C198 Not Worth Mentioning at All
"Why do I feel like I'm going against the Marquis?"
"Me too. Weren't these families punishing the Marquis recently?"
"What you said was true!"
Wan Dabao's expression was as ugly as eating shit. Bai Yifei was actually the chairman of the marquis' board of directors, then how foolish was his words just now? At this moment, he could only hope that Bai Yifei would finish the bidding and forget about the bet.
Bai Yifei didn't have time to pay attention to Wan Dabao. He was looking at Hsiao Teng and Hsiao Teng replied with a smile.
Loong Lingling said worriedly, "Chairman, one billion is our budget, but now …"
Bai Yifei lowered his eyes and then raised his card again, "1.1 billion."
Loong Lingling looked at Bai Yifei in surprise.
Liu Xiaoying didn't join them, but she felt that the current situation wasn't optimistic.
Right now, it's already over 1 billion, compared to what Wan Dabao and the others did just now, it's not even worth mentioning.
The host was very excited. One billion was already a reasonable price. If he went higher, the price would overflow!
Of course, to the host, this was something to be excited about. After all, he had a profit share for the higher parts of the profit. If it exceeded 100 million, then it could be imagined just how generous the share was.
"1.1 billion!" 1.1 billion! Is there anyone else willing to increase the price? "
Bai Yifei stared fixedly at the host. He seemed to have killed his way through to the very end. This land, regardless of whether it was beyond the budget or not, must be obtained. Otherwise, the Marquis would face a disaster.
Everyone held their breath.
1.1 billion!
This was not something an ordinary business could afford. Even if there was, it would have included real estate, but the Marquis was different.
This also showed that the Marquis was indeed worthy of being the leading enterprise in Tianbei City.
At this moment, Lau Wuqiong suddenly raised his card, "1.2 billion."
The crowd burst into an uproar.
"Which corporation is this?"
"I don't know. I didn't see him bid!"
"It can't be a representative from any other group, right?"
"…"
Lau Wuqiong had always been overseas and only recently came back, so not many people knew him.
Bai Yifei gritted his teeth. Lau Wuqiong had the support of several other corporations, so he was not afraid of the price, but he couldn't. He was only a Marquis.
Seeing this, Loong Lingling said worriedly, "Chairman, we …"
Zhang Rong, who was sitting on the other side, was also very worried. Suburb South was something that he had to get, but since the price had already reached 1.2 billion, no matter how high it was, he wouldn't be able to earn money by buying it!
"Chairman, why don't we give up?" Zhang Rong came over and said.
Bai Yifei didn't look at Zhang Rong and raised his card again, "1.4 billion."
This plot of land was indeed valuable, but in the end, it was not a priceless treasure. A billion was considered acceptable, but now that it was worth 1.4 billion, it exceeded the value of the entire plot of land.
No matter who it was, they wouldn't be able to earn much with this piece of land.
Logically speaking, no one should be bidding anymore, but they refused to do so.
Lau Wuqiong turned around and looked at Bai Yifei.
Bai Yifei looked back at Lau Wuqiong with a calm expression.
The two of them silently clashed, but the others didn't know anything.
At this moment, Lau Wuqiong raised his card again, "1.5 billion!"
"Oh my god!"
"1.5 billion!"
"Are you crazy?"
Everyone looked at Lau Wuqiong.
Many people didn't know who he was and didn't know his identity. But he actually offered 1.5 billion to bid with the Marquis for it. This caused others to have to admire his courage and confidence.
How rich must he be to be able to take out 1.5 billion without even batting an eye!
The host was even more excited, "1.5 billion!" 1.5 billion! Tonight's highest price, was there anyone willing to increase it? Is there anyone else willing to increase the price? "
Bai Yifei's expression did not look good.
Zhang Rong was afraid that Bai Yifei would bid again, so he quickly said: "Chairman, it's really not worthwhile, we will compensate you!"
Although he knew the importance of Suburb South to a Marquis, if he were to continue like this, he would only lose more than he could earn.
Liu Xiaoying didn't understand and didn't interrupt them.
After bidding, Lau Wuqiong challenged Bai Yifei proudly.
Bai Yifei was silent, as if he was considering whether he should bid or not.
At this moment, Lau Wuqiong said two words to Bai Yifei, "The antidote."
Bai Yifei was shocked. He understood Lau Wuqiong's intention. As long as Bai Yifei stopped bidding, Lau Wuqiong could give Bai Yifei the antidote.
Lau Wuqiong smiled, "Let's see how you choose then."
Even though the two of them were seated far away from each other, they could tell what each other's mouths were and what the other was talking about.
Bai Yifei clenched his fist.
Without Suburb South and the other four lands, the Marquis' Blue Ports is just like a game of chess, no matter what, he won't be able to live!
However, if he were to obtain the Suburb South, the Marquis might still be alive, but that would be at the cost of Chen Hao's life.
Of course, Liu Xiaoying could cure the poison, but it was just a bit troublesome.
Lau Wuqiong knew that Liu Xiaoying was working for Bai Yifei, but he didn't think that Liu Xiaoying could cure his poison, so he directly used the antidote on Bai Yifei to force him to give up.
At the same time, he wanted to let Chen Hao see clearly whether what he said that night was worth it or not.
At the moment, Lau Wuqiong was doing video recording with Chen Hao. Chen Hao could clearly see the scene here.1
Didn't he feel that Bai Yifei valued friendship and treated him as a brother?
Didn't he rather die than do anything that would let Bai Yifei down?
Fine, he'll let him see it for himself. For his own benefit, Bai Yifei doesn't care about the life of a small figure like Chen Hao!
Let him know how wrong he was!
On the other side of the video, Chen Hao's expression was solemn.
He knew how important Suburb South was to Bai Yifei, so he didn't think that Bai Yifei would give up on the idea of using it for his antidote. What's more, Bai Yifei had already called people to detoxify the poison, it was only a matter of time.
Chen Hao just watched the video without saying a word.
At the auction, when the auctioneer saw that no one was bidding anymore, he picked up the hammer and said excitedly: "Looks like no one is going to increase the bid."
"1.5 billion going once!"
"1.5 billion times!"
"1.53 billion..."
"1.6 billion!"
"1.6 billion!" "1.6 billion!" The host was so excited that his throat felt like it was going to break.
Everyone was shocked as they looked over.
The bidder was a woman wearing a red dress with a buttocks. Even though she was sitting in the crowd, she looked as lofty as a queen.
