"There's a special auction for rare items at three at the Drunken Moon House today, I heard there are some rather rare items there. If the young master is interested, you can go take a look!" The shopkeeper handed the packaged items to her.
There were many people heading to the auction on the way. She had heard that there were quite a few rare items, which attracted a large number of people.
One needed to pay one thousand taels of gold to enter the Drunken Moon House, so not many people could enter.
She went to a pawn shop to get some money before being able to enter.
The private rooms on the second floor were mainly reserved, so the first floor were filled with people like her.
She went to find her seat and ordered a pot of Bi Luo Chun tea as she waited for the auction to begin.
The things being sold at first were rather normal. Although they were considered rare items, it wasn't hard for the Luo Family to get them.
It wasn't until the appearance of the white jade beaded bracelet did the people of the second floor start bidding.
But they were sold for a relatively normal price. The first ten items made Luo Qing Chen a bit interested.
It wasn't because they were rare items, rather they were always obtained by the same person.
"Next we have something called the 'Transcending Ethereal Spiritual Flower', it's the sister of the 'Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus'. It has the effect of beautification and helping with your figure."
The auctioneer spoke very tactfully, but Luo Qing Chen knew that this was what she wanted.
There were many people bidding, most of them being women. After the bid of one hundred taels of gold, there were less people who made bids.
"One hundred and fifty going once."
"Two hundred." Luo Qing Chen took a sip of her tea with a casual look on her face.
Everyone's eyes fell onto her and they couldn't help letting out a sigh.
"So it was this fatty!"
"The one who bid one hundred and fifty seemed to be young miss Du....."
"The second beauty of the capital, I've heard that young miss Du knows many princes and nobles!"
"This fatty has a bit of skills, daring to challenge young miss Du."
......
Luo Qing Chen was very dissatisfied with these whispers. Why was it that by just being a little fat, the first impression was to call her fatty!
There wasn't any courtesy at all!
The voice of the girl sitting behind the beaded curtains on the second floor said again, "Two hundred and fifty."
"Three hundred." Luo Qing Chen said instantly, as a trace of coldness appeared in her eyes.
There was another supporting female lead on the status panel and the previous host didn't have as deep of an impression of her.
But this Du Wan Er wasn't a good person. When she was ranked as the number one beauty, this girl had tried to frame her big sister.
Fortunately there was evidence, so this matter was dropped.
Her wanting this 'Transcending Ethereal Spiritual Flower' was to surpass Luo Jin Yan.
"Four hundred." The female voice was a bit anxious. The crowd held their breath, wanting to see how this gunpowder like auction would end.
Four hundred definitely wasn't a small number. Although the Du Family were a big family, Du Wan Er was definitely hesitant in taking out four hundred to buy this 'Transcending Ethereal Spiritual Flower'!
"Five hundred." Her voice was very calm and her expression didn't change at all.
The surrounding whispers became louder. Although they were still calling her fatty, but it was considered relevant.
"As expected, this fatty doesn't hesitate to lose weight!"
"That's right! Young miss Du might really lose this time!"
"Young miss Du has only gained a bit of weight recently, compared to this fatty, it should be this fatty who needs it more!"
