“Alright. Are we really going to the auction house tomorrow? What’s an auction house for?” Xia He asked curiously.

The Xia family had been in the military for generations and a few of them went into politics. It was only after Qiao i married into their family that the Xia family started doing business and gradually understood so business matters. Back ho, the situation was generally different from other countries and private transactions were not allowed. Coupled with the fact that the country was very protective of antiques and confiscated most of it from private owners, Xia He had never co into contact with a large-scale auction like this one.

“It’s a place where precious jewelry, antiques or land are auctioned. The highest bidder gets the item. Most of the items that are being auctioned off are very valuable and priceless. Due to that, the auction house will only admit people who are of a certain financial standing, ” Qiao i explained.

Xia He hurriedly walked up to Qiao i and asked softly, “The last ti you ca ho, you gave a ruby the size of a pigeon egg. Did you buy it here

“No, but if that gemstone of yours is up for auction, it can sell for at least 5 million dollars. If there’s anyone who particularly likes that ruby, then it won’t just be worth just 5 million dollars. Even if it’s 10 million dollars, there will still be people who are willing to pay for it,” Qiao i said with a laugh.

Xia He gasped and said, “Oh my goodness, 5 million! It’s more than what I earned in the capital! It’s more than 10 tis the amount! Where did you buy it? Don’t tell you got it through so illegal ans?”

“Of course not! That’s… soone used it to pay off the gambling debt the last ti I played at the casino. It’s probably a family heirloom,” Qiao i said.

Xia He believed what Qiao i said and no longer had any doubts about this matter. She started to study the list of items carefully, checking to see if there were any jewelry that she liked. She thought about buying a set as a gift to Xu Lan.

The next morning, Qiao i and Xia He put on their most beautiful dresses. Xia He chose a navy-blue fishtail dress which swished as she walked and made her look sultry. This was the first ti Xia He had worn sothing like this.

“Put on a black fox cloak too. You look so beautiful! Wear this set of eralds as well!” Qiao i said excitedly.

“Hurry up and get changed! We’ll be late if you don’t go and get ready!” Xia He said.

Qiao i wore a tight white dress with a white fox cloak over it. She accessorized with a set of pigeon blood ruby jewelry and looked very eye-catching.

Da Dong drove the two of them to the auction house in the minivan. Qiao i and Xia He attracted everyone’s attention just by standing at the entrance of the auction house. Many rich ladies in Sky City had co to take part in this auction and there were many elite mbers of society with them. To them, Qiao i and Xia He were still unfamiliar faces.

“Who are those two people?”

“I’ve never seen them before either. Are they the children of so noble family?”

“It doesn’t seem like it! It’s possible that they’re so n’s mistresses. I wonder whose wives are caught in such a miserable situation.”

“Be careful! What if it’s your family!”

“Hahaha, you really know how to joke.”

A few rich wives gathered around to gossip about Xia He and Qiao i and their background. Qiao i and Xia He did not care about this. Their goal was only the auction and to bid for the things they liked today.

The seat numbers were distributed by the auction house in advance. The richer one was, the closer one was seated in front. Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Qiao i and Xia He sat down in the first row.

“Heavens! Do you see that! The two of them are actually in the first row! Those are seats for people with a net worth of more than 100 million dollars!” one of the rich ladies exclaid.

“There aren’t many people in Sky City with a net worth of more than 100 million dollars. Who exactly is their backer?” another rich lady asked curiously.

Xia He gradually overheard so of the gossip. She lowered her head and whispered, “Does Fang Chen really have that much assets?”

“Not at first, but with the Shen family’s company which I won and those winnings, the total amount is probably about there. It’s just that these are all news that hasn’t been made public yet, so they don’t know anything about it,” Qiao i explained.

“Can we afford all the things on this list? There are a few things which I like very much,” Xia He asked.

“Bid for whatever you like. I have a lot of money with ,” Qiao i said with a smile as she patted the handbag in her lap..
