1731: C1731 The Auction Began

C1731 The Auction Began

The Ho family had a VIP room all year round in the auction hall of the Returning Cloud Restaurant. Ho Faang brought his men to the auction hall later. Otherwise, if they continued to stay, they would only lose more people.

Mo Nan happily watched this fellow run away like he was running away. At this time, he looked at the Flower Jade Restaurant and could not help but feel closer. Of course, he was even more clear that all of this was because the people of City Lord's Mansion had come to greet them.

Otherwise, even if he really harmed the Ho family, In recent days, not only could he not get any preferential treatment from the Hall of Returning Clouds, but he might even be driven out.

At this moment, the Flower Jade Building said:

Fellow Taoist Mo, you don't have to worry too much. It's true that the Ho family is a distinguished guest of our Gui Yun Tower, but from today onwards, you are also a distinguished guest of our Gui Yun Tower."

"These are all things that should be done. I heard from Lord Quan that you are considering joining the Tu Devil Guard. Being able to join the Tu Devil Guard proves that you have a bright future ahead of you. Even if you don't join in the future, you will still be a distinguished guest of our Gui Yun Tower."

To put it bluntly, this was just a form of investment for all the talented warriors of the Cloud Returning Tower.

Moreover, this kind of investment did not need to be spent. The advantage of being a VIP was nothing more than having an extra room during the auction. It could be separated from others. It was the best way to win people over in this way.

It didn't cost much, but at the same time, it made people feel that they had indeed enjoyed a sufficient amount of preferential treatment in the Cloud Returning Tower.

old rascal naturally had the same feeling.

Immediately, he patted the shoulder of the Flower Jade Building like an old acquaintance and said,

"Director Hua is too polite. Speaking of which, since you're in charge of all the Cloud Returning Towers in the southern part of Zhong Prefecture, can you help me ask if there's anyone selling these spiritual herbs? It would be even better if you could sell them to me in private."

The expression on Hua Yulou's face stiffened.

Fine, it had always been him who was shameless enough to get close to these young men who were worth recruiting. This was the first time he had met them. Conversely, he had taken the initiative to build a relationship with them.

This person's face was a little too thick.

He had just said a few polite words. Who would have thought that... This young man actually took it seriously.

In his heart, he lamented the thickness of this person's skin. It would be a pity if he did not join his line of work. However, Hua Yulou also wished that Mo Nan would take the initiative to ask for his help. Immediately, he reported the names of the few spiritual herbs that the former mentioned. He nodded repeatedly and said,

"Since Fellow Taoist Mo is not polite to me, I will try my best to inquire about it later."

"Give me one day. Once there is news, I will inform you immediately."

After that, he finally remembered the time. He hurriedly called for an employee to lead the way for Mo Nan and said with a smile.

"We can talk about this later. The auction is about to begin. Brother Mo, hurry up and get ready."

In terms of skin, Hua Yulou wasn't any worse. Since the young man in front of him wasn't polite to him, he decided to change the way he addressed old rascal.

In the blink of an eye, the relationship between the two of them turned from a customer to a friend.

Mo Nan did not mind and even wished for it to be like this. He did not believe that in the future, those surnamed Hua could take advantage of him and gain more advantages than him in the Cloud Returning Tower.

When he heard that the auction was about to start, he did not dare to waste any time. He hurriedly followed the staff from the Flower Jade Tower, brought Mu Ruyan, and walked upstairs.

After a while, they went upstairs. The second floor was also a place to buy some spiritual herbs and materials. It was just that it was more precious here. They did not stop and continued to walk up. They waited on the first floor, which was the auction hall.

The huge auction hall was also divided into two floors. The lower floors were the normal guests who came to auction. The second floor was a place for the guests to stay.

After old rascal was brought into an independent room, the staff leading the way quickly introduced the rules to him. After that, he quietly left.

Not long after that, the auction began.

The Cloud Returning Tower of Liehyang City was considered the headquarters of the entire southern part of Zhong Prefecture. The items being auctioned here were obviously of a higher grade than other places. Starting from the first auction item, intense bidding started below.

Since it was not the item he wanted to buy, Mo Nan decided to accompany Mu Ruyan and enjoy the show.2

...

old rascal's VIP room was number seven.

It was not very far away from number three.

Ho Faang could not help but feel annoyed when he saw Mo Nan being brought up by an employee and brought into another VIP room. He did not know that the City Lord's Mansion had invited Mo Nan to join the Tu Devil Guard, so he could not figure out why this outsider, who did not have any background, could become a VIP of the Gui Yun Tower.

The Ho family would only suffer a loss if he fell out with the Gui Yun Tower because of this matter. Ho Faang decided to put all these grudges on Mo Nan's head.

"Keep a close eye on them. No matter what you buy in VIP room 7, increase the price continuously. I would like to see if this bumpkin has the right to compete with me..."

The few guards nodded upon hearing this.

Ho Faang snorted in satisfaction when he saw this. Only at this moment did he recall the purpose of his visit today. He immediately ignored that bumpkin. He said solemnly,

"An important guest has arrived in City Lord's Mansion. In a few days, City Lord Ding will invite most of the families and powers in the city to attend the banquet."

"If we can win that person's favor, our Ho family will no longer have to worry about losing our courage in Liehyang City. " Therefore, our Ho family will definitely get the final item. In a few days, we will treat it as a gift..."

Not only that.

Ho Faang's eyes suddenly lit up.

If he could get into that man's sight, it would be the best outcome. He would be like a bumpkin in a room not far away. At that time, he would be crushed to death.

Of course, even if the people behind him were the Ho family's guards, Ho Faang did not dare to say these thoughts out loud. He could only dream in his heart...

The auction gradually entered the middle stage.

"Young Master, they have bid."

Suddenly, the guard behind him reminded him. Ho Faang finally came back to his senses and looked up. From the window, he saw a pearl that looked like a night pearl on the top of room number three not far away. It lit up.

"Give me a higher price."

A smug look appeared on Ho Faang's face. He said with a gloomy smile.

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the bead outside his room lit up and disappeared in a flash.

...

In room number 7.

old rascal had finally gotten the Awakening Divine Fruit, so he naturally didn't want to miss it. He wasn't in a hurry to bid because he wanted the customers below to shout out the low price before he spoke again.

During this period of time, he told Mu Ruyan about the effect of the Awakening Divine Fruit. Sure enough, the latter's eyes lit up immediately.

When the speed at which the other customers increased the price became slower and slower, until no one else increased the price, Mo Nan finally lit up the lights outside the window confidently.

He was sure that there were no other competitors. This way, he could use the most suitable price to keep this fruit in his bag.

However, almost as soon as he bid, there was a commotion in room number three not far away.
