Rebirth of the Urban Immortal Cultivator

CHAPTER 63

Although they shared a common last name, the Zheng family of Hong Kong was not the same as that of the Chu Zhou City.

During the heydays of the Zheng Family of Hong Kong, they were on the top ten of the Forbes list. Even now, they were around twentieth to thirtieth. Not even the richest person in Zhong Zhou Province could compare with the might of the Zheng Family.

During the eighties and the nineties, such prominent families were able to talk directly to the Federal Political Bureau. As such, if the head of the family came to visit Zhong Zhou Province, the provincial government would greet him with someone in the government with equal political clout.

Although Wu Shanhe had some influence in the Zhong Zhou Province, he was no match against heavyweight such as the Zheng Family.

Master Wu looked at Chen Fan for help. Seeing Chen Fan was indifferent to his embarrassment, Master Wu stepped back and out of the women's way.

The half Asian, half white girl snorted at Master Wu and walked into the courtyard.

None of the bosses and tycoons from Zhong Zhou city dared to stand up for Master Wu. They knew that even their combined might could not reach a fraction of the Zheng Family's influence.

"The Zheng Family from Hong Kong?" Chen Fan mulled on the name for a while.

The old man of the family was a household name among the Chinese community in China and abroad. He was in his eighties; the same age as Superman Li. Chen Fan scrapped the memory of his past life and remembered that he had seen on the news that the old man passed away this year.

"No wonder they are buying up all the precious herbs." Chen Fan shook his head.

In his eighties, the Old Man Zhen had reached the end of his life, as he suffered multiple organ failures. There was no cure for him. Even these rare herbal medicine could only temporarily boost his vitality but would not be able to halt the unrelenting beckoning of death.

As a cultivator, Chen Fann knew that the best medicine for prolonging life was the Essence Enhancing Pill. Too bad that Chen Fan couldn't gather enough material to make more, otherwise, he could sell them to the Zheng Family for a hefty price.

"Master Chen, let's go in." Wu Shanhe spoke under his breath.

"Very well." Chen Fan nodded.

This was an underground auction and as such, committing to a transaction here was risky business. Neither the host nor the seller offered a guarantee that the items were authentic.

The first item of the auction was a one-hundred-and-thirty years old Mountain Ginseng.

It weighed 127 grams and started at three million. The half-white girl eventually bought the ginseng with a whopping seven million.

"Deep pockets!" A lot of people exclaimed.

Ever since the start of the auction, the half-blood girl had bought off nearly all the items with skyrocket offers. In the end, most people scarcely dared to bid against her. Most of the bidders were here to purchase their business inventory; therefore, it was not absolutely necessary for them to compete against the girl.

Chen Fan was only able to get a ninety-year-old Black Hair Herb. Most of the other herbs were snatched up by the half white girl.

"The next one requires some judgment; you have been warned: buyers beware."

The host brought out a platter; he removed the black cloth that covered it and revealed a gnarly bough. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
