The main event was about to begin, and the usually efficient host unusually rambled on for a few minutes.

This meditation cushion was obtained by someone from a dilapidated ancient temple hidden deep in the mountains, never before seen by the world... Because it has the effect of calming the mind and accelerating the circulation of vital energy when one sits on it, we named it the Bodhi Meditation Cushion, meaning that it can lead to sudden enlightenment.

"I now announce the official commencement of the auction for the Bodhi meditation cushion, with a starting price of 200 million and each bid increment of no less than 20 million!"

"Wow! The starting bid is two hundred million! That's impressive!"

"It's a pity that those of us sitting in the lobby can only watch with envy."

"Based on my years of experience, I predict that this thing will eventually sell for at least a billion, so let's forget about it."

Amidst the murmurs of the crowd in the hall, the bigwigs in the private rooms on the second floor began to place their bids.

"Three hundred million!"

"Four hundred million!"

"I'll offer five hundred million!"

......

In less than a minute, the bidding price broke through one billion and was still climbing rapidly, leaving everyone present speechless.

As the price gradually increased, Lin Shasha's expression became increasingly tense.

Finally, she couldn't hold back and spoke up domineeringly.

"I'll offer two billion!"

This shout immediately raised the price of the prayer mat from 1.5 billion to 2 billion, causing a brief silence in the room.

"You absolutely must film this, you absolutely must film this."

Lin Shasha clasped her hands together and muttered some incantations.

Her father-in-law only gave her 2.5 billion yuan. Judging from the current situation, it's hard to say whether she can win over this futon.

As expected, the silence lasted only a few seconds before another voice made a bid.

"2.1 billion."

"Two billion!"

Although the bidding was not as intense as before, the price was still steadily climbing and was about to approach Lin Shasha's bottom line.

Just then, Jiang Hu, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.

"I'll offer 2.5 billion. I hope everyone here will give me, Jiang Hu, face and let me have this prayer mat."

"Jiang Hu?"

"I never expected that the person in VIP room number one would be the underground emperor of Jiangcheng."

A small commotion broke out in the hall.

Upon hearing his words, fewer people made bids. Only one person tried to raise the price by 20 million, but after he forcefully overtook them with a high bid of 2.4 billion, that person also chose to give up.

After all, besides being an underground emperor, he was also a master of Qi cultivation.

There are very few experts of this caliber even in Jiangnan Province. In addition, he is ruthless and vicious, so no one wants to mess with him.

Seeing that no further bids were made, he burst into laughter.

"In that case, I'll gladly accept this treasure. Now, announce the result."

Just then, Lin Shasha finally uttered a number, her eyes red.

"Twenty-five billion!!!"

The room fell silent again, and everyone's eyes turned to Box Number Two.

In VIP room number one, Jiang Hu leaned back comfortably on a single sofa while two young and beautiful women massaged his legs.

Seeing that Lin Shasha dared to bid, he looked at her with a mocking gaze and laughed out loud.

"You little brat, you really don't know what's good for you, daring to steal my things."

Lin Shasha didn't tolerate him and started scolding him directly.

"Old Bi Deng, stop talking nonsense. If you're so capable, then bid. If you're broke, then go cool off somewhere else."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hu's eyes instantly turned cold, and he crushed the cigar between his two fingers into powder. He had already decided to kill Lin Shasha for daring to disrespect him in front of so many people.

"Heh, 2.6 billion."

After he casually uttered those words, Lin Shasha was utterly devastated and collapsed onto the sofa.

She looked at Ye Chen, her eyes brimming with tears.

"I'm sorry, Brother Chen, I'm incompetent and can't help you."

"Don't cry, Sasha. I still have Grandpa's allowance with me."

As Ye Chen spoke, he opened his phone and showed her his balance.

At first, Lin Shasha didn't pay much attention and casually asked, "How much is there?"

"A 2 in front, followed by lots and lots of 0s." Ye Chen spread his arms and made an exaggerated gesture.

"Oh, let me see."

Lin Shasha didn't have much hope, after all, pocket money could only amount to a few cents, a million at most.

However, when she saw the densely packed zeros on Ye Chen's bank card balance, she was completely stunned.

"Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands... billions!"

"Big brother, you're too extravagant! Two billion in pocket money?" Lin Shasha's mouth dropped open.

"hey-hey."

Ye Chen scratched his head and smiled shyly.

What she didn't know was that two billion was just the number displayed on the surface of this top-tier global black card.

In reality, this is not any currency on Earth, but rather a type of points.

Each point can be exchanged for 100 Euros, so his actual balance is 20 million Euros, or 2 trillion Dragon Coins.

"Haha, there's always a way out!"

Lin Shasha, who had been looking dejected, instantly perked up and jumped up.

"Two billion!"

The other room remained silent for a while before adding another 100 million, seemingly surprised that Lin Shasha actually had money.

"Three billion!"

With Ye Chen's financial support, Lin Shasha felt very confident.

"Thirty-one billion!"

Jiang Hu's voice was filled with gritted teeth.

Even though he was the underground emperor of Jiangcheng, it still hurt him to take out so much cash.

"Three billion!"

In order to completely suppress Jiang Hu, Lin Shasha went all out, raising the price by 400 million yuan in one go, which drew gasps from the audience.

"Little girl from the Lin family, do you have that much money?" Jiang Hu said venomously.

Lin Shasha felt incredibly happy.

"What's it to you whether I have that much money or not? If you have money, make an offer; if you don't, shut up, understand?"

"Damn it!"

Jiang Hu cursed under his breath and spoke through gritted teeth.

"Three billion!"

"Four billion!"

Less than a second later, Lin Shasha made another bid, and then didn't forget to mock Jiang Hu.

"Old Biden, I still have 20 billion in cash on hand. What do you have to compete with me?"

Jiang Hu knew she was using psychological tactics, but he couldn't figure out her true intentions, putting him in a dilemma.

While four billion is not his absolute limit, it's close enough.

If it weren't for the fact that he would reach the threshold of fifty in six years, thus having no hope of becoming a Grandmaster of Foundation Establishment in this lifetime, he really wouldn't want to film this.

But in this situation, whether it's to reach the Grandmaster realm or to save face for the underground emperor, he has to pay a price.

"Four billion five billion!"

He abandoned his previous cautious approach and made an aggressive offer.

Lin Shasha's eyes reddened again, and she didn't back down at all.

"Fifty billion!"

As long as we can get this futon and help Ye Chen recover, this money will be well spent!

Jiang Hu was about to speak when he was stopped by his strategist, Cai Hongchang.

"Tiger, calm down. The authenticity of that prayer mat is still uncertain. Why don't we wait for Master Wu to appraise it before making a bid?"

"How could I, a Grandmaster of Qi Refining, not be able to tell if something is real or fake?"

Jiang Hu was now in a bloodthirsty frenzy and wouldn't listen to any advice.

"Fifty-four billion!"

He then roared, this was his bottom line. If it exceeded this number, the Black Tiger Gang would face an economic crisis and might collapse within a month.

"You two little brats over there, I, Jiang Hu, am determined to get this futon. If you're so capable, keep bidding!" Jiang Hu pushed open the door and went out into the corridor, staring intently at the number two VIP room.

"Fifty-five..."

Just as Lin Shasha was about to shout, Ye Chen covered her mouth.

"Waaaah... Brother Chen, what are you doing? Let me make a bid..."

She struggled violently, but he was surprisingly strong, and for a moment she couldn't break free.

Just now, Ye Chen had already had Li Muling investigate the Black Tiger Gang and find out where his bottom line was.

Jiang Hu's asking price had already crossed his bottom line. If he raised the price again, the junk might end up in his own hands.

Just when the atmosphere at the scene was extremely tense, an old man with a goatee, wearing a mandarin jacket and a melon-shaped hat, ran in from outside, panting.

"Master Wu has arrived." Someone immediately recognized the old man.

Master Wu didn't even bother to greet everyone. He practically used both hands and feet to climb up to the second floor and came to stand in front of Jiang Hu.

"I'm sorry, Tiger, I was in a car accident on the way and I'm late. Can you let me take a look at that prayer mat?"
