Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Chapter 167 Selling Things

Xu Yao then happily placed a treasure in front of the appraiser.

Then Xu Yaocai said to the appraiser, "I won't waste any more words, now show me."

"How much is this thing worth? And I also want to know if you've ever seen anything good before?" Xu Yao asked directly.

The appraiser was completely dumbfounded by what Xu Yao presented.

This is really hard to say now. That's the problem. After all, the appraiser isn't stupid.

It's clear from this incident that the treasure Xu Yao possesses is truly a valuable item.

However, there is now a problem: although the item in Xu Yao's possession is valuable, even the appraiser himself dares not act recklessly.

After a careful examination, the appraiser politely said, "It seems I was mistaken after all."

"Please come into the auction house, gentlemen. I will arrange a private room for you to conduct the appraisal and auction."

"This time, we also hope that the three of you can bring out more good items. Our auction house's appraisers and auctioneers are all very professional."

"I will definitely ensure that the three of you get a price that satisfies you," the auctioneer said.

Seeing the auctioneer's obsequious expression, Xu Yao smiled and said, "This is easy to discuss."

"But as for my darling..."

Before Xu Yao could finish speaking, Su Chen felt Du Gong lightly touch his arm.

"What?" Su Chen looked at Du Gong with some surprise.

Du Gong then said to Xu Yao, "That woman."

Xu Yao then turned his head to look, and it turned out to be the woman who had been chasing them earlier.

Now Xu Yao knew what it meant for a persistent ghost to haunt him; there was really nothing he could do about it.

But here's the problem: there's really no way to resolve this if something really goes wrong.

That would be the best outcome, but that's the problem. Putting everything else aside, this is at least one thing that's clear.

It seems this woman really wants to get something of her own from this auction house.

If that's the case, then what else is there to say?

Xu Yao then said to Du Gong and the others, "Don't worry, we are honored guests now, and we haven't figured out what's going on yet."

"Once we've figured things out, we can talk about other things. For now, let's go see the place the appraiser arranged for us."

Because of Xu Yao's assurance, the two brothers naturally had no other concerns.

Sure enough, after Su Chen led his two brothers and followed the appraiser to the center of the venue.

At this moment, the woman also saw Xu Yao and the other two.

Then, the woman walked over, and it was clear that the appraiser was also very respectful to Xu Yao and the others.

The woman secretly rejoiced that she hadn't offended Xu Yao before.

Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't have gotten this treasure this time.

At this moment, the woman said to the appraiser, "Appraiser, does Mr. Xu Yao have something good to auction?"

The appraiser then exclaimed excitedly, "Madam, the treasure Mr. Xu Yao is selling is an ancient artifact!"

"What!" The woman secretly rejoiced that she hadn't offended Xu Yao before, otherwise, how would this ancient artifact have ended up in her hands?

Xu Yao then took out a small bell and said to the woman, "This is a magic bell."

"This divine bell is a treasure from ancient times, and ordinary people have no chance to obtain it. And that's the problem we're facing now."

"I know this magic bell is a very good thing, but I just don't want it now."

"So I'm selling it here at the auction house. If you want it, I'll have the appraiser find someone to offer me a price," Xu Yao said.

In reality, this so-called divine bell is nothing special, at least from Xu Yao's perspective.

Since entering the cave of the ancient powerful beings, Xu Yao has made his fortune along the way.

Any treasure he casually throws out is astonishing.

But right now, there's really no other way to deal with this, if it were someone else...

Then there's no need to elaborate; that's the situation right now. If it were anything else...

Without further ado, the woman quickly said, "I want this."

"If you're willing, then Mr. Xu Yao, please sell it to me. I really want to get my hands on this divine bell."

Seeing how much the woman wanted it, Xu Yao thought to himself, "It doesn't matter who I sell it to."

This woman looks very wealthy, so why not sell it to her and make a little more money?

Thinking of this, Xu Yao nodded: "No problem, I can sell this to you, so, appraiser."

"How much do you think I can sell this magic bell for?" Xu Yao asked.

The appraiser then looked at Sang Zai and solemnly said, "As an appraiser at an auction house, I have my own professional ethics."

"If this magic bell is to be sold, the buyer will need to pay at least one billion."

"A price below this is absolutely unacceptable, but a price above 1.5 billion is also unacceptable," the appraiser said.

That's the power of auction houses, and it's true in this matter as well. In addition to verifying the authenticity of the items, appraisers also need to...

You also need to provide both the high price and the low price of the item; only in this way can you gain their trust.

This prevents buyers or sellers from being scammed, otherwise many issues would arise from this.

Xu Yao nodded at this point: "The price you offered is reasonable. As expected of a well-known auction house, you are indeed professional."

"Alright then, I won't say any more. Since you already know, how about this: 1.2 billion Yueyuehong?"

After hearing Xu Yao's words, the woman said directly, "Okay, twelve billion it is, deal."

Xu Yao thus obtained the 1.2 billion yuan in funding without any problems.

After paying the auction house's commission and the appraiser's kickbacks, approximately 1.15 billion yuan ended up in Xu Yao's hands.

Honestly, this auction house really takes a lot of money, but considering that he had 1.15 billion, Xu Yao was quite happy.

Having something is always better than having nothing.

Then, Xu Yao and his two brothers went to the auction house and sold off many of the things they had plundered.
