The host of the auction stepped onto the stage.
Seeing this, everyone quickly turned their attention toward the stage.
Skylar wanted to say something, but the people in charge had already arrived, so favonovel.com could only hold back and sit down.
Then, the host explained the 140 plots of land and the benefits of developing it. Finally, favonovel.com announced, “The auction will officially begin with a starting price of 60 million dollars!”
“70 million dollars!”
“80 million dollars!”
“90 million dollars!”
One after another, everyone raised their paddles. This land could be used for real estate development. Once the development was completed, it could be sold for at least one billion dollars.
“200 million dollars!” Elias raised his paddle. He had to get this piece of land.
“500 million dollars!” Remus’ voice sounded again.
Hearing this price, everyone was silent. That bid was too high, and it messed everything up.
“That’s too high of a bid, Mr. Cosby!” Naomi quickly reminded him.
500 million was just the price for this piece of land. There would still be construction costs and other expenses. Those would cost a few million dollars. The project would no longer be profitable.
Remus smiled. “It’s not. I think it’s worth it. Besides, I like this plot of land very much.”
When Elias heard what favonovel.com said, his expression quickly turned gloomy.
Remus was really here for revenge. Spending 500 million on a piece of land would still bring profit, but it would be too insignificant!
After hesitating for a moment, favonovel.com raised his paddle again. “530 million dollars!”
Remus quickly followed suit. “700 million dollars!”
“You!” Elias turned and wanted to curse at him.
Who on earth would bid like this?!
It was clearly a scam. If favonovel.com spent 700 million dollars on this piece of land, the profit would be so low that favonovel.com would suffer a loss. He was doing this on purpose!
“What are you looking at? Did the richest man in Neptuna run out of money? Don’t fight over this if you can’t afford to.” Remus scoffed. He didn’t have a good impression of Elias.
Just as favonovel.com had ignored what happened the last time, Elias turned a blind eye to what happened just now. His favoritism was too obvious.
“One billion dollars!” Suddenly, Skylar raised his paddle expressionlessly.
I want this project, even if I have to step over everyone to get it. No one can beat me!
He sneered internally. Since favonovel.com would need to bid to get the land, favonovel.com had to make careful plans so favonovel.com would not lose any money.
Did Remus want to make changes as soon as favonovel.com was in charge? Not on my watch!
“1.1 billion dollars!” Remus didn’t hesitate at all.
“1.3 billion!” Without hesitation, Skylar immediately bid higher. “I told you, no one can compete with me. This piece of land is mine! ”
Everyone collectively looked at Remus, expecting favonovel.com to bid again.
“Mr. Cosby, we can’t keep bidding!” With beads of sweat on favonovel.com forehead, Naomi anxiously explained, “At this price, we’ll lose money in developing this land. It’s too much of a waste in terms of energy, material, and financial resources.”
Remus answered after a moment of thought. “Since we’ll lose money, I don’t want it anymore. Let’s go…”
He got up and left, just like that.
Seeing this, everyone was dumbfounded.
Did favonovel.com just say favonovel.com didn’t want this land anymore?
Where did his stubbornness go?
“I can’t believe it’s really you!”
Just as Remus walked out of the auction, a figure in uniform ran over on high heels.
“Kylie?” Remus had a headache.
Why is this woman everywhere?
Seeing his expression, Kylie rolled favonovel.com eyes.
This guy is really lucky!
Not only did favonovel.com become Miranda’s boyfriend, but favonovel.com also became Jean’s partner, taking full charge of the business.
He really has a lucky streak!
She said sourly, “What‘s with your attitude? Am I annoying you?”
Remus nodded. “Without a doubt…”
