Kenneth explained it with a straight face.
Boom!
Zoey was beyond stunned.
This is clearly a scam!
After the auction has commenced, they’re suddenly saying that it’s not in the local currency?
I’ve seen swindlers, but never ones that are as shameless as these people.
This is an act of fraudulence!
There’s really no limit to how far Triple Group is willing to go, to get what they want!
Realization dawned upon Zoey once again.
On the contrary, Levi remained unfazed.
He had already guessed that things wouldn’t progress smoothly.
“Not in the local currency? Who said that?” Levi challenged.
“Me, of course! As you know, the organizer has the final say!” Kenneth sneered.
He had promised to assist Horace in acquiring all of these ancient treasures. Hence, he deliberately changed the currency, so as to force Levi into withdrawing.
“Is everyone else aware of that?” Levi continued asking.
“Of course! If you don’t believe me, follow me and I’ll show you!”
When they returned to the auction room, Kenneth asked the crowd of people, “Was everyone aware that tonight’s auction wasn’t in the local currency?”
“Yes, of course! That’s why no one dared to raise the bid! Triple Group’s bid of six hundred million would be two billion after conversion! Who would dare to bid against that?”
“Yeah! Everyone knew about the foreign currency!”
…
These people who claimed to be aware of the currency conversion were all pre-arranged by Triple Group.
Levi also noticed that they had taken away everyone’s auction catalog.
The catalog was given to each person upon entry. It stated all the details regarding tonight’s auction, including the price of each auction item.
Just then, Horace walked over with a smile and queried, “What’s wrong Mr. West?”
“Mr. Waller, I’d appreciate it if you could help me out. Is tonight’s auction in a local or foreign currency?” Kenneth asked.
“Foreign, of course. That’s why I’d given up because 3 billion would be equivalent to 20 billion!”
Horace and Kenneth sang the same tune.
