“I, your daddy, bid one hundred million!”
Lorenzo’s mighty and dominant voice swept through the auction house, like a real storm arriving, causing everyone to instinctively pause their breathing and reveal looks of shock.
One hundred million!
That is one hundred million!
If converted into paper bills, it would be a pile as big as a mountain, one hundred million!
The vast majority of people here have never even seen what one hundred million looks like, they know that in the lower district of Bairland, the most common things are rats in the sewers, but even if all the rats were added together, there probably wouldn’t be one hundred million.
Even Fairy Miss was stunned at this moment.
She certainly hoped that the bid could be higher, even higher.
But she didn’t expect Lorenzo to directly bid one hundred million!
She has presided over countless auctions, but never has any item broken the one hundred million mark.
But now, this record has been broken!
Fairy Miss was excitedly trembling all over, but her beautiful eyes weren’t focused on Lorenzo who had just shouted out one hundred million, instead they were tightly fixed on the mysterious Number Eighty-Eight private room.
Because she knew that Lorenzo’s ability to bid one hundred million wasn’t solely due to her as the auctioneer’s ability to stimulate the crowd, but entirely because of Number Eighty-Eight!
When the note saying “the auction continues” was passed up from below earlier, she had already foreseen that this person wouldn’t be simple, so she was also looking forward to whether or not Number Eighty-Eight would continue to raise the bid.
Not only her, but at this moment, all the eyes in the entire auction house were focused on Number Eighty-Eight’s private room, waiting for his next bid.
“Surprisingly, you directly bid one hundred million, huh?”
But after a long silence, that leisurely voice finally sounded again, tinged with a trace of disappointment and regret, sighing:
“I really can’t match one hundred million, you win, Mr. Lorenzo, Dragon’s Blood belongs to you.”
“Wow——”
The crowd couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement.
Number Eighty-Eight backed down!
Which means, the competition surrounding the Dragon’s Blood ultimately ended with the winner being Number One, Lorenzo of the Scarlet Fire Gang!
“Indeed worthy of Lorenzo, this kind of dominance is truly awe-inspiring.”
“To be able to casually take out one hundred million in cash, the power of the Scarlet Fire Gang is not to be underestimated.”
“That mysterious Number Eighty-Eight, eventually couldn’t match up, huh?”
“Is it over here?”
Fairy Miss also shook her head regretfully, but soon her face was adorned with a charming smile that left everyone entranced, raising the auctioneer’s hammer in her hand.
“I announce that Dragon’s Blood will be sold to the guest in Room One for one hundred million!”
…
“Hahahaha, dare to mess with me? Little guy, dare to mess with me?”
In Room One, after the dust had settled and basking in the audience’s astonished gazes, Lorenzo could not help but burst out laughing with his hands on his waist.
Although blocked by the one-way tinted glass, unable to see inside the room, he could already imagine the wretched look of the cursed Number Eighty-Eight being intimidated by his kingly aura.
Dare to mess with me, I have one hundred million, do you?
Do you have the balls to…
Isn’t Dragon’s Blood still mine?
Aren’t you mad?
Aren’t you mad?
To be humiliated by me in front of so many people with one hundred million, aren’t you mad?
“Truly worthy of Mr. Lorenzo.”
But just as Lorenzo was excited beyond control, that Number Eighty-Eight actually spoke again, his tone full of admiration:
“You actually directly bid one hundred million, it seems that the more than fifty million yuan I brought is still far from enough.”
Hah?
Lorenzo’s laughing expression froze instantly.
The astonished gazes of the crowd also changed.
Even Fairy Miss, who was just thinking of saying some complimentary words about Lorenzo, nearly bit her tongue upon hearing this.
What did he say?
How much money did he bring?
More than fifty million?
That isn’t…
“Alas, I was just trying, but now I see, I was too naive. Compared to people like Mr. Lorenzo who can casually take out one hundred million, someone like me who can only scrape together more than fifty million is not worth mentioning at all.
This world truly is endless, with mountains beyond mountains and skies beyond skies.”
Number Eighty-Eight sincerely said: “Thank you, Mr. Lorenzo, for teaching me this lesson.”
Thank for what?
Thank for being the biggest sucker?
“…”
At this moment, the entire auction house was silent.
But everything, in this silence, began to change.
The crowd felt that this story was as captivating as a novel, and when they looked at Room One, they saw it as the tragic female role in a novel who had been cheated out of money and love, naturally revealing sincere pity.
Although you looked very handsome when you casually threw down one hundred million, but when you turn around and see that you’re down fifty million, you look very embarrassed!
“You mother…!”
In the room, Lorenzo suddenly picked up the couch beneath him with one hand and smashed it hard against the glass in front of him.
The glass shattered immediately, and the strange and pitying glances that came through the broken glass only made him angrier.
At this moment, how could he not realize that he had been thoroughly played!
That Number Eighty-Eight had no intention of bidding for the Dragon’s Blood at all!
He was just here to piss me off!
“Motherfucker, I will kill you!”
He glared at Number Eighty-Eight’s room with rage-filled eyes, wishing he could rush over and chop him up into minced meat!
He had never experienced such humiliation in his entire life!
“Can’t do it, boss, we can’t make a move here!”
Afraid that Lorenzo would be blinded by anger and do something reckless, a confidant quickly moved forward to tightly hold his waist to stop him.
“Get off!”
Lorenzo kicked the confidant away with a foot, “I’m not that stupid!”
After all, this is the territory of the big boss behind the black market, he’s not dumb enough to break the rules here.
Besides…
Lorenzo looked down at the regular seats.
Although subtle, he still keenly noticed from the pitying or gloating eyes a sincere greed.
“These wild dogs, daring to have the audacity to covet my things!”
Lorenzo took a deep breath and quickly suppressed all his anger.
To have climbed to his current position in the chaotic Lower District, he relied on more than just brutality.
Someone who doesn’t know their priorities wouldn’t last long in a place like that.
“The revenge will come later, first send the Dragon’s Blood back.”
He walked out of the private room decisively, preparing to quickly exchange the goods and leave before the guys in the hall realized what had happened.
Just before stepping into the dark corridor, he suddenly turned his head to look deep into the corridor.
That closed room which irritated his teeth had no movement at all.
“Just wait for me, this matter is not over.”
A cold glint flashed in Lorenzo’s eyes, and then he turned around:
“Leave two people outside to watch, the rest, let’s go.”
…
…
“Wow, so mad?”
When the couch was directly thrown out from the room, Mu’en was also a little startled.
Truly blessed by the heavens, what Mu’en said could also be considered the truth.
He originally thought about stopping around fifty to sixty million, after all, if he accidentally ended up buying the Dragon’s Blood, what would he do? Who would’ve known that the leader of the Scarlet Fire Gang was so easily provoked, raising the bid all the way to one hundred million.
“I thought he’d rush over to chop me right away.”
Seeing that Lorenzo didn’t come for revenge but chose to leave instead, Mu’en couldn’t help but touch his chin in surprise.
Worthy of being the boss of a gang, huh? In this situation, his mind is still crystal clear.
“So what comes next, is the new drama about to unfold?”
After Lorenzo left, many people in the hall quickly left as well, but judging by their haste, they definitely wouldn’t be attending Lorenzo’s farewell party.
