Next came ten consecutive sets, each consisting of 500 Intermediate Lesser Returning Pills. Again, these were all auctioned off at high prices exceeding 5.2 million taels. They primarily went to the Yan Army Guard, the Shadow Guard, and the occupants of Private Box No. 2. Unlike the bidding for the Junior Lesser Returning Pills, Private Box No. 2 had now begun to participate in the competition.
It seemed that with Private Box No. 2 in the chase, Private Boxes No. 4, No. 5, and No. 7 also joined the fray. Although they were only Intermediate Lesser Returning Pills, they were a rarity in the market.
Soon, after another 30 intensely contested sets, the seven private boxes each successfully secured four sets before the bidding finally moved to the smaller chambers of commerce in the main auction hall on the first floor.
