Female Novel
Chapter 565 The Ticket Is Fake
“Ming Zhu?” Yang Wei asked in an indifferent tone.
“Ming Zhu is the eldest daughter of the Ming Family. Don’t be deceived by her pretty face, Sir. She’s
actually a sinister person. I heard that the health of the Ming Family’s old master is deteriorating each
day. He even secretly instructed people to make the Longevity Pill. This isn’t a secret anymore in Sea
City though. No wonder the Ming Family is holding this Sea Heaven Grand Banquet and they’ve even
invited the organizers of the precious medicinal material auction a few days ahead. It seems that they
are aiming for these medicinal materials!”
“Looks like you and the Ming Family are not on friendly terms. Is the Ming Family the strongest family in
Sea City?” Chen Hao looked at Yang Wei and smiled bitterly as he asked.
Yang Wei nodded awkwardly. “A few hundred years ago, the Yang Family was the largest family in Sea
City. But now, we are the second largest in Sea City. The entire economic lifeblood of Sea City is
controlled by the Ming Family. I’m running a medicinal business, and it seems like the Ming Family is
aiming at me deliberately. Mr. Chen, I’m truly sorry! I will ask my people to get two invitations as soon
as possible!”
Chen Hao did not say anything more.
On the other hand, Ming Zhu marched toward them with a cold face.
But she only glanced icily at Chen Hao and Yang Wei without saying a word. After that, she led her
people into the auction with the usher of the security guard. Beside Ming Zhu, there was a middle-aged
man who had an extraordinary temperament.
“Miss, Yang Wei seems to be enraged when I didn’t allow him to enter!” the security guard reported
reverently.
“You did well. I want him to know that although the Ming Family is a foreign family, we have established
our superiority in Sea City. They, as the local forces, should take notice of their position. The territory of
the Ming Family is not a place they can enter whenever they wish. Besides, we’ve instructed Yang Wei
to prepare the medicinal materials that are needed by my grandfather within a year, but he took it
lightly. We’ve given him enough respect by not teaching him a lesson!” Ming Zhu replied indifferently.
“Anyway, have you completed the things I instructed you to do?” Ming Zhu suddenly asked in a low
voice.
“Don’t worry, Miss. It’s perfectly done. I guarantee that we won’t miss the magical herbs we are aiming
for!” the security guard assured her in a cold voice.
The few of them entered.
A few moments later, Yang Wei had obtained the invitations and entered with Chen Hao.
There was a variety of ancient medicinal materials in the medicinal material auction.
Among these precious ancient medicinal materials, there were a few which Chen Hao needed.
“50 million!” When one of the medicinal materials came on stage, Chen Hao did not act courteously
and shouted his bid.
This caused the atmosphere of the auction to change slightly, and everyone turned back to look at
Chen Hao who was on his seat.
“Yali, look! It’s your junior!” the few girls beside Li Yali gasped in astonishment.
“Is he that rich? He said 50 million! He was probably shouting for fun.”
“Exactly. How did he manage to sneak in? Is this the first time he is attending an auction? Doesn’t he
know that once he places the bid, he can’t undo it. If no one raises the price, he will be done for!”
The few of them felt speechless.
After all, the highest bid was only around 10 million now.
Based on their experience, this medicinal material would be bought off at only 20 million. It was out of
their expectation that it would rise to a price of 50 million.
The fatty who shouted 20 million sat down embarrassingly and glanced at the direction of Ming Zhu,
who was sitting in the VIP seat.
Ming Zhu, who was in the VIP seat, narrowed her beautiful eyes and gave a meaningful glance at the
security guard at her side.
“Good evening, Sir. We’re truly sorry, but we need to check your invitations!” the security guard spoke
in a cold voice.
This security guard was the one they had met at the entrance earlier.
“Why do you want to check ours when there are so many people here? Leave some leeway for
everything!”
Yang Wei took a deep breath as he quivered in anger.
“Because you called out an extremely high price. I’m worried that you might be causing trouble. Sir,
please cooperate with us!” the security guard replied.
“Let him check it!” Chen Hao frowned.
Upon his instruction, Yang Wei took out the invitations.
The security guards took the invitations and checked carefully.
However, Chen Hao was now a bright spark, so he was clear what this security guard and Ming Zhu
planned to do.
The security guard was wearing an earphone, but there was nothing Chen Hao could not hear if he
wanted to.
From the earphone, he heard Ming Zhu’s instruction. “Chase them away. Other than that, look into that
young man’s background. If he is really wealthy, you might as well arrange someone to extort money
from him!”
Chen Hao could not help but smile bitterly.
Yang Wei said that the Ming Family actually turned wealthy by theft and robbery. Their ancestors were
actually pirates.
When Chen Hao heard Ming Zhu’s way of doing things, he was slightly amused.
“I’m sorry, Sir. But your invitations are fake. Please leave now!” the security guard said coldly.
“Fake? How dare you accuse us? You must give me an explanation today!” Yang Wei stood up and
denounced angrily.
“We can prove that it’s fake!”
At this moment, Li Yali and her group of friends stood up.
The middle-aged man who was standing next to Li Yali said, “We know this young man. His name is
Chen Hao and he’s from Jin Ling. Most importantly, he is an underprivileged student!”
“Yes! They were blocked at the entrance earlier. When I went to the restroom just now, I saw them
calling someone. They must have bought fake tickets!” the few girls concurred.
Those with discerning eyes knew that this security guard belonged to the Ming Family. If they stood up
and cooperated with the Ming Family now, they might leave a deep impression on the Ming Family and
gain something in return.
Besides, this was an opportunity for them to make an impression on the wealthy businessmen in the
scene as well.
“Underprivileged student? Is it possible that he really sneaked in?”
Everyone participated in the heated discussion.
Li Yali looked at Chen Hao and said, “Chen Hao, you were once an honest guy. I can’t believe that
you’ve become this kind of person. If you sincerely want to expand your horizons, you should work
hard to earn money and not waste time on these pointless matters. If you have the energy, you should
work part-time. You can’t just enter this level of society as you wish!” Li Yali shook her head.
Meanwhile, Yang Wei was looking around, hoping to find someone who knew him. To his
astonishment, there was not a single local other than the Ming Family in the entire auction.novelbin
“It doesn’t matter whether the ticket is real or fake. The important thing is to have enough money to buy
the medicinal materials here, am I right?” Chen Hao shook his head with a bitter smile.
“I believe the organizers won’t be willing to miss any opportunity to earn money.” Chen Hao looked at
the organizer.
“If you have sufficient money to buy our medicinal materials, you are of course our distinguished
guest!”
The organizer’s main objective was to earn money, so they would not bother whether one had a ticket
or not.
After listening to the organizer’s words, the security guard could not find any excuse anymore. After a
deep breath, he turned away and left.
However, would this be the end?
Moments ago, Chen Hao had taken a strand of hair from the security guard without anyone noticing.
“I almost exploded with anger!” Yang Wei ranted resentfully.
“Ouch!”
Suddenly, the security guard who had just walked a few steps trembled vigorously and howled.
