I stormed down the mountain, took down all the big shots in the city, and the female CEO dragged me

"Does the Taoist priest want this bronze cauldron?"

Song Wenxuan looked at his assistant in confusion, making sure he hadn't misheard. The assistant nodded seriously: "On his way back, the Taoist priest saw the items we were auctioning here, and he wanted this bronze cauldron."

He couldn't figure out why the Taoist priest wanted the bronze cauldron, but since the priest had spoken, there must be a reason, and he was determined to get it.

One million.

Song Wenxuan immediately raised the price to one million, then glanced back at Xu Yuan with a sheepish look.

"Brother Xu, this thing is pretty useless, how about you give it to me?"

"As for the other items, besides the lucky jade pendant, you can choose any one, and I'll take a picture of it and give it to you."

Xu Yuan smiled and shook his head: "I want this cauldron."

He had seen and heard his assistant whispering to Song Wenxuan. It seemed that the Daoist Songyang they were talking about had also seen the uniqueness of the cauldron and knew something about it.

He became increasingly interested in this mysterious Taoist priest, Songyang.

"One million two hundred thousand." Xu Yuan continued to raise the price.

Anyway, I just made money from Song Wenxuan, so I don't need it now. Keeping it won't produce any offspring.

"Two million," Song Wenxuan said through gritted teeth.

The others couldn't help but look at the two of them.

"Are these two really competing?"

"It's a broken cauldron, maybe it's from last week, and the two of them even fought over it."

Seeing that Xu Yuan was about to bid again, Song Wenxuan quickly stood up: "Master Songyang has taken a fancy to this cauldron and wants to take it back to play with. Everyone, even if it's free, we should still give it to the Master."

Since money was useless, he resorted to moral blackmail.

Most of the people who came were drawn by Master Songyang's reputation.

Knowing that Master Songyang likes it, we will definitely give it to him for free.

Those who try to compete for things like wishing will only be despised.

Under verbal pressure, you definitely can't take the wish away.

"Since the Taoist priest likes it, then we'll give it to him."

"That's right, give it to the Taoist priest."

"Two million four hundred thousand."

Xu Yuan seemed not to hear and continued bidding.

"Rules are rules. You set the rules for the auction, and now you want to change them."

What's the difference between this and you taking your own poop and then eating it all back, bite by bite?

Song Wenxuan's face turned ashen as he glared at Xu Yuan, who remained completely unmoved by reason.

You have completely enraged me.

Xu Wenya covered her mouth and nose in disgust: "Your words are disgusting, Young Master Song, why don't you just throw him out?"

"Who do you think you are? Who gave you the right to speak?" Zhang Ruonan's single glance made Xu Wenya unable to lift her head.

"Okay, if you're going to follow the rules, then let's do it the way we do."

Song Wenxuan slunk back onto the stool: "You can be happy for a while. When the Taoist priest comes back, we'll settle both our old and new scores together."

"Two million four hundred thousand, any other bids?"

The auctioneer called out several times, but no one spoke. They wouldn't risk offending a mysterious Taoist priest.

Moreover, they also needed the Taoist priest's help.

The auctioneer brought down the gavel, and Xu Yuan obtained the elixir cauldron as he wished.

He held the cauldron in his hand and carefully examined it, finding it to be exactly the same as the one he had seen in the book.

Using it to refine elixirs can gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, making the elixirs twice as effective with half the effort.

"What use do you have for this thing?"

Song Wenxuan muttered under his breath, "It's even a hassle to fill a container with water."

"Spending 2.4 million to buy this thing, what an ignorant country bumpkin," Xu Wenya muttered, not daring to look Zhang Ruonan in the eye.

"He spends a woman's money with such self-righteousness; he's a real gigolo."

Next, we will move on to the next item in the auction...

The auction continued, and Xu Yuan remained silent, focusing intently on studying the cauldron in his hands.

The elixir is ready, but the necessary medicinal herbs are needed. However, it's unclear whether the available herbs will be effective.

"This is an incomplete prescription; you can see it on the big screen," the auctioneer's voice echoed through the hall.

Upon hearing the recipe, Xu Yuan curiously looked up, and a simple, yellowed piece of paper was projected onto the large screen.

The auctioneer pointed to the employee's tray next to him; the actual papers were inside.

"Starting bid: one million. Anyone bidding?"

"I want this. Don't try to take it from me." Kim Kyung-seok said loudly without any restraint.

He came here specifically for this elixir formula.

He didn't know the specific purpose; his family had just asked him to take the picture, saying it was to be given to a big shot in Beijing.

"One million." Kim Kyung-seok held up his sign.

Seeing this, no one else spoke up. In their eyes, it was just a piece of scrap paper, useless to them. They mainly wanted to buy the lucky jade pendant.

Moreover, the Jin family doesn't have a good reputation in Mingdai, and no one wants to make enemies with them.

"Young Master Jin, I'm sorry, but I also need this."

Song Wenxuan smiled and gestured for the person next to him to raise their bidding paddle: "Two million."

The Song family was in the business of medicinal herbs. Although the prescription was incomplete, they had it filled in by Taoist Master Songyang after the purchase, and it became the Song family's prized possession.

With such an ancient elixir formula displayed in the Song family to enhance their prestige, business will naturally come knocking.

"Young Master Song, you're not giving me any face."

Kim Kyung-seok continued to raise his paddle: "Three million, I'm determined to get this."

"Three million two hundred thousand." Song Wenxuan continued to raise the price.

He secretly looked down on the Jin family, but on certain matters, he would never admit it.

"Four million." Kim Kyung-seok's tone became stiff.

"Gentlemen," Xu Yuan suddenly spoke, cupping his hands in a respectful gesture towards the two, "may I say something?"

Kim Kyung-seok and Song Wen-xuan both looked at Xu Yuan. Song Wen-xuan's eyes were filled with disgust. Why did you have to come out and join in the fun again?

"Wait a moment, will either of you be able to bid on this pill formula, and if either of you manages to buy it, could I take a look?"

Xu Yuan said modestly, "To be honest, there are probably very few people who can complete the missing parts of this pill formula, and I am one of them."

"You?"

Before Jin Jingshuo and Song Wenxuan could speak, Xu Wenya's sarcastic voice rang out first: "Do you know what this is?"

"Can you recognize all the characters above?"

"How dare you boast that you know the complete formula? Do you even know the functions of the medicinal ingredients?"

"Shut up!"

Kim Kyung-seok angrily retorted, "Do you even have the right to speak?"

"Song Wenxuan, can you put anything in here?"

"A shameless bitch who was born without any manners, and we can't even ask her to be kicked out?"

Song Wenxuan's already displeased mood was completely ignited: "Someone, throw him out."

"I…"

Xu Wenya wanted to say something, but the security guard at the door came forward, grabbed her arm, and led her out.

As she passed by Xu Yuan, she didn't forget to glare at him fiercely, as if it was all because of Xu Yuan that she had lost face.

Zhang Yunxi sat quietly in place without saying a word or offering any help, regretting bringing Xu Wenya along.

"Now it's quiet, let's continue."

Kim Kyung-seok smiled and looked at the stage, then turned to look at Hsu Yuan: "If I bid on this, I'll definitely let Brother Hsu take a good look at it."

"If he can complete the elixir formula, I'll eat shit upside down." Song Wenxuan sneered.

Even Master Songyang wasn't entirely confident in completing the elixir formula, yet he made promises off the cuff without even looking in the mirror. He's just lying to people.

"Four million twice, any higher bids?" the auctioneer on stage continued to call out bids.

The price of one prescription reached four million, exceeding Song Wenxuan's budget, and he would not raise the price any further.

He already knew the contents of the prescription; at worst, he could just go back and rewrite it.

"make a deal."

Kim Kyung-seok took the prescription and waved to the crowd, saying, "Thank you for the favor."

"The last item up for auction, and today's highlight, is a lucky jade pendant."

This was personally refined by Master Songyang over eighty-one days. Obtaining this item will cure all illnesses and bring great wealth to those in business…

"Let's get started."

Some people in the audience couldn't wait and urged him on.
