Chapter 340: Chapter 340: Her Mother’s Hairpin

’’If you have your own money to pay for it.’ That was what her husband said to her. Of course, she did not have any money for it. What was her husband thinking about?

After that little b*tch took everything, Han Yunru did not have much money in her hand. And there was no way that she would use the money that she saved for her daughter’s dowry. Her daughter needed to get married grandly. Not to mention, her daughter would be married into the royal family and become the crown princess.

The Frost Sword fell into Ye Family, Ye Rong. He was the revenue minister. The final price for the Frost Sword was 345,000 taels. It was much higher than the Fiery Sword.

The next sword that would be auctioned was the Earthquake Sword. It was the moment that Liu Wang had been waiting for. He had an earth element attribute. So, the sword was a perfect weapon for him.

However, Liu Wang did not bid for the sword so quickly. He knew there was no point in competing too early. He waited until there were not many bidders left.

"300,000 taels." Liu Wang shouted.

The moment Liu Wang shouted; people looked at the private room because the voice was coming from the private room. People who met Liu Wang before knew his voice.

Some of them backed out immediately. They did not dare to fight with the royal family. However, some of them did not care much about the royal family. They continued to bid.

"310,000 taels." Someone countered Liu Wang’s price.

"315,000 taels."

Liu Wang was determined to get the sword. "350,000 taels."

Everyone was stunned. Liu Wang had so much money in his hand. It seemed no one could bid more than this.

"350,000 once.... 350,000 twice.... 350,000 final. The Earthquake Sword is sold for 350,000 taels. Congratulations to the winner." Mo Yuemo shouted.

Liu Wang was so happy that he finally got the sword that he wanted.

"Hmm... who won the sword?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"Hmm... I think it is the second prince." Bai Xiang said.

"Oh, him." Bai Xifeng knew him.

"You met him?" Bai Xiang asked.

"Hmm... I met him once. He was talking nonsense. So, I left." Bai Xifeng said.

"Good. The next time, you see him, ignore him." Bai Tingfeng said.

Bai Xiang also agreed with Bai Tingfeng’s words. Liu Wang was sly like a fox.

"Don’t worry, Father, Brother. I will listen to your words." Bai Xifeng said. "I never thought that a prince could have so much money."

"He probably had opened some businesses." Bai Xiang scoffed.

Lastly, the Storm-Forged Sword was to be auctioned. The fight for this sword was much fiercer compared to the other swords. Because it reached a price much higher than the Earthquake Sword.

"355,000 taels."

"360,000 taels."

"370,000 taels."

The last person who bid was from the Su Family. Su Patriarch received the message from his son, Su Jan Ying that the second prince told him to bid for the Storm-Forged Sword. The second prince would lend the money to the Su Family.

Since no one bid higher than the last price, the Su Patriarch won the bid.

Bai Xifeng calculated the money that she would get from the sword sale. She gained around a million taels from the sale. It was not too bad.

The next item to be auctioned was the Cell Muscle Repair Elixir.

"This elixir can repair everything in your body. If you lost your arm, you could use it and your arm could grow back." Mo Yuemo said.

"Does the elixir work as you mentioned?" Someone asked.

"Of course, we also obtained the good item." Mo Yuemo stated proudly. Seeing the audience finally interested in the elixir, she continued. "The price starts at 100,000 taels. The bid opens now."

Everyone started to bid. The price increased to 198,000 taels. Then someone shouted 200,000 taels. This person was from the Pharmacist Association, Sun Zhengzhong.

He was interested in getting this elixir. He wanted to research the elixir. Everyone stopped bidding after that.

Well, no one wants to offend the Pharmacists Association. If they got injured, they would be happy to get help from the Pharmacists Association. So, the elixir went to Sun Zhengzhong.

The servant pushed out the next item. When Bai Xiang saw the item, he became agitated. Bai Tingfeng and Bai Xifeng noticed the change in Bai Xiang.

"Father, what is going on?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"That... That... That is your mother thing." Bai Xiang trembled.

Bai Tingfeng and Bai Xifeng looked at the item which going to be auctioned next. It was a female hairpin.

It was a pink jade hairpin. It had a pink flower with a white bead in the middle.

"How could it reach Shanghai Pavilion?" Bai Tingfeng asked.

"Did the Bai Family sell it?" Bai Xifeng guessed.

"No. Your mother keeps it close to her. Not many know that she has this hairpin." Bai Xiang clenched his fist.

"Meaning Mother lost it." Bai Tingfeng said.

"Probably. After being attacked by those people, she probably dropped it by accident." Bai Xiang said.

Liu Longwei who listened to this conversation gained a new understanding. Bai Xiang’s wife, his soon-to-be mother-in-law, had been attacked by some people.

And even Bai Xiang who was known as the stronger man could not fight with those people. Liu Longwei became interested to know about these people.
