Poor family farming: the sick and weak scholar's wife is very sturdy

Chapter 222 The Leg Bone of the Divine Beast Qingluan

Lin Xiao wasn't angry either, instead his smile was even brighter:
"Oh, Mr. Chen, what are you talking about? I'm not blocking the way, but I'm welcoming you all!"

"Which onion are you? Are you qualified to welcome us?"

The son of the Chen family said disdainfully.

Lin Xiao continued to approach him with a smile, and lowered his voice:

"My lord, don't be annoyed, I'm just here to send a message."

Seeing Lin Xiao's serious appearance, that Mr. Chen frowned suspiciously, but still looked at Lin Xiao with disdain.

The other older young man beside him looked like he was watching the excitement, with an incomprehensible gleam in his eyes.

"I am following the order of the imperial concubine to tell you all, Mr. Chen, that the collections for today's auction are all"

Lin Xiao's voice was very low, as if he was afraid of alarming some people.

Her behavior made Zhao Qian and the sons of the Chen family curious, what the hell is this guy doing?

After listening to Lin Xiao's "instructions", the sons and brothers of the Chen family looked at each other and saw the same doubts in each other's eyes.

Are these collections really belonging to our ancestors?

"The imperial concubine said that the ancestor entrusted her with a dream, and asked her to do everything possible to take pictures of all the collections that will be auctioned today, and then enshrine them in the ancestral hall to show her filial piety!"

Seeing that several people were suspicious, Lin Xiao hurriedly added.

Ancestors and ancestral halls have been moved out, can there still be fakes?

The sons of the Chen family believed Lin Xiao's nonsense, and looked at her with friendly expressions.

She was secretly delighted, this auction will definitely blackmail them!
Not long after, the auction officially started.

As the host, Lin Xiao came on stage and opened the first auction item for today's auction.

It was a bronze animal bone, carved into a beast head, lifelike.

There are complicated patterns carved around it, which looks very old, but it reveals a strong flavor of vicissitudes and mystery.

"This animal bone looks ordinary, there is nothing unusual, and no other special features have been found. In my opinion, it is just an ordinary animal bone."

Before Lin Xiao started the introduction, he only heard whispers from the audience, most of which were questioning words.

Zhao Qian and Lin Xiao looked at each other. Zhao Qian had personally appraised this animal bone, and he did not find anything unusual.

The corners of Lin Xiao's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a treacherous smile, and she said with a smile:
"Everyone, do you see what this is?"

"This is a piece of animal bone, what's so strange about it!"

"Yeah, such an ordinary thing, I don't think it's even a treasure. You didn't use it to fool us!"

"I see that the baby in the palace is nothing more than this! It's quite similar to the wild boar bone I gnawed last night!"

……

Everyone was discussing in one go, accusing Lin Xiao at the same time.

Lin Xiao was not in a hurry, a cunning flashed in her eyes, then she slowly lifted up the animal bones, pointed at the crowd and said:
"Everyone, please read clearly, this is not an ordinary animal bone, but the leg bone of Qingluan, a divine beast from ancient times!"

Hearing Lin Xiao's words, everyone fell silent instantly.

They stared at the animal bones with wide eyes, for fear of missing every detail.

The whole body of the animal bone is crystal clear, like beautiful jade, but without losing the hard texture, it looks very beautiful.

"I'm not afraid to tell you that there was such a prophecy in ancient times that as long as you gather all the leg bones of the twelve divine beasts, you can summon the dragon and command the world!"

Lin Xiao continued to explain, the voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone present to hear clearly.

Immediately, the scene was silent.

Dragon!

This is an ancient legend. It is said that the dragon is one of the most powerful creatures in the God Realm. It is said that it can transform into a dragon and soar into the sky, soaring above the nine heavens, and is invincible in the world.

And the entire Great Xia Dynasty is the descendant of Shenlong, the descendant of Shenlong.

How can this kind of thing not shock people?
"Although this animal bone looks ordinary, its value is much more expensive than those so-called gold, silver and jade objects. As long as you invite it back and enshrine it in the ancestral hall, it will surely bless and enshrine prosperity for generations!"

Lin Xiao continued to inspire everyone.

When everyone heard the words, they all showed greed.

Prosperity for generations is what everyone dreams of, and no one wants to give up this opportunity.

Seeing that everyone's emotions were mobilized, the arc of Lin Xiao's mouth became wider and wider:

"Okay, now we start the auction. The leg bone of the divine beast Qingluan starts at 500 taels of silver, and the price increases by 50 taels of silver every time you bid."

Lin Xiao deliberately doubled the base price of the leg bones of the divine beast, which made the hearts of everyone present jump.

"550 taels!"

"600 taels!"

"650 taels!"

"700 taels!"

"..."

"1000 taels!"

With the sound of a voice, the bidding voices off the field gradually decreased, apparently frightened by the price.

"One thousand five hundred taels!"

Suddenly, a calm and magnetic male voice sounded, it was the sons and brothers of the Chen family shouting the price. When they were shouting the price, they even gave Lin Xiao who was on the stage a wink.

"2000 taels!"

A voice followed.

"Two thousand five hundred taels!"

"Two thousand five hundred taels!"

"."

Lin Xiao's eyes lit up, it was still those young masters Chen, they were competing with a man in a black robe and a black gauze hat.

When the price soared to 300 taels, the black-robed man finally gave up on continuing to increase the price, but stared at the young masters fiercely with angry eyes.

"Congratulations, Mr. Chen, for mentioning a leg bone of the mythical beast Qingluan!"

Lin Xiao congratulated with a smile, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his tone that was not easy to detect.

As soon as Lin Xiao finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted from the audience.

"It was a fluke to buy the leg bone of a divine beast for 300 taels, so we reluctantly accepted it!"

The older Mr. Chen had an unconcealable joy on his face. He looked at the man in black with no concealment of arrogance on his face.

Pay in one hand and deliver in one hand.

The older Mr. Chen took out a stack of large-amount banknotes from his arms and handed them to Lin Xiao, and then handed Lin Xiao the box containing the animal bones and carefully hugged it in his arms, looking like a baby.

"Thank you Mr. Chen, thank you all!"

Lin Xiao took the box with both hands, smiling like a flower.

Everyone's attention was on the animal bones, and no one noticed the mockery in Lin Xiao's eyes.

"Okay, move on to the next auction item!"

Following Lin Xiao's announcement, several court ladies came forward with mahogany trays, lifted the red cloth that covered them, and took out a simple short knife.

This short knife looks very old, with dense runes engraved on the handle, it looks outrageously old.
