Chapter 81: Auction! Long Country is a Shill!

The driver quickly kept his eyes straight ahead while driving; as an employee, he could not pry into his boss's private affairs—that was the rule.

The deep kiss lasted about five or six minutes.

Only then did Han Han Han Yajing shove Lin Yi away.

At that moment, Han Han Han Yajing's face was as red as a fresh apple, complementing her youthful, captivating, and stunningly beautiful features.

It had to be said that even Lin Yi was momentarily stunned by the sight.

Seeing Lin Yi gazing at her with such infatuation, Han Han Han Yajing felt a touch of grievance in her heart,

after all, her first kiss, cherished for so many years, was now gone.

Yet, she did not dislike the sensation she had just experienced.

Lin Yi gently leaned close to her ear and said with a smile:

"Once I stamp my mark, you won't be able to escape my grasp. Xiaojing, be my girlfriend."

Han Han Han Yajing's face immediately flushed red, and she gently nodded.

"Haha!" Seeing her agree, Lin Yi immediately burst into laughter.

Perhaps because their relationship was now officially confirmed, when the two went to Huangpu District to eat pork rib rice cakes, all barriers between them vanished completely.

You feed me a piece, I feed you a piece.

It was truly exceedingly sweet.

This caused many men nearby to look at Lin Yi with envy, drooling openly.

After all, even in the Demon Capital, a girl as beautiful as Han Han Han Yajing was rarely seen.

That night, Lin Yi naturally did not ask Han Han Han Yajing to stay outside overnight,

for she had only just agreed to be his girlfriend; asking her to stay immediately would have appeared overly impatient.

Lin Yi understood well that going too far was as bad as falling short.

At this, Han Han Han Yajing also breathed a sigh of relief.

What she feared most was Lin Yi forcing her; although she personally did not dislike him,

it was obvious that she could not accept such matters just yet.

In the blink of an eye, time arrived at the evening of the next day.

After chatting with Han Han Han Yajing for a while, it finally reached exactly 11:00 PM Beijing time.

In Lin Yi's temporary rest area at Fengyi Technology,

he had now made all his preparations.

Yes! The auction for the Ford, currently the world's number one aircraft carrier, was about to begin.

At this moment, not only him, but everyone who knew of the DWS platform, including representatives of the world's major nations, had gathered on the DWS platform's website.

Although most of these people and nations were not qualified to participate in the bidding,

after all, a ten-million-dollar deposit was not something just anyone could produce.

After all, a ten-million-dollar security deposit is not something just anyone can produce.

most people wanted to witness history.

After all, this was the first time in human history that so many nations had participated in an auction for an aircraft carrier,

and moreover, this carrier was not an outdated model, but the world's most advanced one.

It could be said that whoever successfully won the auction

would only need to deploy carrier-based aircraft to immediately form a combat force.

Precisely because of this, many nations were extremely interested in this auction.

And for the sake of interests, Lin Yi had stipulated in advance that this auction would adopt a real-name bidding system.

In other words, those who paid the deposit could bid on behalf of their respective nations.

Such as the Ugly Nation and Little Japan.

As for why the DWS platform called this a judicial auction,

it was naturally because all laws governing this auction fell under the platform's jurisdiction.

Here, even if you were the Ugly Nation, it would be useless.

If Lin Yi was provoked, he could directly ban the Ugly Nation's account and even refuse to return that ten-million-dollar deposit.

It was precisely for this reason that it was called a judicial auction.

Ultimately, the right to interpret the law belonged solely to the platform.

Time ticked by second by second; with about ten minutes remaining until the auction began,

the visitor traffic to the Long Nation flagship store suddenly surged at an extreme speed.

In just a short time, millions of people had flooded in.

At this moment, network liaisons from the Ugly Nation, Long Nation, Mao Xiong, Ah San, Little Japan, and the Dog Tycoon had all entered the Dark Web.

As the time approached midnight,

a countdown suddenly appeared on the Dark Web.

10... 9... 8...!

As the seconds ticked by,

it finally reached zero, and the website's display suddenly changed.

In the center of the site, an auctioneer wearing a mask and glasses appeared.

Holding a small gavel, he stood before the auction table and said in English:

"Welcome to all guests following the Long Nation non-official flagship store who have entered the judicial auction livestream...

I am your judicial auctioneer, Long Yi!"

At this moment, sitting before a computer in the command room of the Capital Security Bureau, Wang Luchuan looked at the bureau's cybersecurity officer and said:

"Can you analyze the characteristics of this person called Long Yi and compare them against the database?"

"Yes!" the security officer replied.

"Then record the video first; after the auction concludes, we will perform the database comparison!"

"Then record the video first; after the auction concludes, we will perform the database comparison!"

"Understood!" the cybersecurity officer said.

However, he then glanced behind him,

However, he then glanced behind him,

Many generals wearing star insignia on their shoulders were watching the livestream with rapt attention.

"Alright, no more nonsense; let us begin tonight's judicial auction now.

The first lot is one Ford-class aircraft carrier, the most advanced in the world...."

Speaking to this point, Long Yi paused before continuing:

"There is no need for me to state the specific data of the Ford class. Bidding now begins; the starting price is one billion US dollars, and each bid must be no less than ten million US dollars."

Upon hearing this quote, many netizens in the livestream room could only sigh.

This was destined to be a competition between nations.

Inside the Dragon Nation's National Security command center, the cybersecurity personnel responsible for liaison quickly discovered a calculator-like button beside the livestream window.

It bore the ten digits from 0 to 9.

"Then let the judicial auction commence; please, everyone, place your bids!"

Immediately after a brief silence,

a set of numbers appeared on the computer screen.

Little Japan: 1.5 billion US dollars.

Instantly, many viewers were astonished.

Some among them even knew that Little Japan was not permitted to possess aircraft carriers, let alone a nuclear-powered carrier of the Ford class.

Fortunately, this global judicial auction lacked a subtitle function;

otherwise, the livestream room would surely have been flooded with countless voices of doubt.

However, before half a minute had passed,

Mao Xiong: 2 billion US dollars.

Dog Tycoon: "3 billion US dollars."

Ugly Nation: "4 billion US dollars."

As soon as the auction began, the price skyrocketed as if riding a rocket.

Meanwhile, on the Dragon Nation's side, after the cybersecurity personnel received authorization from the group of generals behind them,

they immediately initiated Dragon Nation's first bid.

Dragon Nation: "8 billion US dollars."

In truth, many people found Dragon Nation's bid utterly incomprehensible,

since in their understanding, the DWS platform belonged to Dragon Nation.

Why, then, was Dragon Nation bidding against itself?
