Chapter 1004: Chapter 777: I Have Excellent Eyesight
Seeing the bid instantly double as soon as it started between two bidders, although no discussions were heard from other seats, it was inevitable that some curious glances would be exchanged.
“This is a material only our Gu Clan can use. What are these people trying to do?” A middle-aged man with three fang necklaces around his neck frowned and said.
“Sir, bidding here is free, we have no right to interfere.”
With a cold snort, the Gu Clan man raised his bid number in dissatisfaction.
“1.7 billion!”
This scene made Mu Fan, who was listening, feel a bit parched.
Three auction items, each time the bid reaching billions. And this price was settled using Hinchlo Business Alliance’s credit points.
Considering the tripled exchange rate when converted to Federation Star Coins, Mu Fan instantly felt not only poor but the kind where even if he pawned his pants, he probably couldn’t afford half a piece of the merchandise…
So our Mu Fan, while watching Spittoon Face, felt a faint sadness rising.
White Hair’s bid level was always intriguing, consistently hitting the opponent’s psychological price point.
And it kept getting higher.
Ultimately, when the price reached 3.7 billion credit points, the middle-aged man from the Gu Clan cursed and gave up bidding, looking resentfully at the two troublemakers.
Kim’s lips curled into a smile, thinking: [Yin Family’s loser, your tricks are still far from enough.]
He had already decided that no matter the next price, he wouldn’t bid higher.
3.7 billion credit points, even within the Hinchlo Business Alliance, was an exaggerated number, a fortune accumulated over a century by a small family.
But, at that moment, White Hair’s eyes suddenly swept back lightly, revealing a… teasing expression.
Eyes closed, lips puckered slightly…
Mua~
A flying kiss thrown through the air.
Then casually tossing away the bid number.
Quietly observing Kim, at this moment, he suddenly felt extremely nauseous, a feeling called disgust churning infinitely in his mind.
Ugh~
“What’s wrong, dear Kim?” Spittoon Face Qiu Huaite asked with concern.
“Nothing, maybe breakfast didn’t sit well.” Kim took out a white handkerchief, covered his mouth, stifling his friend’s concern.
“Congratulations to buyer number 17 for acquiring this auction item,” the cold auctioneer’s compliment seemed to plunge Kim into an icy abyss.
Rip…
The white silk handkerchief was pierced by Kim’s fingers in one strike.
He had been played.
“Got cheated,” Kim said calmly, a cold gleam flashing in his eyes.
“Our funds…”
“No worries, I’ll deal the item to the Gu Clan; they’ll definitely be interested.”
Poor Kim, unaware that the Gu Clan’s bigwig was watching him with a fierce gaze.
Putting down the array card, White Hair’s gaze swept past the four faces, speaking softly: “One last chance.”
Yuexi had been completely captivated by this superb performance, at this moment feeling that the outstanding students from the Five Great Colleges exceeded her expectations in overall qualities.
Meanwhile, Daisendari looked on coldly, thinking this White Hair wasn’t anything good.
The outside world is treacherous!
The next confrontation should be him finding a flaw in the opponent.
White Hair smiled, but did not relax his vigilance, instead becoming more cautious because the opponent would surely learn the lesson next time.
“The fourth auction item, the warship keel from an Ancient Relic, material… unknown.”
This auction item even made Mu Fan a bit breathless.
Unexpectedly, it was an artifact from Ancient Relics; the auction items were getting more and more remarkable, despite the extremely cold auctioneer, the merchandise kept elevating the atmosphere.
But this time White Hair showed no expression, leisurely sipping water.
Today’s auction comprises 32 items.
It’s still early.
Glancing at White Hair’s vague facial color over there, Kim couldn’t get any useful information, and watched gloomily from his place.
Yet he didn’t know that the three mecha guards surrounding the venue had already faithfully recorded Kim’s expressions.
“The fifth item…”
“The sixth item…”
One by one, auction items began to be taken by those who were enamored by them.
Each force’s chance to bid five times kept the atmosphere intense yet not chaotic.
Occasionally, a scenario of two buyers amicably yielding to each other could be seen, which the auction house noticed without interfering.
This was an auction, but also a high-end salon.
For the New Moon Auction, auction items were always secondary…
“Political resource exchange.”
Yuexi swept her lively beautiful eyes around, whispering, Babon Duchy also needed the exchange, but not now.
The sacrificial ceremony was what she needed to complete the most.
The auction had progressed to the fourteenth item, not only Mu Fan, but even Yuexi’s goal hadn’t appeared.
Yet the group couldn’t show any impatience, who knew what observer might be here.
But as the fifteenth item just appeared, it was a delicate and gigantic engine, with six jet acceleration valves in a three-port engine, class-rated to military ninth generation!
Mu Fan’s eyes slightly moved, yet not because of the auction item.
But because under Black’s surveillance, Kim’s expression showed a slight ripple.
Mu Fan, skilled in the art of hunting, knew well that such a look also appeared in animals’ eyes, and when described with civilized vocabulary, it was quite simple.
That is… desire.
Moreover, Mu Fan sharply noticed the opponent’s little finger quivering.
Just… Mu Fan was a bit puzzled why Kim’s arm also unnecessarily lifted slightly?
This series of actions actually took place in a very short period.
But the attentive White Hair noticed it, he chuckled.
“The opponent is starting.”
As soon as White Hair’s words landed, sure enough, Kim indicated a bid.
“50 million!”
But this time, it seemed there were quite a few forces interested because, after all, an engine is the heart of a mecha. If thoroughly researched, it might very well elevate to nine-and-a-half generation level.
This could instantly arm an S-grade mecha!
When White Hair joined the bid after a few rounds, quoting a price of 1.6 billion, Mu Fan again noticed that Kim’s face had an involuntary lip twitch.
Not right.
But Mu Fan did not stop White Hair’s actions, as the opponent seemed to still pursue some kind of aim.
2.1 billion, 2.4 billion, 2.9 billion, then suddenly breaking the 3 billion mark!
Kim, with his excessively pale face, exposed a smile, even provocatively looking at White Hair.
White Hair frowned slightly, pondering before attempting to bid.
He was ready to tease the opponent twice more, adding 30 million to the bid.
But…
“Stop bidding.” Sitting disguised nearby, Mu Fan suddenly spoke, making the increasingly adept White Hair suddenly look in surprise.
Yuexi’s beautiful eyes curiously glanced, her pointed ears again peeking through her hair.
“They’ve decided to give up.” Mu Fan supplemented, then taking off his sunglasses, glanced at several companions, adding: “I saw it.”
This time Mu Fan’s method left White Hair shocked, not to mention Yuexi and Daisendari, who grew up in the Natural Kingdom.
“Just bluffing.” The man snorted coldly.
“How did you see it?” Yuexi was extremely curious.
“I have good eyesight.” Mu Fan replied, unfazed.
This statement was true; thus, Mu Fan did not blush.
But this sentence in this context probably wasn’t very fitting.
White Hair licked his lips, throwing Mu Fan a stable expression.
Then painfully gesturing to raise the bid number…
