At this moment, Zhou Guangcai's face was also pale. He did not expect that the competition for the bronze gourd would be so difficult, and that he would even meet such a troublesome character like Zhao Yuanshan.
"Your grandfather's condition is already very serious, this bronze gourd is very important to him, we must take down this bronze gourd."
Zhou Feng frowned and said after some hesitation.
Not to mention that the bronze gourd might not be able to cure my grandfather's illness, even if it can, it would still require a large amount of funds from our Zhou Family to buy it. Zhao Yuanshan looks as if he's determined to win, for my Zhou Family to be able to obtain at least a billion bronze gourd, or even more than a billion. "
"Even Zhao Yuanshan could tell that the Zhou family's bottom line is six hundred million, but as the Zhou family's patriarch, can't you see that? Once we spend one billion to buy the bronze gourd, all of the Zhou Family's business will become very difficult to manage. The risk involved is simply too great, almost all of the Zhou Family's future prospects are being exchanged for Grandfather's few years of lifespan. Furthermore, this bronze gourd might not be able to cure Grandfather's disease, so you must think carefully. "
Zhou Guangcai frowned, he understood the logic behind Zhou Feng's words, but was he supposed to just watch his old father die in front of his eyes?
Just as he was in a dilemma, his phone rang. It was Zhou Peisheng.
Zhou Guangcai said to Zhou Peisheng who was on the other end of the phone: "Dad, don't worry, no matter what, I will buy the bronze gourd for you today."
However, a simple sound came from the other end of the phone.
"Give up."
Before Zhou Guangcai could reply, the call was cut off.
Zhou Peisheng who was sitting in the hall of Zhou Mansion watching the live broadcast hung up the phone. In an instant, he had aged a lot.
Does he want the bronze gourd? The answer was yes, but he could not do so. The Zhou family had four to five billion yuan in assets, but they were all industrial companies, and 1 billion in cash was a huge amount of capital for the Zhou family. It was enough to stop the Zhou family's capital flow, and several companies could not operate normally.
The Zhou family was not only Zhou Peisheng's blood and sweat, it was also the blood and sweat of the Zhou family's ancestors. Zhou Peisheng absolutely could not let the Zhou family be destroyed by him.
Therefore, he resolutely chose to give up on auctioning the bronze gourd.
After Zhou Peisheng hung up the phone, his entire person seemed to be in a somewhat dejected state. Looking at Zhao Yuanshan at his side, his eyes were filled with resentment, but in the end, he did not continue to raise the price.
Everyone was silent.
Zhao Yuanshan's price of 800 million was just too high of a price. Even the ten great families in the provincial capital of Jiang Prefecture wouldn't be able to come up with such a huge sum of money so easily.
The Zhou family's concern was also their concern. Once the group's capital chain was broken, it would not only be a few hundred million dollars worth of losses, but it would also bring the entire group down.
Therefore, no one raised the bid again.
Within his plans, he only needed to auction off three hundred million bronze gourd. However, now that there were eight hundred million, even if no one continued to raise the price, the price would already be astronomical.
His eyes almost cracked with laughter.
"800 million going once."
"800 million times."
"Eight hundred million."
"Thud."
Finally, the small hammer in Zhou Yuan's hand slammed heavily onto the auction stage. The transaction had finally been completed.
Zhao Yuanshan's eyes surged with a pleased look. Today, he had finally taken the spotlight, even though 800 million was a huge number, but to him, it was not enough to hurt his bones.
Today, he and his group had made a name for themselves throughout the country.
Eight hundred million was enough to buy Shang Zhou's Bronze grade magical equipment. Such a stunt was enough to make the Jiang Nan Yuan Shan Group famous throughout the country. This advertising effect was worth at least five hundred million.
If he were to pass the bronze gourd to a certain leader, in the future, the government's resources would all be shifted towards the Far Mountain Group and he would be able to earn back 800 million in a year or two.
He wouldn't lose anything.
Thinking about it, Zhao Yuanshan smiled widely.
Chen Yao, who was seated a short distance away, helplessly shook his head and softly said.
thought that just because he was rich that it was insufferable, but unexpectedly, at the same time that the bronze gourd brought him fame, it also brought him a calamity that will kill him.
"What's wrong?"
Li Mengran looked at Chen Yao in a daze.
Chen Yao whispered.
"It's better that you, as a girl, don't know about the matters of the martial arts world. Let's go, the auction has already ended. There might be some unsafe matters coming up, so I might as well send you home first."
"Yes."
Although Li Mengran still had some doubts in his heart, he did not want to leave an annoying impression on Chen Yao, so he did not say anything more in the end.
"Let's go."
When the bronze gourd landed in Zhao Yuanshan's hands, the auction officially ended. All the cameras turned off and the audience left, Chen Yao and Li Mengran walked out of the Scene Hall hand in hand.
During this time, many famous figures from the Jiangbei City took the initiative to greet Chen Yao. The name of the divine doctor Chen had already resounded throughout the upper echelons of Jiangbei, and it was impossible for some of the more prestigious people in Jiangbei to not recognize Chen Yao. In addition to today's live broadcast, the name of the divine doctor Chen was now considered as a household name in Jiangbei.
Today, Chen Yao became the biggest winner in the auction. This was something that even Chen Yao himself had not expected, so his mood was very comfortable.
From being poor to sitting on hundreds of millions of dollars in a single hour or two, even Chen Yao himself found it hard to believe.
"I'll take you home first.
Chen Yao looked at the time, it was already 9 o'clock, the Li Residence was not far from Jing Xiushan, it was a round trip of almost half an hour, and Zhao Yuanshan had already obtained the bronze gourd transformed from the Immortal Slaying Flying Daggers, but Zhou Yuan, the Ghost Master, Luo Yunsheng, and some other hidden forces would definitely snatch the Immortal Slaying Flying Daggers from Zhao Yuanshan's hands, and a fierce battle was inevitable.
Right now, Jing Xiushan was not a good place to rob others, so Chen Yao was sure that if Ghost Master and the rest wanted to take action, they would choose to do it on the way back to Jiangnan.
So the National Security Agency must have realized that Zhou Yuan was not just a simple merchant, but he also did not have any conclusive evidence, which was why he had arranged for Luo Qiu to approach Zhou Yuan. After this auction was over, the National Security Agency should have made a move to capture Zhou Yuan.
