220: You guys really know how to have fun!
Night fell.
Wang Chen and Huang Yuan arrived at the entrance of the auction house together.
With Huang Yuan, an insider, Wang Chen followed him directly into the lavishly decorated auction house.
However…
A small incident occurred when they entered the auction house.
Wang Chen ran into an acquaintance.
It was Young Master Liu Zishan, who he had scared unconscious not long ago.
The guy had a pale face, and he stood in the crowd, staring at him with a resentful expression.
“Mr. Wang, there’s no need to worry. I’ve already had the Liu family warned from above.”
Huang Yuan followed Wang Chen’s gaze and, upon seeing Young Master Liu Zishan, a cold smile appeared on his face.
“Then many thanks, Manager Huang.”
Wang Chen nodded, not paying it much mind, and was led directly by Huang Yuan to a private room.
“Quite a few people are attending the auction, Manager Huang. Your Yuantong Chamber of Commerce will probably make a fortune tonight.”
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looking down at the auction hall below, Wang Chen said meaningfully.
The main hall of this auction house was extremely vast, and in addition to the twenty private rooms where he was located.
There were also as many as five hundred individual seats below.
“Not at all, you’re joking.”
“Is there anything you need on the list?”
Huang Yuan walked to the side and asked with a chuckle.
“Hmm.”
Wang Chen nodded, looking at Huang Yuan with a half-smile:
“What? Can Manager Huang get it for me through internal connections?”
“No, no.”
Huang Yuan shook his head awkwardly:
“Once an item enters the auction phase, it’s no longer something I can interfere with.”
“What I mean is, if you find an item you like and want to bid on it but don’t have enough Holy Quartzs, I, Huang, can advance the payment for you.”
Wang Chen looked at Huang Yuan in surprise, a smile appearing on his face.
“Then I thank Manager Huang in advance.”
He did not decline and directly nodded in agreement.
Originally, he only wanted to see how high a price his two items would fetch at this auction and gain some experience.
But…
On the item list Huang Yuan sent him, he did indeed find something he was interested in, something he could even say he desperately needed.
Thousand-Year Ice Marrow.
The Materials for Ice Purity to enter her next growth stage.
This Material has already surpassed the scope of magical Materials categorized by letters, reaching the Ranks of super-grade, and can already be considered a type of Heaven And Earth Treasure.
The Dragon Country divides super-grade Materials into four Ranks, Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow, in decreasing order.
This Thousand-Year Ice Marrow is a super-grade Material ranked Yellow.
Wang Chen had not found Thousand-Year Ice Marrow on the market or even within the school before.
Unexpectedly, he stumbled upon it by participating in an auction on a whim.
Regarding Ice Purity’s advancement, he had to get his hands on this Thousand-Year Ice Marrow no matter what.
To the side.
Hearing Wang Chen agree, Huang Yuan was first stunned, then wild joy surged in his eyes.
This, my relationship with Mr. Wang has taken another step forward!
“You can rest assured, I, Huang, have ample funds and will never let you miss out on the auction item.”
Huang Yuan patted his chest and said very generously.
“Good.”
Wang Chen nodded, and the two sat in the private room, quietly waiting for the auction to officially begin.
…
…
At this moment.
In the seats below.
Young Master Liu Zishan held his bidding paddle and found his seat in the front row.
“Young Master, who was that kid just now?”
“Did he provoke you somewhere before? Should I teach him a lesson after the auction ends?”
As soon as he sat down, his newly replaced guard diligently offered him fruit.
“Scram!”
Young Master Liu Zishan’s mouth twitched as he glared at the clueless guard.
It was better if the other party didn’t mention it; as soon as he did, Young Master Liu Zishan felt a faint pain on his face.
“Ah?”
His attempt to curry favor backfired, and the guard stood to the side, looking chagrined.
Seeing the guard’s expression, Young Master Liu Zishan felt even angrier.
Having lost so much face, he did want to retaliate, and he had already begun to act on it after returning home.
But…
Just as he was about to call for backup, he was mercilessly suppressed by his father.
The Yuantong Chamber of Commerce had sent word, saying they wouldn’t pursue the matter of him causing trouble in the store.
In other words, this was also a warning to him not to think about retaliating in secret.
Young Master Liu Zishan, who had never suffered such great humiliation in his life, almost exploded with rage.
But what could he do?
He could only obediently submit to his father’s suppression.
“Bastard!”
“I will get my revenge for this someday!”
“No matter what you want to bid on today, I’ll raise the price for you!”
Thinking furiously, Young Master Liu Zishan grabbed the water cup on the table and took a sip.
“Pfft!”
But the next second, he spat it out.
Smack!
“Bastard, who told you to pour hot water for me?!”
He slapped the guard casually, then stuck out his tongue like a dog.
…
…
As time passed, the auction officially began.
Buzz buzz buzz!!
Magic power surged in the hall, and dazzling magical lights illuminated the somewhat dim hall, making it brightly lit.
Immediately after.
The lights shone on the auction stage in the hall, and cheerful music simultaneously began to play.
More than ten women, clad in thin veils, with charming faces and alluring figures, walked out from behind the stage and performed a hot dance, each movement full of charm and extremely enticing.
In an instant, the atmosphere throughout the hall became a few degrees hotter.
“Damn!”
“They’re really playing it up!”
Standing in front of the private room’s floor-to-ceiling window, Wang Chen shook his head with a smile as he watched this scene.
First, they had a group of beautiful women perform a hot dance to open the show, getting the attendees riled up.
This Yuantong Chamber of Commerce truly understood the power of perverts.
“Mr. Wang, the window of this private room can be directly controlled.”
Just then, Huang Yuan suddenly gave Wang Chen a subtle look, then stepped forward and slid his hand across the private room’s window a couple of times.
In an instant, the view magnified, and the distance between the dancing women on stage and the private room instantly closed.
They were so close, it was as if they were face to face, and one could even hear their gasps as they danced.
“It can do that…”
Huang Yuan moved his hand again, and the scene shifted, with a clearer solo dance appearing in the view.
“Holy crap!”
Seeing this, Wang Chen was directly shocked.
These guys really knew how to have fun!
“Mr. Wang, if you have anyone you fancy, I can get them for you…”
Huang Yuan said meaningfully at this moment.
“Stop right there!”
Wang Chen quickly waved his hand, awkwardly taking a step back.
Are you kidding me!
I’m still a child.
You old pervert, stay away from me.
“Uh…”
Huang Yuan hadn’t expected Wang Chen to react so strongly and froze in place.
He felt he had overdone it a bit.
However, at this moment,
The hot dance on the auction stage ended, and a young woman with a low-cut top stepped onto the stage beside the table, breaking the awkwardness in the room.
“Welcome, all esteemed bosses, to tonight’s auction. I am your auctioneer for tonight, Tang Youyou.”
After speaking, Tang Youyou bowed shakily to the surroundings.
