Chapter 434: Chapter 434: Wine Worth Eight Million

Hmm? Fiery Flame? Could she be... the Queen of Fiery Flame?

Upon hearing the woman on the platform’s words, Ye Xuan’s brow furrowed, and he felt a sudden surge of surprise in his heart.

It turned out that this woman was indeed the Queen of Fiery Flame, the dominating figure of the underground forces in East Sea City; it was quite unexpected!

After exchanging some pleasantries superficially, the Queen of Fiery Flame shifted the topic and directly moved on to the main subject, saying, "Now we begin the first auction session. This cocktail, the Fiery Flame of Passion, is my contribution to this cocktail conference. If anyone is interested, feel free to bid vigorously. The starting bid is one hundred thousand yuan."

One hundred thousand yuan!

This was merely the starting bid for a cocktail, an extravagantly high price which truly astonished everyone!

However, those present didn’t seem surprised by this price at all; not a hint of astonishment showed on their faces, as if the cocktail rightfully deserved that price.

In their eyes, a cocktail personally crafted by the Queen of Fiery Flame, if it wasn’t priced like this, would be strange.

In fact, the intrinsic value of the cocktail far exceeded one hundred thousand yuan.

"One hundred fifty thousand!"

As soon as the Queen of Fiery Flame finished speaking, a bid immediately came from the crowd, instantly raising by fifty thousand yuan and fully displaying their lavishness.

"Two hundred thousand!"

"Three hundred thousand!"

"Three hundred fifty thousand!"

"..."

Seeing someone making a start, the hall instantly erupted in excitement, with bids overlapping one another; the price of the cocktail shot up drastically, quickly targeting one million yuan.

"I bid nine hundred thousand! Is there a higher offer?"

"One million!"

"One million and ten thousand..."

The bidding vigorously advanced, and in the blink of an eye, it surpassed the million yuan mark!

Yet, this was far from the end! The real power of this Fiery Flame of Passion cocktail was just beginning to show.

Next, its price increased explosively.

"One million one hundred thousand!"

"One million one hundred fifty thousand!"

"One million two hundred thousand!"

"One million three hundred thousand!"

"..."

"Two million two hundred fifty-five thousand!"

"Two million two hundred sixty thousand!"

"..."

"Two million two hundred eighty-five thousand!"

"Two million two hundred ninety thousand!"

"Three million!"

The pace of the price increase was like a rocket’s, soaring upward rapidly!

In just three minutes, it had already broken through three million, completely astonishing everyone.

Moreover, the atmosphere in the hall was exhilarating, with major figures from various forces growing red-faced and thick-necked in their contention, showing no signs of stopping. The momentum continued to escalate like a rocket!

Indeed, everyone’s vigorous participation and willingness to pay such a high price were not merely to taste this legendary cocktail personally crafted by the Queen of Fiery Flame.

Those present, regardless of their status in East Sea City, were neither ordinary nor low-ranking. They were either immensely wealthy business tycoons, renowned leaders, or sons from prominent and affluent families!

They knew that the Queen of Fiery Flame was the Dark Empress of East Sea, a position in East Sea City unrivaled by anyone!

Lady Queen’s hosting of this cocktail party and auction of her personally mixed cocktails was naturally intended to draw support—an excellent opportunity to forge connections.

This opportunity, even if it meant fighting tooth and nail, must be seized! If one could make a favorable impression in front of the Queen of Fiery Flame, and she remembered one’s name, it would be worth spending any amount of money.

If one could gain favor with the Queen today, the rewards received in the future would undoubtedly be multiplied many times over!

Of course, everyone was determined to fight hard to secure this cocktail.

"Three million five hundred thousand!"

Soon, the price soared to three million five hundred thousand.

"Three million seven hundred seventy-five thousand!"

"Three million nine hundred thousand!"

"Four million!"

"..."

"Five million six hundred thousand!"

"Five million eight hundred eighty-five thousand!"

"Five million nine hundred ninety-nine thousand!"

"..."

"Six million five hundred thousand!!!"

As the final bid sounded, the entire hall suddenly fell silent!

After a moment of quiet, the gazes of the crowd moved like "Instant Teleportation" toward the source of the voice.

A young man in a white suit, his face wearing a proud smile, slowly lowered his raised hand, clearly, the bid had just come from him.

When they saw the young man’s face clearly, everyone’s pupils contracted and expressions of realization appeared.

No wonder he dared to increase the bid by so much, it turned out to be the son of that significant figure.

The corners of the young man’s mouth lifted and facing the gazes of the crowd, the pride in his eyes did not diminish!

However, most people showed no displeasure; instead, they greeted him with smiles and nods, trying their best to display a friendly demeanor.

Many people even sealed their mouths and withdrew from the bidding.

Clearly, the identity of the youth made them feel intimidated; knowing they could not compete with him, they simply chose to give up and not offend the latter.

Of course, the people here were all of high status and not everyone was intimidated by this young man.

At this moment, there were still many people continuing to bid, clearly intending to challenge the young man to the end, without fear.

"Six million eight hundred thousand!"

"Seven million!"

The price broke through the seven million mark swiftly.

"Seven million one hundred ten thousand!"

"Seven million two hundred twenty-five thousand!"

"Seven million three hundred thousand!"

"..."

The rising trend continued, but it had clearly slowed down significantly.

Many people were adding ten or twenty thousand to the bid, and those adding fifty thousand were very few.

"Eight million!!!"

Just then, another loud voice rang out, directly reaching eight million!

The energy simply overshadowed everything else, without even blinking.

Once again, everyone’s gaze focused theirs, and they saw that the bidder was still the previous young man in a white suit.

This time, his pride was restrained, and after shouting the price, he slowly stood up from his seat and bowed to the hall, his voice resonant:

"Respected elders, may I ask for a favor? This cocktail, I wish to present it to a beautiful lady here! I humbly request that you allow me this drink, I, Jia Mingliang, would be extremely grateful."

Upon hearing this, the entire hall fell silent for a moment, then laughter followed:

"Mister Jia, since you have said this, it seems you really want this cocktail. Alright, I will not compete with the younger generation anymore, I shall leave the drink to you!"

"Haha, me too, since you personally requested, I will let you have it!"

"Who knew Mister Jia was also such a charmer, spending eight million to win a lady’s heart, truly lavish!"

"The stage is set, then we can only step back, no other choice now!"

"Wishing Mister Jia success in winning the lady’s heart..."

These uncles and elders felt awkward competing with someone younger.

At this moment, they exchanged a few courteous and joking remarks and blessings and then withdrew from the bidding.

Thus, the Fiery Flame Passion Cocktail was sold to Jia Mingliang for eight million.
