There were six warehouses in the public warehouse auction That was considered a
soldindustry
declined in the West, the town’s developan to slon
The auction was a low-profile one, and there had been no advertising of it, save for
some notices on the internet Hence, only a handful of treasure hunters had come to
attend the auction
Conrad kept his eyes on Princeps when he went to register He meant to force Princeps
to pair up with hiuidelines of the warehouse auction, the ownershi+p of the warehouse
would go to the auction winner The winner would need to have permission to
participate in the auction Hence, they would have to register with the warehouse
coet a number to participate
Conrad orried that Princeps would shake him off and keep the warehouse for
hiistration form Conrad Anthony’s name was printed on
it, so Conrad was qualified to participate in the auction
The auction began As there were only a handful of people attending, Conrad spotted
Hans easily
The two of theht each other’s eye Hans looked extre Mr Anthony, what are you doing here?”
Conrad said with a shrug, “Having fun”
Hans rubbed his hands and whipped out his phone tohis eyes on Hans, Princeps said with a hateful face, “Hethat
Chinese dude I don’t kno much information they have But we’d better be
prepared for anything, as they are richer”
Conrad said calales, I handled
everything, and the card is still with50-50, right?”
Conrad put his arm around Princeps and smiled warmly “Of course, 50-50 We talked
about it and caht?”
Reassured, Princeps turned to leave As Conrad stared after hi out of his pocket That was the nuistered himself
The auction started, and the warehouse with the telescope was the first one After it was
opened, Conrad recognized the warehouse from the pictures he had seen earlier The
warehouse was full of boxes Without a tip-off, there would be no way to guess what
was inside
The auctioneer called out the bid, and Hans i out,
“Five hundred dollars”
Princeps raised his tag as well and shouted, “One thousand dollars!”
“Ten thousand dollars!” Hans raised the bid
A few treasure hunters were shocked They were used to bidding in s for a bid like that To the 10,000 for a
warehouse was unheard of
Princeps showed no weakness, however “Twenty thousand dollars!”
“Thirty thousand!”
“Fifty thousand!”
“One hundred thousand!”
The bids rose rapidly, and the treasure hunters were stunned They exchanged looks
with one another and did not knohat to say
The price continued to rise, up to 200,000
Hearing that nuan to wonder
whether they had heard right So, “We are
dreaht? This is a hallucination?”
Conrad looked at those people and despised them He felt that these country bumpkins
from a small toere very pitiful and inexperienced
The 200,000 price tag deterred Princeps He turned to look at Conrad, asking, “Should
we continue to raise the bid?”
Conrad said, “Of course We have already done our research This telescope can easily
fetch 800,000!”
Hans was under pressure as well He took out his phone and made another call Then
he said, “Two hundred and fifty thousand!”
“Two hundred and sixty, ah, no, make it 250,000,” Princeps called out hesitantly
Conrad gave hi unhappily, “Let
