"Why is Dugu Bo here?"
Yu Xiaowei was confused. Actually, he and the old man had only met once.
Although he took the opportunity to squeeze three kinds of medicinal plants, he didn't know which medicinal plants were worth gold and jade, and which were worth silver and iron. Thus, he simply made a deal with Dugu Bo, that the next time he went for treatment, he would pick the medicinal plants and chew them on the spot.
The transaction between the two parties was based entirely on mutual consent. There was no commercial fraud or debt collection.
But when a Titled Douluo came knocking on the door, he dared not to not open it.
After the box door opened, Yu Xiaowei blurted out while looking at the sparse-haired old man outside the door.
"Senior Laodong, what's wrong with your hair?"
"I also want to know. Ever since you took care of me, my hair falls out in groups every day. Even Yanyan started to hate me for being ugly."
Dugu Bo entered unhappily and sat on the sofa in a familiar manner. Ning Rongrong was so frightened that she immediately got up, hugged Yu Xiaowei's arm, and hid behind her.
"Nuclear radiation can indeed cause hair loss."
Yu Xiaowei explained with a smile, "But if you want to treat the poisoning problem, you have to accept nuclear radiation."
Ning Rongrong behind him poked him gently and asked in a low voice.
"Well, Brother Xiaowei, Grandpa Bone has been searching for the cause of his hair loss lately. Could it be you who did it?"
"."
Yu Xiaowei immediately changed the subject, "Senior Dugu, are you here to see me? Didn't we agree to do the treatment every seven days? Too much exposure to nuclear radiation is not good."
"That's not what I'm looking for from you."
Dugu Bo waved his hand, then raised his chin towards the soul bones on the auction table, "I'm looking for that."
Yu Xiaowei asked in surprise, "Senior, if you like it, just go ahead and bid. Why are you looking for the two of us, junior?"
"That."
Dugu Bo rubbed his hands awkwardly.
"Today, I happened to see a soul bone that was very suitable for Yanyan, and I happened to see you here. I also happened not to bring a lot of gold soul coins today."
"So you came to me to borrow money?" Yu Xiaowei asked back with a strange expression on her face.
Who would believe me if I told someone else that he was a Titled Douluo but he was so poor that he couldn't spend more than a million gold soul coins.
"That's right."
"I have no money. I came here just to watch today's fun."
"..."
Dugu Bo's old face turned red. It was already embarrassing enough to borrow money from a junior, and the key was that he hadn't borrowed it yet.
"But..."
Yu Xiaowei changed the subject and pondered for a moment, pretending to be mysterious.
"But what? Hurry up and tell me!!!"
Dugu Bo said anxiously.
Only the people of the Fire Leopard Sect and the Wind Sword Sect were still bidding downstairs, and both sides were considering more and more, which indicated that the bidding was about to end.
Now that he can't borrow money anymore, he has no chance to get this soul bone.
Yu Xiaowei stepped aside, revealing Ning Rongrong behind him in front of Dugu Bo.
"Look for her, she's rich!!!"
"Who is she...?" Dugu Bo asked in confusion.
"Before you knocked on the door, didn't you know who this box belonged to?"
"Doesn't this belong to your Yu family? I came here just because I saw you here."
"Hehe..."
Yu Xiaowei showed an expression as if he had expected it. Dugu Bo was a poisonous person, aloof and arrogant. He didn't get along with the rest of the extended family on weekdays. It is estimated that this is the first time he has come to the auction house.
"Ehem."
Yu Xiaowei cleared his throat and introduced,
"This is the jewel in the crown Ning Fengzhi, the leader of the Seven Treasure Plated Tile Sect, and the grandson of Sword Dou Chen Xin and Bone Dou Gu Rong. So, senior, you know who to look for, right?"
After saying so, he winked at Dugu Bo.
Looking at Ning Rongrong who was hiding behind Yu Xiaowei and looking at him carefully, Dugu Bo stroked his forehead and sighed.
He originally thought that the beautiful little girl next to Yu Xiaowei was also a descendant of the Yu family, but he did not expect that she was actually Ning Fengzhi's daughter. He was really embarrassed today.
"Well, my friend, I don't know if you can do it."
Dugu Bo stammered, his face flushed, and he wished that there was a crack in the ground so that he could crawl in.
Seeing his expression, Yu Xiaowei was already laughing out loud in his heart, but on the surface he walked over with a serious look.
"Senior, just tell me how much you need. I will make the decision for Rongrong."
"You?"
Dugu Bo looked at him suspiciously.
"Yes, don't you just want that soul bone? If not, I'll take a picture of it for you, and you can return it to me when the time comes."
"This..."
"Senior, don't hesitate, you see the host is ready to knock the gavel, it will be too late."
As Yu Xiaowei said, the Fire Leopard Sect has now offered 1.45 million gold soul coins, and the Wind Sword Sect has not responded for a long time. If they hesitated any longer, those soul bones would belong to the Fire Leopard Sect.
Dugu Boyi gritted his teeth and said firmly.
"Alright, help me take a picture of this soul bone. I'll pay you back in the future, no matter the price. This time, I owe you a favor. If you need help in the future, just come to me directly."
"Well done, senior. I like your temper."
Yu Xiaowei laughed, then clapped his right hand on Dugu Bo three times, then turned to Ning Rongrong and said proudly.
"Rongrong, give me your offer. 3 million gold soul coins. I wonder who dares to snatch that soul bone from me today."
The smile that had just appeared on Dugu Bo's face disappeared instantly. However, before he could stop it, Ning Rongrong had already pressed the bidding button.
"Yu Xiaowei!!!"
An angry roar echoed throughout the box.
...
The moment Ning Rongrong quoted the price of 3 million gold soul coins, the entire place went silent.
Even Lei Tianhe was shocked at the price.
Although this was a ten thousand year old soul bone, it was badly damaged. Its ideal price in that auction house was only 1.2 million gold soul coins. The fact that it sold for 1.45 million was already beyond their expectations.
But now, an exorbitant price of 3 million was quoted in Ning's family box.
In the private room of the Fire Leopard Sect, a middle-aged man with short flaming red hair shouted in frustration.
"Didn't you say that the Ning family only had a child come? Damn, who bid this price? Are the people in the Ning family crazy? They want to snatch this quality soul bone!!!"
A young man beside him asked, "Grandpa, do we still have to bid?"
"Nonsense, such a broken object costs 3 million gold soul coins, do you think our family is a gullible person?"
"Then, what if the one bidding is a child? Do they really have that much money?"
The middle-aged man sighed, "The auction house also has rules. If you bid, you have to pay. No matter if he has money now or not, the Seven Treasure Plated Tile Sect will pay for it."
"Forget it, forget it, this soul bone is destined to be beyond our reach."
...
Lei Tianhe also came to his senses and shouted quickly.
"The Treasure Seven-Plated Tile Sect is offering 3 million gold soul coins. Does anyone want to raise the price?"
"3 million gold soul coins for the first time, 3 million gold soul coins for the second time, and 3 million gold soul coins for the third time."
"Agreed. Congratulations to our honored guests from the Seven Treasure Plated Tile Sect. This ten thousand year old soul bone is now yours."
Inside the Ning family box.
Dugu Bo grabbed Yu Xiaowei by the collar and lifted her up while saying through gritted teeth.
"Little bastard, you tricked me."
Yu Xiaowei was not afraid at all and spread his hands.
"Senior, we both agree on this, this is a fair and reasonable transaction."
"I am waiting for you to return the 3 million gold soul coins, and your favor."
