Chapter 341: Chapter 341: Bid For Her Mother’s Hairpin

Liu Longwei would ask Hou Tingguang to investigate the matter. His wife might want to know about that matter as well.

"How does this hairpin get here?" Bai Xiang was still confused about the matter.

"Let’s put the matter behind us. We need to get the hairpin first." Bai Xifeng said.

"Yes." Bai Tingfeng nodded.

Since it was their mother’s thing, they would try to get it. Their father would like that too.

"This hairpin is made up from a of pink jade which is very rare. Its craft is also very unique." Mo Yuemo said. "You can give to the person that you like as a gift. A woman will like this kind of hairpin." She added.

The reactions were not too bad. Many women looked interested in the hairpin.

"The starting price of the hairpin is 30,000 taels. The bid starts now." Mo Yuemo said.

At first, people seemed to hesitate until they heard someone shout the price.

"30,001 taels."

It came from the same girl who bought the useless book earlier. It seemed the girl also wanted to have the hairpin.

"31,000 taels."

"31,500 taels."

"32,000 taels."

"33,000 taels."

People started to bid for that. Bai Xifeng who watched this clicked her tongue. The thing that she wanted would be hers.

"33,001 taels." Bai Xifeng shouted.

"33,500 taels."

"33,501 taels." Bai Xifeng countered the number adding one taels.

"35,000 taels."

"35,001 taels."

"36,000 taels."

"36,001 taels."

Some people thought that this person was trying to increase the price of the Shanghai Pavilion. This method was used for the unworthy items.

She probably used the same method for the book. However, no one wanted the book and the tactic failed.

This time, it seemed successful because some people wanted the hairpin.

"This lady, you should not be playing like that. If you want to bid, you need to bid properly." Someone shouted.

Bai Xifeng tilted her head. ’What does he mean by that? I did bid properly though. What’s wrong about that?’

"Yeah. Why do you only add one tael?" Another one shouted again.

"What? Can’t I?" Bai Xifeng turned her head to her father and brother.

"They are just jealous. There is nothing wrong with that." Bai Tingfeng said.

What his little sister said goes.

"37,000 taels." Another one placed his bid.

"Young Lady, if you want the hairpin, you should convince others that you want it. Don’t play with the price by adding just one tael." Someone shouted again reminding Bai Xifeng.

Bai Xifeng chuckled. So, she just needed to show it. Well, then. She would show it.

"50,000 taels, then." Bai Xifeng shouted.

Everyone was stunned. 50,000 taels just for a hairpin. Who was this young lady? How could she be wilful like that?

"50,000 taels once..." Mo Yuemo started counting.

"55,000 taels." A woman shouted.

She was from the Ye Family. A concubine of Ye Rang the revenue minister.

"90,000 taels." Bai Xifeng shouted again.

Everyone exclaimed. This young lady really dares to bid such an amount of money. Which family does she come from?

This time, no one dared to bid. The concubine from the Ye family still wanted to bid against this young lady. However, Patriarch Ye glanced giving a warning to the concubine.

"90,000 taels once... 90,000 taels twice... 90,000 taels final. Congratulations, Young Lady, you won this hairpin." Mo Yuemo announced.

"Xixi...you... You don’t have to bid that much." Bai Xiang sighed.

"Well, I plan to do so but everyone forced me." Bai Xifeng smiled.

Not long after that, the servant came over and brought the hairpin. Bai Xifeng made the payment. The servant handed over the hairpin.

Bai Xifeng gave the hairpin to her father.

"Father, take a look. Is it truly Mother’s?" Bai Xifeng said.

With trembling hands, Bai Xiang took the hairpin. No need to inspect more. He really knew it was his wife’s hairpin.

He really did not know where his wife was right now. He was determined to get back his wife. He would cultivate more and more to get stronger and would break through. He would repay everything to the people who separated his wife from her family.

The auction was still going on. And it was the last item. The item that kept people waiting. That was the breakthrough pills.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting. Here comes our main item for tonight’s auction, the breakthrough pill. This pill will help the cultivator High-Rank Congealing Channels Realm to break through into Cold Core Realm. If the Low-Rank Congealing Channels Realm cultivator eats this pill, he might increase this strength to the High-Rank Congealing Channels Realm cultivator. " Mo Yuemo said.

Everyone was very excited to hear that. They had been waiting for this moment.

"We had about 10 pills here. The Alchemist told us that to ensure success, a person needs to consume at least two pills. The starting price for one pill is 200,000 taels. And the bid starts now.

So, the battle began. People started to fight the price. It was a very fierce battle.

Bai Xifeng yawned. She was not interested in the battle.

"Wifey, eat this. It is tasty." Liu Longwei said while picking up the pastries with his hand.

Bai Xifeng opened her mouth and bit the pastry. Her tongue touched Liu Longwei’s finger. Liu Longwei felt the softness.
