Zhu Xiangyue had to admit that he was quite clever. Yue Hui had also considered the situation, but this approach would only enhance the company's visibility without generating any real profit; it could even lead to losses. Yue's Jewelry already had a significant reputation and did not need such tactics, but for the Zhu Family's jewelry company, this presented an opportunity.
The staff, hearing Zhu Xiangyue's words, found themselves in a difficult position. They couldn't offend Yue Hui, nor could they upset Zhu Xiangyue. Moreover, Zhu Xiangyue was willing to offer an additional million. In the end, the staff could only apologize to Yue Hui.
"Mr. Zhu, it seems you have too much money on your hands. Do you think I want this Golden Buddha? I came here today just to accompany Mr. Jiang; I have no intention of purchasing any items. This Golden Buddha is something Mr. Jiang has his eye on, intending to gift it to his Guan Waipo. Your actions are quite disrespectful to Mr. Jiang," Yue Hui said calmly.
Zhu Xiangyue glanced at Jiang Chen, who stood nearby with an expression as calm as a still pond.
"Ha! I don't care about Mr. Jiang; I've set my sights on the Golden Buddha. The highest bidder wins. If anyone wants to take it from me, they simply need to offer a price that makes me hesitate," Zhu Xiangyue declared.
The staff couldn't help but feel secretly pleased at Zhu Xiangyue's words; the young master of the Zhu Family had arrived at just the right moment. If everyone were like Zhu Shao, the total sales at this auction would likely exceed thirty percent more than expected.
"Zhu, Zhu Shao—" Just as Zhu Xiangyue finished speaking, someone beside him tugged at his sleeve. He turned to see Dong Mingshui looking anxious and signaling him with his eyes.
Dong Mingshui certainly remembered Jiang Chen; three years ago on West Lake, he had teased Yue Hui and nearly faced death at Jiang Chen's hands. He was well aware that despite Jiang Chen's youthful appearance and seemingly harmless demeanor, his strength was terrifying. Dong Mingshui now dared not provoke someone with such abilities.
As a friend of Zhu Xiangyue, Dong Mingshui felt it necessary to offer a warning.
"Just say what you need to say," Zhu Xiangyue replied impatiently.
"That person... we can't afford to provoke him; his skills are too formidable—he's a Martial Arts Expert," Dong Mingshui whispered.
"So what if he's a Martial Arts Expert? Does he dare use force here?" Zhu Xiangyue scoffed dismissively.
"That's true, but Zhu Shao, you should still be cautious; he really is quite powerful," Dong Mingshui said thoughtfully. With so many people around tonight, even if Jiang Chen was extraordinary, he likely wouldn't dare act out in front of everyone. Still, it was better to be careful.
Zhu Xiangyue sneered and ignored Dong Mingshui's advice, turning his attention back to Jiang Chen with a provocative tone: "I don't care who you are or what your background is; the rules of the auction state that the highest bid wins. I’m offering one million more than you; if you're not satisfied, feel free to raise your bid—I’ll match you all the way."
Yue Hui fell silent, internally mourning for Zhu Xiangyue for three seconds. He had genuinely worried that Zhu Xiangyue might surpass Yue's Jewelry within five years, but now it seemed uncertain whether Zhu Xiangyue would survive the night.
"I don't need to raise my bid for this Golden Buddha; it’s already mine," Jiang Chen said flatly.
"You really are naive! I'm offering one million more than you! Brother, if you don't have money, then don't come to places like this," Zhu Xiangyue retorted sarcastically.
"What I want cannot be obtained by you even if you offered one hundred billion more. Before I completely lose my patience, you'd best disappear from my sight; otherwise, you might vanish from this world altogether," Jiang Chen replied calmly.
