Chapter 492 – “Auctioning Juvenile Potions”
Ainsley was pretty interested in the baby dragon egg, but the appraiser shook his head.
"The egg is a defect. There won't be any baby dragon coming out of it…it is a dead egg that the dragons throw away because it has no value anymore."
"Ah, I see…hwummm, so we choose other items, huh…" Ainsley recalled all the items that the guest offered in exchange for the soul-healing potion.
Neutraliser energy crystal that could neutralise everyone's ability users in 10 meters range, or beast repellent that could even chase away a sacred beast…
The first item could only be used once. The second item was also the same. Both were one-time-use items!
But Ainsley liked both items. After carefully thinking about it, in the end, she accepted the neutraliser energy crystal.
The first bottle was sold, and the second bottle was auctioned. Surprisingly, no one offered an excellent item for Ainsley aside from the super beast repellent.
Thus, Ainsley easily picked the super beast repellent for the second bottle purchase.
The third bottle was the last, so everyone fought madly, and Ainsley managed to get a magic jar that could produce healing water.
The water could heal external wounds, any other wounds such as bone injuries and can also help reduce one's anxiety. It's also good for those who are too exhausted to do anything.
The magic jar was only as big as an adult's palm, but since it could be used many times as long as they fed it energy crystals, Ainsley accepted the magic jar.
After the fourth potion type were all auctioned, what's left was only the fifth and sixth potion types, the last two types and also the one that many people eyed.
"Next, the Juvenile Potion! We only have three bottles. The first bottle's base price will be $7 million. You can start bidding…now!"
As soon as Marietta said that, Bernadette, the Godlif Beast Tamer Guild, instantly made an astonishing bid.
"Phoenix cub, only a month old, fire element. Worth $15 million!"
Bern raised the price by more than twice the original price! And what he offered was also something incredible…
A phoenix cub!
Phoenix was one of the beasts with a legendary bloodline. But most phoenixes would be adults, not cubs.
It's hard to get Phoenix cubs anywhere…but now, the old man wanted to trade a Phoenix cub with a bottle of juvenile Potion.
It's clear that the old man didn't want to feel old anymore and wanted to experience his might when he's younger once more!
Bern's offer was shocking, but it didn't mean the other big shots on the second floor backed off. Benjamin, the monster tamer guild master, raised this board and shouted.
"Mother Godzilla that has 10 Godzilla cubs. Her level is on par with a sacred beast. Worth $20 million!"
Benjamin raised the price by 10 million dollars…and what's with the Godzilla? It was Ainsley's first time knowing there's a monster called the Godzilla…
She already thought of cultivating her mother raptor into something as strong as the sacred beast, but if she got this Godzilla…she could leave the Godzilla to protect her mansion while she went outside with Cellino.
Not bad!
The newborn Phoenix was also good…she didn't have a flying-type mount yet. But to make the Phoenix grow to a size where she could ride on it…maybe it needed several years.
Thus, Ainsley leaned more toward the Godzilla, but then, someone from the Billios Family's VVIP room pressed the bell and spoke through the microphone.
"The Billios Family will offer a lifetime business contract and license to sell items from the elven. We will provide the items, and the Sloan Family can buy the items at base price."
The one talking was none other than Jacqueline. With a smile on her face, she continued.
"The business contract and license is worth $30 million."
Of course, it would be worth that much because the business contract lasts for a lifetime. No, the worth should be way more than just $30 million.
If the Sloan Family could also sell products from the elves and got access to trade with them or became their merchants, their business sector would be secured for life.
Ainsley was instantly in a huge dilemma!
What to do? Which one to pick? Well, even if I choose only one of them now, the losers can bid for the second and third potion…so maybe I can get all the items offered…
Ainsley rubbed her chin, deep in thoughts. At the same time, Jake was sweating bullets as he lifted his head to look at the room on the second floor.
The young man instantly had the urge to curse.
Mom, you're here too?! And why would you offer such an important business contract for only a bottle of Juvenile Potion?! That's not worth it!
Jake couldn't understand the value of being young and fit because he's still young and healthy.
However, the oldies like Jacqueline, Bern, Benjamin…they knew it sucks to be old, and they wanted to feel young once more.
What's wrong with that?
So far, no items could buy one's youth…but there was a potion that could give them their lost youth…why wouldn't they give their best to get it?
A lifetime business contract with the Sloan Family might sound bad for the Billios Family that got their position because the elves are favoured.
However, thinking again, the Sloan Family would need the Billios Family this way, and both families would interact with each other even more often than before.
If this happened, it would be easier for Jake to coax Ainsley to be his adopted daughter, right?
That's what Jacqueline was aiming for!
