Chapter 1312 Queen of Ice(1/2)
"Fourty billion!"
Rockefeller Jr. did not give up.
"Damn it, there is no way to compare with the guys who have occupied state-owned resources. If you just dig up the magic stone veins underground, you will get a lot of gold coins!",
The God of Cheap felt it was unfair, but then he thought, everything in Delankfurt also belonged to Downton. If he was willing to be a tyrant, he would have millions of slaves.
Of course, that's a stupid way to catch all the money.
"Fifty billion!"
Downton once again shouted out the sky-high price, which made the guests' jaws drop. Will you bid? Increase the price by 10 billion at a time. Who are you trying to scare? Well, they must admit that he did bring many people to the auction.
It was so frightening that not even a few wealthy families were so heroic.
"Sixty billion!"
Young Rockefeller added that he was determined to win. When he was about to die, he could pierce the dagger into the heart and prolong his life. Maybe he could turn the tide of the battle. In the future, he could continue to look for the resurrection treasure, or directly ask the Pope for help.
He casts the great resurrection spell.
"So domineering, Downton is going to lose!"
As soon as a guest finished speaking, he heard Downton bidding.
"Seventy billion!"
Downton didn't hesitate at all, he was full of pressure.
"Are these two people crazy?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.
The guests were completely dumbfounded. What do you mean by mistaking money? That was 70 billion. The annual output value of many second-rate countries could not reach this figure.
"Eighty billion, huh, if you haven't prepared 100 billion, don't bother!"
Little Rockefeller's teasing, which seemed like he had a chance to win, was actually because of his guilty conscience. He lost his composure for the first time. In the past, when attending auctions, he always spent money on people and was too lazy to talk nonsense. But today, Downton's performance made him lack of confidence.
.
"One hundred billion!"
Sissi called out the price, tit for tat, "You don't have to worry about how much money we have. If you want it, it all depends on whether your wallet is big enough!"
hiss!
The sound of gasping echoed through the hall. Sissi loved Downton to death. No need to ask about the money, the princess must have paid for it on his behalf.
"Your Highness, do you really want to help him?"
Rockefeller was not asking for a price. Even if he had already been appointed as his next home, spending so much money was too exaggerated and the old men in the family council would not agree.
Sissi shrugged her shoulders. She originally planned to say that Downton was her boyfriend and force him to admit it, but looking at his side face, the princess couldn't bear to play such a trick after all.
"No matter how much you add, I will still have one billion more than you!"
The price Downton said was not too much, but it made young Rockefeller feel his determination, so he hesitated.
"He may want to give up, but is it worth spending 100 billion to buy a dagger. Even if it is an epic weapon?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.
Puskas expressed his opinion. "It is true that it can keep you alive, but carrying it will also greatly reduce your vigilance. In a desperate situation, you cannot burn the boat. Because you will think of me.
And the Immortal Dagger."
"I'm not using it for myself!"
Downton shook his head.
"That is……"
Puskas looked at Sissi. There is no need for her, Your Highness. With Similian II’s love for her, she definitely has more than a dozen life-saving epic magic costumes. This little loli is not easy to die, so only Elaine is left.
.
"Brother, there's no need to buy it for me, it's too expensive!"
Elaine also figured it out, was shocked, and quickly declined. That was 100 billion gold coins, tens of millions of people in Frankfurt and several years of taxes.
"Don't worry about it."
Downton frowned.
"No, I don't want it."
Elaine was a rare disobedient and said, "Put that money into construction, and the country will achieve great development."
“One hundred billion can buy a life, I think it’s worth it!”
Downton refused, "I can't stay with you forever, so let the dagger protect you. As long as you can come back, I won't lose you!"
"elder brother!"
Seeing Downton's doting gaze on her, Elaine suddenly jumped into his arms and hugged his waist tightly. Her chest was hot and filled with emotion. She felt that she was the best person in the world.
The happiest girl.
"Idiot, I am your brother!"
Downton stroked Elaine's long hair.
"No wonder after being a common girl for more than ten years, Elaine still doesn't complain about Downton. She has such a loving brother who will not change it for several princesses!"
The head maid lamented that Downton was the kind of man who would give up his life for Elaine.
Hu Tao is not envious, because she knows that the more critical she is, her elder brother will sacrifice his life without hesitation.
Of course, she will too.
"Downton, congratulations!"
After careful consideration, Rockefeller Jr. gave up.
"Thanks!"
The reason why Downton is so persistent is because he possesses the Great Resurrection Technique, and when combined with the Heart of Darkness, it can save his life.
"My brother's chest is so warm. How long has it been since he hugged me? He really doesn't want to let go!"
Elaine's cheek was pressed against Downton's chest, and she suddenly felt sad. Why couldn't she marry him if she had to be his sister? No, wait, she is not related to him by blood?
Thinking of this, Elaine suddenly raised her head and looked at Downton. Her cheeks turned red uncontrollably and she was confused, "Do you want to kiss him?"
"I haven't hugged you enough yet!"
Hutao stabbed Elaine in the waist, then swooped onto Downton's back and hugged his neck.
"Are you going to strangle me?"
Downton joked.
"Hate!"
Elaine, who was about to stand on tiptoes to kiss Downton, was startled. She rolled her eyes at Hu Tao angrily, and then she thought this was a great opportunity, so she kissed her brother on the lips, "Thank you!"
The dull Downton was completely unaware of his sister's feelings, but Cheap God and Homer were grinning at the sight. This was not a good thing.
The bidding for the grand finale item ended and the guests' energy was exhausted. Just as they were about to enjoy the banquet, the auctioneer suddenly spoke again.
"Wait a minute, everyone, the owner of the Heart of Darkness has decided to give the dagger to the Duke of Downton for free!"
At first hearing, the guests didn't react at all. After a few seconds, loud exclamations rang out. That was 100 billion gold coins. How could you give it away so easily?
"Wait a minute, the auctioneer just said that it was Prince Leon who caught Jack the Ripper, so isn't he the owner of this dagger?"
"Why did Your Highness give him the dagger? Aren't the father and son both crazy? There are many words in Wucuo Novel Network"
"The guy who likes to wear iron armor has always been mysterious. Who knows what he is thinking?"
The guests were talking a lot. The Iron Masked Prince has always been known for his mystery, but his methods have made countless nobles and businessmen tremble with fear. You must know that he has spared no effort to suppress the noble class since he has been in power for fifteen years. Only then
Let domestic conflicts ease, otherwise rebellion will definitely spread.
It is precisely because of this that although the nobles hate him, they are willing to be ruled by him. Because the empire is crawling out of the mire that is difficult to return.
"Is Iron Mask's brain broken?"
Charles was so jealous that he almost vomited blood. One night, Downton received two gifts, both of which were almost worth the assets of a wealthy family.
"What is Leon thinking?"
Black Charlie threw the cup again.
"If you had understood, you wouldn't have been suppressed by him for so many years."
Freya curled her lips, her mother liked Leon, and it was not just as simple as her biological son. If Leon was not low-key, he was also a genius like Heinrich that attracted much attention.
"It seems you are quite popular!"
Puskas teased.
The dinner party began. Everyone moved to the palace hall. Downton and the others undoubtedly became the center of the banquet, and they were the big shots that everyone else rushed to meet.
Not to mention the duke, even the royal family members of third-rate countries were not qualified to approach. The princesses gathered together. They couldn't find a chance to strike up a conversation, and their faces looked sad for a while.
"Downton!"
To be continued...
