Everyone present today held him in high regard, yet this young kid was showing him nothing but arrogance. He had attempted to undermine Jack on several occasions, which was incredibly frustrating!<\/p>\n<p>What made matters worse was that he actually had the audacity to scold him!<\/p>\n<p>This kid must have a death wish!<\/p>\n<p>Those at the auction were equally stunned.<\/p>\n<p>Who was this young man, and what gave him the nerve to confront and chastise Jack? Was he truly tired of living? Jack was a Feng Shui master with countless methods to deal with someone like him without shedding a drop of blood!<\/p>\n<p>Despite Jack\u2019s growing fury, he remained calm and collected, determined to acquire the clam at a lower price. He managed to keep his cool and smiled as he said, \u201cMy friend, I understand that we\u2019ve had some misunderstandings earlier today, but this seems a bit excessive. If you\u2019re bidding against me solely because of that minor issue, wouldn\u2019t that be a bit vengeful?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jack had his sights set on securing the clam for fifteen million dollars. He recognized that engaging in a direct confrontation with Charlie would most likely push the next bid past thirty million dollars.<\/p>\n<p>He didn\u2019t want to spend that much money today!<\/p>\n<p>So, he held back and hoped that Charlie would reconsider his bid.<\/p>\n<p>He planned to settle the score with him after successfully acquiring the clam for fifteen million dollars!<\/p>\n<p>Charlie, however, saw right through Jack\u2019s intentions. With a sneer, he retorted, \u201cStop with the nonsense; I\u2019m interested in this clam too. If you can\u2019t afford my asking price, then feel free to withdraw your bid!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Things were escalating again!<\/p>\n<p>Oh my!<\/p>\n<p>This young man had actually dared to tell Jack to back out of the bidding\u2026<\/p>\n<p>That was a bit much, wasn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n<p>Jack wore a frosty expression, but in his effort to save money, he spoke gently again. \u201cI really want this clam. Can you please let me have it?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Charlie looked at him coolly before responding, \u201cWhy should I? Do I even know you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then, he added, \u201cHey, can you just let me know if you can afford to bid against me?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jack\u2019s expression turned sour. No one had ever dared to speak to him like that!<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, this kid couldn\u2019t be more than twenty years old! He was even younger than all of Jack\u2019s disciples and grandchildren!<\/p>\n<p>Jack\u2019s annoyance bubbled over, and he dropped the pretense. \u201cIt\u2019s shocking that someone would refuse to show respect to me, the esteemed Mr. Yaleman! Alright then. Since this is a fair competition, let the highest bidder take the treasure home! I\u2019m eager to see just how wealthy you really are and how you plan to take this clam from me!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With that, Jack raised his hand and declared, \u201cFifty million dollars!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As soon as he made his bid, murmurs spread through the audience once again.<\/p>\n<p>It felt like the auction hall had transformed into a high-stakes gambling den, with the atmosphere becoming increasingly electric.<\/p>\n<p>The rules were straightforward!<\/p>\n<p>It all came down to who had more cash!<\/p>\n<p>The one with the most money would reign supreme!<\/p>\n<p>Jack had a clear strategy in mind. He believed that if he engaged Charlie in a gradual bidding war, it would drag on indefinitely. Thus, he aimed to intimidate Charlie with a staggering bid that would leave him breathless. That\u2019s why he called for fifty million dollars right away, confident that Charlie wouldn\u2019t be able to match it!<\/p>\n<p>But Charlie maintained a straight face before he responded, \u201cOne hundred million dollars!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The auction price had doubled again!<\/p>\n<p>The tension in the auction hall was palpable.<\/p>\n<p>Within mere minutes, the price of the treasure had skyrocketed tenfold! This was a remarkable and unforgettable moment in auction history!<\/p>\n<p>At that moment, Adam couldn\u2019t help but shout, \u201cCharlie! Are you certain you have that kind of money, or are you just putting on a show?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Charlie couldn\u2019t help but burst into laughter. \u201cYes, I have the funds right now. Why? Are you still skeptical? Let me clarify\u2014 the black card I\u2019ve been using for all my purchases belongs to the Quinton family. Your uncle gave it to me. So, is this truly unexpected? Are you surprised?\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center\" id=\"chapter-list\"><strong> <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>\u201c`<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201c`html Jack was losing his mind!
