Chapter 53 What a bad luck
Mu Qingxin snorted coldly. It seemed that the shopkeeper was still concerned about the strength of the royal family and did not dare to be so arrogant.
Thinking of this, Mu Qingxin felt better. She turned around and bowed slightly to appear very polite.
"Thank you very much, boss."
He turned to the dragon and said, "Go back now and bring back two million gold coins."
"Yes, I obey your command."
Yun Guiyue looked at Su Mu in surprise. It was rare to see this show-off being kind-hearted.
The latter seemed to have heard her thoughts, turned around and gave her another coquettish look.
Yun Guiyue is now immune to it, and just thinks that his eyelids are twitching easily.
Treating him as a patient, Yun Guiyue instantly felt less uncomfortable.
Su Mucai responded to Mu Qingxin's words, "Your Highness, there is no need to be so polite. After all, everyone who comes is a guest, and we at the auction house must treat them with courtesy.
Ladies and gentlemen, our auction tonight needs to be paused for a moment because the rules of our auction house require settlement on the spot.
In order to avoid violating the auction house's rules and to save the princess's reputation, we will wait until she brings the gold coins back before continuing the auction. Do you have any objections?"
"What? How long do we have to wait to get it back? And...what if we can't get it back?"
"I have things to do at home, and I'm still preparing the next healing pill. I can't wait any longer."
"Boss, can we proceed with the next auction first?"
Everyone was dissatisfied and complained, but no one dared to say a word against Mu Qingxin, which shows her influence over the years.
Yun Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and sat down, saying sarcastically, "Everyone knows that the rules of this auction house are that the settlement is on the spot. You don't have that much money on you, so why are you just calling out a price? It's really bad luck."
"Shut up!"
Mu Qingxin roared angrily, and her ferocious appearance scared everyone in the auction hall so much that they dared not speak anymore.
She wondered how that bitch could be so kind that she was willing to wait for her to come back with the money. It turned out that she was waiting for her here.
Mu Qingxin's chest heaved, she was extremely angry. She looked at Yun Xiaoxiao and said sarcastically, "Can your Yun family really come up with that much money? You've just been bidding nonsense!"
Everyone realized what was happening and thought, oh yes, the Yun family just said that they wanted to sell the house, which meant that the money they had on them was not enough, so how could they dare to ask for such a high price.
Or was she originally deceiving Princess Qingxin just to make her spend more money?
Everyone suspected many possibilities in their hearts, thinking that Yun Xiaoxiao could not be so bold as to tease Princess Qingxin, but they heard Yun Xiaoxiao suddenly chuckle:
"You guessed it right. I just want Mu Qingxin to spend more money. Don't you think Princess Qingxin has the same idea?"
Everyone was even more puzzled. This was obviously a struggle between the royal family and the Yun family. They were all ordinary people, so it would be better for them not to get involved.
Thinking of this, everyone fell silent and dared not speak anymore. The auction hall fell into silence for a while.
Yun Guiyue tapped the table with her fingertips, drank spiritual tea, and looked relaxed and comfortable. However, in Mu Qingxin's eyes, this look turned into a provocation.
She turned around and said, "Alchemist, please... could you please return the mane pig inner elixir and my whip that you stole from me?
There's a third-rank alchemist in the palace. If you hadn't stolen the Maned Boar's inner elixir, we'd have obtained the Twin Lotuses and refined the Soul-Breaking Pill, and we wouldn't have to fight with the Yun family for it."
