Chapter 908 A Zero-sum Game


    As people down the stage wasplimenting and sighing for the exquisiteness of the items exhibited,


    Rowen suddenly stood up and yelled out in a powerful voice, "No matter how much I shall pay, I''m


    going to get all these treasures, including you,dy!"


    The hall resounded with the voice of Rowen, which had drawn the attention of those rich men around.


    Finding that it was Rowen who made such rampant announcement, those fellows dared not to do


    anything but to lower down their heads, gritting their teeth silently. They all felt it the same way that it


    was excessive for Rowen to take away all those curios regardless of others'' feeling, while no one


    would dare to speak out the voice inside in case of getting himself trouble.


    Rowen looked around and then grinned, yelling to thedy loudly, "It seems that none of the guests


    around are able to afford all these items today, except me!"


    Connor, sitting aside and looking at Rowen, chose to remain silent since he neither got any interest in


    those curios nor what was inside the head of Rowen.


    For the chairman of the auction standing aside, he was stunned into cold sweat with his eyes wide


    open out of panic. He had long heard the obscene and filthy essence of Rowen, and knew nothing


    about what would happen to his daughter if he took her away.


    However, it was out of what the chairman had expected that his daughter, smiling seductively, stepped


    towards Rowen, stroked his chest softly with one hand and said, "That would be great, Rowen.


    Besides, I always appreciate those who are tough and, of course, rich."


    "You really know how to be loved, don''t you?" Rowenughed and seemed satisfied with the ttering


    of the chairman''s daughter.


    The unexpected interactions between the beauty and the wrinkled old man Rowen were such an


    eyesore to the guests around.


    Chief Carr frowned, turned to his assistant and asked, "Tell me something about the man called


    Rowen."


    "Sorry, but I''m not sure about that too. All I know is that he has his hands in a dozens ofpany, and


    the yearly revenue of each of them is nearly immeasurable." Answered his assistant.


    Chief Carr sighed and thought to himself that it was too early for him to take any further actions against


    Rowen.


    After Rowen had sessfully bought all those curios in auction, the daughter of the chairman


    gracefully stepped towards the front of Rowen, presenting all those curios to him by herself and leaving

    a kiss on Rowen''s cheek.


    Rowen then took the advantage, pulled her to his side and began to fondle her, regardless of the re


    of the chairman.


    "I have a question for you, sweetie." Rowen suddenly asked, with one of his hands softly stroking the


    head of thedy, "Am I the most powerful and influential man in this ce?"


    Thedy hesitated, nced at the men around including Chief Carr and Connor. Rowen then stared at


    her sharply and asked again, "Tell me, am I the most powerful and influential man in this ce?"


    Thedy seemed frightened, nodding panically and leaning on the chest of Rowen. Rowen then


    give any response to Rowen even though he had noticed his provocation, which made Rowen


    extremely unpleasant.


    In the following rounds of the auction, Rowen decided to stop wasting any money and kept silent in the


    rest of the process, leaving other guests yelling out prices topete with each other for the items


    auctioned.


    Soon, the third round of the auctions came, and among the items Maximilian found a glossy


    ganoderma with color of icy blue, which was definitely Hardy Ganoderma that Damen had mentioned.


    "In this round of auction, we have a kind of valuable and rare traditional Chinese herb here which is


    called Hardy Ganoderma. As we can see, it is covered by the color of transparent icy blue, and


    ording to reference, it is valuable for its functions of lowering blood pressure, strengthening one''s


    overall physical abilities, especially sexual capacity." Anotherdy, stepped up to the stage and


    introduced to the guests.


    Thest function that the auctiondy mentioned had attracted the attention of guests around. For


    Maximilian, it was the only chance to save Victoria''s grandpa, and he needed to get Hardy Ganoderma


    no matter what.
