Seeing that Frank was not greeting him anyway, the old man ignored him and forced a smile. "I'm sure everyone here is aware that I, Travis Dali, have recently made a poor judgment, buying a fake jade fox sculpture that cost me over a billion dollars."
Pausing, he sighed. "That means I have yet to clear my 600 million dollar debt. And to make up for that, I am now bringing out the treasures in my collection. I hope everyone here would be willing to buy them at generous prices—you have my gratitude already."
Hugh was the first to get to his feet, spreading his hands and smiling. "Haha… you're exaggerating, Mr. Dali—everyone knows that you're the dealer with the best eyes in Blooming Junction, and your treasures are most extraordinary. We'll definitely buy what you have at the right price."
"Exactly."
"Your debt will be cleared with no problem!"
The other guests agreed.
"Alright." Travis' hunched back seemed to straighten as he smiled. "Since everyone is so appreciative, let's cut to the chase. Here's my first treasure!"
He waved, and two beautiful women carefully carried out a canvas, slowly spreading it to reveal a masterpiece of a painting.
It was so well-preserved that everyone was gasping in awe, even as Travis stared into the air, reminiscing.
"This is a Rivaldi piece called the Transience, dating back to almost 800 years ago, and one of the gems of my collections. I got it from an auction at Morhen back then for 500 million, and the transaction records are available for review."
Then, his tone changed sharply. "However, as I need money urgently at the moment, I'm selling it for only 400 million. Naturally, it only goes to the highest bidder."
Hearing that, Mr. Richton, the old man beside Hugh, held up a hand and smiled. "A genuine Rivaldi? It certainly costs a fortune… In that case, I will take it for 400 million. Are there any other bidders?"
