Chapter 702: Asset Appraisal

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The auctioneer on stage had seen it all and was a master at reading people. He could naturally discern the underlying message behind the expressions of the father and son duo.

Despite his reluctance, he chose to momentarily halt the auction.

โ€œI apologize for the interruption, everyone. We need to briefly pause to consult with the Blake father and son,โ€ he announced.

The auctioneer stepped down and approached the Blakes.

โ€œBoth of you seem distressed. Have you encountered a problem?โ€ he inquired. ๐‘“๐“‡๐˜ฆ๐˜ฆ๐“Œ๐˜ฆ๐‘๐˜ฏ๐˜ฐ๐‘ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ.๐‘๐˜ฐ๐‘š

Hearing the auctioneerโ€™s words, the Blake duo tried to keep their composure, replying, โ€œNo problem. Thereโ€™s absolutely no issue.โ€

Their forced calm made the auctioneer slightly exasperated. If they would admit their issue now, they would merely be liable for a 10% penalty on the agreed amount. However, if they denied any problem and later failed to produce the payment after the auction, they would face significant consequences.

Not wanting to waste time, the auctioneer signaled two of his assistants.

โ€œIโ€™m sorry, Mr. Blake, but we need you to undergo an asset appraisal with our staff. โ€

Blake had been looking for a reason to cause a scene, and this was the perfect opportunity. โ€œWhat do you mean by this? Are you insinuating that I cannot afford the 250 million? Everyone present today is a significant figure with assets exceeding billions. You dare to malign me with such baseless accusations!โ€

As Blake erupted, the auctioneer understood the situation even more clearly: Blake most likely didnโ€™t have the money and was now trying to dodge the payment.

โ€œSir, please cooperate. If you donโ€™t, we might have to resort to forceful measures.โ€

โ€œWhat forceful measures? You wouldnโ€™t dare!โ€

Asset appraisal was a straightforward process to ascertain if an individualโ€™s account held the requisite amount. Some shameless individuals enjoyed causing chaos at auctions, bidding exorbitantly and then failing to produce the money, wasting everyoneโ€™s time.

Auctions wouldnโ€™t usually resort to asset appraisals, as it signified a complete lack of trust in the client. If the client was found lacking, the auction house would merely avoid a minor hassle. But if the client did have the assets, the house would risk alienating a major customer.

Caught in this situation, the Blakes knew that if they failed this appraisal, they would lose face throughout Florida.

โ€œSo, are you certain about the appraisal?โ€ Blake senior asked the auctioneer with evident disgust. The auctioneer was confident in his judgment.

โ€œAs you know, in our line of business, we donโ€™t usually request asset appraisals.

But since weโ€™ve asked for it now, we intend to see it through.โ€

Given the auctioneerโ€™s stance, the Blakes had no choice but to comply.

During the appraisal process, the hall was abuzz with speculation about the Blakesโ€™ financial standing and how the situation might resolve.

Luo Feng was particularly keen on the outcome. If the Blakes failed the appraisal, the gilded mask would be up for auction again, giving him a legitimate chance to acquire it.

However, when the Blakes emerged from the appraisal room, the result disappointed Luo Feng.

Who would have thought that the Blake duo could actually produce such a

sum? Their ashen faces hinted at the gravity of their decision. To spend their entire fortune on a single golden mask was not a wise investment.

Perhaps, Luo Feng mused, he could purchase the mask from them after the auction. After all, the mask held no real value to them, and the financial strain of 250 million was substantial. The Blakes werenโ€™t part of any super-wealthy clan. An abrupt expense of 250 million was not something they might easily absorb. novelbuddy.c om

While the auction continued with several antiques, none piqued Luo Fengโ€™s interest, especially since the items were from the nations of the Cherry Blossom and Tai Chi.

Luo Feng waited patiently for the auction to conclude. Once it was over, he approached the Blakes before they could leave.

โ€œIโ€™d like to discuss a business proposition with you. Do you have a moment?โ€

Upon seeing Luo Feng, Blakeโ€™s disdain was palpable. โ€œI have no interest in discussing business with you, especially someone of your stature. Laughable!โ€ โ€œWe advise you to leave while we are still in a good mood.โ€

It was evident that the duo held significant animosity towards Luo Feng. Yet, Luo Feng chose to overlook their harsh words.

โ€œAre you sure you donโ€™t want to discuss it?โ€ he asked calmly..
