The banquet hall was instantly silent.

There were still some people whispering in the audience, but after hearing the final number of the head of Ross, everyone was so shocked that they couldn't speak at all, and the banquet hall of Nuoda was so quiet for a while that it seemed that even a pin could be heard clearly.

The dead silence didn't last long, and a moment later, there was an explosion in the hall.

"Five million gold coins, the gods are on top! Is this true?"

"Wouldn't it? How could the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce borrow such a large amount?"

"That's right, even if you sell the whole Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it's not worth so much, right? 500,000 gold coins are enough!"

"When did the Chimera Chamber of Commerce become so talkative? The last time we asked them for a loan of only 800,000 gold coins, they were all rejected, how could we apply for 5 million gold coins through the Guò Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?"

......

Everyone's eyes were full of incredulity.

And the most incredible of them all, of course, is President Morgan.

He stared at Ross Boss, if it weren't for so many people around him watching, he even wanted to rush to the stage and pull Ross's face hard to see if he was someone else pretending.

However, reason told him that this Ross was indeed the Ross boss he had been in contact with several times before in Anvimar City, and it was impossible for him to be pretended by someone else.

Besides, what's the use of Xu Yi finding someone to pretend to be him? If this kind of thing is not approved by the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, does Xu Yi dare to do it casually?

After a long time, President Morgan slowly came back to his senses and looked at Xu Yi deeply. Turning to Director Ross, he asked, "Director Rose, can I ask a question?"

Director Ross nodded slightly: "Excuse me." ”

"I want to ask. Why did the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce get you Chimera Chamber of Commerce to agree to this loan application of up to five million gold coins?" asked President Morgan.

This question can be said to be a concern for everyone, and President Morgan asked it as soon as he asked it. Everyone looked at Ross in unison.

Who knew that Chief Ross glanced at President Morgan, but replied expressionlessly, "I'm sorry, I have nothing to say about this issue." ”

"Ahh

A sigh rang out.

Disappointment is disappointment, but it is clear to everyone that Ross's answer is understandable.

After all, the reason for the loan is a secret of the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, and it is not surprising that Ross will not answer.

The muscles on Morgan's face twitched twice, and he nodded without asking.

Seeing that no one had any doubts, the Count of Satsuma stepped forward at the right time. It was announced that the auction would continue.

However, the continuation of the auction meant that President Morgan had to face the sky-high price of 1.8 million gold coins proposed by Xu Yi.

Although the Joseph family had instructed President Morgan to acquire the two iron mines at any cost before coming to this auction, the Valcao Chamber of Commerce's internal estimate of this smaller mine was only between 800,000 and 1,200,000 gold coins, and when Morgan had just sold 1,660,000 gold coins, it was already far beyond the budget.

And now, if you want to overwhelm Xu Yi's bid of 1.8 million gold coins, it will be even more than that.

The auctioneer, who was back on the stage, couldn't help but cough lightly when he saw that President Morgan hadn't spoken for a long time. Reminder: "The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has 1.8 million gold coins, is there anything higher? If not, this mine will be owned by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce." ”

Everyone looked to President Morgan.

The cold sweat on President Morgan's forehead at this time was several times more than that of President Brno just now, and he looked at Xu Yi. Looking at the auctioneer again, he hesitated for a while, and finally slowly raised his hand before the auctioneer picked up the mallet. Softly shouted: "One hundred and eight hundred and fifty thousand." ”

"Two million. As soon as President Morgan's last word came out, Xu Yi immediately shouted out another number.

Everyone in the hall gasped at the same time.

Two million gold coins!

It's just for an iron mine that isn't particularly large!

And Xu Yi actually increased directly from 1.85 million to 2 million in one go. This is even more domineering than the previous President Morgan!

Everyone looked at Xu Yi as if they were looking at a madman.

Does this Xu also know what he is doing?

Did he think that two million gold coins had fallen from the sky?

Even if you Xinfei Chamber of Commerce didn't know why you got a huge loan of five million gold coins from the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, you can't just squander it like a low-level nouveau riche, right?

Think of the nouveau riche. Everyone suddenly remembered that compared to the many big chambers of commerce here with rich heritage and long history, are Xu Yi and Xinfei Chamber of Commerce just nouveau riche?

But whether it is a nouveau riche or not, Xu Yi has now offered this price, will Morgan accept it or not?

President Morgan took out a handkerchief and wiped his forehead vigorously, and found that the handkerchief that had been clean was all soaked at once, and his hand holding the handkerchief trembled slightly.

"Damn it!" President Morgan scolded viciously as he looked at Xu Yi, who still had a relaxed smile in the distance.

If it weren't for this guy suddenly running out to disrupt the situation, he would have been able to take this iron mine for a price of 1.66 million.

Although the price is still on the high side, it is still in an acceptable range.

But now Xu Yi quoted the price of two million gold coins, which is beyond the ability of President Morgan.

President Morgan hesitated and wiped his sweat, but he did not make another sound until the auctioneer had counted three times and the gavel fell.

"Two million gold coins! Congratulations to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for winning this auction and obtaining the mining rights of Mine No. 1 for fifty years!"

The auctioneer's voice echoed through the banquet hall, but it did not elicit any response, not even a ceremonial applause.

Everyone looked at Xu Yi and President Morgan with extremely strange expressions.

President Morgan eventually gave up the bid, and it was not surprising that everyone was disappointed, after all, the price of two million gold coins was too high, far exceeding everyone's psychological expectations.

As far as the algorithm Erkao Chamber of Commerce is concerned, the family has a big business. The strength is extraordinarily strong, but it can't be squandered at will. It is understandable that President Morgan chose to give up.

And Xu Yi obtained the mining rights of this mine at such a sky-high price, but no one will be happy for him.

Such a huge amount. Even if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce immediately started mining on a large scale, it would be impossible to earn back this principal in a short period of time.

What's more, the money is still borrowed from the Chimera Chamber of Commerce by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and the Chimera Chamber of Commerce is not a charitable association, which must be higher than the interest on the loan.

In the eyes of most people, Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce actually made an extremely stupid choice.

The first auction ended in an eerie silence, and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce won the rights to the smaller mine for a staggering 2 million gold coins.

However, the silence was immediately shattered by the sound of bidding as soon as the second auction began.

Mine 2 is much larger than Mine 1. The value of the deposit is much greater, but the starting price is only 700,000 gold coins.

Maybe it was because they saw the madness of the first auction, or maybe many chambers of commerce were staring at the larger mine from the beginning, so as soon as the auction began, a bunch of people enthusiastically spoke.

The starting price of 700,000 gold coins was pushed to 1 million gold coins in the blink of an eye, and then approached 1.5 million like a rocket.

But just when a representative of a chamber of commerce was about to bid for 1.5 million, President Morgan, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

If you don't open your mouth, you will be shocked.

"Two million!"

It directly raised the price by 500,000 gold coins!

The hall fell silent again, and everyone looked at President Morgan. found that the expression on his face at the moment was actually a little hideous.

Everyone immediately understood that this time, President Morgan was afraid that he would not give up on the mine no matter what.

Otherwise, the Falcao Chamber of Commerce would have returned empty-handed this time.

After a moment's pause. A representative of the Chamber of Commerce who came all the way from Anweimar City shouted out the bid of "two million and fifty thousand".

And as soon as he finished speaking, President Morgan directly shouted "2.3 million".

Although it did not increase by as much as 500,000 gold coins at once, it increased by 250,000 gold coins at once. It's still amazing.

Even more striking was President Morgan's words after the bidding was over.

"This mine, we at the Falcao Chamber of Commerce must get our hands on it. Whoever wants to rob it is the enemy of our Falcao Chamber of Commerce! Even if you get this mine, will you be able to mine it?"

This is nothing short of a naked public threat.

Count Satsuma frowned, a little dissatisfied in his heart, but then his eyebrows furrowed, and he did not express any opinion.

Seeing that everyone didn't make a sound, President Morgan turned to Xu Yi and snorted coldly: "President Xu, how is it? Do you still want to increase the price? You borrowed five million gold coins from the Chimera Chamber of Commerce at once, and now you have three million left, aren't you ready to fight with our Falcao Chamber of Commerce again?"

Xu Yi looked at President Morgan in surprise and said with an innocent expression: "President Morgan, what are you talking about? Have you forgotten that you also told me before that our fellow members of the Federation are all good friends, and everyone should help each other, how can they compete maliciously? Besides, lending five million gold coins doesn't mean I have to spend them all, does it? To be honest, using up the two million now already gives me a headache. If it weren't for the fact that our Chamber of Commerce consumes too much iron ore to produce magic machinery, I wouldn't be very interested in this mine, do you say?"

President Morgan stared at Xu Yi fiercely, not believing a word at all.

But Xu Yi had already shown the intention of backing down, so he naturally didn't say anything, just kept staring at Xu Yi to see if he would raise the price at the last moment like just now.

However, until the auctioneer counted down and dropped the small gavel to announce the end of the auction, Xu Yidu just kept smiling, closed his mouth, and said nothing.

After hearing the auctioneer's announcement that the Falcao Chamber of Commerce had obtained the right to mine this iron mine, President Morgan let out a long breath, as if he had just finished a big battle, and his whole body relaxed.

Xu Yi came over at this time and smiled at President Morgan: "Congratulations, this mine has finally fallen into the hands of your Falcao Chamber of Commerce." It's a pity, our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is really not strong, otherwise I really want to compete. ”

President Morgan snorted heavily, thinking to himself that if it weren't for you guy, these two iron mines would be in the pocket of the Falcao Chamber of Commerce.

Now that there is one less, the Joseph family must be very upset about it, and President Morgan has no idea what punishment will be next.

Xu Yi suddenly took two steps and said to President Morgan in a low voice: "By the way, President Morgan, since our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has now started a mine, then I am going to study some magic machinery for mining, I wonder if your Falcao Chamber of Commerce is interested?"

President Morgan looked at Xu Yi in amazement, and found that his expression was very serious, and it didn't look like he was telling a lie, so he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Although President Morgan looked down on such a small chamber of commerce as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, he had to admit that the magic machines produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce were all very novel and easy to use, the most obvious example of which was the farmland magic machinery.

If Xu Yi really intends to develop some mining magic machinery, then maybe it can really be of great help to the Falcao Chamber of Commerce.

Thinking of this, the expression on President Morgan's face quickly changed at the speed of Xu Yi's amazement, revealing a kind smile, and said to Xu Yi: "Of course I'm interested." Why don't you talk to me in detail?" (To be continued......)
