Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

After all, he's a nouveau riche, never seen the world, and needs to work on his demeanor.

He didn't have anything he wanted to film; he just wanted to broaden his horizons and see how rich people have fun.

If I see something I like, I might as well take a picture of it.

He still has some money on hand.

Presumably, the items put up for auction are all top-quality pieces.

So Ye Chen paid the deposit directly. As for the verification of funds, it wasn't as troublesome as he had imagined. He just had to upload a screenshot online.

This is where things become less formal; anyone could probably just Photoshop a picture.

However, I doubt anyone would be so bored as to play this kind of photo editing game.

After all, the 10 yuan deposit was a real sum paid out, and it would only be refunded 7 working days after the auction ended.

Ordinary people wouldn't spend 10 yuan to play such a boring game!

The so-called capital verification is probably just a formality.

Ye Chen quickly completed the operation and received an electronic digital number plate: 998!

Not 688, not 888, just the 998 from 998.

If the number plates are issued according to the number of participants, it proves that there are quite a few people participating in the auction.

There is also an entrance QR code at the bottom.

At that time, you should only need to scan a QR code to enter.

In the morning, Ye Chen went to the traditional Chinese medicine clinic and took the opportunity to teach Li Wenlong his body-refining method.

As for his youngest apprentice, Qi Lirong, he had class today, so he didn't plan to call on her for the time being.

Furthermore, it's unknown whether body tempering will have any impact on body shape.

just in case......

What if it gets thicker and bigger?

It's okay for a guy to have some large, muscular parts, but she's a girl after all, and I don't know if it's appropriate.

Ye Chen couldn't even imagine what that scene would be like.

Let's be more cautious.

The safest approach is for him to undergo a phase of body training first and observe the effects.

If it really doesn't have much of an impact on her physique, then let her decide for herself whether or not to train.

In the afternoon, the news of the villa fire finally came out, and the cause of the fire was attributed to improper use of fire.

Finally, a reminder to everyone to use fire responsibly and safely.

When Ah Long saw that the deceased was the owner of the Western medicine clinic, he almost set off a string of firecrackers to celebrate.

Heaven has eyes!

This kind of person deserves it!

That Western medicine clinic was closed all day today, without any explanation.

Just like last time, it suddenly closed down.

If they close down a few more times, the local people will probably be too afraid to seek medical treatment from them.

Of course, a large number of people have stopped going to that Western medicine clinic for treatment during this period.

After all, every time I went to that clinic, I received a huge bag of medicine.

Now they have other options, and they have begun to try traditional Chinese medicine treatments!

The results showed that the money spent was minimal, yet the treatment was quite effective!

So, over time, the TCM clinic actually managed to steal a portion of the customers from the Western medicine clinic.

Unless one of them moves away or goes out of business, the conflict between them will continue.

"Brother Ye, now that the owner of that shop is dead, does that mean we have no competitors here?" Ah Long asked Ye Chen.

Ye Chen shook his head: "What are you thinking? I need to correct you on one point. Whether from the perspective of ordinary people or from the perspective of us medical professionals, competition is a good thing. A lack of competition is not a good thing!"

"Yes, Brother Ye!" Ah Long nodded. "Healthy competition can promote the development of enterprises. I learned about this in a book. Ordinary people can also have better choices. There is harm in comparison, which is relatively easy to understand. I'm referring to vicious competition!"

Ye Chen gave a thumbs up approvingly: "Yes, that's exactly what I mean. It's certainly a good thing that there's no cutthroat competition, but we shouldn't be too happy that we don't have any competitors. We still need to think about doing better, building a reputation, and making a name for ourselves. Otherwise, we'll easily end up like that Western medicine clinic."

"Besides, as I mentioned before, that Western medicine clinic has powerful backers. The owner is just someone on the surface; who knows, they might send someone else over later!"

Ah Long was dumbfounded: "Oh, is that so? I was so happy for nothing! I thought that guy's dead would be the end of it all!"

"Brother Ye, do you know who's behind this?" Ah Long asked curiously.

Ye Chen shook his head: "These kinds of people usually don't show themselves on their own initiative. They usually delegate tasks to trusted subordinates. There are probably only a handful of people who know their true identities."

"Well, I was wondering who this person was!" Ah Long sighed.

Ye Chen looked into the distance, his eyes narrowing slightly. He also wanted to know who this person was.

He just had a lot on his plate and didn't have the time to waste on it.

It takes time and patience to call someone by tracing their phone line.

It would take at least several days to follow the clues step by step, and a certain amount of luck would also be required.

Otherwise, even if they staked out for ten days or half a month, they probably still wouldn't be able to find the other party's key figures.

It's possible that the big boss behind them isn't even in this city.

Ye Chen had staked out several people before, and he had gained experience from it. He knew that staking out someone required time, luck, and, most importantly, an invisibility pill...

Especially the invisibility pills, they're incredibly precious!

There are only ten trading opportunities a day, and an invisibility pill only lasts for half an hour.

Even if he used all of them to exchange for invisibility pills, he would only be invisible for 5 hours.

Ye Chen originally didn't want to do something that was time-consuming, laborious, and expensive.

But what must be faced will eventually have to be faced; a short, sharp pain is worse than a long, drawn-out one.

He had previously thought that changing the boss would automatically resolve the accumulated conflicts, but it seems he was overthinking it!

As long as the other party's KPIs are not canceled, the conflict between the two parties will certainly not be resolved.

If the other side sends another person, it will be another round of endless fighting.

Ye Chen didn't want to engage in endless battles with these little Karami.

That's such a waste of time and energy. Wouldn't it be better to use that time to quietly cultivate oneself?

Of course, there is another way to quickly find out who is behind this: stir up trouble, make things bigger, and if once doesn't work, do it twice, and if twice doesn't work, do it three times.

However, that would undoubtedly attract widespread attention from the outside world.

This is not what Ye Chen wants to see either; he doesn't want to be completely exposed yet.

It seems I need to plan this matter carefully.

I'll take some time to find out who the mastermind behind this is.

"Ah Long, go buy me a slightly better suitcase, I need it tonight!" Ye Chen said, changing the subject.

"Suitcase? The kind that can hold people?" Ah Long's eyes lit up.

Ye Chen rolled his eyes: "We're respectable people, so our suitcases naturally have a proper purpose. Besides, using suitcases to carry people is outdated; nowadays everyone wants a complete package!"

"Oh, okay, what size and what color do you want?" Ah Long said.

"Black, a moderate size, not too big, and not too eye-catching!" Ye Chen pondered for a moment.

The auction announcement stated that gold could also be traded, at a standard price of 1000 yuan per gram.

This price is definitely high, so he plans to see how things go tonight.
