Chapter 121: Deliberately Going Against Him

This ethereal voice shocked everyone present.
Did they dare to go against the Jian Group?
Everyone turned to look at the source of the voice, only to see Jian Ai with a calm expression and a teasing smile on her lips. On the other hand, Bai Zhou obediently raised the number plate in his hand.
The combination of these two people was a little strange. What confused everyone was that regardless of whether it was Bai Zhou or Jian Ai, they were unfamiliar faces to everyone. No one knew them at all.
“Who are these two people?”
“I’ve never seen them before. That man’s appearance is so striking. If I’ve seen him before, I would have remembered him.”
“That girl called the price just now, right?”
“Isn’t this nonsense…”
The private conversation broke out. Everyone looked at the two of them differently. Some were sizing them up, while others were curious.
Jian Changsheng also looked at them with a puzzled look. However, since they had dimmed the lights in the room because they were playing a video on screen, Jian Changsheng, who was sitting in the front row, couldn’t see Jian Ai and Bai Zhou who were hidden in the corner.
At this moment, Chen Lei said in a low voice, “Chairman Jian, this piece of land should be priced at fifty million yuan at the most. It’s quite difficult to develop it. I think you should reconsider!”
Although Chen Lei’s Century Group and Jian Changsheng’s Jian Group were arch-enemies, they had a decent private relationship. Chen Lei’s words were indeed what he was thinking. Although the current real estate industry in Baiyun City was developing steadily, the land around schools had always been the developer’s greatest headache. Because the rules were laid out, the construction difficulty was huge.
At this moment, Jian Changsheng was conflicted. The Jian Group had started to dabble in other industries in the past few years. Jian Changsheng had always wanted to find a piece of land in Baiyun City that was more than ten thousand square meters to build an amusement park. The host also said just now that this piece of land was currently being auctioned off as the largest piece of land in Baiyun City. If he missed this piece of land, there would be nothing else.
Thinking about what Chen Lei said, although this piece of land was very suitable to be developed into an amusement park, the current bid of forty-six million yuan had indeed reached the limit. If he increased the bid, others would inevitably say that their Jian Group was bullying other players and deliberately raising the bid.
Jian Changsheng was hesitating when the host started to count down…
“Forty-six million yuan going once!”
“Forty-six million yuan going twice!”
“Forty-six million yuan…”
Just as he was about to strike the hammer, Jian Changsheng struggled in his heart. He quickly raised his card and gritted his teeth. “Forty-nine million yuan!”
Jian Changsheng was very determined. Other than the land in Haicheng District, he could not bid fifty million yuan to another district in Baiyun City! However, before he could catch his breath, Jian Ai blurted out without thinking, “Fifty-two million yuan!”
When Bai Zhou saw this, he could not help but smile slightly, revealing a charming smile. It seemed that the Sect Master was determined to get this piece of land. Thinking that he would be the one to fork out the fifty million yuan, Bai Zhou immediately felt that he was useful and quickly raised his number plate.
Everyone was speechless again. They looked at Jian Ai with even more complicated expressions and probing eyes.
No one could remember who else in the real estate industry in Baiyun City could fork out so much money to buy a piece of land that was not easy to develop.
Jian Changsheng frowned. He instinctively felt that the other party did it on purpose. The price of the land had far exceeded the market value. They were deliberately going against him.
