Of course, maybe there was something wrong with my expression and he misunderstood.

I apologize again, I really didn't mean to instruct him to do that.

I didn’t mean to offend you.”

Luke didn't believe this argument, "If you like it, you can spend money to buy it. Don't use your imagination again in the future."

"You're right, I also want to buy your out-of-print vinyl record. Money is not an issue." For the past two days, Jim has been thinking about how to resolve the conflict with Luke.

He and Luke will have a conflict entirely because of this out-of-print vinyl record, and this kind of record is extremely precious and rare. Luke will inevitably mention this vinyl record when bragging to his friends in the future.

And every time I mention records, it reminds the other person of something unpleasant, which is not good.

Jim doesn't want to be remembered by a person who may become a high-ranking police officer in the future. The gang's business is in the gray industry chain, and it is easy for the other party to take advantage of him.

Jim decided that the evil started with the record and ended with the record.

The solution is simple, buy Luke's vinyl records at a high price and leave a good impression on him.

From now on, when I think of vinyl records, I can think of the benefits of buying them at a high price.

Don't ask for merit, but ask not to worry about it.

"Unfortunately, you are too late. The vinyl record has been handed over to the auction house for auction." Even if Luke did not agree to the auction house, he would not sell it directly to Jim.

"Which auction house? I really like that record and I want to participate in the auction."

"Calles Auction House."

"Can I participate in the auction?"

"America is a free country. It's your freedom to buy the records you like. It has nothing to do with me."

"You are right, I will definitely participate in the auction."

Luke smiled, "Good luck, want to come in and get some coffee?"

"No, it's time for me to go. My wife is waiting for me to have dinner at home." After Jim finished speaking, he turned and left. He walked for about tens of meters before leaving in a car on the side of the road.

Luke got home, took a shower, and had some food.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the online auction officially started.

Luke poured a glass of red wine and sat next to the computer to watch the bidding.

There is a detailed introduction and photos about the record on the bidding page. The starting price is 400,000 US dollars, and each bid is no less than 10,000 US dollars.

Soon the first bidder, whose account name was Lafite, bid $410,000.

At 8:10, a second bidder appeared, with the account name Jasmine, bidding $420,000.

8:15...

Around nine o'clock, the bidding price reached $450,000.

The auction went up by $50,000 in one hour, and Luke was quite satisfied. After all, there were still 23 hours of bidding left.

Luke stared for another hour, and the bidding price increased again, reaching $470,000.

It probably wouldn't have gone up too much, so Luke stopped looking at it, washed up and went to sleep.

The next morning, Luke got up immediately to check and found that the price had risen to US$490,000.

Not bad, it has met his expectations.

When he went to work during the day, Luke didn't show it on his face, but he was still a little worried in his heart. However, he held back and did not look at the computer during the process.

The auction price has reached his psychological level, and he can accept it even if it doesn't go up.

After get off work in the evening, Luke immediately turned on his computer to check and found that the bidding price reached US$650,000.

Luke was a little surprised, this was beyond his expectation.

Take another look at the bidder’s account name, Strange House Antique Shop.
