After the screening was completed, one-third of the people did not pass. Originally, there were twenty-five or twenty-six groups of people in the square, but after this screening, there were only seventeen or eighteen groups.
There were suddenly fewer people and the square was empty.
Lu Xingchen secretly observed and remembered those who failed and had to leave, discovering that they were all imposing old men.
That's strange, how exactly does this door screen people?
Not only him, but others also had this question: "Excuse me, what exactly is the standard?"
Master Ji hesitated, "This is Master Babu's instruction. I don't know the details, but it is said that there is an element of recent fortune involved."
A middle-aged man nodded: "Yes, the person who obtains the market construction order is very likely to build the market himself. Luck is particularly important. I remember that this kind of selection was also carried out when the market construction order was auctioned last time."
Lu Xingchen couldn't help but take a second look at the middle-aged man.
This person knows a lot!
Regardless, everyone reluctantly accepted this selection process.
Is there any way to still question Babu?
Why bother with this kind of anger?
Master Lei Jin ignored all of this and left.
He lost interest when he heard that the item to be auctioned was a city construction order, but he stayed a little longer.
Seeing how troublesome the auction process is, I just took the doll and left.
Bubu stayed because of Lanlan.
Lu Xingchen looked at those who stayed and passed the test one by one and felt something was wrong.
Suddenly, she received a message from an unknown number.
It is Chu Hongyi.
Chu Hongyi: "I saw that those who left were all very prestigious. If they were still here, they would be the biggest competitors in the auction!"
Lu Xingchen was startled: "How could you chat with me privately?"
Chu Hongyi: "Hehe, a high-level cross-region chat card! I can chat with you privately without your consent. Duration: 24 hours. Can transfer supplies!"
Lu Xingchen: "Rich woman!"
This advanced cross-region chat card is amazing!
Chu Hongyi: "You know that's good. I've made a huge sacrifice to cooperate with you."
Lu Xingchen quickly changed the subject: "I also feel something is wrong!"
It's just an auction, why make such a fuss?
She felt that from the beginning, the deliberate cover-up of the auction order for the market construction was followed by a hasty auction, leaving no time for other masters to arrive; then came the recent rumor that the auction items were stolen goods; and now the selection process.
One by one, item by item.
They all have the same purpose - to make more competitive people leave!
So, who exactly wanted the order to build this market? They went through layers of screening and used various methods to squeeze out their competitors?
Mr. Ji!
Who is Old Ji helping?
Lu Xingchen suddenly remembered the conversation he had overheard earlier.
Unfortunately, I didn't see that person's face at the time!
Lu Xingchen looked at the people at the scene one by one, but couldn't confirm which one it was.
However, there's no need to worry.
Mr. Ji will definitely let that person pass all levels!
Lu Xingchen slowly shared his guesses.
Chu Hongyi: "Oh no, oh no, I hope you don't get eliminated!"
Ji Lao: "Okay, now, there's one more requirement... The bidder must be at least a sewing apprentice!"
Many people in the audience were angered by what Mr. Ji said:
"Why is there such a requirement? If there was a requirement, why wasn't it stated at the time?"
"So, are you kidding us?"
"It's just an auction. Why do you need a sewing apprentice? Who wants to learn sewing for no reason?"
"Shh, don't talk nonsense, Master Lingguang is here."
Old Master Ji smiled slightly: "Everyone, please don't be angry. It's just that, in addition to the gold coins, the owner of the auctioned item also needs other items for this auction."
Someone asked, "What item?"
Ji Lao: "Haha, those who are qualified can continue to participate in the auction!"
This further eliminated the majority of people.
That's the saying, who would learn sewing for no reason!
Surprisingly, there were six other qualified people present.
Lu Xingchen is one, after all, she is Lingguang—a sewing master.
The other one is Xuanyuan Batian. The reason why Hong Liu has always regarded Ling Guang as her idol is because she learned sewing and has now become a junior sewing artist through self-study.
Luo Jincheng, a middle-aged man, is an intermediate-level seamstress.
The other one was Ji Jiu, who was extremely excited: "Hahaha, it seems that my self-taught sewing is useful after all, hahaha, I'm a sewing apprentice!"
Ji Ba: "Hahaha, my wife is so amazing!"
There is also a silent pirate named Bai Sanshisan, who is said to be a member of the White Swan Pirates and a sewing apprentice.
The last sewing apprentice was stunned.
He was very young, only fifteen or sixteen years old. It was obvious that he came just to join in the fun, but he never expected to make it to the finals.
These people are generally quite young.
Ji Lao chuckled and said, "Alright, the auction begins. 100,000 gold coins, please bid!"
