Since he was the manager of a large auction house like this, he naturally had the eyes to recognize if something was real or not.
Just a single glance was enough for him to tell that all of these spirit stones were real and they were filled with spiritual energy.
These were spirit stones that had clearly just been mined not that long ago.
A young master that was able to throw out something like this was definitely not a simple person since that meant that he came from a family that owned a spirit stone mine.
Any family that owned a spirit stone mine would be filled with experts that could protect that spirit stone mine.
Experts that would be much stronger than anything found in an eighth grade sect.
So the manager knew exactly who to flatter.
With a wave of his hand, the staff member immediately ran forward with a few others to go and guard the pile of spirit stones. He could see that there were people that had greedy looks in their eyes when they saw this pile of spirit stones, but this was their Golden Boar Auction House's territory.
How could they let others do what they wanted here?
So they quickly picked up this pile of spirit stones and brought them inside.
Only after the spirit stones were brought in did the manager finally turn back to us and say with a smile, "This young master, may I know how to address you?"
"Lin Fan." I said in a simple and calm manner befitting a prodigal, though I was one since I was spending money like this.
The manager quickly bowed his head and said, "Young Master Lin, please allow me to guide you to your seat. We have a special seat prepared for our VIP guests."
I just gave a simple nod in response before reaching my hand out to Liu Ao Xue.
She had a surprised look on her face, as if she didn't expect any of this.
But she gave a cough to calm down before taking my hand and walking with me as we followed the manager.
However, before we could go into the auction house, there was someone that shouted out to stop us.
"WAIT A MINUTE!"
When everyone turned to look at the person who shouted, they found that it was Sect Master Kuang who had suddenly shouted out.
After shouting out to get everyone's attention, Sect Master Kuang came forward and said, "Manager Fu, do you really think that someone like this would be able to take out this many spirit stones? Those are clearly fakes!"
The manager who was called Manager Fu just said with a calm look on his face, "Regardless of if they are fakes or not, that is not something for you to decide. This is the business of our Golden Boar Auction House, so please do not interfere with our business."
Without waiting for a response from Sect Master Kuang, he turned back to me and said with a smile, "Young Master Lin, please follow me. I'll bring you to your seats now."
This made it very clear who he was siding with.
But Sect Master Kuang didn't drop this matter here.
Without hesitation, he pulled out his blade and said, "I refuse to accept this!"
He came forward as if he was about to slash his blade at us.
When I saw this, I immediately moved forward to stand in front of Liu Ao Xue even though I knew that she was stronger than me.
What I didn't see was the blush that appeared on her face when she saw me do this.
But there was no need for me to do this in the first place as Manager Fu suddenly came forward.
With a single finger, he stopped the blade.
Holding the blade in the air, Manager Fu pushed up his glasses and said, "Sect Master Kuang, are you really doing this here? Are you looking down on our Golden Boar Auction House?"
Sect Master Kuang had a shocked look on his face when he saw this.
He didn't hold back at all, so the fact that Manager Fu was able to block his attack with just a single finger was a complete shock to him.
After a moment of silence, Sect Master Kuang said, "Manager Fu, I'm trying to help you."
Manager Fu gave a snort before saying, "This is the matter of our Golden Boar Auction House, we do not need your help."
With a snap of his fingers, there were several dark cloaked figures that appeared around Sect Master Kuang. All of them had swords in their hands that they were pointing at him to his shock.
Manager Fu just ignored him and said, "Escort him and the rest of his group out of here. They are banned from our Golden Boar Auction House from now on."
Sect Master Kuang was dragged away with a shocked look on his face, but there was nothing that he could say.
After all, he hadn't even been able to see the appearance of these people.
So there was no way that he would be able to resist as they dragged him away.
After the disturbance had been taken away, Manager Fu smiled at me once more and led us inside.
The room that he brought us to was definitely a magnificent one and it was a private room that overlooked the hall.
After showing us to this room, he gestured to the servants on the side and said, "If there is anything that Young Master Lin requires, please inform these servants."
All of the servants bowed their heads at this and said in unison, "We look forward to serving Young Master Lin."
I gave a satisfied nod before giving a wave of the hand to dismiss him.
Manager Fu wasn't offended by this at all as he gave a bow and left the room.
This was the power of money.
As long as you had enough money, you could make anyone treat you well.
