Found 100 Million In My Rented Apartment

Chapter 1882: Do Me a Favor And Embarrass Him!

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Instantly, a pin drop could be heard.

“Sir!”

The auctioneer was also a little surprised. He confirmed with John Lee. “I’m very sorry, but I hope you can repeat the price you quoted!”

“Five million in Sun Never Sets pounds!”

John Lee repeated with a smile.

“Five million!”

“Number five bids five million!”

After a brief moment of surprise, the auctioneer quickly regained his professionalism. He waved his hands excitedly and shouted to the surrounding elites, “Excuse me, are there any higher bids?!”

“Everyone!”

“Aren’t you guys tempted?!”

All the elites present rolled their eyes.

They frequented major auction houses, so they were very clear about the price of these antiques. Although this jade Buddha had a great background, it was worth at most four million Sun Never Setting pounds or forty million yuan.

Five million! Only a fool would follow!

It was true that they were rich, but they were not stupid!

Moreover, they had to be careful.

John Lee was an extremely unfamiliar face. He had sat in the extremely valuable fifth seat. Before they figured out John Lee’s background, no one present was willing to offend him, even if they wanted the jade Buddha.

Thus, everyone remained silent.

Seeing this, the auctioneer was still unwilling to give up.

“Wow!”

“I’ve just discovered something interesting!”

“The fifth guest seems to be from the Dragon Country. Could it be that this jade Buddha has a secret that our experts haven’t discovered? It seems that the people of the Dragon Country know their own things!”

“Everyone, are there any higher bids?!”

He still refused to give up.

However, the elites present had basically given up. Some of them had even started to discuss in low voices.

“By the way, do any of you know VIP number five?”

“I don’t know him. I’ve never seen him before. However, he must have a powerful background since he was able to get the invitation for the fifth seat. It’s best not to offend him if possible!”

“Such a big move is indeed shocking!”

“Maybe we can get to know him later!”

“That makes sense!”

Hearing the discussions around him, John Lee’s mouth was crooked from smiling.

Things were just as he had expected. As long as he could make a big move in this auction house, it would be enough to attract the attention of these famous people in Fog City.

With such a reputation, wouldn’t it be easy for him to enter the upper-class society of Fog City?

However, John Lee didn’t know that his dream was about to be shattered.

In the VIP room on the second floor.

Ye Feng observed the situation on the first floor from above. When he saw John Lee’s actions, he already knew what John Lee was going to do.

Creating momentum.

Then, he’d enter the circles.

In fact, if John Lee had not harassed Fuuma Jianwu yesterday, Ye Feng would not care what John Lee did, but after what happened yesterday, how could Ye Feng let John Lee have his way?

Thinking of this, Ye Feng took out his phone and sent a message to Argyll Hanson.

“Do me a favor and make him lose face!”

After sending the message, Ye Feng threw his phone on the table, he was vague, but he believed that Argyll Hanson would know what to do.

Ye Feng did not believe that Argyll Hanson could not tell what John Lee was trying to do.

Downstairs, the auctioneer was still shouting.

“Everyone!”

“Five million Sun Never Sets pounds!”

“Guest number five has bid five million. Is there anyone who wants to bid higher?”

“Is there nothing else?”

Even though he was unwilling, the auctioneer still had to express his feelings. He picked up the auction mallet and knocked it down. He shouted, “Five million going once!”

“Are there any more?”

“Everyone!”

“I guarantee that this jade Buddha is unique. Don’t miss it!”

Bang!

The auctioneer picked up the gavel and knocked again. “Five million going twice!”

“Hahaha!”

“Thank you, everyone!”

Seeing that the auction gavel had been knocked for the second time and the jade Buddha was about to belong to him, John Lee would not miss this opportunity to show his face. He stood up and thanked the elites present.

However…

At this moment.

A voice suddenly came from the second floor.

“5.05 million!”

“Everyone, five million going three times…” Upon hearing this voice, the auctioneer’s raised gavel froze in the air. John Lee’s smiling face froze along with the gavel.

“It’s from the second floor!”

“VIP room number three on the second floor!”

“That’s the private room of the Argyll family. The voice just now sounded like Young Master Argyll Hanson. I didn’t expect him to be interested in this jade Buddha!”

At this moment, the elites present had already reacted.

“What?!”

“Argyll Hanson of the Argyll Family?!”@@novelbin@@

Upon hearing the name Argyll, John Lee’s face turned green. He had come to the Sun Never Sets Empire to develop himself, and he had tried every means to blend into the upper class of the empire. How could he not know the name Argyll Hanson?

Without any hesitation.

John Lee quickly put on a smile.
