All this while Eric had been standing on the side without much action, and hearing him suddenly overreact like that, certainly startled and surprised them.
It was surprising to find out that this antique article that Tianlong Yun was seeking was just too cheap and not much attention grabbing.
While it held a lot of artistic value in its details and life-like appearance, it didn't have many uses besides that. So Eric's reaction felt even more overboard for him.
At the same time, in the corner of the VIP room, Secretary Zhang watched over this situation with a complicated look.
But that wasn't important anymore, as he was now extremely interested to know why the mysterious guest, Eric would act like this for just a small jade sculp.
"Heheh~! Secretary Zhang do you think that I won't be able to notice your intentions!? You certainly don't think of me as a muddleheaded old fool, do you!?"
It was just like a thief being caught even before he actually tried to steal something. But Secretary Zhang had no one to blame besides himself. He had acted too hastily.

At the same time, he remembered something extremely good, as he said,
"Secretary Zhang, it's not that simple to find things similar to this dragon statue. This thing carries a special meaning to me in particular, not any little statue will do!"
At first, Eric found it a bit fun to play around mysteriously with Secretary Zhang but seeing the counterpart trying to benefit from his momentary fun, made him a bit displeased.
After all, he was totally focused on the little dragon statue, and couldn't take his eyes off it, fearing that someone might take it away before it came to him.
"I understand your words Esteemed Master, and while I don't really know what makes this little thing so special, I know that this thing is part of a set of 12 pieces.
By the end of his words, Secretary Zhang had managed to regain Eric's full attention, as he turned around and was looking at him like he was looking at a vital pawn.
On the other hand, he wanted to kill him so he could keep a seal on the information and his interest in the 12 pieces.
The reason was as simple, as it was complicated, each and every one of these pieces contained a great amount of Soul Aura and Belief Aura. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ ɴovelFɪre.net
At the same time, the reward he would receive from the Legacy System, and the value of this thing absorbed by the Legacy System would reach a gigantic amount of 10-50 million SP points.
This was just like gambling with jade stones for money, and suddenly chancing upon a big piece of Emperor Jade, making him rich in one strike.
If he managed to put a hand on all of them, then he would be able to make a great wealth of SP points, spending just a few worthless bundles of paper money.
"Secretary Zhang are you saying that you are willing to help me get my hands on them as a form of your compensation to us!?"
"Oh~! Hehehe~! It seems like you have already forgotten that there were two attempts on our life and honor Secretary Zhang.
Secretary Zhang's face turned a bit cold and weird for a second, but he managed to pass that moment easily, as he said,
Besides if you wanted to kill me, does it really matter whether I try to make money out of this, or not!?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Oh, really!? Please elaborate!"
Of course, I understand that you don't need me or the Auction House to sell them for a great price, but I think it would be much easier and simpler if you do so.
I don't think there is anyone else who would be willing to offer such a price, but that isn't all there is to it!
While I don't know why you are so interested in them, I am willing to allow you pre-choice on all the articles that our Auction House will put forth.
Eric had to admit that this Secretary Zhang was a truly sly fox with a great deal of observation skill, but there were still two matters that remained unanswered.
First of all, what do you, personally, need from me in exchange for this deal!?
"Heheeh~! I was wondering what concerns you had Esteemed Master, but it's just this! The answer is extremely simple for both of these doubts actually.
"Is that so!? While I do admit that I am truly disappointed and dissatisfied with him, can I truly believe you!?
"Esteemed Master you understand perfectly that what happened wasn't my intention, but I do accept that it was partially my fault.
Of course, if that isn't enough, then Esteemed Master could just tell me what would make you believe me, and I will try my best to actually do it!"
"Cui Xie you filthy bastard, how dare you threaten my cousin like that, when you are dealing with dirty money!?"
