However, Qin Yi still didn't seem to understand Zhong Yun's meaning.
He pondered for a moment and then said, "In that case, you can set a standard for me according to the highest standard."
Zhong Yun frowned, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and his voice also seemed a little indifferent as he said, "Your Excellency's actions are somewhat against the rules. I have to say, I can't see the slightest sincerity from Your Excellency. "
Qin Yi chuckled and said, "Of course I have sincerity. Otherwise, why would this old man choose you only when you are not the only auction house in this city? "
"Since Your Excellency has sincerity, then you should do things according to our rules."
Qin Yi shook his head and said with a smile, "Since I have sincerity, shouldn't you also show some sincerity? I am like this, I must first negotiate the conditions, then I will show my sincerity. "
Qin Yi turned from guest to host, his resolute attitude had completely made Zhong Yun lose his temper.
At the moment, Zhong Yun could only say, "Since Your Excellency is so insistent, then I will first talk about our rules. However, if Your Excellency's sincerity is not enough, then don't blame our Zhongyu Auction House for being unreasonable. "
It could be seen that Zhong Yun was already a little angry in his heart. If it wasn't for the fact that he really had no reason to do so, he would have directly taught Qin Yi and the others a lesson, and then directly thrown them out.
Qin Yi shrugged, a confident smile on his old face.
Zhong Yun saw Qin Yi's attitude, and the anger in his heart deepened a bit, but he still patiently said, "According to the rules, after the auction of the top treasures, we need to take a 20% commission. If Your Excellency needs us to help raise the price, then we need to take a 40% commission. "
Qin Yi chuckled and said, "What, your auction house also does this kind of trick?"
Zhong Yun chuckled, but did not speak.
The so-called raising the price was to find someone in his own auction house in the auction house, which was the so-called shill. He wanted them to interfere in the bidding and raise the price.
Of course, there was a certain risk in doing so. If someone found out, then it was very likely that the transaction would not be completed.
However, generally speaking, if they really met someone who needed it, even if they knew that someone was deliberately raising the price, they might not be willing to let go.
Zhong Yun's words were very clear. If Qin Yi really needed this kind of service, then the commission would have to be doubled!
This was a method where risks and benefits coexisted. To be honest, some people might choose this path when they were driven by huge benefits.
Moreover, neither side would act shamelessly when it came to this kind of under-the-table manipulation.
After all, if this matter were to spread out, it would not be good for anyone.
Zhong Yun looked at Qin Yi and said, "How is it, do you need our help?"
Qin Yi shook his head with a smile and said, "No need. I have a pretty good idea of how much my stuff can fetch. "
Those who were confident in their treasures would not think of doing such things. After all, no one would be willing to pay double the commission to the auction house for no reason.
Qin Yi refused this proposal, but Zhong Yun was not angry. He looked at Qin Yi and said, "Now, this Zhong has explained the rules of my auction house clearly. If you have no objections, please take out your things as soon as possible. This Zhong's time is limited, and the auction will start in more than an hour. "
"Wait." Qin Yi said with a smile, "I have another condition."
Zhong Yun frowned. Obviously, his patience was about to reach its limit.
Qin Yi didn't seem to see the other party's angry look, and said with a smile, "My things will be auctioned in this auction."
"How can this be?" Zhong Yun didn't even think about it, and decisively refused: "This time, we have already arranged the things to be auctioned. Won't it mess up all our plans if we have one more thing for no reason? "
Each auction item had its own order of appearance. And this order was undoubtedly arranged according to the value of the treasures.
Qin Yi's things had not been taken out yet, and the value had not been appraised. The order of appearance and the introduction of the treasures had not been prepared.
Now, suddenly, he wanted to put it in this auction. It was like adding another piece of ice to an already frozen block of ice. The haste would only cause the whole ice to shatter.
Qin Yi shook his head calmly and said, "Whether you want to add it or not, wait until you see it."
After saying this, he took out a dark green longsword from his storage ring.
The long sword seemed to be cast from warm jade, looking simple and unadorned. The sword body was as thin as a cicada's wing, showing a transparent color.
The body of the Liuhe gave people a very warm feeling, as if this sword had life and body temperature, as docile as a pet. However, the sword tip made people shudder, as if they had fallen into a thousand-year cold pool. Their whole body seemed to be out of control, waiting for the sword to come forward and reap their lives.
"This sword?"
At the first sight of the sword in Qin Yi's hand, Zhong Hua couldn't help but widen his eyes. He could no longer look away. "I've been in the auction house for many years, and I've handled countless treasures. No matter what treasure it is, I can see its value at a glance. But why can't I even distinguish the material of this sword? "
Unconsciously, Zhong Hua's mind was filled with the scene of himself holding the sword in Qin Yi's hand and cutting down everything in the world.
This sword seemed to have infinite magic power. With just a glance, he wanted to take it for himself.
Fortunately, after Qin Yi took it out and showed it to Zhong Hua, he put it away. Otherwise, with this thing in front of him, Zhong Hua was afraid that he would not even have the basic ability to think.
"Elder Zhong, I asked you before if you could make the decision."
Qin Yi looked at Zhong Hua with a faint smile and said unhurriedly, "Now, I still have to ask you, can you make the decision? Can you let the sword I just took out participate in this auction? "
Zhong Hua finally came to his senses, and the way he looked at Qin Yi gradually became a little different.
Obviously, he now knew that Qin Yi was a person with a real treasure. Moreover, the value of the treasure in his hand was absolutely amazing!
"If it's an ordinary auction, I naturally have the right to decide directly."
