The Almighty Dragon General -
Chapter 315
Chapter 315
Bjorn staggered. He pointed at James and bellowed with rage, “Who the hell are you, kid? Why are you going against me?”
James smirked. “I'm just a nobody. I did say that the highest bidder can have the King of Ginseng. If you want it, just raise the bid.”
Hearing the exorbitant price, Thea quivered in fear. She pulled at James and gestured for him to stop
However, James was undaunted.
“Fine, whatever.”
Bjorn was so enraged that he smiled. He extended his shriveled arm and pointed at James,” Take it if you so desperately want it. I certainly hope this herb will extend your life span.”
He uttered in a threatening tone.
Everyone could see he was enraged,
James was doomed.
Bjorn stopped raising the bid. Christine had been watching from behind the auction block and remained silent.
However, she had secretly informed Jay, who was in Cansington.
After hearing about what was happening, Jay immediately tapped into the surveillance cameras at the venue. Upon witnessing the scene, he immediately ordered, “Christine, since Thea wants the thousand year-old ginseng, just give it to her for free.”
Hearing this, Christine froze.
She secretly contacted him
No way... The bidding price is five hundred million, grandpa. How can we just give it for free?” “Listen to me."
“Alright.”
Christine dared not disobey his orders.
Seeing that no one else made any further bids, she looked at James and said with a smile,” Since no one else's making a bid, this thousand-year-old King of Ginseng will belong to Mr. Caden. However, I'd like to announce that we at Herbal Biotech have decided to present it to him for free.”
Hearing this, the crowd was stunned. For Free?
The crowd fixed its gaze on James.
Who was this ordinary — looking man? Why would Herbal Biotech give such a precious herb to him for free? James smiled slightly He had expected this. He knew that it would surely attract Jay's attention if he made a bid.
That was because Jay Fallon went by another identity. He was also Jake Graham, the boss of the underground intelligence network
Jake knew who James was.
Meanwhile, Thea was dumbfounded.
“For free?”
James looked at the dumbfounded Thea and said with a smile, “Honey, how nice of Dr. Fallon, He's showing you respect by giving such a precious thousand-year-old King of Ginseng to you for free.” “Respect?” Thea froze.
James grinned. “I knew this would happen. That was why I made bids despite not having any money. It was all to attract his attention. It turns out to be a resounding success.”
Thea was in a daze.
Was Dr. Fallon showing her respect by gifting her the thousand year-old ginseng because of the mysterious Mr. Caden? “Mr. Caden, Ms. Thea, please come backstage to obtain the ginseng after the auction.”
Saying that, she continued the auction.
Julianna beside her was bewildered.
What was going on?
Why would Herbal Biotech give the precious thousand-year-old King of Ginseng to Jatnes for free even after the bidding price had reached five hundred million? Could he be some big shot?
“Let's go, honey We'll take the ginseng and go home.”
James helped Thea up and turned to leave. Seeing this, Christine called another auctioneer along and went backstage. Christine greeted respectfully, “Mr. Caden, Ms. Thea.” “Ms. Fallon, this gift is too valuable. I can't accept it.”
Thea was here to turn down the gift.
How could she accept such a precious herb? She did not want to owe the mysterious Mr. Caden anymore.
"Of course, we'll accept it,” James spoke immediately.
"James..."
Thea reproached him, “How could we take someone else's stuff for free?”
James scratched his head awkwardly and said, “Honey, it'd be foolish to not accept free stuff.” Christine hurriedly chimed in, “Ms. Thea, this is just a token of my grandfather's regard. It's just a King of Ginseng, Please accept the gift.”
"But"
“No buts.”
James took the King of Ginseng and said with a smile, “Ms. Fallon, thank Dr. Fallon on our behalf.” Saying that, he pulled Thea by the arin and left.
