“Could it really be that I have to go door-to-door to pharmacies to sell Starfall Elixir?”

David Jones lay on the sofa and gulped down the spirit water that Lolo handed him, thinking worriedly.

Although there were quite a few generous pharmacies like Boss Mayer’s Spring Hall, they were definitely not many.

At least among the pharmacies he searched, only two out of ten could offer a 70% purchase price, five could offer 60%, and as for the remaining three greedy bosses, they could only offer 40-50%.

After a busy day, he only managed to sell twenty out of his 120 Starfall Elixirs worth nearly a billion dollars, earning 14 million Star coins and still had 100 bottles left in his possession.

Just at this moment, David’s phone in his pocket began to vibrate.

He picked up the phone and glanced at it, seeing the contact displayed on the screen was Margaret Yule. Curious, David pressed the answer button.

“The Black Gold Auction House’s annual auction is scheduled for tomorrow night. I wonder if you’re interested?”

Upon hearing this, David froze for a moment. He had heard some news about this famous auction house.

The Black Gold Auction House was well-known for its pill and hidden bidding resource trading, attracting numerous bloody Psychic Trainers who lived on the edge. It was said that the force behind this auction house was Waterland City’s Trainer family, the Carters.

The Carter family was a famous Pharmacy family in Waterland City, and the current head of the family, Windsor Carter, was an extremely revered Master level Pharmacist, highly respected, and was said to be over 250 years old. He was also one of the top King level Trainers in Waterland City.

“I’ve heard of this auction house, but I don’t know much about it,” said David straightforwardly.

He hadn’t been wealthy before and never even entered the Black Gold Auction House, let alone the treasures auctioned inside.

Margaret Yule was not surprised by this and continued to introduce with a smile.

“The Black Gold Auction House’s main business is pill auctions, and the most famous one is the S tier Class V Longevity Elixir, which can add three years to one’s life after refining!”

“This year, in addition to the pills, the Black Gold Auction House also plans to develop both pet and arcane implement businesses.

It’s said that to expand their market and reputation, the Black Gold Auction House has prepared many treasured items for auction this year, including even King level pet offspring.”

“The auction will officially start at 6 pm tomorrow. Are you interested?”

Upon hearing the word ‘elixir,’ David’s spirits lifted, “Does this auction house accept the Starfall Elixir and high-level pet resources?”

Why was it so difficult for him to sell his own refined elixir?

The plain truth was that he knew too few channels to sell and had a hard time monetizing his resources.

Among the people David knew, the only one who could help him deal with a large number of elixirs was Rosalind Louise, but he couldn’t sell all the elixirs he refined to his own senior sister!

Moreover, he still lacked more than half of the resources required for Daphne’s Species Evolution. If he participated in this auction, he might have a chance to directly complete his resource collection and expand his monetization channels.

Upon hearing this, Margaret Yule couldn’t help but reveal a pleased smile on her face.

She wasn’t afraid of David’s troubles, only that she couldn’t help him.

“Level IV pet resources and above can be directly auctioned off, but Starfall Elixir may not be eligible. I’m acquainted with the Auction House steward. If you want to sell Starfall Elixir, I can introduce you to him.”

David’s eyes lit up: “Thank you for the trouble!”

Margaret Yule immediately pouted, “What trouble? If you’re this polite, I’ll be angry!”

Then she changed the subject subtly: “Alright, see you at 6 pm tomorrow.”

David: “Okay.”

The Black Gold Auction House was open only to the upper class or strong ones in Waterland City, and only those with an invitation could participate.

At this moment, a luxurious car slowly stopped in front of the auction house entrance.

“Miss Yule, we have arrived,” the driver said respectfully.

Looking at the imposing Trainer guards at the gate, David awkwardly touched the metal mask on his face and followed Margaret Yule, who wore a rose mask, into the magnificent auction house.

Wearing a mask at the Black Gold Auction House, where hidden auctions were prevalent, could effectively avoid unwanted attention. The mask on David’s face was specially prepared by Margaret Yule.

“This way, please.” The beautiful usher at the entrance led the way, taking David and Margaret Yule directly to the third floor.

The first-floor space of the auction house was extremely spacious, and the interior decoration was very upscale. The huge screen on the wall used to display treasures was the main auction venue.

The second floor displayed a large amount of valuable pet resources, and each counter holding pet resources had Trainers guarding it.

The third floor consisted of exquisite and luxurious private boxes, specifically provided for guests attending the auction, ensuring that no one could disturb the bidding guests.

As one of the top Trainer families in Waterland City, the Yule family was also highly influential. Though Margaret Yule couldn’t represent the Yules, she, as a direct descendant, naturally had the qualification to book a separate box on the third floor of the Black Gold Auction House.

Sitting on the luxurious sofa, David could see the elegant main venue downstairs at a glance.

Margaret Yule: “The grand auction on the first floor will officially begin at eight o’clock, and the silent auction on the second floor is currently underway.” The so-called secret bidding was bidding in secret.

With the Trainer resources listed on the second floor auctioned off in a secret bidding manner, the silent auction started at six o’clock and lasted for an hour and a half.

If one saw an item of interest on the second floor, all they needed to do was fill in the specific price or pet resource and room number at the counter.

Whoever had the highest bid won!

After the silent auction was over, the Black Gold Auction House would deliver the resources to the highest bidder’s room for settlement.

Because the Black Gold Auction House kept all bidders’ information secret, its credibility was excellent, and its reputation was widely praised, allowing it to stand out among many auction houses and become a terrifying money-devouring monster with the support of resources provided by the Carter family.

“Ding dong!” A knock on the door suddenly sounded.

“Come in,” said Margaret Yule.

The next second, a middle-aged man dressed in a suit and looking like a gentleman entered the room with a professional smile on his face.

This man was Benjamin Carter, the steward and Identifier of the Black Gold Auction House.

“Welcome to the Black Gold Auction. May I know what item the esteemed guest would like to have identified and consigned?”

“These items on the table,” replied David.

Then he saw a flash of light from the Star Ring between his fingers, and hundreds of jade bottles and four shining stones appeared on the expensive table..
