During Master Chen and Bai Yan’s casual conversation, ten minutes quickly passed, and the auction officially began!
At the most central position of the evening, a small display stand had already been set up. A beautiful hostess clad in a cheongsam walked onto the stage, her captivating eyes moving as she smilingly introduced one auction item after another.
The auction offered a wide variety of items for sale.
There were treasures like oil paintings, Ming and Qing antiques, African diamonds, and so on—luxurious and precious items were plentiful.
Every person present at the banquet was an influential figure from ZH City’s upper-class society; none were short of money. They bid for these items at prices above their value, hoping for good luck, which was just another way to donate more money for charity as an act of accumulating virtues for themselves.
When it cos to Hua Xia businessn, most of them have firm beliefs in accumulating virtues for their afterlife.
As everyone fervently bid, one item after another was successfully auctioned off, and the total charity amount from the auction kept on climbing.
Half a million, one million, five million, ten million, twenty million!
The officials, led by the mayor of ZH City, couldn’t stop smiling. This money was going to be used to support impoverished areas and the achievents would also be credited to these officials.
Businessn earned a good reputation, and officials gained comndable achievents—everyone’s interests were aligned, and the auction proceeded with great enthusiasm.
"Xiao Man, is there anything you want?"
Bai Yan turned his head and asked softly.
"No need, I don’t want anything. Having you is enough!"
Li Xiaoman said with a light laugh. She gently leaned her head on Bai Yan’s shoulder, her beautiful eyes slightly squinting as she enjoyed the tenderness that belonged solely to Bai Yan. This rare mont of serenity was undisturbed, belonging only to the two of them.
Within this small seating area, she could freely enjoy Bai Yan’s affection, with no one to compete with her for it.
"Silly girl."
Bai Yan smiled tenderly, his eyes revealing his indulgence.
Master Chen, sat at the side, had already shifted his attention away from Bai Yan and was nervously staring at the display stand. With each item that was brought out, his tension increased.
"Old Chen? Is there sothing you’re looking to bid on?"
Bai Yan asked, sowhat puzzled.
Master Chen chuckled, flipping through the information card provided by the waiter; he turned to one of the pages, pointing to an item and said, "I won’t hide it from you, Mr. Bai, the thing I want to bid for is this!"
[Wanyan Company dicine No.1 original dicine: The dicinal effect is about ten tis that of Biological Potion No.1! Concentrated high-strength version!]
Bai Yan was stunned, then chuckled.
The so-called Wanyan Company dicine No.1 original dicine was, in fact, the original version of the Life Juice! There was just enough Life Juice for one person on auction, provided by Li Xiaoman for the auction, considered to be a show-stopping treasure of the event!
"Old Chen, what do you need this thing for? It’s used to treat terminal illnesses; don’t tell you’ve got one?"
Bai Yan was a bit perplexed.
Master Chen gave a bitter smile: "Mr. Bai, the truth is, I don’t have a terminal illness, but I do have internal injuries! I’ve already inquired around, soone in Hua Xia has experinted and found that Wanyan Company’s dicine No.1 can not only treat terminal illnesses but also has so healing effects on Abnormals’ injuries."
"I’ve also bought and tried a few doses of Biological Potion No.1 myself; my internal injury is quite severe, an old affliction. Although dicine No.1 has so effect, it can only suppress, not eradicate, my injury."
"I reckon that since the original dicine is ten tis stronger than the regular dicine No.1, it should heal my internal injury in one go! That’s why today, I must acquire it at all costs! Even if it ans spending all my savings, I will buy it!"
Master Chen’s eyes reflected a touch of resolution.
Bai Yan, on the other hand, was utterly astonished, as this was the first ti he had learned that Life Juice could aid the injuries of the Abnormal!
Moreover, from what Master Chen implied, the Huaxia Abnormality Organization had already tested Wanyan Company’s dicine No.1!
Damn, as the owner of the Life Juice, I wasn’t even aware of this!
I’m behind on information!
With a bitter smile, Bai Yan shook his head: "Alright then, I wish you imdiate success."
"Haha, then I shall take your auspicious words, Mr. Bai!"
Master Chen laughed heartily.
As the auction proceeded, precious items were gradually sold off, reaching a total bid amount of fifty million!
Under Master Chen’s eager anticipation, the hostess finally announced the auction of Wanyan Company’s Biological Potion No.1 original dicine.
"Next up for auction is an item that everyone has been anticipating, the [Wanyan Company’s Biological Potion No.1 original dicine]! Its miraculous properties need no further introduction from , as everyone has a deep understanding of the ordinary dicine No.1’s dicinal value. Today, the original dicine being auctioned has dicinal effects roughly ten tis that of the ordinary dicine No.1!"
With a light chuckle, the hostess gave a brief introduction that instantly piqued the interest of many.
"If we could bid on this original dicine, flipping it could make us a hefty profit!"
"The ordinary Wanyan Biological Potion No.1 is already priced at ten million per dose in the overseas black market! I estimate that the price of this original dicine will be no less than a billion! Unfortunately, I don’t have the strength to compete."
"Be more optimistic! Who doesn’t know that Wanyan Company’s dicines are limited in supply overseas? Even Japan has no official channels to obtain them; Wanyan has even stated they will not provide dicines to countries like the U.S., Japan, and H Country! The dicines they get are all acquired through illegal ans, hence the high prices."
"That’s so solid logic. I think today’s original dicine will go for no more than fifty million! It could still be worth a try!"
"Just give it a go! Wanyan Company’s products are always top-notch! This is so good stuff!"
The crowd buzzed with discussions, their whispers reaching Bai Yan’s ears, causing his expression to twitch slightly.
An estimated price of around fifty million?
Damn! A single person’s Life Juice can make so much money?!
It’s even fifty tis more expensive than an ordinary Wanyan dicine No.1!
At this mont, Bai Yan was sowhat tempted. He thought it would be a good idea for Wanyan Company to expand their pharmaceutical product line and release the original dicine for sale in the future!
"Tehe, silly master, the value of the original dicine is incomparable to dicine No.1. Everyone is researching our company’s dicine No.1 now, but not a single company has succeeded in decrypting its composition. So its potential value also includes its so-called dicinal formula!"
Li Xiaoman explained softly in Bai Yan’s ear with a light chuckle.
Li Xiaoman was perceptive; from the flicker in Bai Yan’s eyes, she knew exactly what he was thinking.
"In fact, outsiders don’t know that our dicine doesn’t have an actual formula, hehe~. But I won’t tell anyone, and I’m already in the process of preparing to launch original dicine products. Today’s auction is a pilot for . I want to see how much this original dicine can sell for before setting an accurate price for it!"
Li Xiaoman explained softly in Bai Yan’s ear, her tone sly and proud, oh so adorable.
"Not bad, you’ve done a great job! I will reward you well later!"
Bai Yan laughed heartily; his little female servant was getting better and better at business.
Li Xiaoman bead with joy, everything she did was to help Bai Yan achieve his goals sooner. Her heart was firmly tied to Bai Yan alone, the deeper she fell, the deeper her love grew!
