The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

About ten minutes later, the tables in the Yunyin Hall were all full. Xu Yiyu also saw Yan Xuhan, who had taken the elevator at the same time as him, walk onto the stage which was less than three meters away from him in a straight line. He knew that the final highlight was about to begin.

"Dear guests, I will still be the auctioneer for the next five lots. However, before the auction officially begins, I still have to inform you of a few things you need to pay attention to when bidding."

According to usual practice, if it were the last five lots in previous auctions, the auctioneer in charge of presiding over the auction would not tell the guests in the audience what they need to pay attention to in such a high-profile manner.

However, due to the many changes that occurred in this year's treasure auction, and the fact that the scale and preciousness of the items were different from previous years, Yan Xuhan's move did not arouse any objections. No one present, even those from the four major families, dared to show dissatisfaction.

"First, the auction mode for the last five items of this treasure auction is still the same as the bidding mode of the first six days. All the distinguished guests need to do is use the electronic bidding device in their hands to send their bidding price to the backstage, and the backstage data will be displayed on the big screen immediately."

Xu Yiyu was not surprised at all about the first precaution. She was curious about the following precautions that needed to be followed.

"Second, the delivery model of four of the last five lots of this auction will still follow the previous ones, with the last lot being an exception. After everyone has made their bids, the successful bidder will be taken backstage by our on-site staff to meet the seller of the lot directly. If the other party refuses to deliver the lot to the successful bidder after the conversation, everyone present here can bid again, and the previous successful bidder will be automatically disqualified from bidding and will not be allowed to bid a second time."

As soon as Yan Xuhan finished speaking, two tables of guests who were farther away from Xu Yiyu began to discuss, as if they were about to raise objections.

This note was too special, and even the guests who did not intend to raise any objections seemed a little confused. However, due to their limited status, it was inconvenient for them to clearly express their doubts in front of everyone.

Zhou Fu and Gu Liang, who was sitting at the table next to him, turned their heads slightly and looked at each other, as if they had exchanged some unspoken information, and soon they withdrew their gazes.

They had long anticipated that someone would raise objections to this note, but even if objections were raised, the four major families would never modify this rule because of these people's objections.

The information about that thing was too important. Even if the four families would make enemies because of today's tough actions, they could not make any concessions.

As expected, after the two tables of guests expressed their objections to this rule, two staff members soon walked towards them and whispered something to them. Xu Yiyu clearly saw that the faces of the two tables of guests changed instantly when the staff members finished speaking, and they glanced at the location of the four major families with obvious annoyance, but ultimately did not make any rebuttal.

Seeing that the staff had dealt with these "objections", Gu Liang looked up at Yan Xuhan who was standing on the stage. Yan Xuhan seemed to have received some signal and immediately talked about the third point of precaution.

"Third, bidders who have successfully won the five lots today must pay in cash or by credit card on the spot. They may not delay the payment of any amount of the bid until the next day in any form. Please prepare the funds in advance and bid with caution."

If the previous precaution only caused objections from the people at the two tables, then this precaution seemed to have hit the sore spot of many people present. In the Yunyin Hall, which was originally so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, there were suddenly discussions and protests one after another, as if they were quite dissatisfied with the precautions set by the four major families.

The four family heads had anticipated that the guests would be dissatisfied. After all, in the past, many guests would use their shares or collections at home to pay the corresponding amount of the auction money. Although it was not listed in the form of formal clauses, almost everyone knew that this was an unwritten understanding between the four major families and the guests.

"The four major families are willing to offend so many people to ensure that the auction funds are received as soon as possible? It seems that the importance of these five items is even greater than I thought..."

Xu Yiyu pondered the information revealed by the third rule - she did not find it strange that the bidding amount needed to be settled in person, but the fact that it was required to be paid in cash or by wire transfer basically completely eliminated the confidence of some potential buyers to bid, and would also offend many people at once. Under normal circumstances, this was definitely not the style of the four family heads.

There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Such strict auction rules mean that the seller needs a huge amount of cash to get anything done, and does not have extra time to resell the buyer's collection or shares.

“It’s getting more and more interesting…”

Xu Yiyu murmured in a low voice, and this time the commotion in Yunyin Hall took the staff nearly five minutes to calm down, and no one knew how much it cost.

"Fourth, after you have completed today's bidding, you must not interfere with the successful bidders' right to dispose of each item in any form or by any means. If you use any means to blackmail, threaten, or endanger the personal safety of any owner of an item, the four major families will definitely investigate to the end. Please be careful if you have any ill intentions."

When Yan Xuhan mentioned this point of caution, layers of cold sweat broke out on his back unconsciously, and he kept sighing in his heart at the thundering methods of the four major families.

Although the four major families were openly discussed together by many business people before, fundamentally, the four families were enemies. This rule was like a joint statement, directly and openly informing everyone of the alliance of the four families.

To put it bluntly, it is a blatant threatening statement.

Xu Yiyu almost wanted to applaud the four courageous family heads regardless of the occasion. From their current attitude, it was not difficult to judge how important the status of the last five items was, to the extent that they were willing to sacrifice their years of accumulated reputation to ensure the safety of those items.

Xu Yiyu didn't know what she would do if faced with a similar situation, but that didn't stop her from admiring the actions of the four family heads.

The audience fell silent for a second. Except for Xu Yiyu, almost everyone was weighing the consequences of offending the four major families, but no one dared to express their dissatisfaction openly.

Raising objections and directly confronting the four major families are two different concepts, and almost no one present can bear the consequences of doing so.

Yan Xuhan on the stage calmed herself down and made sure that she was in normal condition before continuing to speak.

"I have already informed you of the precautions, and I will not repeat them during the subsequent bidding process."

"I officially declare that the bidding for the last five lots of this auction has begun!"
