Chapter 783
"There was another kind that was also black, the rank seemed very high, it was called..."
Song Jing said thoughtfully.
Before he could finish, Wan Wan Shitong said calmly, "Black gold!"
Hearing this, Song Jing couldn't help but shiver, almost failing to hold onto the black gold token in his hand.
Chapter 834: The Grand Auction
"Bla, black gold?"
Song Jing widened his eyes and looked at Wan Wan Shitong with a surprised expression.
As he spoke, Song Jing looked down again at the black gold token he was holding.
No wonder it was so exquisite!
The feeling of holding it in his hand was completely different!
However, wasn't this black gold token a bit too valuable?
Thinking of this, Song Jing turned his head to look at Chen Ang and said, "Big Brother, this token seems very valuable! How about..."
As he spoke, Song Jing was afraid he might accidentally slip and drop the token, so he immediately reached out to hand it to Chen Ang.
However, before Song Jing could reach Chen Ang, he saw Chen Ang wave his hand and say, "It's just a token, how valuable can it be?"
"No matter how valuable the item is, if I give it to you, just take it and don't worry about whether it's valuable or not."
In Chen Ang's heart, no matter how valuable an item was, it wasn't as important as Song Jing.
Furthermore, Chen Ang truly didn't care about that so-called black gold token.
If he wanted to get another one, it couldn't be simpler.
Seeing Chen Ang say this, Song Jing didn't say anything more and had no choice but to accept the token.
"Alright, thank you, Big Brother! Then I'll accept it! I will keep it safe."
Song Jing said, looking at Chen Ang.
Wan Wan Shitong, standing to the side, looked at Song Jing and curled his lips, saying, "Xiao Jing, let me tell you, you must keep the black gold token safe. This thing attracts attention! I don't even have one."
Hearing this, Song Jing was startled and said, "Second Brother, you don't even have a black gold token?"
As he spoke, Song Jing became a bit worried about whether he could keep this token safe.
"A token of this level is very hard to get your hands on; your Big Brother has one because of his years of accumulation!"
Wan Wan Shitong looked at Song Jing with a serious expression.
It wasn't that he was afraid Song Jing wouldn't keep the token safe.
He was more afraid that someone would target Song Jing!
After all, anyone holding a black gold token must be someone of high net worth!
If someone targeted Song Jing and wanted to rob him, that would be trouble.
Therefore, Wan Wan Shitong hoped Song Jing would only take out the token when entering the auction house, and at other times, he should avoid taking it out if possible.
To avoid being targeted by people with ulterior motives!
Thinking of this, Wan Wan Shitong looked at Song Jing with a serious expression and warned, "Xiao Jing, this token isn't important to your Big Brother, but many people will target this thing because only a few people hold one!"
"They might think you have a lot of valuable things on you, especially those desperate criminals!"
Hearing this, Song Jing immediately nodded and said, "I understand, Second Brother."
Wan Wan Shitong continued, "Just keep this thing safe yourself; it's best not to let those who have nothing to do with you know you have it."
Once these words were spoken, Song Jing immediately put it into his pocket.
"Mm-hmm! I'll remember Second Brother's words!"
Song Jing said, looking at Wan Wan Shitong seriously.
Afterward, he turned his head to look at Chen Ang and said, "However, when entering such an occasion, don't they check? These tokens shouldn't be usable by just anyone, right?"
"Can I get in just by holding this? Besides, I don't know anyone inside."
Hearing this, Chen Ang couldn't help but smile and said, "You can get in just by holding the token, but..."
At this point, Chen Ang paused, then added, "But the token can indeed be checked to see whose it is, though this doesn't affect your use of it; others won't stop you from entering just because the token isn't yours."
Hearing this, Song Jing was startled.
This meant that as long as one held the token, they could enter the auction house; there were no markings on the token.
However, if the token were checked, its information could be retrieved.
Once the information was retrieved, the auction house would first confirm the relationship between the two parties; if the token holder and the token owner had no relationship, the auction house would take the step of sending a message to inquire about the matter.
This didn't affect others using the token! Unless Chen Ang reported it lost, the auction house would then detain the token holder.
After all, the auction house didn't want to offend the friends and family of those who owned the tokens.
If business could be done on a large scale, they would do it; why offend people and be so insensitive?
Especially those who owned high-level tokens!
"Understood."
Song Jing said.
Chen Ang said calmly, "You rest tonight; tomorrow we're also going to the auction house, and then I'll introduce it to you slowly. If you go a few more times, you'll get familiar with it yourself."
Song Jing nodded and said, "Alright."
After saying this, he turned and walked toward a certain place.
The next day, early in the morning, the three of them had already packed everything and set off for the auction house.
"The auction house holds a grand auction every so often; this is when it's easiest to find what you want at the auction house."
On the way, Chen Ang walked while looking at Song Jing to introduce it. "The so-called grand auction means there are more and better treasures being auctioned than usual."
"So every grand auction, the auction house is at its liveliest."
Song Jing nodded and said, "So that's how it is. Then in the future, when I want to go to the auction house, I'll also pick the times of the grand auctions."
Hearing this, Wan Wan Shitong, who was walking to the side, couldn't help but smile and said, "Do you know how to appraise goods?"
Once these words were spoken, Song Jing was startled.
Appraise goods?
Song Jing had truly forgotten this important matter!
If he wanted to hunt for treasures at the auction house, he naturally needed to know at what price it was worth buying the things he wanted!
If he didn't know how to appraise goods or estimate prices, then hunting for treasures at the auction house would only lead to a massive loss!
Thinking of this, Song Jing widened his eyes and looked at Wan Wan Shitong, saying, "Second Brother, if you hadn't said that, I really would have forgotten; I really don't know how..."
Hearing this, Wan Wan Shitong couldn't help but smile.
He could guess that Song Jing didn't know, also because the Wan Wan Shitong of the past didn't know either! It all relied on Chen Ang participating in the bidding!
Now, the reason Wan Wan Shitong understood was because they had been to the auction house so many times; they roughly knew what kind of treasure was worth what price!
If they still didn't know that, it would truly be strange!
"It's normal; I didn't understand either in the past!"
Wan Wan Shitong said to Song Jing, looking triumphant. "Once you see more, you'll know."
Hearing this, Song Jing was startled again.
What Wan Wan Shitong said was practically the same as saying nothing!
He naturally knew that seeing more would lead to understanding; he had previously thought Wan Wan Shitong was going to tell him some secret trick!
"Are there no secret tricks?"
Song Jing said, looking at Chen Ang and Wan Wan Shitong.
Chen Ang just smiled calmly and said, "That's really hard to say. Rather than us telling you, it's better for you to see it with your own eyes and participate in the bidding; that way, you'll have a deeper impression."
Hearing this, Song Jing nodded and said, "Participate in the bidding? But I..."
Before Song Jing could finish, Chen Ang had already guessed what he was going to say.
It was nothing more than saying he had no money, what would he use to participate in the bidding, and similar words.
Chapter 835: Are you still looking for a lackey?
It was normal for Song Jing to worry about this; after all, participating in the bidding indeed required a lot of money, which was very difficult for him right now!
But for the things Song Jing wanted, for Chen Ang, it couldn't be simpler!
It was just a little pocket money! Chen Ang could afford it!
"Don't worry about money; we'll just provide the money for you."
