Every once in a while, the underground auction would hold a large-scale auction.

At that time, the underground auction house under the Intercontinental Hotel would be open to the public. All the major forces of the Independent Continent could participate.

Of course, usually, such large-scale auctions were mainly held by larger forces to auction what they wanted.

Small forces were just there to join in the fun.

It depended on luck. What if they picked up a bargain?

The people in the underground auction house had received the news very early today that the three big families were all in their auction house.

There was no need to mention the Ji and Xie families.

Both families were more active in the Independent Continent.

Especially the Ji family.

They were extremely keen to appear at auctions and other occasions.

Although the Xie family did not come every time, they often patronized the underground auction.

Only the Nan family had been in hiding for almost 20 years and rarely appeared in public. This time, Nan Tianyi actually came personally.

Not to mention that other well-informed people in the auction house had heard about it and were guessing what Nan Tianyi was eyeing this time.

Even the people in the auction house were curious about what attracted so many big bosses to participate in the auction this time.

Soon, the auction began.

Be it Beijing, the illegal district, or the Independent Continent, the auctions, regardless of size, had similar forms.

Professional auctioneers were in charge of displaying the collection. Then, there was a round of bidding. The highest bidder would get the collection.

In the beginning, the underground auction auctioned more common items, such as diamonds, jewelry, and antiques.

Almost no one from the private rooms participated in the bidding.

Just people from some small forces participated in the auction. And, the prices they offered were not high. They were just playing around to liven up the atmosphere.

Everyone thought that the guests in the private rooms would not make a move until the finale.

After all, they had often encountered such a situation in the past. These big shots would not participate in the bidding for some of the trinkets in the beginning. They would only start bidding when the final few pieces were out. Before that, they would be quiet.

Who knew that this time was an exception!

The fifth round of the auction was the collection of a small family that Ye Wangchuan had mentioned—the meat Ganoderma.

After the meat Ganoderma was brought up, the auctioneer introduced it to everyone as usual before starting the auction.

"The starting price of this meat Ganoderma is two million yuan. Every increment must be at least 100,000 yuan." The auctioneer first set the standard on the starting price and rules.

Some people began to bid.

"2.1 million." A round-faced man casually called out a price.

"2.2 million."

Then, another woman in her forties casually added 100,000 yuan.

This was because meat Ganoderma was similar to diamonds and antiques. In the eyes of people in the Independent Continent, it was better than nothing.

Most of the people participating in the bidding increased the price intending to keep it in case it was useful.

No one offered a high price.

Most people added 100,000 yuan to each bid.

It was as if they weren't serious about getting it. If they couldn't get it, it didn't matter.

"2.7 million."

"3 million."

The price was gradually raised to three million yuan, so the number of people raising the signs below the stage gradually decreased. Many people began to think that it was not worth it anymore.

In a private room.

Nan Tianyi had been paying close attention to the bidding outside. He saw the trend and that the number of bidders was gradually decreasing.

His heart tightened.

He turned around and looked at the girl anxiously and puzzledly. "Nian Nian, why aren't you bidding?"
