Chapter 1006: Chapter 779: Target Acquired… The Wood God’s Friendship!
Upon hearing these words, the atmosphere inside seamless transitioned into a continuation.
Yuexi clenched her palm, yet still sat elegantly.
Mu Fan lowered the brim of his hat, his gaze not only skimming Kim’s face but widening to encompass the entire room.
The Star Broa Beast’s tooth… He must have it!
As White Hair set down his teacup, he immediately raised the first bid for this auction item.
He knew that this would be the most thrilling bidding auction he had ever experienced.
“Buyer number 29 bids 35 million.”
After the first bid, scattered bids began to ring out, but White Hair laid down his placard and smiled, remaining silent.
Illusion and deception, trickery and exploitation, these are the essence of business.
Kim noticed this and sneered, “Indeed, just fishing, these despicable people from the Yin Family.”
The strange tone made Kim’s words appear unexpectedly formal, as if a student reciting a textbook.
Spittoon Face’s two antennae quietly turned to stare at Kim for a moment.
“What are you looking at? This is standard Federation pronunciation,” Kim said discontentedly.
[Just wanted to ask how you learned it, really thoughtless…]
Qiu Huaite grumbled inwardly, not daring to speak directly.
This pile of auction items really had poor presentation, and were too niche, resulting in fewer bidders compared to earlier items.
Yuexi’s palm began to sweat quietly, yet saw White Hair still appearing calmly composed.
Mu Fan continued with his calm Disguiser look, while whether Fatty was truly calm or just scared witless was hard to discern.
In any case, the students from Ding Chuan weren’t ordinary!
“50 million.”
“75 million.”
…
“110 million.”
This price was close to 400% of the starting price, coming from a rare Hinchlo merchant group.
Clearly, they just wanted to acquire this as a rare collectible for resale.
White Hair, besides being a price initiator, made no other moves.
Kim and the Gu Clan leader’s patience was almost exhausted.
“Buyer number 55, 110 million bid, countdown three…”
“115 million.”
White Hair suddenly raised his placard, then quickly turned and smiled at Kim when the auctioneer’s voice paused.
“How much funds do we have left?” Spittoon Face asked cautiously.
“680 million credit points.”
“Mr. Kim, please be careful,” Spittoon Face said with a serious face.
“Don’t worry, I won’t be fooled again!” Kim said sinisterly.
On the other side, the Gu Clan leader also pondered, calculating how many times White Hair had bid, determined not to be caught in the traps of these sly Federation people.
The number 55 caravan increased their bid by 5 million again, and White Hair chuckled, raising once more.
The opponent decisively gave up.
The bid officially reached 400%, already high risk, so they gave up.
“Congratulations, buyer number 29 obtained the 22nd auction item, from a great Explorer’s collection.”
Yuexi excitedly turned her head to White Hair, “Is that it?”
“Mm-hmm, does the price meet your expectations?” White Hair smiled, secretly wiping a sweat, having outperformed himself for Mu Fan.
“Of course! This is way below our expectations…” The future Duchess looked at the burly man, murmuring.
Then her flawless eyes turned to White Hair, sincerely expressing gratitude.
She then beautifully yet excitedly turned to Mu Fan, “It’s really Yuexi’s honor to know you all.”
Mu Fan removed his light brown sunglasses, earnestly saying, “It’s my honor!”
“Uh… How much for that tooth?”
Talking about the crucial number, Mu Fan immediately became nervous.
This number would determine whether he would need to borrow money from White Hair and Fatty.
Yuexi’s bright eyes watched Mu Fan, then she covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, happily asking, “So how much do you have?”
“7.16 million Star Coins… Uh, converting to credit points… about 2 million,”
Mu Fan finished, his awkward gaze turning to White Hair and them.
Then his two companions winked at him, indicating no problem, finally letting Mu Fan relax a bit.
Six items totaled 125 million credit points, equating to each pricing at about 20 million.
Mu Fan only had one tenth of 20 million, truly pitiable.
But Yuexi glanced at the equally excited Daisendari, then at the tense Mu Fan, a hint of cunning flashing in her lively eyes.
“Then…”
Mu Fan and the others inevitably craned their necks.
“200 million.”
“Huh?” Mu Fan froze.
He even felt he had heard incorrectly.
This price for him was practically a gift…
200 million wasn’t even enough for a rounding error.
“That’s the current bid, if you can help me get the second item, then…”
Yuexi’s milky white fingers played with a strand of golden hair, seemingly hesitating.
Her delicate fluffy pointed ears mischievously peeked out from her hair ends.
The beautiful girl saw Mu Fan’s expectant expression like a silly goose, and suddenly beamed.
“Then it’s yours as a gift!”
The wood heart of the Sha Posuo Tree, in Yuexi and Daisendari’s prior plans, had a starting price of at least 500 million, with the upper limit being going through her entire wealth.
Yet now, it was acquired at only one fifth of the price.
The remaining money would likely save plenty of time for future political groundwork.
Thus, the girl was appreciative without delay, how could she haggle over pennies with Mu Fan.
The Wood God Clan’s generations of sincerity and kindness were unmistakably demonstrated in this moment.
The pure and intelligent Wood God Clan believes you’re a good person, then you’re a good person, you’re a friend of the Wood God Clan, then friends should be treated wholeheartedly.
This is the future Duchess with a simple yet straightforward mindset.
“… Thank you.”
Mu Fan saw his reflection clearly in the girl’s clear and flawless eyes.
He suddenly felt incredibly fortunate.
Milky white fingers waved, the girl’s ethereal voice softly echoed, “There’s no need for politeness between friends.”
This time, Daisendari unusually didn’t object.
These three won their friendship.
“So that gives us an extra bid chance, what’s the Princess’s second target?” Black’s brain instantly tallied all the bidding counts from the forces up until now and asked solemnly.
“The mask, the Giant Divine Tree Mask, please be sure to obtain it.” Yuexi’s voice carried a hint of plea.
After hearing this, Black understood.
Mu Fan and Black exchanged a look, simultaneously nodding.
“We’ll go all out.”
And Mu Fan leaned back on the sofa, as his teeth clicked, Black’s voice also quietly slipped through.
“This girl successfully won Lord Black’s friendship, she already has the qualification to serve as the master’s bloodline successor, God’s eminence will descend once more here.”
Upon hearing this blatant, shameless statement, Mu Fan felt like vomiting blood in his heart, but could only maintain a composed facade.
“The 23rd auction item, Giant Divine Tree Mask.”
Yet reality never unfolds as scripted!
Just as Black prepared to use the extra bid chance in disguise.
Reality mercilessly disrupted all his plans.
The second target unexpectedly followed immediately.
“What now?”
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
“Wing it.”
Black’s momentum surged.
And Mu Fan’s vision began frantically refreshing all data.
