Even so, Chuzheng had spent just shy of a billion.
There's still another billion left!!
"The starting bid is fifty million!"
Fifty million!
This one must go for a billion!
On it!
Chuzheng braced herself; she was quick to raise her bidding sign at first, and in under a minute, the price had soared to sixty million.
But once it reached sixty million, the pace of the bidding slowed.
Chuzheng looked up at the stage; it was a crown, reportedly once owned by a member of the royal family of some country, and it was extraordinary in value.
Under the lights, the crown indeed looked very beautiful.
"One billion!"
Seeing that the bidding in front of her had slowed, Chuzheng immediately increased the price.
I'm going to double it if you keep dawdling!!
The room suddenly fell quiet; heads turned and all eyes were on Chuzheng.
This crown is valuable, sure, but one billion... seems a bit much for its worth, right? Which family's scion is this, squandering their wealth?!
