The Legendary Man Chapter 433

Jade Pendant

“Two hundred million going once!

“Two hundred million going twice!

“Two hundred million going trice!

“Sold!”

When that word was uttered, the auctioneer raised his gavel and slammed it to the table. This signified that the guest in Room 9 now owned The King’s Portrait, having offered two hundred million for it.

Logan’s eyes widened when he saw the figures flashing brightly on the LCD screen. The King’s Portrait was valued at a whopping two hundred million!

Shocked, he turned around and asked, “Mr. Goldstein, is this painting really worth that much?”

Although he was the commander-in-chief of the Durbaine Special Forces, his yearly salary was only in the millions.

After tax deductions, he was only left with a few hundred thousand.

He used two hundred million! All of that just to buy a painting? Wouldn’t it be better if he dropped all this cash on raising a few hundred more troops?

“Two hundred million is nothing, really,” said Jonathan coolly. “Drake has a similar painting that fetched five hundred million on the black market abroad. There’s a price for this kind of thing, but it’s not necessarily something money can buy even if you have that much lying around.”

“Surely, this is ridiculous!” Logan was flabbergasted. He scratched his head, unable to imagine how a silly painting could be worth hundreds of millions. With this amount, he could’ve easily bought a brand new helicopter.

“That can’t be helped. There are too many rich people around,” Jonathan said. “Also, the painting isn’t the important thing here. Haven’t you heard?”
