Chapter 427: Chapter 427 Romance on the High Seas (3)
As Su Yanyi and Qin Jiran sipped on their drinks, they looked on but didn’t find anything particularly interesting. However, to avoid leaving empty-handed and to help her grandfather spend some money, Su Yanyi ended up acquiring two items as the auction was about to end.
One was a piece of Tang SanCai, which was quite beautiful. Although Su Yanyi didn’t know much about antiques, her grandfather enjoyed them. It was perfect as a gift, akin to presenting Buddha with borrowed flowers, especially since it was her grandfather’s money after all.
The second item was a black ancient sword, also an antique. It reminded Su Yanyi of Qin Jiran in a costume drama, armored and wielding a heavy sword, looking impressively like a great ancient general. On impulse, she spent over nine million US dollars on this black heavy sword of unknown origin. Originally, the sword’s starting price was only a million dollars—after all, even its era couldn’t be determined—but a customer, who appeared out of nowhere, kept bidding against Yanyi. In the end, she had to spend more than nine million to secure the sword.
"Do you like antiques?" Qin Jiran asked, puzzled, as he saw Yanyi buying these two items. In his memory, Yanyi never seemed interested in antiques.
"The Tang SanCai is for grandfather, and the heavy sword is for you," Su Yanyi said and then suddenly felt she was both filial and virtuous. She bought gifts for the elder and her husband, yet she bought nothing for herself.
"Why give me this sword?" Qin Jiran became even more baffled, finding Yanyi’s gifts to him more and more unusual.
"You holding it while wearing armor would definitely make you look like a grand general," Su Yanyi shared her thoughts.
"...Do you like role-playing?" Qin Jiran asked with a weird expression after some thought.
"..." That was Su Yanyi, at a loss for words.
The auction had now come to an end, and the sold items would be delivered to their respective private suites. As Su Yanyi and company made their way out, they saw Corey approaching again.
"Little sister Yanyi, so you’re also interested in ancient swords now?" Corey asked, somewhat curiously.
"Just for fun," Su Yanyi replied, giving Corey a glance before moving on.
Catching up, Corey directly stated his purpose, "Someone approached me, hoping to get in touch with the buyer of the ancient sword. They are willing to pay ten million to buy it from you. Hehe, isn’t that funny? They didn’t bid properly during the auction and now they want to involve me, the Young Master of the auction, to facilitate a deal. Not only are they making me earn less, but they’re also treating me like a fool."
Corey was somewhat baffled by the person’s intelligence. As the host of the auction, the last thing he wanted was for transactions of auctioned items to happen privately. Yet, this person insisted on seeking his help. If it weren’t for his father’s business partnership with this person, he would have wanted to throw the person into the ocean. Was earning money easy for him?
"Not selling." She bought it for her man, and she wouldn’t give it to anyone else.
"You wouldn’t sell it even for a quick profit of a million? Hehe, little sister Yanyi, if you like this kind of thing, should I keep an eye out for you in the future?" Corey didn’t quite understand the appeal of such items and hadn’t realized Su Yanyi liked them before.
