Chapter 477: Joining forces to break the deadlock
He was a little short, with slightly upturned eyes and a straight nose that made his face look a little cold.
Looking at the scene in front of him, the corners of the man's mouth couldn't help but rise, outlining a smug smile, as if everything was under control.
Not long after, the door of the box opened.
A young man in a black suit and black-framed glasses walked in and whispered in the ear of the man at the main seat, "Master, I've heard everything. The owner of Box 9 is the Chinese American Ming family."
"The person in Box 16 is Chinese, a woman named An. Her husband's family is in the Chinese military. They are both very patriotic and wealthy."
The smile on the man's face deepened when he heard this.
"Yoshi, no matter what, this time we must succeed!"
There was a barely perceptible hint of ruthlessness on the man's face.
"Ridai, keep raising the price."
"Yes, Master."
A woman in a kimono nearby responded and immediately went to carry out the order.
During the bidding process, Ives received a phone call.
"Miss, we have found out who is in room 21. It is the eldest son of the Kuroda family, Kuroda Tanigawa. On paper, he is the heir to the Kuroda family, but in fact, his father, Kuroda Eiji, has an illegitimate son named Kuroda Kimura."
"Kuroda Tanigawa has been fighting with Kuroda Kimura to prove himself. This time he came to the United States to set up this situation, and it was also an opportunity he personally fought for to prove himself."
oh? Sounds like an extremely self-willed person!
If this is true, then today's situation would probably be much easier to resolve.
The auction price of the snake head has been soaring.
An Yunxi and the Ming family did not show any weakness either. They kept bidding and showed a resolute attitude that they were determined to win the bid no matter how much money it cost.
At the same time, Kuroda Tanigawa did not stop raising the price.
At this moment, the only ones participating in this fierce bidding were Box No. 21 where Kuroda was, Box No. 9 where the Ming family was, and Box No. 16 where An Yunxi was.
Soon, the bidding price reached 230 million US dollars.
If he could stop there, he would have succeeded.
Although spending this little money to buy back the snake head was far beyond its value, An Yunxi could accept it.
However, what was unexpected was that at this time Kuroda Tanigawa had already been dazzled by the ever-rising prices. He raised the price to his head and was completely immersed in the pleasure brought by the continuous price increases.
In his opinion, there is a great possibility that he will achieve unprecedented success this time.
It was based on this blind self-confidence that he chose to continue raising the price without hesitation.
However, no matter how high he raised the price, An Yunxi and the Ming family still followed closely and refused to give in.
Faced with this situation, Kuroda Tanigawa not only showed no intention of restraining himself, but became even more crazy.
In the end, he pushed the price up to a staggering $1 billion!
At this time, at An Yunxi's instruction, the Ming family had withdrawn from the bidding.
Therefore, at this time, the only two parties bidding were Kuroda Tanigawa and An Yunxi.
At this critical moment, the entire auction hall fell into a tense and silent atmosphere.
People held their breath and stared at the private room where Kuroda Tanigawa and An Yunxi were, looking forward to the final result of this fierce bidding.
"Miss, do you want to continue bidding?"
After An Yunxi pondered for a moment, she nodded firmly and replied softly, "Continue!"
As An Yunxi raised the price again without hesitation and called out a new high price, she instantly became the focus of everyone's attention.
The price of Box No. 16 was called without any hesitation, which made Kuroda Tanigawa excited.
"Riyo, come on, let's continue!"
The situation at this moment can be said to be tense.
In this way, the two sides went back and forth, neither giving in, the bidding price soared all the way, and in a blink of an eye it had exceeded the 1.9 billion US dollar mark.
Faced with such a high price, An Yunxi always maintained an attitude of being confident and determined to win, as if any amount of money was just a trivial number to her.
Kuroda Tanigawa was getting more and more excited, and at this moment he had somewhat lost his mind. He was completely led by An Yunxi's rhythm.
Just as Kuroda Tanigawa was immersed in the sweet dream that he was about to successfully make a lot of money and raised the price to 2 billion US dollars, An Yunxi suddenly stopped bidding.
“Two billion dollars, is there a higher amount?”
The audience suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to break the silence.
"Two billion dollars at a time. Would Box 16 like to place another order?" The auctioneer looked towards Box 16 expectantly.
However, at this moment, An Yunxi was as motionless as an iceberg, with a faint smile on her face.
“Two billion dollars twice, is it true that no one is willing to bid again?”
The auctioneer raised his voice, trying to arouse more interest.
However, the only response he received was deathly silence.
