"However, we have no power to grant the auction license to the Sloan Family. We will have to postpone this issue until the guild master comes back in a week."
The Alchemist Guild gave this statement in the end.
Unfortunately, Ainsley had to start her auction precisely in 3-4 days. If she waited for the guild master to come back, she would have to cancel her reservation…
Also, the guild master wouldn't just immediately grant the license, right?
The matter with a legal auction license given to other forces aside from the alchemist guild was the first in history because so far, no one managed to get the auction license.
Not even the Billios Family. But they held an illegal auction, and people would still trust them over their reputation.
Ainsley was trying to do the same thing now. There were many countless illegal auctions out there...and some were famous to be trustworthy.
As long as her security remained good and the customers didn't cheat on her, everything would be okay.
Thus, after getting the alchemist guild' potion assessment result, Ainsley immediately prepared for the auction.
She deployed her newly recruited mafia members...about 1000 of them.
Well, the one she chose were those having low-level monsters given by the family. They're those who have sworn an oath.
[Surprise mission for the mafia members! Participate in the family's first illegal potion auction and earn 100-1000 points!]
This notification entered everyone's app, easily gathering the new members to join the auction project.
Ainsley input what the new members had to do and the contribution points they would get for each corresponding duty.
The security department got the most contribution points, up to 1000 for the captain and 800-ish for the members.
That's like ten times the points one usually got from the daily missions!
Ainsley included the restriction and requirements for the applicants that wanted to join the auction project.
There were at least 300 slots provided, and Ainsley gave 200 of them to the loyal ones who had sworn an oath, especially the elites, before giving the rest of the slot to the other members.
As usual, the human resource department would be the one sorting the Sloan mafia members that would participate in their first auction project.
All of these matters were settled in less than 2 days while Ainsley went to see the auction hall. She checked the security, the display, the layout, etc, before doing some paperwork for the auction.
Since she had announced the auction would be held soon, she didn't need to worry about the big shots not visiting her auction.
What she had to worry about is the possibility of robbery and other assaults when the auction was ongoing.
For this, she employed her people to make special guards. She also got 4 of the 9 generals to guard the auction hall.
H-1 of the auction day.
"Hmmm, twis should do." Ainsley looked at the paperwork she did for the past few days and nodded in satisfaction.
The paperwork was a kind of contract that the customer had to sign after bidding for the potion and paying for it.
It was stated there that any kind of mishaps they met after the purchase wouldn't be the family's fault. And the family guaranteed the potion authenticity upon purchasing it.
This way, the customers couldn't lie and said that the potions were fake. They also couldn't blame the family if someone else robbed the potions after they bought it.
"Huft...tomowwow, huh…" Ainsley let out a sigh as she put down the contract she had prepared. She would be selling 3 bottles per type...so there would be around 18 bottles.
18 agreements to be signed, then. That's quite a lot, but considering it was an auction, the items to be auctioned weren't that many.
"Let's see the public respwonse abwout tomowwow' auction…" Ainsley snatched her phone from the table and browsed the internet.
She had released the bidding currency that she accepted, which would be valued with dollars.
She had also hired someone with an appraisal ability to make sure that the items the customers used as their bidding were all authentic.
Of course, this appraisal master was actually someone from her elite gang that had sworn loyalty to her. She gave him more contribution points and even gave him some money for this duty!
"Mmmm…" Ainsley mumbled as she read the articles and comments in the forum or any other platforms regarding her family's potion auction.
So far, the public response was good. Many big forces' official social media accounts expressed their support for the auction and would definitely attend.
Some local forces even expressed their dissatisfaction toward the Roane Alchemist Guild for threatening anyone that wanted to join the auction.
"An illegal miracle auction once in a hundred years, don't miss this!"
"Let's bid for some miraculous potions. It's rumoured to be potions made by an elf!"
"The Drake Family will definitely bid for the Juvenile Potion, recalling their old and weak patriarch."
"The Godlif Shaman Guild Master, Riemann, expressed her intention to join the auction for the spirit-nourishment potion!"
"The head of the number one adventure guild in the Godlif country wants to bid for the soul-healing potion."
"The mysterious Godlif Summoner Guild master is rumoured to be interested in the core-healing potion!"
"The Godlif Alchemist guild vice head is going to bring a bunch of senior alchemists to attend the auction and get one of the miraculous potions."
"The Sloan Family's auctioned potions are rumoured to be made by the elves! Once in a million opportunities."
"The Walter family is sending troops and support for their new sworn ally, the Sloan Family!"
When Ainsley saw the last article, she was a bit taken aback since she didn't know anything about this!
