Chapter 186: Inviting the Prince Into the Trap

It was really surprising that there was such a place in the Ancient Flame City.

Miao Qing nodded and said, “That’s indeed the case. Moreover, when I asked around, someone told me that this casino was organized by the crown prince and one of the three great clans of Ancient Flame City, the Sima clan.”

This news was very secretive. It was very obvious that the person who told him this must have been instructed by someone.

“Then let’s choose this place. Find the person in charge and buy this place.” As he spoke, Lin Mo lifted his foot and walked in.

“Which one of you is in charge here?” After he finished speaking, a middle-aged man hurriedly ran out.

“They’re finally here. Those lords were right as expected.” This man seemed to have grabbed onto a life-saving straw and was extremely excited.

“This lord, you’re here to purchase the auction house, right? It’s not much, a million low-grade spiritual stones. After you help me pay off my debt, this auction house will be yours,” That person said excitedly.

What he said caused Lin Mo to frown.

He had intentionally told him that the underground casino was jointly organized by the crown prince and the Sima clan.

Now, this person had received news that Lin Mo would come to purchase the auction house and even set the price.

If Lin Mo’s guess was not wrong, this person should have gone bankrupt a few days ago...

“You’re the owner of the Wanxiang auction house. Didn’t you run away?” Duanmu Jia asked.

“I didn’t manage to run away and was caught. Sir, are you buying or not? One million is very cheap...” His face was full of smiles as he looked at Lin Mo expectantly.

“Alright, this is one million. You can leave now.” Lin Mo very naturally took out a cloth bag.

There were 1,000,000 low-grade spiritual stones in it. That person gave it a cursory glance before running off happily.

“Master, this auction house sent out an invitation three days ago. They’re going to hold an auction.” Miao Qing said.

He had gone to settle the wages of the servants here and had gotten the information from them.

However, the Wanxiang auction house only had a dozen or so treasures in stock, all of which were at tier 5 or tier 6.

This was not enough to support a single auction, but it was not too bad in Lin City.

However, it would only be a small-scale auction.

For someone in the Ancient Flame City to send an invitation in advance, they would need at least a top-grade tier 7 item.

As for them, they did not know how many invitations they had sent. If they had sent the invitations to all the three great clans, then tier 7 might not be enough.

“How many items did we bring this time?” Lin Mo asked.

Before coming here, Duanmu Jia was the one organizing the auction items. However, because Lin City did not have many resources, she had specially gone to the Duanmu clan’s chamber of commerce to purchase them.

“Master, we have ten tier 7 treasures, thirty-two tier 6 treasures, and ten million spiritual stones.”

“That’s not right. We just spent one million, and there’s still nine million left.”

“I’m sorry, master. I should have brought more spiritual stones.”

After Duanmu Jia finished her report, she looked apologetic. She did not expect to be schemed against the moment she arrived.

If she had not gone to the Duanmu clan’s chamber of commerce to buy some treasures in advance, she probably would not have been able to pass the first round.

“Alright, you guys clean up the auction house. Those servants can’t be used. There’s a mole. Hire mercenaries and hire them at a high price.”

“The auction will be held in three days. Leave the resources to me.”

After giving his instructions, he took all the treasures from Duanmu Jia and left.

There was also an auction house in the Ancient Flame City.

Coincidentally, one of the three great clans, the Mu clan, held an action in advance today.

“Is the Mu clan cooperating with the crown prince or the fourth prince...”

Lin Mo shook his head. He planned to participate in this auction and see what they were up to.

“What luck! We’ve just arrived at the Ancient Flame City and we’ve already come across such good news.”

“That’s right. The Mu clan business group has purchased a low-grade tier 8 spirit pill outside. Hence, they’re holding an auction ahead of time. I really want to get it.”

“What are you thinking about? How can a tier 8 spirit pill be yours?”

Someone said. This type of tier 8 8 spirit pill was going to be snatched up the moment it appeared.

The people from the three great clans were all pumped up. If they wanted to obtain this tier 8 spirit pill, they would have to pay a price.

“Tier 8 spirit pill...” Lin Mo listened to the discussions of the people around him and understood what was going on.

The Mu and Sima clans seemed to have joined forces with the fourth prince and crown prince.

Now that he had come, this show of force was giving him enough face...

They had allowed the auction house he had bought to send out invitations in advance, inviting all sorts of factions to participate.

With so many people coming over, if he took out a tier 7 treasure to fool them, he was afraid that someone would tear down the place.

Even if they did not tear it down, he would not be able to continue living in the Ancient Flame City.

Wanting a tier 8 treasure was easier said than done. Even in Jingdou, tier 8 treasures would only be auctioned on a specific day.

However, these people had already prepared the treasures for him and were now waiting for him to buy them...

“I’m afraid they’ve already arranged for me to raise the price.”

“However, I can only play half of this game before flipping the chessboard for you.” Lin Mo sneered as he walked into the auction house.

“Sir, may I ask if you’re buying or selling?” A waiter saw Lin Mo and his eyes lit up as he immediately came forward to welcome him.

She was very enthusiastic as she introduced the Mu clan’s auction house to Lin Mo.

“Help me auction off all of these treasures.” Lin Mo smiled.

It was not necessary to be in his auction house to receive a rebate from the auction. As long as it was something that belonged to him, he would be able to receive a rebate from the auction.

“This... This much?” The attendant was scared silly. Even the appraiser at the counter was scared silly.

Did this person empty out his family just for a tier 8 spirit pill?

Could it be that this guy really thought that he only needed spiritual stones to buy the spirit pills?

“Cough, cough, sir, your treasures are all extraordinary. Are you sure you want to sell them all?” The appraiser asked.

“I’m sure.” Lin Mo nodded.

After receiving Lin Mo’s confirmation, the appraiser became determined. He carefully observed each treasure and finally set the price.

“Sir, everything has been appraised. This is the key to your VIP room. Please take it,” the appraiser said respectfully.

Every single treasure that Lin Mo auctioned was worth a million. There was no problem for him to give a VIP card as he had over thirty treasures.

“Thank you.” After Lin Mo received it, he ignored the attendant beside him and turned around to walk towards the auction hall.

The attendant did not continue chasing after him. Instead, he secretly took out a jade talisman and crushed it.

At this moment, a man was watching the auction through the glass window.

Suddenly, he seemed to have sensed something and took out a jade talisman. His gaze was thought-provoking.

“The prey has appeared. Next, there will be a good show to watch.” He chuckled softly and stood up to walk out of the private room.

The moment he appeared, he saw Lin Mo walking over. He was stunned for a moment before he immediately smiled and went forward to welcome him.
