Ang Lee's mind was buzzing.
He reached out and took the soft pajamas. The touch was delicate, but it couldn't alleviate the sense of absurdity in his heart.
Then, the spatial soul tool ring on his hand flashed, and he put the pajamas inside.
After much deliberation, he gritted his teeth and finally spoke.
"Lord owner."
"The heads of the four major powers in Soto City are all present at today's auction."
“The branch hall master of the Spirit Hall, the garrison commander, the city lord, and the master of the Great Spirit Arena.”
He listed them one by one.
"Are you sure you want to put this up for auction?"
He stared at Ning Liu, his eyes filled with seriousness.
"My lord, I'm only doing this for your own good."
"This auction concerns the reputation of Qibao Auction House, and even more so, the face of you, a member of the Ning family."
"Use... a nightgown as the grand finale?"
Ang Lee knew the consequences of his words.
After all, the other party is the owner of the venue, so even if he wants to fire him, it's not complicated.
All you need to do is submit a list to the sect, and then select another person to represent them.
but……
But he felt that Ning Liu was too confident, even a bit...reckless.
Should we auction off a nightgown? Or should it be the grand finale?
This is practically pushing Qibao Auction House into a fire pit.
He's going all out!
Not uttering the words "pink bunny ears" was already a great effort of restraint.
Ning Liu was taken aback upon hearing this.
Looking at Li An's flushed face and the worry and loyalty in his eyes, he felt more certain.
He is a good person.
They dare to speak frankly and offer honest advice, and are not the kind of subordinates who only know how to flatter.
However, changing it is impossible.
"They're all here?"
Ning Liu waved his hand, his tone calm, seemingly unconcerned about Li An's advice.
"That's perfect."
"Now that everyone who's supposed to come has come, there's even less to worry about them failing to sell."
As he finished speaking, a hint of confidence even appeared on his face.
"Never mind that, let's go to the auction house first."
"Perhaps it hasn't even started yet, and there are still people bringing things to auction."
Li An's worries did not lessen as he listened to Ning Liu's words, but Ning Liu had already made a decision, and he could only follow it!
"It's almost time."
Ning Liu said, then got up and walked out of the room.
"I'm going to the auction house owner's room."
Ang Lee stood there, watching Ning Liu's retreating figure, feeling utterly lost and dejected.
He really didn't know how this auction would end.
He started walking and followed, his steps heavy.
Meanwhile, the auction hall was bustling with noise.
The huge auction hall was packed to capacity.
Flander, along with Tang San, Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun, couldn't find a place to sit side by side, so they had to sit down in a scattered manner.
But this is for the best.
If you have anything you want to auction, you can take it now.
Then, he looked around, a look of surprise on his face.
This scene is indeed quite impressive.
Almost all the prominent figures in Soto are here.
He turned and glanced at the students; only Tang San was sitting relatively close to him.
Tang San was also reminded by this scene and made a decision in his heart.
The next moment, Flander left in a hurry.
Tang San also got up and walked towards the backstage of the auction house.
A moment later.
Ning Liu was already seated in the auction house's main room on the second floor.
He looked down at the auction hall, which was bustling with people, and was quite satisfied.
Then, he pressed the microphone in front of him.
"Steward Li, we may begin!"
The sound was transmitted through a microphone to Ang Lee's ears backstage.
Ang Lee responded.
"Yes, Master."
He then took a deep breath and composed himself.
He just received news that someone has put two more good items up for auction.
He couldn't help but think that at least most things were good.
Even if the final auction item isn't great, it won't be too embarrassing.
Afterwards, Ang Lee straightened his clothes and walked towards the auction stage.
The lights went out for a moment, then came back on, and Ang Lee stood on the auction stage with his signature smile on his face.
The noise in the auction hall gradually subsided.
"Distinguished guests, esteemed Soul Master friends."
"Welcome to Qibao Auction House."
His voice, amplified by the soul guide device, resounded throughout the entire venue.
"This auction is the first auction held by Qibao Auction House since Master Ning took over."
“We have put a tremendous amount of effort into contacting all parties and preparing unprecedentedly exciting auction items for everyone.”
Li An paused for a moment, then raised his voice.
"I believe today's auction will be very exciting!"
"Now, I declare the auction officially open!"
"Please welcome the first item to be auctioned!"
As he finished speaking, two servants carried a tray onto the auction stage.
On the tray, a simple, antique box lay quietly.
Ang Lee walked to the tray and opened the box.
There was a ring inside.
The ring has a simple design with some ancient patterns engraved on its surface.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the first item to be auctioned is a spatial soul tool!"
Ang Lee's voice carried a hint of excitement.
"This spatial soul tool is called the Mystic Orchid Ring."
"Crafted primarily from rare sapphire jade and space stone."
"According to research, it came from the hands of an ancient master of soul tools."
