"55 million!"
"58 million!"
"60 million!"
"63 million!"
" 65 million!"
As soon as the host finished speaking, people in the room started bidding in an intense manner, and the price also rose rapidly.
However, when the price rose to 80 million yuan, the speed slowed down, and there were fewer people who were still bidding. After all, only a few people could afford that price, and only a few big bosses were left who could continue with the auction.
Right then, Old Mr. Tu, who had been silent all this while, finally raised his card. When he started to speak, he showed utmost confidence and he raised the price by ten million yuan in one go. "90 million!"he said.
Hearing this, everyone was shocked, and their jaws dropped. They sighed in their hearts. The Buddhist treasure would probably belong
to Old Mr. Tu this time.
In that instant, Shawn Liang smiled and raised his card,saying, "100 million!"
This time, everyone was in an uproar. Another rich person had added 10 million yuan. This type of competition stirred up the excitement of the crowd.
Old Mr. Tu glanced at Shawn and frowned. Yet, he raised his card once again. "105 million!"he said.
Since he only had 20 million capital remaining, the speed of the price increment had also slowed down.
Shawn then raised his card again, saying, "115 million! Mr. Tu, why the slow price increment? Don't you have enough money? Haha!"
Old Mr. Tu looked serious and felt that things were getting complicated. He had thought that the 120 million yuan was definitely sufficient, yet he did not expect Shawn to be competing so closely with him.
Old Mr. Tu started to panic. He didn't know how much money Shawn had. He also wasn't sure if Shawn wanted to compete with him for this Buddhist treasure, or if he just wanted to victimize him by raising the price.
After hesitating for a while, Old Mr. Tu was determined and he finally set his eyes on the item. He said, "120 million ."
He was going all- in with his funds. At the same time, he was using this momentum to scare Shawn, indicating to him that he should not do anything ridiculous.
Right then, Shawn heard the bid of 120 million. He was stunned and was frightened by Old Mr. Tu's determination.
Just as Old Mr. Tu was feeling pleased, Shawn suddenly smirked and gazed at Old Mr. Tu. He shook his head and said, "Old Mr. Tu, it turns out that 120 million yuan is all of your capital! With such a small sum of money, how can you compete with me for the Buddhist treasure?"
While speaking, Shawn raised his card again and said, "130 million."
Old Mr. Tu looked unhappy. He did not expect Shawn to actually know about his budget. He looked even more serious. With greater determination, Old Mr. Tu raised his card and said, "135 million!"
He had spent 15 million yuan over his budget, and this would have been the maximum amount that Old Mr. Tu could afford.
However, Shawn was obviously well prepared. He raised the price again and said, "140 million yuan!"
This time, Old Mr. Tu started shivering. He sat down with disappointment, shook his head gently, and his arms began to tremble.
Shawn, with a victorious smile on his face, laughed and said, "Mr. Tu, why don't you continue with the bidding? Well then, I shall take this Buddhist treasure. If you want to see it in the future, you can come to my house to see it! I am not that stingy, and I will definitely show it to you."
