Chapter 195: AUCTION starts
In fact, the Online Auction had started two days prior, when finally Yang Xiu built the Online Auction page, as per Tianlong Yun's instructions.
After the control room was finished and he did the check he was supposed to do, Yang Xiu's main project was the Online Auction.
Beside the formula for the cure in there would be also sold a lot of herbs and antique objects that were like fillers to the fun.
This Online Auction had gathered all the interested people in front of their smartphones, laptops, or computers. Which big company wouldn't want the formula of the cure.
According to the tests and all the other experiments the cure never failed, it was 100% effective. Everyone was focused on that item, but that didn't mean they wouldn't shop something else.
One of the buyers in this night was also Gu Peng, this night was really nerve-wracking for him. Not because of the formula, but because tonight was a full moon night.
The letter that Tianlong Yun left on his pocket, or more precisely the words he read in there were still echoing on his mind.
Who could be the snake in his layer? How was such a thing even possible to happen? He had always cared for and loved his family.
As for his son in law, he was just a happy waste, living on his money. He had neither the ba**s nor the brains to think of something like this.
While Guo Peng was in this situation, the other big buyers were readying their offers to buy that miraculous formula.
The buyers were from all over the world, there were the Americans, Italians, Germans, Russians, and a lot of different countries, trying to buy the formula for their own interests.
According to the rules of the Auction, each one of the potential buyers would send a onetime offer for each of the articles on the list.
The highest bid would always prevail and take the article they had bid for. The Online System would only show the amounts offered only. There would be no signs of uncovering the buyer.
For the safe delivery of the object, each person participating in this Online Auction had sent someone they trusted in Hefei, the provincial capital of Anhui province.
Tianlong Yun was trying to sow some trouble for the overlords of the city. His next goal was the whole province of Anhui. Tianchang city was just the beginning.
But there was one thing that he didn't know how to deal with at the moment, the EITS. EITS had a really deep foundation, and if Tianlong Yun wasn't mistaken, there should be cultivators in their midst.
The EITS was real trouble because he couldn't really take them out, and alert their center. He had to slowly and noiselessly to deactivate them or take them onto his control.
Even in this night's Online Auction, EITS was all over the city trying to gather information on the organizers, or the potential buyers.
They were really a pain in the a**, but they had the right to be seeing their organization and foundation. It was clear that their leader was a wise one, and they had worked hard to achieve it.
Due to them and due to the newcomers, the city of Hefei seemed like a big cave holding all kinds of poisonous snakes.
It was only 3 minutes from the start of the Auction, and the noise and bolster seemed to grow bigger and louder.
Meanwhile in the underground facility, under 'the Mansion', Tianlong Xia together with her sisters and the higher-ups of the shadow clan were gathered in the control room.
More precisely inside the control room, was Tianlong Xia, Tianlong Yue, Lu Bing, Gao Ling, Qin Bao, Jiang Bo, Tianlong Hu Die, and Tianlong Xiangyun.
These were the people who had earned their place in here, due to their sharp and smart brain, and also their loyalty.
People might doubt Tianlong Xiangyun's loyalty but since she started seeing Tianlong Yun as her daddy, she was one of the most loyal people's to Tianlong Yun.
They were waiting for Tianlong Yun to emerge from his cave lab, but he was still there inside and hadn't communicated to any of them.
They weren't worried about his well-being because they could all feel their connection to him through their blood. From the moment they received Tianlong Yun's blood, this connection was established.
As their pillar of strength, and direction, they were used to have him lead them. But, there was no time anymore, the clock showed that it was time to start the Show.
Looking at the clock and seeing that Tianlong Yun didn't show up, Tianlong Xia took the role of the leader and said firmly,
Tianlong Xia:" Start with the Auction. Everyone carefully report everything to me."
Then turning to Jiang Bo she said,
Tianlong Xia:" Jiang Bo, you go outside and increase the security from the shadows. Report any nuisance, and problem to me. If my guess is right, we will have company today."
Jiang Bo was a bit surprised at her words because there were some strange things happening in the city for real. Thinking on it he said,
Jiang Bo:" Lady Xia, we have had some strange occurrences in these days actually. One of them being, a lot of tourist buses full of old people have entered our city, and some of our men seem either sick or have gone missing."
Tianlong Xia didn't seem surprised at his words, she had expected something like this, the only problem was finding who was the idiot, trying to create trouble for them.
Thinking only for a moment she said,
Tianlong Xia:" Place our men around the buses and their residences, also place some unknown people to our 'sick' men and tell them to keep watch.
Also just like I said, increase the security from the shadows everything has to seem quiet and peaceful. At the same time send some people to the slums, and let them be ready at any moment."
Taking his orders, Jiang Bo bowed towards her and acknowledged his instructions,
Jiang Bo:" Yes Lady Xia."
Seeing Jiang Bo leave the place to work on her instructions, Tianlong Xia gave Tianlong Hu Die a small piece of paper and said,
Tianlong Xia:" Die'er spread the shadows that remain here according to the instructions on the paper, tell them to be careful."
Tianlong Hu Die was a bit startled not knowing what was written in there, but she immediately acknowledged her assignment and said,
Tianlong Hu Die:" Yes Lady Xia."
Everyone inside the room was surprised by Tianlong Xia's orders, but they knew that there was something necessary at this moment and that she would never hurt Tianlong Yun.
At this time, the notifications of the different offers coming towards their direction were flooding in. It was like Yang Xiu was playing a symphony of sounds.
Muting all the sounds he said lifelessly,
Yang Xiu:" Lady Xia, the time for the first article has finished. These are the offers for it, please advise."
He was left with the instruction to hear Tianlong Xia's orders in case his master wasn't here, while she threw a quick look towards the offers and then said plainly,
Tianlong Xia:" Just follow the procedures set by your master for every article."
Yang Xiu acknowledged his instructions with his silence and started from his work. The first item was a special herb, it was a 'blood ginseng'.
Blood ginseng's weren't really rare, but the age this herb had, was. This blood ginseng was 2000 years old, kept in perfect conditions.
If Tianlong Yun was here, he would say that he knew more than ten good uses for this herb. It was a really good and needed herb for him.
People of different backgrounds had bidden in this article, whose value had reached 300.000$. it was just the first article and it was already selling so high.
The winner of this herb seemed some rich guy from Yao's family. But he was soon forgotten because it was the time for the second article.
The second article was an antique, it was a music box manufactured in the 18th century, it had a beautiful gold color, and it played music from Mozart.
According to its owner this music box was really special, because every time he opened and heard it for a bit, his emotional state would immediately start elevating.
Seeing this Tianlong Xia was a bit startled, not because this box had three dancers inside, but from the material, the dancers were crafted from.
In the Immortal World that material was called 'Heart Cleansing Stone', it was really rare. Its ability was to calm and pacify the mental and emotional state of the cultivator.
Many cultivators would kill to have something like this during their breakthroughs, so they could surpass their heart demons easier, and have a successful breakthrough.
The truth was that Tianlong Xia was tempted to take this for herself, but not wanting to spoil Tianlong Yun's plans, and trying to be low-key she decided to forget about it.
The weird thing was that the buyer of this antique seemed to once again be the first one, that rich man from the Yao's.
Tianlong Xia was really tempted to open his profile and see who he was, but now wasn't the time for that, because a special report came to her from Jiang Bo,
Jiang Bo:" Lady Xia, there are reports that Young Master Tang Tie, has been spotted in the slums. He is staying in a place called 'Flower's fragrance'. On the surface is a simple broth*l, but this place has also been marked by Master, as a 'special' place."
Hearing that report, Tianlong Xia was reminded of Tianlong Yun's words the night he brought the Huo family. 'Flower's Fragrance' was a place belonging to the EITS, it appears that even such an organization couldn't handle the lure of the cure.
While she was thinking about how to deal with the situation
