Number 1 agreed and immediately went to do things. Li Cong also tidied up his clothes and slowly walked up to the podium. When the others saw Li Cong walking up, they stopped going around. At this time,
It’s time to listen to what the real owner has to say. Does that kid really have that much money?
Li Cong did not speak immediately after standing on the rostrum. Instead, he waited for a moment, and when the mysterious guy returned to his seat, he could now prove that he had this strength, and that his money was the key.
The legendary hard currency, since people have this capital, we must give them the courtesy they deserve.
A bunch of guys with no eyesight are still waiting for Li Cong's answer, but several high-status people at Yale are leaning on the back of their chairs for a while in despair. It seems that the world is about to enter another world.
It's been a troubled time, and the strength that I don't know about is coming out to cause trouble again, but this frustration is only temporary. Yale, Li Jianzhang and Lao Huoqi made eye contact. Without speaking, the three of them basically understood each other.
It means that we must jointly strangle this emerging force.
The world is only so big in the first place. If another force like this is added, the world will be divided into even fewer parts. So before this force takes shape, what they have to do is to jointly kill him. There are always unknown things.
It will bring a sense of crisis to people. At this moment, the three people put down some of their little tricks for the first time and began to prepare to strangle this emerging mysterious guy.
"Everyone, after ten minutes of appraisal, we have confirmed this gentleman's financial resources. If no one else bids, then I will announce the auction now..."
"Wait, how come no one bids? Mr. Li, you have to give us some time to mobilize funds. In fact, our Skull and Bones Society has always been very interested in this matter. The reason why I didn't bid just now is to give these people
The juniors have some opportunities, but their bids are far from the price I thought. I think Mr. Li will definitely lose money if he sells it to this guy. With my personal relationship with Mr. Li, I naturally want to help Mr. Li.
Sir, so I offered 410 billion U.S. dollars." Old Hodge said so beautifully, but he spent an extra 100 billion U.S. dollars just to help his friends.
The kingly demeanor of the Skull and Bones Society can only be seen at this time. After Old Hodge made the bid, the audience burst into warm applause. Although Old Hodge has a very stable temperament, he is still a little arrogant. Today's
Apart from Li Cong, this applause is the only one for us. Back then, Li Cong stole the show at the Skull and Bones Society headquarters, and we cannot be an exception this time.
"Of course, the auction is not over yet. Anyone can bid. Mr. Hodge from the United States has the highest bid so far. I don't know if there are still bids. If not, I think the sale will go to Hodge.
Mister owns it." When Li Cong spoke, he only referred to Mr. Hodge and did not mention the Skull and Bones Society. This word can be discussed in a small area, but it cannot be said directly and clearly.
Li Jianzhang and Yale were both watching the mysterious guy closely at this time. It seemed that this guy had already taken a break. This guy just stood up when Old Huo Qi was talking, and looked at Old Huo Qi incredulously.
Strange, he didn't understand how this old guy had so much money. He originally thought that the price he paid was four trillion US dollars, which was the highest price, but now he actually paid even more than he did. According to the rules here, he
Wouldn’t it be impossible to get it?
The mysterious man was depressed for a while. He had just shown his biggest secret to Li Cong, and Li Cong's people already knew most of his secrets. If he couldn't get it, then he would be like the Roy family.
, I exposed myself for no reason and haven’t received any benefits yet. It’s really not worth the gain.
Although Old Hodge had a smile on his face, he was actually very nervous inside. Four trillion U.S. dollars was a lot of money for anyone. In the past, the Skull and Bones Society might have gone through several months of adjustments.
You can come up with this money, but now you have to take it hard. I just talked with Yale and Li Jianzhang. The most these two guys can give themselves is 500 billion US dollars each. This is also their biggest help.
No matter how much, they won't be able to help.
It would be okay if the bid is successful now, but if it is not successful, the guy will continue to bid and there is no way to stop him. This is his own decision. There is no response from Anderson. If it fails, it will be okay to go back.
Have a good life.
"It seems that Mr. Hodge is really destined to be involved in this business. The countdown will start now. If there is no bid after the ten-second countdown, the business will belong to Mr. Hodge. Now starts on 10.9.8..."
Every time Li Cong counted a number, he was stimulating most of the people in the hall. Almost everyone hoped that the final result would not be like this. Even if the mysterious man got it, it would be better than what the Skull and Bones Society would get. The Skull and Bones Society was already the world leader.
It has become a huge force. The Skull and Bones Society is vigorously developing its power all over the world. Many people have been overwhelmed. If the Skull and Bones Society is allowed to buy this place again, then many people present are destined not to be here next year.
Came to the meeting because they had nothing left.
"Wait a minute, I'm offering 4250 billion U.S. dollars. This is my highest offer. If anyone else bids, I will give up. If no one bids, please ask Mr. Li to send someone out to inform me."
After the mysterious man finished speaking, he walked out. He had already given up, but suddenly he thought that he still had a 50% discount from Li Cong, which could still save nearly 200 billion US dollars. He went back and searched hard.
There is no problem in coming up with this number.
By saying this, he also told several other competitors that he has nothing. If you want it, just increase the price by 50 billion US dollars to surpass him. He has given up, he doesn't want it anymore, and let God decide the future.
Bar.
Old Hodge glanced at Yale, who shook his head directly at Old Hodge. Only he knew how Yale's money came from. Is it someone else's money, or was it illegally used? If found out,
If you don't know how you died, it's worth taking the risk for yourself, but it's definitely not okay to take it for others.
When he looked at Li Jianzhang again, this guy made the same move as Yale. The Chinese Association could actually take out the money, but Li Jianzhang's suspicious character made him a little bit unable to trust these foreigners, especially the people from the Skull and Bones Society. He could go with Yale.
He can do things, but he can't do it when left to his own devices.
Li Cong looked at Old Hodge helplessly spreading his hands and knew that this old guy had given up. Others also saw that Old Hodge had given up. He would not let Skull and Bones fall into an economic crisis. Everything
We still have to obey the overall situation. The money that the Skull and Bones Society can provide seems to be about 4 trillion US dollars. Although we cannot fully know the potential of the Skull and Bones Society at this time, we can at least know about it.
"Then let's welcome our winner back with warm applause." At this time, the mysterious man already knew that he had won. When Li Cong saw this guy standing at the door of the hall, he said loudly, this guy will be the future
Apart from Skull and Bones, he is his biggest partner in the past two years, but he still doesn’t know much about this guy.
The mysterious man trotted up to the podium very excitedly. Unfortunately, this kid was a little taller than Li Cong, so everyone looked as cute as an old man leading a son.
"To be honest, sir, I know most of the people here very well, but I don't know you at all. I believe that everyone has the same idea as me. I wonder if you can tell me
Shall we introduce you?" Li Cong asked this guy directly. It's better for this guy to be more detailed. Otherwise, most people who don't know the details will think that this guy was arranged by himself. You need to know that this is not the case.
Everyone has the brains of old Hodge.
The mysterious man glanced at Li Cong with some doubts. He originally thought that he was here to handle the handover with him, but he didn't expect that he didn't mention that at all when he came up. He just asked about his origins. But it doesn't matter now, just tell him.
, I will also show up in the world in the future, my family has been hiding for hundreds of years.
The mysterious man took off his hat, which surprised Li Cong. This guy turned out to be an Asian. He looked like he should be Chinese. How could he be in South America and have such a huge wealth?
The mysterious man took the microphone from Li Cong's hand and stepped forward to stand in front of everyone. He may have been thinking about this scene in his mind for a long time, but today is reality, so he is inevitably a little nervous.
"Everyone, I know that everyone is very interested in my identity." This guy spoke fluent Chinese.
"I am a Chinese. To be precise, I am from the Ming Dynasty. My surname is Zhu. I belong to the royal family of a dynasty in Chinese history. My name is Zhu Ran. I gave this name to myself. If the Ming Dynasty were still there,
If so, I think my name will definitely not be that simple, and it can only be that simple now." This guy choked up a little when he said this. It's no wonder that no matter how rich he is now, he has been living abroad for so many years.
In the past, I was considered a member of the royal family.
"If you are familiar with Chinese history, you will definitely know that the most famous emperor of the Ming Dynasty was Emperor Yongli. Mr. Li must be very clear about this." When this guy said it himself, he did not forget to mention Li Cong.
"Yes, Emperor Yongli is one of the emperors I respect. You may not know much about him, but everyone should know the story of Zheng He's voyages to the West. This happened during the reign of Emperor Yongli."
Li had no choice but to play a supporting role, trying his best to cooperate with this guy so that he could reveal his secrets quickly.
"My ancestor is the youngest son of Emperor Yongli. Although my ancestor was the emperor of China back then, after Zheng He went abroad, he understood that the world is actually very big. Or now I say that my ancestor knew that the earth was round at that time.
, you may not believe it, but that’s the truth. Otherwise, how could I go to a place like South America? I know these are things you don’t want to hear, but this is my history, and you may be interested in me.
That’s why I have so much money, right?” This guy seemed to be an excellent speaker and was so captivating.
Some people below couldn't help but curse, who wants to listen to your story? What do you think you are doing now? Are you still a descendant of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty? The Ming Dynasty has been disintegrated for I don't know how many years. Do you still remember it?
?If it weren't for the face of the money, we would be full and full waiting for you to tell us about your family history. Anyone here can find a few prominent ancestors if they search up their origins.
Li Cong also nodded, and then the guy continued.
"Part of my money was brought out by my ancestors back then. I don't know how much it was, but I know that China's GDP was more than half of the world's at that time, and the tax collected by our royal family was 1/5
First, it took decades to accumulate so much. As for the things mentioned in history textbooks about the emperor having no money, it would never happen. In feudal society, everything was decided by the emperor. He would have no money.
Is that so? I can be sure that the money my ancestors took away is definitely the largest property in the entire Yongli Emperor. Of course, this property may only be tens of billions of dollars now, but the money is in the hands of people.
It's portable. After so many years of development, I have so much money." After this guy finished speaking, he stopped talking. No one would tell all his or her background at once.
Although he didn't continue talking, Li Cong seemed to understand a lot of things. This guy must have made a war fortune. He made a war fortune just like the Americans, whether it was the colonial wars or the world wars.
, South America always seems to have nothing to do with war. Americans relied on World War II to earn the wealth of the entire world at once. He followed the Americans and drank a lot of porridge. Look at the current wealth of the Skull and Bones Society.
You can basically get the right number by looking at this guy.
"Let us thank Mr. Zhu for his wonderful speech. I declare this auction to be a successful conclusion. I wish everyone a good night and see you at our energy group headquarters tomorrow." Li Cong saw that this guy didn't want to continue talking, so he immediately ended the conversation.
At an auction, everyone in the audience didn't want to leave. Why didn't they stop talking when they were willing to listen? Wouldn't this cost people's lives?
The royal family of the Ming Dynasty? At this time, Li Jianzhang remembered that his family had recorded this matter, but the family was not very sure at the time. Moreover, this matter was not handled by the Li family within the Chinese Association, and the Chinese Association was not that big at the time.
The forces just knew about this and transported a lot of gold and silver, but I don't know the exact amount. It seems that Li Cong really found a treasure.
Yale and Old Hodge, one walking fast and the other walking slowly, finally came together.
"Is this guy's story credible?" Yale asked casually, as if he didn't touch his lips at all, but still greeted the others warmly, but Old Hodge heard this sentence clearly.
"It's the same whether you believe it or not. The world will not be so peaceful." Old Hodge looked a little unhappy. This guy is in South America, which has always been his backyard. The funny thing is that he has no news at all.
I don’t know, it’s really embarrassing, and losing the competition with this guy also makes me lose face, so he doesn’t really want to talk to Yale. If Yale just fully supported him, how could he let that kid on the podium?
To talk about such nonsense.
"Of course there will be no peace. If Li Cong forms an alliance with this guy, that will be the most difficult thing to do. Your backyard is on fire. I wonder if you need our help." Yale said gloatingly, talking to the Skull and Bones Society.
The alliance contract has not been signed yet, so now we can take the opportunity to modify some conditions. Anyway, the Skull and Bones Society will have to deal with this guy directly after returning. If Li Cong also takes the opportunity to attack at that time, if he does not help, the Skull and Bones Society will be attacked from both sides and it will be even worse.
Yes, now my status has risen with the appearance of this guy.
"Little Yale, didn't Old White teach you? Before looking at others, you should check your own first. I don't think the Roy family is easy to deal with. Do you want us to help you?" Old Hodge naturally wouldn't.
I gave Yale the opportunity to amend the treaty, but I was blocked here. I'm afraid it won't be so easy for you there. There is also a tiger crawling in your backyard, and it may get up and bite people at any time.
Yale's face twitched, and he walked out of the auction hall at this time. Someone came over and led the two of them to rest directly. Otherwise, there is no telling how long the two of them would have quarreled.
"President, our people are counting that batch of gold and silver. It seems that we are definitely the owners of the largest gold reserves in the world." No. 1 reported to Li Cong.
"Yeah, I think it's almost enough to build a house with gold now. But this transaction must be kept strictly confidential. We only need to say to the outside world that we only received 10,000 tons of gold. Otherwise, such a huge pile of gold would be enough."
If we find out, then the price of gold will plummet tomorrow." Li Cong suddenly thought of a very serious problem. If it really fell, he would suffer heavy losses. (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome
