Super Emperor System

Chapter 24 - The Auction (Part Six)

"Ah, I'm sorry, Amira. I'm just too excited just now." James immediately realized his mistake and apologized.

"Well, it's fine." Amira said as she lightly blushed. She then took a handkerchief from her handbag and wiped her lips dry. The atmosphere immediately turned into awkward. Luckily, the auction process continued.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's the time for our second finale to begin. On the left side of me, lay the second biggest single diamond in the world! A pink diamond named the Goddes Heart, and its weight is 1287.35 carats! With a perfect heart shape to complement, it really deserves its name!

The starting price is $5 Billion, and each increase must not less than $10 Million." Robert shouted. Immediately as his voice fell, a bid issued.

"$6 Billion." A woman's voice from No. 13 VIP venues said.

"$7 Billion." Another woman's voice that connected with the phone said.

Everyone s.u.c.k.e.d a cold breath as the momentum of the bid was too fierce! In just 2 minutes, the bid already broke through the $10 Billion marks. According to this momentum, surpassing the Supreme Ocean was not a matter at all!

All the audience that watched live broadcast didn't know what to say already. Each bidder treated money just like it was dirt! Every time the bid increased, it must at least $100 Million units.

"Amira, do you want to go dinner with me after all of this is over? Don't misunderstand, it's for my sincere apology for my mistake just now." James asked. He already relaxed as the auction was a total success.

"Your servant is honored and received the invitation of Your Majesty." Amira said as she pretended to be a servant. The atmosphere between them immediately turned 180 degrees from just now.

After 10 minutes of bidding, the final bid was issued by a woman connected with a phone.

"$19.4 Billion." The woman said. Although it was not her money, all the people here could hear a distressed tone from her.

Almost every person that attended or watched this from live broadcast already numbed. They think the mysterious bidder was crazy as they didn't feel its worth it for almost $20 Billion just to buy a diamond, a f.u.c.k.i.n.g diamond! Moreover, it also hit the majority of people's confidence as someone bought a diamond for nearly $20 Billion!

James already laughing like crazy as he could already envision the plan inside his mind, would soon be realized. After 10 seconds, no other bid followed the woman bid.

"1, 2, 3, SOLD!!!!!" Robert knocked his hammer madly, again. All the people stood up and clapped their hand for the mysterious bidder and the biggest winner of all, James!

James quickly went down from the venues and walked into the podium. Robert quickly gave James space as he knew what he wanted to do.

"Thank you for everyone that makes this auction a success! I'm here to inform you about something. I sincerely invited all the people here to my coronation ceremony two weeks later. The ceremony will be held in my Kingdom, and I expect to see you all later.

I also want to inform you about something. All of the money that I earn from this auction will all spend on the construction of my Kingdom! I sincerely welcome all people that want to cooperate." James said. Everyone then started another round of applause.

With the Goddess Heart successfully sold, it means the auction was over! Although James wanted to celebrate it and invited everyone, almost all of them were busy after they went off their work for nearly ten days. Moreover, he still had a dinner appointment with Amira and various complicated stuff from the auction.

---------

All the money from the auction totaled for $45.78 Billion! Moreover, 80% of it came from the two diamond. James numbed when he thought all the four boxes that full with various gemstone in his private vault. There was even a gemstone with the size of a f.u.c.k.i.n.g basketball!

James knew the reason why the two diamond sold for so high was because of its rarity and novelty! If he continued to sell more gemstone that size or rarity, it would only drop the price. It would also bring him unwanted hatred from the buyer of his two diamond. So he directly dismissed his thought for later quick money.

With James's announcement at the auction end, many construction companies all around the world ready to sharpen their heads. They knew how significant was the investment of $45.78 Billion.

Moreover, all of them also already learned the situation of the Kingdom of Lannister and James's vision. $45.78 Billion was only a fraction for future development as to develop a country, it needed a massive amount of money.

Many people said that the founding of a country was a golden time for making money. Although the Kingdom of Lannister was already established for over 100 years, it was very backward! It was almost the same situation as the founding of the country.

Even if the Kingdom was small, it was a legit country! Moreover, the Royal Family of it was very rich, which could be reflected in the auction lately. In many people's calculations, even with $100 Billion, it was barely enough for the construction of the entire country.

With the thought of massive projects waited for them, all the CEOs of major construction companies directly fly to London overnight.
