Black Market Auction House

Although this place was called The Black Market Auction House, it was a big and popular building which was not considered illegal, nor was it a place which earned money from criminal activities.

The reason that it had gotten its name was because of the policy that the Ma family had followed from the start. When an item appeared at their auction, they did not care how it had been achieved by the seller. If they had stolen it or robbed someone, even if they had murdered the previous owners, it was nothing that the Black Market Auction House would care about. The same went for old heirlooms of declining families which was sold here, no one knew who the sellers were and anonymity was the key.

As soon as an item had been sold through the Black Market Auction House, the new owners had gained all rights to the item, and it could only be taken from them if the new owners wished to give it to others, sell it to others or if it had been taken from them by force.

The road leading to the Black Market Auction House was paved with marble and on each side was a lawn which was groomed meticulously. The lawn was framed with big trees that had been groomed into squares, and jade statues could be seen placed in the middle of the lawns.

Behind the beautiful landscape was the main building which was adorned with gold on all the pillars. Magical beasts had been carved into the frames and statues of beasts had been created from marble and more jade.

The door was created from marble much like the pavement, but the doorframe and door handles were created from pure gold. All the colours were kept in white, red and black.

The entire premises was tightly guarded by groups of experts who would patrol in specific patterns and even the guards at the door were at least Grand Master ranked.
