Chapter 147
Shortly after, they finally arrived at the exhibition center.
The exhibition center was a building with a circular dome. The outer circle was filled with shops sellingall sorts of different goods from flowers to birds and the auction house was located at the center.
The exhibition center was built last year and it looked absolutely magnificent.
Charlie followed Jasmine into the glass elevator as they headed to the sixth floor.
As soon as the elevator door opened, an artistic exhibition hall with various antique calligraphy andpaintings hung on the walls suddenly appeared in front of them. This was the auction house.
The auction table was placed right in front atop a red carpet. There were numerous sofas below thestage and the tables were filled with wines and fresh fruits for the enjoyment of the guests.
As compared to the last auction, it seemed as though Treasure Pavilion had put in a lot of effort into theauction this time. It had probably cost them more than one million dollars to lease and prepare all thedecorations for the auction.
Jasmine’s seat was in the middle of the front row and as they were about to move forward, theysuddenly heard a huge commotion behind them.novelbin
Charlie turned around and at this time, he was forced to step aside because there were several peoplewho were trying to squeeze into the auction hall at this time.
Charlie frowned as he watched the group of people rushing into the auction hall. There were also a fewbodyguards leading the way at this time.
“Oh, is Mr. Yaleman already here?” Jasmine exclaimed as she stared at the crowd of people.
In fact, the crowd of people were all distinguished guests who were attending the auction. However, atthis time, they were all surrounding a middle-aged man who was wearing a blue suit and had a coldand arrogant look on his face.
Charlie looked at the man before he said, “So, this is the reputable Mr. Yaleman. He has a pretty goodposture…”
The crowd of people continued leading Jack forward and at this time, he suddenly wrote a few wordson a yellow piece of paper before he handed the talisman over to the man standing next to him. Afterthat, he said in an indifferent manner, “It seems as though we have both been destined to meet today. Iam giving you this peace talisman for free today. It will keep you safe, and you and your family will beprosperous in time to come.”
“Thank you, Mr. Yaleman.”
The man was very surprised and flattered as he took the peace talisman in his hand. After that, hebegan carrying the talisman around as though it was a piece of treasure as he kept telling the peoplearound him, “Mr. Yaleman’s peace talisman is really amazing. I’ve been seeking his services for thepast few years and thanks to his talisman, my business has grown more and more successful!”
The crowd of people could only look on enviously. At this time, some of the people also cheekilybegged Jack to give them a talisman but he simply ignored them.
Jack’s assistant snorted as he yelled at the crowd, “Do you really think that just anyone can get Mr.Yaleman’s talisman just because they want it? Don’t you know that people are paying at least twohundred thousand dollars for each peace talisman that they get from Mystery Court?”
Everyone was silent for a moment before someone suddenly shouted.
“It’s really rare for Mr. Yaleman to specifically make a trip to Aurous Hill! I will be more than willing topay two hundred thousand dollars for a peace talisman. Please give me one, Mr. Yaleman.”
“Me too! I want to buy one too. I want a peace talisman from Mr. Yaleman too.”
“It is very difficult to get a peace talisman from Mr. Yaleman! Two hundred thousand dollars is nothing. Iwant five pieces of the peace talisman.”
The crowd of people were very excited and many of them transferred money over to Jack immediatelyjust to get their hands on one of his peace talisman.
“Please stand in line.”
Jack’s assistant instructed as he registered them one by one. It was a very chaotic scene.
At this time, Charlie could not help but exclaim, “What sort of peace talisman is that? It’s so expensive.It really is a good way to make money.”
He did not speak very loudly but at this time, Jack suddenly raised his head as he stared at him with hisbrows knitted together.
Jack pushed the crowd of people aside as he walked towards Charlie. “My friend, did I hear you havingan opinion about my peace talisman?”
Charlie simply replied in a casual manner, “I simply do not think that any peace talisman in this worldshould be worth so much money.”
At this time, someone in the crowd yelled out immediately, “Who do you think you are? What do youknow anyway? Mr. Yaleman is already selling his peace talisman at a low price of only two hundredthousand dollars!”
“Yes, it is only two hundred thousand dollars! That is why everyone is lining up to buy one.”
“You can get the exact same peace talisman for just two dollars at the temple.”
At this time, Jack snorted as he glared at Charlie, “You can eat rice anytime you want, but youshouldn’t be spouting nonsense here. The reason why people speak without thinking is because theyare pretending to understand something that is above their understanding.”
After he was done speaking, Jack curled his lips in disdain as he walked into the auction hall.
Charlie had an indifferent expression on his face because Jack was not a threat to him at all.
