The Legacy System

560 Chapter 560

How could the other two guys not worry about the instructions they had just received but knowing that these were the intentions of Secretary Zhang they got convinced.

After all, all the staff at the Auction House knew more of the face and power of Secretary Zhang on the premises, than that of the Director.

The Director had the backing and luck to smoke out business but he sucked in management.

It had been for quite some time now that the Auction House as a whole didn't care about his words as much as they cared for the words of Secretary Zhang.

The moment that they heard these were Secretary Zhang's intentions, they immediately got convinced and were certain that even if they were caught, they would still have him guard their back.

With those thoughts in mind, they immediately accepted the task delegated to them, and they ran to deal with their own things.

…

In the VIP room, Eric was being fed some tasty fruits at the hands of the two sisters, who despite not going into a full conflict were still in a complex war with each other.

Cui Xie could be said to be the only person that was actually following the auction as it happened and bid for the articles that Eric told him.

By now everyone had gotten curious about the guy seating in the VIP room because every article that he bid for would end up in his hands, even if he had to pay 5 times the price.

Cui Xie was fighting to buy every antique and historical article that carried some meaning under the guidance of Eric, who was close to laughing out loud due to the return he was getting.

The current him had too much liquid cash lying around, that he wasn't finding a use for and this was the perfect chance for him to spend all of that, and even get his hands on some precious SP points.

Each of the articles that they had bid for would be absorbed by the Legacy System and he would get quite a bit of SP points in return.

The next thing that he was buying was rare herbs, and resources that weren't normally brought out to other people's eyes.

Like hundreds-year-old ginsengs, knotweed, or even some other rare ores that the Legacy System was appraising for him.

In order to invite him to spend as much as he could on the antiques, and important pieces of historical and Soul value, the Legacy System was bending the benefits by giving him an appraisal ability, temporarily.

While all these things were quite beneficial to him, there hadn't been yet something that would truly attract his attention and curiosity.

It wasn't like he was expecting anything at this point in time either, as he had already seen the pamphlet recording everything in advance.

At this point in time, the door to the VIP room opened once again, as the beautiful waitress entered inside with a tray containing the latest buy of Cui Xie, and his Card.

He had just purchased another antique, that was placed close to all the rest until now. At first, this beauty had been a bit displeased with serving someone like Cui Xie, and the mysterious guy, but now that feeling was gone.

After all, she was paid a fixed wage, alongside a small percentage of 0.01% of the client's purchase as a tip.

At first look, Cui Xie and the mysterious guy didn't seem able to buy much, but now, she was completely proven wrong, as just the percentage she got out of this tonight was higher than her fixed wage.

In a way, she was now extremely grateful to Cui Xie, and Eric, so she had become warmer, and willing to serve them better.

At this point, she wouldn't refuse even if Cui Xie actually asked her to have some fun later. In fact, if she could trap him later, then her life would be set for good.

With those thoughts in mind, she just saw that the plate of fruits was close to the finish, so she immediately offered cheerfully,

"Masters, allow me to refill the table and your glasses!"

The wine that was served in this room, was actually a Château Lafleur of 1950, one of the best wines in existence, whose price ranged from 50.000 dollars to 100.000.

Truly something that only people who were able to spend hundreds of millions in the Auction could actually taste.

In fact, the beautiful waitress had many times tried to taste this wine through the drops that the guests might leave at the bottom of their glass.

Well, now it didn't matter much as she was fully concentrated on the revenue and winning of the night, so she immediately called for more service, as a tray containing a new bottle and refill was brought to the room.

The same way that she had behaved all this time, the waitress opened the bottle of wine, and immediately refilled the glasses.

'Clangggg~!'

But this time, before she could fill the glass properly, Eric turned to look at her with a terrifying gaze, that made her shiver and drop the glass to the floor!

The sudden noise captured the attention of the rest of the people in the room, that were looking at Eric with weird and complicated expressions.

Eric wasn't someone who would bully others without a reason, but if he felt even the slightest danger he would weed out the roots perfectly.

"Who brought these glasses to this room!? Who is responsible for the preparation of this tray!?"

"Huh!? What do you mean sir, these were brought here by the staff of this place. What is wrong with them!?"

The waitress clearly didn't understand what Eric was going on for, but she could understand that there was something wrong with this.

The ones that were the most aware though were most probably, Cui Xie and the two ladies serving him, as they started to understand why Eric acted like that.

"Master this…"

"She seems to not be involved in this, so just tell her to go and bring Secretary Zhang here! I want to have a nice conversation with him through a glass of wine, I hope he doesn't refuse your request!"

Eric could tell that by the way this waitress reacted, and her heartbeat, that she wasn't involved in the mess, and she was just going to be the victim who became responsible for this.

For that reason, he didn't have much anger or discontent towards her. In fact, he felt a bit of pity as she would be blamed later without an option of retaliation.

She was just a little fly caught in the big net, while he could follow the tracks, and bring down all the flies, he decided to go after the big bad spider controlling the net.

Things would be much easier and more believable like that.

"This…"

The beautiful waitress still didn't understand what was going on, but she felt that it was a bit too far for her to call Secretary Zhang to this room when he already had his hands full.

"Do as he says! Tell Secretary Zhang to be here in 5 minutes, if he doesn't want a scandal that would completely obliterate the Auction House!"

"Young Master it's better to think things through, I am sure that Secretary Zhang is too busy right now, so if you please…"

"I don't need you to teach me how to act, not go and relay my words to him immediately!"

Since neither Cui Xie, nor Eric had shown any haughty attitude, and berated the beautiful waitress, or tried to enter her panties, she had thought that they weren't much intimidating.

In fact, she felt like these guys were a bit too detached, cold, and timid. It was only now that she heard the loud, roar-like voice of Cui Xie, that she finally understood that he wasn't a kitten but a lion.

One look from Eric was enough to make her shiver, she didn't dare think what would happen if Eric did more to her.

Unable to bear the pressure and the attitude of them both, she immediately scurried backstage and found Secretary Zhang checking all the transactions until now.

The moment she reached there, she immediately spoke in a hurried voice,

"Secretary Zhang the Master of the VIP room turned crazy all of a sudden and roared at me to bring you there!

They said that if you don't go there in under 5 minutes, they will make a scandal that will obliterate our Auction House!"

"What!?"

"How dare those people to say that!?"

"Who do they think they are!?"

A lot of staff workers got extremely agitated hearing those words, and Secretary Zhang's face went ugly.

A single thought crossed his mind at this point, that stupid cousin of his had actually done something stupid instead of seeking for an apology.

He couldn't help but think that he had truly lost too much due to a single fool tonight, as he immediately regained control over his emotions and said,

"Lead the way!"

The waitress was a bit surprised to hear those words and was stunned for a moment, but then she managed to regain control of herself quickly, as she said,

"Yes, yes sir, right away!"

Like that, they slowly walked through the hallways, and before they reached the VIP room, they heard the sounds of an expected or unexpected guy screaming at the two Masters of the room,

"You two will never get out of here alive if you kill me today! Do you think our Auction House is so easy to bully!?"
