“Let’s go.”Telvis glanced bitterly at Charlie, then turned around and walked away quickly.After Telvis and the others left.“Mr. Charlie, I sincerely apologize for my foolish nephew causing trouble with you,” Gevin apologized to Charlie respectfully.“Mr. Gevin, you don’t need to feel embarrassed,” Charlie replied, waving his hand.Gevin greatly respected Charlie. Naturally, Charlie didn’t need to pick a fight with him.Gevin sighed with relief after hearing Charlie’s words.Regarding what happened here. Because it occurred outside and far from the auction room, coupled with the noise outside, the incident didn’t attract much attention. Especially from the big bosses inside the auction room.Including Lydia’s father, Shelton. Because Shelton was talking with Jaquon, he was completely unaware of Charlie’s presence here.Currently, Rahil came out of the bathroom.“Mr. Charlie, what happened?” Rahil asked, noticing the tense atmosphere at that moment.“It’s nothing. Just a clown.” Char
David muttered to himself. It had been a long time since anyone dared to challenge him directly. It had been a long time since anyone made him this angry.The rich kids and bosses who were spectators were even more surprised by what had just happened.“How great was that young man earlier that he dared to challenge Mr. David and make him so angry?”“Yeah. Who is he, really? So daring!”The rich kids and bosses who didn’t know Charlie were puzzled.“You guys are clueless! That young man is the new CEO of the Enigma Enterprises branch in San Setillo. Do you know his background? You’ll be surprised when I tell you.” A bald-headed boss who knew about Charlie’s background said with a smile.This boss who knew Charlie had attended a small party hosted by Charlie. So, he knew who Charlie was.“What background?” Everyone around looked very confused.“This new CEO is Mr. Ornell’s grandson!” the bald-headed boss replied.“Mr. Ornell’s grandson?”After everyone heard this, they couldn’t help but
Before arriving, Dasante had already reminded Shelton. Shelton had to be polite when meeting Charlie. As a result, Dasante didn’t think Shelton would behave like this after meeting Charlie.“Mr. Dasante.”Charlie waved to Dasante, signaling that Dasante didn’t need to speak anymore.Immediately after that, Charlie looked at Shelton, then smiled and said, “Mr. Shelton is Right. I am the new CEO of Enigma Enterprises. That’s right. I am Ornell Donovan’s grandson.”“But... but...” Shelton stared at Charlie. He was still a little confused.“At the edge of Lake yesterday, I told you that what you saw was just the surface of the lake. You didn’t know what the bottom of the lake was like. Just like when you met me. You only saw on the surface. In fact, you don’t know anything about me,” said Charlie casually.After hearing that, Shelton sighed deeply. He began to understand in his heart that Charlie was hiding his identity.Shelton thought carefully. With Charlie’s position, creating false i
David also did not participate in the bid. Clearly, he wasn’t interested in this land.In the end, the land was sold for 16 billion to a small local developer.The low-value place was handed over to that small local developer.Of course, the small local developer could only get unattractive land. Because he didn’t have the capital to compete with Visionary Group and Enigma Enterprises to get a good location.At this point, the second land auction began.“This is land number 12 in the development zone with a total area of 5.2 hectares. The land price is very high. The bosses must have calculated it in their hearts. The starting price is 16 billion. The minimum increment in price is 1 billion,” the host announced.“Tsk tsk. The land is located in a prime location on the left side of the development zone. It’s truly a treasure!”“Exactly. The land price is very high. Enigma Enterprises and Visionary Group will surely compete fiercely.”“Who knows who will ultimately succeed in grabbing t
“1.2 trillion! I bid 1.2 trillion!”David, furious, immediately raised the price by 2 billion this time.1.2 trillion.Goodness. 1.2 trillion!The bosses present at the auction were stunned. The fantastic figure made their heads spin.Before the auction began, everyone speculated that there would be a ‘bloodbath’ at today’s land auction.However, no one expected the auction to reach this point.At this moment, Charlie suddenly stood up and looked at David, then said with a smile, “Okay. 1.2 trillion. This land is yours.”Immediately after, Charlie raised his head and looked up at the stage, saying to the host, “Mr. David bid 1.2 trillion. I don’t think anyone else will offer a higher price. Just knock the gavel.”“Oh. Alright!”The bewildered host hurriedly nodded after hearing Charlie’s words.“Tap.” Immediately after that, the host dropped the gavel and simultaneously announced loudly, “Lot number 12 in the development zone, with a bid of 1.2 trillion, belongs to Mr. David!”The pri
“Hush hush! “1.8 ... 1.8 trillion!”The bosses present at the auction took another breath after hearing that fantastic price.Even though they had already gone through previous bidding wars and prepared themselves, upon hearing the staggering figure of 1.8 trillion, their hearts raced even faster.Even in the provincial capital, it was difficult to find land prices as staggering as this.A price like this is enough to make someone the land king of the entire province.At the auction, there were many bosses with capital of less than 1.8 trillion.“1.8 trillion?”Charlie squinted his eyes and looked up at the stage. His gaze was complex.“Mr. David bids at a price of 1.8 trillion. 1.8 trillion once,” the auctioneer on stage shouted until his voice was hoarse, his face reddening.This auctioneer had often led auction events. However, he had never encountered such a staggering bid before.The total price was 1.8 trillion!“1.8 trillion twice! Is there anyone else who wants to bid higher t
As soon as the host spoke, everyone present began to discuss.“The first protected area is a treasure. It’s also close to the downtown core of San Setillo.”“It’s a shame this land is listed as a protected area prohibited from development in this province. Development has been banned for 50 years. There’s no point in buying it.”“Yes, if this piece of land could be developed, it would surely become a treasure. But unfortunately, development is prohibited, and it’s pointless to buy it.”“If I remember correctly, at last year’s auction, this piece of land was sold out, right?”Everyone whispered and voiced their thoughts.For the moment, no one bid. The atmosphere froze.A piece of land that couldn’t be developed, even at the lowest price of 100 billion, no one glanced at it.“Is anyone bidding for this protected area?” the host asked again.“100 billion!”A loud voice rang out.Everyone circulated their gaze following that voice and saw the person holding up the plaque to make the bid.
Of course, they weren’t envious because they knew that with their company’s capabilities, they couldn’t develop a project as large as that one.But David was different.“Why! Why! Why wasn’t I informed about this?!” David yelled in anger.If David knew that this piece of land could be developed, he would surely take it and try to get the land no matter what. Because its investment value was enormous.And because of that, was this treasure land easily acquired by Charlie for 100 billion?With this outcome, there was no doubt that Charlie was the biggest winner of today’s auction.“Mr. David, what do you say? The land I own is even better many times over than the two best pieces of land you obtained. I only spent 100 billion to get it, while you? 3 trillion!” Charlie said with a smile.“You... you... you!”David trembled with anger, his face looked grim, and it felt like he was about to explode now.“Do you want to know why? Then I’ll tell you. This land is indeed prohibited from develo
