After Bi Youlong had someone investigate, he quickly became furious, even though he had initially thought these things were definitely reliable.

The main thing is that he spent so much money, he couldn't possibly buy something useless, but when the test results came out, he felt like he had been slapped in the face.

The most crucial thing is that, like a fool, he even took the items and had them appraised.

"Damn it, I thought there wouldn't be any surprises, but now it seems to me that they're treating people like idiots."

The men below dared not speak, because they all knew that the truth was obvious: their boss had been tricked, and most importantly, he hadn't believed it at first.

"Boss, what do we do now? The auction house definitely won't take back the items. And since ancient times, everything has been confirmed after the auction. In front of everyone, they said that the items have already been delivered to us, and that they're letting us pay the balance because we're regular customers."

Now all that's left is the final payment, and the auction manager is waiting there. If they don't pay the remaining balance, they definitely won't be able to leave today.

In such situations, even if you suffer a loss, you can only swallow your pride and bear it; there is absolutely no chance to refute it.

Although the butler was waiting outside, he could hear the voices coming from inside, and he knew that the other party definitely didn't want to hand over the goods now.

However, they didn't force people to buy it on their own. Besides, their people didn't say much in the way of introduction. They just said that it was just a lucky charm. Who knew it would fetch such a high price?
It's more expensive than anything else they have, and I thought Bi Youlong originally wanted to do charity.

After all, all the money raised in this charity auction will be made public, and many people will be able to monitor it.

"They're waiting outside for money, so they have to be honest and not trying to fool me. Right now, it's obvious they're trying to scam me and still want me to pay. Do they really think I'm stupid?"

Bi Youlong said resentfully, and the people around him clearly understood that their boss definitely didn't want to pay the money.

Not only did they not want to pay, the leader was also prepared to turn against them at any time.

"Boss, auction houses definitely have rules. If we do this, our reputation will be terrible, and other forces might put pressure on us. Why don't we just pay the money first?"

Otherwise, if word gets out, they will be looked down upon next time they want to do something, so he always felt that as the boss, he absolutely had to hand it over this time.

Bi Youlong snorted coldly. It was just an auction house working under his command. Besides, he had donated money to this auction house before. Even if the items were returned this time, he could just bid on them again next time.

"Go and call the auction house manager over. I have something to tell him personally. I know that the auction house manager has some connection with me. As long as I tell him, I believe he will not object."

Hearing their boss's stubbornness, the subordinates could only hope that his connections would have some effect; if not, they would have to leave it to him to decide. Soon, a crew-cut young man opened the door and let the steward in.

The steward was dressed in a Chinese-style outfit. When he looked at Bi Youlong, he already knew what the other party wanted to do. However, he still insisted on his own attitude. After all, he was working for the auction, not for an individual.

"We have extended the payment deadline this time. Sir, you should pay now. After all, there are still other activities to be held at the auction. So many eyes are watching, and this time we are specifically showcasing it to the general public. This is the rule of our auction."

The manager's words were serious; he had prepared the machine, which was already on the table.

Bi Youlong looked at the machine, feeling annoyed. They were urging him to pay so quickly. It seemed that the auction house was in cahoots. He knew that if he didn't pay, he would be watched, but who knew they would be watching so closely.

"You tricked me into buying this bead. If it weren't for your trickery, I probably wouldn't have bought something so priceless."

As he said this, the manager gave a bitter smile. You really are putting all the blame on our auction house. Besides, if it really was our auction house that tricked you into buying it, then our auction house naturally needs to bear some responsibility.

"Sir, you can't say that. There were surveillance cameras in those places when we were auctioning, and we never said we wanted to deceive you. You can't just say things like that no matter what you do."

"These items were purchased with records, and so many people are watching. We can't just renege on our debts like this."

After the manager finished speaking, he forced a smile. He felt that if the other party reneged on the debt, there was no need to say anything more about it.

Sensing the steward's stubbornness, Bi Youlong felt annoyed. This must be the auction house's intention. Even if he did something to the steward, his reputation would definitely suffer if word got out.

However, although he has so much money in his account, the company needs to operate, and in addition to the company's operations, he also has several projects that require investment recently.

"Could you grant me some more time? I have some business that requires funds. If you can grant me more time, I will definitely pay you back in the future. You know my reputation, I would never default on my debts."

He had already adopted a pleading tone when he spoke, but the manager remained stubborn. Since you were the one who took the bid, you should definitely pay for it. It's unacceptable to refuse to pay now.

"Sir, our auction house naturally has its own rules, and we cannot break any of them. Otherwise, if word gets out, it will sound really bad."

After he finished speaking, the manager pushed the machine up again. The auctioneer was already urging them to hurry up, and all the guests had paid their money. Only the person in front of them was left.

"Sir, the auctioneers are already waiting, and they'll be tallying our accounts soon. If the money is deposited and our charity project proceeds, your name will be on it. I believe this donation will be more than worthwhile." (End of Chapter)
