Chapter 221 Golden Eyes and Snow Fangs
Lion head, long mane, jade scales all over the body.
A pair of animal eyes reflected brilliant light under the candlelight, like flowing hot magma.
Although the beast is dead, its power is still there.
As Zhu Bingcan unveiled the black curtain, suppressed exclamations rang out in the venue.
Compared with the invitation system of the second level, the first-level bidders are much lower in vision and strength. Facing the beasts directly, the power they can feel is also stronger.
Liang Qu couldn't help but stand up straight.
Since the meat pie sent by Uncle Chen, how long has it been since he felt hungry and had an indescribable desire for a certain food?
He never thought that today he would feel it on a big monster.
He turned his head to look at several senior brothers, and they didn't react much. Was it because of him?
Zhu Bingcan's voice was like a bell. He grabbed the mane of the golden-eyed beast and grabbed its head to better show it to the bidders in the second-level box.
"As we all know, the Jade Water Golden Eyed Beast can be driven to the sky and the sea, and it can achieve everything. Its eyes are as bright as the sun, and it can distinguish between loyalty and treachery, break illusions, and keep the truth from the false.
This golden eyed beast was found in the middle reaches of the Jianghuai River. Although it is not as good as its superior Jade Water Golden Eyed Beast, and its strength is only that of a great monster, its golden eyes are also a good resource for practicing pupil skills.
This auction item is a pair of golden eyes of the golden eyed beast, which have not been cut out, and the essence has not been dispersed. The starting price is 800 taels! Each bid must not be less than 100 taels!"
Practicing pupil skills?
Liang Qu is eager for that pair of golden eyes!
Starting from this, he suddenly thought of the marmoset, and then thought of Wuzhiqi.
Green body and white head, golden eyes and snow teeth, infinite strength!
Wuzhiqi's infinite strength is reflected in his body, which is a natural martial bone, with tendons as big as a dragon and bones as strong as a tiger.
Could it be that the golden eyes are also a special ability?
Liang Qu's mind was storming, and he associated many things in an instant.
Xun Geer said that Monkey King’s original form was Wuzhiqi, and Monkey King also had fiery eyes and golden pupils, which were Wuzhiqi’s golden eyes…
The word Qu originally meant “hawks staring with alert eyes”, and 銍 meant “hawks perched on the hunter’s hand, with sharp and alert eyes, ready to hunt”.
犍 plus 犭 is 玃.
玃 means monkey!
Liang Qu roughly understood why he was so eager for the eyes of the golden-eyed beast, which might be of great use!
“Nine hundred taels!”
“Nine hundred taels at a time…”
“One thousand two hundred taels!”
“Okay, Mr. No. 96 bid one thousand two hundred taels!”
“One thousand three hundred taels!”
Liang Qu raised his sign and shouted.
“Okay, Mr. No. 78 bid one thousand three hundred taels, is there a higher price?”
The people in the same box cast puzzled eyes.
Xiang Changsong asked: “Brother, why are you bidding for this thing? Are you practicing pupil skills?”
Liang Qu couldn’t answer.
He couldn't make up a story that he had a pupil technique. What if his senior brothers asked for it?
It wasn't that he didn't want to give it, it was because he was embarrassed to give it. He couldn't even give it, so he could only be vague.
"I have a use for it."
Yang Dongxiong didn't ask much, just said: "Did you bring enough money?"
"Master, don't worry, it should be enough."
"If not, ask."
"Yes."
Yang Dongxiong didn't say anything more.
Liang Qu touched the silver note on his chest.
The starting price alone was all his family assets. With only 900 taels of silver notes and 50 taels of cash, it was impossible to bid for the pair of golden eyes, unless he borrowed money from his master and senior brothers.
But...
Liang Qu touched another pocket.
The mermaid tears were in it.
Tianbo Chamber of Commerce has pawnshops, especially at auctions, which is convenient for bidders to cash out.
Selling the mermaid tears should get 2,000 taels, right?
It's a pity that I didn't get a bargain.
Why can others pick up inconspicuous treasures when they go to auctions, but when he participates, he gets good things that everyone wants?
But it is true. Unless it is a blind box auction, the things that can be auctioned must have been appraised by masters from all walks of life. How can others pick up leaks?
"One thousand five hundred taels! One thousand seven hundred taels, two thousand taels! Is there a higher price?"
Zhu Bingcan's voice was full of temptation, and he kept manipulating the head of the golden-eyed beast.
"Two thousand three hundred taels!"
The price trend was getting higher and higher, and Liang Qu's heart was bleeding.

Eyes are so fragile, and the practice of pupil skills is even more difficult.
There won't be too many people who need it, which means there will be fewer bidders, but the disadvantage is that if someone really needs it, they will definitely not let it go easily!
"Three thousand five hundred taels!"
"Three thousand six hundred taels!"
Liang Qu gritted his teeth and added another hundred.
The golden eyes of the golden-eyed beast are the eighth lot. According to the trend, this price is basically the end, and it will be a loss if it goes up.
Sure enough, the bid was raised to 3,600 taels. The other bidders hesitated for a while and did not raise the price again.
Although the treasure is good, wait a while, there may be better ones.
Zhu Bingcan shouted three times and made the final decision.
"Congratulations to Lord No. 78 for winning the eighth lot, the eyes of the golden-eyed beast!"
Liang Qu breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiang Changsong was amazed: "I can't tell, where did you get so much money, junior brother?"
"It's not certain whether I have it or not." Liang Qu took out the mermaid tears and shook them in front of several senior brothers. Under everyone's curious eyes, he quickly came to the door.
"Sir."
The male waiter on standby bowed slightly.
"I want to pawn something."
"What kind of treasure do you want to pawn?"
A porcelain appraiser cannot identify jewelry.
A master of elixir cannot identify porcelain.
So the waiter asked this question.
"Jewelry."
"Hold on."
The male attendant hurriedly left.
Most of the time, the waiters standing outside the door are responsible for running errands, exchanging information, and summoning people. They want fast legs and good health, so how can they arrange any waitresses.
It's not a kiln.
A group of brothers and sisters had never seen the Mermaid Tears before, so they asked Liang Qu to come over and circulate them one after another.
Xu Zishuai twisted the orb: "Why are the Mermaid Tears so small?"
Xiang Changsong put his head in: "I've only heard of it, never seen it. How much is such a small one worth?"
"A few thousand taels? There should be two thousand taels. I often read in ancient books that the shark's tears are worth a thousand gold. Even though it is an exaggeration, there should be 20%."
"So expensive? Junior brother, where did you get it? Can you make a fortune with me? When the time comes, I will beat your legs and point you to a place, and the little one will go into the water and touch it himself! Let's give it 50-50."
Xu Zishuai stepped forward to massage Liang Qu's shoulders.
"Senior brother is joking. I only found this Mermaid's Tear in the water, and it was from my finless porpoise. There are many more."
"That's a shame."
Halfway through tea time, the waiter brought a steward and two appraisers.
Liang Qu took the Shark Tears that had been passed around from several senior brothers and handed them to the two jewelry appraisers.
One of them put on polished glass lenses and watched carefully under the light of gold oil candles.
The manager is a good judge of goods. He can guess the shape of the jewelry and think of the identity of the person in the box. Most of them are not fake.
He bowed his hands and said, "What you want to pawn for sale, could it be the Mermaid's Tears?"
"Exactly."
"Shark tears!"
The other jeweler who had not yet started was startled, and looked at his companion again, only to see him nodding to himself, it was clearly the real thing!
He quickly took the Merlet Tears, put on a magnifying glass and examined it carefully. After a while, he came to the same conclusion as the previous jewelry appraiser.
It's genuine!
The steward said with emotion: "In the past three hundred years, there are not many Mermaid Tears on the market. Most of them come from the sea."
"Then help me estimate the price."
"no problem."
The steward looked at the two appraisers, waiting for an answer.
The appraisers communicated and nodded to each other, and one of them stood up and spoke.
"This mermaid tear is medium in size and average in shape. It's clear in quality. Rounding it up, it's three thousand taels. What do you think?"
Several senior brothers who were listening were slightly in an uproar.
A transparent bead no bigger than a fingernail, worth three thousand taels?
Is the river bank short of people?
Is it too late to get a job now and get a finless porpoise?
"Okay, then three thousand taels."
Yang Dongxiong was sitting behind him, and Liang Qu didn't think he dared to deceive him.
Furthermore, the purpose of providing this business is to facilitate the realization of cash by the sellers. Who can participate in the auction? Naturally, honesty is the main priority.
After clearing the money and goods, Liang Qu got three brand-new thousand-tael silver notes. Adding the money he had on him, he still had 350 taels left!
