Even Tenkai Hiroshi couldn't suppress his curiosity and looked at the young man, Akimasa Ten. Beside him, Furushima Sakurako asked, "Hiroshi-sama, are we raising the bid again?"
Tenkai Hiroshi shook his head and waved his hand, "No, let them fight like dogs over a bone. We'll just wait and see."
Tenkai Hiroshi was overjoyed. "Who would have thought! I originally planned to buy the Changhong Spear for five hundred million gold coins through the international auction for His Majesty the Emperor. But now I have to change my mind. Instead of keeping this national treasure as a display in the Emperor's residence, it's better to exchange it for vast military funds. I believe His Majesty will praise me greatly. Yosh, yosh..."
The stunning beauty unhesitatingly raised her paddle, "One billion two hundred fifty million."
Suddenly, someone asked with curiosity, "Impressive! Who is this lady?"
The person next to him replied, "You're really out of touch! Let me tell you, I was fortunate enough to visit Germany once and saw her. She is the heir of the Buge family, a prominent family in Germany known as 'The Shepherd,' the third daughter of Jie Huang, Mia."
"Oh? Isn't that Germany's most financially powerful conglomerate?"
"That's right, and I heard she is currently single!"
Akimasa Ten said, "One billion three hundred million."
The female host didn't call for the first bid, but directly looked at Mia, as expected, "One billion three hundred fifty million."
Akimasa Ten shook his head, "Let's get straight to the point. I only have five billion on hand."
Upon hearing this, it immediately drew some ridicule. "Who is this young man? Is he crazy? Who bids by revealing their hand directly? Perhaps this is a so-called strategy, to scare people with so much money? He's miscalculated, I don't believe he has that much money."
"I don't know, I've never seen him before, and he's so young. He must be some rich third-generation heir."
Akimasa Ten raised his paddle, "Five billion."
"Ugh~ Wow!~..."
The scene was immediately stunned. Five billion gold coins! If converted, that would be tens of billions!
"He's crazy, he's crazy. Even though it's a national treasure, this is too exaggerated, it's completely not worth this price."
"I think he doesn't have the money. He's challenging the bottom line of the auction house's backing!"
"Exactly, I think so too."
Even the female host on stage was shocked, but she had seen big scenes before. "This gentleman bids five billion gold coins, five billion gold coins for the first time! Five billion gold coins for the second time, five billion gold coins for the third time..."
"I bid five billion five hundred million."
Everyone's eyes collectively focused on that person. It was Mia, stretching her long, tanned arm, revealing her alluring armpit, making people involuntarily swallow their saliva.
Akimasa Ten frowned and looked at the two bodyguards beside her, one at the late Small Heavenly Cycle stage, and the other at the early Great Heavenly Cycle stage.
He then thought to himself, "It seems necessary to snatch the item afterward. I'll give her the money later."
The female host was all smiles, as she received a five percent commission on every item auctioned. "This lady bids five billion five hundred million gold coins for the first time... for the third time! Sold! Congratulations to this lady."
"Alright, next up is a piece of land in Ao Gu Continent..."
Akimasa Ten ignored the subsequent auctions, which were all ancient residences and land. He had no interest whatsoever.
The auction concluded successfully. As Mia stood up, he also stood up. He saw Mia walking towards him, no, to be precise, towards Kuang Lang.
