Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Brower's smile faded, replaced by a chilling demeanor.
"What conditions? It's impossible. If you're here for the Divine Bone Order, you can leave now," Brower replied with a stern expression.
"How about one billion dollars? I believe the value of one billion dollars far exceeds that of the Divine Bone Order. Since you possess the Divine Bone Order, you should understand that its significance isn't that great," Jiang Chen said, hoping to resolve the matter with money.
"One billion dollars?" Brower's expression shifted slightly, a hint of surprise crossing his face. After all, he was a businessman and had some knowledge of Huaxia. To be honest, in such a vast Huaxia, there were only a handful of companies capable of producing one billion dollars. He found it hard to believe that Jiang Chen, someone from Huaxia Martial Arts, could come up with that amount.
Moreover, Jiang Chen was right; while the Divine Bone Order was indeed a divine artifact, it currently held less value than one billion dollars for their blood clan.
Brower pondered this, weighing the pros and cons. Business was tough these days, and the large blood clan relied heavily on his company for support. One billion dollars was indeed not a small sum.
However, the Divine Bone Order was one of the clan's treasured artifacts; he didn't have the authority to make such decisions without consulting the Blood Ancestor.
After hesitating for a moment, Brower's azure eyes fixed on Jiang Chen as he said, "If it were five billion dollars, I might consider it."
Although Jiang Chen wasn't short on money, adding up all his assets would barely reach that figure. Five billion was out of the question.
"It's just one billion dollars. The Divine Bone Order originally belongs to Huaxia; having fallen into your blood clan's hands, it's merely a slightly rare antique for you. In the history of this world, the most expensive antique has never exceeded ten million dollars, right? Offering you one billion dollars is already my limit," Jiang Chen replied calmly.
Even for Hongmen and Lion's Share, he only asked for one billion dollars after they repeatedly failed to appreciate his worth and even allowed them to pay in installments over ten years. Yet here was Brower demanding five billion.
"Without five billion dollars, there's nothing to discuss," Brower waved his hand dismissively, ready to kick Jiang Chen out. He knew five billion was unreasonable but wanted to make things difficult for him.
"Mr. Jiang, let's go. I told you the Divine Bone Order is not for sale. Even if you could buy it for one billion dollars, I feel it's not worth it compared to my cooperation. You wouldn't spend any money and I could even give you some," Monroe whispered as he tugged at Jiang Chen, trying to leave with him.
But Jiang Chen didn't budge; instead, he sat down leisurely in the chair in front of Brower's desk.
"I already said no negotiations without five billion dollars. Why are you still here?" Brower frowned; Jiang Chen seemed intent on provoking him.
"Actually, I've changed my mind; one billion is too high—let's make it five hundred million," Jiang Chen smiled.
Brower paused in disbelief, thinking he must have misheard.
"Five hundred million? Are you joking?" Brower replied coldly.
"Then how about fifty million?" Jiang Chen suggested again.
"What do you mean? Are you deliberately trying to provoke me?" Brower's face darkened as he grasped Jiang Chen's intent.
"If you don't agree soon, you might end up with nothing and still have to hand over the Divine Bone Order to me," Jiang Chen said with a calm smile, exuding an air of confidence.
