Supreme Mars novel Chapter 365

Chapter 365 Vicious Competition
Everyone was silent.
The Cohen Family's badge of the Valenham royalty was obviously more attractive. All previous goods added up to less than one percent of its value.
Because it represented the Cohen Family, one of the nine Valenham royal families, standing at the top of Pompeii.
It had lasted for a hundred years.
The pretty auctioneer held a transparent glass box carefully. A golden badge was in it.
An ancient writing was on the badge-Cohen.
Everyone was looking at the badge with rapid breathing.
Leo's eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at it.
The pretty auctioneer smiled and said, "The young master of Cohen Family from Valenham took it here for sale himself. He found it while he was
sorting through things at his family's ancestral home. Besides, as was analyzed, the badge had a history of 25 years. The family had asked everyone
about it but no one had lost his badge. Presumably it belonged to a deceased member of the Cohen Family so it was sent here for auction.”
“Anyone who owned the badge would be seen as part of the Cohen Family of the the Valenham royalty with a different surname and he/she will be
protected by the Cohen Family.”
Everyone was drooling with envy all of a sudden.
The pretty auctioneer made it clear that anyone who owned the badge would be seen as part of the Cohen Family of the Valenham royalty with a
different surname.
Even a person with a different surname would benefit a lot as long as he became a member of the Valenham royalty. No one wanted to let go of such
an opportunity to be the noodles in soya-bean milk.
Brooke in the box on the second floor was breathing fast and trembling with excitement.
It took three glasses of cold red wine to calm him down.
"Young master, the badge...”
Nadine's eyes were fixed on the Cohen Family badge. It's hard not to associate it with Leo.
Leo gave her a quick look and then Nadine shut her mouth.
When Leo calmed down, his eyes were cold.

Meanwhile, in some private box in the auction hall.
A woman shining like a star in the sky sat elegantly. The light in the box was dim. Her face was blurred in the gloom light but there was no doubt that she, with classical temperament, was the star of the night's auction. Next to her sat a handsome man in a white suit with his upper body hidden in darkness, too.
He chuckled. "So this is a city outside Valenham, which was so crazy for a badge from my family."
His inexplicable pride made her slightly frown. "| am also from a city outside Valenham.”
He smiled, "But you were born in the Valenham royal family and have Valenham royal blood.”
She was silent for quite a while.
She looked down at the figure of a man downstairs and said, "So does someone."
He smiled.
“You mean the live-in son-in-law of the Matthews Family? He is an exception."
“And he's not really part of my Cohen Family," he said with a sneer.
“One day you'll be sorry."
She said very seriously while he didn’t care at all.
“Let’s wait and see. I came to Sallton and Winham in search of my family's ‘lost pearl’. "
"Whatever."
The woman seemed to lose interest in speaking and continued to focus on the auction.
“Please announce the starting price!"
People could hardly wait.
The beautiful auctioneer smiled and said, "The starting price of the Cohen Family's Badge of the Valenham Royalty is 200
million dollars."
Hearing what she said, everyone present shut their mouths.
Obviously, many people were discouraged by such a high price.
Brooke in the private box on the second floor was also astonished. Two hundred million. It also severely scared him.
Caleb smiled weirdly and said, “Well, you don’t have to buy it if you can’t."
“Shut up!"
Brooke shouted crazily with his face flushed.
“T'll buy the badge even if I overdraft my account for ten years!"
It was still silent around the stage. The initial price-two hundred million calmed the excited audience. Many masters had gone
ahead of schedule.
The auctioneer and Mr. Doyle were not worried. The starting price was set high to weed out some families who could not afford
to bid. People who really wanted it would bid for it even if they went bankrupt.
"Two hundred and ten million!"
Finally, one master could not help but shout out the offer in a trembling voice.
“Two hundred and twenty million!"
“Two hundred and thirty million!"
Some people started and were followed by others very soon. But the price increased quite slowly.
This was the limit. It would be such a big amount of liquidity that it's not hard to imagine that many families at Hopkins would
have a retrogression of many years after tonight.
"Three hundred million!"
Someone made an offer loudly.
Nadine sighed secretly. The young master still cared about his background.
Many people stared at Leo with a wry smile, no longer bidding.
Leo had shown that he was rich enough to compete, compared with others who were outwardly strong and inwardly weak.
No one else made a voice.
“Anyone else?”
As no one answered, the beautiful auctioneer began to count down.
"Three hundred million once..."
"Three hundred million twice..."
“Three hundred and thirty million..."
"Five hundred million!"
The auctioneer had raised the little golden hammer and was about to strike it when a low voice stopped her.
Everyone looked around to find who made the offer. $300 million was already a high price, let alone $500 million.
Leo looked over and then he saw Brooke. He understood all at once.
“He's courting death.
Coldness appeared in Nadine's eyes. The badge could be a relic to uncover the young master's past. However, Brooke wanted
to meddle in it.
"Don't."
Leo stopped Nadine. He took a quick look at Brooke and said, "Six hundred million."
Everyone was astonished!
This badge went up to $600 million!
However, that was not the final price.
Brooke raised the price without hesitation.
"Seven hundred million!"
It was silent again. People started to realize that the auction had become a vicious competition.
“Ha ha ha, funny, funny..."
The man in a white suit in a private box guffawed. "A redundant badge of the Cohen Family has been bid up to 700 million
dollars. What a big joke!"
"Go ahead. Let me see how much those two morons will pay for it."
Although HY Business Association would take all profits from the auction items and he did not benefit from it at all...
He sold the badge to the Business Association for $150 million. Now he bursted his sides with laughters as if he was watching a
funny comedy when he saw so many people went crazy for it.
The elegant woman beside him looked at him coldly throughout and said nothing.
