Chapter 6 Success
Facing Lu Mingfei's suddenly arrogant smile, the financial manager had a faint fear in his heart, and hurriedly looked at the LCD screen.
"I'm sorry, it's still two ......" The financial manager's half-faced smile froze, and his words stopped because the numbers on the screen were changing rapidly, and every digit was flashing every second!
This means that a huge amount of money is pouring into this account!
It didn't take long for the number to finally freeze at "$102,000,000.00", and the financial room was silent, and in ten seconds, a total of 100 million dollars poured into the account!
Lu Mingfei still had a smile on his face, arrogant and careless: "One hundred million." β
"Yes...... Yes, your account has just ...... An increase of 100 million. The finance manager stammered.
"The look on your face is much better now, but I mean, when the auction reopens, I'll bid $100 million." Lu Mingfei glanced at his watch and said lightly, "I'm tired of wasting each other's time, it's time to end this farce, my last bid, if someone bids higher than me, then I will cut love." β
"Okay, now I'm going to go to the bathroom, put this thing away, I'll give you authorization, this brand is worth 100 million now, and when I come back, I want to see the final result." Lu Mingfei got up, casually threw the "17" plate to the financial manager, and then went out.
The auctioneer stood back on the stage, his voice trembled, and his eyes were shining: "Now that the auction has reopened, we have received the authorization of Ms. No. 88 to bid 50 million, and Mr. No. 17's authorization to bid...... One hundred million! β
The audience was silent, the price had risen to this point, this "unexpected encounter" had surpassed any other lot in this auction, nearly four times the price of the gourd bottle that had been sold for the highest price before, this auction had entered the field of competition for madmen, everyone looked at the box on the right, whether No. 88 would participate in this competition was the only variable on the field.
"$100 million at a time!" The auctioneer raises the gavel.
"$100 million twice ......"
The girl at number 88 got up and left without saying a word, as if she had suddenly lost interest in the auction and abandoned it.
"$100 million deal!" The auctioneer dropped the hammer heavily.
In the lounge outside the opera house, Lu Mingfei was thinking in circles, he had just spent 100 million, enough money for him to live for eighty lifetimes, and now he had to slow down, he was now worried about how the cheating code given by the little devil worked, if this money came from the academy, was this considered an abuse of public funds? If Professor Manstein had known, would he have suffered a cerebral hemorrhage on the spot?
But the thing has been done, and this is called a boat, if the academy lets itself sell itself to pay off the debt...... I don't seem to have much to do, otherwise I should find a way to fight for my future treatment, Lu Mingfei felt that if the college was investigated, he would not be able to repay the money for the rest of his life, and suddenly began to plan the future of whether he would choose to work or run away or work first and then run away.
Thinking about the hybrids, it turns out that capital is the power that surpasses the so-called dragons in this world, and the so-called hybrids are also terrified in the face of a $100 million money offensive.
Lu Mingfei was thinking nonsense, and suddenly someone behind him called out: "Mr. Lu." β
Lu Mingfei was surprised, after studying in the academy, he had a full score in the practical class, and it was unlikely that even if he was distracted, it would be impossible for people to touch his back silently.
He turned sharply and tensed up, the girl in number 88 was only a foot away from him, her eyes were cold, and the crimson at the corners of her eyes seemed to carry a solemnity. Lu Mingfei retreated to a safe distance without a trace, and looked at the girl cautiously: "Excuse me, is there something wrong?" β
The girl actually smiled, she didn't come to find trouble: "The courage to bid in the end is great, although I also like this treasure box, but unfortunately I don't have the financial resources like Mr. Lu, so I have to endure the pain." β
After saying that, she leaned forward slightly and did something that made Lu Mingfei's eyes widen - she gently dropped a kiss on Lu Mingfei's cheek!
Lu Mingfei's brain shut down all of a sudden, the girl's actions were not hostile, it was really abrupt, he didn't react at once, and when he reacted, he was already surrounded by the faint smell of flowers and the girl's warm body temperature.
For the first time in his life, he was kissed by a girl, and he was actually taken away by a girl he didn't know, at this moment, there were countless emotions churning in Lu Mingfei's mind, and he felt that the swords in the sword steps were about to jump out, Lu Mingfei's face turned red as soon as he brushed it, and water vapor was about to come out of his head.
"My brother is very handsome...... Do you hear the applause inside? They're here to applaud you, maybe one day...... The whole world will applaud you. The girl chuckled lightly and turned to pass by Lu Mingfei.
In the red Cadillac DTS of Bordeaux, on the wide sofa, the girl curled up casually, "drilled" out of the tight Arabian robe like a rabbit, and then stretched her proud figure that could make anyone's blood run high.
Changing into a black leather jacket and leather pants that had been prepared a long time ago, a burgundy short jacket and three-inch high-heeled red strappy sandals, Mai took off the golden veil on her face, revealing a face that was extremely beautiful and aggressive.
In order not to be recognized, she really took great pains to wrap herself from head to toe in a robe.
"The plan is successful, according to what you said, 100 million." Mai Liquor connects the car phone.
"Well done, I've seen an extra $100 million in the account here, and after deducting the cost of making and consigning the auction, this net profit is $95 million." The sound of crisp potato chips was heard across the phone.
"I said, the value of the things in there is not just a hundred million that can be measured, is it a little too cheap? And the box itself is half a treasure hand-forged by the King of Bronze and Fire. Mai asked.
"There's no way, you have to keep it secret before that thing is handed over to the Kassel Academy, it's hard to raise the price if you want to keep it secret, after all, it's a task ordered by the boss personally, if it weren't for the fact that giving it away for nothing would arouse Ange's suspicion, I wouldn't have bothered so much, so I would have to charge him $100 million to subsidize the family...... The economic situation has not been good recently...... You guys don't know what saving is, and every time you pay for the aftermath, it really scares people to death......" Potato Chip Girl started chattering like a housekeeper.
"Stop!" Jiude Mai was afraid that she would come to this set, so she hurriedly said, "Does the boss have any instructions lately?" β
"Yes. Just gave an instruction. β
"What's the matter?" Wine De Mai got serious.
The boss is a mysterious and detached guy, and he usually doesn't know what he's doing, and he will personally order only when something particularly important happens, and every time he uses the strongest and most violent means, he only asks about the result, and never cares about the process.
"He said to let the Bank of Zurich go bankrupt and reorganize." Potato chip girl said.
"This ......," Mai hesitated.
"It's difficult, but it's not impossible, and we can still make a lot of money after we do it." The potato chip girl said, "I don't need you to do it." β
"Okay."
Carrying out tasks, regardless of why, they have always been.
β¦β¦
With his hands in his pockets and humming arias that were popular in the past era, Ange leisurely walked through the VIP passage of the Municipal Opera House, where famous paintings from Van Gogh and Monet to Rubens hung on both sides of the corridor, but none of this allowed him to stop and admire.
"Congratulations on what you wanted." An old greeting came from behind, as if it was from an old friend who had reunited after years.
Ange stopped, and a short figure was cast on the ground by the sunlight, and the figure was crutched and crutched. Ange looked down at the figure, a smile on his face, and he beckoned to Lu Mingfei, who was waiting at the end of the passage: "Mingfei, come here, there is an old friend who wants to talk to me, come and see the world." β
Lu Mingfei walked over, and Ange took a deep breath, but did not look back.
"Aren't you willing to talk? Why don't you come in and sit? The man behind asked.
"In Texas in 1899, you shot me while I was turning. Since then I've been so sick of calling me behind your back, Henkel, after all these years, do you still have your pair of alchemy wheels with you? β
"It was all a hundred years ago, you won't still hold grudges, will you?" The old man behind him, known as "Henkel", smiled kindly, "At that time, your 'Time Zero' could only be delayed by four seconds, but now it's more than ten seconds, right?" Even flying bullets can be slowed down by you, so what is there to worry about? I'm old now, and I'm no longer the 'Kuaishou Henkel' I used to be. β
"But your 'Holy Judgment' is so annoying that no one can be sure of evading your ruling." Ange said lightly, as if it were both praise and ridicule.
Lu Mingfei walked over to Ange and stood obediently.
"It's a modern society now, don't rely on words and alchemy revolvers, come in and have a drink, everyone is here."
Ange turned and nodded at him at the skinny old man in his wide-brimmed cowhide hat with round rimmed glasses, who looked like a retired Texas Ranger from the last century, and in fact wore a worn badge on his hat.
A crimson door hidden in the wall opened, and Ange motioned for Lu Mingfei to go in with him.
When I walked into the room, I saw 13 high-backed cowhide chairs, and on each chair sat a handsome young man. They all raised their right fists and revealed the silver ring on their index fingersβthe quaint rings engraved with their respective family crests, a way of greeting them and revealing their origins.
"I guess you don't need me to introduce you anymore, do you? Hilbert Jean Angers, a well-known financier in the circle, is our big client and the rector of the Kassel Academy. Henkel said, looking at Lu Mingfei, "Who is this kid?" β
Ricardo S. M. Lu, the best 'S' class student in our house, spent $100 million on an 'Unexpected Encounter' at auction today. Ange smiled and introduced to the crowd.
Everyone looked at Lu Mingfei with scrutinizing eyes, and Lu Mingfei smiled implicitly and nodded to everyone.
Henkel sat at the table and motioned for Ange to sit casually, and Ange casually picked a seat and sat down, letting Lu Mingfei sit next to him.
"How many years have we not spoken? Angers? Henkel had a look of remembrance on his face.
"The last time was on December 7, 1941, when we were negotiating at Pearl Harbor and we were hit by a Japanese air raid just halfway through." Ange lit a cigar and said.
"Yes, I think about it, it's been so long, it was still World War II, the United States declared war, and the negotiations for an alliance between us were suspended." Henkel nodded with emotion, "More than half a century has passed since the pause. β
Ange took a puff of his cigar and glanced at the well-dressed young men in the seats, "This is the family representative of your generation?" β
Henkel nodded: "They are all excellent young people in various families, some of the old guys of your and my generation have died, and some are so old that they can only lie on the hospital bed with oxygen tubes to survive, this is really a tragedy brought by blood, and they have to endure the torture caused by the slow failure of their organs." β
"As for me." Henkel sighed, "I'm also old, only you are still as vigorous as a young man, which is really enviable." You're going to a bar now, and you're going to attract little girls, right? I also like that Maserati you brought me. β
"You don't have to go around the bend," Ange spat out a string of smoke rings, "I always see you at the auction if you want to meet, I haven't spoken for more than half a century, this time I make an exception and I don't just want to come to me to catch up, right?" β
"Let's celebrate by taking a picture of what you love." Henkel picked up the champagne in the ice bucket and poured a glass for both Ange and Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei took the glass of champagne without humility or arrogance, and placed it in front of him like other young people here.
"Then it's thanks to your giving up that we can get it." Angers toasted.
"This makes us regret a little, you want that thing so much, and even don't hesitate to bring this child to stir things up, it must have extraordinary value." Henkel looked at Lu Mingfei and said, "This little friend of yours is so capable of playing tricks that we have lost our ability to judge, and it is too late for us to react." β
Lu Mingfei did not avoid Henkel's gaze, but smiled at Henkel without being humble or arrogant, and he now deeply realized that his current overtime task is to do a good job of the principal's pendant, no need to speak, keep smiling, and don't embarrass the principal.
"I'm also very satisfied, Ricardo is one of our excellent 'S' students." Ange laughed and patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder, like a parent showing off his child's perfect score report card at a friend's party.
"You've had 'S' class students after all these years, you must have recruited a lot of young people with first-class blood, right?" "I've also heard that you've even killed the 'King of Bronze and Fire,' one of the four great monarchs. β
"It's not a secret, but you've always been well informed." Ange flicked the ash of his cigarette and took a sip from the goblet in his hand.
"But we can't be sure if you got the keel." Henkel raised his eyebrows and said.
