Everyone in the grand ballroom of the Mellon family's manor didn't expect that this inconspicuous box, which didn't even bid just now, would soar to a full 10 million dollars in just a few minutes!

Just after Mr. Cole Smith offered a low price of $120,000, everyone thought that the mysterious tycoon would take the same mysterious box at a low price, but Harper Lawrence from Boston actually participated in the bidding.

In terms of the rules of the auction, Harper Lawrence is understandable to do this, after all, the auction is a place of bidding, and whoever has the highest price will take the lot.

But the problem is that this is not a formal auction, and you Harper Lawrence just now clearly didn't hit this half of the box, otherwise why didn't you bid just now?

You don't have to wait until someone else makes a bid from Cole Smith before you follow the bid, you obviously have a problem, and in this case, in Yanjing dialect, this is a very bad thing.

The most important thing is, can you Harper Lawrence really see the value of this box? Or do you really need this box? The Mellon family has been thinking about it for almost a century and hasn't figured out what this box is for.

If you do this, you are clearly targeting Cole Smith.

And in terms of actions, you clearly do just that.

Cole Smith quoted a low price of 120,000 yuan, and you quoted 200,000 yuan. Cole Smith reported 210,000, and you reported 500,000...... As a result, Harper Lawrence was stunned to quote a broken box that no one had bid on just now to a sky-high price of 10 million US dollars.

You Harper Lawrence is indeed rich, and his net worth may not be worth a billion dollars, but with your kind of pick-and-seer personality that all Americans know, if you can be willing to spend 10 million dollars to buy such a useless broken box, then the sun will rise over the Pacific Ocean.

You're not bidding, you're just here to make trouble. You are the face of the Mellon family in the fan of the red fruit.

Timothy Mellon and Skeefher's faces have become so ugly that even Paul Mellon, who has never been very fond of the family business, can hardly sit still. That is, Richard King Mellon went back to the room early, and if the old man was there, with the old man's temperament, he would have to blast this-stirring stick out.

"One thousand and ten thousand......" Yang Jing still said a number so indifferently, and sure enough, like the previous bid, his bid was only $10,000 higher than Harper Lawrence's fool.

Although the people at the scene didn't know if the mysterious Cole Smith was fighting with Harper Lawrence, it could be seen that even if he was vindictive, Cole Smith was full of confidence.

However, it is obvious that Harper Lawrence, who was purely here to make trouble, has really become vindictive this time, and after Cole Smith said the figure of 10 million and 100,000, he quoted a price of "20 million" without even thinking about it.

As soon as this price came out, a low cry suddenly sounded in the hall.

This box is different from the bronze sculpture of "The Mountaineer" just now, the value of that sculpture is geometric, and everyone present basically knows it, but this broken box cannot be worth 20 million US dollars anyway. Harper Lawrence is clearly fooling around when he quotes this price.

"Bang!", Paul Mellon, who is over eighty years old, slapped the table and stood up, "Mr. Lawrence, this is the Merlong estate, not your Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company, please be respectful." ”

As soon as old Paul said this, the audience fell silent.

Everyone knows that although the third-generation core figure of the Mellon family does not manage the family's business, his temper is known in the circle. More than 40 years ago, at a gathering of top high-level people celebrating the victory in World War II, Paul Mellon, who was in his forties at the time, scolded President Truman on the spot because he disagreed.

Although Paul Sr. is now in his eighties, his temper is still the same as it was back then.

"Mr. Lowell, this is the Mellon family, not you Boston, please be respectful of your people!" As soon as Paul Sr. finished talking about Lawrence, he aimed directly at Alex Lowell, the chairman of the First National Bank of Boston and the contemporary core of the Lowell family.

Different from the domineering Harper Lawrence, Alex Lowell is the core banner figure of the contemporary Boston Consortium, in the Boston Consortium composed of several major families, Alex Lowell is the real core figure, and among the eleven people who smoked cigars in the cigar house with Yang Jing and them just now, there is Alex Lowell, and there is no Harper Lawrence.

It's just unthinkable that even if old Paul was angry, Alex Lowell just smiled wryly and spread his hands and shook his head, which clearly meant to say: "I can't take care of that guy, it's useless for you to look for me." ”

Obviously, something is very wrong today, it was originally just an unknown broken box, but this broken box turned out to be a fuse, and now this fuse has been lit, and the other end of the fuse is connected to the two behemoths of the Boston consortium and the Mellon family.

The people who can come here are not stupid, they are all human spirits of human spirits, so they immediately realized that something was wrong, and the entire banquet hall immediately fell silent.

This is a battle between the two major consortia, although everyone on the scene knows that in the past ten years, the Mellon family and the Boston consortium have secretly fought fiercely, although the Mellon family has a slight advantage, but the advantage is not very obvious.

The Mellon family has an alliance between the Rockefellers and the Morgan family behind it, but why is there no alliance of the DuPont family behind the Boston consortium?

It's just that this kind of secret fighting is only limited to a certain certain range, and neither the Mellon family nor the Boston consortium will expand the scope or superficialize this kind of fighting. They all know very well that once the two major conglomerates really do it openly, the entire US economy will be seriously affected, and that is something they do not want to see.

As a result, I didn't expect that this situation, which has been controlled for more than ten years, is about to explode today because of a small broken box.

This is one of the bases of the Mellon family, and the core figures of the Boston consortium are openly provoking the Mellon family here, which is really hard to say.

The white-glove auctioneer on the stage was already sweating profusely at this time, and he couldn't wait to immediately drop the hammer to determine the ownership of this broken box, but he didn't dare to drop the hammer.

On one side is the huge Boston consortium, and although it is just a mysterious Cole Smith on the other side, this man was smoking a cigar with the core figures of the top ten consortiums just now, and after coming out, he talked happily with many top tycoons, and everyone could see that this person's background was also unfathomable.

Especially when old Paul is angry, this matter has now risen to another level of struggle, which is far from being controlled by a small person like him. Unless one of these two masters quits on their own initiative, it is clear that the mysterious Cole Smith does not want to quit, and that Mr. Harper Lawrence is clearly furious now.

It may be possible to let one of them withdraw voluntarily at this time, but it is definitely not something that he, a small auctioneer, can control.

You don't see that even old Mr. Paul is angry, but the bidding still doesn't seem to stop.

Bloomberg also swallowed dryly, pulled the corner of Yang Jing's clothes and whispered, "Cole, do you really want to continue to compete? The guys from the Boston consortium were apparently already on their side. ”

Yang Jing shook his head lightly, still without squeaking.

He couldn't see what was going on in this situation? He had now been inadvertently drawn into the battle between the two consortia.

Yang Jing didn't want to be caught in the middle, but this box suddenly reminded him of an extremely important thing, if he hadn't suddenly remembered this matter, he wouldn't have let go of this box.

Later Tang Dynasty, Later Tang Dynasty Emperor Li Congke, royal special Luban box, silk silk in Luban box......

It seemed that it would be fine to take out any of these things individually, but if they were connected, it immediately reminded Yang Jing of something legendary. In case the silk contained in this box really has traces of that legendary thing, then let alone 20 million US dollars, even if it is 20 million US dollars, Yang Jing will not hesitate to take this box.

It's really that the legendary thing is too valuable, even if it's just to guess that the silk hidden in this box may be related to that thing, then it's definitely worth taking this box.

What if the guess is correct? What if there is a clue about that thing on the silk?

Therefore, Yang Jing will never let go of this box.

And in Yang Jing's plan, anyway, he will buy a few banks next year, and as long as the Evil Dragon Fund buys those banks, it will inevitably conflict with the Boston consortium. In other words, in the next few years, the Dragon Fund is destined to fight with the Boston consortium.

Then since this is the case, today your Boston consortium people took the initiative to provoke first, then don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite!

Especially once it really competes with the Boston consortium next year, then even with the scale of the Evil Dragon Fund, it will need to win over a few allies.

The people of the Mellon family have a good impression of Yang Jing, and Yang Jing and Skeef are also very chatty, and since the Mellon family can't get along with the Boston consortium, why don't they show their attitude at this time? Presumably, the Mellon family is also willing to form an alliance with the KY investment fund.

The Mellon family, our Evil Dragon Fund or KY Investment Fund is on your side, I will help you get back face today, and when your buddies can use you in the future, you can't shirk it......

Thinking of this, Yang Jing glanced indifferently at the arrogant fat man, and said lightly: "Fifty million!"
