At the same time, on the other side, at the Skywind Chamber of Commerce.
Before the sun rose in the morning, the gate of the Skywind Chamber of Commerce was already crowded with people. One magnificent carriage after another stopped at the gate of the Chamber of Commerce.
Some people who got up early all widened their eyes and stopped to watch the scene.
“Is that the carriage of Grand Duke Ryan from the south of the city? Why is he here personally?”
“That’s the carriage of the Chen family’s master! And that, that’s Baron Sith!”
“These nobles, who are rarely seen, are actually waiting for the opening of the Skywind Chamber of Commerce today?”
The surrounding crowd discussed animatedly as they looked at the Skywind Chamber of Commerce’s main gate in astonishment.
They didn’t know what had happened to make these nobles gather together.
As soon as the sun rose, the gate of Skywind Chamber of Commerce opened with a click. Those grand nobles and Grand Dukes were like animals waiting to be fed, instantly sniffing the fragrance of the food.
“Miss Phyllis, our Ryan family is willing to pay twice the price. We will buy all of today’s Magic Enhancement Potion!”
Just as the members of the Ryan family spoke, the representatives of the major nobles around them immediately burst into an uproar and revealed furious expressions.
“Get lost! We were the ones who came first! Don’t you understand the principle of first come first serve?”
“Hehe, there are only so many Magic Enhancement Potions. Naturally, whoever gets it first will get it. Let me tell you, our family is very poor. We are so poor that we only have gold coins left!”
“Hehe! It sounds like you are not poor! Let me tell you, Lady Phyllis’ father and I have been old friends for many years. I have already reserved 80% of this batch of goods. You can split the rest among yourselves!”
“Hehe, it seems that you are planning to experience the power of our Ryan family!”
Before the Chamber of Commerce had officially opened its doors, those luxuriously dressed noble lords were already red-faced and brawling in front of the Chamber of Commerce’s doors.
The surrounding people had never seen such a scene before. They were all stunned.
These noble lords had actually started to fight in public for the sake of the so-called Magic Enhancement Potion, completely disregarding the interests of the nobles.
On the second floor, Phyllis’ maid saw the nobles fighting downstairs and smiled.
“Miss, I didn’t expect the Magic Enhancement Potion to be so popular,” the maid said in surprise.
Phyllis smiled and said, “The nobles I visited yesterday are basically all talented nobles who have not been exposed to much magic. The Magic Enhancement Potion is undoubtedly a heart-strengthening potion for them. They have money in their hands, so they don’t care how much they spend. What they care about is that the Magic Enhancement Potion can satisfy the regret in their hearts.”
The regret of not being able to break through and embark on the path of cultivation.
One had to know that not everyone had superb talent in magic.
The students of the Saint Laurent Magic Academy were glorious, but who knew how many mediocre youths they were stepping on?
…
On the other side, the Werewolf Guild, which had been open for a long time, only a few people came today.
“What’s going on?”
The person in charge of the auction house frowned at the idle people on the seats. He had invited the great nobles and Grand Dukes a few days ago, but none of them came today.
A few days ago, he had sent an invitation to all the customers in the name of the Werewolf Guild. Their Werewolf Guild would hold an auction today, and the items being auctioned were naturally very rare and precious luxury items.
For example, the snow fox fur in the North Pole, the artwork crafted by the elves, and the beast-eared girl from the southwest. All of these things were useless apart from being expensive and good-looking.
However, the nobles loved these things.
Today, none of the nobles showed up.
“Sir! Something bad has happened!” A werewolf attendant ran in in panic and said, “Those nobles started fighting in front of the Skywind Chamber of Commerce!”
The person in charge was a human. He frowned and asked, “What’s going on?”
The attendant said in panic, “I heard that Miss Phyllis of the Skywind Chamber of Commerce is holding an auction today. She wants to auction ten bottles of Magic Enhancement Potion. Those nobles are fighting over that potion!”
The person in charge opened his eyes wide and said angrily, “What did you say? Ten bottles of Magic Enhancement Potion? Where did they get that kind of thing?!”
The price of a Magic Enhancement Potion was not very high in the inner circle of the Imperial City, but those things would not be sold in public. Those who could get it were the great nobles in the core circle of the Empire, and in a place like Saint Laurent City… There was simply no way to get the Magic Enhancement Potion.
“I don’t know either!” The attendant said in panic, “Lady Phyllis personally visited dozens of nobles and rich people yesterday. Who would have thought that she was going to sell this kind of thing!”
The person-in-charge’s face was gloomy, and he said, “I have to go to the headquarters and inform the President!”
In the meeting room of the Werewolf Guild’s headquarters, after the Werewolf Guild’s President listened to his report, he frowned and tapped on the table with his fingers.
“How could that little girl have such a thing like the Magic Enhancement Potion? Where did she get such a channel?”
The person in charge of the auction house said in a deep voice, “President! It’s only ten bottles of Magic Enhancement Potion. I don’t think she can make any waves!”
The werewolf, Nova, said with a solemn face, “It’s hard to say. Can’t you see that the little girl is only shouting in the hunger camp to bid up the price? She must have more than ten bottles of Magic Enhancement Potion. If she has some channel to obtain the potion, we don’t know how much more she can take out.”
The person in charge of the auction house said with a pale face, “President, even if she has the channel of Magic Enhancement Potions, it’s still not enough to compete with our guild!”
The President said in a deep voice, “I’ve dealt with their family for so many years. I’ve watched that little girl grow up. Don’t underestimate her. As long as she has a little bit of initiative, she can change her ways to deal with us!”
“This time, so many nobles have been poached by her. She will definitely think of ways to keep them all! She has other goods that she can take out!”
“Guild Leader, then what should we do?” the person in charge asked with a frown.
The werewolf Nova lowered his brows and thought for a few seconds before saying, “Think of a way to investigate the source of the Magic Enhancement Potion. If possible, we can pay any price. We must take down this channel.”
He was a little frustrated. The Wolf King had not finished his business yet, and something was about to happen to the guild.
It was really a case of a house falling into the rain, and a ship falling into the wind.
