In a large hall on the third floor, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes stood excitedly on the stage, talking about something. In front of him was a display cabinet, inside which lay a sleek and translucent piece of jade.
"This is the rare glass species double fish pearl pendant, also personally consecrated by Meihua City's Master Liao. It is indeed as scarce as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, said to repel all evil!"
"Currently, gentleman number 229 has bid 270,000. Does anyone else wish to raise the bid? Such an opportunity, once missed, may never come again!"
There was a buzz of discussion among the guests below the stage. However, it seemed the price had already reached everyone's mental limit, and no one else stepped forward to compete.
After waiting a moment, the man on stage hammered down with a small mallet and announced loudly:
"Double fish pearl pendant, 270,000 for the first time!"
"Double fish pearl pendant, 270,000 for the second time!"
