"One million gold coins, going once. Is there anyone else?" The butler continued to call out.
The rich merchants below all shook their heads. This price was far beyond their expectations.
In their estimation, 700,000 gold coins was a reasonable price. Any higher and it would be a loss.
One million gold coins was enough for them to build another manor, although the land would be a bit difficult to find.
Seeing that no one answered him, the butler had to call out again, "One million gold coins, going twice."
This time, he called out faster. He thought that this price had already reached the peak, and it was also beyond his satisfaction. He didn't want to waste time and drag things out here.
When he called out the second time, still no one answered. He raised his hammer and was ready to call out the third time. The deal was successful.
But at this time, Xu Tianyu, who had been sitting beside Brighton, began to move. He slowly raised his hand and called out.
"One million one hundred thousand gold coins."
Hearing the voice, the butler used a lot of willpower to withdraw his hammer. Then he called out in surprise.
"One million one hundred thousand gold coins. Mister around offers one million one hundred thousand gold coins. Miss, do you want to increase the price?"
The butler asked excitedly. Of course, he didn't mind that the higher the price, the more benefits he would get.
Hearing Xu Tianyu's bid, Ou Yanghong glanced at Xu Tianyu. Her delicate face showed some anger.
If it wasn't for him, the manor would be hers.
"I offer one million two hundred thousand. Boy, if you have the ability, give me more money." Ou Yanghong didn't forget to threaten Xu Tianyu.
But Xu Tianyu acted as if he didn't see it and raised his hand again.
"One million five hundred thousand gold coins."
"You …"
Hearing Xu Tianyu's bid, Ou Yanghong's whole body trembled. She was so angry.
It wasn't that she couldn't take out one million five hundred thousand gold coins, but it was more than she could use. If she continued to bid, it might affect their business in the city.
Most importantly, the other party didn't take her seriously at all. She, Ou Yanghong, had never been so angry. Since she was young, everyone had been accommodating her.
Even Murong Bei from the Murong family had to run away when he saw her. Where did this wild child come from? How dare he talk back to her?
"Hmph, Hua Gu, go back and find someone to take care of him for me, then take back the manor for me."
Ouyang Hong said coldly.
Now that there were so many rich merchants and nobles here, even if she was angry, she couldn't throw a tantrum here. However, once they left this place, she would teach Xu Tianyu a lesson.
As for Xu Tianyu, as soon as he finished bidding, Brighton gratefully gave him a hug.
"Tenyu, thank you so much. You've helped me this time. If you need anything in the future, you can look for me directly."
From Brighton's point of view, Xu Tianyu was offering such a high price to help him. He didn't think his manor was worth the price.
Moreover, if the people outside knew that his manor was sold for such a high price, it would be able to shut many people's mouths. Moreover, it would be a very honorable thing for him to say.
Therefore, Brighton thought that Xu Tianyu was helping him and trying to get on his good side. Of course, he knew how to behave and hurriedly gave his promise.
"Brighton, you don't have to do this. I like your manor very much. It's worth the price."
Xu Tianyu said with a smile. He really liked this manor. It was big enough, and he wouldn't need to change houses in the future. Most importantly, it was cheap. One million five hundred thousand gold coins was nothing compared to getting on Brighton's good side.
With Baron Brighton's help in the future, his business in the city would only become better.
