91 Exorbitant Price (1/2)
Xiao Ming was the first one to piss Max this much. Max wasn't a good person. His belief was simple; if someone annoyed him, he would get them back one hundred times worse.
If someone helped him, then he would only thank them and most likely forget about it the next day. That's how his head works. Not that he was ungrateful, he only knows that if he owed someone, it might come back and bite him in the future.
This will only be the beginning of Max getting Xiao Ming back. Max doesn't think that this will be enough. And this wasn't only for him, Layla and Lydia, his women, were also attacked, which made his retaliation several times harsher.
”Sorry for the long wait, everyone! Now, let me show the first item!”
The woman looked apologetically to the crowd, invoking some of their sympathies, especially those horny dogs.
”It's fine pretty lady! Take your time!”
Max curse the guy who shouted that in his mind.
'Sh*t! There's a limit to being a shameless pervert! Are you a virgin?! Why can't you control yourself? Old man, you're already so old! Leave that to your grandchild!'
The bald old man was laughing on his seat, disregarding the hateful glares that he received. Some of them were angry for not being the first to say those words, thinking about how lucky the old man was.
Not minding the small commotion, the woman uncovered the cart, showing what look liked an unknown jewel.
The jewel was unpolished and dirty but didn't seem to be damaged. It was as big as a hand and shined like a diamond.
”This was an unidentified jewel that was originally an inheritance from a big family. Since they currently need a large amount of cash, they are prepared to let this jewel go for a minimum amount of one million!”
The crowd's eyes' lit up, hearing that the owner urgently needed money. That would mean they were somewhat desperate, effectively lowering the price of the treasure.
As they looked at each other with understanding on their eyes, knowing precisely what the other was thinking, but one person broke the silence,
”One million!”
A man in a suit shouted. This tiny amount of money seemed to be insignificant to him, not caring about the circumstance behind the exchange. He was prepared to use everything just to get this jewel.
”Two million!”
Another man with a beard from the other side shouted. The same as the first man, he didn't care about what most people from the crowd were planning. His eyes were only focused on the jewel.
The two of them shot the other a glare then turned back to bid higher, not wanting it to land on someone else's hands.
”Three million!”
”Four million!”
”Five million!”
The audiences' plan of keeping the price low wasn't working because even though they were a lot of them, there were still a considerable number of wealthy individuals in this place.
Some of them were in the jewelry industry and would not waste this opportunity to put their hands on a potential national treasure.
