4175 Even if I go bankrupt

"Hmm, young master Yuwen and young master Zeng's suggestion is fair. It all depends on whether young master Ling agrees or not." Elder Gong pretended to think for a moment and said.
'Keep pretending!' Ling Chuxi sneered in her heart. I hope you can continue to be so good at pretending.
Hearing Elder Gong's words, the people below the stage finally understood. So this Elder Gong was in cahoots with the Yuwen family, and was obviously trying to make things difficult for the Ling family?
As the ruling elder, how could he be in the same League as the Yuwen family? Everyone looked at Elder Gong with some disdain, but after all, his status was there for all to see, so no one dared to say anything. They could only look at Ling Chuxi with sympathy. Even though the enforcement Union had a high reputation, there was no lack of scum like this. Elder Gong and Zeng Zhengping had clearly been classified as scum.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Ling Chuxi continued to pretend to be unconfident. She frowned and thought hard.
"Sister Chuxi, we definitely can't embarrass ourselves. If you want to bid, then bid. If you want to use money to pressure our Ling family, don't even dream about it. We don't want these five-colored spirit stones anymore. We'll return them all to you. " Ling Yixin glared at Yuwen Siyuan and took out the 10000 Yuan pocket money that Ling Chuxi had given each of them a few days ago.
They knew that Ling Chuxi was the pavilion master of the pillheart Pavilion. However, they had also gained some understanding of the pillheart Pavilion back in Hezhou city. Although this alchemy Pavilion was somewhat famous, their days in the past few years had not been so good. They had even been on the verge of bankruptcy and had almost been kicked out of Xiuzhou city by the Xingfeng Chamber of Commerce.
It was only after Ling Chuxi joined that she managed to counterattack and rise up. However, she had been busy setting up branches all over the place for the past two years and probably did not have much cash on hand. In that case, Ling Chuxi probably did not have much money on her either.
In order to fight for their pride, Ling Yixin and the others had even donated all their pocket money.
"Take it back first, I don't need your help for the time being." Said Ling Chuxi as she declined. She probably felt embarrassed to raise money in front of so many people and even her face was red.
Seeing Ling Chuxi's face turn red, Ling Yixin and the others also felt that their actions were too petty and that they had made a fool of themselves in front of outsiders, so they temporarily kept their storage bags.
"Ling Chuxi, have you thought it through? However, I'll give you a piece of advice. It's best if you take these other quotas. The Ling clan is poor to begin with, so don't accidentally squander away the last bit of the Ling clan's wealth. " Seeing that Ling Chuxi was hesitant to make a decision, Yuwen Siyuan tried to goad her into action.
"Alright, I'll bid then. Don't think I'm afraid of you." As expected, Ling Chuxi had "fallen into a trap" and said angrily.
"AI!" Soft sighs could be heard from all around. As expected, Ling Chuxi was still unable to escape the trap set up by Elder Gong and the Yuwen family. However, she did not seem to have any other choice. After all, she was the one who had brought up the matter of the quota. It would be fine if she gave it up for some other reason, but she could not give it up when facing the Yuwen family. Even if she had to go bankrupt, she had to fight for it.
The good adjudication election hadn't even started yet, but it had turned into an auction. Many people felt that this was a bit strange, but they understood Elder Gong's intentions and no one dared to say anything.
"How about this? let's follow the rules of the auction. The starting price is 500000 five-colored spirit stones, and each bid must be no less than 100000 five-colored spirit stones. What do you think, elders?" Zeng Zhengping was afraid that Ling Chuxi would go back on her words, so he immediately added.
