Evidently, arguing was fruitless, hence Calvin initiated the bidding decisively. "One hundred and seventy million yuan!"
Mr. Hu did not hesitate and shouted vigorously, "One hundred and eighty million yuan!"
As a result, many wealthy merchants stopped bidding. After all, they could not afford to pay for it.
In truth, most of the executives only had a net worth of one billion yuan. Therefore, it was impossible for them to fork out 200 million yuan to bid for a talisman.
In the end, the auction turned into a fierce competition between Calvin and Mr. Hu.
Immediately, Mr. Hu announced his bid. Calvin paused to glance at Mr. Hu before raising his bidder card and exclaimed, "Two hundred million yuan."
"What?!" Mr. Hu was hesitant but he gritted his teeth and decided to raise his bidder card.
Suddenly, Calvin spoke, "Mr. Hu, your company seems to be struggling and you're having troubles with your assets. Are you sure you're going to fish out two hundred million yuan to bid forTormiado Talisman? Your company's shareholders won't be happy about it, right?"
Mr. Hu’s face darkened.
Calvin was smug as he added arrogantly, "Mr. Hu, why don't you let me have Tormiado Talisman? I'll definitely remember your help."
Calvin's remarks put out Mr. Hu's determination. In the end, Mr. Hu lowered his arm reluctantly.
Calvin smirked and glanced at Brayden. He asked proudly, "Young Master Chiu, two hundred million yuan is the highest price. Shouldn't you end the bid?"
Brayden intended to make more money, hence he did not close the bidding. On the contrary, he gazed at the wealthy merchants and tempted, "Everyone, my master put in painstaking effort to craft this talisman. After this, it would be impossible to get your hands on Tormiado Talisman."
Brayden's remarks caused a stir among the wealthy merchants. After all, they were willing to spend a fortune in exchange for their lives.
Nita was fidgeting as well. She bit her lip and wondered if she should raise her bidder card.
On the other hand, Fade was observing the talisman. In the end, he pressed Nita's arm and shook his head. He concluded, "Nita, don't."
"Fade, I..." Nita was confused.
Meanwhile, Calvin scanned the anxious crowd. He was intimidating and tempting the bidders.
Alas, no one raised their bidder cards to compete with Calvin.
Brayden was a little upset with the outcome but he hammered the gavel reluctantly. In the end, Calvin purchased Tormiado Talisman for two hundred million yuan!
Calvin was thrilled and proud as he received the talisman.
After all, he crushed his opponents and managed to acquire a valuable talisman. The talisman was a display of his wealth and status.
Brayden was on stage as he received the money. He chatted with the wealthy merchants briefly and he was prepared to leave.
Nita glanced at Fade in confusion and there was a hint of regret in her eyes.
