Chapter 87 Respect

 

“A hundred and ten million!”

 

 

Just when everyone was still in shock at the starting bid, someone from the private rooms on the second floor had already increased it.

It was followed by another bid from one of the private rooms.

“A hundred and fifty million!”

 

In a blink of an eye, the lavender jade figurine’s price escalated to a hundred and fifty million.
