Little Rockefeller pondered for a moment, then shook his head. He still had more than 36,000 gold coins in his hand. Maybe that man was also pretending?
The look on his young master's face was seen in the old housekeeper's eyes. The latter secretly shook his head and wriggled his lips twice, but in the end he still did not utter any words of advice.
"Maybe the person in the box is facing the same problem as me at the moment. Yes, that must be the case. I can't mess up."
Little Rockefeller seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be explaining to the people around him. He still had one sentence he didn't say, which was that he couldn't let his so-called friends see the joke.
The old housekeeper smiled and said nothing, unable to tell his inner thoughts at all.
"31,000 gold coins."
When bidding on the price, Rockefeller Jr. hesitated for a moment, but in the end only added one thousand gold coins.
He doesn't have many gold coins in his hand, so he has to use them carefully. Maybe he just wants this battle to last longer, so as to give him enough time to weigh the pros and cons.
Witnessing this scene, the old butler sighed in his heart. At this time, he was still so hesitant. How could he act like he was doing something big? In the position of the other party, he would either give up decisively and send the person in the box to the other.
Favors may bring unexpected rewards in the future, or one should use all-or-nothing momentum and decisively put all the bets on it, letting the person understand that even if he finally wins the blueprint, he will have to pay an extremely heavy price.
It is said that ginger is still hotter than old. If Wang Hao heard the old man's thoughts, he would definitely be amazed.
"It seems that this noble gentleman doesn't have much money in his wallet. Hehe, it seems that he can still save a little."
Judging from the actions of the other party's constant bidding, if it were not for the lack of funds, the other party would not only increase the price by one thousand, thus weakening his own momentum. This is naturally good news for Wang Hao.
The monkey couldn't help but rolled his eyes when he heard this, "Do you think everyone is as rich as you, a pervert? I still can't imagine how you earned such a huge sum of money. Could it be robbing a bank or cheating?"
Kidnapping?"
Facing the monkey's suspicious gaze, Wang Hao couldn't help but feel guilty. Theoretically speaking, the source of the money was indeed not legitimate.
However, it is reasonable to exist. Since the game officials have not held him accountable, then what he did is at best just exploiting a loophole in the system. Even if he doesn't do it, someone else will do it in the future.
Rather than taking advantage of others, it is better to take advantage of yourself.
Banishing the slight embarrassment in his heart, Wang Hao refreshed his quotation again.
"35,000 gold coins."
Looking at the prices refreshed on the screen, little Rockefeller felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His handsome face suddenly turned as pale as snow. He took a hard breath and placed his fingers on the quote button with a slightly trembling finger. The extremely simple shame
It is so difficult to hold back at this moment.
He made two mistakes in operation, and his expression became more and more restless.
"Master, why don't you give up this bidding? Maybe there will be better items later."
In the end, the old butler couldn't help but persuade him. His words were naturally mostly comforting. He knew how precious the artifact was. It was extremely rare for it to appear once in a century auction, let alone a second one.
The old man's words caused little Rockefeller to fall into a brief thought. After a long time, he took a long breath. Although his face was still a little pale, he completely calmed down.
"Master..." When the old housekeeper saw the changes in his young master, there was a hint of relief in his eyes. He was about to open his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by the other party waving his hand.
"I'm going to visit some old friends. With my face, it's unlikely that others will borrow ten thousand or twenty thousand gold coins, but I believe one or two thousand gold coins shouldn't be a problem. Each person has one or two thousand gold coins, which adds up to nearly ten thousand."
Gold coins, if it still doesn’t work, then I’ll give up.”
After saying this, Rockefeller Jr. seemed to feel a lot more relaxed. He had indeed shown too much worry about gains and losses before. As long as he tried his best, even if he lost, there would be nothing to regret.
In this fierce price war, both the audience and the bald eagle hosting the auction showed great patience and did not become irritable because of the boring wait.
On the contrary, Rockefeller Jr.'s calm attitude without any expression was actually an attitude. Since he did not admit defeat, he was naturally preparing for a full war.
This made many players have a strong sense of expectation. In comparison, just waiting for a short time is naturally not a big deal.
"Here, please eat some more fruits, which are not available in the market."
The beauty rubbed her little face that was almost wrinkled, with a look of embarrassment on her face. The company intended to give the other party a little time to raise funds, but it gave her the task of appeasing the person in the box, which made her
I couldn't help but feel a headache.
Of course, Century Auction House, as the organizer, cannot be too obvious. The old butler is still bidding, but the amount of each bid is smaller and it takes more time.
However, offending a big customer like Wang Hao is not what they want to see, so it is logical to give Wang Hao a certain degree of compensation.
Meimei came here with the task of negotiation, and the amount of compensation is the issue this time.
"Basically, the company's biggest concession is to increase your VIP privileges to level four. In addition, you can get a 10% discount on the cost of renting an imperial box next time you come."
There was no tit-for-tat or verbal sparring, and there was no need for Wang Hao and others to ask for details. Meimei stated the compensation that the company could provide without reservation.
Facing the doubtful looks of Wang Hao and others, the girl smiled sweetly. She clenched her pink hands into fists and waved them slightly, "Teach that white-nosed boy a lesson and let them know how powerful we are."
Wang Hao and others immediately showed a knowing smile. Regardless of whether what the other party said was true or false, he recognized the favor.
Fortunately, little Rockefeller did not keep everyone present waiting for too long. His face was not very good at the moment. Although he thought he was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but get angry when he heard those people's sarcastic remarks.
.
"Master, how was the harvest?" the old housekeeper asked with concern.
"So-so. It's about as expected. I found seven or eight people, and five of them lent me a sum of money for emergency use, almost eight thousand gold coins." Thinking of the experience just now, little Rockefeller's voice couldn't help but contain a trace of it.
With a look of resentment. "Forget it. It's not easy to get game gold coins now. Borrowing too much and paying it back later will be a hassle."
Until now, he could only comfort himself in this way.
"40,000 gold coins."
When little Rockefeller was operating, his hand shook and he almost pressed an extra zero. It would be even more embarrassing if he couldn't get the money out by then.
Humph, I have lost such a big face in my circle of friends. I can't make you feel too comfortable. He looked up at the empty box above his head, and a stern look flashed in his eyes.
This time, it was Wang Hao's turn to stop laughing.
He glanced around the people in the box, and finally set his sights on Perry. The latter instinctively felt a little uneasy, and shrank back from the wall, looking at Wang Hao with a wary expression.
"How about a business deal with you?"
Wang Hao walked up to Perry and said in an extremely gentle voice.
"What business?"
As long as it was about making money, Pelli was interested. Although his face still remained alert at this time, his tone was somewhat relaxed, "Did you come up with another good idea and want to do it again?"
ticket?"
Thinking of the excitement, Paili's voice suddenly became louder, causing others around him to look at him with suspicion.
For example, York and others, although they did not come close, they quietly pricked up their ears, obviously very interested in what was happening here.
"Ahem." Wang Hao's face was a little unnatural. He looked around and lowered his voice and said: "Lend me ten or twenty thousand gold coins. I will pay you back after a period of time, and you can calculate the interest."
Borrowing money from his own servant is a failure as a master.
But other than that, Wang Hao really had no other solution. Among the people he knew, this timid and greedy attendant was the richest.
"Borrow money?" Paley's voice suddenly raised ten degrees, the expression on his face was like being cut off, and then his head shook like a rattle, "No, not even with interest. Lord Paley has never borrowed money.
A habit for others.”
The lethality of Pelli's voice was so astonishing that it instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the box, making Wang Hao's face become even more ugly.
"I am your master, can't I just borrow some money from you?"
Paley nodded solemnly and looked at Wang Hao with an idiotic expression, "Private property is inviolable. This is clearly stipulated in the constitutions of various countries. Even if you are the master, you cannot infringe on the property of your subordinates."
Wang Hao was exhausted for a while. If he hadn't been worried about the presence of other people, he would have had the urge to kick this guy away, but he thought of the need to beg him next, so he endured it.
"I said, treat it as if I lent it to you, and I will give you generous interest."
Pelli was furious when he heard the other party said that he was the borrower. He didn't pay attention to what the other party said later. After listening to it, there was a trace of hesitation on his face, "It's not impossible to borrow money."
Discuss, what are the mortgage items and how is the interest calculated?"
After saying this, he took out an abacus made of gold like a magic trick, and it crackled, obviously showing his proficiency in the business.
Everyone in the box looked at this strange pair of master and servant, with their mouths wide open, looking in disbelief.
It's really weird.
"Mortgage?" Wang Hao muttered in his heart. It was not that he had no mortgage items. Those property certificates were the most suitable props. However, he doubted whether it was possible to get these things back if they fell into the hands of the other party, so he tried it out.
: "You know my abilities. I definitely have the ability to repay money. Last time... I made so much, you should believe it, right?"
Thinking of his last action, it was indeed the most enjoyable experience in his career. He easily earned tens of thousands of gold coins.
Pelli nodded and reluctantly accepted Wang Hao's words. He picked up the gold abacus in his hand and started fiddling with it quickly, "Borrow 20,000 gold coins, monthly interest 2,000 gold coins, mental loss fee 500, youth compensation fee 500, investment fee 100
, the storage fee...the total amount is exactly five thousand gold coins. If there is no problem, we can sign the contract now."
Everyone in the box was instantly petrified. The moment they regained consciousness, they had only one thought in their minds, it was dark, it was too dark.
"I can still accept the monthly interest of 2,000 gold coins. But what's going on with the mental damage fee, youth compensation fee, and other messy charges?" Wang Hao was very annoyed. This month is the interest of 5,000 gold coins.
, if this huge sum of money is not repaid in two or three months, the amount of money will double, and loan sharking is nothing more than that.
Pelley looked disapproving. He clapped his fingers and explained: "Mental damages, you know, money is my lifeblood. Lending you money is equivalent to cutting off my flesh. Give me a little."
A small amount of compensation is not an exaggeration. As for the loss of youth, once people are in a bad mood, they will grow old quickly. If I lend you such a large sum of money, I will not be able to sleep or eat well every day, so I have to pay more.
Go up, there is an investment fee, this..."
Paili's eloquence is not just a boast. He can find some far-fetched reasons for some random charges. Although Wang Hao had a hundred words to refute the other party, the former just kept a straight face and said, "Do you want to borrow it or not?"
With an expression on his face, Wang Hao felt discouraged.
Seeing that the bald eagle on the exhibition stand below had made its first offer, Wang Hao hesitated for a moment, and finally bit his toothpick and signed the usury contract.
Meimei and others stared at the master and servant with extremely different expressions, their heads were spinning. They just borrowed 20,000 gold coins, and the interest was as high as 5,000 gold coins. Especially when a player borrowed money from his NPC attendant?
What exactly is this fuss about?
With the 20,000 gold coins supported by Perry, Wang Hao can currently mobilize up to 60,000 gold coins. I believe that there should be no problem in obtaining this artifact-level ship map.
The moment he pressed the bidding button and watched the numbers on the screen jumping rapidly, he couldn't help but wonder, was it worth paying such a high price for an artifact-level ship map?
If this money is injected into St. England and the Four Seas Guild, will greater value be created?
Wang Hao thought about it carefully and finally shook his head. In his opinion, spending 60,000 gold coins to get this legendary design is definitely a very cost-effective thing. You must know that gold coins are easy to earn, but the legendary design
Shipbuilding blueprints are too rare.
And as long as he builds this legendary ship, it is really not too difficult for him to make back his capital.
The stronger the players, the more opportunities they have to make money, and it is the same no matter which game they play.
The overseas world is a huge treasure that has not yet been developed. As long as...then the current investment can be earned back tenfold or a hundredfold.
"42,000 gold coins."
Bald Eagle looked at the numbers on the screen and was distracted for a while. Soon he had the urge to look up to the sky and laugh. He believed that the current price was enough to shut up many people who had doubts about his professional ability.
"The VIP in the Imperial Box No. 1 bid 42,000 gold coins. I have a hunch that the destined master of this legendary ship design is about to appear. Work harder, maybe this person is you!"
During the period of silence in the Imperial Box No. 1, Rockefeller Jr. almost thought that Goddess of Luck had taken care of him again, allowing him to win this inestimable legendary ship design in one fell swoop.
It was a pity that the jumping numbers on the big screen made him wake up from his dream.
Just a little bit different!
Judging from the other party's performance just now, it is obvious that the funds are unsustainable. However, at the last moment, a sum of funds was dismantled from nowhere. And he asked the old housekeeper to inquire about it, but everyone in the circle was confused about this.
I know nothing.
Is it that you and others are ignorant, or is the other party too mysterious?
"44,500 gold coins."
After the bidding indicator light came on, little Rockefeller stood up from his seat and looked unabashedly at the imperial box above his head.
Although Rockefeller Jr. did not say it clearly, everyone saw another meaning from his reaction. This was obviously his final blow.
Then a question arose in the minds of the audience: Does the person above have any extra money?
"Congratulations, Mouse."
"Congratulations, King."
"You are the best, brother."
Everyone has gathered around to congratulate Wang Hao in advance.
After Wang Hao borrowed 20,000 gold coins from Pelli, they became slightly excited and guessed the outcome. However, until the incident actually happened in front of their eyes, they could no longer restrain their excitement and excitement.
Wang Hao accepted everyone's congratulations with a smile, and after thinking about it, he concluded the auction.
"45,000 gold coins."
He didn't deliberately show off his wealth, nor did he deliberately humiliate the other party. Wang Hao added five hundred gold coins to give the other party some face.
This is very puzzling to Monkey and others. It is difficult for them to accept that something that can be solved with ten gold coins still costs dozens of times more gold coins.
Wang Hao smiled and didn't answer. To put it bluntly, this kind of thing was nothing. Since he had spent 45,000 gold coins, why would he offend a powerful man with astonishing strength for these hundreds of gold coins.
Some people may say that Wang Hao has already offended the other party, so why worry about offending the other party more?
That is not the case. If Wang Hao had not shown astonishing financial resources, then his behavior might have been a provocation in the eyes of Rockefeller Jr. and others. But now that the strength he has shown is even greater, then it can
Treat this price war as a level playing field.
There are winners and losers in competition, but there is no distinction between friend and foe. If he ends up adding insult to injury, that would be another story. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
