Warnia looked at that person and said in a cold voice, “No. 173, if you make any more noise, I’ll have the staff expel you!”
Only then did the audience have the sense to keep their mouths shut.
Douglas also dared not think otherwise and immediately said firmly,
“I am willing to pay 210 billion! Please give me the phone number, I will arrange the payment now!”
Elnor broke down at once and hid his face in tears.
The staff immediately handed the cell phone to Douglas.
And Stella, inside the box, finally sighed with relief.
This auction, for her, was really full of ups and downs, close calls, but in the end, she was able to survive again.
She was really worried that her grandfather’s strength in business would come up and ruin the hand of survival.
Fortunately, the old man eventually overcame his impulse with reason.
She was afraid that her grandfather would pass away prematurely because then her family would completely lose their dependence.
Her eldest uncle would certainly not hesitate to expel her family right after the funeral.
And as long as grandpa survives, it’s an opportunity for her.
At this time, Douglas, deep inside, has also given up struggling.
Although the price was speculated by Conrad step by step to two hundred and eleven billion, causing him extreme flesh pain.
But compared to the ten to twenty years of life brought by the Rejuvenation Pill, it was worth it after all.
So, he took the cell phone handed to him by the staff and called his most trusted butler directly.
When the call was answered, he said: “Russel, immediately call the Swiss bank and tell them to transfer 200 billion to the auction house now,”
“And then notify some of our closest partners, so that they can quickly raise 10 billion dollars,”
“Promis them the highest interest rate in the industry,”
“And promise them that they will receive special care from our Fei family in the future, you must be fast!”
For Douglas, a big man with a fortune of nearly a trillion dollars,
It was easy to borrow ten billion dollars temporarily, as long as the words just released,
There is no telling how many people would knock their heads and rush to give him the money.
However, he did not expect that the person called Russel Cheng, at the other end of the phone remained silent for a moment, choked, and said,
“Master …… two hours ago, the youngest has activated the highest emergency plan of the board of directors,”
“The two hundred billion dollars that you had prepared, are all frozen ……”
“What did you …… you say?!”
Hearing these words, Douglas’s eyes went black and he almost fainted on the spot.
Fortunately, Karl held him by his side and pressed hard on his tiger mouth at the same time, which made him regain consciousness.
Immediately afterward, he asked loudly and angrily, “What qualifications does that ba5tard have to activate the board’s highest emergency plan?
Russel explained, “The Young Master called a meeting with all the directors and listed,”
“All the details of the Swiss bank account you meant to mobilize funds from……”
“He told the board that you prepared $200 billion with great fanfare just to buy a nebulous immortality pill ……”
“He believes that your sanity, because of your current health condition, has already experienced a great cognitive bias,”
“And if you continue to serve as chairman, it will cause significant financial losses to the group,”
“And it will pose a great crisis and risk to the group’s subsequent operations,”
“Which is why the highest emergency plan was activated ……”
