Chapter 1099: Chapter 579: Public Enemy!_2
Since that’s the case, let’s see how the big shots brawl.
If this Chinese Youth really comes with the gold, then the slap to the face will truly resonate!
One minute, two minutes, three minutes...
Everyone patiently waited.
Some felt that this five minutes was even longer than the usual half an hour!
Finally, a knock sounded from the entrance.
The military police guarding the entrance opened the door, and then Lincoln Harrington and Douglas Cooper came in, each holding a box.
Seeing Sean Knight sitting at the table, the two immediately approached.
The military police at the entrance did not inspect anything; they simply followed them in.
"More than 100 kilograms of gold, can’t be just in these two boxes, right?"
"Gold itself is heavy, although it doesn’t take up much space. But these two, carrying the boxes so effortlessly, don’t seem like they’re holding more than 100 kilograms!"
"Looks like someone’s going to be the butt of the joke!"
Even the Jewish man, after his initial surprise, couldn’t help but show a sneer.
What a joke!
One hundred fifty to sixty kilograms of gold, and these two are handling it so easily?
That would be around seventy or eighty kilograms each.
Ordinary people would at least have to hold it with both hands, and even then, walking would be difficult, right?
And ordinary people surely couldn’t move it at all!
These two, carrying the boxes, made it seem as light as a feather.
So he surmised that the boxes couldn’t possibly contain gold!
Or if there was any, it wasn’t much!
It seems that part of his plan had succeeded, at least!
"Isaac Myers, it looks like we need to transport the gold as soon as possible," Stella Gray also felt that it was impossible for the two boxes to contain that much gold.
She was no naive fairy untouched by the world; she knew full well that 100 kilograms was not something ordinary people could lift.
So she also guessed that Sean Knight hadn’t brought as much gold as he claimed.
Therefore, she still had a chance!
Only Andrew Petrov looked at the way Lincoln Harrington and Douglas Cooper moved and furrowed his brow.
If Sean Knight had said what he had said before, it was unlikely that he was just talking big.
Therefore, there was only one possibility: these men were strongmen!
Lincoln and Douglas placed the boxes on the table, which shook vigorously.
"Open it," Sean said.
Lincoln and Douglas opened the boxes, revealing the gleaming golden bricks inside!
"These were purchased in New York, standard five-kilogram gold bars. You can test them, weigh them," Sean said calmly, as everyone stared in astonishment. "There’s a total of 200 kilograms. Leave it here after deducting what needs to be deducted. I’ll need it for later."
The staff, reminded by Sean, scrambled to test the gold.
It was quickly confirmed to be real.
So there were no problems after that.
They promptly processed Sean’s procedures. It was done very quickly.
"If we run out of gold, I have more," Sean said with a smile. "So don’t worry."
He took the paperwork and returned to his seat.
Lincoln and Douglas packed the remaining gold back into the box and then sat down beside Sean.
Seeing that the auctioneer hadn’t started yet, Sean reminded,
"Shall we start the auction then? I don’t think only my gold should be tested, right? Though, when I think about it, there’s no need. After all, I intend to buy all the land in this auction!"
Such a statement should have triggered a wave of ridicule.
But no one laughed.
Or rather, no one dared to laugh.
When they realized that Lincoln and Douglas had walked in carrying what seemed like 100 kilograms of gold with such ease, they understood.
These men were extraordinary!
With such individuals, someone could easily take down a dozen people with bare hands!
Better not to provoke them!
The Jewish man’s face turned ashen.
He had planned to eliminate Sean from the competition, but instead, he had given Sean a stage to showcase his might!
Was this guy a god? How could he possibly know his plans?
But now, it was too late to think about anything. Since the opponent had taken his move, it was all about who had more strength!
Sean had proved his financial strength, so naturally, the auctioneer was very willing to listen to him and immediately said,
"Well then, let’s commence with this afternoon’s Land Auction! We are starting with the 22nd land, which spans four modules and covers a total of 238 hectares. The Location of this land is..."
The auctioneer went into great detail, apparently mostly introducing it to Sean.
Sean’s previous "arrogant" claim that he would buy all the land had made many uncomfortable.
However, now that he had proved his strength, and having declared his intention, it was very likely he meant it.
No one dared to mock him.
What if they were targeted?
"...The starting bid for this land is 2 million dollars, with each increase no less than 10,000 dollars. Let the bidding commence!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the Jewish man immediately raised his card:
"3 million dollars!"
Now there was excitement to witness!
Clearly, the Jewish man was no longer planning to drag things out. He was ready for a showdown!
The man with a grim face holding card number twelve hesitated and did not follow.
This time, Andrew didn’t either.
But Stella, somewhat reluctant, raised her card:
"3,010,000!"
Although she knew that bidding like this was almost futile, she still didn’t want to give up.
As expected, the Jewish man raised his card again:
