I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 237 - 235 The Immortal Pill was Eaten by a Dog

"I really don’t understand what you were thinking, spending over a hundred billion on a Breakthrough Pill. Be careful you don’t get diarrhea after eating it!"

After a tense and stimulating auction, Zhang Menglong and others were somewhat hungry, so they decided to eat something in the restaurant before going back to sleep.

"Can’t you use your brain? Do you have to think about playing with women all the time? Can’t you think about other things?" Zhang Menglong rolled his eyes, "Do you think this thing would attract a dozen countries to spend tens of billions of Euros to fight over it if it were just a broken pill? Do you think they are all idiots?"

"This..." Wang Ling was startled. Right, the representatives of those countries weren’t fools, and it was clear that many people came to this auction specifically for the so-called "Immortal Pill". If it had just been ordinary tycoons following rumors that would be one thing, but the fact that even national powers were drawn here meant it was definitely not that simple.

"Could it be that the legend Emma mentioned is real?" It was a bit hard for Wang Ling to accept; his higher education of over a decade and decades-long world view were being challenged like never before.

Of course, as far as Emma was concerned, her introduction only highlighted the aspects of extending life and unlocking potential—these eight characters alone were already quite unbelievable.

"Forget it, as long as you’re happy!" Wang Ling’s brain was becoming a bit numb, "Anyway, it’s your money you’re spending. Why should I worry for you? Even if you do get food poisoning, you can afford the best ICU."

"Haha, you scoundrel!" Zhang Menglong cursed with a laugh.

Just then, Emma, who had already changed out of her evening gown, came over.

Seeing her, Zhang Menglong felt a bit embarrassed; although nothing had happened that day, he had been kissed by force, making her the only woman, apart from Lu Yiyao, with whom he had had intimate contact.

Lu Yiyao seemed to also smell the distinct perfume on Emma, giving Zhang Menglong a glance. She clearly remembered the light scent of perfume on Zhang Menglong when he returned that day—it was this same fragrance.

"Mr. Zhang, may I sit here?"

"This... this might not be convenient," Zhang Menglong had wanted to refuse.

"It’s alright, please have a seat, Miss Emma." To his surprise, Lu Yiyao took the initiative to speak.

"Damn, the war between women has begun," Wang Ling muttered under his breath.

Even though Lu Yiyao wasn’t a particularly scheming girl, at times like this, she still had to assert her own sovereignty.

"Miss Lu really is a warm-hearted person, no wonder Mr. Zhang is so fascinated by you," Emma said enviously.

"Miss Emma is a goddess recognized by the world, aren’t there even more men infatuated with you?"

"What’s the use of that?" Emma sighed. She couldn’t care less about the Prince of England, let alone other men; in her heart, only a special man like Zhang Menglong deserved her.

"Alright, no more mutually flattering business," Zhang Menglong could tell Emma must have something she wanted to discuss with him, "Miss Emma, you must have something to tell me, right?"

"Yes," Emma said, "There are two things I want to talk to Mr. Zhang about."

"Miss Emma, please, don’t hesitate to speak."

"First, I want to thank Mr. Zhang," Emma said, "Thanks to Mr. Zhang, I made a killing tonight."

That evening, just the amount spent by Zhang Menglong alone exceeded 140 billion Euros. Emma’s commission from the auction was based on 30% of the amount exceeding the estimated price.

Apart from the Fighting Spirit Pill, the total value of the goods Zhang Menglong bid on was 35 billion Euros.

Yet the estimated value for this batch of goods was well below 20 billion, just from this alone, Emma made close to 5 billion Euros!

And with the stock value of the Fighting Spirit Pill at 80 billion Euros, the final transaction price astonishingly reached 110 billion Euros. That was another 9 billion Euros in revenue.

This time, her appearance fee was merely 10 million Euros, but her commission reached a staggering 14 billion Euros, all in cash. Her net worth was about to squeeze into the top of the Forbes list!

Under normal circumstances, such high final prices would be impossible.

Every item’s estimated value is assessed by professionals, and the final transaction price normally doesn’t vary much from it. At the last extreme auction, the final amount merely exceeded the estimated value by 120 million US Dollars, and even though there was a commission of several tens of millions of Dollars, it still couldn’t compare to 14 billion Euros.

All this was thanks to Zhang Menglong’s insanely high bids.

While others were adding five million Euros at a time, only Zhang Menglong would start his bids with several hundred million. It would be hard for her not to get rich!

She even suspected that Zhang Menglong was doing this on purpose. But if she knew that Zhang Menglong was simply doing it to spend more money, perhaps Emma would be disappointed.

"And here I was thinking it was something serious," Zhang Menglong laughed, "It’s just a little money, nothing to be polite about. I earned it back in a day."

A look of astonishment flashed in Emma’s eyes, "Earn over a hundred billion Euros in a day? That would mean Zhang Menglong could earn tens of trillions of Euros a year? How... how is that possible?"

"Ding, congratulations to the Director for gaining 3 Cred Points!" Zhang Menglong heard the pleasant sound of Gou Dan in his head.

Zhang Menglong smiled slightly, "To me, money is just a number, not that meaningful. What was the second matter you wanted to discuss?"

"Mr. Zhang, I suggest you leave here immediately tonight!" Emma spoke very seriously, "I don’t know what exactly the Immortal Pill does, the organizers only gave me so much information. But I feel that this item must be extraordinary. From what I know, the dozen or so people who were competing against you today are all representatives from various developed nations."

"They wouldn’t put in such effort to snatch this item if it wasn’t significant. I think they definitely won’t give up easily and might even resort to some special measures," Emma continued, "This is no secret anymore, many guests are planning to leave overnight to avoid getting involved. If you mix into their group, you might run into less trouble."

"Is it really so serious?" Wang Ling’s eyes suddenly filled with tension, "I was wondering why I’ve felt uneasy since a while ago. It seems that this item really is a hot potato!"

Lu Yiyao also grabbed Zhang Menglong’s arm, her eyes full of worry.

"It’s nothing," Zhang Menglong said with an easy smile, "The world is at peace now. I don’t believe they’d dare to make an open move. Do they think the weapons on my Destroyer are just for show?"

"That’s true!" Wang Ling suddenly let out a sigh of relief. He wasn’t aware of the affairs of the second world’s humans, and in his mind, with the presence of the Destroyer, surely no one would be foolish enough to trouble them, right?

As for the hundreds of fighter jets that Zhang Menglong called in last time, were they all a joke?

"You’re right," Emma nodded, "then I won’t disturb you all any longer."

Emma looked towards Zhang Menglong, "Mr. Zhang, if fate allows, we’ll meet again in Huaxia."

"Sure."

After Emma left, Zhang Menglong felt a hand suddenly pinch the soft flesh around his waist, and Lu Yiyao’s eyes gleamed like a little devil, "Let you have a chance to meet again, huh!"

"Ahaha, I was just being polite, ouch..."

"Woof, woof, woof!" Just at that moment, Zhang Menglong felt something tugging at his trouser leg.

He looked down to see a Husky puppy wagging its tail, dressed in what seemed like an expensive outfit, probably belonging to some rich person.

"Little guy, where’s your owner?" Zhang Menglong stroked the Husky’s head, and to his surprise, the puppy sniffed him and he noticed faint tear stains beneath its eyes.

"Dammit, has this Husky become enlightened?" Zhang Menglong exclaimed in surprise.

"So pitiful," Lu Yiyao squatted down, "Could it be that its owner left in such a hurry they forgot about it?"

"Possible!" Zhang Menglong nodded, many wealthy people had fled at the sound of trouble, it was indeed possible that they accidentally left their pets behind.

"Looks like the little guy might be hungry," Zhang Menglong took a small piece of meat from the table, but as he bent down, the small box in his pocket containing the Fighting Spirit Pill fell out, and the pill itself rolled out.

The little Husky sniffed at it cautiously and then gobbled it down in one bite.

Everything happened so fast and naturally that Zhang Menglong and the others couldn’t react in time.

Wang Ling stared at the Husky, dumbfounded, "That Immortal Pill, it’s been eaten by the dog!?"
