The four of them each had different thoughts, but they were anxious for the same item.

Bai Feng and Gu Lian kept bidding. Other than the two of them, Wan Shu, who was bidding online, also seemed to like this diamond especially. The three of them chased after each other, not giving in to anyone.

Mo Yu looked at Gu Lian’s actions and only felt her heart ache. Although she knew that Gu Lian, as an important figure in the entire text, did not lack money, as the number reported by the auctioneer kept increasing, Mo Yu could not help but start to calculate, if she used the money to buy gold, how much food or clothes could she buy? Even that diamond became an eyesore.

Although it would give her a lot of face for Gu Lian to spend so much money on her, her heart still ached when she thought about how expensive such a small stone was!

Mo Xue was completely different from Mo Yu. She had never experienced the days of food shortage and water scarcity in the apocalypse, nor did she understand the prices in the market.

In this novel, she had lived a life of being pampered, so as long as it was something she liked, she had to get it. Mo Xue looked at Gu Lian, who was still increasing the price, and could not help but feel anxious.

However, when she thought of how that mysterious person had said that she would eventually obtain this diamond for the price of 99,999,000, and then looked at Bai Feng, who was still increasing the price, Mo Xue was anxious and a little proud.

She would be the final winner. Who was Mo Xue?

Bai Feng noticed that Mo Xue was restless. He held Mo Xue’s hand and squeezed it comfortingly. “It’s fine, Xiao Xue. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely get this diamond for you.”

When the price of the diamond reached 30 million, Mr. Wan Shu withdrew from the dispute, leaving only Gu Lian and Bai Feng still competing.

Bai Feng’s expression was also a little ugly. He had indeed had a lot of savings over the years, but 30 million was not a small sum after all. It could be considered one-fifth of his total assets. However, to Gu Lian, this bit of money was not even enough for the profits of one of his projects. If this continued, he might lose more than half of his assets.

The bullet screen was also restless at this moment. Llife’s platform was meant to let ordinary people see the lives of the wealthy. Now, there were many people watching this auction.

When the price of a diamond at auction became a goal that they might not be able to achieve even if they worked hard for their entire lives, many people had already begun to sigh at the unimaginable joy of the rich.

However, most people were the same as Mo Yu. They thought about how many families they could support if this money was converted into food.

The bid increased by another two million. Bai Feng finally could not sit still anymore. Just as he was about to turn around and discuss with Gu Lian, Mo Yu rushed to speak before him. “That’s enough, Gu Lian. Don’t increase the price anymore.”

When Gu Lian heard this, he put down his hand that wanted to increase the price and looked at Mo Yu in confusion.

Mo Yu looked at him firmly and shook her head. “Gu Lian, this is just a stone. Although it has become very beautiful under the processing of nature, it’s still a dead thing after all. If it doesn’t have the meaning of the so-called ‘witness to love’ given to it by humans, it has no meaning at all. Instead of buying this thing with tens of millions, it’s better to use it for other things.”

Before Gu Lian could speak, Mo Xue, who had been paying attention to their situation, said, “If Sister thinks it’s too expensive and can’t afford it, it’s normal. After all, Sister has never seen anything good before. However, this diamond is really rare, so the price is reasonable.”

Mo Yu turned to look at Mo Xue and asked something unrelated to diamonds, “Do you know how much a catty of food costs?”

Without waiting for Mo Xue to answer, Mo Yu continued, “The cheapest rice is four yuan a catty, cabbages are two cents a catty, beef is twenty-five yuan a catty, and eggs are seven yuan a catty. This is the price of food for the past week.”

“I don’t deny that I haven’t seen anything good. Before I was found by the Mo Family, I lived in the countryside. Naturally, I haven’t seen as many luxury goods as you pampered young masters and young ladies. But you have to know that in this world, there are only a few people who were born with a silver spoon in their mouths. Most people won’t be able to earn the money for this diamond in their entire lives.”

Mo Yu no longer looked at Mo Xue. Instead, she looked at the live-stream camera. Her eyes were dark and bright, as if they had some kind of magic that made people unconsciously sink..
