The Princess and the Paupers

Chapter 22

Chapter 22

Kelly was taken aback by the price. “Even the leftover stuff costs twenty grand?”

There were three buttons in front of the glass wall, labeled ten grand, fifty grand, and a hundred grand, respectively.

In other words, the minimum bid increase was ten grand.

Serena stood in front of the glass wall, watching as the amount on the screens in the other boxes lit up blue. After several rounds of bidding, the price had already risen to a hundred and twenty grand.

“Serena, this thing’s pretty cool. You could buy it and make some soup for Phillip. It’ll be good for his health, and he’ll know you’re a good girl. He’ll definitely appreciate it…

Serena also wanted to get her hands on this treasure, but the competition from the other buyers was too fierce. She had pressed the ten-grand button several times without success, so she decided to take a risk and press the hundred-grand button!

The room fell silent.

[Bidding at two hundred and fifty grand for the first time!]

[Bidding at two hundred and fifty grand for the second time!]

[Bidding at two hundred and fifty grand for the third time! Sold!]

[Congratulations to buyer number 19 on winning a bottle of HeartRevive!]

Kelly couldn’t believe that even the leftovers could sell for such a high price. “Bella, can I have the leftovers next time?”

Arabella just smiled at her. “If I gave them to you, would you know what to do with them?”

“Hehe, you could help me use them~”

Serena finally managed to win the auction item, hugging her best friend in excitement.

The next few items were all decorations, which she wasn’t interested in. She left early to go home and make soup.

By the time the main event came around, it was two hours later.

*Mr. McMillian, the HeartEase Herb is up.”

Six fresh green plants rose from the stage, nourished by a special solution. They were extremely valuable.

[Starting price, a hundred grand.]

Carl knew that Mr. McMillian had to have this little thing, so he went ahead and bid an extra hundred grand.

The amount of the bid from box number 1 shocked everyone in the other boxes.
