Villain: With God-tier Choices, I Suppressed The Protagonist

68 Targeted

The security officer at the door looked at the person-in-charge and then at Luo Chen with a bewildered face.

However, Luo Chen did not show any anger. He only nodded at the person-in-charge and walked into the main venue with his secretary.

The moment he stepped through the door, he turned around and glanced at the security officer.

“Looks like the security here isn’t that good. You should hire another security officer.”

With that, Luo Chen walked straight into the venue without looking back.

The person-in-charge glared at the security officer.

It was obvious that today would be his last day working here.

…

In the venue, with Luo Chen’s arrival, many people looked at him.

Then, they began to wink.

Backstage, Su Han naturally noticed Luo Chen’s arrival and immediately revealed a cold smile.

“Hehe, I’ll like to see how smug you can be after today. Just wait for death!”

Su Han muttered to himself as he raised his hand to indicate to the emcee that he could begin.

“Welcome to today’s auction. I hope everyone will return home satisfied.”

After the emcee finished speaking enthusiastically, he announced the official start of the auction.

In fact, most of the people participating in this auction were investors.

Naturally, it was because Su Han had already made arrangements.

Everything else was not important. He just wanted to ensure that Luo Chen would end up buying those specially packaged assets.

In that case, once the project started, the entire Luo Corporation would collapse.

…

The first batch of assets soon began to be announced.

These were just the appetizers. They added up to the value of only 500,000 yuan.

Luo Chen did not even have the intention to raise the sign.

“Young Master, don’t you like it?”

The secretary asked softly.

“It’s nothing much. Even if I get it, it’ll only make a small profit. It’s pointless.”

Luo Chen slowly shook his head, uninterested.

However, this kind of asset was very popular with small business owners. Not long after the opening, it was bought by someone for 800,000 yuan.

Next was the second one.

…

As the auction continued, the atmosphere in the event location became more and more heated.

“This is the development project Riverside Homeland. Bosses, you should already know the value of it.”

“The starting price is five million!”

The emcee kept stirring up the atmosphere at the event location.

Only then did Luo Chen straighten his back slightly.

“Six million.”

He held up the sign.

This was because the development project Riverside Homeland was indeed well-known in the industry. Even Luo Chen did not expect that such a profitable project would be auctioned.

If he could get it, it would not be a problem for him to earn tens of millions.

“Seven million!”

Soon, someone raised the price.

Luo Chen was not in a hurry. He looked coldly at the rising price.

Not long after, the price had already reached 15 million. It did not even show any signs of stopping.

In between, Luo Chen had also increased the price twice, but as expected, there was no chance of winning.

…

“Looks like… they’ve really put in a lot of effort to trap me.”

Gradually, Luo Chen realized what was going on. He muttered to himself, and his expression became more and more relaxed.

The Riverside Homeland project was indeed profitable, but it depended on the transaction price.

This abnormal upward trend was obviously manipulated by someone.

Luo Chen did not want to fall for the trap. As for who would win, it had nothing to do with him.

At first, he thought that this was just a simple auction. Now, it seemed that it was a trap that had been planned long ago and was waiting for him to fall into it.

Su Han, who was backstage, saw all of this and was extremely anxious.

He didn’t know what went wrong. It was clearly just 20 million. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that as long as he could get it for less than 40 million, he would be able to make a lot of money.

“Twenty-three million!”

At this moment, Luo Chen finally raised the sign again. His eyes were exceptionally persistent, as if he would not stop until he achieved his goal.

Su Han finally felt relieved.

Although this auction was specially prepared for Luo Chen, selling only those problematic assets would definitely expose his plot.

Therefore, Su Han had spent a lot of money to buy a batch of really good assets in advance to sell them as part of the auction.

Today, the best solution for Su Han was for Luo Chen to buy all the bad assets. It would be best if the other high-quality assets were not sold.

If that didn’t work, it would still be ok to let Luo Chen buy the good assets at a high price.

This way, a large amount of liquid capital of the Luo Investment Corporation would be occupied. It won’t be too late for him to make further plans then.

The only bad outcome would be if his people whom he had planted to bid for the good assets end up successfully buying them back at a higher price.

After all, this auction was hosted by a famous auction house in the industry. Hence, transactions could not be fake and had to really take place.

If those good assets were to return to Su Han’s hands at a high price, he would suffer a huge loss!

However, it seemed that Luo Chen could no longer resist the temptation.

He should be able to try mixing the bad assets in later.

“23 million! Does any boss still want to increase the price? This asset is a rare good asset. Even if you don’t want to develop it yourself and sell it directly, you can still make a lot of money!”

The emcee described in a provocative tone.

“Twenty-five million!”

A fat man with a fierce face raised his sign.

The price, which had just stabilized, continued to rise.

Backstage, Su Han’s face twitched.

Because this person was arranged by him in advance!

If they successfully bought it back for 25 million, they would lose a lot of money!

Just thinking about it made his heart ache!

“30 million.”

Luo Chen raised the sign expressionlessly, as if he was determined to get the asset.

In an instant, Su Han’s eyes lit up!

This was the effect he wanted!

As long as Luo Chen insisted on obtaining this asset, there would be a lot more room for maneuver!

The brawny man holding the sign quietly turned around and glanced at Su Han behind the curtain.

After getting permission, he continued to bid.

“Thirty-five million!”

“Forty million.”

…

Just like that, the two of them fought.

Although he only added 100,000 or 200,000 yuan later, the determination to win was already clear.

Luo Chen’s emotions did not fluctuate at all. He even glanced at the burly man casually and waved the sign in his hand as if he was getting impatient.

“Haha, he’s finally been tricked! Continue to add!”

Su Han was so excited that he immediately gestured for the burly man to continue.

“45 million!”

The burly man roared.
