Bai Huo glanced at Chang Fa on the stage, and with just a look, Chang Fa knew what he wanted to do.
After all, the two of them often worked together.
If worst cos to worst, they’ll just have to get rid of Xiao Chen today.
These items can’t be taken away by Xiao Chen.
Otherwise, they’d be dood.
...
"Congratulations, Mr. Xiao, all twelve auction items are yours!"
Chang Fa said insincerely, "By the way, please settle the paynt backstage!"
Xiao Chen smiled and put down the phone he had been holding.
"Did you win the bid?"
Jiang ng asked, puzzled.
"Just in case, you know there are so shaless people in this world!"
Xiao Chen replied with a smile.
Jiang ng nodded in agreent.
Ever since she t soone like Jin Xunbei, she really opened her eyes.
There truly are such shaless people in the world.
It’s quite eye-opening, indeed.
Jiang ng and Xiao Chen headed backstage.
Chang Fa said with a smile, "Congratulations again, Mr. Xiao. These twelve treasures are yours, totaling one hundred million Gemstone Currency. Please make the paynt!"
"How much?"
Xiao Chen was imdiately stunned, "I must have heard wrong. It was clearly ten million, how did it beco one hundred million?"
"You might not know, martial artists’ auctions are different from regular auctions.
When we say one, it actually ans ten.
This is the jargon.
It’s possible you didn’t get that.
So, ten million Gemstone Currency actually ans one hundred million.
And I haven’t even ntioned the handling fee yet."
Chang Fa continued smiling.
Boom!
Jiang ng was completely taken aback.
It felt like she had been struck by lightning.
This was clearly a scam.
Not clarifying beforehand and claiming one ans ten after the items were won? Ten million turning into one hundred million?
She had heard of similar things when buying and selling antiques.
For example, one ans ten.
Or it could an ten thousand.
Ten ans one hundred thousand.
But these things are supposed to be agreed upon in advance.
This is blatantly a scam.
Directly tenfold!
This is definitely fraud.
Jiang ng was clear that this was definitely Xinxing Group’s doing.
Xinxing Group was unwilling to accept failure and certainly didn’t want these treasures to be taken away by Xiao Chen, so they ca up with this despicable tactic.
She felt a deep understanding of the dangers of society, and the darkness and sha of humanity.
Things were never going to be that easy.
She looked at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen seed very calm, as if he had already anticipated this outco.
"Who made the rule that one ans ten?"
Xiao Chen asked calmly.
Chang Fa laughed, "Of course, it’s a rule of our auction house. Here, we make the rules!"
He had to do this.
If he didn’t handle this well, Bai Huo would die, and he wouldn’t fare any better.
Only by making Xiao Chen give up,
could they regain those treasures.
One hundred million Gemstone Currency, likely no one can produce that imdiately right now.
"Are you saying that everyone present knows this rule?"
Xiao Chen continued to ask with a smile.
"Mr. Xiao, of course!"
Chang Fa nodded, saying, "While everyone’s still here, we could verify it if you want!"
They returned to the venue.
Chang Fa asked, "Everyone, today’s auction price, one stands for ten, you all were aware, right?"
"Yes, of course, that’s why we didn’t bid aggressively.
At three million five hundred thousand Gemstone Currency, we gave up. It was too expensive, and we couldn’t afford that much.
With the tenfold rule, that’s over thirty million."
"That’s right, we all knew, wasn’t this rule announced beforehand for this auction?"
...
Most of these people were placed by Xinxing Group, of course they would support Bai Huo.
And those who weren’t part of Xinxing Group, though they found Xinxing Group’s actions despicable,
they didn’t see it necessary to beco enemies with Xinxing Group for this.
They could only feel sorry for Xiao Chen.
Why create such trouble with Xinxing Group for no reason?
"Mr. Chang, what happened? Does he not have the money?"
At this point, Bai Huo walked over with a smile.
"President Bai, we agreed today that one stands for ten, right?"
Chang Fa asked.
"Yes, that’s right, knowing this is why I stopped bidding. Spending one hundred million Gemstone Currency on those treasures wouldn’t be worth it."
Bai Huo smiled at Xiao Chen.
The idea was his in the first place, how could he not be aware?
"Oh, Mr. Xiao didn’t know this, but it’s okay. If you don’t have the money, you can choose to forfeit, especially since everyone’s still here."
Bai Huo said sarcastically.
"Yes indeed, don’t bid recklessly if you can’t afford it. Winning the bid but refusing to pay, isn’t that going too far?"
Chang Fa said coldly.
"Honey, let’s just give up, this is a trap from the start!"
Jiang ng looked at Xiao Chen and said.
Upon hearing this, Bai Huo laughed.
Chang Fa also laughed.
Indeed, this tactic was clever.
It left Xiao Chen speechless with no choice but to suffer in silence.
"Since it’s the rule, then let’s follow it. One hundred million Gemstone Currency, right? No problem, as long as you can swallow it!"
Xiao Chen said with a calm smile.
What!
Upon hearing this, Bai Huo and Chang Fa were both stunned.
One hundred million Gemstone Currency is okay?
They originally intended to say twenty million but thought it wasn’t safe, so they said one hundred million.
They thought Xiao Chen certainly couldn’t afford it.
But no one expected Xiao Chen actually intended to pay.
"What are you standing around for, go make the paynt."
Xiao Chen said with a smile, "But be careful, money obtained unfairly might beco a hot potato!"
Bai Huo and Chang Fa didn’t catch this.
Because they were still in shock.
One hundred million Gemstone Currency!
At the backstage.
Xiao Chen took out the Supre Gem Card from World Unionpay and directly paid one hundred million.
"He actually paid?"
With the money in the account, Chang Fa and Bai Huo were still in a daze.
They felt like everything was a dream.
"Please pack the items for , we’re taking them directly!"
He couldn’t trust anyone else to handle the transportation.
This was sothing he had to do personally.
With the items loaded onto the car.
Xiao Chen smiled at Chang Fa, "These Gemstone Currencies are real, but whether you can actually use them depends on your abilities!"
Chang Fa didn’t quite understand what Xiao Chen ant.
He was still dazed.
Until Xiao Chen and Jiang ng disappeared from the auction house.
They were still in shock.
In the car, Jiang ng asked, "Honey, be honest, did the War God King tell you to bid on these, or was it the big boss of Chenhe Group?"
"Probably both."
Xiao Chen scratched his head and said.
"You’re crazy! Even if they asked you to bid, paying one hundred million Gemstone Currency is clearly a scam. Why did you still pay?
How are you going to explain to the two of them later?"
Jiang ng was really speechless.
Xiao Chen was just an employee, accompanying two tigers could be dangerous if those two big shots got angry, there would be no good outco.
