Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

Number 998 is quite an interesting person.

It seems like he's involved in all the low-priced trinkets.

Sasa paused for a second or two, but no one followed suit.

"Bidder number 998 bid 1000 yuan once, 1000 yuan twice, and 1000 yuan three times. Congratulations to VIP bidder number 998 for winning the first mystery item!"

She called out the price three times, but no one made a bid.

Ye Chen managed to snag a bargain.

It's unbelievable that someone would spend 1000 yuan to buy something at an auction like this.

"Tch, they have the nerve to sell at such a low price, and they even bought a broken box. How tasteless!" The guy next door, number 999, sneered.

"I'm willing. Nobody's money comes from thin air. Can't I be more frugal? Can't I just not want to see my stuff go unsold by the beautiful auctioneer?" Ye Chen retorted nonchalantly.

They didn't deliberately lower their voices when they were arguing.

Even Sasha on stage heard it.

Sasha looked in Ye Chen's direction, a hint of gratitude in her eyes.

It seems that number 998 has helped her out twice.

The others just smiled and remained silent as they listened to their banter.

Number 998 and Number 999 have long disliked each other because of that century-old wild ginseng.

Isn't it normal for them to bicker and argue a bit?

Sasa didn't keep anyone waiting long and immediately brought out the second item for auction.

This turned out to be an opportunity to have dinner with the richest man in the world.

The starting bid is 500 million, and each bid must be at least 10 higher.

Ye Chen was completely dumbfounded. Holy crap, this can actually be auctioned off?

However, to be fair, the opportunity to dine with the richest man is indeed quite rare.

Although Ye Chen wasn't interested, there were quite a few others who were!

Those present were all people of a certain status and position.

Having a meal with the richest man is like directly bridging the gap between you and him and establishing a network of connections.

This isn't a chance to eat; it's an opportunity to meet the richest man and learn from his wisdom.

The profound impact of this cannot be measured in mere millions.

The enthusiasm at the scene showed that people were quite satisfied with the second item.

The bidding price has soared and has already exceeded 1000 million.

Ultimately, this opportunity was auctioned off for a high price of 2500 million. There is no market price for this kind of thing; it's fine if someone thinks it's suitable and bids for it.

Soon, the third mysterious item was brought up for auction.

This presents an investment opportunity in an anti-aging health supplement!

Ye Chen opened his mouth. "Is this something else you've run out of things to auction?"

If all the auction items are these kinds of random, mysterious items, he's probably leaving...

If you want to invest, go directly to venture capital firms. Why are you causing trouble at an auction?

To Ye Chen's surprise, this investment opportunity was auctioned off for a staggering 120 million.

It broke the highest record for tonight's auction.

Are health supplements really that profitable? A mere investment opportunity can fetch such a high price.

The fourth mysterious item was finally not some random opportunity or qualification.

The fourth mysterious item was a palm-sized bronze mirror with Bagua symbols.

"Distinguished guests, our fourth item has a mysterious origin. Don't underestimate this seemingly ordinary little bronze mirror; it has a peculiar characteristic: it doesn't reflect light and doesn't show any image, which defies common scientific sense!"

"Furthermore, if you stare at a bronze mirror for too long, it will give you a sense of disorientation and leave a faint shadow on the mirror's surface that lasts for a while—it's quite magical!"

"Some experts speculate that this closely resembles the legendary demon-revealing mirror!"

Even the "demon-revealing mirror" has appeared—is it real or fake?

Ye Chen stared at the small bronze mirror with some suspicion.

However, based on his knowledge, he couldn't see anything unusual; it looked like an ordinary bronze mirror.

As Sasha finished speaking, someone in the audience scoffed, "Please, she's even brought out a demon-revealing mirror; don't bring out a golden cudgel to auction off later!"

Sasha looked around and said, "Seeing is believing, hearing is deceiving. Now I'll demonstrate it for you myself."

She put on gloves and picked up the bronze mirror to show it off.

The surface of the bronze mirror is smooth, and it is indeed no different from an ordinary bronze mirror.

Then Sasha picked up a powerful flashlight and shone it on the surface of the bronze mirror.

A miraculous scene unfolded: the bronze mirror no longer reflected light!

The beam of the powerful flashlight seemed to penetrate directly into the bronze mirror and be absorbed...

The scene fell silent instantly, and even the person who had just sneered was astonished and opened his mouth wide.

Holy crap, a non-reflective bronze mirror? How did they manage that?

It really didn't reflect any light at all.

This doesn't make sense!

Everyone was shocked, even Ye Chen couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Sasha glanced around. Although the lighting was so bad she could only make out the faces of the people in the front row, that was enough.

She was quite pleased with the shocked expressions on everyone's faces.

That's the effect that auctions aim for.

Sasha tapped the bronze mirror with her finger: "Distinguished guests, please listen. This is the sound of metal, not some special light-absorbing material."

Sasha then pointed the bronze mirror at the waiter holding the tray.

The waiter stared at the bronze mirror for about half a minute, then his body went limp and he collapsed to the ground, dropping the tray.

Two more waiters immediately came up and helped her off the stage.

Sasha then showed the bronze mirror to everyone again: "Distinguished guests, please take a look!"

Ye Chen's pupils contracted.

Ye Chen's eyesight was so good that he could see a faint shadow on the bronze mirror!

Ye Chen stared at the mirror for a while, feeling a bit dizzy, as if he was about to get carsick.

He quickly looked away.

Holy crap, what is this thing? Even he feels dizzy just looking at it.

Gasps of cold air rose from the crowd.

"Holy crap, this is interesting!" someone murmured.

Sasha carefully put away the small bronze mirror and smiled, saying, "Everyone has seen the magic of the bronze mirror; I wasn't exaggerating!"

"Now, esteemed guests, please begin the auction. The starting price is 500 million, and each bid must be at least 10 higher!"

For some reason, now that everyone hears this price, they actually think it's quite reasonable!

This magical ability alone is worth the price!

At this point, I doubt anyone would disagree that it's a demon-revealing mirror...

This mirror is truly extraordinary, beyond people's comprehension.

Before anyone could react, the bidding information for number 999 had already appeared on the public screen.

Bid number 999 is 5000 million!

This price immediately brought everyone back to their senses.

Sasha was also slightly taken aback. She had actually offered 10 times the price. Was she trying to cause trouble?

But she likes it!

Sasha grinned and shouted, "VIP number 999 has bid 5000 million!"

Ye Chen frowned slightly upon hearing the price. He had also wanted to bid, but this guy suddenly raised the price so high. What did that mean?
