1992 The Ji Family Is Here For Me, I’ll Explain It to You Later
On the other side.
He Lin turned around again and rubbed his temples. He asked helplessly, “Sixth Elder, I think Young Miss seems to know why we’re here. Are we still going to match the price?”
Qiao Nian’s unpredictable attitude made it clear that she knew what they were doing at the underground auction and was openly challenging them.
He guessed that if they continued to bid, Qiao Nian would continue to raise the price with them.
This was the first time Ji Hongyuan had encountered such a thorn in his side. He spat out expressionlessly, “Yes!”
Qiao Nian had directly roasted them over the fire. Now, they had no choice but to continue playing.
“600 million.”
This time, Ji Hongyuan was much more cautious.
At the very least, they did not add 300 million at a time like Qiao Nian. It was still within a reasonable range. However, they had played it big this time. This “reasonable range” was only for them. To the people below, an addition of 100 million was still very unreasonable.
“800 million.”
The girl’s lazy voice sounded as soon as Ji Hongyuan finished speaking.
He Lin turned to look at him. He looked like he wanted to say something, but he hesitated.
He felt that since they were all family, there was no need to make a scene like this. If this continued, they would probably destroy all ties.
Ji Hongyuan was determined to suppress Qiao Nian’s arrogance. Even though his eyes flickered, his attitude was still very firm.
“900 million.”
Qiao Nian didn’t waste any time. She added another 100 million and rounded it up. “One billion.”
This number had already reached ten digits.
It was indeed a little big.
Ji Hongyuan was about to raise the price when the auctioneer hurriedly went on stage and stopped the auction. He quickly explained, “I’m sorry, the two of you. There’s a rule in this underground auction that the maximum price of a collection is one billion. If at one billion it hasn’t been decided yet, according to the rules, the two of you have to discuss other gameplay to prevent one party from deliberately raising the price. Do you want to change your method to determine the ownership of this collection?”
The Ji family did not lack a few billion.
If Ji Hongyuan wanted to continue playing with her, she would also dare to continue.
However, the Independent Continent’s underground auction had its own rules. It was impossible to let the two sides fall out in their territory.
At this moment, the auctioneer hurriedly went on stage to stop this bottomless increase in price. It could be considered to have stopped the development in time.
Nan Tianyi had been dumbfounded as he watched the situation develop to this point. His heart was already like a mirror. His dignified face looked extremely awful, and his tiger eyes darkened. He was so angry that he whispered, “The Ji family clearly knows that the meat Ganoderma is useful for me, but they still deliberately raised the price with me. What do they mean?”
Qiao Nian did not explain too much. She only said, “Uncle Nan, they’re here for me. They’re not targeting you on purpose.”
“But you don’t know them.” Nan Tianyi still didn’t understand why Ji Hongyuan was targeting Qiao Nian.
He rubbed his furrowed brows and paced back and forth. Then, he stopped and looked at the girl. He guessed, “Could it be that they misunderstood your relationship with Ji Nan?”
Qiao Nian did not expect him to think of Ji Nan. She smiled and leaned back. “No, it has nothing to do with Ji Nan.”
“Then…”
“I’ll explain this to you when we get back.” Qiao Nian placed her hand on her lap and threw a numbered card on the table. Then, she stood up and said, “I have to get the meat Ganoderma today. Uncle Nan, do you mind?”
