Trillionaire's Slice of Life

And just as Wu Tongda fell silent for a moment, the Lin family head, Lin Youzhi, suddenly raised his hand, his voice calm:

"Two billion!"

Unlike Wu Tongda, Lin Youzhi, as the mastermind behind the Supreme Jewelry Store, was a complete nemesis to Fan's Bafang Kelai Jewelry Store, like fire and water, irreconcilable. One could say that between the Fan family and the Lin family, only one could survive; and the other, would inevitably be eliminated.

Lin Youzhi was clear in his mind that there was no possibility of reconciliation with Fan Zhijian. Since this was the case, he had no reservations, and naturally, he could bid at will!

Two billion hadn't reached the true reserve price of the Heart Jade, but the other side's provocation had thoroughly angered Geng Pan.

This heir of the Ross family didn't even turn his head, simply raising his hand:

"Three billion!"

Geng Pan had already learned from Chu Mo that this piece of Heart Jade was purchased for five billion; even if he offered three billion, he wouldn't be incurring any loss whatsoever.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Youzhi didn't immediately follow suit, instead he fell into silence for a moment.

As Lin Youzhi remained silent, Wu Tongda leaned towards him and whispered:

"This piece of Heart Jade has appeared at an auction two years ago and was eventually sold for 330 million. That is to say, Lin, if you get it for less than 330 million, you won't suffer any loss at all!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Youzhi's eyes narrowed slightly. He glanced at Chu Mo and Fan Zhijian in the front row, then after gritting his teeth slightly, Lin Youzhi once again raised his hand:

"Three hundred and thirty million!"

Lin Youzhi's bid was the lowest possible price for the Heart Jade; even if the other party no longer bid, if he got the Heart Jade for three hundred and thirty million, he would at least not be at a loss.

The auctioneer on stage did not dare to say another word at this moment; the bidding had deviated completely from the script, and he himself didn't know what would happen if he hammered down rashly!

It was at this time that the hall fell into a rare silence. Chu Mo in the front row glanced at the blonde young man beside him and, seeing his indifferent expression with no interest in bidding again, Chu Mo let out a light sigh and then for the first time spoke up:

"Five billion!"

This was Chu Mo's first bid, and in fact, the amount didn't matter to him, because he was the organizer of the auction himself. Even if he offered a hundred billion, it would merely be transferring money from his left pocket to his right, without any waste.

He bid only because the actual value of the Heart Jade was indeed five billion. If he didn't participate, Lin Youzhi would scoop up the Heart Jade for three hundred and thirty million, a huge bargain that Chu Mo was naturally unwilling to allow.

As the indifferent words of Chu Mo fell, the whole hall returned to utter silence.

It was not until then that the tycoons in the hall suddenly remembered that they had Mr. Chu from Modu sitting in the front row.

If there were only Fan Zhijian here, the choice between the fifth family of Modu, the Fan family, and the eight great families of Hua Country, would be a no-brainer; almost one hundred percent would choose to side with the eight great families.

However, if Mr. Chu from Modu was added to the mix, this originally easy question suddenly became worth reconsidering for them.

Though young, Mr. Chu had stirred Modu to its core with his own strength in just half a year.

Not to mention his endorsers with assets worth hundreds of billions, just the investment in the Trillions Club alone was ample reason for everyone to take his power seriously!

Even though the eight great families of Hua Country were powerful, Mr. Chu of Modu was not to be taken lightly, especially with a few guests he had invited, which formed a force that could challenge the eight great families.

Even more frightening was the group of young people in the front row, all of whom had terrifying potential for growth.

Among them were two princes destined to inherit the kingship, while the Jewelry Queen Mina was the third most influential woman in the world.

Princess Mina, with one quarter of royal blood, wielded immense influence throughout Britain.

This included a future heir to the Ross family's inheritance, which might amount to fifty trillion, and the invaluable Mr. Chu. One could say that the few young individuals in the front row now possessed the strength to arm-wrestle with the eight great families.

Under such circumstances, throughout the entire hall, the wealthy magnates who originally sided unequivocally with the eight great families once again became subtly discomposed!

Merely because Mr. Chu offhandedly made a bid, at this moment, the hall once again fell into a hushed silence, where everyone harbored their own thoughts, yet no one dared to challenge with another bid.

The auctioneer on stage, seeing Mr. Chu bid in person, had been worrying about how to conclude, but now didn't need to trouble himself further. He swiftly hammered down the final price with crisp efficiency!

"Five billion, this magical Heart Jade, now belongs to Mr. Chu!"

As the auctioneer's words fell, Mr. Chu suddenly gently gestured towards the display stand, and the quick-witted auctioneer immediately brought over the Heart Jade, then respectfully presented it before Mr. Chu.

Mr. Chu took the top-tier treasure worth five billion from the auctioneer's hands. It was currently winter, and the temperature was rather cool. Yet as his hand touched the Heart Jade, he felt a faint heat emanating from the jade, spreading warmth throughout his body.

At this moment, Mr. Chu couldn't help but be moved. A good thing was definitely a good thing. Although the Heart Jade was expensive, its value made it entirely worth the five billion!

Of course, he had initially prepared the Heart Jade for Geng Pan and had no intention of keeping it for himself.

Mr. Chu glanced at the blond young man beside him, remainig composed. After all that had transpired, Mr. Chu guessed that even if he were to offer the Heart Jade to Geng Pan now, the other party would probably not accept it. Discover hidden stories at My Virtual Library Empire

If that was the case, it was better to follow the blond young man's original wish and give the Heart Jade directly to the three young ladies in the back row!

With this thought in mind, Mr. Chu, holding the Heart Jade, suddenly turned his head. His gaze directly skimmed over the middle position where the heads of the eight great families sat, then fixed on the three young ladies at the very end!

Mr. Chu shook the Heart Jade in his hand and then beckoned to the three girls.

A girl named Xu Shanshan immediately rose up with a face full of surprise and then walked excitedly towards him!

Mr. Chu hesitated slightly. Originally, he had intended to give the Heart Jade to Geng Pan's beloved, a girl named Sun Qiuman.

However, the person who approached was the tall Xu Shanshan, who was also the one who had bid earlier.

Thinking that Sun Qiuman was too shy, which was why she let her best friend come forward, Mr. Chu didn't mind. When the tall girl called Xu Shanshan walked up brimming with excitement, he placed the Heart Jade in her hands.

The instant she received the Heart Jade, the woman before him also seemed to feel that magical surge of warmth, jolting fiercely with eyes full of shock and elation!

Mr. Chu withdrew his hands; the Heart Jade was just one of the exhibits, and there were other items that needed to be auctioned off.

Once Xu Shanshan hastened back, flushed with excitement, the auctioneer on stage took a deep breath before continuing:

"Next, allow us to present the third exhibit, a diamond necklace specifically prepared for Princess Mina.

The Heart of the Deep Sea!

This necklace features a main diamond of a fifty-carat sapphire, surrounded by three hundred and sixty-five exquisite diamonds. The Heart of the Deep Sea was once the most beloved jewel of a queen and had previously set an auction record of six hundred and fifty million. It will now start at a bid of one hundred thousand RMB, Princess Wei'er Mina, please place your bid!"

This time, the auctioneer directly addressed Princess Wei'er Mina, expecting the item to be sold smoothly. However, before Princess Mina could even speak, a clear and melodious female voice suddenly rang out from the center of the exhibition hall!

"Two hundred thousand RMB!"

The moment the voice fell, Mr. Chu suddenly curled his lips into a smirk, and a hint of cold laughter flashed in his eyes!

Miss Lin Ling'er from the Lin family!

She finally couldn't endure the loneliness anymore!
