107: Chapter 107 Consumer Frenzy!
He took Xue Shuangshuang by the hand and began sweeping through the latest seasonal handbags one by one.
Finally, under the extremely dazed gaze of the saleswoman, he swiped his card and settled the bill cleanly and efficiently.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations to the host for triggering a Consumption Critical Hit!]
[Detected that you have just spent 7.8 million on a woman!]
[The system has specially granted you a 100-fold cashback, 780 million!]
[Note: This Consumption Critical Hit is a hidden reward for the Auction task. Please strive to complete the Auction task, host!]
"Brother System, it really has to be you. You've given me such a big surprise again without a sound!"
Shen Zhou almost let out a sound.
He originally thought that Brother System would just give him a few times cashback, but he didn't expect such a sudden, massive payout.
"Brother System, don't worry, I will definitely teach that little Japanese guy a lesson tonight!"
After a fierce shopping spree, Shen Zhou and she had just walked out of the luxury store when they discovered it was already late.
"Ah, is it already this late? I thought only a little while had passed."
Even Shen Zhou was a bit surprised.
"Yeah, honey, I also feel like time flew by. We need to hurry to the Auction, or we'll be late."
Xue Shuangshuang was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted.
The shopping process was simply too wonderful, making her even forget the passage of time.
"Don't worry, I already had Old Liu contact the Auction."
"The items I want are placed at the end of the Auction, so it's not too late for us to browse a bit more."
Shen Zhou chuckled, unconcerned, and continued to stroll around with Xue Shuangshuang for a while.
They casually found a restaurant to finish their dinner.
...
Inside the Sugade Auction House.
The atmosphere in the venue was becoming increasingly heated.
"Kuroda Yūjin, you did well. It seems that Chinese guy won't be able to come tonight."
"Now we have one less strong competitor!"
When Kameda Nagayasu looked around and still didn't see Shen Zhou and his companion, he looked very excited.
"Don't worry, Mr. Kameda, that guy can't possibly come tonight, and you will definitely bid on the items you desire!"
Kuroda Yūjin puffed out his chest; even he hadn't expected things to go so smoothly.
It seems that I will be even more valued by Mr. Kameda in the future!
Thinking about his future days of soaring success, this guy immediately became even more excited.
As the Auction continued, Kameda Nagayasu made aggressive moves, successively winning several items he had his eye on.
Of course, because the prices of these items were not high, he was just making casual moves to get a good start.
Just when he thought tonight would be his show, Shen Zhou brought Xue Shuangshuang, swaggering in through the specially opened doors of the Auction.
In an instant, Kameda Nagayasu's face turned iron-blue, as if he had swallowed countless flies in a second.
He couldn't figure out what was going on at all.
Shen Zhou just glanced at this guy indifferently and sat down in his seat very naturally.
Now it was his turn to settle the score with this little Japanese guy!
"Baka, Kuroda Yūjin, what the hell is going on? Is this what you called foolproof?"
Kameda Nagayasu turned around fiercely and grabbed Kuroda Yūjin by the collar.
If it weren't for being in the venue, he would have already been unable to resist slapping him.
"That's impossible, I already gave him laxatives, he shouldn't even be able to leave the house!"
Kuroda Yūjin was a bit dazed.
This was not the first time he had used that kind of powerful laxative.
Logically speaking, it was impossible for any human to withstand that kind of extremely terrifying laxative.
"Are you asking me? Open your dog eyes and look for yourself, this damn Chinese guy is completely fine. How exactly did you handle this!"
Kameda Nagayasu was so angry his heart was about to explode.
He didn't expect that this idiot Kuroda hadn't done his job well and even dared to brag in front of him.
Shen Zhou, who was not far away, vaguely heard the two arguing, but he couldn't understand what those two guys were saying at all.
Shen Zhou's sudden entry attracted the attention of many people in the venue.
Even the foreign Auctioneer on the high platform cast a glance of attention.
The few items subsequently brought onto the Auction stage could not attract Shen Zhou's attention at all.
It wasn't until another item with Chinese characteristics appeared that Shen Zhou's eyes lit up.
"The next item up for Auction is an ancient Chinese treasure, which comes from the Tang Dynasty of China: the Tang Sancai Phoenix-Headed Ewer with Applique Floral Patterns!"
The foreigner examined the Tang Sancai in front of him with great interest.
"Everyone, please look, this phoenix-headed ewer is very well preserved, and the exterior painting is particularly distinctive."
"Furthermore, the phoenix generally represents the supreme position among the female population..."
"Without further ado, the starting price for this treasure is one million Euros!"
Accompanied by the foreigner's high-pitched voice, the sound of bidding was incessant.
"One million and ten thousand!"
"One million and fifty thousand!"
"I bid 1.2 million. I'm determined to have this item; I'm going to use it to drink water!"
The one speaking was Kameda Nagayasu.
The market price for Tang Sancai is generally within 1.5 million.
Therefore, after the Auction price approached the top of the market price, many people's bidding became cautious.
"This is a treasure that belongs to our China. Is it your turn to use it?"
"I bid 1.5 million!"
Shen Zhou didn't hesitate to push the price to the ceiling.
"Is it up to you to decide whether I can use it or not? I bid 1.55 million!"
Kameda Nagayasu glared fiercely at Shen Zhou, his tone full of anger.
Of course, he knew that the price he bid had already exceeded the normal market price.
But he just wanted to vent his anger for a moment.
"Pah, Japanese people just can't make it to the big stage. You had such an imposing manner, but in the end, you only added 50,000."
"I bid two million for this item. If you have the ability, keep bidding against me!"
"If you don't add more, you're my grandson!"
Shen Zhou fired back without any courtesy.
Anyway, he didn't want this item for collection, so the final transaction price didn't matter to him at all.
Anyway, he would eventually be able to recover the cost.
What does this little Japanese guy have to compete with him!
"Madman, you are definitely a madman!"
"I can't be bothered to argue with a guy like you!"
Kameda Nagayasu was even angrier.
It was clearly an item not worth that much money, but just because of spite, he had wasted millions in an instant.
He really couldn't understand what this Chinese guy was thinking.
"Mr. Shen bids two million Euros. Is there any higher bid?"
"Two million going once, two million going twice... Sold!"
As the foreign Auctioneer brought down the hammer, the item belonged to Shen Zhou.
There was simply no one competing against the imposing Shen Zhou.
And the foreigner on the stage was already beaming with joy.
No Auction would ever refuse a big spender like Shen Zhou.
"Alright everyone, the next item on stage will be the finale treasure of this Auction, and it also comes from China."
"It is the Yuan Dynasty Blue and White Porcelain Jar depicting Guiguzi Descending the Mountain from China!"
Clatter! As soon as the words fell, the foreigner pulled off the red cloth covering the Auction item.
