I Am Born With A Silver Spoon Novel Chapter 741

Duan Feng nodded after listening to the man in the black robe. “Master, I see what you mean now. I know what to do next!”

With a plan already forming in his head, Duan Feng smirked coldly.

After Chen Hao’s exorbitant bid, it was needless to say that no one else dared to outbid him anymore.

Duan Feng’s initial admirers turned to stare at Chen Hao in shock. No one expected this person—who had such bland appearance—to possess such wealth.

There were even some women who started to ogle at Chen Hao and begged to get his attention.

Yet, did they really think that they’d be able to grab his attention?

As for Chen Hao, he had already mapped out his own plan before spending that much on the fly whisk.

Even though that amount of money meant nothing to him, Chen Hao was not someone who would splurge on anything.

He decided to bid the item at such a high price because he wanted a favor from the organizer of the event. After all, he needed to inquire about the origins of the fly whisk.

Just as expected, the staff brought the manager out respectfully when Chen Hao asked for him.

The manager was a middle-aged plump man whose surname was Wang.

“Young Master Chen, I really appreciate your support and being the biggest investor for this auction. Here is my name card!” said Manager Wang reverently.

“Manager Wang, I want to ask you something. I would like to know more about the origin of the fly whisk!”

Chen Hao did not beat around the bush as he went straight to the point.

“Regarding this issue, Young Master Chen, you ought to know that we cannot disclose any information on our partners without the permission from the previous owner!”

Manager Wang smiled.

“However, since Young Master Chen has spent such a tremendous amount on the fly whisk, I will let you in on some information!”

Just as Manager Wang was about to go into detail, a young man walked up to him.

The young man glanced at Shen Tiangang and the rest before whispering into Manager Wang’s ear.

Manager Wang was startled at first, but he quickly nodded after that.

“I understand, I understand!”

The young man proceeded to leave.

“What was that about? Can you tell us about the fly whisk now?”

Shen Tiangang took a peek at the young man who came in earlier before shifting his glance back toward Manager Wang.

“Of course. But before that, Young Master Chen and CEO Shen, a friend of mine happens to fancy that fly whisk too. Moreover, he is so eager to own it that he has booked the entire hotel. Let me be the middleman, and I’ll let the both of you meet to talk it over. We might even strike a big deal if all of it goes well!”

Manager Wang’s expression and tone took a 180-degree turn when he spoke to Chen Hao.

Chen Hao seemed to have understood what he was trying to imply.

This matter surely has something to do with Young Master Duan or the cultivator; too bad it would not be that easy to take the fly whisk away from me, Chen Hao thought to himself.

From what Manager Wang had said, it seemed like Young Master Duan had more influence and power compared to himself.

“Master Chen, what should we do now?” Shen Tiangang asked in a low voice.

“Since we have been invited to talk it over, it would not make any sense if we do not show up. Let’s follow Manager Wang to meet his friend,” said Chen Hao. “You never know, this item we bought for one billion might increase manyfold!”

Chen Hao let out a faint smile.

Shen Tiangang was uncertain but since Master Chen had spoken, there was nothing left for him to say.

He could only go along with his decision.

Before anyone could catch a glimpse of it, a hint of trickery flashed across Manager Wang’s face when he turned around.

Manager Wang led the group to the highest floor of the Ji Province Grand Hotel.

In the meantime, the entire hotel had been completely emptied of guests.

They were brought to the most luxurious suite in the building.

Chen Hao, Shen Tiangang and the rest walked in as the door to the suite was pushed open.

“Uncle Shen, I never thought that we would meet again so quickly.”

The first thing they saw as they walked into the room was Duan Feng. He was sitting comfortably at the head seat, smiling as he stood up to greet them.

“Oh, it’s you, Duan Feng!” yelled Shen Tiangang furiously.

“Uncle Shen, don’t be so hot-tempered. Let me get straight to the point. The reason I have invited all of you here is not only to catch up with Uncle Shen, but also to entertain Young Master Chen, who is from out-of-town!” said Duan Feng.

As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Feng clapped his hands. “Waiters, serve them tea!”

The waiters entered swiftly upon Duan Feng’s command, bringing boiled water with them.

However, when they opened the teapot, there was only leftover tea dust inside it.

The tea that was being brewed smelled horrible too.

“Duan Feng, what do you mean by this?” Shen Tiangang yelled with rage. It was obvious that Duan Feng was trying to provoke them. Even though he had invited them here, he had no respect for them whatsoever.

“Hehe, am I not serving tea to the both of you?” Duan Feng sneered mockingly.

“I have no problem drinking your tea, but we can talk about it later. You’re Young Master Duan, right? Why don’t you get straight to your point and tell us the real reason you’ve invited us here? Even if you want to negotiate the price of the fly whisk, you should do it promptly!”

Chen Hao glanced at Duan Feng.

Meanwhile, the cultivator in the black robe sat beside Duan Feng without moving an inch.

He is probably the person who knows almost everything about Duan Feng, and also the person whom Duan Feng relies on the most, Chen Hao thought.

“Sure! Since you like to get things done quickly, I will not beat around the bush any longer. This Destiny Whisk is a very magical tool. Coincidentally, it is a great use to me. Therefore, I want to buy it from you,” said Duan Feng. “I have always gotten whatever I want ever since I was a young boy, and there is nothing that I can’t get my hands on! You can ask Manager Wang if you do not believe me.” He laughed bitterly.

Manager Wang trimmed his sails to the wind and said, “Young Master Duan is right. Indeed, he has been granted all his requests all this while, for there is no one in the entire Ji Province who dares to say no to Young Master Duan. Young Master Chen, since you’re new in town, why don’t the both of you become friends and sell this fly whisk to Young Master Duan?”

“In your dreams!” Shen Tiangang answered furiously.

“Hey! Since you’re interested in buying it, let’s discuss the price first. Name me a price, and I’ll consider selling it!”

Chen Hao knew that Duan Feng was up to no good. This was like the real-life version of the Feast at Swan Goose Gate.

Therefore, Chen Hao knew exactly what he needed to do next.

“Very well! Based on my past tendencies, I’m sure that you won’t be satisfied with my offer, so much so that you will think of it as an insult. How about this? Since all of you are so straightforward, I will buy it ten times more than the initial price!”

As soon as he finished talking, Duan Feng slowly took out a fresh ten-dollar bill from his pocket before placing it on the table.

With a cheeky expression on his face, Duan Feng slid the note toward Chen Hao.

Manager Wang, who had been standing at the side, could not help but laugh.

Hehe, Young Master Duan always had this kind of attitude. This is not the first time I’ve seen him pull off such a trick, Manager Wang thought.

Young Master Duan was a well-known young master in the Ji Province. Who would dare to provoke him?

Previously, a wealthy businessman from out-of-town bid 50 million to win over a vintage vase. However, Young Master Duan had his eyes on it too.

Hence, Young Master Duan played the exact same trick by inviting him to lunch and offering 50 cents for the vase.

The businessman was not willing to make the deal with him, so Young Master Duan took his and his family’s lives.

This is Young Master Duan, the devil of Ji Province!

Manager Wang thought to himself.

Shen Tiangang’s eyes turned red with anger.

Manager Wang pitied them, so he acted like a peacemaker and said, “I would advise you to accept the offer. Young Master Duan has offered ten times the price!”

Young Master Duan lighted his cigar. “Leave the fly whisk with me, or else all of you shall die!”

He said it so naturally, as if he was simply deciding when to eat and sleep.
