Chapter 125: [125] You guessed it again_1



“Why are you stopping me? What if there are good things inside?” Xu Xinling looked at him somewhat reproachfully.

“There are plenty of good things coming up; no need to go into a frenzy right from the start,” Tang Feng couldn’t tell her the real reason, so he had to make up an excuse.

“Xinling, just listen to the young master this time, have you forgotten about the last time we opened a blind box? The young master is like a god of fortune,” Song Lele also chimed in to persuade her.

Xu Xinling did not say anything further, but she was clearly not pleased.

Gao Pengfei didn’t miss this opportunity to give Tang Feng a hard time, saying, “Xinling, your friend sure is interfering a lot, isn’t he? It’s not his money being spent, so what right does he have to control you?”

Xu Xinling gave him a cold glance, “What’s it to you?”

Gao Pengfei, having made a fool of himself, could only force a sheepish smile, “I just had a feeling that there would be something good in this container, I only feel bad for you.”

At this, Song Lele joined the conversation, “If you think there’s something good inside, why didn’t you bid yourself?”

Gao Pengfei responded confidently, “Well, I thought Xinling was going to bid, I didn’t want to compete with her. If I had known you weren’t going to, I would definitely have bid.”

Xu Xinling scoffed, “Since I’m participating in the event, it’s only natural to compete fairly. If you like it, make a bid; I don’t need your charity.”

“Okay, I’ll definitely bid next time,” Gao Pengfei pursed his lips and said no more.

According to the rules of the event, after each round, payment had to be made on the spot.

And the winner got to decide whether to open the container right there.

The lady who won the bid went to settle her account and agreed to open the container on the spot.

Workers immediately came over with bolt cutters in hand.

Everyone crowded forward out of curiosity to see what was inside the container.

“Clang!”

The workers cut the lock off the container with the bolt cutters and opened the door.

Inside, the container was filled with wooden crates of all sizes.

The on-site workers started to help remove the wooden crates and pried them open with crowbars.

Inside were packed full of stuffed toys.

The other boxes, when opened, were the same.

A sigh echoed around the venue as it was clear this blind box was a bust.

The stuffed toys in this container, when summed up, probably didn’t even total 100,000 yuan in value.

And the lady has spent a whopping 650,000 yuan on it.

Meaning she had lost at least over 550,000 yuan.

However, the lady seemed only slightly disappointed before she walked back into the crowd as if the loss didn’t matter much to her.

Tang Feng couldn’t help but be amazed at the financial audacity of these people.

Meanwhile, Xu Xinling and Song Lele both looked at him with surprise.

“Not bad, young master. You’ve guessed it right again,” Song Lele couldn’t help but punch him lightly on the chest.

“Isn’t this just business as usual?” Tang Feng wanted to respond in kind but she quickly dodged away.

“Thank you, young master. If it weren’t for you this time, I would have definitely lost a lot of money,” Xu Xinling also spoke up. Although the loss wouldn’t have meant much to her, it was still a happy circumstance to avoid a loss.

As for Gao Pengfei standing nearby, his expression turned somewhat ugly.

He had just confidently claimed that there could be something valuable within the container, only to discover that it was filled with plush toys.

Even though Xu Xinling didn’t say anything, he still felt his cheeks burning with shame and grew even more resentful toward Tang Feng.

While people were whispering among themselves, the auction for the second container began.

Having learned from the first container, everyone was much more cautious with their bids this time.

The starting bid was 50,000, and after several rounds, it barely broke 150,000.

Tang Feng scanned the container with the system and found it was filled with solid wood furniture.

The system’s estimated value was 300,000 yuan.

If he could get it for under 200,000, there would be a profit of about 100,000 yuan.

Thinking this, he raised his hand for the first time, “160,000.”

He was very frugal; since the event’s rules dictated that each bid must be at least 10,000 higher, he wouldn’t even go a cent above that.

Song Lele and Xu Xinling both turned their gaze towards him.

Knowing him as they did, if he wasn’t quite certain, he would never bid.

Could there be something good in this container?

However, Tang Feng’s offer was quickly surpassed by others, and the price rose to 220,000 before halting.

Tang Feng waited for a moment, saw that no one else was bidding, and once again raised his hand, “230,000.”

If he could get it for 230,000 yuan and sell it, he would make at least 70,000 or 80,000 yuan profit.

That’s almost what Qin Yanan would pay him for a month’s work. After all, a small profit is still profit.

Da Huzi deliberately paused for a moment before asking, “This handsome guy has bid 230,000 yuan, any more bidders? If not, this container will belong to this gentleman.”

“230,000 for the first time.”

“230,000 for the second time.”

“230,000…”

Just as he was about to finish the last call, a voice from the crowd rang out again, “300,000.”

“Shush, shush, shush…”

Every gaze in the room suddenly turned in that direction.

The person who made the bid was none other than Gao Pengfei.

This round had everyone bidding cautiously, raising the price by increments of ten or twenty thousand.

And he abruptly upped it by seventy thousand, which was quite noticeable.

Gao Pengfei reveled in the attention from the crowd, wearing a smile he thought very handsome.

“Gao Pengfei, what are you messing around for?” Xu Xinling immediately asked with displeasure.

“I’m bidding normally, how is that causing trouble?” Gao Pengfei looked at her with an innocent face.

“Still saying you’re not causing trouble? Tang Feng was the one interested in this container; he was about to win it when you suddenly bid. Why?” Xu Xinling glared at him angrily.

Gao Pengfei, feeling her bias towards Tang Feng, retorted, “Where is it written that if he is interested in something, nobody else can bid for it?”

Xu Xinling was momentarily at a loss for words.

Although she knew Gao Pengfei was intentionally targeting Tang Feng, he did indeed not break any of the event’s rules.

She really couldn’t find fault with his actions.
