The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor novel Chapter 769

"Heh. Are you joking, sir? It's 900 million bucks, and you're increasing its worth to two billion?"

The pretty saleswoman was tickled by Fane's words.

Another saleswoman walked over after she heard that. "Go out and take a closer look at the advertisement outside our store, sir. Is 900 million written there? If the Abyss is worth merely 900 million, everyone should just sell all their assets to buy it first.

They’ll be earning big bucks after they get: t!"

"It's not 900 million?"

Frowning, Fane walked out; the two pretty saleswoman tailed after him.

He looked at the price tag, scanning through the chain of '0's right after the digit 9. He silently counted the zeroes twice, and shock suddenly seized him. “It's nine billion! Seems like my mother-in-law miscounted and missed a zero there!"

“Why don't you take a look at our other merchandise, sir? It's clear that you can afford it, and we carry plenty of exquisite necklaces here. The Heart of the Abyss is definitely not for sale. And it's not worth just 900 million bucks-it’s nine billion!"

The first saleswoman to have greeted Fane gave a wan smile.

Although Fane was wearing regular clothing, she noted that he dared to pay two billion bucks. He was probably a wealthy man who liked to keep a low profile.

However, his mother-in-law had missed a zero in her calculations, causing him to run into this kerfuffle.

She believed that he would have given up o n the necklace long ago if he knew that it was worth nine billion bucks. There was too big of a gap between 900 million and nine billion; that single digit made all the difference. No one would spend that much money to buy such an expensive necklace.
