He knew that he had already lost.
Even if he continued to call for the price, when he couldn’t pay, he would only be left with a bamboo basket.
Moreover, at that time, he might be ridiculed by the whole audience.
And he, at this moment, also knew that he was already dying.
Continue to struggle, but also in vain, and lose the last trace of dignity.
Frustrated, he waved his hand and did not continue to open his mouth to call for bids.
Then, he buried his head deeply, forcing himself to accept the reality that his time was up.
Karl on the side was also overwhelmed with emotions.
He wanted to comfort Douglas, but he didn’t know how to do so for a while.
So, he could only gently pat Douglas’s back and whisper,
“Elder Fei, in your current state of health, don’t get emotional!”
Douglas gently nodded his head, but his heart was still in pain.
Conrad looked at Douglas’s back and let out a long sigh, chanting softly, “Uncle Fei, I’m sorry ……”
Inside the second-floor box, Stella was already in tears,
And the makeup on her face, which had been slightly powdered, had been melted away by her tears.
At this moment, she deeply knows, her grandfather’s heart is not great.
And she herself, heartbroken grandfather at the same time, can not help but be full of sorrow.
Because she also knew that the Rejuvenation Pill was now so expensive that even the entire Fei family’s cash reserves were not enough to buy it,
In this case, what was the little favor she had given to Charlie?
So, what could one do to beg Charlie to give grandpa one, or even half a Rejuvenation Pill?
Charlie in an auction earned three hundred billion dollars, just take out a hundred million dollars, can also repay all their favors dozens of times ……
And at this time in the monitoring room, Charlie also felt some shock.
Two hundred and twenty billion dollars, this is an astounding fortune,
But this Conrad, who has the declared capital of only one hundred billion dollars, what is his true identity?
At this time, Warnia on the scene started the last three inquiries as usual.
After the last three times no one raised their bids, she excitedly dropped the hammer and loudly announced,
“Congratulations to No. 099, for successfully winning the only rejuvenation pill in this room with a price of 220 billion dollars!”
As soon as the words fell, No. 099 Conrad slowly stood up, looked at Warnia, and said in a loud voice:
“Miss Song, I know that the owner of the Rejuvenation Pill must be watching everything,”
“And whatever is happening here somewhere at this moment,”
“And I would like to take this opportunity to negotiate a business deal with him!”
Faced with Conrad’s unorthodox behavior, Warnia didn’t know how to answer at once.
After all, this was a $220 billion golden master,”
“Surely she couldn’t just throw him out because he didn’t follow the discipline, right?
Just as Warnia was hesitating, Conrad looked at one of the surveillance probes and said in a loud voice,
“As long as you let me take this rejuvenation pill away, I can pay you three hundred billion dollars!”
