Chapter 35
Chapter 35: They Went Crazy, They Went Crazy
In the end, Su Yi Chen won the beauty-enhancing pill for 800,000.
Su Mo Er was so excited she nearly jumped. She said happily, “Brother, you’re the best! I knew you’d be able to win it for me.”
Su Yi Chen smiled and said, “As long as you’re happy.”
After that, the auction continued.
The wound-healing pill was about to go up for auction, and the auctioneer began describing its effects in detail.
The starting price was 300,000.
The moment he finished speaking, plenty of people were eager to bid.
“400,000.”
A middle-aged man raised his paddle first.
“800,000.” Zhou Shu Yu joined the bidding.
He doubled the price on the spot!
Zhou Shu Yu’s expression stayed calm, but his eyes never left the wound-healing pill.
Ever since he had experienced the wound-healing pill’s effects, Zhou Shu Yu had caught the scent of a business opportunity. He never expected to run into it at an auction this time.
No matter what, he had to get that pill.
“Doubling it right away? Looks like your brother really wants that wound-healing pill.” Su Qian sat in a distant seat, leisurely eating fruit snacks with interest.
Zhou Ran, at some unknown point, pulled out a bag of sunflower seeds from his pocket and ate with great enjoyment.
“He’s trying to steal our business.”
Zhou Ran spat out a sunflower seed shell, turned to Su Qian, and asked, “Want some?”
Su Qian: “???”
Who in the world cracked sunflower seeds at a high-end auction?!
“…Fine.”
Su Qian hesitated, then reached out and took a small handful of sunflower seeds from Zhou Ran.
As she cracked seeds, she kept watching the bidding for the wound-healing pill.
“850,000.”
Another bidder refused to be outdone and raised the price.
Zhou Shu Yu did not hesitate. He raised his paddle again. “900,000.”
The price climbed quickly. The bidders went back and forth, neither side willing to give an inch.
“950,000.”
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and raised again.
He was doing it for an old injury that had plagued him for years. This wound-healing pill might be his last hope of fully recovering.
So even though the price was already sky-high, he still wanted to fight for one more chance.
Zhou Shu Yu frowned, then raised his paddle again without delay. “1,000,000.”
The moment that number came out, the entire hall went quiet.
Many people sucked in a sharp breath.
One million for a single pill was, without a doubt, an astronomical price.
The middle-aged man hesitated.
In the end, he gave up on bidding.
“Tsk. If someone told me half a month ago that my brother would spend a million on a pill, I’d have thought he’d gone insane.” Zhou Ran clicked his tongue while cracking sunflower seeds.
“A pill for one million!” Su Qian’s eyes gleamed. “We’re rich, we’re rich!”
The fiercer the bidding got, the more excited Su Qian became.
This was all money!
Even more than she had expected.
Su Qian quietly calculated. If the prices kept trending like this, then once today’s auction was over, raising 50 million would be easy.
“I saw quite a few medical families here. Aren’t you afraid they’ll buy the pills back to study them?” Zhou Ran spat out another shell.
Su Qian lifted her brows and said indifferently, “Afraid of what? If they can figure out the ingredients, that’d be the real miracle.”
Su Qian was not worried at all.
After all, these pills came from the cultivation realm.
And the most crucial spiritual herbs and spiritual plants were all in her hands.
The auction continued. Next came the detoxifying pill, heart-nourishing pill, lung-cleansing pill, vision-clearing pill, and other pills, auctioned one after another.
The starting price for each pill was mostly around 300,000.
But the bidders stayed fired up, and the prices kept climbing.
Su Qian and Zhou Ran, two pure spectators, watched with relish. They even started playing a game of “guess the final price – loser buys dinner.”
When the final pill was auctioned off, the event came to a perfect close.
“Tsk, it’s finally over. My butt is numb from sitting.” Zhou Ran stretched lazily.
“So this is what it feels like to make money until your hands cramp?” Su Qian stood up too and rolled her shoulders, loosening her stiff body.
The auction might have ended, but the hall was still bustling.
Those who successfully won pills were all smiles, carefully holding their lots as if they were priceless treasures.
Those who failed to win looked dejected, still asking around about the seller.
They hoped they could find another way to get these miraculous pills.
“Su Qian?”
Su Yi Chen noticed Su Qian, surprise flashing in his eyes.
He hesitated for a moment, then walked over to her.
“Brother-”
Su Mo Er stomped in dissatisfaction.
But Su Yi Chen ignored her and walked straight up to Su Qian.
“Su Qian, I didn’t expect you to come to the auction too.” Su Yi Chen stood in front of her, a hint of confusion in his gaze.
“I was bored, so I came to take a look around.”
With a living, breathing person standing right in front of her, Su Qian could not pretend she hadn’t seen him. She greeted him politely.
Su Yi Chen glanced at Su Qian’s empty hands, thought for a moment, and said, “I won two beauty-enhancing pills and one rejuvenation pill. This beauty-enhancing pill – I’ll give you one.”
As for the rejuvenation pill, it was naturally for Grandfather.
Su Qian was a little surprised. She had not expected Su Yi Chen to give her a pill.
But she quickly recovered and refused with a smile. “No need. You should keep it for someone else.”
She had piles of these pills in her storeroom.
She would not even feel bad eating them like candy.
Su Mo Er’s face reddened with anger.
She charged over and shouted, “Brother, why are you giving such a precious pill to her? What right does she have? We paid a huge price to win it!”
Su Yi Chen frowned, displeased. “Mo Er, don’t be so childish. Su Qian is your sister.”
They were both his biological sisters, yet they could never get along. It gave Su Yi Chen a headache.
Su Mo Er pouted and stopped talking.
She only glared at Su Qian with obvious resentment.
“Do you know what you look like when you’re puffed up like that?” Su Qian looked at Su Mo Er. The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, her tone teasing.
Su Mo Er could not help asking, “Like what?”
Su Qian laughed. “Like a pufferfish. Cheeks puffed out. It’s pretty funny.”
Su Mo Er’s face turned even redder. “You’re the pufferfish! Su Qian, don’t think you can get smug just because Brother is taking your side!”
“Mo Er!” Su Yi Chen’s tone turned stern.
With that scolding, Su Mo Er’s eyes instantly reddened.
She said aggrievedly, “Brother, I was wrong.”
Su Yi Chen added from the side, “Qian Qian, don’t take Mo Er’s words to heart. She’s just been spoiled. Giving you this beauty-enhancing pill was only a small gesture. Just accept it.”
Su Qian refused again. “Really, there’s no need.”
Seeing how firm Su Qian was, Su Yi Chen did not force it.
“Tsk, I’m starving to death.” Zhou Ran rubbed his stomach and muttered, dissatisfied. “Su Qian, can we find somewhere to eat first?”
Su Yi Chen’s gaze paused on Zhou Ran for a moment.
Then he said to Su Qian, “Qian Qian, don’t be too casual. You should be cautious when making friends.”
As he spoke, his eyes flicked toward Zhou Ran on purpose.
