The Legendary Man Chapter 434
A Kind Reminder
Besides me, there’s someone else willing to spend more than a hundred million on the pendant?
The reason why he wanted the pendant was that the dragon pattern was an exact match to the engraving on the Heaven Sword.
Otherwise, he would not have flown all the way from Jazona for an ordinary pendant.
“The guest in Room 0 has made an offer of a hundred million. Is there a bid higher than this?”
Upon hearing the opening bid, the auctioneer decided to proceed. The crowd was suddenly acutely aware that the auction was underway and erupted in a frenzy.
Every single person had their eyes glued to the stage, not daring to believe their ears.
Just a minute ago, they were speculating that only an idiot was going to spend a hundred million to buy the pendant. However, it did not take long for someone to call in an opening bid for a ridiculously priced jade pendant.
“A hundred million going once!”
“A hundred million going twice!”
“A hundred million—”
Just before the auctioneer was about to conclude the transaction, Jonathan’s voice rang out loud and clear from Room 9. “Two hundred million!”
“Two hundred million from the guest in Room 9!”
“Is anyone going to counter this offer?”
The auctioneer seemed to be more enthusiastic the moment Jonathan called out a counter-offer.
Before the guest in Room 0 made his bid, the female auctioneer had been convinced that the pendant was going to be unsold.
Yet little did she expect that the price of the pendant would skyrocket so abruptly.
“I’ll pay three hundred million!” came the guest in Room 0 just barely after the auctioneer finished speaking.
Once again, the crowd erupted in a frenzy.
Nobody had anticipated such an outrageous price for the dragon-patterned jade pendant.
“Four hundred million!”
Jonathan did not lose any momentum. Immediately, he decided to counter-bid.
“Five hundred million!” said the guest in Room 0.
“Six hundred million!”
Jonathan did not hesitate this time. He was dead-set on acquiring the dragon-patterned jade pendant. He did not care if the price reached a billion.
“The guest in Room 9 has offered six hundred million!” This time, it was not just the audience who started to get nervous. The auctioneer was quite concerned as well.
