I'm the protagonist's dad, but the heroines want to kill me

A figure slowly walked to the center of the beam of light. Li Yuhan, wearing a platinum cheongsam, came to the auction table. Her curvy figure appeared even more plump in the tight cheongsam, which immediately ignited the eyes of some people in the venue.

With a smile on her charming face, Li Yuhan said a few words to the audience with a sweet laugh. Her mature and charming demeanor that made people addicted easily made the atmosphere in the auction hall become hot.

Looking at Li Yuhan below, Lin Ran couldn't help but tilt his head and tapped lightly on the handle with his fingers. She was worthy of being the famous confidante in the original novel. Her charm was so amazing that even if he just picked up a piece of cheap merchandise, someone would pay a large sum of money to buy it just to make her smile.

Li Yuhan opened her red lips and said with a smile: "Maybe everyone present here is seeing me for the first time. I am the current president of Jinling Chamber of Commerce in Linshan City. My name is Li Yuhan. Today I will host this auction for you. I hope you will support me!"

The auction hall was suddenly filled with warm cheers and applause. Many people looked at the woman on the stage with fiery eyes, staring at her plump and exquisite curves under the cheongsam. Some bolder ones even uttered foul language and behaved indecently, but they were "asked to leave" soon after.

After Li Yuhan said some polite words, she went straight to the point: "I declare that today's auction officially begins!"

As the voice fell, a platform slowly rose from the ground next to Li Yuhan. The bright lights gathered there. On the platform were placed delicate little bottles made of mutton-fat jade.

"Our first lot is a mild liquid medicine that can be used for practicing in the Body Refining Realm. The liquid medicine is of the third-level elixir level. The method of use is to pour the liquid medicine into the bathtub, sit cross-legged in it and practice. When the water in the bathtub becomes completely clear, it also means that all the medicinal power has been absorbed. This mild liquid medicine can greatly improve the speed of practicing in the Body Refining Realm and build a more solid foundation. It is also a tool that can quickly train young people." Li Yuhan picked up the medicine bottle, looked at the hall with a smile, and said: "The base price is 10,000 gold coins, and each bid must not be less than 1,000. Let's start!"

Lin Ran:?

Lin Ran, who was sitting in the box, almost spit out his tea when he heard the price. He had also used this kind of mild medicinal liquid used in the body refining realm. When training Lin Chong and Lin Hongjia, he had always used similar spiritual liquids, but his was of higher level, with stronger medicinal power and better improvements in all aspects.

But making a few bottles of his product shouldn't cost as much as 10,000 gold coins, but this one starts at 10,000 gold coins, and the starting price for the additional charge is 1,000 gold coins.

When it comes to "cruelness", women are more cruel. It's so horrible when they kill people!

The price quoted by Li Yuhan made the whole audience silent for a moment, but soon someone, who was almost bewitched by Li Yuhan's every move, shouted loudly: "Thirteen thousand!"

After shouting out the price, the young man pretended to be elegant and bowed to Li Yuhan on the stage, but his eyes were always looking at the deep ravine.

Li Yuhan ignored the guy whose brain was completely controlled by his lower body, kept smiling, and asked the audience: "Anyone else want to bid?"

"Fifteen thousand!"

"Twenty thousand!"

As the bids kept coming one after another, the young man could only sit down awkwardly, not daring to bid anymore. After all, the price for a beauty's smile was still too high.

The competition for this kind of body-refining liquid medicine is fierce, but the truly powerful forces are basically taking a spectator's attitude. Even though this kind of body-refining liquid medicine is relatively rare, this is only the first item in the auction. If too much money is spent now, it will be difficult to make ends meet later.

The Great Elder actually wanted to ask Lin Ran to help buy those body-refining spiritual liquids so that he could prepare special meals for his grandson. But when he thought of Lin Ran's strength at the Spiritual Pill Realm, and the fact that his grandson was enjoying the teachings of the clan leader, and the medicinal baths he took every day seemed to be of this kind, he finally kept silent.

After much bidding, this batch of Body Refining Spirit Liquid was finally sold for 58,000 yuan and was bought by a small force.

The leader of the small force that won the auction looked very happy. Seeing this, Lin Ran was already thinking about whether he should start another side job like this, making this kind of medicine and selling it to Jinling Chamber of Commerce, and advertising it at the same time, saying that his son Lin Chong used this medicine to make great progress in strength. This would be a great way to make money.

After selling this batch of liquid medicine, another batch of small bottles rose on the small platform. Li Yuhan picked up one of the bottles and said with a smile: "For those who didn't bid for the Body Refining Spiritual Liquid just now, don't be too sad. We have a total of three small bottles here, all of which can be used by people in the ninth level of the Body Refining Realm to successfully break through to the Daoist Realm to make the Dao Condensing Pill.

We all know that there is a chance of failure in breaking through to the Daoist realm, but with this Condensing Dao Pill, your descendants will be able to break through to the Daoist realm very smoothly, saving a lot of time for retraining compared to others."

Li Yuhan looked at the excited crowd below, and the smile on her face became brighter and brighter: "The starting price for this batch is 100,000, and the minimum bid increase is 1,000 each time. Let's start!"

As soon as the price was announced, the originally excited hall suddenly fell into silence, and it even lasted for quite a long time. The main reason was that the price of 100,000 gold coins was a bit too painful. This was only the starting price, and there were many forces above it, so no one dared to bid.

"One hundred thousand and one!" someone from one of the boxes suddenly shouted.

Lin Ran couldn't help but look towards the box and laughed out loud: "Even though the Murong family is in this state, they still have money. It seems they are still very rich!"

"Clan leader, do you want to make an offer now?" The great elder looked at Lin Ran a little excitedly. He was very envious of this Ning Dao Pill. If he could get one for his grandson, wouldn't it be easy for him to reach the Daoist realm?

Lin Ran looked at the elder who was red with excitement and laughed at him, "Oh, the elder seems to want it very much. How about this, the elder pays for it himself. Don't worry, I will support you mentally."

The Great Elder: “….”

Damn it, you control the entire family finances and don't give him any chance to enrich himself. Where does he get the money to bid?

The younger generation at the back also wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. After all, the Great Elder was here, and it would be bad if they couldn't help laughing out loud.

But there are always people who stand up at times like this, for example...

Comrade Lin Chong in the back row could not help but laugh out loud. Although the sound was not very loud, it was still very obvious. Lin Ran and the Great Elder in the front row also turned around to see who was so bold. Everyone in the box looked at Lin Chong.

When the elder found out that it was Comrade Lin Chong, his expression suddenly became strange, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Lin Chong, why are you smiling so happily?"

"Uh..." Lin Chong couldn't help laughing unexpectedly. Everyone stared at him. He suddenly remembered a phrase his father used to like to use and pretended to say, "I remembered something happy!"

"Pfft!"

Lin Hongjia, who was standing by, couldn't help laughing when she heard this. She knew that this was what Lin Ran liked to say every day, but the focus of his attention shifted from Lin Chong to her, which made her blush a little. She quickly said, "I also remembered something happy."

"You..." The Great Elder was just about to show some authority.

Lin Ran on the side said with a smile: "Great Elder, why bother with the juniors? Don't worry, I will compete for the Ning Dao Pill."

"That……"

The Great Elder's fat old face suddenly looked like a blooming chrysanthemum. When he was thinking of asking Lin Ran to give him one privately, Lin Ran's next words made his face darken again.

"If you win the auction, it will be the reward for the top three in the clan's adult competition. You must work hard!" Lin Ran made this promise while looking at the younger generations behind him.

This made the younger generations excited. In the tribe, when one reaches the age of seventeen or eighteen, one must participate in the tribe's coming-of-age ceremony and competition test.

This will be the time to decide your future destiny. If you don't perform well, you will not be able to stay in the family anymore, but will have to go out for training and experience, and will not be able to get access to family resources.

If you perform well, you can continue to enjoy the family resources, be assigned a position in the family's industry in Linshan City, and continue your practice.

The most important thing is that only by performing well can you obtain the precious skills collected by the family. When you reach the Taoist realm, you must test your own attributes and choose skills that correspond to your own attributes.

If you don't perform well, you can only go out and get those common skills that are sold on the street, or earn money yourself to buy skills from places like Jinling Chamber of Commerce.

Of course, if there is a great opportunity, you might come across some inheritance from an ancient powerful being, or suddenly pick up a powerful martial arts technique. There is also a chance of this happening, but it is basically the same as the chance of winning the lottery jackpot.

Now, Lin Ran even planned to use Ning Dao Dan as a reward for the top three in the clan competition. This made these young people extremely excited. They stared at the three bottles of Ning Dao Dan on the auction table, as if they were already in their pockets.

PS: This chapter is 4,000 words (I saw many people say that my update was short and weak QAQ). In fact, I have updated quite a lot of words. When I first started reviewing the new book, I was afraid that no one would read it, so I uploaded three chapters at once. I updated 8,000 to 9,000 words a day, which was equivalent to the amount that others had updated in four or five days. I almost wanted to stop, but suddenly found that some people were reading it again, so I continued writing.

But I wanted to save more manuscripts in case there are any emergencies in the future to avoid interruption. If I want to put it on the shelves later, I will have to save more manuscripts.

It just so happens that I have been writing this book for more than a week and a day. Keep working on it, hahaha. I hope you can keep reading it. Thanks?(?ω?)?

Chapter 11 Bronze Block (Please collect)

After a brief lull in the scramble for Ning Dao Dan, more and more people began to bid, because after seeing that the biggest forces, namely the three major families in Linshan City, did not seem to join the competition, they gradually became bolder.

The price soared to 180,000 and is still increasing.

But suddenly, a shout filled with fighting spirit resounded throughout the auction hall.

"My Wang family contributed 185,000!"

As soon as this voice came out, many people couldn't help but turn around and look up at the box above. Hearing that it was the Wang family of Linshan City, many people in the venue couldn't help but sigh with regret. Even if they had enough funds, they didn't have the strength to compete with the three major families. After all, in Linshan City, even the weakest Wang family had many Dao Yuan realm level strongmen in the family.

For a force, although economy is also the source of a family's strength, if there is no armed force to protect money, it is equivalent to not having a gun to protect itself. Even if there is a lot of money, it is difficult to stand upright.

But after the Wang family, one of the three major families, spoke out, people from other forces wisely did not participate in the competition with the Wang family, for fear of being targeted by the Wang family.

Li Yuhan on the stage kept maintaining a charming smile. She was very happy that these people were competing so hard. After all, in her opinion, these people were like fat sheep. If they were slaughtered, a lot of gold coins would pop out.

Li Yuhan asked twice in succession and was about to knock the small hammer in his hand to make the final decision when another sound resounded throughout the venue, but this time it was even louder and much more frightening than the Wang family's.

"My Lin family, Lin Ran, contributed 186,000 yuan."

The auction hall suddenly became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. The name of Lin Ran from the Lin family had been the talk of the town in Linshan City recently. It was unexpected that such a powerful Lingdan realm expert had emerged from their remote Linshan City. Almost everyone who was a gangster in Linshan City knew about the existence of this giant Buddha.

Especially in the last direct battle, not only did they beat the Murong family, but they also took advantage of them and took away two-thirds of the market town.

With such a big Buddha, who would dare to come out and bid for it? Aren’t you afraid that Lin Ran will come and bankrupt you?

In the box where the Wang family was, the head of the Wang family, Wang Cheng, a tall and strong middle-aged man, was so angry that he crushed the wooden handle of the chair. He looked in the direction of the Lin family's box and it took him a long time to catch his breath.

The great elder of the Wang family, a short old man with white hair, couldn't help but sigh and said, "Wang Cheng, forget it, let's give this hand to the Lin family. The Murong family has a strong man in the Spiritual Transformation Realm who was tricked by Lin Ran like this, let alone us."

The Wang family did not choose to continue raising the price, and the people on the field looked at each other, and no one dared to raise the price for a long time. Li Yuhan glared at Lin Ran in the box with some resentment, and reluctantly knocked down the hammer, announcing that the three Ningdao Pills were bought by Lin Ran of the Lin family.

But when he said the name "Lin Ran", he sounded a little more serious.

Lin Ran looked at Li Yuhan below and couldn't help but smile. He certainly knew why Li Yuhan was unhappy with him. After all, after he called the price, no one dared to buy, which affected her auction revenue. But this was just the beginning of tonight.

The next items to be auctioned were some rare weapons and martial arts techniques. Lin Ran seemed to have little interest in these, while the small forces below were the ones fighting for them.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the next item is rather strange. We acquired it by chance and it has been piled in the warehouse. We don't know what it is used for, but after analysis by our appraisers, it looks a bit like some kind of key." Li Yuhan lifted the brocade cloth on the table, and suddenly, a small bronze cube covered with rust appeared in the sight of everyone in the auction hall.

Looking at that small piece of broken iron, there was a lot of booing in the auction hall.

Li Yuhan already knew that this kind of situation would occur in an auction, but since the dust was still there, she might as well take it out and give it a try.

Li Yuhan carefully took the bronze iron block and showed it to everyone from many aspects. Pointing to a pattern in the middle of one side that was almost worn away, she said with a smile: "Although we don't know the purpose of this iron block or what is hidden inside, we think this pattern here may be an ancient relic. If someone is willing to buy it and try it out, maybe what they find inside will cause a sensation in the entire Kyushu continent."

"Shh!"

Many small leaders of various forces sneered at Li Yuhan's words. Some who hoped to win the smile of a beauty were thinking of buying such a piece of rotten iron, maybe they could get the contact information of the beauty.

Of course, not all the people present were ignorant of the value of the goods.

When Lin Ran saw the small bronze block, he was dumbfounded. How could the inheritance key of Saint Emperor Jingyue be here?

Wasn’t it something his son Lin Chong obtained after he went out to gain experience?

Lin Ran thought about it seriously again, and it seemed that it was given by Li Yuhan. It seemed that something suddenly happened to this thing afterwards, and Li Yuhan had a very good relationship with Lin Chong at that time, so she gave it to Lin Chong.

Since the original novel didn't mention this plot much, maybe the film might have failed to be filmed. If that's the case, then I understand.

Lin Ran will not let the key go unsold this time. He will hold it in his own hands and give it to Lin Chong after Lin Chong goes out to gain experience. This can also ensure the development of the plot.

This key is an important prop that connects Lin Chong and the beautiful and cold fairy from the Sword Sect. Although the final inheritance is given to the fairy, it also causes an inexplicable grudge between the two.

Thinking of this, Lin Ran felt that the future was promising. It didn't matter if the main female lead, Lin Hongjia, went astray, there was still the second female lead who could hold on and help Lin Chong in the future and become Lin Chong's virtuous wife. He just had to follow her and drink the soup.

Li Yuhan had thought about this kind of scene earlier, but the scene was still a little scary because it was so quiet, and she didn't want to spend a lot of effort to beautify the item.

If this item is not discovered to be useful, it will indeed be a waste. However, Li Yuhan always feels that it will be of great use in the future, so she offered a relatively high price. If no one bids for it, then just let it go unsold.

"The minimum auction price for this bronze block is 10,000 gold coins, and the minimum bid increase is 1,000 gold coins each time. Please bid!"

As Li Yuhan's voice fell, the auction hall became even quieter. Who on earth would spend 10,000 gold coins to buy a rusty piece of iron that no one even knew whether it was real or fake? Even if one had money, they wouldn't spend it like this.

If swearing doesn't get you "asked to leave", some people would just start swearing and just get rid of this piece of trash.

Li Yuhan looked at the quiet venue and could only sigh helplessly. Just when she was about to say that the item had failed to sell, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Just in case!"

A faint voice broke the silence of the hall. All of a sudden, countless eyes moved in the direction of the voice and finally stopped at the box upstairs. Some complaints also sounded.

"Is this guy mentally ill? He actually plans to spend 10,000 gold coins to buy such a piece of iron and take it home as a decoration?"

"Shh, speak softly, that's the Lin family..."

"Lin family? That's fine. It must be Lin Ran, the head of the Lin family. He has a keen eye and can see the purpose of this ancient treasure."

When everyone gradually found out that it was the Lin family that wanted to buy it, they didn't dare to gossip about it, for fear that they would be targeted by the Lin family.

Always keep in mind the lesson of the Murong family.

"Chief, you..." The great elder looked at Lin Ran in shock. He spent 11,000 yuan to buy such a piece of iron. Even if the money came from the wind, it should not be used like this!

"Well, what do you think, Great Elder? How about I buy one to play with?" Lin Ran glanced at the fat guy next to him. This fat guy was talking too much today. Should he really find an opportunity to have a discussion with him? Why is he talking so much nonsense just for buying something?

The Great Elder sensed the murderous intent in Lin Ran's eyes and quickly said, "No, no, I just think that the clan leader is very capable and must know what this is used for!"

"I don't know, I just think it's fun to watch!" Lin Ran said casually.

The Great Elder: “….”

He thought he'd better stop talking, for fear that he would be angry to death.

The smile on Li Yuhan's face froze for a moment, but soon recovered and said with a smile: "Patriarch Lin Ran bids 11,000. Does anyone want to raise the price?"

After hearing what Li Yuhan said, many people rolled their eyes. Putting aside other things, even if this thing is useful, would anyone dare to raise the price?

Li Yuhan seemed to know that what he said was nonsense, so he smashed the auction hammer in his hand and said, "Congratulations to Patriarch Lin Ran for winning this bronze cube."

Before asking the maid to take back the item, Li Yuhan inadvertently glanced at Lin Ran upstairs. She would go and take over the transaction with Lin Ran in person later. She especially wanted to know what this person wanted to do with the bronze cube, and she also wanted to test this unpredictable guy.

……

PS: There should be another chapter in the evening. Thank you for your monthly tickets. I will read your comments. Thanks?(?ω?)?

Chapter 12: The Last Mysterious Lot (Please Collect)

The auction was still going on. After the bronze block, there were some other good items that attracted the bidding of the people present. Of course, the one that really caused a sensation in the audience was the finale item.

Even Lin Ran was a little surprised that the finale of this auction was actually the low-level earth-grade martial arts, the Thunder Gang Jue, and its matching martial arts, the Nine Dragon Thunder Gang, a thunder-attributed martial arts.
