Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System-Chapter 152 A Sky-High Price of 500 Million
"100 million euros!" The owner of Room 02 seemed to be protesting Fang Jueyu's sweeping auction behavior. Being the underground Emperor of all Europe, many of his businesses might not see the light of day, yet the profit margins were eye-popping. 100 million euros was just a small number to him.
Atom's assistant had just brought back news. Although they couldn't find out who was in Room 01, it was said to not be someone from the Ladinic Family.
It made sense; the Ladinic Family's business, though vast, had never reached into Asia and had no dealings with Huaxia people. The owner of Room 01 was obviously a Huaxia person. How could he possibly be related to the Ladinic Family?
But Atom wasn't a fool. Since the Rothschild family gave the room belonging to the Ladinic Family to them, this bastard from Huaxia was definitely no small fry.
"Could it be Huaxia's military?" Atom knew that many countries had sent military representatives this time to compete for those items, and Huaxia's research in that area was not very advanced yet, so it wasn't impossible for them to come.
Huaxia was no longer the country that could be bullied at will. For Huaxia's sake, the Rothschild family assigning them that room seemed reasonable.
But the voice was too young, and the way he was spending money recklessly, wasn't he afraid of running out of funds? Atom didn't really want this piece of artwork, but he wanted to test just how strong the person in Room 01 really was!
"Is this guy going head-to-head with me?" Fang Jueyu couldn't possibly know all of Atom's thoughts. However, he had just made a bold claim: in this auction, Atom shouldn't expect to buy anything, and Fang Jueyu intended to spend as much money as possible!
"200 million euros!" He didn't lack money at all, shouting out the price without engaging his brain.
"What? He just doubled it? Is he crazy?"
"I doubt he actually has that much money. Isn't he here just to cause trouble?"
"Organizer, I demand an asset verification for the owner of Room 01!"
If a 10 million euro price increment still felt acceptable, raising the price by 100 million euros in one go, and in euros no less, was probably something no one could swallow. In this situation, asset verification was the best strategy.
"Verify my assets?" Fang Jueyu found it somewhat amusing. If they knew how much money he had, they might just fall off their chairs in shock.
"Master, leave this small matter to me!" Colt's face was full of disdain. The Ladinic Family's assets were already astronomical, and that was just a fraction of Fang Jueyu's wealth. Someone dared to question his assets? Were they out of their minds?
Colt dialed a number and said something hurriedly. Moments later, Scarlett, standing on the auction stage, seemed to receive some news. She spoke into her earpiece for a moment, then resumed her previous smile.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the organizer just informed me that they have verified the assets of the owner of Room 01. They are fully capable of paying the 200 million euro fee, so you don't need to worry about that!"
The Rothschild family estimated this piece of artwork was valued at 180 million euros, but the price Fang Jueyu yelled out had already made a tidy profit.
"Are Huaxia people this wealthy now?" a few rich attendees whispered.
"Maybe, Huaxia has seen the rise of many wealthy individuals. Perhaps the mysterious rich man in that room is one of them."
"By the way, do you all remember that auction over two years ago?" Suddenly, someone recalled that incident.
At that mention, many people's expressions changed. In that previous auction, a mysterious Huaxian billionaire had also crazily swept through the auction items, much like today's scene—an echo of the past.
"Could it be? Is it him again?"
"If he's here, what are we bidding on? It's just a show for him!"
Many who attended the auction years ago where Fang Huai was present were getting nervous. That person's wealth was an unknown quantity. A rough estimate suggested he spent at least 80 billion US dollars in that auction, a figure that could scare people to death.
"Is there anyone else willing to offer more? Going once!" Scarlett was very satisfied with this price and guessed there wouldn't be a higher bid.
"Going twice!"
"Hold on, I bid 250 million euros!" The owner of Room 02 once again quoted a staggering price.
"300 million euros!" Fang Jueyu wasn't afraid of competitors, only afraid of no competition!
Atom didn't really want the painting, but he certainly wouldn't allow Fang Jueyu to win it easily. This way, Fang Jueyu would be taught a warning and a lesson by spending more unjustified money.
He simply didn't know that for Fang Jueyu, the more expensive the better. Atom's actions were helping Fang Jueyu spend money. If he knew Fang Jueyu was inwardly thrilled, he might have felt like smashing the table.
"Do you dare bid higher?" Atom's smile widened. "350 million!"
"400 million!"
"450 million!"
"500 million!"
"It's actually reached 500 million! An astronomical price, absolutely astronomical!"

Fang Jueyu's previously slight smile had also turned grim. He did want to spend more money, but he didn't want to be seen as a fool. Atom's intentions were clear: he wanted Fang Jueyu to bleed money heavily!
"Colt, who is the person next door in Room 02?" Fang Jueyu asked.
"It's Atom, the supreme ruler of Europe's underground forces," Colt replied. He could tell Fang Jueyu was a bit angry. "Master, shall I send someone to give him a warning?"
Atom's power was formidable, but it was insignificant in front of the Ladinic Family.
"No rush, I want to see what more tricks he can play!" Fang Jueyu squinted; anyone who took advantage of him had never had a good outcome.
The painting was ultimately sold for 500 million euros, and Scarlett was grinning ear to ear. She earned 32 million euros, more than three times her commission already!
"Congratulations to the owner of Room 01 for successfully acquiring this rare treasure. Now, let's present the next auction item!"
A platform draped with red silk was pushed up; it held an exquisitely detailed bronze dog head statue.
All the wealthy attendees from Huaxia held their breath. After waiting so long, this item was finally being presented!
"Buy it, no matter what, we must acquire it!" Fang Jueyu clenched his fists; this was not just an artifact, it symbolized the dignity of Huaxia, something that couldn't be measured with money alone!
