56: Nine Dragon Sword

Arnold thought that once Qin Yun thought of the sapphires, he would be blinded by greed.

For something so vague, without witnessing it firsthand, he would recklessly bid a high price.

He didn't expect that although Qin Yun was young, he was very shrewd, not letting go until he saw the rabbit.

Only with such a cautious character could one go far on the path of a Treasure Hunter, and he was quite approving in his heart.

He predicted that the Eastern Kid might soon become a big shot in the treasure hunting world.

Julia was stunned when she heard Arnold's words.

She didn't understand the meaning; didn't Qin Yun bid because he guessed there would be sapphires in the warehouse?

How could this person say that Qin Yun had no intention of wanting it at all?

"Qin, is what he said true?"

Julia looked at Qin Yun with a puzzled expression, eager to know the answer as soon as possible.

Qin Yun smiled and nodded.

"If the warehouse were only twenty or thirty thousand, I might take a gamble on luck."

"But the price of three hundred thousand is too high. The illegal miners secretly extracting in the Lanca Mountains are all money-hungry. If there were really high-quality sapphires in the warehouse, they definitely wouldn't leave them there."

"I only bid to liven up the atmosphere; how could I really want to compete with that person?"

After saying this, Qin Yun returned to the sofa and leisurely took a sip of red wine.

He had indeed wanted to test everyone's financial strength and reactions earlier, but seeing that fat man raise the price on Brother Wu Ying's suggestion.

So he went along with the plan, tricking Brother Wu Ying and his boss out of a large sum.

Qin Yun judged that, given Brother Wu Ying's hatred for him, as long as he bid, Brother Wu Ying would definitely compete with him.

This would also deplete Brother Wu Ying's funds a bit; if he later saw a good warehouse, it could reduce some auction pressure.

Before giving the VIP card, Arnold had conducted a detailed investigation on Qin Yun.

He knew that Qin Yun had deep conflicts with Brother Wu Ying, and he saw that the warehouse wouldn't have much value was true.

But saying it was just to liven up the atmosphere was an excuse.

He judged that Qin Yun must have seen Brother Wu Ying and the fat man bidding, so he raised the price to deliberately trick them out of money.

He didn't point out Qin Yun's intention, just raised his glass in acknowledgment.

"Not bad, you're really good."

"Worthy of the person I've taken a liking to. So young yet with such insight, not fooled by the warehouse's hype, and coming up with a countermeasure in such a short time, conveniently tricking your opponent out of money."

"Truly a rare talent; I definitely didn't misjudge you this time."

Arnold's eyes were full of admiration; Qin Yun's wisdom exceeded his previous expectations.

He couldn't help but speak his mind.

Qin Yun and Julia were completely confused, not understanding what Arnold meant.

Could it be that this person had other intentions in finding Qin Yun?

"You flatter me; I'm not as amazing as you say."

"What did you invite me here for?"

After clinking glasses with Arnold, Qin Yun smiled modestly and directly asked the question on his mind.

Arnold drank his wine and didn't answer immediately.

He just showed a meaningful smile on his face.

"I'll tell you when the time comes."

"Knowing too early won't do you any good. Just know that there's a better opportunity waiting for you to seize. Whether you can seize it depends on your ability."

Arnold put down his glass and said earnestly.

Seeing Arnold say this, Qin Yun smiled and didn't ask further.

As long as he showed exceptional potential, there would always be people with good vision to invest in him.

He had the Profound Vision Treasure Eye and feared no one in Warehouse Auctions.

As long as there were valuable treasures in the warehouse, they would all be his in the end.

Julia was stunned on the side.

Was such a luxurious, high-spec auction just to assess Qin Yun?

What opportunity was Arnold talking about?

Could there be an even grander Warehouse Auction than this?

It seemed the waters of Warehouse Auctions ran deep; what was exposed to everyone before was just the tip of the iceberg.

She had a promising future by following Qin Yun on this path.

Julia really wanted to ask what opportunity it was, but seeing Qin Yun didn't pursue it, she didn't speak up.

She just knew that by staying by Qin Yun's side, she would definitely witness all kinds of exciting Warehouse Auctions!

Soon, the third warehouse was hoisted onto the stage by a crane.

Stimulated by the second warehouse, the atmosphere in the venue grew even more excited.

Treasure Hunters cheered, their eyes fixed unblinkingly on the screen.

According to the short film, this warehouse was previously located next to a blacksmith shop in the suburbs of Philadelphia.

The blacksmith shop had been abandoned for some time, the rooms full of dust and spiderwebs.

But the blacksmith shop looked large in area, with damaged furnaces, forging tables, and cooling pools that seemed very professional.

It seemed this blacksmith shop was quite large in scale.

This warehouse brought up should be the storage warehouse for the blacksmith shop.

What was inside were the weapons forged in the blacksmith shop from the video.

From the photos inside the warehouse, it could be seen that there were shields, swords, hammers, and other hand-forged ironware.

Seeing this, everyone began to speculate on the value of this warehouse.

The forged weapons inside were all crafts; since the photos weren't clear, the quality was unknown.

Who was the shop owner? Was he famous?

How much time had passed? Did the forged weapons have added value?

Smart people had already started searching for who the blacksmith shop owner was based on the clues.

If it was a master, the collection in the warehouse would be worth a lot of money.

Such a large-scale blacksmith shop was rare in a city.

Soon, knowledgeable Treasure Hunters from Philadelphia recognized whose blacksmith shop this was.

"This blacksmith shop belongs to the Harry Family; they've forged many sharp swords, and even Hollywood has custom-ordered weapons there."

As someone shouted this out, the Treasure Hunters in the venue immediately erupted.

With such a famous blacksmith shop owner, there must be good stuff inside.

If they found props from famous Hollywood movies, buying this warehouse would make them rich.

Even if there were no famous props inside, if the swords inside were all high-quality, they'd still be worth a lot of money.

Thinking of this, everyone was tempted.

Many started shouting, eager to participate in the Warehouse Auction.

Qin Yun, having seen the short film and the photos of the warehouse interior in the brochure, was also somewhat puzzled.

Was this warehouse worth using his Profound Vision Treasure Eye on?

At that moment, he heard exclamations coming from outside.

He knew that many people must have recognized the value of this warehouse.

So without further hesitation, he directly used the Profound Vision Treasure Eye!

The treasure light of the warehouse was blue in tone, but compared to the purple treasure light in the middle that soared upward, vaguely shaped like a flying dragon.

The previously dazzling blue treasure light lost its color, like white clouds, becoming an accent to the purple flying dragon.

Seeing this situation, Qin Yun was very shocked.

There was actually a collection of such high value inside.

And the purple treasure light actually had a shape; this was more magical than any treasure light he had seen before.

The more Qin Yun looked, the more alarmed he felt, sensing something familiar about this purple.

"Do you remember that Music Enthusiast? I got the Nine Dragons Sword Sheath from him. Do you remember where he said the sheath was discovered?"

Qin Yun hadn't seen many items with purple treasure light, so he quickly thought that the color and style of the treasure light were similar to the nine dragons precious sword's sheath, so he turned to ask Julia.

Julia blurted out the answer: "In Philadelphia."

Then she looked at Qin Yun with a shocked expression. Could the nine dragons precious sword be inside this warehouse?
