teacher, I won't cause any trouble by doing this, right?" Although Meng Yang felt that there was no need to hide his strength, it was better to ask.
"You are still a student now. It is still necessary to show your strength as much as possible. When you become famous, remember to leave some food for others." Lin Sung-tai said.
"Yes, I will remember." Meng Yang also thought so. For him now, the most important thing was to become famous and be able to participate in higher-level auctions in the future.
"Later, you will go in with me. How about you guess the price and bid?" Lin Sung-tai asked.
"Thank you for being willing to give me a chance, teacher. If I guess the price correctly, can I buy it myself?" Meng Yang asked.
"Of course." Lin Sung-tai said.
"Thank you, Teacher." Meng Yang thanked him happily.
With the sound of the gong, the folding wooden doors that separated the inside from the outside were all pushed open. Those who were qualified to bid got up and walked in, while the others stayed outside to watch.
Every person who was qualified to bid could bring one person in as a helper, and most of the helpers they brought were experts at guessing the price and bidding.
There were also people like Lin Sung-tai, who brought their students to see the world and learn.
Yu Junchen was Xu Wangya's most worthy student, so of course Xu Wangya would bring him along. No matter what, he had to nurture Yu Junchen and let Yu Junchen win more awards. Whether it was in the academy or in the association, only then would he have more say. If Yu Junchen lost to Meng Yang, Lin Sung-tai would take advantage of this opportunity to surpass him.
The first round of the bidding began. In the first round, there were two kinds of spices in the first group. In each round, only one person from each group could go forward to identify the quality of the spices.
In the first round, there were spices that Xu Wangya needed, so he went forward to identify the quality of the spices.
Bléret was walking in front of Meng Yang, but he suddenly turned around and said, "After you."
Meng Yang didn't know why he was giving in, and didn't want to waste time talking nonsense. He just nodded and walked in front of him to identify the quality of the spices.
Meng Yang just sniffed and didn't even look at them. After confirming, he returned to his seat. After thinking for a while, he wrote down the price on the wooden board.
"Are you confident?" Lin Sung-tai asked.
"Yes." Meng Yang nodded.
Lin Sung-tai smiled and continued to drink tea.
Not long after the wooden board was put away, the staff announced loudly, "Spices No. 1 and No. 2 have been won by guest No. 17."
Lin Sung-tai's smile became bigger, and Xu Wangya immediately turned to look at Meng Yang. He couldn't help but clench his fist. Spice No. 1 was exactly what he needed.
The next two rounds of spices were all won by Meng Yang. The other guests who participated in the bidding didn't look so good, and the people who were watching outside also talked about it because of the surprise.
"Who is that young man? He's so powerful. "
"Didn't you see him sitting with master Lin Sung-tai? He's most likely a new student of master Lin Sung-tai. To be able to be a student of such a world-class master, he must be extraordinary. "
"There are quite a few masters and experts at guessing and bidding among them. Did he just outshine them all by himself?"
"Isn't it just the third round? It's too early to say this. "
The fourth and fifth rounds soon began. Xu Wangya originally wanted to let Yu Junchen have a try after winning the spices he needed. Even if the price wasn't very accurate, as long as it was close to the price, it would be a learning experience. But now, he didn't plan to let Yu Junchen go up.
"Teacher, can I buy all the spices?" Meng Yang returned to his seat and asked Lin Sung-tai.
