Life After Prison

Chapter 846
“Hehe, isn’t he afraid of offending Mister Marshall? Mister Marshall is a high-level alchemist of the first rank. Only when this
spiritual herb reaches Mister Marshall’s hands can it unleash its tenfold or hundredfold value.”
An old man chuckled indifferently without a care in the world.
“Sixty million!”
Upon hearing the discussions around him, a hint of pride appeared on Mister Marshall’s face as he once again increased the bid
by one million.
“Eighty million!”
Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Severin directly added another twenty million.
The other party could not hold back any longer. After glancing at Severin, he coldly smiled and said,” Hehe, young man, it seems
like you’re quite wealthy. Alright, let’s compare. I bid a billion!”
Seeing the provocative look on the other party’s face, Severin’s expression became slightly strange. Fighting me in terms of
money? Can he outbid me? Do you think that I’m afraid of you?
He nodded and said, “Heh. Sure, it seems that you’re also interested in this spiritual herb. Unfortunately, I’m determined to obtain
it as well.”
At this point, Severin paused for a moment before continuing, “Since that’s the case, I bid two billion!”
“What!”
Many people could not help but exclaim upon hearing Severin’s bid. After all, the increase was too staggering, directly adding
one billion to the price.
“Alright, I bid three billion!”
Mister Marshall, feeling as if he had been slapped in the face, gritted his teeth and once again added another billion.
“Four billion!” severin shouted again..

Mister Marshall’s mouth twitched slightly, and he said to Severin, “Kid, have you thought this through? This is just a spiritual herb.
4 billion is already exceeding its original value. Are you planning to break. through your cultivation using this spiritual herb?”
At this point, Mister Marshall explained further, “Only when this spiritual herb is in my hands can it exert its greatest effect
because I can refine it into a pill and make it unleash its rightful power. By then, its value will double.”
Severin smiled wryly and apologized. “Mister Marshall, I understand the reasoning behind what you said. However, as I
mentioned earlier, I am determined to obtain it.”
“Wow, then I bid five billion!”
Mister Marshall gritted his teeth and shouted a high price of five billion. This price had completely exceeded the original value of
the spiritual herb. He believed that Severin would give up.
Although he did not understand why this young man had a grudge against him, as an alchemist, he had a considerable amount
of money. He could just spend a bit more. As long as he could refine this spiritual herb into a pill, he would make his money
back.
If it could be refined into a pill, even ten billion would not be a problem as long as the quality was good.
Of course, the reason the previous high-grade pill only sold for seven billion at the auction was because its original quality was
not that good, which increased the chances of failure when attempting al
breakthrough in cultivation.
However, with a pill of good quality, there would be fewer impurities during the breakthrough, and the probability of success
would be much higher.
“Six billion!”
After contemplating for a moment, Severin said, “Mister Marshall, if you want to bid higher, I’ll give it to you. After all, this price is
already quite high.”
Mister Marshall was completely speechless and gave a cold smile in the end, saying, “Hehe, kid, are you intentionally trying to
make me spend more? I’m sorry, I don’t want it anymore. Take it, six billion, you’re at a loss!”
