Chapter 25 Nouveau riche
“She is so well protected, how could the Huo family let her come to a place like this?” Evelin said coldly, her tone full of disdain for Oli’s brainlessness.
"I'm afraid she doesn't even know what her family does." Garland sneered, staring at the smug head of the Huo family in front of him.
Although they are not absolutely righteous good people, the Lan family never does anything outside the law, especially a circus performance for entertainment purposes.
As time passed, the hall was now full. After the speech by the head of the Huo family, he invited Vincent to the stage but Vincent refused.
When so many guests offended the head of the Huo family in Shangjing, only Vincent or Garland, who acted as they pleased, could do it.
"No one wants to listen to a boring speech, so let's get started."
Hearing Vincent's words, the head of the Huo family gritted his teeth and smiled apologetically. Now the Huo family still had to rely on the Si family, and he could not refute Vincent.
It will be soon. These miserable days will be over.
Suddenly, the lights in the venue dimmed, and as everyone was whispering, a beam of silver-white light shone in the center of the stage.
The dark red curtain was drawn open, revealing a gigantic python in a glass case.
Look closely and you will see a shivering girl huddled in the corner of the glass case.
The girl had a pretty face, with only a thin gauze covering her body. The python had its fangs pulled out and was standing upright, spitting out its tongue at the girl.
The girl looked to be in her early seventeen or eighteen years old, with tear marks all over her fair face, and she looked helpless.
Everyone gasped and gradually showed an expression of appreciation.
"The legitimate daughter of the Brando family's side branch, starting price is 50 million, and the increment starts at 5 million." As the host introduced, everyone raised their signs.
"This is too much! What kind of circus is this?" Huo Anzhi stood up in the private room and was about to leave, but Jin Yingming pulled him back to his seat.
"You want to embarrass your father in this situation?"
Hearing Jin Yingming's reminder, Huo Anzhi sat back in his seat angrily.
He was in his early twenties and this was the first time he had attended the Huo family's mysterious banquet since he became an adult, but he did not expect it to be such a dirty deal.
In his heart, the head of the Huo family has always been the embodiment of justice. Although he has been strict and harsh to them since they were young, he has never seen him do anything out of line.
Today, he had to ask himself, is the Huo family really as peaceful as it appears on the surface?
Finally, the girl was bought by a wealthy hunter businessman for 95 million.
"What a bad taste." Yuri shook his head. He could not accept such a strong taste.
"This girl will have a miserable life in the future." Ollie whistled and leaned back in his chair.
Everyone can see the sexual taste of this wealthy businessman. He just likes one word: abuse.
However, the Brando family has done a lot of bad things in the past few years. Although this girl looks naive, she is not an easy person to deal with.
Her small family made a lot of money by relying on her to move around among the nobles, and countless families were broken up because of her.
In the following time, everyone saw countless boys and girls living in the same cage with wild beasts, all of whom were from the side branches of the Bai family.
Interestingly, the young man who bullied Huo Youshan that day was also present, and he had taken a fancy to a young girl with an exotic look.
Just when he was about to win the girl with 120 million, Evelin suddenly raised her sign.
"One hundred and twenty million and one." The voice of the host in the private room came from the microphone, and the whole audience fell silent.
Everyone then realized that the person bidding the price was none other than Evelin, the apple of the Lan family’s eye.
And as expected, next to her was the Lan family's prince Garland.
Although the young master of a large hunter family had heard of the power of the Lan family, he was like a newborn calf who was not afraid of a tiger.
Not wanting to lose face in such an occasion, he followed him.
"One hundred and thirty million."
"One hundred and thirty million and one"
Evelyn continued to raise her card, and no matter how much the young man bid, Evelyn would only add one more dollar.
If anyone can't see this, then they are a fool.
Evelin didn’t want this auction item at all. It was obvious that she didn’t know how this young man had angered the Princess of the Lan Family, and she was just playing with him.
Two hundred million! "The young master stared at Evelin on the second floor, gritting his teeth and holding up the sign.
This is almost his limit. If he adds more money and takes out so much capital at once, the family company may not be able to bear it and suffer a heavy blow.
He is a nouveau riche, and his family has no deep foundation. He became rich thanks to his father's overnight wealth.
Evelin added another piece, and the young man could no longer keep a smile on his face.
"Two hundred and ten million!"
When the young man finished speaking, Vincent, who was standing opposite Evelin, suddenly raised a sign.
"Three hundred million." The voice of the host in the private room came from the microphone, and the audience gasped again.
Everyone knows that this is the head of the Si family, Vincent.
Evelin looked at him in surprise, and only reacted when she saw Vincent smiling playfully.
He was just being playful and helped her push it.
“Anyone else wants to raise the price?” The host’s face flushed with excitement, and he looked in the direction of Young Master and Evelin, expecting a higher price.
"A country dog is a country dog. He wears a golden robe and goes in and out of high-end places, but he still can't even take out 300 million in his pocket."
At this moment, Garland's contemptuous voice was heard, and Evelyn burst out laughing.
"Children should go back and play house."
Ollie also laughed, they certainly understood why Evelyn did this.
"Three hundred and twenty million." Hearing the whispers and mocking voices of the crowd, the young man raised the price again.
Over the years, he worked hard to join the aristocratic circle and treated people to lavish meals, drinks and entertainment.
He plays the role of a spoiled young master among the wealthy young men who are not doing their jobs properly.
But today Garland laid out the points that he cares about most in front of everyone.
The young man's spirit was the strongest and he could not stand the stimulation. Sure enough, after Evelin bid again, the price reached 330 million.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Evelin spoke up, thinking that this price might be the limit of this young master's family.
"It's boring. I don't want it anymore."
"Then let's wait and see." Garland responded by touching Evelyn's head.
At this time, the host sped up his speech and struck the third hammer.
After the farce ended, everyone felt worried, fearing that they would accidentally upset the little princess of the Lan family.
"He is indeed a nouveau riche, spending all his 300 million fortune to buy a woman, hahaha."
"Your father really raised a good son." Vincent clapped his hands and laughed, with no disguising the sarcasm in his words.
The young man was furious, but was reminded by the people following him that the masters upstairs were not people he could afford to offend.
He could only swallow the broken teeth and blood, and was so angry that he almost fainted.
"The last person to appear is the illegitimate son of the Bai family, Val Brando."
When the host finished speaking, Garland and Evelyn looked at each other in surprise.
Val was unexpectedly caught by the Si family. If he were taken away, it would undoubtedly add a huge difficulty to the mission.
The scarlet curtain opened and Val was wheeled onto the stage in a lion cage.
