King's Awakening - Chapter 325: The Bidding Conference Begins!
Chapter 325: Chapter 325: The Bidding Conference Begins!
Sayon, Royal Group.
Since the end of the Cooperation Celebration, both Imperial Group and Jones Group were making their final sprint for their bid in full swing.
This is the most important property project in Sayon in the past few decades, and perhaps even the next few decades.
Whoever emerges victorious in the final bidding will stand at the pinnacle of the Sayon pyramid, becoming as influential as David Herb.
However, to many people’s surprise, Sherry Jones, a mere general manager of a third-tier wealthy family, has become a hot choice for this bidding conference, and some outsiders were even optimistic that she could win the bid.
Of course, the likes of Imperial Group, which is a first-tier wealthy family, are also among the hot choices. However, their series of actions in the previous period have plunged them into a quagmire.
With less than twenty-four hours left until the bidding conference, David Herb, Longman, Amanda, Vincent Mill, and Beckett gathered in the Royal Group to give their final report to White Mitchell.
“The preparations for the bidding conference have been completed and will go ahead as scheduled tomorrow.”
“Imperial Group has mortgaged all its properties to me, seeming to want to fight a desperate battle.”
“The manpower of the construction team has been arranged and can be ready at any time…”
Everyone was reporting their tasks orderly as arranged by White Mitchell, and everything was going according to White Mitchell’s plan.
After listening to everyone’s report, White Mitchell stood up silently, looked down at the whole Sayon through the window of David Herb’s office, and said somewhat emotionally, “It’s finally time for reckoning.
Dear father, can you see everything unfolding? Soon, all those who have hurt you will pay the price they deserve.
For the past five years, all the oppression that has been inflicted upon our family, I will repay them a hundredfold this time.
You keep watching, you must keep watching, I will have them kneel one by one before your grave, confess their sins and pay with their lives!”
White Mitchell clenched his fists, making a crunching sound.
The next morning, the much-anticipated Nezzi New Town Bidding Conference finally arrived.
The bidding conference was held directly on the land that Sherry Jones had hoarded in the Southern Suburb.
After a few days of construction, a grand stage was built on this land that was originally barren.
On the periphery, there were many people from the Royal Group maintaining order, and even many officers from the Patrol could be seen. The importance placed on this conference was evident.
And the major news media had been waiting here overnight, eagerly looking forward to recording this historic moment.
Around ten in the morning, David Herb finally appeared within everyone’s sight.
However, at this moment, David Herb, as the richest man in Sayon, could only follow behind a young man with a straight posture.
This young man was dressed in military uniform, with four dazzling golden stars on his shoulders, his gaze was sharp, and his face was as if it had been cut with a knife and ax, as if he was hiding an enormous momentum, and he appeared very imposing.
This man was the highest commander of the Nezzi Command, Nezzi War King, Mr. Azure Dragon!
At the same time, he was also one of the five War Kings under the White War Department, having a prominent status.
His appearance immediately attracted countless attention, and everyone turned their heads and cast their eyes on him.
Some bidders participating in this bidding conference couldn’t help but try to show up in front of Mr. Azure Dragon, hoping to increase their chances of winning in the bidding.
Even Alan Austin felt restless and wanted to flatter Mr. Azure Dragon by leveraging his relationship with David Herb.
Seeing Alan Austin’s response, Sherry Jones was also itching to move, but White Mitchell beside her slowly spoke, “Do you want to see Mr. Azure Dragon? Do you need me to call him over?”
Hearing this, Sherry Jones couldn’t help but feel a sense of both amusement and exasperation. What was White Mitchell thinking, making jokes at a time like this?
This was an important day concerning his death and survival, yet from morning till now, the only four words written on White Mitchell’s face were: nonchalant and careless!
Yes, White Mitchell’s confidence in Sherry Jones eyes, translates to nonchalance.
However, Sherry Jones didn’t reprimand White Mitchell. She knew that White Mitchell was merely trying not to let herself be too nervous and thereby affect their performance.
Keep in mind that there was a session afterword where they would present their proposal on stage. If they didn’t perform well, all their previous efforts would be in vain.
“Brother, don’t joke around at this time. If Mr. Azure Dragon hears you, it would be terrible.” Sherry Jones advised.
Hearing her words, White Mitchell couldn’t help but give a bitter smile. I wasn’t joking, Could it be that I wasn’t serious enough?
With mixed feelings, White Mitchell had no choice but to say, “Okay, I’ll listen to my wife. But you don’t have to worry either.
Mr. Azure Dragon isn’t going to entertain them. Maybe, he will even severely reprimand them.”
Huh?
Upon hearing this, Sherry Jones was stunned, and then a puzzled look appeared on her face. She couldn’t help but ask, “Really? How could that be possible.”
“Don’t believe it?” White Mitchell smiled faintly, and then with a playful look on his face, he said, “Then how about we make a bet? If I win, you get off work early tonight and go home to warm up the bed for me.”
Hearing this, Sherry Jones’s face turned red instantly, like a ripe apple, and she couldn’t help but smack her lips at White Mitchell, “Hmph! Brother, you’re becoming more and more unscrupulous.”
Seeing Sherry Jones’s shy appearance, White Mitchell laughed heartily.
This commotion fell right into the eyes of Alan Austin, who was preparing to flatter Mr. Azure Dragon, prompting Alan Austin to sneer coldly.
Laughing while on the brink of death? Just wait till I teach you a good lesson in front of Mr. Azure Dragon!” Alan Austin thought grimly.
This wasn’t the occasion to act recklessly. Laughing out loud like White Mitchell, without any consideration for his image, was akin to not taking the bid conference seriously.
If he were to notify Mr. Azure Dragon about such behavior, it would definitely put White Mitchell in a tight spot.
As such, his chances of winning the bid would increase even more.
Thinking of this, Alan Austin quickened his pace and rushed to get in front of Mr. Azure Dragon.
At this moment, there were already two or three bidders gathered in front of Mr. Azure Dragon. With the addition of Alan Austin, only Sherry Jones remained seated, unmoved.
In Alan Austin’s view, such behavior was simply asking for trouble. If you didn’t take this opportunity to please Mr. Azure Dragon, did you plan on waiting till the results of the bidding were announced?
It was simply absurd!
But just as Alan Austin was excited and ready to please Mr. Azure Dragon, Mr. Azure Dragon’s face suddenly darkened, and he coldly uttered a single word—Scram!!!
