Chapter 85: Auction House (4)

The auction amount of 720 million dollars for a single person can be said to be almost the tenth highest single person auction amount in the Treasure Pavilion Auction House auction for so long.

The first one was 2 billion dollars. At that time, the auction was a national treasure, but now that national treasure has been lying in the national museum.

There are tens of billions of people present here tonight, and there are also people worth hundreds of billions.

A mere 720 million, they can all take it out.

However, this auction is not about land, not buildings, nor any other projects that can bring huge benefits.

But just some historical antiques.

These antiques have no investment value except for appreciation or gifting.

However, Lee Minho not only took pictures, but almost all of them were taken at a price exceeding the value of the antique itself.

Spending 720 million dollars, just to throw away. Even if the net worth is tens of billions, he has to hesitate again and again.

After all, these so-called worths of tens of billions and hundreds of billions are just market value.

It's not a liquid assets or funds where you can pull out anytime.

Like on TV and in novels, those things that are casually worth billions or tens of billions are simply nonsense.

The richer people are, the more stingy they are. That's because they have too many assets in their hands and need a lot of operating funds.

Therefore, there is generally not much liquidity in hand.

It's not that the family has an inexhaustible amount of working capital to give hundreds of millions casually like this, and let the younger

generation spend it at the auction.

It means that the family attach great importance to Lee Minho.

Therefore, after the auction ended, many people came forward to chat with Lee Minho.

It would be even better if you can add friends.

Quite a few actresses and socialites looked at Lee Minho as if they wished to eat him.

If it weren't for Kang Taehyun and others to protect and stop them, those women might have thrown themselves into Lee Minho's arms.

Qin Anze felt sour and hated when he saw the Autumn Winds like the moon surrounded by stars.

He said directly and loudly.

"Tch, what is it to take pictures of those things, look at him, does he look like someone who has money to pay?"

Lee Minho walked up to Qin Anze and said.

"Whether I have the money to pay is my business, so don't bother Mr. Qin. It's just that Mr. Qin bought a pair of jade pendants at a high price of 45 million, I haven't had time to

congratulate yet."

"Are you looking for death?"

'Why did I spend the 45 million dollars to take

pictures of the pair of jade pendants? Isn't it because I was cheated by Lee Minho?'

He dared to mention it in front of me. Of course, Qin Anze hated him even more to the bone.

For the 45 million, he could only call his father for help. In the end, although he got 45 million, he was directly scolded by his father.

At this time, Qin Anze was accumulating anger that had nowhere to vent.

"You wait for me. You can still laugh in this Treasure Pavilion. After leaving the Treasure Pavilion, I'll see if you can still laugh after a while."

Qin Anze gritted his teeth.

Lee Minho patted his chest and made a frightened look.

"Oh, I'm so Scared. Young Master Fang, I have contributed so much money to your auction anyway, it should be fine if you send someone to escort me right? I'm afraid of leaving this

door, I won't be able to go back."

"As long as Mr. Lee can pay all the auction price, this auction house will directly provide Mr. Lee with a full escort service."

Fang Jun came over with a group of bodyguards, and he glanced at Qin Anze coldlym

"In Kyoto, if you want to do something to the guests of my auction house, it is tantamount to making an enemy of our Fang family."

This idiot actually dared to threaten the customers of their auction house in public in his auction house.

This is completely ignoring their auction house.

If Lee Minho was really hurt by this idiot, then how could their auction house do business in Kyoto in the future.

How could their Fang family gain a foothold in Kyoto?

Qin Anze turned pale when he heard Fang Jun's words.

But soon, Qin Anze pretended to be calm again ands said to Fang Jun.

"Young Master Fang, don't be fooled by this liar, he doesn't have that much money to pay."

Yes, as long as this liar has no money to pay, he is not considered a customer of the Treasure Pavilion Auction House.

Not only would Fang Jun not protect him, but he would probably turn around and deal with him.

So don't be afraid, if you can't pay after a while, it will be the death date of this scammer.

Fang Jun looked at Lee Minho, waiting for him to express his opinion.

If Lee Minho didn't have the money to pay, then it would appear that Lee Minho was playing tricks on them.

Of course Fang Jun would not let him go.

Kang Taehyun and others stood behind Lee Minho, not worried at all.

They knew that Lee Minho couldn't be the kind of stupid person who would make a film without money.

Isn't that looking for death for yourself!

Lee Minho didn't argue, he just took out an ordinary savings card from his pocket, and handed it to Fang Jun.

Qin Anze burst into laughter when he saw that Lee Minho was holding an ordinary savings card.

"Look, I'll just say he's a liar. How much money can such a junk savings card have. Young Master Fang, I suggest that your people take care of him, lest he wait a while and run away while no one is paying attention."

However, no one paid any attention to him.

Fang Jun glanced at a staff member of Treasure Pavilion Auction House beside him.

The staff immediately stepped forward and respectfully took the savings card in Lee Minho's hand.

Then take the card and swipe it on the credit card machine in their hand.

With two beeps, the payment was successful, and the credit card machine spit out a white receipt.

Seeing that the payment was successful with Lee Minho's card, Qin Anze shouted in disbelief.

"How is it possible, how could he have so much money."

When the people around saw that Lee Minho's payment was successful, their eyes lit up.

Lee Minho calmly took out his savings card from the staff member's hand.

He then looked at Fang Jun with a smile.

Fang Jun said to the bodyguards around him.

"You drive and send him back."

"Yes."

Several bodyguards answered in unison.

The smile on Lee Minho's face widened.

"See you tomorrow."

Hearing thisz Fang Jun just nodded. He didn't expect that Lee Minho could still laugh when he knew that he is his opponent tomorrow's game.

After watching Lee Minho and others leave, Qin Anze clenched his hands into fists.

Even though he really wanted to go up and teach Lee Minho a lesson. But he knew that the occasion was not suitable.

Although he has an impulsive personality, he is not completely brainless.

On the way back, Kang Taehyun was very excited when he saw the two off-road vehicles following behind him.

"Young Master Lee, you are really awesome tonight. Did you see Qin Anze's face turned blue?"

Seeing Qin Anze so embarrassed in front of Lee Minho, Kang Taehyun felt better than eating his favorites.

"Qin Anze made so many troubles in Treasure Pavilion tonight, Fang Jun must start to trouble the Qin family tonight."

"I thought that this illegitimate son of the Qin family was some kind of extraordinary person. Now it seems that the Qin family is also at the end of the road."

Lee Minho stretched his waist and yawned.

"Never mind them, anyway, after tornight, Qin Anze should have a long and hard time and won't show up again."

It was the first time he came out, and it made Fang Jun lively. If he came out for the second time, he might offend that party again.

As long as the members of the Qin family are not extremely stupid, Qin Anze will not be allowed to come out within a short time.

Even if Qin Anze is allowed to come out again, he should be released after a good education.

He is now a guest of Treasure Pavilion. If he taught Lee Minho a lesson, he will be slapping Fang Jun and the Fang family.

Lee Minho couldn't help sighing, this thing was worth buying tonight.

Although what Fang Jun said was just for the face of their Fang family. But this does not prevent Lee Minho from getting actual benefits.

When Lee Minho returned home, Kang Taehyun and the others put away all the items from the auction and left.

And Lee Minho couldn't wait to start the rebate draw.

Of course, for such an important moment like this, you have to take a bath and change clothes in advance.

Lee Minho was so devout that he almost didn't burn incense.

Seeing the numbers rolling on the virtual big screen in front of him, Lee Minho's heart was beating fast.

{Congratulations to the host, you have received a random 10 times Super Rebate. The rebate has been transferred to the host's account.}

'In 3-300 times, I only won 10 times the rebate?'

Originally thought that he was possessed, but it turned out to be his own delusion.

There was a text message notification on Lee Minho's phone immediately. His account received 7.2 billion dollars.

Looking at the series of numbers, Lee Minho only felt a little difficult to breathe, his eyes were a little old-fashioned, and his head was a little dizzy.

7.2 billion, so much money, even if Lee Minho eats, drinks, and had fun, it probably won't be enough to used up in a lifetime.

"No, I can't take it anymore. I'll sleep first to calm down."

After finishing speaking, Lee Minho immediately turned off the phone, then dropped the phone to charge, turned down the air conditioner, covered the quilt, and closed his eyes.

The next day, when Kang Taehyun came to look for Lee Minho, he found that Lee Minho had two dark circles under his eyes.

Like he didn't sleep last night.

"Young Master Lee, you didn't sleep well last night?"

"Yeah."

Lee Minho was as wilted as a pickle that had lost its moisture.

He looked at the numbers on his phone last night and couldn't fall asleep until three o'clock in the morning.

So excited.

In the end, if it wasn't for the system not being able to stand it anymore and forcing him to sleep, he might really have to open his eyes until dawn.

Even so, when Lee Minho woke up today, his eyes were like panda eyes.

When he used to work part-time, he often stayed up late, and got used to it.

But since he got the system, he hasn't stayed up late fora long time.

He never went out to work again, his skin is so fair that it makes dark circles especially noticeable.

Today is the fourth round of the competition, because it is a competition held in 75 cities across the country.

When the fifth round starts, the time integral calculation will be implemented.

What is event point calculation?

That is, from the 5th round to the 12th round of the seven rounds, the contestants' game time will be calculated.

In some cities, if the number of participants is not enough, it needs to merge with the participants from the neighboring city to compete together.

The race time of all participants will be recorded together.

Then after the 12 rounds are over, the top 65 players with the least time can compete with professional chess players.

After the first four rounds of the competition, those who basically came to join in the fun have been eliminated.

Therefore, today's fourth round is a crucial round.
