Chapter 788: A Truly Rich Man!
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After saying this, the host reached out and lifted the red cloth on the table.
Everyone’s eyes widened as they looked curiously at the items on the table.
At this mont, there was a fist-sized and completely black dicinal herb on the table.
This dicinal herb gave people the feeling that it was like a piece of charcoal. There was nothing magical about it at all.
“What is this?”
“Yeah, I’ve been in the dicinal herb business for so many years, but I’ve never seen this kind of dicinal herb before!”
“What is this thing?”
“Since even the people from the auction house do not know what this thing is, it is definitely impossible for us to see it with our naked eyes…”
When the dicinal herb rchants present saw this dicinal herb, their eyes widened in disbelief.
Connor knew nothing about herbs. If it wasn’t for the mission Jorge gave him, Connor wouldn’t have co to this place. Therefore, he was not very interested in this strange dicinal herb.
“The starting price of this dicinal herb is five million. If you are interested in this dicinal herb, you can try to bid!”
The emcee looked at the crowd with a smile and continued, “However, I have to add that because no one knows what this dicinal herb is, our auction house will not be responsible if this dicinal herb is auctioned off. Therefore, I hope that everyone will be careful!”
When the guests heard the host’s words, they were stunned on the spot. Their expressions were extrely shocked.
This was because they had never expected that the starting price of this strange dicinal herb would actually be five million.
No one would be so foolish as to spend five million to buy such a pitch-black herb.
Even if it was gambling, no one would gamble like this!
“Mr. McDonald, didn’t you want to buy a thousand year old wild ginseng?”
At this mont, Diana asked Connor softly.
When Connor heard Diana’s words, he couldn’t help but be stunned for a mont. Then, he frowned and asked, “What do you an by that?”
“Mr. McDonald, if I’m not mistaken, the dicinal herb on the table should be a thousand-year-old wild ginseng. Although it looks black on the outside, I think the real thousand-year-old wild ginseng should be hidden inside that black charcoal. Because this wild ginseng is too old, it has ford a black fossil around it…” Diana said slowly.
“Are you sure this is a thousand year old wild ginseng?”
Connor couldn’t help but ask in a low voice.
“That’s right, I’m sure!”
Diana nodded.
“…”
Connor turned his head to look at Diana. He could tell that Diana was very serious when she spoke to him. It didn’t seem like she was joking with him.
The list Jorge gave Connor did indeed say that he wanted a thousand-year-old wild ginseng, so Connor was still very excited.
“Mr. McDonald, the price of a thousand-year-old wild ginseng is more than 50 million, and it’s sothing that can only be found by luck. These dicinal herb rchants probably don’t know what it is, so we can take advantage of it this ti!”
Diana said happily to Connor.
“Alright, I understand…”
Connor looked at Diana and nodded lightly, then raised his hand and shouted, “I’ll pay five million!”
After everyone heard Connor’s words, they turned their heads to look at Connor’s position with shocked expressions on their faces.
Because they never dread that there would really be soone willing to pay so much money to buy this dicinal herb!
At this mont, in the eyes of these people, Connor was simply a fool with a lot of money.
Spending five million to buy such a black dicinal herb, this was simply a problem with his brain!
In an instant, the entire auction venue fell silent. It was as if no one wanted to compete with Connor at all.
Diana revealed a proud smile. If she could really spend five million to buy this thousand-year-old wild ginseng, it would be a good thing that fell from the sky!
When the host saw that no one spoke, he slowly shouted, “Five million, going once!”
“Eight million!”
At this mont, Ruby suddenly shouted.
When everyone heard Ruby’s words, they all turned their heads to look at Ruby’s position, their faces filled with shock.
“Ten million!”
Connor did not hesitate at all and directly increased the price.
Ruby glared at Connor with a furious expression.
She couldn’t help but curse in a low voice.” This bastard. He took advantage of previously, and now he wants to snatch the dicinal herbs from …”
In fact, Ruby had no idea what this herb was. However, she felt that since the auction house could start the bid at this price, it ant that this herb must have its value. Eight million was not a lot, so she was willing to take a gamble!
But now that Connor had offered 10 million, Ruby hesitated. She turned to the middle-aged man beside her and asked softly, “Uncle Cao, is there a need to raise the price?”
“Miss, this dicinal herb should not be an ordinary thing. If we can get it within 30 million, I think we can take a gamble!”
The middle-aged man beside Ruby replied in a low voice.
“Alright…”
Ruby nodded her head lightly, then shouted expressionlessly, “15 million!”
When the guests heard Ruby’s words, they were stunned. Their faces were filled with disbelief.
This was because they could not understand. This was clearly just an extrely ordinary dicinal herb, so why were Connor and Ruby offering such a high price?
If this dicinal herb was really just an ordinary piece of charcoal, wouldn’t that be a huge loss?
Ruby herself was very rich, so even if it was a loss, no one would feel sorry for her.
However, these people did not know Connor, nor did they know what Connor did for a living. They could not understand why Connor would pay so much money.
That said, everyone could feel that Connor should not be an ordinary person. He had a beautiful woman like Diana by his side, and the fact that he could take out so much money ant that his background was definitely not simple.
When Connor heard Ruby’s bid of 15 million, he imdiately raised it to 20 million!
At this mont, the way everyone looked at Connor changed again.
These people had never seen anyone bid like this before. He actually added five million in one go!
Ruby’s face was filled with rage. She gritted her teeth and raised the bid to 30 million!
In an instant, everyone present fell silent.
At this mont, these people had finally seen what a truly rich person was!
