Obviously, no one believed what Frank was saying about his Jade Marrow Pill, as they were all experienced-trying to trick them was just asking to be humiliated.
"Shit, and here I thought we peaked with Hugh Turnbull's fake vase." "Yeah... And now we have a snake oil salesman. This charity auction is killing me." "Con. Maybe the pill actually works?"

As for the effect, only the buyer who uses it would know. And since no one believes me, I'll just sell it at the price of the fake vase before: one dollar."

Still, just as everyone appeared to be dismissive of Frank, Tet actually walked on stage, carefully taking the small wooden chest from Frank.
He opened the chest, carefully sniffed it, and began to hyperventilate as he turned toward Frank, his eyes widened in disbelief.
"The pill..." His voice quivered even as his whole body shuddered.
Seeing Tet trembling, Hugh was convinced that Frank's pill had left him ill.
"Frank!" Hugh exclaimed, feeling that the twas right just then, quickly hurrying on the stage while snapping at Frank, "What did you make the magister smell?!" Privacy
