Chapter 172: The Rules of the Auction

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“There are a total of ten rare treasures participating that will be auctioned this time. Five of them are precious jewels that the Gao family has collected from all over the world over the past hundred years. The other five are rare herbs that have the effect of prolonging one’s life.”

When they heard the word medicinal herb, regardless of whether it was the various private rooms or the VIP seats in the main hall, a wave of restless whispering sounded out. The people of the influential families that had already inquired about the news in advance were eager to try.

The host held the microphone in his hand and continued, “I believe that the various families are well-informed and must have long known that there is an auction item today that is the Gao family’s treasure, the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb. However, the Gao family has always done as we please. The auction will focus on your fate with it. The family head also hopes that a treasure like the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb can meet someone who truly appreciates it and is able to bring out the greatest value of the rare herb.”

After saying this, the host opened the folded book in his hand. After taking a few glances, he looked up at the audience below the stage and said, “Therefore, the auctioneer will not introduce the five herbs that are participating in the auction this time. The names and effects of the herbs are all dependent on your guesses and understanding of them. The starting price of all the herbs is up to fate. If you want, you can name the price as you please.”

After a pause, the host panted slightly. “It will depend on everyone’s true ability whether you’d be able to obtain the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb!”

Just as the host on the stage announced the rules of the auction, the crowd below the stage erupted into chaos. One after another, complaints were heard.

“What’s the Gao family doing? Everyone is here for the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb. What kind of bullsh*t rules are they setting for this auction? They don’t even mention the name of the auction item. How are we supposed to bid!”

“That’s right, that’s right. My family gave me a total of two billion yuan. If I auctioned the wrong item and took a trash home, my old man would definitely kill me!”

“I really don’t understand what the Gao family is doing? They’ve really been getting worse and worse over the years. Are they trying to use a fake Pine Snow Herb to make up the numbers? Aren’t they bullying us for not being able to recognize the real thing with our limited knowledge?”

After being reminded by this person, everyone’s discussion became even louder. They all unanimously believed that the Gao family had released a false rumor and that they were unwilling to take out the real Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb. At that instant, other than the top families in the private rooms who remained calm and collected, the VIPs in the main hall were so furious that they were jumping on their feet with their faces red in anger.

At the same time.

In private room number five on the second floor, Lu Zheng raised his head and stared intently at the white-bearded old man in front of him. He frowned slightly and asked coldly, “Elder Fei, if the Gao family pushes the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb onto the stage from our position, would you be able to recognize it?”

The man who was addressed as Elder Fei by Lu Zheng pinched the space between his eyebrows and replied anxiously, “Young Master Lu, it’s not that I’m not confident, but I’ve only seen this Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb in a hurry once thirty years ago. If the five herbs that the Gao family took part in the auction this time were all fungi, I really don’t have much confidence in recognizing it accurately.”

After a pause, the white-bearded old man rubbed his hands and sighed heavily. “Young Master Lu, for safety reasons, I’m afraid we have to do our best to participate in the auction no matter what herbs the other herbs are. The Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb can’t fall into the hands of other families.”

When Lu Zheng heard this, he understood the deep meaning behind the old man’s words. He nodded with a grave expression. “I understand, but if we partake in the auction of every item, the money…”

At this point, a man in black who was standing quietly behind Lu Zheng could not help but take a step forward. “Young Master, if we continue bidding like this, the money we have prepared in advance will definitely not be enough. Otherwise, we can just go downstairs and ask Gao Rong for it. If he doesn’t give it to us, we can just snatch it by force. We have brought so many people with us, are we afraid that we can’t defeat the Gao family?”

Seeing that the man was about to turn around and leave, Lu Zheng quickly grabbed him and reprimanded him angrily, “No, there’s news that the Gao family has invited someone from the Love Pavilion to maintain the order of the auction. We can’t afford to offend the Love Pavilion..”
