Zero pollution increase in food?

Qin Yiyi paused, but the marquis's daughter seemed afraid that she would also get the news. She turned her head and said fiercely, "This is the information I want to buy. You are not allowed to hear it!"

Qin Yiyi: ?

There are fools every year, but there seem to be more this year than ever.

Without even looking up, she strode away.

The marquis's daughter looked down at him and took a gold coin from her pocket, placing it on the table.

"This is your reward. Now, tell me, where can I buy zero-pollution enhancement food?"

Jin, the younger brother, glanced at the single gold coin with disdain. He thought the marquis's daughter was foolish and rich, but she only pulled out one gold coin. How could it compare to the big shot who had casually given him 20 gold coins before? He subtly curled his lip, but wasn't this the huge poster hanging outside the auction house, saying it was going to be auctioned?

This gold coin was earned quite easily.

This is the information gap.

He gave a "simple and honest" smile.

"Honorable guest, the Black Rose Auction House will be auctioning food items that boost health, stamina, and attack power with zero contamination the day after tomorrow. You are welcome to take a look!"

"I heard there are quite a few available; you could try to get them!"

Ivy's eyes lit up. That way, she could use the gold coins to bid, then go to the City of Mist and take it all in one fell swoop...

Even if she were to completely annihilate her remaining forces, her father wouldn't punish her. It was just like when she provoked the Ye Qin Earl's Mansion, took advantage of the Qin family's weakness, and conspired with others to hand the Qin family over, then she...

Thinking this way, she felt that she was extremely smart, her plan was flawless, and that God was always looking out for her.

That's true, after all, she's the daughter of a marquis!

Her confidence returned.

Ivy nodded.

"I understand, your reply is pretty good!" She originally wanted to give the goblin another gold coin, but then she remembered that she had to auction off the remaining thousand gold coins.

Forget it, let's save where we can. Besides, she already tipped me 1 gold coin, that's enough!

She turned and left the room.

The old goblin rolled his eyes.

he,tui

What is it?

He clutched the things Qin Yiyi had given him, preparing to communicate with various mercenary groups. Knowing about the reward, he weighed the money bag in his hand. This was a big client, spending over three hundred gold coins at once to gather information. Unlike that poor wretch from before.

Storm City, Inner Quarter, Hans Auction House

Dozens of muscular men stood there, while a skinny man holding an iron rod stood in front of them.

"What did I tell you? Keep an eye on Black Rose. And now Black Rose has made such a big splash, and you didn't even know! You bunch of useless trash!"

All the muscular men stood with their hands behind their backs, heads bowed, not daring to speak.

In front of these muscular men who were all over 1.8 meters tall, the man who was only 1.7 meters tall and weighed just over 100 pounds was as weak as a chick, but the group of muscular men in front of him didn't dare to move.

"Immediately find out who's been coming and going at the Black Rose Auction House lately, and also find someone to infiltrate the place!"

One of them spoke timidly, "We... all the nails we drove in have been removed. Some were killed, and others were maimed and thrown into the moat to be eaten by sharks."

"It's an artificial shark kept by the Black Rose Auction House. I heard their young lady is back!"

"Yes, Miss brought Xichuan here. Now, the one in charge of the Black Rose Auction House is not Uncle An, but the heir of their Black Rose Chamber of Commerce!"

No wonder...

The man, who had just been angry, instantly changed his expression.

Lilith, that ruthless woman, originally entrusted Black Rose to her younger brother by her father, so Hans didn't take Black Rose seriously at all and quickly seized the market. Who knew...

Lilith, this woman, severely injured her younger brother and father through self-harm, and personally took over Black Rose. In the battle, she risked losing one hand and directly grabbed the knight's longsword and plunged it into her brother's chest. Her brother is still lying in the intensive care unit!

He knew about the news, but he didn't expect Lilith to arrive so quickly...

A dark glint flashed in the thin man's eyes.

The underground city's night light comes from cracks in the ground. It's impossible to use giant generators to supply electricity during the day, so it barely operates on the light that shines through the cracks in the ground. In the underground city, the places where you can see light are extremely expensive locations.

Qin Yiyi looked at the moonlight shining through, and then at the woman in front of her who was dressed beautifully but whose hands were wrapped in bandages.

The girl opposite me—or rather, the woman—was mature and beautiful, with a curvaceous figure, golden curly hair, and a black rose ornament in her hair.

She is Ms. Lilith, the owner of the Black Rose Trading Company.

"I'm so sorry, but due to special circumstances, even after eating food with zero pollution amplification, my hand still needs to be bandaged for a week to recover. Time is of the essence, so I have no choice but to meet you in this inappropriate state."

Qin Yiyi and Lilith looked at each other, and the two women shook hands.

They were soon chatting and laughing inside the room.

"Right now, others are begging us for zero-pollution-increase-rate food, so I think we can raise our starting bid again!"

"Then let's raise it to 180?" Qin Yiyi tentatively suggested. She wasn't really sure about the market price, since she had never heard of such a price in Chaotic City and wasn't sure what it was.

"Starting the bid at 200 gold is already quite generous. Three for 200 gold each, each granting +5 to health, stamina, and attack power. They'd sell for 50 gold each elsewhere, so buying all three for only 200 gold is incredibly kind of you!"

Ah~ Oh, really?

Qin Yiyi nodded.

Lily said without any politeness, "Raising the bar a bit will filter out a group of people and leave only the most outstanding ones. And among this most outstanding group of people, I have created a super gift package!"

Ten sets of seaweed rice rolls, ten sets of steamed buns, and ten sets of fish balls, thirty in total. My starting bid is three thousand gold coins!

Even Nishikawa was somewhat shocked.

"Young Miss, this is twice the usual price!"

It's just the starting price; are you sure someone will sell it?

Lily remained completely calm.

"Think about it yourselves. When severely injured, you only need one food item that provides +5 health with zero pollution. Without that, how many +1 or +2 food items would you need? How do you calculate the price? Also, the attack power of marine fish genes is doubled. Haven't you considered that? Is it really as simple as 1+1? So how could our price be just 1+1?"
