The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Manoban's Pampered Wife Book 4

Chapter 734: Auction (5)

A Chen Xiang Buddhist bracelet?

Seulgi's eyes widened as he heard the term from Lisa.

"From the looks of the color, it should be worth at least $2 million," Lisa spoke again as he looked at the photos on the screen.

"Seriously? Which idiot is selling this? Shouldn't this be kept as a collection?" Seulgi felt heartbroken for it.

As expected, there was a huge reaction from the crowd when the auctioneer introduced this bracelet.

Most of the middle-aged population were Buddhists. As their positions got higher and their salaries started to grow, they were more inclined to believe in religion and fengshui

.

The same applied to Hae Sook as well. She would light up some incense every morning and pray for the family's safety.

"The starting price for this bracelet is $2 million. Each bid must be no less than $30,000. The bidding starts now!"

Just as Lisa predicted.

"$2.1 million!"

"$2.3 million!"

"$2.5 million!"

...

The value of an item that was auctioned could go up several times of its original price, and it could go up even further for rare items like this.

After a round of bidding, the bid reached $4 million. The bids were getting fewer. Since this was only the first item and more were coming out later, the crowd planned to wait for the other items.

"$4.5 million! This sir over here is offering $4.5 million. Is there anyone else? $4.5 million, once!"

"$4.5 million, twice!"

"$4.5 million..."

"$5 million."

Right before the auctioneer made the final call, Lisa glanced at Bambam and he quickly took action.

The auctioneer was overjoyed. No one else made a higher bid, so Lisa won the Buddhist bracelet.

"That's some good stuff, but I remember that you're not a believer, and I don't think you're a collector, are you?" Seulgi gave Lisa an odd glance.

Lisa did not reply and just returned the glance. Then, Seulgi shrugged.

The second item up for auction was a golden plate embedded with many different jewels. It was a very valuable collector's item. A collector bought it at the price of $7 million.

After some cheering, the auctioneer smiled. "It seems like the auction this time is getting more fired up than the last one. Next up, let's have our third item of the day!"

Under a blue spotlight, an exquisite pen was presented on stage.

Seulgi was shocked because he had seen this pen before!

He stared at the pen for a few moments before looking at Lisa. "This is what you mean by something interesting? It's a huge risk! Wouldn't you have wasted it if that person didn't come? How are you going to explain it to Yeji?"

"This is why I wanted you to come."

Lisa had a creepy and wicked smile on his face!

Seulgi finally understood his plan, and he almost punched him as he started yelling at him, "What the hell!? You cunning fox! No wonder you were so nice to go for a sauna and massage with me. This is what you planned! How sinister! I'm ashamed as a fellow businessman! You bastard!"

Lisa smiled elegantly and took a sip of tea. "There's nothing to worry about. I had someone appraise this pen. The sapphire embedded on it is worth more than the Buddhist bracelet just now."

Seulgi thought to himself before concluding, "So, what you're saying is that the man who gave this to Aunty Zixi must be a rich person! A small gift like this costs several million. We'll be able to find out who is it if we can confirm that he's in City B!"

"I didn't put in so much effort and benefits for the De Bao Trading auction for nothing. Hopefully, we can limit the scope to City B. After trying to find that man for so many years without any clue, that man is purposely making it difficult to sniff him out."

"Let's hope that we can get to him this time. It's starting soon! Look!" Seulgi patted his shoulder before sitting back down. "I'm going to say this upfront. This is nearly a whole year's worth of my expenses at Imperial Sky Entertainment City. You'd better give me a gold card for free!"

"Since when have you and Moonbyul ever paid when you guys were there?" Lisa replied calmly.

Seulgi shrugged. "Fine, whatever!"

The auctioneer finished the introduction, announcing the starting bid at $2 million as well. Bambam was watching everyone who placed their bids carefully.

"$3.7 million! Anyone offering higher than this?"

"$4 million!" It was a woman's voice. Lisa looked over at the voice source, and saw that it was Miyeon!

There was a short silence afterward as someone else then yelled, "$4.1 million!"

"$4.5 million!" Miyeon sounded determined.

Lisa's gaze turned sharp as he glanced over at each and every corner from where the voices placing the bids came from.

"$4.6 million!" The man who placed the earlier bid before continued.

"$5 million!" Miyeon seemed determined to get this pen as she was gunning her bids aggressively.

"What is Miyeon doing? Could she know that this pen was Suho's? Or is she a collector herself? This is insane!"

Seulgi frowned as he looked at the booth where Miyeon was at in confusion.

In contrast, Lisa did not seem very affected. He looked like he was deep in thought as his grip on the teacup tightened.

"Lis, it's $5 million now. Should we do something?" Seulgi looked at Lisa anxiously.

"Wait just a little bit more." Lisa came back to his senses and looked down. "The person who gave her this pen must know the true origins of it. I'm sure he's wondering how the pen appeared here."

Seulgi nodded in agreement.
