Chapter 888: Chapter 589 The Rights of A-level Members Chapter 888 -589 The Rights of A-level Members 鈥淓ight billion!鈥
As if delivered by the light chirp of a warbler, the words fell, and the entire hall instantaneously became deathly silent.
Eight billion, to be honest, this sum of money was not too difficult for the hundreds of billionaires in the hall to accept.
With their net worth, they wouldn鈥檛 mind bidding up to ten billion for a beloved item.
However, at this time, the eight billion was being spent on a small pill芒鈧€漞ven though the Longevity Pill was incredibly precious, it wasn鈥檛 necessarily required to be bought in this manner.
For example, a week later, when the Longevity Club鈥檚 second batch of missions was dispatched, just by casually completing one D-level task, not only could one directly advance to a D-level member, but also obtain a Longevity Pill.
Indeed, many tasks cannot be measured by money, as they involve more connections and relationships; however, there were also tasks that could be completed with money.
Generally speaking, a D-level task would require about three to five billion to complete.
...
Thus, the set price for a Longevity Pill would be roughly three to five billion.
Sun Shangwu had bid five billion earlier, partly to show his presence among the many top billionaires, and partly because he had calculated the approximate price of a Longevity Pill.
And five billion was just on the brink of a limit.
But Sun Shangwu clearly miscalculated; he originally thought that his bid of five billion would go uncontested, as there seemed no need for others to continue bidding.
However, when someone suddenly raised the price to eight billion, Sun Shangwu knew he had oversimplified matters.
The bidder this time was a blonde woman seated at the center of the hall, who had flowing golden hair, delicate features, and most memorably, a pair of brown eyes.
潡堭潣凁潟橉潣?co
Despite her expressionless face, the woman exuded a temperament that was impossible to look directly at.
鈥淭he princess鈥檚 bid is eight billion, eight billion for the first time鈥
Is there anyone else bidding, eight billion for the second time鈥?鈥
Chu Mo quietly watched the elegant woman at the center of the hall; this princess named Annie was recognized as the most beautiful and graceful woman in the world.
Annie was born in 1997 to a middle-class family in Fez of the ancient city of Morro; her father was an elementary school teacher, and she had an older sister.
Annie lost her mother at the age of three and was raised by her grandmother.
Good parenting made her a smart and beautiful girl who was loved by all.
After becoming a princess, this graceful and captivating woman had won a lot of popularity among the public.
Her appearance at Chu Mo鈥檚 Longevity Club might be related to the serious illness of the aged King of Morro.
As for the exorbitant price of eight billion鈥
It can only be assumed that the King鈥檚 illness is serious, even to the extent that it can no longer be delayed.
The sudden bid from the princess made many in the hall quickly understand her reasons.
Jumping from five to eight billion also showed her determination to win at all costs.
By this time, it became unnecessary芒鈧€漚nd also irrational芒鈧€漟or others to continue bidding, as doing so could mean offending the whole kingdom of Morro.
Indeed, following Princess Annie鈥檚 bid, the entire hall had quieted down, as everyone had calmed themselves.
Even if some were still not ready to give up on the number one Longevity Pill, considering that the Longevity Club would release more tasks in the future, they chose to endure.
On stage, seeing no further bids, Chu Mo decisively brought down the hammer.
Eight billion, this price had far exceeded Chu Mo鈥檚 own expectations.
You see, at the beginning, Chu Mo had estimated a low price of three billion in his heart; as long as it did not fall below three billion, he would accept it, but now it was not only far exceeded, it was even beyond the maximum price of five billion he had expected in his heart, marking a decent beginning.
With Chu Mo鈥檚 hammer strike, it signified the end of this auction.
Chu Mo had prepared only one Longevity Pill for this occasion and had nothing else to auction.
Closing the precious Golden Phoebe Wood box in his hand, at Chu Mo鈥檚 signal, the princess, who had been sitting at the central seats of the hall, finally slowly stood up.
Then, amid the applause of the top billionaires as if at an award ceremony, the elegant and confident woman slowly stood up, her gait unhurried as she approached the stage.
She did not rush to take the Longevity Pill but took her time to size up Chu Mo thoroughly.
Nodding gently, only after a moment did she step forward to receive the exquisite wooden box from Chu Mo鈥檚 hands.
鈥淟adies and gentlemen, it is now lunchtime; please join me in the restaurant on the thirtieth floor,鈥 Chu Mo said softly, making an inviting gesture, as all the elite magnates in the auction hall rose simultaneously.
This time, Chu Mo did not leave alone but instead took the initiative to approach the front row of the hall where several billionaire tycoons were seated.
At this Longevity Club gathering, there were four top billionaires with a net worth in the trillions.
There were even two ultimate tycoons with net worths over ten trillion.
From the Ross family in America, the patriarch himself, Rothschild, with a net worth of fifty trillion.
And from the luxury magnate of France, Edward Gaoxiu, also boasting a net worth of over ten trillion芒鈧€漷hese two alone were worth more than the combined wealth of the rest of the hundred-plus billionaires.
Naturally, Chu Mo could not neglect these individuals; hence, he personally went to greet them.
