CHAPTER 526: CHAPTER 526: THRILLING! MONEY MAKES MONEY, JUST SIT AND COUNT THE MONEY!

Five big shots? Six hundred million! Oh my gosh!

The auctioneer stoked the atmosphere, making it ever more tense.

Those wanting to bid on Plot #1, like Gu Pingzhi, Sun Jiao, Sun Yunyun, etc., felt their hearts almost leaping out of their chests, while the onlookers were infected by the frenzy, stretching their necks and holding their breaths.

Only a young girl in white at a round table by the window continued to smile lazily, playing carelessly with her smartwatch.

It was as if a multimillion-dollar project meant nothing to her.

Upon closer look, her smartwatch was actually like a smartphone, equipped with all sorts of trendy apps.

And what she was looking at was the hottest live-streaming sales platform, "Shark."

"Hm, I get it, live-streaming sales are about performing a script on a virtual stage, attracting people to buy your stuff. Hmm, interesting, and you can even tip like Xiao Sha’s Silver Alliance Hierarch... Little Minnow, do you think putting Xiao Sha’s comic on here for live-streaming would be good?"

Xi Rubao’s lip twitched: "Sis, I’ve never seen anyone selling comics through live-streaming before."

"Huh? Can’t you sell anything? Ancestor saw someone selling worn panties and some small clips..."

"Sis, this app is really unhealthy!"

Afraid that his big sister would be led astray by the live-streaming app, Little Minnow, feeling like a nervous parent catching their kid watching something inappropriate on TV, quickly pointed to the auction stage to divert Zuzi’s attention:

"Sis, look, the bid for Plot #1 has already soared to 650 million, everyone is getting bloodshot from the competition!"

Zuzi glanced casually at the stage.

Gu Pingzhi was holding up a placard, shouting "660 million!"

The scene went quiet for a moment.

The bidders were frantically calculating if it was still worth the chase.

Zuzi tapped the absorbed Gu Xizhi in front: "Shout 680 million against him."

Gu Xizhi shuddered in fear: "Zuzi, we, we don’t have that much money, and we can’t get that much in loans either. Besides, didn’t you say I shouldn’t be greedy?"

Zuzi gave a slight smile: "Just play with him."

Qin Tao: "Zuzi told you to shout, so go ahead."

"Alright, wifey," Gu Xizhi, trembling with fear, quietly shouted "680 million."

The scene erupted with another round of exclamations.

Immediately, a big shot followed with "690 million."

Gu Pingzhi, desperate to get this plot, fumed with smoke.

Dammit, they’re squeezing him!

But he had to grit his teeth and follow.

Otherwise, if the plot really fell into a big shot’s hands, or if that poor guy Gu Xizhi snatched it away with a loan, he’d cough up blood?

Gu Pingzhi turned back to ask Sun Jiao: "How much do you still have on hand?"

Sun Jiao gritted her teeth: "Hubby, didn’t I invest all my money with you?"

"I’m talking about your dowry!"

"There’s... still about 80 million left..." Sun Jiao reluctantly revealed.

Gu Pingzhi, while saying "hurry and transfer it all to me," also complained "it’s too little!," then turned to ask Sun Yunyun: "How much do you still have?"

Sun Yunyun: "Uncle, I only have 5 million left, it’s for a small apartment for college."

Gu Pingzhi: "Give it up! We must get this plot today, if we don’t win it, the millions you have are dead money; only by getting a big project can money generate more money, and you can just sit and wait to count money! Otherwise, it’s a lifetime of being a poor worker!"

Sun Jiao and Sun Yunyun exchanged a glance, finally making up their minds.

"Alright, hubby, I fully support you."

"Uncle, I’ll listen to you."

Doing nothing but waiting for money to generate more money is indeed a temptation most cannot resist.
