Chapter 1360 - 1359: Stealing the Monarch
Thunderbolt Beads is an extremely intelligent man, capable of asserting his place among the strongest as a mere commoner. He not only possesses strength but also intellect and the method in which he conducts himself and his affairs.
He did not ask Yusuf Zuck how he obtained these Divine Peaches. Instead, he quickly thought about how to acquire these Divine Peaches and then sell them at a high price.
As is commonly known, scarcity enhances value. There’s a world of difference between there being only one Divine Peach worldwide and there being a hundred thousand. In fact, if there were ten thousand Divine Peaches worldwide, they would be so common that prices would plummet, let alone one hundred thousand.
Thus, after pondering for quite some time, he finally said indifferently, "One hundred thousand is too many. One reason is that I can’t afford them. Another is that if there are too many Divine Peaches, they lose their value. So, you just bring out one hundred of them!"
"Sure!" Yusuf Zuck immediately nodded, understanding the principle that rarity confers value.
"I haven’t finished speaking, listen to me," Thunderbolt Beads said with a smile: "I won’t be buying these one hundred peaches either. Instead, you leave them with me, and I’ll auction them for you three days from now!"
"Oh?" Yusuf Zuck raised his eyebrows.
"You know my Heavenly Heart Residence also handles auction matters. By staging ours just before the Appraisal Pavilion’s, we can surely fetch a large sum. You can keep all the Spirit Stones obtained from the auction. I just ask for a few extra Divine Peaches from you!"
"As many as you want, I’ll give them all!" Yusuf Zuck laughed heartily.
"Then it is agreed," Thunderbolt Beads said with narrowed eyes: "As soon as I release this news, it will create an immediate worldwide sensation. Since only the Goodman Family has Divine Peaches, there will surely be a supply shortage during the auction. Those Divine Peaches will fetch a much higher price, potentially far exceeding eighty billion apiece!"
"By the way, why do you need so much money?" Thunderbolt Beads suddenly asked.
