Chapter: 1444
As he said, Goodwin turned his gaze, as if he was staring at the guests.
"You idiots! Do you hear me? I have personally approved the elixir formula of the Peony Pill, and classified it as a fourth-grade pill!
Maria sighed inwardly. She had made a point to mention that the Peony Pill was probably at grade three so that she could continue to keep a low profile.
But since Goodwin himself had classified it as a fourth-grade pill, she had no choice but to agree with him,
When Goodwin hung up, his face disappeared from the screen, and the silence that he left behind was deafening. Everyone was too stunned to speak.
After a long time, the beautiful hostess finally came to her senses. It seemed that the guests were waiting for her to take charge and say something.
Clearing her throat, she stammered, "The next item is the elixir formula of the fourth-grade Peony Pill. The bidding price will start... at one million dollars?"
Still not able to quite believe the situation, she unknowingly ended her sentence in a question. Did it make any sense?
Sure, this pill could only be taken by young women, but it had been established that it had a similar effect to that of the fifth-grade Reverse Pill. That was to say, for a certain group of users, the Peony Pill could actually be considered a fifth-grade pill.
“Perkins family, one hundred million!" The bidding had only just begun, but one of the ancient martial clans raised the price to one hundred million immediately.
In a blink of eye, the price soared from one million to one hundred million dollars! In the history of the charity event, a hundredfold increase in the bidding price had never happened before, let alone within the first bid itself.
What was even more appalling was that it did not scare the competitors away.
“The Gray family offers two hundred million!"
Barbara, who was sitting on the other side of the table, was so astonished that her jaw almost dropped open. How could this be possible? Even if... Even if the elixir formula of the pill was at the fourth grade, could the price rise this much? From a million to a hundred million, and now to two hundred million?
“Schultz family, three hundred million!" Another ancient martial clan stepped forward, raising the bid by another hundred million.
The smile on the hostess’ face stiffed. She had never witnessed such a scene in her life.
Ten seconds ago, the starting price of the elixir formula of Peony Pill was one million dollars, But now, it had risen to three hundred million dollars?
But it turned out that the battle had only just begun. The hostility among the bidders became stronger and stronger, and none of them seemed to want to back down.
“Hey, you! Just a few minutes ago, didn't you say that your clan will never participate in the bidding for an elixir formula written by Maria?"
“You bastard, why don't you just mind your own business? I can bid on whatever I want if I have the mone
“How ridiculous! Didn't the guy from the Perkins family just declare that they won't bid for this elixir formula? Why did they change their mind now?"
“Shut up, you son of a bitch! I never said anything like that!" The guests began to quarrel with one another, shedding all illusion of civility in the process. In order to get their hands on the formula of the Peony Pill, these noble clans began to call each other names using the most vulgar words in their language.
“Stop it! Be quiet, please!"
At this time, an old man stepped forward and took the microphone from the hostess. It was only after hearing his piercing voice which cut through the whole venue that the voices of the guests gradually ceased.
