Victory in Life
Chapter 677
Marcus walks haughtily into the room with a tanned man next to him named Ned.
The two entered the room and their eyes were immediately fixed on Jasper.
Seeing how calm Jasper was as he sat down, Marcus sneered and walked towards him, Marcus raised his hand to knock on the table in front of Jasper as he spoke, "I heard you paid a fortune just to have this bidding meeting with me, Mr Laine? is there any use for this?"
"If I want you to have it, it'll be yours easily, but if I don't want you to have it, you can spend as much money as you want and all you'll get is trash."
Jasper looked at Marcus and spoke, "Oh? now I want to know how exactly you think 1,500 acres of land is garbage, Mr. Coine."
Ned sneered beside her. "Are you really stupid or are you just pretending to be stupid, an outsider?"
"Without Mr. Coine giving you the green light, it doesn't matter whether you've bought it or not, there will be people bothering you every day and you have no choice but to leave it empty in the end."
"Oh yes, let me introduce myself, I'm Ned, the owner of Pawnshop Ned, if you think that you can't stand it anymore and want to pawn the land, I promise I'll give you a good price, Ha ha."
Ned was tall and large, and his loud laughter echoed throughout the room deafeningly.
Jasper slightly furrowed his brows. "Can you laugh any slower? you're a little noisy."
Ned glared at Jasper fiercely. "Did you just say I was noisy? you wanna die?"
At that moment, Julian, who had been standing behind Jasper all this time, stepped forward from his position, it was obvious that he would with all his might hold this 190 cm tall Ned, back, if he shows any sign of starting a fight.
Seeing how the scene was starting to get out of control, Chad quickly stood up and smiled apologetically. "Mr Adkins, Mr. Coine, please calm down, however this is the town hall meeting room, the Auction is about to begin, it will look bad to all of us if someone gets hurt right now."
Marcus smiled indifferently and replied, "Well, so you're not entirely Wright's fool, I'll let go because you asked for it."
Then, Marcus raised his hand to point at Jasper and spoke slowly, "You want this auction, so you don't have to blame anyone when you regret it later, You're not the first to fight me for something in Reed City, so let's see who's more capable, hmm?"
Then, Marcus patted Ned and turned to the chair that was appointed representative of PT Dana the Reed City Government.
Ned looked at Jasper threateningly and grinned grimly, he used his hand and gestured slicing his throat before he followed Marcus.
After all this trouble, it was finally 8am.
Chad was the host of the auction, but he couldn't get on stage because Mr. Powers hadn't returned from reporting to the boss.
The news from Mr. Powers will convey the attitude the city government took and therefore, how the auction was going to end, that's why Chad didn't dare to start the auction when he still didn't know the intentions of the city government.
Fortunately, Mr. Powers did not make him wait too long as he hurried back around eight past five minutes.
He first looked towards Chad. "It's time, Mr. Wright, please start the auction."
Chad knows that Mr. Powers is letting him handle the auction so he doesn't hear the conversation between Mr. Powers and Jasper.
