Chapter 1056: Left a Long Time Ago
During the break, the waiter once again served tea and desserts.
Jiang Tingxu could finally get a chance to ask.
“Why must you bid for that island?”
‘Don’t you say that it was for me!’, Jiang Tingxu thought to herself.
Everyone knew that it was easy to own an island, but it was difficult to raise the island.
The price of raising an island was much more expensive than buying it.
Later on, the cost of various facilities and so on would burn a hole in the wallet!
Why would someone spend 300 million US dollars for such trouble?
The man smirked. He stretched out his hand and pinched Jiang Tingxu’s nose.
“Well… From what I’ve found out, there is oil underneath that island!”
Hiss!
If that was the case, even if it was 3 billion US dollars, they had to get it!
When they succeeded in the oil exploitation later, the return would be more than a hundred-fold!
He did not get the news through his effort. He once heard it by chance from somewhere else.
Before this, he was not sure who was the one who had found it.
Now, it seemed that the guest in Room 3 must be closely related to them!
Knock, knock…
At this moment, someone knocked on the door.
Mo Boyuan reluctantly let go of his wife’s hand and shouted towards the door,
“Come in.”
A man came in and said,
“President Mo, I’ve got it. The person in Room 3 is from the Sofis Group.”
“Oh?”
Sofis?
What a coincidence. This name popped up so often recently.
Wasn’t Sofis Group supposed to be their partner in the previous halted project?
Tan Yiming had also mentioned this before. Shengs.h.i.+ Entertainment which was Yu Lan’s company was a subsidiary of Sofis Group.
Mo family and Tan family, was it just a coincidence?
The man waved his hand. The subordinate tactfully left.
The five minutes were almost up. The soothing music stopped, and the auctioneer’s voice sounded again.
“The auction will begin again. The guest in Room 2 asked for 300 million!
“300 million going once, 300 million going twice, 300 million…”
“320 million!”
Jiang Tingxu had been hiding up so that she did not have to press that thing. Every time she pressed it, it felt like she was losing her own heart.
The man smiled disdainfully, and his slender fingers gently pressed the b.u.t.ton again.
“350 million!”
F*ck!
Oh f*ck!
The auctioneer got excited too. It wasn’t about the price. He had seen a much higher bid than this, but he had never seen an island that was so expensive!
“350 million going once, 350 million going twice, 350 million going thrice!”
“Congratulations to Room 2 for winning this private island!”
Violent applause was heard. Obviously, everyone was excited!
However, Room 3 was an exception.
At this moment, both of the men in Room 3 had extremely ugly expressions.
“Idiot!”
“Who is the person in Room 2?” One of them questioned angrily.
The person beside him said with a gloomy expression,
“Who else if it’s not J.M.M? I can’t think of anyone else!”
Indeed, J.M.M. was famous for being generous.
Money was nothing to them!
The main reason was that J.M.M. was indeed rich. Moreover, they could earn money much faster than spending it.
“Let’s go and meet them.”
When the two of them reached in front of Room 2, they saw the waiter who was cleaning up.
“Where is the guest?”
The waiter was slightly stunned and answered,
“He left a long time ago.”
