Chapter 1680 Start at $100
Nobody replied Lee Seongbong and he justughed self-deprecatingly without saying anymore. He
was led into the auction hall by the mercenary soldiers.
He noticed that many people had arrived already.
He knew most of the people here since they were all famous in Korea. Of course, he also spotted
Jiang Ning.
Compared to Jiang Ning, all these supposed big shots didn''t seem like much anymore.
He looked away and didn''t meet Jiang Ning''s eye as he found a ce to sit down. The four
bodyguards stood behind him and surrounded him.
Some people wanted toe over to say hello to Lee Seongbong, but the position of his
bodyguards made him difficult to approach.

Everyone knew that the Lee family was doing badly recently, but they didn''t expect Lee Seongbong
to still be in the mood to attend an auction.
"I can''t believe that Lee Seongbong still looks well and healthy. Lee Group has lost so much money
recently and he''s still in the mood to attend an auction?”
"Didn''t you hear about how the members who betrayed the Lee family all died? The Lee family is
missing several of its core members! What a terrible loss!”
"Isn''t Lee Group fighting with some Lin Group recently? Where''s that Lin Group from?”
"That guy over there in the front row!"
Several others were whispering among themselves since they had gotten wind of some news.
Lee Group and Lin Group were both at the same venue, so they probably couldn''t be part of this
auction tonight.
Jiang Ning sat right in front and couldn''t be bothered with anyone else. He didn''t look at anyone and
didn''t care about anyway. He just kept his eye on the auctioneer standing on stage.
More people streamed into the hall and everyone who was supposed to be here arrived in less than
ten minutes.
The rule of this estate was that anyone who waste would not be granted entry. Ko San would not
wait for anyone at all.
DOONG!
The auctioneer struck a gong by the side and the entire hall fell silent.
"Ladies and gentlemen," began the auctioneer with a smile. "It is my honor to help Mr Ko San to
auction off a treasure item of his today!"
"The fact that it''s a treasured item of Mr Ko''s is a guarantee of its value. I''m sure everyone here
knows about that, so I don''t have to borate further."
"Thest few items that were auctioned off sparked off an intense bidding war, so I''m not sure who
will be the final winner of tonight''s item!"
He looked around at the attendees and even his eyes were smiling.
Nobody here was worth less than $1 billion, and about 70% of the richest people in Korea were
here.
"I will not waste everyone''s time and go straight to the star of tonight''s event. Mr Ko is auctioning off
one page of a boxing manual. Please take a look!"
He raised his hand and part of the stage rose from beneath the ground. A tempered ss case was
on it, and a golden page of the boxing manual was kept between twoyers of ss within the
case.
The camera tilted downwards and it was clear that the material of this manual wasn''t ordinary, and
the etches on the page exuded a very special sort of aura.
"This page is of very mysterious origin, and Mr Ko happened to chance upon it a few years ago.
Everyone here is very privileged to be able to see this page
tonight, because it carries a different meaning to each person."
The auctioneer didn''t have much to say about the page because even Ko San didn''t know what this
manual was, so the auctioneer didn''t know anything either.
"And so, tonight''s auction is also very special. Mr Ko says that the starting bid for this item will be
US$100."
He stuck a finger out and smiled brightly. "You didn''t hear me wrongly. The starting bid for this item
is US$100!"
The entire ce went into an uproar upon hearing this.
