"This is nothing. There's still a lot more to come in the Arad Continent."
Subsequently, the second item for auction was brought to the display stand.
The auctioneer unveiled the red cloth and began to introduce the auction.
"Distinguished guests, the next item for auction is the 'Eye of God'."
This item grants ordinary people special abilities: the power to control fire, condense ice and frost, create mist, command gales, unleash lightning, and solidify solid rocks!
As soon as the auctioneer finished his introduction, a guest in a VIP box raised a question.
"Then how can I be sure that this so-called Eye of God can bring me various special powers?"
The auctioneer pointed to the box where the guest who asked the question was sitting.
"Good question, everyone! Please look, this Eye of God has no color inside."
What abilities it can activate depends entirely on the owner's own desires!
That's right, you can activate it as long as you have a strong desire.
You will gain the corresponding abilities based on your own desires and characteristics!
Distinguished guests! The starting bid for this item is 1 million credits! Each bid must be at least 1000 million credits higher! Bidding begins now!
Excellent! VIP customer number 3 has bid 1.5 million!
VIP customer number 6 has bid 2.3 million!
Anyone else bidding higher? 2.3 million, for the first time!
What?! VIP customer number 11 has bid 3 million!!!
Driven by the auctioneer, the price of the Eye of God was continuously driven up.
Ultimately, it was sold for 6.6 million.
It's worth noting that when Jade acquired the Eye of God from Ningguang, the cost was only 200 million credits.
Once it's resold, it'll fetch 330 times the price!
Although it was expected that the price of the "Eye of God" jadeite would not be low.
Because this world is one with extraordinary power, and people's pursuit of power is incredibly high.
Anything that can enhance one's strength will never be cheap.
Immediately afterwards, one item after another was auctioned off.
The smiles on the faces of Emerald, Gold Sand, and Topah grew even wider.
The credits earned from this auction alone are equivalent to the profits they would have made from acquiring 30 planets.
It's clear that the Strategic Investment Department will have a great time at this month's executive meeting.
As far as they knew, the market development department had only completed market development for 6 planets this month.
Moreover, it's only a matter of opening up the market; it will probably take some time before any profits are generated.
The auction lasted for more than three hours.
After the auction, Jade, Gold, and Topaz compiled the auction records and proceeds and sent them to Diamond and the board of directors.
Inside the company's train carriage.
Sand Gold sat on the sofa with his legs crossed.
"Holding auctions is still the most profitable thing!"
Emerald looked at a clever bird flying past the window and turned her head.
"The money isn't from the auction itself, but from the things we auction off—things that have never existed in our world before."
At that moment, there was a knock on the carriage door.
Upon seeing this, Jade said...
"Please come in."
A little later, the carriage door was opened, and Xiangling poked her head out.
"Sister Jade! Are you all done with your work? Time to eat!"
Upon hearing this, Jade smiled slightly and put down the champagne in her hand.
"Okay, coming right now. What delicious food did you make for me for lunch today, Xiangling?"
Xiangling introduced it with a smile.
"I've made a magical dish. You can try it in a bit, but I don't know if it will be successful."
Emerald and Xiangling walked toward Ye Yundi's carriage.
"Then I'll definitely have to give it a good try!"
After exchanging a glance, Sandkin and Toppa put down their work and followed.
Xiangling's cooking is truly top-notch, far superior to the useless people we pay a fortune to keep in the company.
Ye Yun inside the carriage.
Everyone sat around the dining table, waiting for the meal to be served.
The table was laden with all sorts of delicious food, and just looking at it made one's mouth water.
Beside the dining table, in front of Himeko, was a row of small bowls.
Kafka and Himeko were putting food and rice into a small bowl.
Behind the two, the little elves lined up, drooling and waiting to be fed.
Topa walked over and sat down next to Xing. Looking at Xing, who looked lost and desperate, Topa asked in confusion.
"What's wrong, Xing? What happened?"
Xingtou rested on the table, his hands hanging limply at his sides.
"Sigh~ Don't even mention it, it's all tears~ Suddenly I feel like there's no point in living."
Toppa's lips twitched.
This doesn't sound like what you said.
"So, what exactly happened?"
Xing sighed.
"Sigh~ I only knew that there was a chance of failure when enhancing equipment, but I didn't expect the probability to be so high."
Toppa immediately realized what was happening when he heard Xing kick the enhanced equipment.
"Oh, you went to Kelly's place, right?"
Xing nodded.
"Yes, they're all gone. All the lottery tickets I worked so hard to get today are gone."
Then, my Icefall Meteor only succeeded once!
Silver Wolf, who was curled up on the sofa playing games, said something.
"Ah Xing, remember this: anything related to enhancing equipment is a huge trap."
"I've played so many games, and any game that involves upgrading equipment is a gold-digging machine; it can bankrupt you in no time."
Xing sighed.
"Sigh~ I'm never going to Kelly's place again."
After saying that, Xing looked at Silver Wolf.
"By the way, Silver Wolf, where did you go this morning? I didn't see you at breakfast."
Silver Wolf said upon hearing this.
"Me? Renovating the carriage? I'll be living on the Starry Sky Train from now on, so the carriage needs to be properly renovated, right?"
Beside her, Firefly said with a smile.
"Silver Wolf spent the whole morning setting up the carriage we'll be staying in."
March 7th was a little surprised to hear this.
"That cargo car that Himeko lent you? Wasn't it all empty there? You finished decorating it in just one morning?"
Silver Wolf raised an eyebrow, speaking as if it were just a small matter.
"What's so difficult about that? Painting the walls and dividing the rooms can all be done by robots."
As for furniture and household goods, why not just take them from the company warehouse?
"How much time can it take to decorate just one carriage?"
Toppa was speechless for a moment. "Taking it from the company again?"
Silver Wolf looked up at Toppa and said.
"Don't worry, it wasn't taken from your department's warehouse."
Upon hearing this, Toppa gave a forced smile.
"Really? Well, thank you so much for not messing around with our strategic investment department's warehouse."
The firefly asked the star.
"Xing, what are your plans for this afternoon?"
Xing said upon hearing this.
"Afternoon? No rush. Kiana and Mei have something to do later; they have to teach a class to the students."
We agreed to meet at 3 p.m., and they can stay here for another 2.5 hours.
"Let's go for a stroll in Liyue once they arrive."
Hu Tao, who was eating an apple, chimed in with a grin.
"That's right~ This is the suggestion made by the sect leader."
We're going fishing at Dihua Island, and I, the master of this hall, have even prepared the fishing rods.
Silver Wolf, Firefly, do you want to come along?
Silver Wolf looked uninterested upon hearing this.
"Fishing? Forget it, it's boring. I'd rather stay home and play games. There's an event in the game I play this afternoon, and I have to log in to participate."
Upon hearing this, Hu Tao offered some words of advice.
"Come on, come on, let's go have some fun! What's the point of you staying home all by yourself?"
Let's go, let's go get some fresh air!
Kafka chimed in from the side.
"Hu Tao is right, darling. Don't stay at home playing games all day. Go out more."
Himeko continued.
"Yes, young people should go out more and broaden their horizons."
Silver Wolf rolled his eyes.
"Don't go!"
Seeing this, Hu Tao quickly ran behind Silver Wolf and massaged his shoulders with both hands.
"Come on, come on, let's go play!"
Silver Wolf sighed helplessly.
"Alright, alright, I'll go fishing with you guys, okay? Don't bother me, I'm about to push the crystal."
When Hu Tao saw that Silver Wolf had agreed, she immediately let go of his hand.
"Hehe~ It's a deal then! You'll be going fishing with us in a little while!"
By the way, Firefly, what about you? Want to come along? Have you finished your tasks for today?
