Chapter 1055: Ask For Instructions
In the blink of an eye, the bidding price had become 75 million US dollars.
At this moment, the private rooms on the second floor finally took action. The price of the bids rose from the previous one million increments to five million US dollars.
“80 million US dollars!” One of the private rooms made the bid.
80 million US dollars!
It was such a great amount that many people would never imagine in their entire lives!
It was around 500 million RMB!
“85 million”, said the guest in Room 6. Before he could take a breather, the guest in Room 3 followed suit and said,
“90 million.”
With that, the guest in Room 1 who had been quiet all this while followed and said,
“100 million!”
Hiss!
To this point, no one on the first floor placed a bid anymore. It was the game for the guests in the second-floor private rooms now.
In the room, Jiang Tingxu’s heart was beating faster and faster every moment. It was such an adrenaline rush!
“Honey, press now!”
Suddenly, the man ordered.
Jiang Tingxu pressed the button obediently before she came to her senses.
At once, she heard the voice of the auctioneer downstairs.
“The guest in Room 2 asked for 130 million! Would anyone go higher?
“130 million going once!
“130 million going twice!
“130 million going thrice…”
Suddenly, a voice was heard.
“135 million!”
The auctioneer held his breath and said excitedly,
“Room 3 asked for 135 million. Is there anyone else who wants to bid?”
Jiang Tingxu’s hand trembled. No, she could no longer do this.
If he wanted to bid, he should do it himself!
Just as she withdrew her hand, the man grabbed her hand tight. Jiang Tingxu struggled, but she couldn’t break free at all. She was forced to press the button again.
“150 million!”
Jeez, this was a 15 million raise!
“The guests in Room 2 asked for 150 million. 150 million going once, 150 million going twice…”
“160 million!”
Room 3 called out again.
Were they fighting against each other?
They kept raising the price!
Jiang Tingxu felt like her heart stopped beating. She asked the man,
“Do we keep it going?”
The current price had far exceeded the value of the item itself. After all, it was only a small island of 150 square kilometers.
The man smiled and narrowed his eyes.
“Sure, go ahead. The island goes by the name which I think suits you very much.”
Hmm?
“What?”
“It used to be called Jiang Island! However, if you don’t like it, we can change the name after we buy it. We can change it to anything we want!”
As the man finished speaking, Jiang Tingxu felt his hand holding tighter.
“180 million!”
“180 million from Room 2!”
Jiang Tingxu ran out of words. When her thoughts finally came back, the guest in Room 3 raised the price again.
“200 million!”
“300 million!”
F*ck!
At that point, it was none of the others’ business.
It wasn’t that the others could not fork out more than 300 million USD. It was mainly because everyone felt the island wasn’t worth so much. The value of the island wasn’t enough for someone to go all out!
At the moment, the situation in Room 3 was not as everyone imagined.
“We can’t bid anymore. It has exceeded the price that we are allowed to bid!”
“But, they are determined to get that island!”
“The price is getting too high. Make a call and ask for instructions.”
“Okay.”
Room 3 pressed the pause button. The auctioneer received it and said with a smile,
“Five-minute break, everyone!”
