The scene just now was comparable to the special effects in the movies, and it immediately piqued everyone's interest. Could this really be a magic artifact, the kind with special energy?
"This is the magic artifact we are auctioning today. After this jade pendant has been consecrated, it can protect your life. Whether you get into a car accident or get ambushed, it can protect your life," the auctioneer said as he picked up the jade pendant.
"Are you bragging? Is it really that magical? It can protect my life in a car accident?"
"Yeah, it's just a jade pendant. Maybe the golden light just now was some modern instrument placed under the box."
Everyone lived in the 21st century and had been educated in traditional science since they were young. They all thought that supernatural spells were made up in movies. Seeing the auctioneer say that it was amazing, everyone naturally did not believe him.
The auctioneer, on the other hand, was confident and had a faint smile on his face. From the side of the stage, a strong man walked up with his back straight. It was Chu Tian's bodyguard, Jin Hu. He took the jade pendant and said loudly, "Let me demonstrate it to everyone." He then nodded to the henchman below the stage.
The other party actually took out a gun. Everyone below the stage widened their eyes and did not even dare to breathe.
"Bang!" The henchman directly pulled the trigger and a bullet flew out of the chamber towards Golden Tiger.
Some of the women were so scared that they screamed. Bang! It was like the sound of metal hitting metal. Jin Hu's body was suddenly enveloped in a golden light. The bullet was forcibly blocked a foot in front of his chest and fell to the ground.
The entire Jia Shi Auction House was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. There were even people looking around to see if they were filming some kind of strange variety show.
Even bullets could be blocked. This was simply Superman in Hollywood, the main character in the Matrix!
Chen Qingai and Wang Ziping were both dumbfounded, and Duan Shanhe could not close his mouth for a long time. There were indeed rites of passage ritual implements in this world. If one could cultivate the Dragon Roar Golden Bell Shield and the Tiger Roar Iron Skin to an extraordinary level, they would indeed be a Martial Dao Grandmaster. But after all, they were not famous yet. Who would be so eager to give them a priceless jade pendant?
Zhuo Bufan did not explain and said that she needed to go to the toilet. She left her seat and went to the private room upstairs.
Chu Tian hurriedly stood up. "Mr Zhuo."
Zhuo Bufan nodded and sat down on the sofa.
"Mr. Zhuo, the first jade pendant has been scrapped. The second jade pendant is selling for 60 million. The third jade pendant has the effect of nourishing and storing Qi, so the price should be slightly lower. It's already pretty good if it's sold for 40 million. Just now, the manager of the Jia Group came to look for me and said that they won't deduct our processing fees. However, the boss of the Jia Group wants to meet me to discuss cooperation," Chu Tian reported.
Jin Hu and the others stood to the side. They had long admired Zhuo Bufan from the bottom of their hearts. Chu Tian was even more in awe of Zhuo Bufan. He controlled the entire west side of the city. Even if he operated it well, his annual income could exceed 100 million. Now that Zhuo Bufan had sold two jade pendants for 100 million, how could he not be shocked?
The boss of the Jia Group wanted to get in touch with Chu Tian because of these two artifacts. Every experienced auction house wanted to make a name for themselves, so they had to auction off peerless treasures and sky-high prices. For example, internationally, Christie's, Peter Wolf, and Sotheby's had auctioned off many treasures and created auction records. That was how they were known around the world.
The boss of the Jia Group wanted to let Zhuo Bufan's items be auctioned off at the Jia Group in the future. That way, the profits that the Jia Group could reap would be far greater than if they were to take a cut.
Zhuo Bufan furrowed his brows. He did not want to reveal too many of the artifacts for the time being. If it attracted too much attention, it would not be a good thing. Moreover, if this kind of supernatural item was found out by the government, it would cause an even bigger uproar.
Right now, he did not have enough power to go against the entire world.
"Did you reveal anything about me to him?" Zhuo Bufan asked in a cold tone.
Chu Tian was so frightened that he quickly replied respectfully, "Without Mr. Zhuo's instructions, how would I dare say anything? I only said that I accidentally obtained the jade pendant. The boss of the Jia Group is also a smart man, so he will not get to the bottom of things."
"For the time being, you can get in touch with him, but you cannot reveal anything about me. As for the jade pendant for the auction, there is no more for now," Zhuo Bufan said thoughtfully.
In the future, he might need more money to purchase jade stones, medicinal herbs, spirit stones, natural treasures, and so on. Perhaps there would be a time when he needed to use the Jia Group's network, so he could not refuse people thousands of miles away.
"I understand, Mr. Zhuo." Chu Tian nodded solemnly.
What kind of person was Zhuo Bufan? In his eyes, he was like a god that had descended to the mortal world. How could he dare to go against Zhuo Bufan's words?
"Take the money and go to the Siberian ice fields or the Himalayas for me. Get someone to move the huge rocks buried under the snow mountains. Continue to buy medicinal herbs and jade stones for me with the rest of the money," Zhuo Bufan ordered.
"I will get someone to do it immediately." Chu Tian nodded. Although he did not know what Zhuo Bufan was planning and why he needed to move a few rocks from such a far place, he did not doubt Zhuo Bufan's words, so he could only do as he was told.
