Chapter 2211
"This is the first of the five final artifacts!"
The auctioneer said.
Then, she tore off the black cloth covering the lot, and a painting half a man high appeared in front of everyone.
"What the f*ck? Is this Douglas Van Dough's Moon Lake Painting?"
"Really? Wasn't the Moon Lake Painting already sold? If I remember correctly, a wealthy merchant in Port City
bought it for 400 million dollars."
"Four hundred million dollars! A painting for 400 million? Did this guy from Port City hit the jackpot?"
"What do you know? The truly rich would even buy Van Dough's authentic painting for 4 billion, not just 400 million."
"Yeah. Judging from your ignorance, you didn't know Douglas Van Dough had a Lumiere Mountain Waterfall Painting
that sold for 3.6 billion dollars, did you? Lumiere Mountain Waterfall Painting would probably have sold for more
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthan 5 billion nowadays."
As the auction lot was officially unveiled, the entire venue erupted into an unprecedented heated discussion.
Van Dough's authentic painting worth 400 million had shocked everyone by its reappearance.
Not a single person doubted the authenticity of the painting. After all, with Victory Auction House's reputation, they
did not need to fool everyone with a fake for 400 million.
"It looks like many people here know about Moon Lake Painting.
"Everyone's right. Someone did buy Moon Lake Painting, but the wealthy merchant from Port City sold it to Victory
Auction House later because of some issues.
"The starting price for Moon Lake Painting is 400 million dollars."
The auctioneer said with excitement as she took in the reactions of everyone present.
However, there was a flash of disdain in her eyes.
As Victory Auction House's auctioneer, the auctions had always been held in Janestown. Every auction by Victory
Auction House would bring together the most powerful dignitaries in Dragon Kingdom.
Although these people were dignitaries of Ocean City, they were still a far cry from the real bigwigs at the auctions
in Janestown.
"The starting price is 400 million dollars? Wasn't this painting only sold for 400 million dollars?"
"Are you stupid? Van Dough's original painting has gone up in price over the years. 400 million back then doesn't
mean it's worth 400 million now."
"What kind of idiot can't understand such a simple truth?"
Hearing the starting price of 400 million dollars, a great deal of discussion erupted again.
Sean simply glanced at Moon Lake Painting and lost interest.
Spending 400 million dollars on a painting did not make much sense to him, even if it was an authentic Van Dough
painting.
"My father's 50th birthday is coming. He has always liked antiques and paintings. He'll absolutely love Moon Lake
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPainting if I get it for him as a birthday gift!
"I'll bid 450 million dollars for Moon Lake Painting. I hope everyone here can do me a favor and not fight for the
painting with me!"
While others were still talking, Curtis had already made a bid.
He raised the price of Moon Lake Painting by 50 million dollars. In the whole of Ocean City, except for the heir of the
Lake family, few people could be so lavish.
"I was wondering who's so generous. It turns out it's you, Mr. Lake."
"Haha. Mr. Lake, you must be joking. We'll naturally do Old Master Lake a favor. Even if it's not his 50th birthday, we
won't compete with you for Moon Lake Painting!"
"We've always heard that Old Master Lake loves antiques
and paintings, and we naturally can't take away what other people love! And you offered an extra 50 million dollars.
Your generosity is something I can never achieve!"
Everyone started flattering Curtis, which showed the Lake family's status in Ocean City.
