Chapter 816 548: Bet's Placed
This time is completely different from the last. Last time, Old Cao was unwilling to sell, but this time it's different, the young man in front of us is completely willing to sell the spot.
If this opportunity is missed, earning more money in this lifetime won't compensate.
Because now it's the third spot available, after this, there will only be two more chances, and perhaps later there's only wealthy elites left, who don't lack money and are unwilling to sell?
If that's the case, others will definitely lose this opportunity, and for many wealthy elites on the scene, money is just a number in their eyes, they have too many ways to make money.
Even if they spend ten thousand, they won't feel the pinch, because the chance to travel through time is absolutely priceless.
Seven thousand four!
Eight thousand five!
Nine thousand three!
The wealthy elites are fiercely bidding, reaching a feverish state, leaving everyone stunned.
For this single spot, they've completely gone wild with their bidding.
At this moment, all the audience are a little stunned.
No one expected the bidding for a single spot to reach such a terrifying level of tens of thousands.
For ordinary people, tens of thousands might be the money earned over several lifetimes, even for the wealthy, it's a huge sum.
But just look at the people in the VIP seats of the stadium, any one of them has their name on the rich list, several are CEOs or chairmen of large listed companies.
The lesser-known wealthy elites and local rich people were basically eliminated in the first round of bidding.
This kind of scene is not one that those worth thousands or tens of thousands could be part of.
After all, those worth tens of thousands might not be able to fork out one or two thousand, because that's their total assets.
And the audience in the entire stadium have also recognized the importance of this spot.
Bidding continues, but reached this level, only a few are bidding.
The bald young man who gained this qualification is speechless with excitement.
In his mind, the ability to have two or three thousand was already satisfying, he only shouted five thousand to raise the number slightly.
Like when you go shopping, there's room for bargaining.
However, he underestimated the value of this spot.
Twelve thousand!
Fifteen thousand!
Twenty thousand!
At this moment, everyone witnessed the true value of money in the eyes of these rich people; it really was just a number.
On stage, Xia Liang watched calmly as this group bid, his heart unaffected.
He knew better than many the true value of this spot to those who desired it; it's priceless.
But in the eyes of the ordinary, can a spot satisfy hunger? It's merely fulfilling a small wish, while solid money is more practical.
Half an hour passed swiftly, and the spot was sold for a high price of twenty-three thousand!
The one who ultimately got the spot was a man named Yang Han, who although young-looking, was actually the CEO of a six-digit market value listed company, backed by a family.
At this moment, he stood up, walked to the young man, directly contacted his lawyer to transfer the money online.
As a wealthy elite like him, he had accounts in major banks worldwide, VIP kind that could mobilize large funds; after ten minutes, he finally completed the transfer with the young man.
He stood up and came to the stage, smiling slightly at Xia Liang.
"God Xia, thank you for giving me this unforgettable opportunity."
Xia Liang smiled lightly.
"You're welcome, you bought this yourself, it has nothing to do with me."
Yang Han shook his head lightly.
"Without you, no amount of money could buy such an opportunity, I wish to go to the sea, the Bermuda Triangle."
Bermuda Triangle is the most mysterious place on Blue Star where planes or ships passing through mostly meet with accidents, it's a miracle if one returns from there safely.
On Blue Star, it was always called the taboo of the sea, almost everyone avoids it intentionally during sea or air travel.
The place's mystery has never been publicly revealed, and now, no one expected Yang Han to choose this place as his destination, surprising everyone, even Xia Liang showed a touch of curiosity.
Yang Han didn't hide and laughed.
"I believe many have heard of the Yang Family's ocean cargo ship accident ten years ago?"
When Yang Han stood under the spotlight, facing countless spectators, and said this, the crowd was in an uproar.
The event caused a huge sensation ten years ago, knowing the business of the Yang family in Magic Capital relies on ocean trade, they have dozens of ocean-going giant ships, they rose to prominence with Yang Family Ship.
Yang Family's current size is all due to that ship's achievements at sea.
The ship that had the accident was Yang Family Ship, at that time his wife, children, and parents were on it, intending to vacation while sending goods to Europe and America.
In the end, it went missing at Bermuda.
He couldn't understand why the captain would choose the Bermuda route then; wasn't that courting death?
Because it was too abnormal.
Everyone knew the dangers of this route, the Yang family never took this path, but the sole accident had them venture that route and they disappeared.
Those were Yang Han's entire family!
Over the years, Yang Han hired many seasoned sailors to search but found no trace, even the salvage team lost many members.
Yang Han originally planned to give up hope but with Xia Liang's appearance, offering a chance to traverse time, he saw hope once again.
The crowd listening to Yang Han were all in an uproar.
"Oh, so that's what happened, I wondered why Director Yang spent so much, fought so hard with others, turns out it's to use this opportunity to find out the reason for his family's disappearance!"
"That explains it, all the missing people on Yang Family Ship were Yang Han's relatives, he hasn't healed from the loss over these years!"
"Ah, no wonder Mr. Yang insisted on obtaining this spot, the root cause lies here!"
