The World of Beasts: Snake, I am the mother of all dragons

After taking a look around the impenetrable box, Bai Luoluo pursed her lips and smiled, "So that's how it is, there's a shill!"

"It seems that Lie Xiaotian is planning to return empty-handed today!"

On the other side, Jin Zishan silently stopped knocking, thinking that Bai Luoluo should understand what he meant.

Today, Lie Xiaotian either has to spend a high price to buy some unnecessary things, or return home disappointed.

By then, the news that Lie Xiaokong returned empty-handed would make the whole city laugh for a while.

Ding--

Unexpectedly, Bai Luoluo rang the alarm again.

Jin Zishan raised his head, his eyes revealing a hint of surprise and thought. Then he raised his hand to stroke his gray beard, a smile of slight appreciation appeared on his face, and he shook his head slightly.

"Master, Miss Bai Luoluo hasn't received the news, I'm afraid it's not..."

"Ah, this kid, I originally thought she was just young and hot-headed, deliberately making things difficult for Lie Xiaotian to vent her anger."

"I didn't expect her to be so thoughtful. She picked out things she really needed. And didn't you see the people down there?"

"The people down there?"

Looking along the way, the originally warm and tense atmosphere at the auction site had disappeared with the sound of bidding.

The customers sitting in the rows of seats below the stage suddenly discovered that the city lord, who was usually so majestic and had the final say in Beast City, was silent in his private room.

"What's going on? I saw the bidding was fierce earlier, why is it so quiet all of a sudden?"

"Needless to say, this price is 30% higher than the market price. You'd be a fool to add more."

"Ah? Those people in the third-floor box are really losing money, right?"

"I don't think so. Haven't you noticed that they always bid on whatever goods they sell? They're so rich and powerful, and it seems they don't care about the reputation of the city lord and the major families at all. I think a big Buddha has come to Beast City."

Such a conversation was also taking place in the private room of the noble family.

"Damn it, who on earth is this person? He's so arrogant! He doesn't even give my Tuoba family any respect and even dares to take our things away."

"Yeah, I've never seen anyone dare to raise the price so recklessly at this auction. Who is this person? Is he some powerful figure from outside? Mr. Jin is really good at keeping things to himself."

ding ding ding-

Amidst the discussions of the crowd, the bell for raising the price continued to ring, as if announcing to everyone the dominance and unruliness of the owner of the box.

This also makes the auction even more confusing. Everyone is guessing the identity of this mysterious figure. Who has the courage and confidence to act like this in the territory of Beast City?

"Could it be that old man Jin Zishan's people did this on purpose? After all, this auction is held by the Jin family. If they were bidding on it themselves, it would make sense for them to want to keep all the good stuff at home and drive up the market price."

One of the young men whispered a guess, but the patriarch behind him shook his head in refutation.

"That's impossible. Although Jin Zishan is known for his love of money, he's still a very principled person. His Jin family has run this auction for many years, relying on integrity and fairness. That's why they have such a reputable position in Beast City."

"How could he do such a thing as directing and acting in his own show? Besides, it wouldn't do him any good. If it got out, the Jin family's reputation would be ruined. Who would dare to attend their auction in the future? It's not worth it."

"But what if it's for Jin Zilin? Isn't it just to avenge Lie Xiaotian that Mr. Jin secretly sent us the invitation and request? If we can snatch Lie Xiaotian's treasure, we can enjoy a 20% discount."

After hearing this, the people around fell into deep thought. It was indeed possible.

After all, in this Beast City, each of the major families holds a pivotal position. In daily life, everyone will consider each other's face, be courteous to each other, and will not offend easily.

"It can't be a powerful family from outside, right? They have never seen the world, are stupid and have a lot of money?"

"..." The family heads fell silent. It was possible, after all, wasn't it Lingxi, the witch priest who parachuted in more than 30 years ago?

But this made everyone even more curious. Who could it be that could stir up trouble at the auction so recklessly and not take the forces of all parties into consideration at all?

Noticing the weakening trend in the bidding, the old goat said in surprise, "Are you taking advantage of the situation?"

Especially after Bai Luoluo rang the bell, those who knew what was good for them stopped bidding, which in turn caused the prices of the subsequent auction items to not go up.

"What do you think? Did you underestimate me, Old Ginger?"

"I'm blind," the old goat said self-deprecatingly, "but they've got all the herbs in one sweep. They're really hard to figure out."

Hearing this, Jin Zishan's mind flashed with the thoughts of the potions that Bai Luoluo had given him before. If the effects were real, Jin Zishan turned to look at the old man Shan Yao standing beside him and gave instructions seriously.

"Go to the warehouse and check the inventory. If there are any that are of better quality, pick some out and send them to that young VIP. This girl is no ordinary girl. We must make a good friend of her."

The old man Shan Yao bowed slightly, replied "yes", then turned and walked quickly towards the warehouse.

At the same time, inside the box.

Amber looked at Bai Luoluo's fingers tapping constantly, and walked forward with concern and reminded her in a low voice.

"Luoluo, does our family really need so much?"

Amber's face was full of worry. After all, anyone who saw the way money was spent like water would feel uneasy.

Although she didn't know the specific prices in Beast City, Amber understood that these things must be very expensive.

"At worst, we can just leave Conis here as a pawn. A seventh-rank young city lord should be worth some money." Bai Luoluo joked. Just thinking about a seventh-rank bodyguard meant he was worth a lot of money.

"Don't worry, Amber. Don't forget that Blood-Quenching Warming Jade Mine we had back then. It's very valuable. The bottle we used is just of average quality."

"Not to mention, we still have the flesh and blood of high-level giant beasts at home. If the cubs didn't want to eat it, I could make more room to store fresh ones."

"There are also the rare fruits we robbed from the oasis. They are in short supply and can increase one's lifespan."

"Oh, I almost forgot, there's this."

Piles of bills were taken out from the space and placed casually on the table, looking quite spectacular.

Therefore, whether she is making trouble and raising the price or bidding sincerely, she has sufficient capital and does not have to worry about being short of money.

Amber came over curiously, and when his eyes fell on the astonishing numbers on the bill, his mouth suddenly opened slightly and he couldn't help muttering to himself.

"Luoluo, I must be dreaming! Our family... is so rich!"
