Chapter 568 Just Make Him Unable to Pay
"But even if you can't stand him, there's no need to buy it?" Natu knew Fang Jueyu had an extremely deep background. The Transcender he called last time might even be stronger than this Vizi.
If he couldn't stand him, he could just call that Transcender again to give him a beating to vent his anger. Why bother wasting money? This was real Cosmic money!
"I'm a kind person. My favorite thing to do is charity," Fang Jueyu began to boast, "I often buy fish and birds to release them. This is called doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, so I plan to buy him today and then set him free, just to accumulate some good karma for myself!"
"Is that the same?" If it were possible, Natu would have liked to choke Fang Jueyu. How much are birds and beasts worth? How much is a Transcender worth?
"62 million source credits!" In the building at seat number five, the Transcender named Vizi's face turned as black as coal.
This Ma Yun only added 100,000 source credits on top of his bid. It was obviously to disgust him!
But there was no choice, even though he now wanted to cut Fang Jueyu into a thousand pieces, with those Transcenders present, he still didn't dare to act rashly.
The last auction with a Transcender had one bought for 65 million source credits by a Cosmic Dojo master. This time the price shouldn't exceed 70 million source credits. The current price was already very high.
"62.01 million source credits!" Fang Jueyu slowly typed another number.
"Bang!" Vizi punched the table, which left no trace even for a Controller, and it shattered instantly into countless pieces. "This kid is too arrogant, this is blatant provocation!"
"65 million source credits!" Vizi suppressed his anger and increased it by 3 million source credits, almost equivalent to one small fourth-level civilization.
"65.01 million source credits!"
"Oh my god, what's the background of this Ma Yun, is this rich civilization really that wealthy?"
"Such a huge amount, even for the ruler of a top civilization, is not a small figure!"
"70 million source credits!"
"Lord Vizi, we can't continue bidding, don't forget we're here for that thing, if we deduct this 70 million source credits from our funds, there won't be much left," Vizi's subordinate reported immediately, even his deputy was a Transcender.
"If he continues to bid, then let him have it!" This Transcender level slave was rare but not irreplaceable. Though cultivating a Transcender in his dojo was not easy, it was possible with enough investment.
"Host, the price is already very high, there's no need for us to continue bidding."
"How can we stop? I just can't stand that old pretentious guy, if he wins, who knows how arrogant he'll be!"
"Host, spending 70 million source credits to buy a Transcender is already quite unwise. If you want to embarrass Vizi, I have ways to do it!" Xiao Yi suddenly smirked.
"Oh? Tell me," Fang Jueyu loved doing mischief.
"Heh heh, isn't he trying to spend money on that Transcender? If he can't pay when the time comes, hahaha..."
"But all our money is in the Cosmic Bank? Our family is only a shareholder of this Cosmic supermarket chain, not the Cosmic Bank itself."
"Who said you're not," Xiao Yi said, "The money in the Cosmic Bank belongs to those depositors, not the bank itself. Such a large bank always needs someone to manage it, right?"
"What do you mean?"
"The Cosmic Bank has 12 permanent directors to make decisions, and your Fang Family is one of them. All permissions of directors can be directly accessed through your family's nine-star account in the Cosmic Bank!"
"Whoa, why didn't you say this earlier, that's too powerful!" Fang Jueyu's mouth twitched upon hearing this. This sounded like the bank was no different from being part of their family!
"Heh heh, as a director of the Cosmic Bank, you have certain privileges, do you understand what I'm saying?"
"Got it!" Fang Jueyu's eyes spun with excitement, "Xiao Yi, help me contact Paless!"
...
"Then if no one raises the bid, this Transcender-level cosmic slave will be won by the owner of seat number five!"
"Strange, why hasn't Ma Yun bid any higher?"
"Obviously he ran out of money. No matter how wealthy his civilization is, how much say can a young man have? It's already incredible he could come up with tens of millions of source credits!"
"Exactly, no wonder he's the owner of the Mohe Arena, such a huge sum, only he could afford it."
"70 million source credits, I remember the last cosmic auction, a fourth-level civilization of the Cosmic Kingdom was auctioned, and it only fetched about 15 million source credits?"
"You shouldn't forget, the master of the Mohe Arena is almost at the level of the Master of the Cosmic Kingdom, managing hundreds of fourth-level civilizations."
"Congratulations Mr. Vizi on successfully purchasing this Transcender slave!"
"Just a kid, how much authority could he have?" Vizi remained composed. However, hearing the murmurs among the bidders in the regular and premium seats discussing him made him feel somewhat pleased inside.
"Kano, transfer 70 million source credits to the auction account for me," Vizi ordered his intelligent system.
"Yes, Master!"
...
"Master, there seems to be an issue with the transfer."
"What? How could this happen?" Vizi felt a jolt. The funds in his account should have exceeded 70 million source credits, how could there be a problem?
"What's going on? Contact my account advisor immediately!" Vizi's user level at the Cosmic Bank was very high. According to protocol, Cosmic Bank clients surpassing six stars have long-term advisors managing their assets.
"Esteemed six-star Cosmic Bank client Mr. Vizi, good day." Vizi connected with his personal wealth advisor.
"What's happening? Why can't I access my assets?"
"Sorry Mr. Vizi, your assets have been frozen due to some unknown reasons and are temporarily unavailable."
"What? How could this happen?" Vizi's heart tightened, knowing that in such high-level auctions, if he couldn't pay for the item after winning, it would not only lower his future credit rating but also require him to pay 10% of the final bid price as compensation for the failed auction.
That was 7 million source credits, definitely not a trivial amount for him.
"We are investigating the reason, but the freeze was directly executed by the Board of Directors, I'm afraid we're powerless in this matter, we sincerely apologize for the impact on you. Once we clarify the reason, we'll offer you appropriate compensation."
"The Board directly executed the action?" Vizi was still slightly dazed. His funds had always been clean and had never had problems before. How could something go wrong this time?
"Mr. Vizi, please complete the payment as soon as possible, otherwise this auction item will be declared unsold!" The elder on stage urged, unable to receive confirmation of payment completion from the conference.
Vizi knew that, by now, many were inwardly suspecting and even ridiculing him, only not voicing it due to his status and position.
At this moment, a voice he found intensely loathsome resonated inappropriately: "Hahaha, Mr. Vizi, you should really not pretend to be rich if you can't afford something, it's quite embarrassing!"
