The Evil King's Favorite: The Princess Is Too Cruel

"Third Young Master, thank you, Steward. This young master said he has something to entrust to our auction house for auction." The attendant lowered his head and said respectfully to the two people in the room.

"Oh?" Manager Xie turned around. When he saw Su Qingning, he was visibly stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Hello, I'm Xie Peng, the person in charge here. I wonder what this young master would like to entrust our Seven Star Auction House to auction?"

Xie? He's from one of the five great families, the Xie family. The Seven Stars Auction House is part of the Xie family, so...

Su Qingning glanced at Xie Yichen who was curled up on the couch out of the corner of her eye, and she had almost guessed his identity.

Just now, the servant called him the Third Young Master. I guess he is the Third Young Master of the Xie family, Xie Yichen, whom Su Muxin often mentioned in her previous life.

He is indeed handsome, no wonder he can make Su Muxin, that naughty kid, become a crazy fan of him.

Su Qingning shook her head in her heart, withdrew her gaze, and no longer paid attention to Xie Yichen.

She thought about it and realized that the only valuable things she had on her were medicinal herbs, so the only things she could auction seemed to be medicinal herbs.

"Medicinal herbs." Su Qingning looked at Manager Xie and said affirmatively.

Hearing Su Qingning's answer, Xie Yichen's smile widened. He wasn't surprised at all that she was auctioning off the herbs. Ever since seeing Su Qingning casually pull out a hundred or so primary and mid-level herbs at Huichun Hall, Xie Yichen had guessed she had even more valuable herbs on her. This was a businessman's intuition.

"So it's medicinal herbs." Manager Xie smiled and said politely, "This must be your first time at our auction house, young master! You might not be familiar with our rules here. The items we auction are all precious items. We don't auction low-level or mid-level medicinal herbs."

In Manager Xie's opinion, a child as young as Su Qingning could only produce primary and intermediate-level medicinal herbs.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Su Qingning nodded slightly, and then took out two imperial-grade medicinal herbs and one holy-grade medicinal herb out of thin air.

"This... this is..." Manager Xie was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Xie Yichen was also stunned for a moment. He guessed that Su Qingning might have high-level medicinal herbs on her, but he didn't expect that the other party would directly take out imperial-level and holy-level medicinal herbs.

Although the imperial-grade medicinal herbs are only two levels higher than the mid-grade medicinal herbs, their value has increased by thousands of times, not to mention the holy-grade medicinal herbs.

Su Qingning placed three medicinal herbs on the table and said calmly, "What I want to auction is a thousand-year-old snow jade ginseng, a three-thousand-year-old fire ganoderma, and a five-thousand-year-old bodhi fruit."

"Hiss..." After listening to the names and years of the medicinal herbs mentioned by Su Qingning, Manager Xie took a deep breath. These were all extremely precious medicinal herbs!

Snow Jade Ginseng is a good medicine for replenishing Qi and blood and beautifying the skin; Fire Ganoderma can improve the cultivation of practitioners with fire attributes; Bodhi fruit can prolong life and increase lifespan; and a five thousand year old Bodhi fruit can increase lifespan by fifty years!

Manager Xie could already foresee the scene of the major family forces and those independent cultivators who were nearing the end of their lives competing for the Bodhi Fruit.

"Young Master, these three medicinal herbs of yours are very precious. Our Seven Star Auction House is willing to accept your commission and auction them for you." Manager Xie showed his most sincere smile, and even turned his address to Su Qingning into a honorific.

"Okay, thank you." Su Qingning nodded lightly.

"No trouble, no trouble." Manager Xie waved his hands repeatedly. He picked up an agreement from the table and handed it to Su Qingning, saying with a smile: "Young Master, please take a look at the entrustment agreement first. If there is no problem, please sign it."

Su Qingning took the agreement and read it carefully. The general meaning was that the Seven Star Auction House would be responsible for auctioning the items she entrusted. After the auction, it would charge her 5% of the profit and then pay her the remaining spirit coins.

Five percent? Su Qingning frowned slightly. It was really dark! However, she had no choice but to accept it.

Su Qingning picked up the pen and signed two words on the agreement: Yun Ning.

She used her mother Yun Ruopiao's surname, and her name was a homophone of the last character of her name.

After signing the agreement, Manager Xie took out a black and gold invitation from his savings ring and handed it to Su Qingning, "Young Master, this is the invitation to the auction in three days. I hope you can attend then."

Su Qingning took the invitation and whispered, "Thank you, I will come."

After receiving the invitation, Su Qingning planned to leave, but before she could say goodbye, Xie Yichen, who was curled up on the couch, suddenly sat up.

He slowly stood up and walked in front of Su Qingning. His fox-like narrow eyes smiled at the child in front of him. His thin lips parted slightly, and a slightly lazy voice rang out slowly, "Hello, young master."

Although Su Qingning didn't like Xie Yichen very much, since he had taken the initiative to greet her, she wasn't someone who didn't know manners, so she replied calmly, "Hello."

"What a coincidence! We've met twice in such a short time today. It's really fate!" Xie Yichen looked at Su Qingning with a smile and said, "Young Master, since we're so destined to meet, how about we become friends?"

After saying that, Xie Yichen didn't wait for Su Qingning's consent and said directly: "My name is Xie Yichen. May I know what the young master's name is?"

After hearing Xie Yichen's self-introduction, Su Qingning's eyes flashed with understanding.

Sure enough, the handsome young man before him was the brilliant business prodigy Su Muxin had spoken of in her previous life. It was said that no matter what it was, in Xie Yichen's hands, it would be transformed into something magical and sold at a sky-high price.

Of course, this is an exaggeration, but thinking of Huichuntang's booming business and the current grand scale of the Seven Star Auction House, Su Qingning believes that Xie Yichen does have a unique talent in business.

Adhering to the idea that one more friend means one more path, Su Qingning decided to put aside her prejudice against Xie Yichen and make friends with him.

"Yun Ning."

These two words were just signed on the agreement, and now Su Qingning had no choice but to use this pseudonym to fool the other party.

Of course, even if she hadn't signed the agreement, Su Qingning didn't plan to tell Xie Yichen her real name because she didn't trust him now.

Moreover, she was also worried that if the Su family knew that she possessed high-grade and holy-grade medicinal herbs, it would inevitably cause a lot of trouble. Therefore, Su Qingning's identity could not be exposed for the time being.

Yun Ning? Last name Yun?

Xie Yichen raised an eyebrow. He couldn't remember any family with the surname Yun in the Demonic Martial Continent. Could she be a disciple of some hidden family? Or was this just a pseudonym?

Xie Yichen guessed that "Yun Ning" might be a pseudonym, but he never associated this name with Yun Ruopiao. After all, everyone in the imperial capital knew that the third wife of the Su family was an orphan brought back by Su Huaijin and had no relatives.
