Chapter 37 Who Is the Fool?

• “It seems that we have three contending bidders for the first item, and the highest bidder is offering 3 million.” Dicky stood on stage with an ancient clay teapot in his hand. Although it was an authentic artifact, there were too few people bidding for it. Thus, 3 million was the best it could be sold at.
• A few moments later, the first five items were successfully sold, except the third one, which was deemed to be a counterfeit. Finally, the sixth item, which was Evan’s favorite, was called out. After all, he and Master Tyson believed that it was an absolute treasure, so he offered to pay 50 million for it. In fact, there were also many other bidders who had their eyes on that artifact as they could clearly see and appreciate its qualities. Thus, it became the most highly sought after antique by far among the bidders.
• Dicky held the item in his hand and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, I believe everyone here can clearly see the beauty of this artifact, but surprisingly, we have two highest bidders this round. They are Mr. Evan Erikson and Mr. Terry Olsen. Well, to ensure harmony during the auction, we’d like to settle the contention between the two highest bidders by honoring the old tradition. Now, which of you would like to go first?”
