People in the Republic of China era began to rise from industry.

Lyndon Sowers deliberately raised the price, and Lin Yi certainly wouldn't comply.

He came to the US to make money, not to contribute.

If you want to do charity, you have to do it in China.

Hearing him say that, Sheng Aiyi, who was initially a little anxious, immediately calmed down.

She was initially worried that Lin Yi would follow Lin Deng's lead in bidding out of spite.

Two million US dollars is equivalent to five million French dollars.

Even she felt a pang of heartache at the thought of spending so much money here.

It would only make the Americans present see it as a joke.

No one will applaud a person who is irrational.

However, while she appreciated Lin Yi's composure, Sheng Aiyi was unhappy that he was showing off in front of her.

Having spent some time with him, she believed she had figured out Lin Yi's temperament.

It can be said that they never fight a battle they are not confident of winning.

They always think three steps ahead before taking action.

Although it's unclear what tricks Lin Yi has up his sleeve now, how he could get the phoenix crown back from Linden with just 300,000.

But since this guy dared to bet on this, he must be confident.

With a quick glance, Sheng Aiyi laughed and said, "What kind of skill is it to spend money? If you really have the ability to get the phoenix crown back without spending a penny, that would be truly impressive."

The two were playing mind games.

The host on stage was now extremely anxious.

The voice shrilly rang out the second sentence: "Two million, the second time!"

"Is there anyone else bidding?"

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a royal treasure from China, and it holds extraordinary significance!"

As he shouted this, his eyes almost shot out two beams of light, which struck Lin Yi directly.

Unfortunately, Lin Yi didn't even glance at him.

Staring at Sheng Aiyi, who had a smile on her lips, he said, "Seventh Miss, aren't you being a bit unreasonable?"

"Why, you don't dare to gamble?"

Sheng Aiyi looked at him defiantly.

"...Heh, is there anything in this world I wouldn't dare to do?"

"Seventh Miss, you underestimate me too much."

Lin Yi chuckled and then asked, "But since it's a bet, what does Miss Seven plan to use as the stake?"

"If the stakes are too low, it's better not to gamble."

"I'll grant you one request, anything is fine."

Having seen through Lin Yi's true intentions, Sheng Aiyi offered the most generous terms.

This almost made Lin Yi's lips curl into a smile.

Sure enough, women with a strong competitive spirit are easily fooled!

She didn't even consider that since she was confident she could buy it for 300,000, she could certainly get Linden, who was about to receive the phoenix crown, to give it to her.

For the people present, losing two million or losing one million seven hundred thousand makes no difference!

Unaware that she had fallen into a trap, Sheng Aiyi eagerly asked, "What about your bet?"

"If I lose, I will also grant Miss Seven one request, anything is fine."

"A gentleman's word is his bond?"

"Don't worry, men keep their word."

"If I lose, I'll bark like a dog even if Miss Seven makes me."

After Lin Yi finished speaking casually, the host, who was already looking indignant, finally brought down the gavel: "Two million sold, congratulations Mr. Suo Siwei!"

wow——

Applause immediately erupted.

All eyes turned to Lyndon, whose face had turned ashen.

Just as Sheng Aiyi judged.

Almost all of those gazes were filled with sarcasm; there was no admiration or praise whatsoever.

Lin Yi clapped along with the crowd, and when his eyes met Lin Deng's, he gave him a thumbs up.

Taunting directly fills it up.

After a sale that fetched two million, the subsequent lots, which should have been worth even more, became rather uninteresting.

Lin Yi did not make any further bids.

On the contrary, Sheng Aiyi, who was in a good mood, held up a sign and patted a violin.

The starting bid was 10,000, and the final transaction price was 15,000.

This made the host sound listless when he brought down the gavel.

Once the set routine ends, the music starts and the dancing continues.

Apart from a few couples dancing, most of the people on the rooftop were holding wine glasses and engaging in deep conversations.

Tony is still reeling from Lyndon's humiliation.

"Lin, just now I thought you would definitely bid higher and get that item."

“Tony, as a smart businessman, I refuse malicious bidding.”

Tony understood the underlying meaning in his words and laughed: "You must be saying that Lyndon is an idiot!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lyndon Soth, who had already walked behind him, turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

“Tony, Mr. Sowers probably won’t admit that this is true.”

As he spoke, Lin Yi waved the wine glass in his hand at Lin Deng.

After being hit by a series of blows, a million "fucks" echoed in my mind.

Linden suppressed his anger and walked over to the two of them, ignoring Lin Yi's provocation.

Instead, he stared intently at Tony: "Tony, your cooperation with the Chinese has completely destroyed our agreement!"

When Sinka announced that he had new alkali production technology, he suspected that Sinka had been behind the previous events.

An investigation into this matter had already been initiated.

But before the investigation could make any progress, at today's ball, they bumped into Tony and Lin Yi chatting and laughing.

Although he did not know Lin Yi.

But given this context and his warm conversation with a Chinese person, it's not difficult for Tony to deduce the truth.

Anger clouded his judgment, which led to the bottomless bidding just now.

The original plan was to make Lin Yi pay the price.

They paid an astronomical price to acquire that phoenix crown from China.

Unexpectedly, in the end, a scene unfolded where I sat up in shock from my deathbed, only to find that I was the one who had acted out the most ridiculous thing.

Shame and anger, resentment.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, which is why he lost his temper and disregarded his dignity to come and confront them.

“Mr. So Siwei, the United States is a country that upholds the law. You must have evidence to prove anything you say, otherwise I will definitely sue you for defamation.”

Tony looked at him with a smile.

He has his legal team ready.

We're just waiting for Sothink to file a lawsuit against Xinka.

In short, as long as he doesn't admit it, the law can't do anything to him!

As for the people from Sothievery getting the evidence... the influence of the Pengust family will render that agreement signed in China meaningless!

"Fake!"

Suo Siwei cursed angrily, immediately drawing the attention of those around him, who stared at him in surprise.

"Mr. So Siwei, please maintain your composure."

Looking at the furious Lyndon, Lin Yi smiled in a light tone: "Besides, I think at this time, you should be thinking about what your company's market share overseas will face next."

"Not just how much you have already lost."

"This is a big problem."

A single, gentle sentence immediately calmed Lyndon, whose face was already flushed, and a hint of panic appeared in his eyes.

As the largest alkali producer in the United States, Sotheby's also has a significant market share overseas.

And this also affects the stock price of Sothink.

This time, Suo Siwei was caught off guard by Xinka, and it has already suffered heavy losses.

If news were to spread that they would also face price attacks in overseas markets... thinking of the consequences, Linden felt a chill run down his spine.

Seeing his stunned expression, Lin Yi delivered the final blow: "And this huge trouble is all because of your stupid behavior just now, which made me very unhappy."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Tony, who was standing nearby, impatiently said, "Lin, I think we can talk about the possibility of cooperation on this matter."

"As you know, XinCard's sales system overseas is also very well-established."

No one except himself knew that the cooperation that Xinka and Lin Yi had previously agreed upon was limited to the US market!

The recent surge in Xinka's stock price has already demonstrated the power of dumping at low prices.

Therefore, if they can reach an agreement with Lin Yi on agency rights for other overseas markets, even if Yongli's supply price is higher, Xinka's stock price will definitely experience another surge.

Tony knows exactly how much that will cost!
