Chapter 853
Yasmin nodded. It seemed that today’s competition for the alchemy furnace would be quite intense. After a while, Mister Bough had already offered a bid of seventy billion.
Mister Marshall obviously did not have that much money anymore. Finally, he looked at Mister Bough and Miss Haley, then said, “Mister Bough, Miss Haley, you’re impressive. When I came out today, I didn’t expect to encounter such a precious auction item. I’ll give it to you.”
“Seventy five billion!”
Seeing that Mister Marshall had finally withdrawn, Haley breathed a sigh of relief and said to him, “Mister Marshall, thank you very much. Haha!”
“Eighty billion!”
However, Mister Bough had no intention of withdrawing at all. He raised the bid once again and raised it to eighty billion.
“Ninety billion!” Haley declared with great momentum.
“Oh my, this is too fierce. It seems that this high-level alchemist has provoked the young master of a top- class family,” the onlookers were already shocked. At this point, the continuous increase of ten billion after ten billion was making some wealthy merchants lose their composure.
After all, spending this much money should not affect the operation of their family’s industries. Although some third-rate aristocratic families probably had total assets of more than 90 billion, they wouldn’t have as much liquid assets available for immediate use.
“A hundred billion!” Mister Bough’s expression turned somewhat unsightly. However, when he thought about the value that the newly arrived high-level alchemist would bring him in the future, he gritted his
teeth and offered a bid of 100 billion.
Seeing the other party’s face finally turning slightly red, Severin knew that the price was reaching a point the other party coud not bear.
“A-hundred-and-ten billion!” Haley clenched her fist and immediately retaliated, raising the price by another ten billion, clearly wanting to overpower the opponent with her momentum.
After all, being able to increase the bid by ten billion at this point showed her determination.
“A-hundred-and-fifteen billion!” Mister Bough’s expression changed. This time, he clearly hesitated for about seven to eight seconds before finally shouting out this price.
“A-hundred-and-twenty billion!” Haley saw that Mister Bough had taken so long to make another bid and felt delighted. She knew that Mister Bough was probably reaching his limit. If she quickly raised the bid by another five billion, it would crush his spirit. He would definitely think that she had even more money.
