On the stage, Keith's smile grew wider.

The Harris family was also one of the top four families in Midwich, and Keith was the heir of the Harris family.

The top four families were rivals with each other, wanting the others to go down.

Seeing Sherleen humiliated at the hands of an unknown young man, Keith beamed with joy.

He coughed, put on a stern expression, and said, "Everyone, Number 71 offered three million dollars for these 30 medical books. Is there anyone offering a higher price? Any more? Take the chance, or the 30 medical books will belong to Number 71."

Number 71 is the number on Sean's auction paddle.

As soon as Keith finished speaking, Sherleen angrily raised her auction paddle.

"Four million dollars!"

Keith nodded and looked back at Sean. "Number 33 bid four million dollars. Is anyone..."

Before Keith could finish speaking, Sean raised his auction paddle.

"Five million dollars."

Unlike the furious Sherleen, Sean was calm and impassive in his expression and tone.

    "You... b*stard!"Sherleen's hands and feet were shaking with anger.Keith looked at Sean and said with a chuckle, "Mrs. Yale just bid six million. Do you want to keep bidding, Mr. Lennon?"Keith did not even address them according to the paddle numbers anymore; he went by Mrs. Yale and Mr. Lennon.Sean smiled and nodded before slowly saying, "I bid ten million dollars for the 30 medical books."'Ten million!'Sherleen had bid six million, and now Sean bid ten million in the blink of an eye!How terrifying.Even Sherleen, who was the head of the Yale family, felt intense pressure because of the ten million."Mom, forget it. Grandpa's disease can't be cured just by buying some medical books. They probably don't have such a magical effect even if they're Dr. Humphrey's medical books. After all, medical books have to be studied first. No one can master Dr. Humphrey's medical skill through 30 books."Sherman spoke to his mother, Sherleen, as he grabbed her by the wrist.Sherleen

    Although they still had no idea who Sean was or where he came from, they could already tell Sean was not Chief Police Wholeton's subordinate.It was because even Chief Police Wholeton dared not go against the Yale family. If Sean was really Gabe's subordinate, how could he go against the Yale family without Gabe’s protection?"There are so many talents out there."An old man in his seventies glanced at Sean in the back row and said slowly."It looks like things are going to change for us in Midwich." Another person said as if anticipating something.The auction continued.The next auction item came on stage, and the atmosphere in the auction room gradually became bustling.Gabe grimaced as he said to Sean, "Sir, would you please give me a heads up before doing anything? I was scared to death.""Are you scared of such a small incident? You're a very good chief of police."Zander was not mocking him; he was just joking.Gabe said with a sigh, "A chief of police has a lot of pow

    How expensive!Most of the people present did not have the financial means to buy such a hotel.However, a small group of people was also interested in East World Hotel.It included the patriarch of the Sheldon family—Caden, sitting on the far left of the first row, and the patriarch of the Jensen family—Fernando!"Here comes the fun."Fernando said as he rubbed his hands together, his face flushed."Dad, are we bidding on East World Hotel? Why didn't you tell me?" Jonathan asked.Fernando glanced at his precious son before snapping with a laugh, "If I told you, wouldn't you have announced it to everyone? It's a trade secret. How could I tell you so easily?"Jonathan nodded in understanding and agreement.The patriarch of the Sheldon family—Caden, sitting on the far left of the first row, frowned slightly and said, "East World Hotel is up for auction. The Jensen family will go after it... They must win the hotel.""Should we bid then? The Sheldon family isn't in the real esta

    On one hand, it was because the price increase was too large, so the guests present found it hard to comprehend for a moment.The other was because the bid was made by none other than a member of one of the top four families—the patriarch of the Jensen family, Fernando!The Jensen family had spoken up. Who would now compete with the Jensen family?Of course, there were still people who dared to compete, but they were still in the minority."Haha, we want East World Hotel. No one's going to give us a hard time, right?"Fernando got up with a smile and gestured to the guests.The guests around him looked at Fernando's smile and buttered him up."Mr. Jensen, since you have your eye on East World Hotel, the rest of us won't compete with you, of course.""Yeah, we're not interested.""We're not in the real estate business, so we're not interested in running a hotel. Mr. Jensen, you can have it if you want it."Fernando was in a good mood as he heard so many compliments and flatter

    Caden was so mad that his beard trembled, and he said, "I'm still adding one million dollars. 81 million dollars!"Fernando sneered and said, "Do you think I won't add more? I bid 85 million!""86 million!"Fernando was not backing down.The guests present were so shocked that their scalps tingled.They were two of the top four families in Midwich.The competition between the Sheldon family and the Jensen family was intense. No one was backing down!East World Hotel's price was now close to 90 million, which was something the vast majority of guests did not have. They could only watch the bidding greedily.The Yale family seemed uninterested and remained silent throughout."Mom, aren't we going to bid?" Sherman asked with a smile.Sherleen shook her head and said, "We came to the auction today for Dr. Humphrey's 30 medical books. I'm not interested in anything else. Besides, the Yale family is not short of business. We're having problems keeping all our subsidiaries in contro

    It was a threat from two noble families! An outright threat!If the average person were to confront the Jensen family and the Sheldon family at the same time, they would probably have peed their pants.However, Sean was undaunted as the look on his face did not change at all."Did you hear what I said?" Fernando slammed onto the table and shouted.Caden also snapped, "Young man, you have an exaggerated opinion of your abilities..."Sean held up the auction paddle again before he could finish speaking."I've changed my mind. I'll raise my bid by 20 million to a total of 120 million for East World Hotel!"120 million!Before Caden and Fernando could increase their bid, Sean did it first!Besides that, he added 20 million right away!The guests were so shocked that their brains were buzzing as if they had a hive of bees in their brains.Sean's action could be said to leave no face for the two noble families. It was almost equivalent to humiliating them in front of everyone.Th

    Sean turned to look at Fernando and asked with a smile, "It's 150 million now. Mr. Jensen, are you going to continue competing with me?"Fernando's face was so gloomy that he wanted to say yes, but he could not make up his mind at the sky-high price of 150 million.After all, the momentum Sean was building was too powerful.There was no way Fernando could guarantee that he could outbid Sean, so what if Sean kept increasing the price?Keith on stage smiled and reminded him, "Mr. Lennon bid 150 million for East World Hotel. Is there anyone offering a higher bid? 150 million going once... 150 million going twice...""Dad!"Jonathan tugged at Fernando's sleeve again.However, Fernando hesitated to continue his competition with Sean."Sold for 150 million! Sold! East World Hotel goes to Mr. Lennon!"Keith knocked the gavel with a thud.It was settled.Sean had taken over East World Hotel for 150 million Dragon dollars.Sitting next to Sean, Zander remained calm, but Gabe was swe

    After all, it was a free profit out of nowhere, and it was so big.After all, East World Hotel's net revenue was about 30 million to 40 million a year. What was the bonus for 20% of the shares?Six to eight million!That was a lot of money!"Just take it when I give it to you!" Sean said earnestly.Gabe nodded excitedly at this, "Alright, I see. I'll work hard for it, Commander!"It was getting late, and Gabe quickly drove away and returned to his place.Sean entered the hotel with Zander.As soon as Sean entered the hotel lobby, he saw all the female attendants and male security guards forming two separate lines to greet him and Zander respectfully."Welcome back, Boss!"The greeting in unison was novel to Sean and Zander.Zander said to Sean with a chuckle, "Commander, you're the boss again.""What do you mean 'again'?"Sean glared at Zander, and Zander shut up.A middle-aged woman in a black suit and skirt walked over with two slightly younger women."Boss, we receive

    "Even if you haven't stepped into the legendary Transcendence Realm yet, you're already capable enough to overpower most martial artists! Mr. Lennon, you've possessed such strength at your age. You'll surely enter that legendary realm one day!" Adam exclaimed.He had practiced diligently day after day for decades, yet he was only a Beginner Great Grandmaster. Even so, he was one of the most talented martial artists among several generations of Greendom Chapel members. However, that talent was as different as night and day compared to Sean.Sean was now only in his 20s, yet he already possessed the strength to rival the supreme priest who had passed away.There were no other people as strong as Sean in the entire Dragon Kingdom."Alright, stop flattering me. I'll have someone transfer 500 million to you later. You can use it to improve Greendom Chapel's current situation. When the time comes, I'll accompany you to meet that man from Melode Cathedral," Sean said with a smile as he sh

    "Mr. Lennon, you also know how strong that old priest is. We Catholics only have the supreme priest who could rival him. Now that the supreme priest has passed away, that old priest has become even more arrogant..." Sean nodded slightly and sighed before expressing his regret. "It's a pity about the supreme priest.""Human life has its limitations. The path of martial arts is long and arduous. Few people in history have been able to reach the legendary Transcendence Realm." Adam sighed as well. He had already reached Great Grandmaster Realm that countless martial artists dreamed of. Even so, there were opponents he could not defeat and problems he could not solve."Mr. Lennon, since you're willing to leave that calligraphy in Greendom Chapel, you must have some history with Greendom Chapel. I wonder if you can tell me," Adam finally said after a moment of silence.Adam was the former chaplain of Greendom Chapel, but he had gone into seclusion to further advance himself after stepp

    A Christian refers to a follower of Jesus Christ who might be a Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, or follower of another branch of the religion. A Catholic was a Christian who followed the Catholic religion transmitted through the succession of Popes, who were leaders of the Catholic church. Thus, All Roman Catholics were Christian, but not all Christians were Roman Catholic. The difference in beliefs had put the two in conflict."Could it be that their conflict has reignited? Didn't a Catholic priest warn those donkeys?" Sean asked with a frown.Adam nodded slightly and sighed before slowly replying, "It's just as you said. After the passing of Tiger Mountain's supreme priest, Christians often gave us Catholics a hard time. Now, not only are chaplains from all over Dragon Kingdom affected, but even Greendom Chapel has gotten into this situation."Most chaplains and churches relied on donations from their followers for their income. Once they lost this source of income, chaplains and

    Meanwhile, a daunting aura rose from the old chaplain.The Brown brothers’ expressions instantly changed, even being forced back three steps by the pressure from the old chaplain before barely stopping.Willow's eyes filled with panic. She felt like she had encountered a mortal enemy and had her life on the line.Sean's gaze focused before he immediately reached out to hold Willow."Cut that intimidating aura out. Who are you trying to scare?" Sean snapped as he looked at the old chaplain.However, the old chaplain's kind demeanor changed. He stared solemnly at Sean and asked, "I'm asking who you are.""Who am I? Is my calligraphy in Greendom Chapel gone?" Sean replied indifferently.The old chaplain froze in place as if struck by lightning."What? The old chaplain is from Greendom Chapel? How is that possible… Greendom Chapel is a nationally renowned holy place. H-How could one of their chaplains be selling counterfeit goods here?" Willow exclaimed. Her hands covered her mouth

    The smile on the old chaplain's face instantly froze. He looked awkwardly at Sean and stammered, "L-Look at my age. How could I engage in deceitful acts? God... I've lived a righteous life. I didn't expect to be so misunderstood in my twilight years..."Seeing the old chaplain's pitiful expression, Willow could not help but feel sorry for him.However, Sean looked disdainfully at the old chaplain before saying with a smile, "Sir, perhaps being an actor suits you better than being a chaplain."The old chaplain's acting skills were impeccable. He might even win a prize if he attended some award ceremony. With his white beard and the slightly worn-out robe that had turned somewhat faded, others might indeed mistake Sean for misunderstanding the old chaplain."Sir, you can't say such things! I've lived an honest life. You can't just tarnish my reputation!" The old chaplain pleaded earnestly, looking at Sean.Ignoring the old chaplain, Sean picked up a vase from the stall before him. W

    Sean glanced at Elton and Bernie beside him and said with a smile. Elton and Bernie scratched their heads awkwardly and beamed. "After we finish browsing Antiques Street, let's head to the new company office together and get acquainted with it. At least we won't end up not knowing where our company is in the future."Daniel and his brothers immediately nodded.Then, the group continued to stroll through Antiques Street. However, Antiques Street had been around for so many years, and each stall was run by shrewd peddlers, who made it increasingly difficult to find hidden treasures.Even with Sean's keen eye, he had not come across a genuine antique after strolling through Antiques Street for so long. All he saw were counterfeit antiques that looked authentic.After another ten minutes or so, Sean suddenly stopped in his tracks.Not far away, an old man with white hair in a black robe opened up a large bag of items and placed the items on the ground. He then took out a small sto

    Willow held Sean's arm, her face filled with happiness.Sean scanned the surroundings of the street stalls with a smile, searching for genuine antiques. The Brown brothers quietly followed Sean. With the Brown brothers standing behind Sean like bodyguards, the street peddlers who had heard about suckers in Antiques Street were now hesitant to make any sudden moves."Mr. Lennon, I heard this place is full of scammers. You wouldn't want to ruin your reputation here," Daniel reminded with a chuckle.Sean glanced at him and replied flatly, "Come on. Would my reputation be ruined in such a small place? Check out the two little trinkets Willow bought for only 500 dollars. If we auction them off, I can make at least 20 million dollars!"Daniel and his brothers paused and turned to look at the hairpin and the ring Willow was holding.Seeing the three men interested in the items, Willow stopped and handed the hairpin and ring to Daniel. "Feel free to take a look."Since they were Sean's

    It was normal to pay others for their service. Sean only gave them 10 thousand dollars when he had made 20 million dollars a while ago. Ten thousand was just a drop in the bucket. Daniel and his brothers swiftly made their way through Antiques Street, soon spotting Sean and Willow. Sensing someone approaching, Sean immediately turned around to look. Sean smiled when he saw the Brown brothers."Mr. Lennon! Mrs. Lennon!" Daniel and his brothers greeted respectfully when they arrived before Sean and Willow. Willow felt slightly embarrassed at being called "Mrs. Lennon" and only nodded slightly before looking elsewhere. Sean nodded with a smile. Fortunately, this part of Antiques Street was relatively isolated with few people around. Otherwise, Daniel and his brothers' sudden appearance would attract attention."Mr. Lennon, you spotted us from so far away. Your abilities are admirable!" Daniel lamented.Sean shook his head with a smile and said flatly, "Martial arts is all a

    "Don't be offended. Mr. Lennon also instructed us to watch over these three guys here," Bobby answered with a smile, not mentioning that they were hired earlier to mess with Sean for 3 thousand dollars.The four men standing before them were burly and not easy to mess with. Bobby would not foolishly tell them he had tried to trouble Sean."Is that so? How can we be sure you're not associated with these two?" Daniel asked hostilely as he raised his eyebrows skeptically.Bobby and his henchmen's expressions immediately changed, fear evident in their eyes. Bobby quickly pulled out his phone, showed the transaction record of Sean's payment, and said, "Look, look! This is the record of the money Mr. Lennon just wired me!"Zander glanced at it, confirming the identities of the three men in front of him as the same ones Sean had mentioned on the phone."I'll take these two back to the company. You three can find Mr. Lennon and help him out with any troubles," Zander said solemnly.Dan
