My Waste Husband -
Chapter 876
Chapter 876
The next morning, there was a traffic jam on the main road around Wulu City. Many luxury cars, which were usually difficult to see, blocked the road lined up like a long dragon.
On the main road around the museum, the government arranged hundreds of people to inspect each car. Only those who were qualified to attend the auction could continue driving to the museum, and those who were not qualified could only go back.
Such a rigorous investigation began at 7:30 a.m. and did not end until 11 o'clock in the afternoon. It was only two hours' time difference in Xin province. Otherwise, until people would get inside, it would be time for lunch.
Delsean and Breezy entered the museum together. The originally empty hall was now filled with people. Hundreds of seats were placed in the hall. Everyone looked for their seats and sat down.
Around the hall, there was one security guard at almost every meter. Any movement in the hall couldn't escape their attention. There were special waiters guiding every guest. It could be said that one couldn't walk freely after entering the hall. Even if one wanted to go to the toilet, there were professionals to accompany him. Unless one left here, he would be watched all the way.
"Brother, do you think that Henry will be able to grab the tripod from here?" Breezy looked around. As for the security situation in the museum, she didn't even dare to think about stealing the tripod.
"Since I've hired Mr. Zhang, I should believe him. Let's go and sit down."
Delsean and Breezy sat down. After a while, Mahmoud, who had appeared yesterday, sat down beside Breezy and whispered to her, "Breezy, I have already arranged it. I have invited fourteen masters from the Top Ranking List this time, and one of them is an absolute powerhouse that ranks 21st on the Top Ranking List!"
"Twenty-first!"
Upon hearing this, Breezy couldn't help but tremble and open her mouth wide. The Top Ranking List represented the top masters in the whole China. What kind of strength did the 21 st master have?
Seeing Breezy's reaction, Mahmoud smiled with satisfaction and said in a low voice, "So, Breezy, don't worry. I'll help you snatch it. As for that guy surnamed Zhang, I'll help you expose him!"
"Nice." Breezy nodded hard.
Delsean and others came late. Not long after they sat down, the hall was almost full. Among the guests who came, Delsean saw many familiar faces. They were all big shots in the business world, not only from their country but also from foreign countries.
After all, this tripod was too famous. It was the same as the Simuwu Tripod. Although it did not represent so much, it was extremely precious.
However, Delsean looked around, but he didn't find the person he was looking for.
"It's strange. Why can't I see Mr. Zhang?" Delsean murmured subconsciously.
"Brother, do you really expect that person to come?" Breezy's face was full of disdain. "A man who doesn't even know about the Top Ranking List. How can he take away the tripod in such a situation? I don't think you should have high hope for him!"
Mahmoud also said, "Brother Delsean, don't blame me for talking too much. That Zhang guy isn't as powerful as you think. You're probably focused on business and don't know much about this system. Last night, I went back to ask some friends from the Top Ranking List. I've never heard of anyone named Henry Zhang."
Delsean opened his mouth and was about to say something when he heard a voice coming from the centre of the museum.
"Welcome all friends from all walks of life to Wulu City!"
There was a high platform in front of the museum. Under the platform, there was a man holding a microphone.
On the second floor of the museum, there was a lounge.
Yachim laid on a large leather sofa with a goblet in his hand. The wine in the goblet was of premium quality. He shook the goblet from time to time with a smile on his face.
"Boss, we have found out that there are many people outside. They call themselves experts from the Top Ranking List." A Sandsea Bandit came in front of Yachim and whispered.
"The Top Ranking List?" Yachim's face was full of disdain. "They're just some tricks made by third- rate forces. Are they serious? How dare they claim to be on the Top Ranking List?!"
"Boss, should we go out and take care of them?" The bandit had a fierce look on his face.
"Take care of them? Why should we take care of them?" Yachim's face was full of doubts. "We've already entrusted the tripod to other people. Even if they have any idea about taking the tripod, it doesn't have anything to do with us. The one who bought it is responsible for it."
"Boss, you're so wise!" The bandit complimented.
"All right, you can go out. After today, our good days will start. We don't have to stay in the damn desert anymore." Yachim waved his hand and then leaned on the back of the sofa gracefully. He closed his eyes and listened to the voice coming from outside the lounge. The auction had begun, and the starting price of the tripod was one hundred million yuan!
The bidding kept rising, which was extremely fierce. Yachim shook the goblet in his hand, and his face was full of pleasure.
In this world, there was never a lack of rich people, but a lack of imagination.
While the auction was in full swing, many people were guessing how much the final bidding price would be.
Some said it would be around 500 million yuan. Some said that it would be around 10 billion yuan. Some said that it would be 15 billion yuan.
In the end, however, there was a huge gap between the final price and these speculations.
At that time, a piece of oil painting had been sold for 300 million yuan. This tripod, which was made in the Shang Dynasty, was much more valuable.
"42 billion!"
All the people present were completely shocked by the figure.
In the lounge, Yachim laughed so hard that he could not close his mouth. From the way he subconsciously crushed the goblet in his hand, it could be seen how excited he was.
42 billion yuan! 42 billion yuan! This amount of 42 billion yuan was not in fixed assets or bank credit. It was all in cash. It was a huge sum of money that could not be spent for a lifetime!
Delsean, who was sitting on the auction seat, watched the auctioneer throw the hammer. The tripod was sold, which was the end of the auction.
"Brother, I was right. The man surnamed Zhang didn't dare to do it at all. How could he take the tripod away under these circumstances? He didn't even dare to come!" Breezy said.
Delsean sat there in a daze, watching the buyer who offered 42 billion yuan, step onto the stage.
