below.
Shen Jianguo and his group immediately perked up.
After waiting for so long, the main course was finally served, and Shen Xukun gave Qin Yao and the other person a smug look.
Judging from that expression, it seemed like victory was already assured.
As the host finished speaking, the scene erupted in excitement.
"Hey? Isn't this Qin Yao's company? I heard it had a pretty good future, how come it's being sold so easily?"
"You don't know this? Apparently, the company mortgaged the property, and now they can't pay it back, so they have to auction it off to repay the debt!"
"Not only that, I've heard that there have been a lot of internal conflicts within the Shen family recently, and they've been doing a lot of dirty work behind the scenes."
......
A jumble of incoherent words kept coming in.
Shen Jianguo didn't care about any of this. At a time when the Shen family was undergoing a complete transformation, these rumors were just a publicity stunt.
As for Qin Yao and Shen Lang, they are not worth mentioning at all. In the past, there might have been some concerns.
"I can't help but laugh when I think about how Qin Yao ended up like this."
"Wasn't he so arrogant before? He deserved it!"
Liu Yan looked on with schadenfreude, wishing she could see the other person crying in pain right then and there.
Shen Xukun also smiled disdainfully and said sarcastically, "If you ask me, she really has backbone. Even in this situation, she hasn't said a word to her family."
"If we hadn't discovered it by chance later, we probably wouldn't have known we were going bankrupt."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yan put her hands on her hips, looking utterly disdainful.
She immediately launched into a tirade of criticism, saying, "She might as well open her mouth, but does she even have the nerve to do it?"
"He's arrogant by nature. If he were to open his mouth, wouldn't he be laughed to death? Even if he goes bankrupt, he probably wouldn't want to lose face, hahaha."
These words were met with approval from several people.
She gets angry just thinking about it. She's no worse than Qin Yao; frankly, it's just that this woman is lucky.
When she first came to the Shen family, she had worked for the Shen family's group and made money for the group. She thought she would have a chance too, but who knew that the old man would favor her.
If it weren't for the old man's support, who knows who would be more powerful now!
"Starting bid is one billion, with each bid increment no less than five million!"
As soon as the host finished speaking, the auction began.
"1.1 billion!"
Almost simultaneously, Shen Xukun, with his legs crossed, leisurely announced the price.
Many people were shocked by his words and looked over in disbelief.
"When did the Shen family become so extravagant? Five million at a time is considered a big deal, but they just threw out a hundred million?"
"It's only because they recently latched onto the Su family that they're so generous. It's infuriating! I was actually thinking of giving it a try!"
"It's a pity, this price is beyond my budget. Although the company has a good future and I could make a profit if I bid, I'd better not."
......
Many people are intimidated by Shen Xukun's price tag.
The other person's determined expression, in particular, made some people lose the will to compete.
However, this was to be expected, and some bosses didn't seem to care about it.
Even if the auction costs more money now, as long as the company wins the bid, it will only take a little longer to recoup the investment, and the result will be the same.
"1.1 billion and 5 billion!"
"1.12 billion!"
Bidding still occasionally broke out in the venue.
"1.15 billion!"
Just then, Shen Xukun spoke up again, raising the already steadily rising price to a new level.
This went on and on, and even some bosses showed bitterness on their faces, unable to stop complaining in their hearts.
Why did you bid so high at this auction?
While others gradually pull back and forth, you're always the best, always managing to snatch up their last offer.
After this bidding process, fewer people were bidding at the scene.
But in such a large venue, who can guarantee that there aren't a few people eyeing the venue with predatory intent?
The reason they hadn't made a bid was because they were observing the situation, and Shen Xukun naturally knew this, so he simply spoke up and dispelled their plans.
"Ladies and gentlemen, an auction is supposed to be a fair competition, and those with the ability should get what they want. That's perfectly reasonable."
"But I must say this: this company is an asset of the Shen family, and the person who wants this company is not me, Shen Xukun, but someone else."
"If everyone would do me a favor today and allow the Shen family's belongings to return to the Shen family, my Shen family would be eternally grateful."
After Shen Xukun finished speaking, he stood up from his seat and clasped his hands in a fist salute to the crowd.
Upon hearing these words, everyone nodded in agreement, showing no surprise.
I had heard about the Shen family's previous banquet for the young master of the Su family in Beijing. Shen Xukun's words were full of implications, and it goes without saying who he was referring to.
Continuing to bid at this point would not only be going against the Shen family, but also against Su Chaofeng.
The consequences of this are extremely serious. After all, there are only a few hotheads in this world who would knowingly walk into a dangerous place.
Therefore, both big and small business owners present abandoned their bidding at this point.
Su Chaofeng doesn't know who is good to him, but he knows perfectly well who is against him.
"Damn it! These people are disgusting!"
Qin Yao's face was grim. She had thought the price would continue to rise, which was why they were auctioning off the company.
But unexpectedly, Shen Xukun was so despicable that he directly used Su Chaofeng's name to do his bidding, killing off the price that originally had a lot of room for further increase!
"This price didn't even reach our initial estimate!"
Shen Lang was also furious. They had done a corresponding assessment before, and the company could be sold for at least 1.5 billion, or even more. But now it was far from that!
"I told you to ask Roy for help a long time ago, but you wouldn't listen. Now what are we going to do with this little bit of money we've earned!"
"Hey, you're just too proud to admit it and suffer for it. There wouldn't have done any harm in trying!"
Thinking about what happened at the company that night, Shen Lang felt even more suffocated and kept muttering to himself.
It's difficult to even pay off debts with this money, let alone have any left over.
You know, even though they had debts before, they still had a company. Now, the debts are still there, and the company is gone too!
"Can you shut up?!"
Qin Yao shouted angrily, her head feeling like it was about to explode.
Her face was no longer gentle; her brows were furrowed with anger, like a volcano about to erupt at any moment.
Her mind kept replaying what Shen Xukun had just said, and she felt that something was off.
Although his company had a promising future, it was still just a small company. So why would Su Chaofeng, the young master of the Su family in Beijing, suddenly become interested in his company?
