Ferdie Joules was in great pain.
The 200 billion dollars, to him, was only a little more than one-fifth of his family property.
However, he has already reached the cash limit he can pay.
Moreover, the Joules family would not have reserved so much cash at all.
This time, just to ensure that the Rejuvenating pill auction is safe, he deliberately reserved US$200 billion in the Swiss bank.
Moreover, Ferdie Joules also felt that the reserve of 200 billion US dollars was enough to win the Rejuvenating pill himself.
The settlement of US dollars around the world does not need to be audited.
As long as an order is given, the Swiss bank can pay the money in an instant.
However, Jefferson Hawkins’s words of lightness were equal to all the cash he prepared.
This also means that Ferdie Joules is already at his limit and can no longer continue the game.
However, the unwilling Ferdie Joules thought, “The payment time for the auction is half an hour.
If I think of a way in this half hour, I should be able to raise some funds from other places!”
Thinking of this, Ferdie Joules raised his hand again and blurted out, “I will pay 210 billion!”
Ferdie Joules knew very well that this was his last bid tonight.
If Jefferson Hawkins continues to increase the price, then he can only admit defeat, and he will start preparing for the aftermath when he goes back.
Although his granddaughter Michaela has established a certain relationship with the owner of the Rejuvenating pill, now that the Rejuvenating pill has reached this price, Ferdie Joules no longer has any hope for Michaela, because he knows that his granddaughter can never get it for himself.
Unexpectedly, Jefferson Hawkins said immediately without any hesitation, “220 billion!”
At this moment, Ferdie Joules’ expression instantly froze, and his body movements also stagnated at this moment.
He finally realized why this auction was so crazy.
Because it is really about human life.
You win, and life can be extended.
If you lose, even if you are worth hundreds of billions or trillions, if you get out of this door, you have to wait for death.
If the physical condition is not so bad and can continue for another year, then there may be a chance to come back and compete for another Rejuvenating pill.
Otherwise, if you are like Ferdie Joules, you can basically go back and prepare for the funeral.
Jasmine looked at Ferdie Joules at this time and asked, “No. 035, do you want to continue to bid?”
Ferdie Joules suddenly came back to his senses, and immediately looked at Jasmine with a dead face, and shook his head dejectedly.
He knew that he had lost.
Even if he continued to bid, and he couldn’t pay by then, he would only be able to draw water from a bamboo basket.
Moreover, when the time comes, he will be ridiculed by the audience.
And he, at this moment, also knows that his life is not long, and continuing to struggle will only be in vain, but will lose the last trace of dignity.
Frustrated, he waved his hand, but did not continue to ask for a price.
Immediately, he buried his head and forced himself to accept the reality of the imminent end.
Flint Yeager on the side was also full of emotion.
He wanted to comfort Ferdie Joules, but he didn’t know how to comfort him for a while.
So, he could only pat Ferdie Joules on the back lightly, and said in a low voice, “Lord Joules, don’t get emotional about your current physical condition!”
Ferdie Joules nodded slightly, but his heart was still in pain.
Jefferson Hawkins looked at Ferdie Joules’ back, sighed, and whispered, “Ferdie Joules, I’m sorry…”
In the box on the second floor, Michaela was already in tears, and the makeup that had been slightly powdered on her face had been turned into tears by her.
At this time, she deeply knew how desperate her grandfather was.
That kind of despair, I am afraid, is more desperate than falling into an ice cave in the twelfth lunar month of winter when water is dripping into ice.
And she herself, while feeling sorry for her grandfather, can’t help but be full of sadness.
Because, she also knows that the Rejuvenating pill is so expensive now that even the entire Joules family’s cash reserves are not enough to buy it.
In this case, what kind of favor is she going to give to Charlie?
So, how will she ask Charlie, ask him to give her grandpa a Rejuvenating pill, or even half of it?
Charlie made 300 billion US dollars in an auction, and if he took out 100 million US dollars, he could repay all his favors dozens of times.
And Charlie, who was in the monitoring room at this time, was also a little horrified.
220 billion US dollars, this is shocking wealth, but this Jefferson Hawkins, the declared capital is only 100 billion US dollars, what is his real identity?
At this time, Jasmine at the scene started the last three inquiries as usual.
After no one raised the price for the last three times, she dropped the hammer excitedly and announced loudly, “Congratulations to No. 099, who successfully won the whole Rejuvenating pill in this auction at a price of 220 billion US dollars!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jefferson Hawkins stood up slowly, looked at Jasmine Moore, and said loudly, “Miss Moore, the owner of Rejuvenating pill must be watching everything that is happening here at this moment somewhere.
I want to take this opportunity to discuss business with him!”
Facing Jefferson Hawkins’s behavior of not playing cards according to the routine, Jasmine didn’t know how to answer.
After all, this is the bidder of the 220 billion US dollars, and she certainly can’t just drive him out just because he doesn’t obey the rules?
Just when Jasmine was hesitating, Jefferson Hawkins looked at one of the surveillance cameras and said loudly, “As long as you let me take this Rejuvenating pill away, I can pay you $300 billion!”
