Chapter 762

A hush fell over the crowd.

Did Sean say that the 100 million dollars that the Zimmer family had spent was just interest?

Did that mean that Sean did not plan on letting them go? Did he want them to pay an even higher price?

Everyone was perplexed.

What was the origin of this man named "Sean Lennon"?

One, he had no background; two, he did not own a company or properties, and yet he could spend tens of millions or even hundreds of

millions of dollars.

The more mystery that shrouded this man, the more others feared and respected him.

At that moment, Sean was an extremely mysterious person.

Thus, even with so many wealthy people present who wanted to curry favor with the Zimmer family, none of them dared to speak up against

Sean.

"Fine, I'll wait."

Quill gritted his teeth and scoffed in reply.

The auction had come to an end, yet the audience did not rush to leave because the auction's highlight had just begun.

There was nothing impressive about having the guts to make a bid. True skills lay in the capability to pay for it.

Even though the auction was organized by the management, no one dared to mess around.

However, there was no guarantee that everyone would abide by the rules.

Therefore, it was only after the auction ended that one's financial resources could be appraised.

Out of the three pieces of land, Sean had taken one, and the Zimmer family had taken two.

The other wealthy folks were nothing more than sparring partners that day.

"You've had your fun, Sean! Now hand over the money! You dared to raise the price against us to 200

million dollars, so surely you can fork over 60 million dollars, right?”

Quill chuckled and got up, raising his voice against Sean.

Upon hearing Quill’s words, all the rich people in the audience turned and looked at them.

Sean's actions had shocked the crowd today.

However, whether Sean was really rich or not depended on if he could come up with the money.

"It's Mr. Lennon's first time participating in our auction, so perhaps there are some things he doesn't

quite understand. So..."

The beautiful woman in the dress was still trying to help Sean.

However, Sean just raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

Zander got up immediately and walked toward the stage.

The bank card reader was brought onto the stage too.

"He’s still trying to keep up his act. There's no way that he can pay 60 million dollars in one go. Even

credit cards have a limit."

Until now, Quill still thought that Sean was just putting on an act.

Soon, his smile froze in its place.

Zander calmly took out the bank card and keyed in his password.

It was then accompanied by a prompt that indicated that the transaction was completed. A receipt was

also printed out by the payment machine.

Jon and Quill became speechless.

The wealthy men and women in the audience, on the other hand, inhaled sharply. Then, a single,

collective thought formed in their minds. They made a decision.

'We've got to form a connection with him!'

They had to do whatever it takes to build a good relationship with Sean.

This was a dazzling example of youth that held great potential in River City’s business circle.

In the business circle, financial resources were extremely important.

Money was the stepping stone to River City's high society.

At that moment, when Sean had taken out 60 million dollars on the spot, he had already been

recognized by the crowd of rich businessmen and property developers.

From that moment onwards, every one of them who bumped into Sean would call him President

Lennon.

After Zander completed the payment, he received a formal document of approval with the official seal.

From then on, only Sean was allowed to develop that piece of land.

"Your turn, President Zimmer."

Sean glanced at the document before putting it aside. Then, he turned his attention to Jon Zimmer.

"Hmph! The financial capabilities of the Zimmer family are beyond your imagination."

Jon scoffed and walked onto the stage, getting ready to make his payment.

They made bids for two pieces of land today with a total sum of 250 million dollars.

Jon made the payment for the first piece of land swiftly, which cost 35 million dollars.

However, when it came to the second piece of prized land, Jon did not make a payment.

Instead, he approached the lady in the dress and some of the nearby staff and whispered something to them.

"President Zimmer doesn't have the money?"

Zander got up immediately and called out to the stage.

Jon pretended not to hear anything, but it was obvious that his face had slightly turned red.

For this piece of land, Jon had prepared a total of 200 million dollars.

He thought that this amount would have sufficed.

Of course, without Sean's interference, 200 million dollars would have been enough to buy all three plots of land.

However, two plots of land now cost 255 million dollars, which exceeded their budget.

They would not be able to hand over the extra 55 million immediately.

So, he was now negotiating with the organizer's staff.

"I can make up for the money in three days, max. So how about I just pay for it partially now?"

Jon looked at the staff and asked in a whisper.

"I'm afraid that can't be done, Mr. Zimmer."

The lady in the dress frowned slightly. She thought of how casually Sean had just handed over the money, and yet here Jon Zimmer was,

dawdling over his payment. A hint of disdain passed over her gaze.

"Don’t waste our time. If President Zimmer doesn’t have the money, he should just give up. Our Mr. Lennon doesn’t mind buying up this

piece of land."

Zander’s words were merciless, they were like knives to his heart.
