The first few auction items were all talismans, ranging from elementary to high-level ones. Many Celestial Masters were interested in the intermediate and high-level talismans, while there wasn't much enthusiasm for the elementary ones. However, elementary talismans were very welcome among ordinary people.

After that was the auction for herbs which were all at least 100 years old. On Earth today, there were almost no herbs that were 1,000 or 10,000 years old. Chi Shuyan suspected that even those reclusive families probably didn't have herbs that were 1,000 years old.

Although they were century-old herbs, Chi Shuyan was still very interested. But when a sky-high starting price was called out for each of them, Chi Shuyan's heart collapsed.

Qi Zhenbai was extremely good at reading people. With a quick glance, he knew what his wife wanted. What he had was money, so as long as his wife wanted it, he would immediately bid for it.

How could Chi Shuyan not know that the man in front of her was buying things for her? Every time this man offered a sky-high price, it made her jump in fright. At first, she still calculated how much she owed this man, but when the man finished picking up several things in a row, she realized that even if she sold herself, she wouldn't be able to pay him back.

Chi Shuyan was about to refuse the man who was buying things on her behalf, but a pill furnace appeared next. She had come this time for this pill furnace. When the price for the pill furnace was called out, Chi Shuyan felt despair and only then realized how poor she was.

This time, she didn't refuse as the man bought the pill furnace for her, mainly because she planned to rely on this thing to make money. How could she not buy it?

When this man won the bid for the pill furnace, Chi Shuyan no longer planned to let him buy anything for her. She calculated how much she owed this man and when she could pay him back with interest.

Although they were now in a relations.h.i.+p, she still didn't plan to spend the man's money. In the end, the auction revealed its crowning glory: level 3 Energy Recovery Pills, which were mainly used to recover spiritual energy quickly.

Chi Shuyan saw hope in this bottle of level 3 Energy Recovery Pills. Seeing how this bottle of pills was actually auctioned off at an astronomical figure as people almost went crazy as they fought for it, Chi Shuyan gasped. This was the true money-maker!

For a moment, Chi Shuyan saw hope for her endless debt, and she heaved a sigh of relief.

Except for the pill furnace, there actually wasn't anything else about this auction that was a surprise. The main reason was that there were too few things on Earth that were really useful to her now. However, it also let her know how rare the medicinal pills of Celestial Masters were.

This was definitely a good way to make money.

This trip also profoundly taught her how the man next to her could spend money without batting an eye.

She had been afraid earlier that these few things would empty out the man's pockets.

How could Qi Zhenbai not understand what his wife was thinking? In his heart, he thought that to some extent, he still had to show his wife his ability to make money.

Otherwise, his wife would worry about emptying his pockets every day!

Even if his wife was good at spending money, he could afford it.

The two went backstage to collect the auction items and then left together.

When she left, Chi Shuyan was still thinking about paying off her debt. She had just learned how to refine the Marrow Cleansing Pill, although she hadn't succeeded last time because the furnace exploded. She remembered that the owner of the pill formulas left in the white jade said that refining pills was sometimes harder than ascending to the heavens, and was mainly based on talent.

Chi Shuyan felt uncertain.

Qi Zhenbai could see that his wife was lost in thought. She had been in a trance ever since they left the auction house. Of course, he didn't know that the pressure from being in debt was too great!

“What are you thinking about?” The man's deep and powerful voice rang out.

“What do you think is the fastest and easiest way to make money?” Chi Shuyan blurted out.

Qi Zhenbai looked at his wife meaningfully. He became even more resolved to show his wife that he was good at making money, but he still replied, “Stocks?”

Chi Shuyan shook her head.

“Gambling on stones?”

“That will work!”
