Chapter 776
"Okay, if you say no, then I won't buy it."
Chuck was speechless. Why was Nancy so mad?
He didn't offend her, did he?
Yolanda was also speechless. Fortunately, Chuck did not mind.
The second stone was bought by someone for three million dollars.
Many people didn't participate in the auction.
It seemed that many people didn't think highly of that investment.
"See? Gambling on stones isn't as simple as you think. You can't buy it just because you think it's pleasing to the eye. There are many things to take into consideration! If you just make a bid, although it only costs three million, you'll still lose three million!" Nancy said coldly.
Buying a piece of trash was something only a fool would do.
"Right."
Chuck accepted the criticism humbly. He only just understood a little about it, so of course, he had to listen to the expert.
Only by accepting other people's criticism could he learn something.
Nancy was surprised that a person like Chuck would not refute her.
The next piece was a rough stone.
Everyone was clamoring. Seeing how hesitant Nancy looked, Chuck knew that she had her eye on that piece.
"Do you want to buy this?"
When Chuck came into contact with those men earlier, he had eavesdropped on which stone to buy. The piece in front of him must have jade in it.
"Don't affect my judgment!" Nancy said.
Chuck was speechless.
Fine. He just kept quiet.
Nancy didn't bid for the stone because she was in a dilemma. She let a rich guy bid for it at 30 million dollars.
The guy seemed to be very delighted.
It seemed like the stone really had jade in it.
Nancy let out a sigh of regret. She regretted that she didn't bid for it.
"In fact, we could've just bid for that just now!" Chuck couldn't help but say.
Was Nancy waiting for the last piece only to be willing to participate in the bidding?
Was that why she kept hesitating?
Was she afraid of losing money?
"Can you just shut up?" Nancy said coldly.
"In fact, I'm not short on cash. If you don't have enough money, I can pay more. It's all right. The main thing is that there is hope. Don't let any chances slip away."
If Chuck wanted to join the industry, Nancy would be the one to guide him into it.
"Not short on cash?" Nancy laughed.
"Yes, I'm not short of money." Chuck shrugged. His casino was earning up to tens of millions a day. How could he be short on cash?
He certainly was not!
Nancy found it ridiculous. With Chuck's appearance, how could he not be short on cash?
"Do you know how many people have a net worth of more than a few billion?"
"How would I know? I don't know any of them." Chuck certainly did not know.
He wasn't familiar with any of them, but Yolanda should be more familiar as she was in the country all this while.
Nancy felt he was even more ridiculous. He didn't even recognize the people there and dared to say that he was not short on cash.
Nancy took Chuck's words as a joke.
"When you talk, you shouldn't brag!"
"I'm not bragging." Chuck was speechless.
She thought that he was short on cash?
Nancy snorted coldly!
Chuck shrugged. "Fine. There's not much left to be auctioned. I'm going to buy all of them."
"There are another five more items to be auctioned. Each one of them could be sold for billions. Do you think you have the money?" Nancy mocked him.
It turned out that she had met a pretentious man that day!
In order to buy everything, it might cost him billions. Was Chuck that wealthy?
All the people there were wealthy bosses, and even they didn't dare to say such ridiculous things. Chuck actually said that he would buy everything. How foolish was he to say such a thing?
"Yes. I told you, I'm not short on money," Chuck said.
"Don't make trouble! Shut up or I'll terminate our partnership!" Nancy was straightforward.
Chuck sighed and said, "Okay, fine by me!"
While they were still arguing with each other, the auction had started with another piece.
Nancy finally wanted to bid.
"10 million!"
"20 million!"
A lot of big bosses were optimistic about the piece, thus many people seemed to want to buy it.
Nancy was no exception.
There was definitely jade in that stone.
It would definitely bring a profit!
She decided that she should continue to bid!
"Chuck, please don't mind her. Nancy is like that, but she is actually not a bad person," Yolanda said something good about Nancy.
When Nancy spoke about Chuck earlier, she was so mad, but there was nothing she could do.
"It's fine." Chuck shrugged.
Why should he mind?
"Fifty million!" Nancy bid for it.
With the additional two hundred million from Chuck, she only had less than four hundred million dollars. If she bought this piece, she could not bid for the last one.
But she couldn't buy that for seventy million dollars!
She was very anxious.
"Is this stone very rare?" Chuck felt nothing at first glance, but several people were bidding for it, which indicated that it was something rare.
"Of course. If I bid for this at 70 million, I will definitely make a profit! But if I bid for more than 70 million, then I won't profit much from it," Nancy explained.
"I see." Chuck understood. He also looked at the stone carefully and studied it silently. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
It seemed that gemstone investments really were not something that could be learned overnight. It needed to be learned through experience!
Nancy was right. Everyone else was bidding 70 million, and no one else had bid any higher. Even if the bid was higher, it was just another one to two million more.
Nancy's evaluation was good. She had great potential as a boss. She had a good eye and her evaluation was very close.
"We can't bid on this anymore." Nancy decided to give up and directed her attention to the last piece.
"Guest number ten is bidding for seventy-three million. Are there any other guests who are willing to bid higher?" The auctioneer shouted loudly.
After looking at it for a few seconds, Chuck called his mother through a video call to let her have a look at the stone. Chuck nodded and raised his sign. "Eighty million!"
Everyone was startled as soon as he said that!
Nancy was furious. "Chuck, what are you doing? If we buy it for eighty million, we won't profit from it anymore!"
She was extremely furious. If they spent 80 million on that stone, then how much money would they have left for the last piece?
"We can profit from this." Chuck shrugged.
The previous bidder, sneered, "Fool, you won't make a profit when the price exceeds 70 million dollars. At most, you can only profit a few million. Why would you take such a big risk?"
"He's really a fool. Is he a brainless guy? Did he just enter this field?"
"It must be so. Even though we are so experienced in this field, we have stopped bidding. He is still bidding higher? It's obvious that he is brainless! He's just losing money!" The people in the auction laughed at Chuck. Nancy said coldly, "Do you see that? Do you hear that? People are calling you a fool!"
