NOVPUBChapter 490: Chapter 380: Chu Mo鈥檚 Bank Card Chapter 490 -380: Chu Mo鈥檚 Bank Card 鈥淭wo hundred thousand.鈥
In the middle of the hall, a gentle and elegant voice filled with a languid tone took hold as everyone鈥檚 eyes converged on the mesmerizing woman at the center, and a clear look of recognition flickered in the depths of their gazes.
First, it was Lin Youzhi, the Family Head of the Lin family, and now Lin Ling鈥檈r, the young miss of the Lin family had joined in, making it clear that the Lin family intended to thoroughly disrupt the proceedings.
The Lin family was ready to go head-to-head with Bafang Kelai Jewelry Store.
Fan Zhijian, seated in the front row, had a grim expression on his face, like still water.
He had staked the future of his entire clan, opening three hundred and sixty jewelry stores in a single month, depleting the Fan family鈥檚 connections and potential.
If they couldn鈥檛 make the Lin family bleed this time, his Fan family would naturally be the unlucky ones.
The jewelry store had just opened, and Lin family鈥檚 provocations were relentless, so the pressure he faced was immense.
...
At this moment, Chu Mo in the front row slightly curved his lips.
He leaned subtly toward Princess Mina Gong beside him, and then, whispering into her ear with a hint of a smile, Chu Mo said softly,
鈥淧rincess, this 鈥楬eart of the Deep Sea鈥 necklace was specially prepared for you, it matches with the two hundred million US dollar necklace I gave you before; wearing them alternately would perfectly highlight Your Highness鈥檚 nobility!鈥
As the delicate words fell, the blonde woman beside him also curled her lips slightly.
The world鈥檚 most famous jewelry queen glanced at Chu Mo with coquettish eyes before speaking lightly,
鈥淎s for necklaces, I have plenty at my disposal.
潣梆潣凁潟橉潡?co
When it comes to items like the 鈥楬eart of the Deep Sea鈥? there are at least a dozen in my vault.
Even if I wear a different one each day, I could go half a month without repeating, so I鈥檓 not lacking one 鈥楬eart of the Deep Sea鈥?鈥 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝔬𝔪
Upon hearing this, Chu Mo couldn鈥檛 help but sport a wry smile.
However, before he could speak, the blonde woman by his side chuckled with a hand over her mouth,
鈥淪till don鈥檛 get your point?
You just want me to bid, then put pressure on the Lin family, right?鈥
The fact that Princess had seen through Chu Mo鈥檚 thoughts left him with no room to argue, and he replied earnestly,
鈥淣othing gets past Princess Mina!鈥
The woman once again rolled her coquettish eyes, then, without further tangle with Chu Mo, she gracefully raised her right hand, her voice noble and infused with elegance,
鈥淥ne million!鈥
Mina did not jump to the billion-level pricing like Geng Pan did before, nor did she increase the bid by ten thousand at a time, but she did raise it to a level that was quite ordinary yet decidedly deserving of deep thought.
The Lin family from Hua Country was in the jewelry business, owning over three hundred stores nationwide with a scale reaching the hundreds of billions, and although far behind Princess Mina鈥檚 trillion-dollar net worth, it was comparable to a tenth of her scale, certainly not an ant easily squashed with a slap.
Princess Mina and the Lin family had some connection, and she did not wish to push the situation with them to a point of mutual destruction.
After all, she was just a supplier, not yet at the point where she was directly competing in the ring with the Lin family, so she restrained herself when bidding!
One million was both an assertion of her determination to secure the 鈥楬eart of the Deep Sea鈥 and a message to the Lin family that she had no intention to vie with them for superiority.
However, at this moment, Lin Ling鈥檈r did not seem to have any intention of backing down.
In her view, anyone standing with Fan Zhijian was an enemy, and naturally, she would show no mercy toward her enemies.
Therefore, as soon as Mina made her bid and even before Lin Youzhi could stop her, Lin Ling鈥檈r raised her hand and called out a price that was clearly targeted!
鈥淥ne million one hundred thousand!鈥
Lin Youzhi鈥檚 mouth opened slightly as he sighed softly, then he chose to remain silent.
With Lin Ling鈥檈r鈥檚 renewed pressure, Princess Mina, who had previously maintained a congenial face, for the first time withdrew her expression.
As a jewelry queen, one of the most powerful women in the world, also a trillionaire backed by the entire British royal family, she naturally carried her own pride.
In the past, wherever she was, whether it was for status or beauty, she was always the most eye-catching presence.
At any auction, and with any piece of jewelry, as soon as she spoke, it was generally taken as the final word; no one would dare compete with the jewelry queen or risk offending the entire British royalty by opposing Princess Mina.
This was the first time since Wei鈥檈r Mina became famous that someone had defied her will.
So, the originally intent Wei鈥檈r Mina, who had tried to avoid conflict with the Lin family, now possessed a coldness in her blue eyes, and, raising her hand a second time, she said,
鈥淭en million!鈥
From a hundred thousand to a million, and then from a million to ten million, Princess Mina鈥檚 bids increased tenfold each time.
This time, Lin Youzhi finally stopped Lin Ling鈥檈r from bidding again before she could act.
He was well aware of the jewelry queen鈥檚 capabilities, as she controlled nearly a quarter of the world鈥檚 jewelry trade 鈥 far beyond what a mere Lin family from Hua Country could contend with.
Even if the Lin family had the support of Hua Country鈥檚 eight major families, Lin Youzhi knew that they would only lend a hand when things were going smoothly, and would definitely not give him a second glance if he fell into an abyss!
Lin Youzhi didn鈥檛 want to antagonize Princess Mina, so he used a look to stop Lin Ling鈥檈r from bidding.
Amid Lin Ling鈥檈r鈥檚 slight dissatisfaction, the auctioneer in the front row spoke up:
