"Qing Tian is right. Third uncle made a mistake at the moment."
Putting the five bottles of life pills into his arms, the man rubbed the little girl's head with a loving expression on his face, "Thank you Xiao Qingtian for your contribution to the soldiers of the Xiao family army. Third uncle accepted it without any courtesy."
"If you want anything delicious and fun in the future, just ask, and whatever Third Uncle can buy will definitely satisfy you."
The Xiao family has a strict family tradition, and they treat their children with love but not doting.
In addition to being the only daughter among the younger generation, Su Qingtian is also a little girl who is loved from the bottom of her heart.
After the two met for just a few days, Xiao Ruofeng couldn't hide the joy in his heart and said doting words.
The child left behind by Hongyan is truly the lucky star of their Xiao family, and even more so of the Mo country.
Unfortunately, only the Xiao family knows this.
His Majesty, who was far above the high hall, was deceived by the Imperial Preceptor and Su Zheng.
I just don't know what the ultimate goal of the two is.
"Everyone, distinguished guests, please be quiet for a moment."
The discussion became louder and louder, and the woman saw the opportunity and almost spoke to control the situation, "I believe that you have clearly seen the effectiveness of this life pill, so let's start the auction of the life pill."
With a wave of his hand, the man behind him left, and the woman walked forward holding two bottles of life pills.
The pure white porcelain bottle shines brightly, attracting the greedy eyes of the crowd.
"As you can see, there are only two bottles of Life Pills, and there are a total of twenty-four pills in them."
"If you buy one, you will lose one. After the auction ends today, this lot will not appear again in the next two days."
“What’s the starting price?!”
Some people could no longer bear it and asked loudly.
This year's underground auction will be held for three days. If you miss it tonight, not to mention this year, you may not be able to find this medicine in the next ten or a hundred years.
The woman's red lips were slightly raised, and the palm holding the white porcelain bottle was slowly raised.
Everyone's eyes followed the white porcelain bottle, fearing that the elixir in front of their eyes would disappear.
The tulle slipped down, and the snow-white skin was particularly delicately reflected by the candlelight.
"Due to the special effect of the Life Pill, its auction method is also different from before."
As she spoke, the woman took out a handkerchief and poured out a life pill.
The black elixir rolled around in the veil several times, causing the crowd to commotion.
"Each piece is sold at a fixed price of one million taels. All guests are limited to purchasing one piece per person. First-come-first-served basis!"
The venue was instantly in an uproar.
One million taels!
It takes a million taels to buy a life pill. This auction is a clear money grab!
Counting the richest families in the capital, only a few can afford one million taels in one go.
Who would really be willing to lose all their money for a life-extending miracle drug?!
Complaining whispers gradually covered the venue, and the woman listened without showing any timidity on her face.
She stood elegantly on the high platform, like a god who controlled the lifeblood of the world, waiting for the ants to decide whether to exchange their life's hard work for a chance to live.
The complaints gradually changed over time. Many people complained and then calmed down, and the scene just shown flashed through their minds.
The bloody scene is vivid in my mind, and the scene of the man dying and coming back to life is also etched in my heart.
After a while, the commotion gradually died down.
The crowd fell silent in tacit agreement, seeming to be thinking about the same question in unison.
Spend all your money to buy it, or give up this opportunity.
Everyone's expression is the best answer. The woman raised a smile of victory.
This group of people have accepted the price of one million taels in their hearts, but unfortunately many people simply cannot afford it.
Whether it is a loan or a mortgage, that is not an issue that needs to be considered at the auction.
"The bidding for Ming Dan starts now!"
"Two from the Nangong family!"
As soon as the woman finished speaking, Nangong Zhen's rich voice followed closely.
Everyone turned to look at the Nangong family's box. Unexpectedly, they bought two pills without hesitation!
"The rules state that each person is limited to purchasing one."
Facing everyone's gaze, Nangong Zhen said without fear, "We two brothers, each with one stone, have not exceeded one!"
"Three from the Su family."
Su Zheng took advantage of the situation and spoke.
He had been robbed of the limelight all night before, but no one raised the price this time due to the purchase restriction. He finally got the chance to feel proud.
It's a pity that the purchase is limited, otherwise he would like to buy all twenty-four and let them see who is the richest person in Mexico!
Before everyone could react in the future, only nineteen of the twenty-four pills were left in the blink of an eye.
Without any hesitation, those who could afford one million taels of silver spoke one after another.
Shouts echoed throughout the venue.
The woman nodded with satisfaction, and the servant behind her flew with a pen to record the buyer and quantity.
In just one cup of tea, twenty-four life pills were snatched away.
Today's thrilling auction can be considered a successful conclusion.
But no one noticed that the young man who had won the first five lots was taking a nap on the armchair without raising his eyes.
Not even a single life pill was snapped up.
The auction is over, and the task given by the little master is understood.
As soon as Fan Ye stood up to leave, he was blocked by the steward.
"Young hero, please follow me to the accounting room to settle the bill."
Many people around him were paying attention to Fan Ye's movements and thought of stepping forward to chat a few words.
Even asking which wealthy family he is from is fine.
It would be best to have some connections.
There was a sinister look in some eyes, obviously they wanted to follow Fan Ye and wait for an opportunity to tie the knot.
Unexpectedly, he was invited away by King Jin's steward, and everyone immediately understood that King Jin was interested in him and wanted to recruit him.
The passage to the venue opened and the guests left Ziyin Pavilion one after another.
Xiao Ruofeng didn't want to attract attention, so he held the little girl and moved slowly with the flow of people.
When we reached the street, it was already dark.
Lanterns on both sides illuminate each inn.
Xiao Ruofeng randomly found a clean and bright place and took the little girl inside.
I ordered a table of dishes and waited for Fan Ye to come back while eating.
As soon as I took my seat on the second floor, many people coming from the auction came in one after another downstairs.
The two brothers Nangong Zhen were sitting in the booth behind the screen, discussing Fan Ye's identity in a low voice.
Diagonally opposite is the fat man I met who wanted to buy a screen. He was holding Zhu Bajie's mask with one hand. His excited friend was complaining about the unlucky day he came home empty-handed.
"Su Xiaoqianjin!"
A soft cry came from nowhere, immediately attracting everyone's attention to look at the door.
Su Qingtian raised her eyes and saw the Su family's carriage parked below through the fence on the second floor.
Su Zheng got out of the car first and quickly turned around to support his beloved wife Bai Ruoxue.
Then he reached out and picked up Su Lingxian in his arms, holding Bai Ruoxue with one hand and slowly heading towards the private room on the second floor.
Xiao Ruofeng changed seats the moment he saw the Su family's carriage, facing away from the stairs and the private room.
Naturally, he didn't want to be recognized by Su Zheng, and at the same time, he subconsciously blocked Su Qingtian beside him.
