One by one, the auction items came out. Some people bid if they liked them, but Kendrick didn't even look at these items and kept staring at his mobile phone all the time.

"The next item is a pair of fine jadeite bracelets,which are handmade by a top carver in our country. The starting price is 45,000 dollars!"

A pair of jadeite bracelets were placed in the tray covered with red cloth.

"Honey, this... Why is it so expensive?" Thewoman looked at the man beside her and showed a look of surprise. These were the bracelets she just said she wanted to buy today.

The man was obviously also frightened by the price of the bracelets.

It was his first auction. He had heard that many of the items at previous auctions were worth only a few thousand dollars, and only a few sold for tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.

So he was so bold as to offer to buy the bracelets just now.

However, this was just the sixth auction item. But the starting price was 45,000 dollars!

It was 45,000 dollars!

He barely had enough money to buy an auction item worth a few thousand dollars, but he definitely couldn't afford an auction item worth 45,000 dollars.

The man's expression was noticed by Robert. Robert leaned against the chair and snorted, "Someone was so arrogant just now that Ithought he was rich, but he couldn't afford this item. Heh."

"What the fuck are you talking about?" The manglared at Robert.

Robert rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not talking about you. Why are you so angry?"

Seeing Robert's contempt, the man flew into a rage. Looking at the jadeite bracelets on the stage, he picked up the number plate beside him and raised it.

"46,500 dollars!"

When Robert saw that the man had fallen into his trap, he stopped talking and began to watch the play.

"Honey, you are so cool."The woman next toRobert leaned against the man's arms in a coquettish manner. She acted like she thought it was too expensive just now, but she didn't mean it. In fact, the more expensive the item, the better she liked it.

The man looked at Robert coldly and proudly.

Robert put on an air of frustration and said, "You only bid once, but you may not end uppaying for it. Stop bragging!"

After the man bid 46,500 dollars, other people bi d one after another.

"49,500 dollars!"

"51,000 dollars!"

In an instant, the price of the bracelets had soared to 51,000 dollars.

Most people stopped bidding on it because it was an ordinary piece of jewelry, not a collectible piece of art.

Most of those who attended the auction were in their 40s and 50s and didn't feel the need to spend a lot more than 45,000 dollars for the bracelets.

After all, there were a lot of other pieces worth more than 45,000 dollars, and the auction wasn't for charity, so it didn't help them avoid taxes.

The man sitting next to Robert saw that no one continued to bid, so he gritted his teeth and said, "52,500 dollars!"

"52,500 dollars going once!"

"52,500 dollars going twice!"

The man was very nervous. He didn't want any more bids, because each time they did so, he'd have to pay more for 3,000 dollars more!

"52,500 dollars going third! Deal!"

The man breathed a sigh of relief when the auctioneer struck the hammer.

The auctioneer shouted, "Congratulations to Mr. Zahn at No.87 on taking this pair of jadeite bracelets!"

Robert smiled slightly. He goaded the man into buying the bracelets just to know who he was. Now that he knew the man's surname is Zahn, it would be easy to find out who he was.

The car belonged to the Bay City project. He was in his twenties and had a family name of Zahn.

So he must be Fermin Zahn, Jacob Zahn's son!
