After watching the female secretary leave, the man finally dialed a number, "Hello, eldest young master, we've encountered a very strong competitor while bidding for that company."
"A competitor? Who cares who it is, just crush them with money and that'll be the end of it, won't it?" the young man on the other end spoke with extreme impatience.
"But... but..." the man staggered, not daring to speak out.
"Spit it out if you have something to say, stop hesitating!" the young man said coldly.
The man got a huge scare and hurriedly said, "Eldest young master, the competitor is very strong and the price has soared to 2.6 billion! This has already exceeded the maximum limit you gave me, which is why I had to ask for your opinion."
"Damn! Which damn company is willing to pay such a huge amount of money? Are they mistaking Mi Coin for Huaya Currency?"
The young man cursed and then said, "Keep throwing money at it, thirty billion as the ceiling... no, not the ceiling, I don't believe there's anyone in the world who dares to outbid me when it comes to wealth."
In his heart, the man muttered to himself, you're not the richest person in the world, you just happened to be born into a good family, what are you showing off for.
But on the surface he flattered, "That's right, eldest young master, you are the richest, and I also investigated that our competitor's company address is in Jing'an City, a small city in Tiannan Province. I really don't know where such a wealthy boss would come from in such a small city."
"Tiannan Province, Jing'an City? What is the name of their group?" the eldest young master suddenly asked.
"It's Xu Liu Group, what's the matter, eldest young master?" the man asked, puzzled.
However, the eldest young master didn't answer his question but laughed loudly, "Hahaha! It turns out to be Xu Liu Group, talk about a narrow path for enemies! Back then, Xu Hao made my third brother lose face in Jing'an City, so today I'll make Xu Hao lose all his face!"
"Eldest young master, you know the owner of Xu Liu Group?" the man said, surprised.
The eldest young master's mood seemed to have improved significantly as he laughed, "I've never seen him in person, but I know his name and appearance. Remember how my third brother ran back to the family looking dejected and then got depressed for a long time, don't you?"
"I do, that was the saddest time for Third Young Master in these years."
"The reason Third Brother was depressed for so long was all because of Xu Hao! At that Didixiya auction held in Jing'an City back then, Xu Hao, with his absolute financial power, snatched the Nine Star Chain Ring that my third brother loved, hurting him deeply. It was our mother who persuaded him for a long time before he was finally able to step out of the shadow Xu Hao cast. Now that Xu Hao dares to compete with me for something, I'll let him know what despair really means!"
This eldest young master was none other than the eldest young master of the Jiangnan Mao family, Mao Jinxi's elder brother, Mao Jinli!
The moment he heard the competitor was Xu Hao, he was instantly filled with fighting spirit. Then he personally opened a video call with the man, saying, "Come on, I'll direct you. Raise the bid, 2.7 billion!"
Xu Hao saw the bid for Yuanfang Technology Company soar to 2.7 billion and was immediately a bit puzzled.
Just now, the other party was only raising the bid by ten million each time, which clearly indicated they were running low on funds.
Yet now, after a few minutes of pause, the price suddenly went up by a billion.
That meant the increments had increased tenfold!
Could it be that the other party had raised more capital?
Seeing Xu Hao deep in thought, Jing Yuanfan didn't dare to make a sound.
However, seeing that Xu Hao made no move, Mao Jinli immediately sneered, "Hmph! Xu Hao is only capable of bullying my third brother. When facing me, he still has to admit defeat, doesn't he?"
The man quickly nodded in agreement. Mao Jinli, as the firstborn son of the Mao Family, was traditionally expected to inherit most of the family's estate. So now, in the Mao Family, Mao Jinli, who was nearly thirty, was also one of those with real power and naturally had access to funds beyond what Mao Jinxi could compare.
However, after thinking for a moment, Xu Hao directly said, "Continue raising the bid, three billion. There's no need to waste time with the other party."
Three billion Mi Coin!
In all fairness, this was already a loss big enough to bankrupt someone. But when Xu Hao gave the order, Jing Yuanfan had no choice but to follow.
"Damn! It actually went up to three billion, Xu Hao, you really have some nerve. This time you win, my Mao family can't possibly spend so much money on an empty shell of a company."
Mao Jinli cursed, resenting the turn of events, and said, "Give up the bidding. Let that fool Xu Hao buy it. Anyway, perhaps we can take it from his hands later on. For now, just consider it a favor for holding on to it for a while for us."
Take it over? Themostup-to-dateversionison*.
The man didn't fully understand but sensed there was more to Mao Jinli's words, yet didn't dare to say more, and simply obeyed the order to stop bidding.
When he saw that Yuanfang Technology Company had given up, Jing Yuanfan was overjoyed.
Xu Hao had resolved the auction in the simplest, most brute-force, yet fastest way.
Three billion Mi Coin!
Almost two hundred billion Huaya Currency!
Jing Yuanfan swore that before this, he had never imagined Xu Hao to be so wealthy!
