Chapter 493 - Unexpected Events at the Auction
Chapter 493 - Unexpected Events at the Auction

But as things stood, Fatty Lai and Miracle Doctor Kang had involved themselves in a bidding war for the pill!

Miracle Doctor Kang. He was a titan of the medical world, and even that very titan was fighting to spend millions for this pill.

The pill was most definitely a miracle pill. Everyone was convinced.

They were regretting not bidding during the first round. Tianyi had it good. He’d snatched himself a miracle pill early on when the price was still low, but it was now being bid for 400 million! From what they could see, it might not even be the final price!

As expected, Guifeng raised his board again after Miracle Doctor Kang motioned to him. “410 million!”

He didn’t dare bid too much this time. The Kangs only had around 500 million yuan’s worth of movable funds and bidding too much for the pill would definitely affect the family business.

But Fatty Lai went quiet after Guifeng’s bid. People all assumed it was because he’d run out of money and was deciding he should withdraw.

Except he was looking at Lin Yi, a smile on his face. “Boss, the Kangs are probably near their limit. I can raise the bid again, and they’ll still be able to keep up, but anything beyond that has no guarantee.”

“Yeah, one more bid is good.” Lin nYi smiled. Fatty Lai wasn’t being very nice to the Kangs, but Lin Yi himself didn’t like that family very much. There was no reason for him to stop Fatty Lai from messing with them.

“410 million going once… 410 million going twice…” The auctioneer paused at the second call and turned to Fatty Lai, seeing if he wanted to make a higher bid.

Needless to say, it pissed Miracle Doctor Kang off. What in the world did this auctioneer think he was doing? Did he have to look at Fatty Lai even if he couldn’t bring himself to hit the final hammer? Was he encouraging the fatty to continue fighting him??

But the auctioneer’s encouraging eyes turned out to be effective. Gritting his teeth, Fatty Lai stood up and raised his board once more. “420 million!”

Miracle Doctor Kang went cold as he mentally cursed the fucking auctioneer.

It was House Yu’s auction, however, and Miracle Doctor Kang couldn’t really voice his opinion even if he wanted to. He swallowed his frustration and motioned for Guifeng to reraise.

After all, Miracle Doctor Kang had already labeled this Pill of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing an absolute treasure. Looking at things, it was highly likely that there were only these three pills. Missing out on this opportunity would be final, and Miracle Doctor Kang had to grit his teeth and fight to the end.

“430 million!” Guifeng raised his board.

“430 million going once… 430 million going twice… 430 million going three times! Sold!” The auctioneer wanted to let Fatty Lai continue bidding, but the man had unfortunately backed out, evidently because he’d run out of money and had confirmed his withdrawal. The guy wasn’t moving one inch!

Liu Tianyi was the happiest person in the room at the moment, feeling intensely pleased with himself!

He’d thought that 280 million for a pill was expensive, but it turned out that he’d gotten his pill at a bargain price! Fatty Lai couldn’t even get his hands on the last pill for 420 million, losing it to Miracle Doctor Kang for 430!

In actuality, he was wrong. Tianyi wasn’t the happiest man in the hall. It was Fatty Lai, who had played the entire auction hall!

These three pills had brought their company nearly one billion yuan’s worth of profit! This was the most vital part of the entire company’s growth, and with this one billion there were so many things they could do!

It was true that he wanted to get a pill for himself, but now that Lin Yi had promised to give him one his entire mindset towards the auction bidding had changed.

“Boss, what a surprise, right? We have tons of funds now!” Fatty Lai laughed.

Lin Yi never expected that three regular body cleansing pills could sell for this much money. These were things that the old man put in a tin can for him to eat like sweets when he was young, after all.

“Hah. You’ll get your share as well!” Lin Yi was quite impressed with Fatty Lai’s business skills. There was probably no way the pills would have sold for so much if it weren’t for Fatty Lai.

“Thank you, Boss!” Fatty Lai nodded enthusiastically.

But just when the auctioneer was about to move on to the next item, someone in the audience spoke up.

“Shouldn’t good things be shared with everyone, Little Yu Haitian! Aren’t there more of those Pills of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing? We didn’t even get to bid, and it’s sold out! That’s not very fair!” It was Wu Gonggao, the head of the Iron Fist Wus.

He had quite a name. Wu Gonggao meant impressive martial arts. It seemed like he was kissing his own ass, but at the same time it was completely justified!

After all, he was one of the very few mystic-class fighters! He was the only one who’d dare talk to a Yu like this.

House Wu of the Iron Fist, an ancient house. While on the surface, the Wu Family seemed like a house as powerful as the Lius, it was a house more than a century old. Houses like them always had a trump card.

If the head of House Wu brought his martial prowess to be bear, it’d be a spectacle just short of stunning. Even the Yu Family considered them formidable.

It could be said that as long as Wu Gonggao stayed the Wu Family’s head, no one would ever take them lightly.

Wu Gonggao had rushed over after receiving his grandson Wu Chentian’s phone call. He was in Yanjing and was planning on attending the Yus’ auction as well, but someone of his position very rarely attended the first two days of the auction, usually sending his sons and grandsons to represent him instead, personally participating only on the final day.

But hearing about the PIll of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing selling for 280 million, and the fact that even the Yu Family had participated, Gonggao couldn’t take it anymore. He rushed to the auction hall with haste, only to make it to the final call for the last pill.

He took one look at the description of the Pill of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing and felt that it was the long-lost body cleansing pill of the martial world. Feeling harmony with the item, his interest grew, resulting in him interrupting the auction out of his sense of loss.

If it were a son of a typical strong house, Haitian would have had a way to deal with it.

But this was Wu Gonggao of the Iron Fist Wus, a mystic-class master. He had to tread carefully here.

He turned to look at his uncle sitting beside him.

“Ask what Mister Lai Changyi thinks,” the middle-aged man said calmly after some hesitation. “If there are more, it wouldn’t hurt to pull out a few more pills. We won’t be taking a percentage of the profits!”

“Understood!” Haitian nodded before motioning to the auctioneer to pause the auction. He then gave Changyi a call.
