Chương 182: Auction (Part III)

In the auction hall on the first storey, the fake auction continued to progress steadily.

Although the final price was decided slightly later than the one on the second storey, it was fixed at thirty thousand gold.

Looking at the auctioneer on the stage, Ferdinand's eyes narrowed a little, feeling a little disappointed.

It was not as if they had not thought of taking Bruno's thirty thousand gold on the second storey and paying the black-robed leader twenty-eight thousand gold on the first storey, thus earning a profit.

But if they were to do so, it would increase the chances of their cover being blown up. Neither the high officer from the Ministry of Finance supporting Bruno nor the Conferred Knight who had brought the parietal bones were people they could trifle with.

Therefore, in order to minimize the chances of their cover being blown up, they gave up on this chance to earn money.
