"No need for that. I am just asking. No wonder you are smiling." Bai Xiang shook his head.
The price was still increasing. Until the prize reached 69,000 taels. The current bidder was soone from the Ming Family.
Mo Yuemo looked around waiting for the other bidder to shout again. However, after 5 minutes, there was no one.
"69,000 once, 69,000 twice, 69,000 final." Mo Yuemo hit the gavel. "Sir Ming wins the bid."
The next auction started. Bai Guowei just ca in with his wife. They asked soone to send their son back after being rejected by the Shanghai Pavilion.
They thought of waiting until everyone entered the hall and sneak Bai Shaoqing in. However, after watching the fourth prince being thrown out and blacklisted by the manager of the Shanghai Pavilion, they did not dare to do so.
So, they had to return ho to send Bai Shaoqing back. On the way ho, Bai Shaoqing was throwing a tantrum after he found out that his parents were going to send him back.
He refused to go ho. The ti to return ho beca longer. Then, when they arrived ho, Bai Shaoqing refused to get off. After a few attempts to persuade Bai Shaoqing to get out of the carriage failed, Bai Guowei acted.
He made Bai Shaoqing fall unconscious. Han Yunru was shocked. She scolded Bai Guowei for doing sothing like this. Bai Guowei scolded Han Yunru back saying that Bai Shaoqing had grown up being spoiled.
He told Han Yunru that if she wanted to follow him back to the auction, then she needed to co and hop into the carriage. Otherwise, he would leave her and go to the auction alone.
Han Yunru just had the chance to go to the auction. How could she waste this opportunity? Han Yunru called soone to take care of her boy.
So, they arrived when the first auction ended. Bai Guowei asked what items had been auctioned. The person next to him explained.
Hearing this, Han Yunru was the first who was interested in the item. She wanted the item. Bai Guowei thought about that. The elixir was suitable for his old mother.
"Husband, we should bid for it." Han Yunru stated.
"Yes. Mother will be happy if she gets this as present for her upcoming birthday." Bai Guowei nodded happily.
’What? He wants to give it to his mother. Never mind. We will get two bottles. I will make sure to get one bottle.’ Han Yunru thought.
"Yes, husband. You are right. Mother will be happy about this." Han Yunru agreed.
The price right now is 55,000 taels. Bai Guowei shouted 56,000 taels. However, another person shouted the price higher than him. Bai Guowei fought back shouting the higher price. The price kept increasing until the price reached 69,000 taels.
The first batch was sold at that price. Would the second batch be sold at the sa price, or would it keep increasing?
Then, soone shouted 70,000 taels. Bai Guowei gritted his teeth. He gave up this. He did not dare to fight anymore. He still needed to bid on sothing else later.
"Husband, why do you give up?" Han Yunru asked.
"It is not worth the money. I still need to bid on sothing else. Well, this is just the second batch. We still have three batches." Bai Guowei said.
He said that not just to his wife but to himself too. He was hoping there would be a chance for them to have the elixir.
However, that hope was just going to be a hope. The next batches were being sold at a price higher than the first and second batches.
Bai Xifeng was happy to hear about that. She was already seeing the money coming into her bag.
"The next item is a book about Inscriber. The starting price is 10000 taels. You may start bidding now." Mo Yuemo stated.
"Miss Mo, I don’t think anyone will buy a useless book like that." Soone shouted from the audience.
Mo Yuemo just smiled. She just followed the order to sell this book.
Right after that, a girl’s voice ca from the room upstairs shouting the price.
"10,001 taels."
Everyone was silent at first. After that, they burst into laughter.
"A girl just bid adding one tael from its starting price."
"That is funny."
"Miss Mo, just sell it for her."
"No one will buy that book except her."
Bai Xifeng was the one who shouted earlier. She was not angry. She was just smirking thinking about how stupid these people were. They did not understand how amazing the book was.
As for the price, she did not want to waste much money. If soone bid after her, she would just add one tael only.
"10,001 taels, once. 10,001 taels, twice, 10,001 taels final. The book is sold for 10,001 taels." Mo Yuemo shouted.
Everyone was still laughing.
"Congratulations, Young Lady for bidding on a useless book like that."
"Hope it can help you."
"Those idiots." Bai Tingfeng was unhappy when he listened to those people who kept mocking his sister.
"Big Brother, just let them be. They are just idiots. No need to get angry about that." Bai Xifeng just smiled.
"That’s right, Tingfeng. Just let them be." Bai Xiang also nodded agreeing with Bai Xifeng.
