Chapter 225: Evildoer Mo Yifan
Qin Yichen walked away without waiting for Mo Yifan to speak.
However, Mo Yifan's expression also remained unchanged. As though he had known that Qin Yichen would do that all along.
The both of them had exploited each other cleanly. One wanted a membership card and the other person wanted to make more money for his woman.
Since Mo Yifan had more than enough, Qin Yichen didn't mind taking some from him and giving his Rong Yue.
"The last VIP membership card would now be yours for a sum of one million dollars."
The formal auction hadn't started and there was no gravel on the stage, but Su Tong still followed the normal process.
Under the watching eyes of the crowd, the card was given to Mo Yifan.
A glint of light passed through his eyes as he paid and held the small black card.
"This partnership was indeed hard to buy." Mo Yifan murmured before keeping the card in his pocket.
Right after he sat down, Su Tong brought the card ownership to a close.
"Now that we have done that, we would get to the next event of the day."
"Like we promised, we have ten Emperor Jades available for sale today."
"Three of these Emperor Jade would be sold to the highest bidder among the guests."
"As for the other seven, they would be said to our Glacial customers."
As soon as she said that, the room broke into an uproar, after all, she had not informed them about this arrangement earlier.
Also, she didn't cross the lines as they were being sold three Emperor Jades."
Out of ten, three didn't seem like a lot. After all, on a normal day where could they possibly see three Emperor Jades?
But just thinking that they could have a higher chance of having an Emperor Jade if they had bought the membership card was enough to make them regret it.
Not minding the emotions of the other people, Su Tong started the auction.
The moment the first three jades were brought on the stage, Su Tong pulled the cloth covering them away, allowing the splendour of the jade to be revealed.
"For the sake of authenticity, we have invited some of the country's best appraisers. Before payment making payments, you can verify the authenticity of the Jade."
With that said, most of them felt more confident about bidding for the Jades.
"The three of them have a starting price of $2,000,000."
Imperial jadeite was hard to see and a lot of people weren't bothered about this pricing because each of the stones that was placed on the table would definitely weigh more than a kilogram.
It could even be said as a good deal. However, the trap in it was the auction. With different people of varying power levels here, it was easy for the price to go beyond the normal market price.
"$2,100,000" someone started, taking things slow.
"$2,500,000"
"$3,000,000"
"4,000,000"
After this price was called out, a lot of people stopped calling out prices as they felt that there were still two more to be bought.
Like this, the first stone was sold out.
Rong Xia had a wide smile on her face as she took a sip of her tea.
"This stone business is a smart idea. After now, don't hold auctions again as it would make greedy people start to have other thoughts."
"Also, since you can monopolise the market now, you should stretch out to other types of stone. Things are fast changing and with how things are going, you need to add other rare stones."
Rong Xia was clearly a very intelligent person and Rong Yue couldn't help but feel her heartache at their circumstances.
In her last life, she never even got the chance to see her mother in this light.
"I already got some mines in Xu Continent. The workers would start bringing batches in very soon." She didn't want things to be too flamboyant from the beginning.
Back in the hall, the people that had backed down when the first stone was being sold gnashed their teeth in anger.
The second stone had sold for $6,000,000 while the third stone was sold for $9,000,000.

It could be said that the first person had gotten the biggest advantage.
"Thank you dear guests for participating in our opening ceremony. As for our Glacial Members, we would now begin the auction for the Imperial jadeite."
As soon as Su Tong said that, some men brought cart after cart to the stage and removed the cloth that was covering them.
Even if they had been told beforehand, many people couldn't help but take a deep breath at the arrangement.
At the same time, none of the men left the stage as they stood behind each stone like some type of protector.
Seeing that, even if someone wanted to have evil thoughts, they couldn't help but abandon them immediately.
"The starting price for the stones is "$1,5000,000."
Even though the stones looked bigger and even seemed like they were shining brighter than the first one, the starting price was lower.
It was clearly to let everyone know that their method of treating their members was extremely difficult.
At the same time that the auction started, there was a knock on the door that Rong Yue and Rong Xia were staying in.
Rong Xia used a mask to cover her face while Rong Yue stood up to open the door.
"Miss Rong Yue, it is really quite difficult to find you." Mo Yifan said in a lazy drawl as he leaned against the door frame.
"And why are you looking for me?" Around Mo Yifan, Rong Yue couldn't help but raise her guard every time, after all, he had an aura of an evildoer and it was hard to predict what his thoughts were.
So every time they met, she always welcomed him with hostility.
Seeing her reaction, Mo Yifan's eyes dulled a little.
"You can't be too partial towards President Qin okay? His hands are soaked in as much blood as mine," As he stepped back, he adjusted his coat as though he was showing off his peerless looks to her.
Rong Yue rolled her eyes at his pretentious behaviour.
"I didn't ask for a saint. But it's better to deal with someone that at least doesn't change skin too much, right?"
Although he performed as much evil as possible, Mo Yifan walked around in white clothes that greatly contradicted his true nature.
A person like that really made Rong Yue skeptical.
"As your highest valued VIP member, I don't think that you giving me an audience would be too much of a big deal for you right?"
