Chapter 703: Chapter 703: Fifty Million
“From the auction house?” A smile erged at the corner of Song Jian’s mouth.
A month had passed in the real world, and his two pieces of jewelry probably hadn’t been sold yet. He wondered why the auction house was calling him now.
“Hello, Mr. Song,” ca the voice of the steward who had received him at the auction house.
“What can I do for you?” Song Jian asked.
“The thing is, Mr. Song, there is a client who wants to purchase your two pieces of jewelry in advance. He has offered to buy them for 50 million!” The steward carefully continued, “We believe that even if these were auctioned off, they would not reach this price. We recomnd that you sell the jewelry directly to this client.”
“Fifty million?” Song Jian was taken aback. The initial assessnt from the auction house was 23 million for the two pieces. Even in a bidding war, it would not have exceeded 30 million.
But now, soone was willing to almost double the price to buy these two pieces of jewelry. Song Jian was imdiately puzzled. After a mont of thought, he asked, “Does this person have any additional conditions?”
“Yes, Mr. Song, he would like to et you and invite you to dinner,” the steward replied.
Song Jian gave a slight smile, and said, “Then sell it to him. Dinner is unnecessary, but I can chat with him face to face.”
“Very well, Mr. Song!” The steward hung up the phone.
Shortly after, Song Jian received a ssage from his bank. Fifty million was directly deposited into his account, and the auction house didn’t charge any fees.
Soon, Song Jian’s phone rang again.
“Mr. Song, the money has been transferred to your card. Please check it. In addition, the client wishes to et you at Tianxi Building. You can choose the ti!”
“I’ve received the money. I’ll be at Tianxi Building in an hour,” Song Jian replied.
“Alright, I’ll pass the ssage along. The client will et you at Tianxi Building in an hour!” The steward seed to breathe a sigh of relief.
…
An hour later, Song Jian stood at the base of the Tianxi Building.
The Tianxi Building is probably a landmark building in Coastal City and the second tallest building there.
“Wanlong Group…” Song Jian murmured.
When the steward from the auction house ntioned “Tianxi Building,” Song Jian already knew who the client was.
“Mr. Song, this way please, Mr. Gao has been expecting you!” A man in a servant’s costu quickly ca out to greet Song Jian.
Song Jian nodded and followed him into Tianxi Building.
Soon, the two took the private elevator to the eighteenth floor.
A middle-aged man with a smiling face ca over to greet them. “Welco, Mr. Song, I’m Gao Da Nian. Please follow !”
“The Chairman of Wanlong Group, Gao Da Nian. Nice to et you, Chairman Gao,” Song Jian said with an unsurprised smile.
Tianxi Building was owned by the Wanlong Group. Song Jian had suspected sothing might be up when he knew the eting place was at Tianxi Building.
Soon, the two arrived at a large hall. After so small talk, Gao Da Nian took out the two pieces of jewelry that Song Jian had sold at the auction house and asked, “Mr. Song, these two pieces of jewelry are not ordinary. Can you tell where you got them?”
“Given Mr. Gao’s capabilities, shouldn’t you already know where that is?” Song Jian replied with a smile.
Those chosen by the ga were not required to keep it a secret. Plus, as the gap between ti in the ga and the real world was getting shorter and shorter, many people who hadn’t entered the ga also knew of its existence.
Many even hoped they could be selected to enter the ga.
This ti, the ti ratio between the ga and the real world changed to six to one, and players’ ti inside the ga had noticeably increased. Clearly, the ga was encouraging players to spend as much ti in the ga as possible to avoid causing too much disruption to the real world.
Song Jian had noticed that Gao Da Nian was not a player. However, his deanor had made it clear to Song Jian that he knew about the ga.
“Doomsday City, correct?” Gao Da Nian asked, playing with the two pieces of jewelry Song Jian had brought from the ga.
“Yes, Mr. Gao. Did you request this eting to learn more about the ga?” Song Jian asked.
“No.” Gao Da Nian shook his head.
Song Jian was taken aback as he had assud that Gao Da Nian had asked to et out of curiosity about the ga.
“In fact, my understanding of this ga might be no less than yours!” Gao Da Nian smiled, gestured to soone standing behind him, and received a briefcase.
Gao Da Nian opened the suitcase. Song Jian noticed several items inside, including a red potion, a ring emitting a green glow, a light blue ore, and others.
These items all had the property of being able to be brought out of the ga.
“Mr. Gao, are you collecting items from the ga?” Song Jian asked.
“Not just collecting. I want to go into the ga!” Gao Da Nian said, a fervent look in his eyes.
“Get into the ga?” Song Jian shook his head and said, “I’m afraid I can’t help with that. I don’t know how to enter the ga. I was chosen because…”
Song Jian told Gao Da Nian about how he first entered the ga and then said, “Since then, I haven’t seen that old man again!”
“I’ve said before, my knowledge of this ga might be no less than yours!” Gao Da Nian laughed after listening to Song Jian, “It might even be more than yours!”
“Oh, does Mr. Gao have a way?” Song Jian raised an eyebrow. It seed Gao Da Nian knew quite a bit!
“Have you ever heard of a ga invitation card?” Gao Da Nian asked.
“Invitation card?” Song Jian slowly shook his head. He had never encountered such a thing in the ga, and no one in his guild knew about it.
However, he couldn’t be sure if such a thing existed in the ga, given the variety of items.
“I also heard about it from a friend. I haven’t seen one either,” Gao Da Nian said, but he seed very confident.
“Mr. Gao is interested in invitation cards? Do you know how to get them?” Song Jian asked.
“Of course, the reason I invited Mr. Song to et with is that I hope you can help . I want to get a ga invitation card,” Gao Da Nian said with a smile.
“That might be difficult,” Song Jian remarked after glancing over at Gao Da Nian.
“Of course, it’s not going to be easy,” Gao Da Nian laughed. He snapped his fingers and said to Song Jian, “But the reward I’m offering will surely satisfy you!”
