James Smith was also curious about Michaela’s words, so he asked her, “Miss Joules, which auction house will hold this auction? I can try to find someone to run it and see if there is any way to add a quota.”
When James Smith said this, he didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. After all, he was the head of the FDA, a standard high-class society, an elite, and he knew many people from all walks of life, and several major international auction houses, so he believes he can find connections.

It is hosted by a local antique company in Aurous Hills. The entry threshold is very high. Only those with assets of more than 10 billion dollars are eligible to sign up. I guess your connections will most likely not reach here.”
James Smith was stunned, and blurted out, “10 billion dollars? This is too exaggerated?!”
Michaela shook her head and said, “It is not an exaggeration at all, and there are a lot of applicants. If the worth is only 10 billion, there is no chance of getting the final admission ticket.”
James Smith said with a look of horror, “So many top wealthy people believe that there is this miraculous medicine that can cure all diseases and even prolong life for more than ten years?”
Michaela nodded slightly, and said, “Yes, to use an old Chinese saying, I would rather believe that there is something than nothing.”
