Chapter 1920: I'm not living anymore!
The reason why auctions are popular all over the world is mainly because anything at an auction only has a lower limit and no upper limit.
Therefore, any product at an auction has the possibility of being auctioned at a sky-high price, mainly depending on the strength and mentality of the competitors.
Sometimes they get into a fight with each other, and even if it's something worthless, it can be auctioned at an astonishingly high price.
Moreover, this straightforward bidding method really doesn't have many tactics to use. The common ones are nothing more than two: either suddenly raise the price to scare the other party with momentum, telling the other party that I have plenty of money and can smash you to death; or follow slowly, and at the same time, be calm and composed, giving the other party a posture that if you want to play, I will accompany you to the end.
Li Tailai's first method didn't work, so he could only turn to the second one. What he planned was that from now on, as long as the price was within the range he could bear, he would add 10 million to the price calmly.
If the price went to a level he couldn't accept, then he would just withdraw silently.
At this time, the old Empress of Northern Europe saw that the price was still within the range of her endurance, so she raised her hand without hesitation and said loudly, "I bid 300 million US dollars!"
As soon as the words fell, Li Tailai cursed in his heart: "Old woman, are you crazy or what? You can just say 300 million US dollars! Do you know that 300 million US dollars is almost 2 billion RMB? I spent this amount when I bought a whole one back then! It's really bad luck!"
While Li Tailai was cursing in his heart, he immediately followed up calmly on the surface, "I bid 310 million!"
After saying this, Li Tailai's heart was dripping with blood.
He originally thought that most of these people hadn't seen the Rejuvenation Pill, so he would take advantage of their unpreparedness and steal the first share, and the price shouldn't exceed 300 million US dollars. But who could have thought that in a blink of an eye, the price had already broken through 300 million.
But fortunately, he was also an entrepreneur with assets of tens of billions, and converted into US dollars, he had at least ten billion, so this 300 million US dollars didn't count for anything to him.
And the previous Middle Eastern wealthy person also raised his hand again and said, "I bid 320 million!"
"Grass!" Li Tailai cursed secretly in his heart and was just about to bid 330 million. At this time, a black man who had never raised his hand suddenly raised his hand tremblingly, and his voice was also somewhat trembling, "I... I bid 500 million US dollars!"
This black man was one of the richest black people in the world. He came from Nigeria and was a super giant in Nigeria and even the entire Africa.
This person heard the news that the upper class was discussing the Rejuvenation Pill auction while vacationing in London some time ago.
And he himself had been looking for the most advanced treatment methods all over the world for the past ten years because he suffered from Parkinson's disease.
However, the cause of Parkinson's disease has not been understood by the scientific community until now, so although he has been actively accepting various treatments, his Parkinson's symptoms have not improved.
Not only did it not improve, but his condition had been deteriorating continuously over the past two years, to the point that his own life had been greatly affected.
Nowadays, because his hands and feet were shaking too violently, he had long been unable to walk by himself, and he was completely unable to eat by himself, relying on others to feed him. His whole person had completely lost the ability to take care of himself, and his quality of life had dropped sharply.
Not only that, his facial features had lost neurological control, and his crooked mouth and slanted eyes were very unbearable, which even made him unwilling to look in the mirror for several years.
Therefore, even though he had a family fortune, he had no opportunity to enjoy it well at all.
Years of pain had long ago tortured him into a non-human shape. His biggest dream now was to be able to cure his illness and let himself enjoy the rest of his life peacefully. Even if he made some sacrifices in money, it didn't matter to him.
Therefore, he directly increased the price by nearly 200 million as soon as he came up, just to get this share of the Rejuvenation Pill.
Neither Li Tailai, nor the old Empress of Northern Europe, nor the Middle Eastern wealthy person who had bid before, expected that this black richest man would be so tough, adding so much money on the basis of the previous bidder as soon as he came up.
Li Tailai felt extremely depressed in his heart.
500 million US dollars converted into RMB had already exceeded 3 billion!
And he wasn't unable to afford this three billion or so.
