Chapter 338: Chapter 264: To Buy or Not to Buy?_2

"Is this the one?" He walked over curiously, holding back from reaching out to touch it.

"Yes." Sean Knight saw that Compton’s fingers had moved but were held back, so he smiled and said:

"Mr. Compton, you can actually touch it. I haven’t used the energy inside, it has accumulated virtue for many years, so touching it once is fine."

Elijah, Lincoln, and Douglas had already seen these terracotta figurines, which were the same model as the ones they had encountered before.

So, now Elijah, Lincoln, and Douglas were all curious about how much these terracotta figurines were worth.

Actually, they also knew that it should be several million US dollars based on the volume of gold.

With the added value of antiques, it would be around 20 or 30 million dollars at most.

The remaining value would come from the energy inside.

All three of them were looking forward to it.

Although they knew that the energy was very precious, Sean ultimately didn’t give them the figurines, but they were clear.

This thing only comes by chance.

Sean had sold something similar in Ocean City before, but this was different.

This time, it was a legitimate sale of the terracotta figurines.

So, how much are they worth?

When Compton heard what Sean had said, his evaluation of Sean went up a notch in his heart.

Sure enough, he was a person praised by Black. Although he was young, his actions were generous.

Compton then extended a finger and gently touched the terracotta figurine.

According to Compton’s thoughts, he would retract his finger after touching it.

After all, all he wanted was to evaluate the energy he had felt before.

Because the feeling of that energy was really too clear!

However, after touching it, Compton didn’t want to withdraw his hand!

This feeling was even more comfortable than when he felt the crystal yesterday!

There was no impurity, and it was extremely comfortable!

Although this was made of gold, unlike the crystal hand bone which was so shocking, the energy was so pure!

Yes, Compton’s first impression was of purity!

And there was a lot of it!

It seemed several dozen times more than the energy he felt in the crystal hand bone!

He really didn’t want to withdraw his hand!

Not because of greed, but because he couldn’t bear to let go!

At this moment, Ms. Kathy coughed lightly as if her throat was uncomfortable.

Compton then suddenly came back to his senses, forcibly resisting the comfortable feeling as he withdrew his hand.

Then, with a slightly reddened face, he looked apologetically at Sean:

"I’m sorry, Mr. Knight, I just couldn’t help myself. However, I’ll buy this terracotta figurine, no matter the price..."

The two bodyguards behind him looked a bit surprised.

This wasn’t their boss’ style!

Elijah and the others were also a bit surprised.

No matter how much it cost? Wasn’t this an open invitation for someone to ask for an outrageous price!

However, Sean was the one who understood best.

The energy in the crystal hand bone and the energy in this terracotta figurine were different.

To put it in a more obscure way, the energy in this terracotta figurine was the belief energy of the Indian Tribe who prayed for happiness.

Although the energy in the crystal hand bone had similar content, it also contained the resentment of the original owner of the hand bone - Sean absolutely did not believe that the original owner of the hand bone had died peacefully!

Compton, having felt the energy of the crystal hand bone first, was already aware of its benefits. Now, with something even better and much larger in quantity, how could he not accept it?

Never underestimate an old man’s desire to be rejuvenated and prolong their life!

"How much do you think this terracotta figurine is worth, Mr. Compton?" Sean asked with a smile.

"Priceless!" Compton said decisively.

In his opinion, it was indeed priceless.

Could money buy good health? He had so much money, yet he was still slowly aging, right?

Now there was suddenly a chance to return to youth or at least become healthier, so what was money worth?

As long as he had it, no amount of money mattered!

"Well then," Sean thought for a while and said, "how about 300 million dollars?"

He had actually raised the price temporarily based on Compton’s previous performance.

Originally, he had planned to ask for 200 million dollars.

After all, in terms of cultural value, this item might not be as valuable as that crystal hand bone.

It wasn’t really special, and there was a larger quantity of it.

However, after seeing Compton’s reaction, Sean felt that he might have underestimated the value.

Having more here didn’t mean it was more common elsewhere!

Upon hearing Sean’s offer, Compton immediately agreed:

"Good, this price is very fair!"

As if afraid that Sean might regret it, he immediately proposed:

"Well then, let’s make the deal now! I’ll transfer the money, and after it’s received, I’ll take the terracotta figurine away, alright?"

"Okay." Sean smiled and nodded.

Of the three of them, Lincoln was the most composed.

Elijah was a little dazed, and Douglas was completely stunned.

The terracotta figurine itself, at a high estimate, was worth 50 million US dollars.

Three hundred million minus fifty million left 250 million!

The three of them had absorbed 250 million worth of energy in an instant!

It was obvious to them that even at a price of 300 million, old man Compton still felt like he had gotten a bargain!

Thinking about the 250 million worth of energy that they had absorbed, all three of them were actually quite shocked.

Compton transferred the money himself, and Sean confirmed it after the transfer was complete.

Once it was confirmed, Compton immediately placed his hand on the terracotta figurine!

He would absorb the energy first, no matter what!

Now, absorbing energy was the most important thing of all!

He was decisive and had encountered more than one situation where he had missed opportunities due to hesitation.

This kind of energy couldn’t be entrusted to others!

About ten minutes later, Compton left with a ruddy face, and Sean sighed. The money seemed to have come a bit too quickly?

And there’s still someone coming to give money tomorrow.

After knowing that Hugh was the master of the arrogant butler Joyce, Sean had already planned to trick him.

Nothing much, just pure dislike of the person.

So when Hugh came with his bodyguards the next day, he saw a mask placed on the tea table.

A bear mask.

Made of gold.

Hugh had seen a lot in his day and recognized the extraordinariness of the mask at a glance.

Kathy still directed the maids to pour tea, and then she stood to one side and didn’t speak.

After all, she had been a great help yesterday.

When Sean asked her later, she said it was unintentional.

But Sean thought it was deliberate.

Hugh hadn’t brought Joyce along, for fear of angering Sean and not selling the mask to him.

Sean invited Hugh to sit down, and after chatting about some insignificant topics, Sean said:

"Yesterday, a nobleman you know bought an item from me for 300 million US dollars."

Hugh immediately cast his gaze on the mask.

"You’re right, it’s from the same place," Sean volunteered.

million US dollars!

Hugh’s heart ached severely.

Black had only paid 150 million US dollars!

Although he had heard that Black had sold the suburban ranch in New York City as well, that was still not 300 million.

So he said sternly:

"Mr. Sean Knight, I need to know why it’s worth 300 million US dollars."

"Since you’re a buyer, I’ll allow you to touch it once," Sean felt that if you want to take, you have to give first.

So letting him touch it once shouldn’t be too much trouble.

"Alright!" Hugh immediately reached out his finger.

He remembered the expression of Mr. Compton the day before yesterday when he touched the crystal hand bone very clearly!

Now, it’s his turn to experience it!

The moment his finger touched the mask, Hugh thought:

"How can there be such a comfortable feeling? Is this the magical energy?"

Then his finger was pushed away by Sean!

"Just now, that touch was actually worth 5 million US dollars," Sean said casually, "It can make you live about one month longer."

He made a big profit!

Hugh felt like he had made a big profit!

Just touch once, and live one more month?

He was a little doubtful - was Sean tricking him?

Seeing his expression, Sean had to explain again:

"That kind of energy is actually a kind of active energy, mainly nourishing your various organs and keeping them active longer. If your organs are active enough, won’t you live longer?"

So that’s how it is?

Understood!

How could Hugh just allow himself to live one more month?

That’s impossible!

He must live longer!

So he was pretty sure he had to buy this mask.

However, he still wanted to negotiate the price:

"Mr. Knight, how about 250 million? This is already a very considerable amount!"

Upon hearing, Sean stretched out his hand:

"Mr. Hugh, you can leave now! That touch just now was a gift for you!"

Hugh was stunned – Sean didn’t play by the rules, not even allowing him to negotiate the price!

Three hundred million, should he buy it or not?
