at the same time.
In the private room next to Lu Yuan's, a young man who looked to be just over thirty years old had a furrowed brow.
"Why is another guy jumping out and trying to steal my Thunder Beast?"
"Young master, don't be angry. Anyway, this guy definitely can't beat you!" the woman sitting next to the young man said reassuringly, her tone tinged with flattery.
The young man seemed to enjoy being fawned over and immediately laughed.
"Of course! My dad is the president of Nantian Group. Apart from Chu Zhaocai, our Duan family is the richest!"
Upon hearing this, the woman leaned even closer to the man, almost lying on top of him.
The man chuckled and pinched her hard twice.
...
After hearing that the other party had directly increased the price by 100 million, Lu Yuan was a little unsure.
Logically speaking, the Thunder Beast is worth at most around one billion.
He was willing to bid 1.4 billion to study the secrets of the jade pendant, but after he made his bid, the other party raised the price by 100 million without hesitation.
This made him wonder if the other party knew some other secrets.
If that's the case, he'll have to find a way to find out who the other person is.
Lu Yuan was silent for a moment, then pressed two buttons on the tablet.
"Oh my~ VIP number 38 has bid two billion!"
Wei Lulu's excited voice resounded throughout the venue, rousing everyone else present to excitement.
The main problem is that I've never seen two companies drive the auction price up to two billion just to compete for a pet cub!
Lu Yuan remained indifferent.
He was indeed shocked by the generosity of the bigwigs, but that doesn't mean he was short of money.
on the contrary.
He had prepared 7 billion yuan specifically for this business exchange meeting, but 2 billion yuan was just a drop in the bucket for him.
If he could uncover the secrets contained within the jade pendant, it would be worthwhile for him.
Just after the bidding announcement came from downstairs, Lu Yuan heard the sound of porcelain shattering next door, as well as a woman's cries, and couldn't help but frown.
Why is the guy in the next private room acting up all of a sudden?
Suddenly.
As if he had just thought of something, Lu Yuan quickly moved closer to the wall and pressed his ear against it.
The man's shouts came over, but because the soundproofing of the private room was so good, Lu Yuan couldn't hear anything at all. He could only hear some intermittent characters, but they were definitely related to the Thunder Beast.
"It seems the kid in the next private room is number 37, who was bidding against me."
Lu Yuan pinched his chin and suddenly curled the corners of his mouth.
Just then, the noise from next door gradually subsided, and Wei Lulu's excited bidding voice came from the direction of the exhibition booth downstairs again.
"VIP number 37 has actually offered 2.1 billion! It seems that guest number 37 is not willing to give up our Thunder Beast King!"
"Compared to the bold move of customer number 38, who directly increased the price by 500 million, customer number 37's move seems somewhat weak!"
Wei Lulu truly lives up to her reputation as the auctioneer of the Treasure City Hualou.
These two short sentences immediately escalated the tension between the two sides.
Before Lu Yuan could even make a bid, the other party actually made another bid, raising the price of the Thunder Beast to 2.5 billion!
"My God! Guest number 37 has actually added another 400 million! The price of the Thunder Beast King has now reached 2.5 billion. I wonder how guest number 38 will respond?"
Hearing Wei Lulu's excited tone, Lu Yuan's lips twitched slightly.
Good heavens!
Holy crap, what the hell!
With Wei Lulu's eloquence and ability to create a lively atmosphere, it's a real shame she's not a commentator!
Despite his complaints, Lu Yuan didn't hesitate to operate the tablet.
"VIP No. 38 has bid another 2.6 billion! And only increased the bid by 100 million. Is VIP No. 38's financial resources nearing their limit?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the other party made another offer.
Clearly, Wei Lulu's words had an effect. The other party seemed to really think that the price had reached Lu Yuan's limit, so as if they wanted to outbid Lu Yuan, they deliberately only increased the price by 200 million.
The price of the Thunder Beast has reached 2.8 billion.
However.
Before Wei Lulu could even make a bid, Lu Yuan offered 3 billion.
This move stunned everyone present, even Wei Lulu's eyes widened.
But being a top-notch auctioneer, she quickly composed herself and spoke with great excitement.
"Guest number 38 has added another 3 billion!"
The scene erupted in uproar.
Many people even subtly glanced towards the private rooms on the second floor, wanting to see which sucker, or rather, which big shot, was so generous.
Meanwhile, the young man sitting in the next private room to Lu Yuan, namely Duan Yuyang (number 37), had a gloomy expression.
"Damn it! Who on earth is trying to steal my Thunder Beast?"
Duan Yuyang slammed his hand on the table.
The woman sitting next to him huddled in the corner of the sofa in terror, not daring to make a sound.
Everyone in the industry knows that Duan Yuyang has the most fiery temper.
If you offend him, you'd better not think things will turn out well!
Although she didn't know who was fighting Duan Yuyang for the Thunder Beast, she knew that the other person was definitely in big trouble.
Duan Yuyang stared intently at the Thunder Beast on the display stand, his eyes bloodshot.
He has had his lightning-type beast-taming talent awakened for more than eight years, but his level has remained stuck at the seventh level of the Profound Truth Realm.
He's tried countless miracle cures, but for some reason, none of them have any effect!
He had originally planned to bid on some high-level lightning-type demon beast pills at today's auction, but unexpectedly, instead of finding any pills, he stumbled upon a Thunder Beast King!
Just then, my female companion said something that sounded like a joke.
"Young Master Duan, if you had contracted this Thunderous Beast King as your tamed beast, your level would have increased by leaps and bounds!"
What was said without malice may have been taken to heart by the listener.
Duan Yuyang seemed to instantly find a reason why he couldn't level up.
So they decided that they had to get their hands on this Thunder Beast King no matter what!
As for the beast he has now contracted with?
He'll let the Thunder Beast devour it first, making the last bit of value out of it, and then he can form a contract with the Thunder Beast.
Although this method will reduce his strength, he will be able to catch up with his level quickly after he contracts with the Thunder Beast King, and may even be able to increase it even more than before.
But he didn't expect that.
Just when it seemed like the Thunder Beast King was his, a shrewd opponent suddenly appeared and decided to oppose him!
He didn't want to be outshone by his female companion, and with Wei Lulu's provocation, he became increasingly carried away, raising the price higher and higher.
only.
He thought he had the victory in his grasp, but he didn't expect the other party to offer three billion!
Such an outrageous price has completely exceeded the limit of what he can afford.
The thought that he, the young master of the prestigious Nantian Group, had lost the bidding filled Duan Yuyang with rage, and he wished he could immediately drag the other party out and tear him to pieces!
Thinking of this, Duan Yuyang gritted his teeth fiercely.
"Don't let me find out who dares to take this from me, or I'll kill them!"
