Chapter 2532 The Most Appropriate Price
For some reason, John Davis always felt creepy when he looked into Master Dewey's slightly joking eyes. It seemed that the person who controlled life and death at this moment was not him, but Master Dewey.
His intuition, which he had honed over many years of swimming on the edge of the knife's edge, told him to send Master Dewey away as soon as possible, otherwise something bad would happen if it was too late.
So John Davis's face changed, he repelled the people around him, and said to Master Dewey with a smile: "It's a misunderstanding. I hope it won't destroy the friendship between you and me."
Afterwards, he politely sent Master Dewey out of the manor.
After Master Dewey returned to the area under the jurisdiction of the Dwarf Guild, he handed a letter to John Davis.
After reading the letter, Davis was so shocked that he collapsed on the sofa and was speechless for a long time.
The content of the letter was very simple. It told him that there was a box, which was placed in an inconspicuous corner of the front yard. He was told not to open it, but to immediately send the box to an uninhabited open space, where it would be left by the magician. Destroy box lock remotely.
If all this cannot be completed within half an hour, the box will explode automatically and your manor will be razed to the ground.
When Davis came back to his senses, several minutes had passed, and the letter he had placed on the coffee table also spontaneously ignited inexplicably at this time.
When he tried to rescue him again, the letter had turned into ashes.
John Davis had to believe Master Dewey. He immediately ordered someone to find a box according to the location marked on the letter, and ordered the adventurer to carefully take the box out of the manor. He also issued an order: take the box far away. , the further away the better!
Twenty minutes later, there was a loud noise, smoke rising into the sky, and waves of air billowing.
The level 10 adventurer who delivered the box was brought back in a bag, and the adventurer who collected the corpse said that the scene was horrific, as if he had just experienced a disaster.
John Davis was so frightened that he had nightmares for days and nights.
This first confrontation ended in his tragic defeat.
Moreover, this confrontation not only intimidated John Davis, but also showed the world another ancient lost technology restored by Fort Witch - time bomb, and it was a high-explosive bomb type.
However, John Davis is not a soft persimmon. It can be said that he is a stubborn stone in the toilet. As long as he is not broken and can recover, he will still emit a stench to disgust others!
After a few days of silence, John Davis's shameful and angry heart became active again. He wanted revenge and wanted to take revenge on Master Dewey. He had no choice but to trample this young man under his feet and crush his face. Go into the earth, only in this way can he get rid of this bad breath.
In order to get a chance for revenge, he won the qualification to participate in the magic airship bidding venue, and contacted various forces, intending to purchase the operating rights of the magic airship in Airui City at a very low price.
In order to ensure that the plan could be executed perfectly, he did not hesitate to use dark means to kidnap the children of the strongest competitors and threatened them not to bid, otherwise something unfortunate that no one wanted to see would happen.
At the same time, the Imperial Faction, which had a close interest relationship with John Davis, also began to use the power at hand to exert pressure on other business forces.
The Ai Rui City business community was finally overwhelmed, and all bowed to the Imperial Faction and John Davis.
The situation is tense, and unfavorable clouds are gradually drifting towards Master Dewey.
However, even though he was informed by his confidants and persuaded by his friends, Master Dewey was still confident in this bidding conference.
When interviewed by a reporter, Master Dewey smiled and said: "The magic airship heralds the progress of the world. In front of this great chariot of the world, any obstruction from individuals or groups is like a mantis trying to block the car."
Master Dewey's words were very confident and calm, which once again made John Davis panic. He suddenly discovered that he knew too little about this opponent. It seemed that apart from knowing that his name was Dewey and that he was a businessman, Besides being an inventor, I don't know anything else.
He didn't know anything about his family background, his relatives, his friends and other important information. Not only did he not know, he couldn't find out even if he checked.
It was as if Master Dewey appeared out of thin air, surrounded by countless mysteries.
The day before the bidding, John Davis was restless in the manor. He had rarely been as anxious as he was today. Even when he learned of the death of his parents, he could still sleep easily. However, today, he seemed to be walking in the scorching heat. The duck on the steel plate could not stop for a moment.
Along with his messy steps, his hair was also messy, like weeds.
This surprised and disturbed many of his friends.
John Davis's hair, which was always combed straight and meticulously combed back, was as frizzy as a bird's nest at the moment. Could this be a sign of something?
Everyone was anxious, but no one dared to make a sound, because John Davis's eyes were as red as fire and could burn people to ashes.
On the day of the bidding, John Davis still had his meticulously combed hair and put on a neat uniform, but his expression was still erratic, and there was always an uneasy feeling in his heart.
This sentiment lasted until the bidding began and then weakened a bit.
John Davis knew in his heart that everything that should be arranged had already been arranged. If Dewey was allowed to succeed again, he would scatter his family wealth and follow Dewey from now on.
This thought was so strong that he clenched his fists nervously and even his breathing became rapid.
Bidding begins.
The entire venue was shocked when the price set by Master Dewey was announced - 100 million gold coins.
There was almost no change in prices between that era and now, which means that the price of this technological product that had just left the experimental category was enough to buy a small or medium-sized town!
"Crazy! It's crazy!"
This was John Davis's first impression of the bidding price for the Magic Airship franchise, and it was also his deeper understanding of Master Dewey.
He prides himself on being a business wizard with great courage and boldness, and dares to give jaw-droppingly high prices when it comes to investment and bidding.
But on this day, he clearly realized that he was simply a frog in the well.
How grand and bold he is, nothing compared to a lunatic like Dewey!
A newly developed technological product that has just left the experimental scope dares to sell it directly for 100 million! And this is not a permanent operating right, just ten years!
What kind of fun is this?
Or do you just want to have fun with the business and political bigwigs in Air City?
The moment John Davis met Master Dewey's eyes, he recognized the young man's calmness and determination.
One hundred million gold coins, ten years.
This was not a joke, nor was it a sky-high asking price just waiting to be repaid, but an estimate that had already been predetermined, which in his opinion was the most appropriate price.
