100 million!
That was a nine digit number, a 1 followed by eight zeroes.
Somerland had a population of more than one billion, but ninety nine point nine percent of its people
could never get their hands on so much money within their entire lives.
As everyone sucked in a cold breath, the meeting room door coincidentally creaked as Jasper opened
it.
His footsteps slowly moved further away, but the sound of the attendees’ thumping hearts in the room
only grew louder.
Once the door closed, the venue erupted into chaos. Everyone began talking among themselves.
‘100 million!’
‘That’s 100 million Somer Dollars!’
‘Not even the net worth of everyone in the room equals such a sum!’
Even Scott was stunned.
He did not even have the chance to wipe the prideful expression off his face before his expression
froze.
He even doubted if he had heard correctly.
Scott shot to his feet and shouted, “What the f*ck! How much did you bid?”
Jasper had already left, so Scott could only stare at Baz and ask.
Baz was completely unafraid.
He shrugged and touched the bandage over his head. Seeing how Scott looked pretty much the same
as he did, Baz replied calmly, “I bid 100 million.”
Scott’s heart raced and his breath quickened. The Covington family would have to sell everything they
had to take out 100 million Somer Dollars.
Yet, Jasper had so easily taken this money out to acquire Downstream Investment Company.
‘What? Was he kidding?’
At this moment, Scott felt like some bigshot had destroyed his plans while he and his group of people
were playing house.
“What did your boss tell you, brat? Don’t play around, you’re going to have to pay the price you called
out! Otherwise, both you and your boss will die tragically!”
Baz thought back to what Jasper told him when he heard Scott’s sinister tone and replied with a smile,
“My boss told me that he doesn’t have time to waste with you people here. He’s calling 100 million right
off the bat to deter you people.”
“Of course.”
Baz added with an extremely domineering smile.
“My boss also said that if you continue to raise to price, then we’ll also call for 200 million. Up until you
cannot take it anymore.”
Everyone present exchanged a look when they heard him.
‘There’s more?’
‘This 100 million is already beyond our capabilities, okay?!’
Scott ground his molars.
He had originally planned to crush Jasper with money during this auction.
However, before he could do anything, Jasper immediately pulled 100 million out to completely
overwhelm him.
Indignance, disbelief, and fear flooded Scott’s chest. He only had one thought in mind now.
“Find out who he is! Right now! He’s got to be someone powerful otherwise he can’t possibly pull out
100 million just like that!”
“I don’t care who he is, but I’ll make him pay for humiliating me!”
In the quiet room, the auctioneer gulped and asked carefully, “100 million going once. Is… is there
anyone willing to offer more?”
This sentence had everyone who was shocked by Scott’s wretched expression snap back to reality.
Everyone shook their heads and sighed. Who were they kidding? This was 100 million! No one could
afford to call for a higher price.
This was an auction of Tefa City City Government’s assets. No one would dare to risk angering the
government by joking about this.
Was 100 million a lot?
