"Ten million!"
After remaining silent most of the time, Humphrey's bidding specialist finally received instructions from the boss and frantically waved the number plate in his hand and shouted out the price.
The auctioneer smiled and said, "Good, No. 78 bid 10 million dollars, does anyone else want to bid? This is the most superb sunny green old-pit jade pendant."
The corner of Humphrey's mouth hooked up a smile, thinking that he could shock the whole audience by the offer of 10 million dollars.
Maximilian leisurely looked at the auctioneer on the screen, opened the intercom, and said, "Twenty million."
"Okay, boss."
Maximilian's exclusive auctioneer received the order and raised the number plate in his hand high, "Twenty million dollars."
Some rich second generations who were preparing to make a quotation took a sigh of relief when they heard the price of 20 million on the screen. They simply stopped participating.
Humphrey frowned, thinking this time he must have met a strong enemy, and it might be necessary to pay a high price at the end.
However, thinking that he had already prepared sixty million in cash, Humphrey felt confident enough to win the pendant.
"Bid twenty-two million." Humphrey said in a deep voice.
Humphrey couldn't stand to add ten million each time either, so he changed his strategy and tried to test the opponent's situation first.
After the exclusive auctioneer helped to offer, the auctioneer said in a loud voice, "No. 78 has bid for the second time, it seems that he is very favorable to this treasure, is there any friend willing to bid for this beautiful jade?"
"Thirty million dollars!" Maximilian's exclusive auctioneer raised his number plate and shouted.
"Oh, No. 118 bid thirty million dollars, I want to praise the courage of No. 118 buyer."
The auctioneer shouted excitedly.
If the auction succeeded, the auctioneer would receive a corresponding commission based on the final amount, so naturally, he looked forward to the higher bidder.
A gloomy look appeared on Humphrey's face as he said in a hateful voice, "Damned No. 118, who the hell is that? How dare you go against me?"
After venting his anger, Humphrey picked up the intercom with red eyes and offered, "Forty million, forty million, I'll see if he still follows!"
The exclusive auctioneer stood up and waved his number plate and shouted, "Forty million!"
"Oh my God, Mr. 78 is a real amazing! The auction price is now forty million! Is there anyone else bidding? If no one bids, then this treasure will belong to No. 78."
"Fifty million." The No.118 Plate that representing Maximilian was raised again.
"It seems that our No. 118 and No. 78 are looking at the same item, who will get this top jade pendant? We need to wait and see!" The auctioneer said passionately.
Humphrey wanted to kill No.118 buyer. If he knew who the person was, Humphrey would have stabbed him to death with a knife!
"Damn it, what a bastard, who is raising the price?"
Humphrey slapped the table twice in anger and roared with his communicator, "Six! Sixty million! Shout it out with your largest voice!"
Sixty million was the upper limit of Humphrey's funds. According to Humphrey's previous consultation, many jewelry experts had estimated jade pendant’s price to be around fifty million dollars.
