The second-floor venue of the auction was styled much like the first floor.
In the middle of the hall, there was a massive round stage.
To the left of the stage were four rows of long benches, and to the right, complete sets of wooden tables and chairs, with tea and sweets laid out on the tables.
And the people sitting on either side had quite a difference in their attire and conversation.
Those seated on the benches were dressed plainly.
Those by the tables, however, were clothed in lavish garments, their actions exuding grace. The watches worn by the men and the jewelry sported by the women were, at a glance, extraordinary.
It was not hard to see that the people here were all either rich or of noble status.
"Hello, sir, are you here to participate in the auction?"

"Yes, I am."
