Chapter 66 - Battle Begins.
After this incident, every guest sat down in the chair and the event started. In the center of the star gazing Pavillion, a circular stage was set up. At this moment a lady wearing a black gown stood on the stage holding a mic. She was an exquisite woman as if a painting created by the heavens but she still paled in front of Feng Yun and Yang Dao. Behind the woman, five elegant wooden stands were placed. they were all covered with a silk cloth at this moment.
She spoke in a mellow voice, "Good evening, ladies and gentleman, I am Stacy Bloom, your host, and auctioneer for the night. We gather here tonight to raise funds to help people suffering in the remote regions of our nation. The person behind tonight's event is Mr. Lucius Mcdouglas, please give him warm applause." following her words the applause did ring out but it was anything but warm.
Stacy Bloom was not aware of the conflict at the entrance. She quickly reacted to salvage the situation. She was a professional host and auctioneer in one of the biggest auctions in Jade City. The auction house was also a subsidiary of Feng Yun. She quickly followed through, "Tonight we have five articles straight from Mr. McDouglas's collection. They are all worth your time. I hope you all donate to your heart's content. Without wasting any time, introducing you to the first item of the night."
She raised the cover from the first stand and said, "Ladies, and Gentleman, I give you the Thorns Of Ecstacy."
Below the covers laid a Tiara, Stacy introduced the tiara to everyone, "This tiara is made from Meteor Gold, weighing only 100 gms. This exquisite piece of jewelry is one of the most expensive headgear. The World Jewelry certifies that this piece was favored by The first princess of the Ancient Suryu Empire. This piece was discovered by archeologists during the exploration expedition conducted in the underground ruins of..."
Yang Dao had no interest in such events to him charity did not need any such shows. Just providing people with what they need is good enough. He just focused on the food in front of him and thinking about how to take down Lucius Mcdouglas.
Suddenly it clicked to him. If Lucius was such a generous philanthropist, then how come his eyes were lustful. His first flaw was his character. Yang Dao planned to find the chinks in his now slightly dim silver armor. What he wanted to do was to ruin Lucius's reputation, then make his money useless, then his so-called pride.
Tonight his gaze at Feng Yun was a blasphemous act in Yang Dao's eyes. He respected Feng Yun for her achievements and treated her like a family member. How dare this dog man look at her with lust? He was bound to be ruined. Feng Yun could have done that to him with just a phone call but what Yang Dao had in mind was much crueler.
He took out his phone as he ate his food. Feng Yun would bid eventually. Yang Dao shook his head to the situation. They are all wealthy people yet they only take the money for the winner? Bull shit. His mobile phone now had a remote uplink of his computer. This was something he designed himself the first moment he was using the system.
With the constant effort of the two workers and the professor, the system now looked like a basic computer. Yang Dao was now searching the net for Lucius Mcdouglas's details. His actions were all noticed by Feng Yun but the lady let him do what he wanted.
Yang Dao skimmed through and found out that other than Charity and fundraising, Lucius Mcdouglas had two major businesses, one was a pharmaceutical company and the other was an entertainment production house. The man had many other businesses as well. Such as schools and hospitals all over the nation and that was all top grade. Normal people could not get treated or educated in the hospital and the schools, respectively.
Yang Dao smirked when he saw this. There was a lot of information on the net. By the time he was done the auction ended. The boy glanced at Feng Yun and said, "Sister Yun, shall we go. I have to prepare for a battle."
Feng Yun nodded with a smile, after greeting a few people they boarded their BEHEMOTH car and left.
Someone in the crowd asked, "How much did President Feng Yun donate?" the question was asked to the Host, Stacy Bloom. The lady in the black dress replied with a smile, "20 million carat coins." this amount came from the third item of the auction but after the auction, she returned it.
This price was too high for the item worth only 11 million. The other people shook their heads. This auction was different. Instead of crying the price, it will all be recorded by the auctioneer according to the basic Increment mentioned at the beginning. So the people did not know how much Feng Yun donated.
...
On the way back to the sapphire lake residency, Feng Yun asked, "Young Master, who are you going to deal with him?"
Yang Dao replied, "First gather the info regarding his businesses. Then look for the chinks in his armor. Slowly expose him, making him lose image and money both. Then let him kneel for forgiveness. Simple and concise."
Feng Yung nodded with a smile and she asked, "How will you achieve that?"
Yang Dao replied, "Don't worry, he gave me a month, I will give home a week. Within a week I will have him on his knee. As for how? I will rely on my hands and brain."
Yang Dao was going to hack into Lucius's life and take him down from inside out. The boy had this much capability. Otherwise, how will he win a trip to Crypto nation in his junior high school?
The battle has begun, it was going to be a nightmare for Lucius McDouglas. A nightmare that will scar him forever.
