Chapter 223: Chapter 223 The Black Heart is the Legacy of the Beidou Star Chapter 223: Chapter 223 The Black Heart is the Legacy of the Beidou Star “Since his mind was sick, whatever he wanted to do had nothing to do with .”
Qingwu originally thought Xuan Jing wanted to stir up the Warm Jade market just to make a fortune.
She didn’t expect that he was actually aiming for Beidou Star.
She couldn’t believe Xuan Jing went to great lengths to contact her just to get a discount from Beidou Star.
Since he claid to know the forr owner of Beidou Star, he wouldn’t lack ways to get a discount.
Using such an excuse to contact her could only an Xuan Jing was either talking nonsense or wasn’t familiar with that so-called owner at all!
Qingwu glanced at the calendar on her phone.
Next week was the ti for her to report to Beijing University.
Beidou Star had already found another part of the jade carving USB left by Lin Huazhen, which might be in Ye Qilan’s hands.
Qingwu always felt that the things her grandmother ntioned wanting to tell her should all be stored on that USB!
On stage, a new display platform appeared behind the auctioneer.
“The next auction item is a Fu Xi Zither handcrafted by the zither master Shi Yujiang; it is well known that Master Shi does not make Fu Xi Zithers. This is the only one! The only one in the world, starting at one million US Dollars.”
On the table was a simple and understated ancient zither.
Every structure was quite exquisite, with the thirteen markers adorned with warm jade that glead with lustrous light.
As soon as this zither appeared, almost everyone present was drawn to it.
To better showcase the items, the auction hall was illuminated from all angles, and all information was transmitted to the electronic screen in the private box.
Looking at this ancient zither, Qingwu was also very surprised!
She could tell at a glance that this zither was indeed a work of Master Shi Yujiang!
It even retained much of Master Shi Yujiang’s craftsmanship in making the zither, and the strings were well-preserved with slight wear.
It was apparent that the owner of this zither typically wouldn’t play it.
The scene was abuzz, and even the previously quiet private box beca noisy.
On the electronic screen in the box, the prices kept surging.
“Two million.”
“Two and a half million.”
“Three million.”
…
Master Shi Yujiang’s zithers always had a price but no market, and the few zithers circulated in the market had already been speculated to sky-high prices.
Not to ntion that this zither in front of them was the only Fu Xi Zither made by Shi Yujiang in the world!
Pei Jue slightly raised an eyebrow as he looked at Qingwu, who seed sowhat excited.
“Want to buy it?”
Qingwu pondered for a mont, “Since it’s my teacher’s item, no matter what, it should be brought back.”
Just as she was about to operate the electronic screen to follow and increase the bid, a sentence suddenly appeared on the screen.
[One million ans one million, I am Shi Yujiang.]
Upon seeing this ssage, the originally excited guests suddenly quieted down!
Those raising their prices quickly withdrew their bids!
Since Master Shi Yujiang had stated the price, they weren’t foolish enough to drive it up intentionally.
Although this zither was precious, it wasn’t as valuable as having Master Shi Yujiang present himself!
Watching the prices on the electronic screen being withdrawn, leaving only Shi Yujiang’s one million, Qingwu chuckled lightly!
Pei Jue seed to rember sothing, “The fiancée indeed shares the ntor-apprentice conduct with Master Shi.”
During the previous auction, Qingwu also directly revealed her identity to get the information.
Is this the characteristic of Beidou Star?
Qingwu shrugged indifferently.
“After all, the value of those items is laid out there; the people of Beidou Star are no fools.”
It wasn’t that they couldn’t afford it through the normal purchase procedure, but not adding money had a better cost-performance ratio!
With the principal present, the auction of the zither quickly concluded, sold for one million.
Qingwu also received a ssage on her phone.
[Qing girl, co to the backstage with to get the items later.]
[Okay.]
In such a setting, Master Shi Yujiang knew Qingwu would surely be there!
Qingwu looked back towards the stage.
“The next piece of news pertains to Warm Jade and is a public announcent. A family has discovered a very considerable yield of Warm Jade in the snowy mountains. The paid portion starts at ten thousand.”
The ssage was sowhat ambiguous.
It only ntioned the discovery of Warm Jade without specifying a location, leading those interested to think the paid portion should reveal the location.
Sure enough, many people were interested in this ssage.
Pei Jue turned to Qingwu beside him.
“Not interested?”
“Mm.”
It wasn’t that she was disinterested, but this ssage was likely released by Beidou Star…
After the auction concluded, Qingwu did receive a transaction notification from the auction house.
However, she was the supplier of the ssage.
Qingwu wasn’t surprised; after years of cooperation with Beidou Star, there was no need for prior discussion!
“Was this ssage put out by Beidou Star?”
“Mm, I checked, and the one who bought this ssage is a jade rchant in Beijing who specializes in Warm Jade business.”
However, that person happened to be one of Xuan Jing’s people.
The auction stage refreshed.
“The next ssage is a paid notice. A gentleman has commissioned us to find a way to access lta Prison, and if anyone has a way, they can quote a price directly.”
At the auction house, there were both sales and purchases, with many looking to acquire this kind of information.
Qingwu tapped on the electronic screen.
[Thirty million US Dollars.]
In another private box, Master Shi Yujiang laughed aloud as he saw the ssage on the screen.
He glanced at the person sitting beside him, “My little apprentice really has a black heart.”
“Haha, after all, this is the good child taught by you old folks.”
Master Shi Yujiang pretended not to understand the sarcasm in the man’s words and continued to chuckle.
“If it wasn’t for Lin Huazhen contacting back then, wanting Qing girl to learn so things with us, I wouldn’t have known that you all were still alive.”
“Even knowing doesn’t matter; Huazhen is no longer around.”
The person sitting next interlocked his hands and looked at Shi Yujiang with a slightly guarded posture.
“Even if you find , it’s useless; Ye Qilan is a madman, and I can’t persuade him!”
Back then, Ye Qilan insisted on starting the Beidou Star project despite opposition, all to train more super geniuses.
His plan was cruel, and countless people opposed it, including the person in front of Master Shi Yujiang.
“I’m not asking you to persuade him. He’s auctioning the ancient zither I gifted him back then, isn’t it clear that appealing to him through sentint doesn’t work?”
Since it’s like that, they were not planning on invoking sentint.
The person beside him sneered.
“I’d like to know if the girl knew she was sent to Beidou Star, which was agreed upon by you old folks and Lin Huazhen, what she would think.”
“A good child went through so much suffering, and it was all caused by you.”
“Won’t she hate you then?”
Master Shi Yujiang shook his head helplessly but with a fond smile on his face.
“Qing girl won’t; she’s the best child in the world!”
