Billionaire God of War novel (Jiang Ning) novel Chapter 1681

The starting bid was US$100?

Everyone did think they had heard wrongly.

Anything that Ko San sold started at US$1 million or more. How could it start at only US$100? Was this a joke?

Everyone was equally puzzled.

"I repeat, the starting bid is US$100," said the auctioneer with a smile. "This manual belongs to whoever it's fated to be with, and its value cannot be determined by money. As such, Mr Ko would like this item to start at US$100."

He pointed to the page inside the glass case. "Alright now, everyone can start bidding!"

"$50 million."

Everyone was still trying to guess what Ko San was trying to do with such a low starting bid. They didn't know what price to call either.

And they didn't know if each call would be an additional $100 or some other number.

But before anyone figured these things out, a loud voice resonated through the hall.

US$50 million!

Someone seated in another corner was about to raise his plaque and call for US$1,000 when he heard this other bid and his hand awkwardly stopped midair.

US$50 million?

The price went from $100 to $50 million from the very first call?

Which crazy idiot was this?!

Everyone's gaze instantly fell on the first row, where Jiang Ning had gently raised his plaque and hadn't moved an inch.

Had he heard wrongly? The starting price was $100! Not $10 million!

And even if it started at $10 million, how could someone immediately call for a price that was $40 million above the starting bid?

The entire hall fell silent and had differing opinions on this matter.

Some people were staring at Jiang Ning and wondered about his intentions. Some were also staring at the manual and wondered if Jiang Ning knew some secret about this manual, which made him so determined to get this item.

"$60 million!" Another voice rang out before they could figure anything out.

Everyone turned to see that the voice belonged to Lee Seongbong!

He raised his plaque and called out his bid, but before he could even put his plaque down...

"$100 million," Jiang Ning raised his plaque again without the slightest hesitation.

There was a gleam in his eye as well, because he had never seen any auction proceed like this before. The price was going up by tens of millions, and even famous paintings weren't auctioned off like this.

Furthermore, this was just a boxing manual with a mysterious origin.

The auctioneer had said these words only to give Lee Seongbong a chance to make a bid. Jiang Ning had already called for $500 million, so surely Lee Seongbong would have to call for a higher bid.

Jiang Ning laughed and just kept his plaque in the air. He turned to glance at Lee Seongbong. "Mr Lee, just keep calling your bids. I'll add $100 million on top of any bid he makes."

WOONG.

Everyone's head was spinning.

Was this a fight between the two of them?

They didn't care what they were fighting over and just wanted to win with the amount of money spent?

Things certainly looked that way.

But was it worth throwing away hundreds of millions for this tiny piece of paper?

This was just helping Ko San to make a killing.
