Pirates: Building a Pirate Family.
Chapter 1333 Auction Trouble (9)
But at that critical moment, a bland voice suddenly resounded throughout the auction hall: "One billion berries!"
This sudden shout was like a thunder, exploding in everyone's ears.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, and saw a proud and arrogant Celestial Dragon standing up among the group of Celestial Dragons, with arrogance and disdain on his face, as if the world should revolve around him.
Upon hearing the offer, Nami was stunned. The "500 million berries" that were already at her lips seemed to be strangled by an invisible big hand and she couldn't spit it out.
She stared with wide eyes at the celestial dragon who was bidding the price in disbelief, her heart filled with shock and anger.
Luffy on the side was also shocked. He quickly turned his head to look at Hachi and asked anxiously: "Hachi, didn't you tell me before that the price of a mermaid is usually between 200 million and 500 million? What's going on? How can someone suddenly shout out such an outrageous price of 1 billion! "
Xiao Ba's expression turned very ugly. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. He looked at the group of arrogant Celestial Dragons and explained helplessly, "Alas... Luffy, there is nothing we can do. The ones who made the bid this time are Celestial Dragons! They have always been arbitrary and arrogant. They don't play by the rules at all. As long as they like something, they will buy it without hesitation no matter how expensive it is."
Just as everyone was still immersed in surprise, another clear and firm female voice suddenly rang out: "1.5 billion berries!"
Everyone's attention was drawn to the place again. It turned out that Daisy stood up, raised her hand fearlessly, and loudly announced her bid.
Her action was undoubtedly a blatant provocation to the Celestial Dragons. Upon seeing this, the Celestial Dragons were furious. They jumped up and down in their seats, shouting something, and the scene was thrown into chaos.
The Tianlong people were so angry that they were shaking all over and their faces were livid, but they knew in their hearts that although they were of noble status and powerful, the other party was not someone they could bully at will.
Although he was filled with resentment and unwillingness, he did not dare to act rashly, for fear that the crazy woman would do the same thing again.
So, the Tianlong people gritted their teeth, glared fiercely in the direction of the Rockefeller family, and then raised the sign in their hands again and shouted: "Sixteen billion!"
There was obvious anger and unwillingness to admit defeat in his voice.
With the Celestial Dragons' offer, the already tense atmosphere instantly became like a lit powder keg, ready to explode at any moment.
At this time, the Rockefeller family would not show weakness. Daisy raised her lips slightly, revealing a contemptuous smile, and continued to raise the price without hesitation: "Two billion!"
This time, the price was increased by 400 million berries. Such a huge price increase made everyone present gasp.
Everyone turned their eyes to where the Rockefeller family was, their eyes filled with astonishment.
No one expected that the bidding would become so intense.
You know, 2 billion berries is not a small amount, but for the Rockefeller family, this amount of money may not mean anything at all.
Because at this moment, the woman sitting next to Daisy is the legendary Golden Empress!
She controls 30% of the world's gold resources and is as rich as a country. A mere 2 billion berries is just a drop in the bucket for her.
When the auctioneer heard this astonishing number, he was stunned and his mind went blank, as if he had been struck by lightning.
It took him a long time to come back to his senses, and his hands were shaking with excitement.
Two billion berries!
This is undoubtedly an astronomical figure, and it is probably also the highest single auction price in the history of this auction.
What is even more surprising is that the last person who set the auction record was also from the Rockefeller family - the famous Mr. Rockefeller Charlotte.
It seems that today's auction is destined to become a hot topic that people will talk about for a long time after dinner.
Daisy raised her eyebrows slightly, turned up the corners of her mouth, and revealed a scornful smile. She just stared straight at the Celestial Dragon, her eyes full of disdain.
That expression seemed to be silently mocking, "Humph, with just this little bit of your ability, you dare to show off in front of me? You really overestimate your own abilities!"
Not only Daisy, but Brett, Brian and others on the side also turned their heads and looked at the Celestial Dragons with the same disdainful eyes.
They all held their heads high and looked arrogant, as if they did not take these so-called celestial dragons seriously at all.
This was a serious matter. The Celestial Dragons instantly exploded like a powder keg that had been lit.
You know, in the past, no one has ever dared to challenge them in terms of money.
After all, as the high and mighty Celestial Dragons, wealth is almost something that comes easily to them.
However, today, some people dared to openly challenge their authority, which undoubtedly touched their most sensitive pain point.
At this moment, the Tianlong man who had just made the bid stared at the eye-catching number "2 billion" in front of him, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.
Such a huge sum of money could not be easily taken out in a short time even for him as a Celestial Dragon.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at his companions beside him.
After a brief thought, the Tianlong finally made up his mind. He gritted his teeth and shouted viciously to his companions: "The damn Rockefeller family is so arrogant! They don't even take us great Tianlong people seriously! Today we must teach them a lesson and let them know who is the real master! Lend me the money quickly, I want to see whether the Rockefeller family is richer or we Tianlong people are more wealthy!"
After saying this, he glared at Daisy and the others opposite him with an angry look on his face. A fierce competition for wealth was about to begin.
When the rest of the Celestial Dragons heard this, quite a few of them who were hot-headed and emotional immediately showed anger on their faces.
A Tianlong shouted, "Don't borrow any money. I have 1.3 billion here. You can use it all. You don't have to pay it back!"
Before he finished speaking, another Tianlong shouted, "I also have 1.8 billion here, just open your mouth!"
Then a third celestial dragon shouted at the top of his voice: "I can also take out 1.5 billion, let those bumpkins see who is the richest person!"
