Chapter 454: Chapter 454: Bidding!

The next evening finally arrived, the moment of the bid for Subway Line 10.

Lin Luoluo had come to the provincial city a week in advance, working day and night, all for this moment.

Today, she had put on a business skirt suit and light makeup, looking both capable and stunning. At a glance, people found it hard to look away.

Even Zhou Yu was staring, dumbfounded.

Especially the slender legs that showed beneath the business skirt, they sparked much imagination.

After gathering her things, Lin Luoluo turned to leave but caught Zhou Yu watching her intently.

Her face blushed slightly, then she quickly grabbed Zhou Yu’s arm and pinched it subtly.

"What are you staring at?"

"Let’s go."

Zhou Yu chuckled.

"President Lin, you look really beautiful today."

Lin Luoluo glared at him without a word, but the uptick at the corner of her mouth revealed her inner joy.

The two drove to the Investment Center.

It was crowded and bustling.

Lin Luoluo was a bit surprised.

"Usually, for such predetermined projects, not so many people are invited. Why did Mr. Zhao invite so many?"

Zhou Yu didn’t understand these things well, and he asked,

"Is there a problem?"

Lin Luoluo shook her head.

"There shouldn’t be..."

"I contacted Mr. Zhao yesterday, and he said everything was arranged. We’ll make an offer and someone will follow for three rounds. After that, no one will continue to bid."

"Moreover, the bidder won’t increase the price by more than one billion each time."

Zhou Yu nodded.

He wasn’t worried at all.

After all, Qi Guochang had given his word about this project; there wouldn’t be any surprises.

Zhou Yu and Lin Luoluo followed the organizer’s bidding process, obtained their number plates, and found their seats in the bidding area.

The bidding conference started soon after.

Since the investment department organized the bidding conference with many projects involved, Zhou Yu and Lin Luoluo waited patiently.

An hour later, the host finally announced:

"The next project for bidding is the Yancheng Subway Line 10. Bidders please prepare to start bidding."

Hearing the host’s statement, Lin Luoluo immediately sat up straight and turned serious.

Although the project had been secured for the Lin Family, Lin Luoluo was still unavoidably nervous.

After all, it was a key step for the Lin Family’s new development and the largest project they had ever undertaken.

"The starting bid for Subway Line 10 is 3.5 billion. Now, we invite the bidders to make their offers."

"Yancheng City Investment, 3.8 billion."

"Wanli Urban Construction, 4 billion."

"Qinzhou Rail Construction, 4.1 billion."

"..."

Immediately, several people made their bids.

Lin Luoluo did not hesitate either.

She immediately followed suit.

After three rounds of bidding, the price reached 6 billion.

And only one company was still bidding against Lin Luoluo.

Lin Luoluo was somewhat excited as she whispered,

"Mr. Zhao’s final price for me is 6.2 billion. Once I call out this price, the other party will withdraw."

Zhou Yu nodded.

"Alright, then go ahead and bid."

"Okay."

At that moment, the other party called out a price.

"6.1 billion."

Lin Luoluo increased the bid without hesitation.

"6.2 billion."

As expected, upon hearing this price, the other party hesitated for a moment before quitting the bidding.

The entire venue was now silent.

Obviously, everyone else had given up.

Lin Luoluo’s face was full of excitement; as soon as the host’s gavel fell, this matter would be settled.

But just then, a stranger’s voice rang out.

"6.5 billion."

Zhou Yu and Lin Luoluo were both stunned.

Especially Lin Luoluo, whose face showed astonishment. The final price given by Zhao Heng was 6.2 billion—how could anyone offer 6.5 billion?

"What’s going on?"

Lin Luoluo looked puzzled.

As she was wondering, the host started the countdown.

Having no choice, Lin Luoluo bid again.

"6.6 billion."

However, that voice declared without any hesitation:

"7 billion!"

Boom.

The atmosphere in the venue instantly heated up.

Most of the attendees were savvy; such projects like the subway were usually predetermined, so there should be no surprises, and everyone had a general idea of the figures in mind.

But the current situation was clearly an outlier.

Excitement was evident on everyone’s faces as they watched the two bidders.

Zhou Yu also sensed something was amiss and turned to look at the person who had bid.

Although the man was sitting on the other side of the venue, Zhou Yu’s extraordinary vision allowed him to clearly see his face.

After a good look, his eyes narrowed.

"Qiao Chuanjiang!"

He remembered this man.

Back at the Yeyuan Bar, his son Qiao Bufan had attempted to force Xu Qingqing’s friend Tao Tao to accompany him for drinks, only to have both father and son taught a harsh lesson by Zhou Yu.

Since then, Zhou Yu had not seen Qiao Chuanjiang and his son again.

But unexpectedly, here was Qiao Chuanjiang today.

If it were a stranger, Zhou Yu might not have thought much of it.

But this was Qiao Chuanjiang, a man with whom he had a grudge, and Zhou Yu immediately sensed there might be trouble.

At this point, Lin Luoluo had already made another offer.

"7.1 billion."

But Qiao Chuanjiang, without a moment’s thought, directly shouted,

"7.5 billion."

Zhou Yu could see clearly with his Divine Sense, Qiao Chuanjiang’s eyes were filled with a sneer, and he didn’t even blink when spending the money, as if it wasn’t his own.

By now, Lin Luoluo’s expression had turned utterly grim.

Even if the Lin Family’s business had been flourishing in Yancheng and their assets were growing, coming up with nearly ten billion in cash was still a very difficult prospect.

Her bidding opponent’s voice conveyed strong confidence, indicating that they were not inclined to give up easily.

What to do now?

Lin Luoluo was caught in a dilemma, at a loss.

Just then, Zhou Yu grabbed Lin Luoluo’s hand and raised it.

"10 billion."
