Chapter 655: Bidding Qualifications for the Longevity Pill

Mr. Li was overjoyed, and Doctor Zhao beside him also carefully took Mr. Li's pulse.

"Doctor Zhao, what's wrong with my father?"

Young Master Li asked anxiously. After a while, Doctor Zhao replied, "Master Li's condition has temporarily stabilized. This longevity pill is indeed a miracle drug! I just don't know what medicinal ingredients were used to refine it to achieve such miraculous effects..."

Doctor Zhao was very curious about the recipe of the longevity pill, but he also knew that it was impossible for it to be passed down. It was a blessing for him to see the effect of the medicine with his own eyes today.

When Master Li heard about the longevity pill, his eyes widened. "Longevity pill? Did I just take the longevity pill?"

Young Master Li replied, "Dad, a distinguished guest upstairs just now sold us a longevity pill, which saved your life."

After saying this, he turned to the waiter beside him and asked, "Could you tell me who the distinguished guest upstairs is? I'd like to thank him in person."

The waiter said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Li, but you don't want to reveal your identity."

Young Master Li was a little disappointed, as was Mr. Li beside him. They wanted to say something more, but then Manager Chen interrupted the conversation and prepared to continue with the next auction.

Mr. Li had no choice but to ask his men to take out two thousand taels of silver and give it to the waiter to pay for the longevity pill.

The waiter took the banknote and went upstairs. Many people looked at his back and were really curious about who was behind him. He could sell the longevity pill so readily, so he must have more than one. Unfortunately, in Ruyuan Tower, it was difficult to find out the news about the distinguished guests upstairs.

After a while, the waiter delivered the banknotes to the private room where Si He and Yue Fuli were.

The longevity pills were what they sold. Their main purpose was to see if there were any problems with the effects of the pills that Chang Ling had sent.

Seeing the banknotes brought by the waiter, Si He felt that she had gained more than she had given on this trip.

Because of this sudden incident in Ruyuan Tower, many people witnessed the effect of the longevity pill firsthand, so that the auctions of some subsequent items were not so enthusiastic. Most people were discussing this topic and looking forward to the final auction of the longevity pill.

After half an hour, we finally reached this stage.

Originally, there were thirty-five companies participating in the longevity pill transaction, but due to changes in the situation in recent days, thirty-five more campaign numbers have been temporarily added.

The extra 35 numbers are all from the Yue family army.

This was not Yue Fuli's idea, but the wish of his subordinates. They also wanted to bid for a longevity pill. After all, this was a life-saving pill that might be used at any time.

Among them were some generals, Taoist Guye and others, who relied on the power of the Yue family and easily participated in the bidding for the longevity pill. However, the fees still had to be paid.

For Ruyuanlou, it was a win-win situation as they earned some extra 'entrance' fees, but for the 35 families who came before, it was bad news. After all, with so many people suddenly joining in, the probability of them being able to buy the longevity pill was greatly reduced!

But they didn't dare say much. If it were someone else, it would be easy for them to boycott together. They had done so before and tried their best to protect their interests.

But these are people from the Yue family army. Now the entire Zhongzhou has become the territory of the Yue family. The Yue family has the final say in this city. They dare not offend such a powerful force and can only grit their teeth and endure it.

At this moment, Manager Chen on the high platform downstairs had someone bring a large basin with a bunch of small wooden balls in it. Each ball was almost the same size, slightly smaller than an egg, with numbers written on them, and each number represented the buyer behind it.

However, apart from these buyers and Ruyuanlou, outsiders have no idea which company these numbered balls represent. This also protects the customers' information and makes it unknown who finally bought the longevity pills.

When drawing the number balls, it is also fair and just. The balls are placed in a large basin, and the waiter is blindfolded. Then he uses a large spoon to randomly pick out the wooden balls. This operation is done in full view of the public and no one can tamper with it, which shows fairness.

However, unlike the previous two times, this time there are a full seventy number balls in the basin!

The competition is too fierce. With half more people, the probability is greatly reduced.

However, the people in the lobby downstairs only just realized that there were so many more people bidding for the longevity elixir this time. But based on the recent situation, it was not difficult to guess who these newcomers were.

Apart from the people in the Yue Family Army, they couldn't think of any reason why Ruyuan Tower suddenly had so many people. You know, not everyone can participate, just like the old master Li before was not qualified. He would be strongly rejected by the major families. After all, it would infringe on their interests.

At this moment, when the people in the lobby saw so many number balls, they immediately started discussing it heatedly, and it was very lively.

Especially the Li family father and son, when they saw the new candidates, they sighed in their hearts. The more they felt the extraordinary effect of the longevity pill, the more they desired it. Although they were lucky enough to buy one pill just now, no one would think that there were too many life-saving things. Unfortunately, they had no background.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted: "How can we participate in the purchase of this longevity pill? You guys from Ruyuan Building, tell us!"

When others heard this, they all agreed.

"That's right, isn't it said that this longevity pill is only sold for one thousand and two taels of silver? You, Ruyuan Tower, can't be so unfair. You should let us participate in the bidding!"

"That's right, at least you should tell me what the qualifications are for bidding, right?"

"Can you please disclose the buyers of these numbered balls? Otherwise, who knows if there's something fishy going on? Is there one buyer for one ball? Or is there one buyer for five balls?"

……

Before the auction for the longevity elixir even started, people in the lobby started asking similar questions one after another, and the voices were noisy and loud.

Upstairs, Si He and Yue Fuli were quietly watching the situation downstairs, but they did not participate in the bidding.

However, Si He found this method of bidding for the longevity elixir quite novel.

She picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and watched the manager downstairs calm the situation down with just a few words.

The manager generously informed everyone of the qualifications for participating in the bidding.

First, you must be a top guest of Ruyuan Tower.

Second, if you want to be qualified to bid, you must pay a priority fee of 10,000 taels of silver.

In addition, further negotiations can only be carried out if these two conditions are met.

This "negotiation" actually means that you don't have the ability to participate in the bidding with so many famous families. Of course, this is definitely not stated explicitly, but many people understand the meaning.
