The Strongest Mad Son-in-law

"280 million!"

"300 million!"

When the 300 million bid was called out, the scene fell into temporary silence.

This was not only because the 300 million price had exceeded many people's expectations, but also because it was one of the Seven Small Families, the Cao Family, that had shouted the bid.

The Seven Small Families: Jin, Xu, Wei, Cao, Zhang, He, Han.

The Cao Family ranked fourth, neither at the top nor the bottom.

But to the people in the hall, the Cao Family was extremely powerful.

Room 008.

Sitting at the foremost seat was the Cao Family's Young Master, Cao An.

After all, his father was the Clan Leader, and he had managed to retain his position as the first heir, albeit temporarily, against much opposition.

But he had to redeem himself and show his worth to the family.

So, he had to win this plot of land at auction.

Xu Hao flipped through the data given to him by Chen Hai, and laughed, "Cao An's old man is quite capable indeed, to think that despite the huge embarrassment Cao An caused, he's still able to handle big tasks."

Liu Ruyan laughed and said, "I saw the beginning of that video too; it was literally hilarious, but the rest was too eye-searing for me to continue watching."

Xu Hao laughed, "Indeed, it was a bit eye-searing, which is why I didn't record a video. Uncle Chen told me that Cao An probably wants to redeem himself, well, I won't let him succeed!"

"Absolutely right! How dare Cao An treat Little Sister Suyi that way, we can't let him get away with it!" Liu Ruyan nodded in agreement.

The two maids looked at Xu Hao and Liu Ruyan as if they were looking at fools—that was the Cao Family's Young Master they were talking about, and yet they dismissed him so casually!

Even the Young Master Wu wouldn't be so bold, right?

Xu Hao hadn't hired anyone, and as for letting these two maids shout out bids, they probably wouldn't want to, so he took the stage himself.

"My bid is 500 million!"

Everyone in the entire venue was instantly stunned.

The 300 million bid from the Cao Family was already hard for many to swallow, let alone 500 million!

This was an extremely high bid.

Xu Hao laughed, "I'm not short of money; spending money is all about making my wife happy."

Many rolled their eyes at this—was this guy looking for fun?

Who would be foolish enough to drop 500 million Huaya Currency to make a woman happy?

Even if someone was the richest person in the world, they wouldn't do such a thing, right?

But Liu Ruyan was incredibly moved. She knew Xu Hao didn't lack money, and earning money seemed not to hold much significance to him, but for her sake, he was very willing to spend.

At this moment, Cao An instantly recognized Xu Hao's voice.

His gaze turned extremely icy, and he tightly gripped the blue and white porcelain teacup in his hands, coldly saying, "Uncle, how much money did the family give in total?"

"550 million," a middle-aged man immediately answered. "The family's expectation is 500 million. If it goes over, we should try not to bid anymore."

Cao An was furious, and he coldly huffed, "Bid 600 million for me!"

"Young Master An, we don't have enough money!" his uncle said urgently.

He knew who was bidding, but he was very aware that exceeding the set limit meant that, even if they won the plot of land, there would be a lot of adverse commentary towards Cao An within the family.

Cao An's voice turned cold, "Deduct the insufficient amount from my account! I still have 50 million."

"600 million!"

The elder on the stage immediately said with a somewhat trembling voice, "600 million! The Cao Family bid 600 million! Does anyone offer more?"

Xu Hao immediately laughed, "700 million!"

All eyes turned to the Cao Family's room.

However, after a full thirty seconds, there was still no response.

"Thump!"

Cao An slid off his chair powerlessly. Clenching his fists tightly, he huffed, "I want to see if you actually have the capability to spend 700 million! And besides, the Sun Family will definitely place a bid."

Right at that moment, a loud voice suddenly rang out, "Hahaha! Cao An, aren't you the Cao Family's Young Master? Isn't the Cao Family very rich? Why stop bidding now?"

"Wei Laosan! I share no common ground with you!" Cao An yelled out angrily.

He knew that the video that had almost ruined him was spread by Wei Laosan.

Wei Laosan, however, was undeterred and continued laughing, "Hahaha! I'm just here for the spectacle. If the Cao Family lacks the strength, why bother getting involved with this kind of auction?"

Nearly everyone nodded along, aware that the Sun Family had long since reserved this plot of land. Those bidding were merely hoping that if the Sun Family changed their minds, they could take advantage.

At this moment, from Room 004, a voice said, "My Sun Family bids 800 million."

Everyone gasped in surprise; it was true to the Sun Family's style to start with an 800 million bid straight away!

Many business owners weren't even worth that much.

One of the maids spoke sarcastically, "The Sun Family has made a bid of 800 million now, I wonder if a certain someone still dares to bid."

Xu Hao sneered, "If you're eager to wash my feet, just say the word. The Sun Family only raised by 100 million at a time; it seems they're not so remarkable after all!"

"Hmph! Ignorant outsider! The Sun Family controls one-third of Huadu's commercial lifelines. They possess accumulated assets over 500 billion, with even more assets unknown to the public, such a trifling amount of 800 million might not even be worthy of their attention!"

Xu Hao didn't bother to argue with them. The Sun Family had significant wealth and assets; what did it matter if they were worth over a trillion?

What truly mattered was how much liquid cash they could actually make use of.

He smiled and said, "Liu Corporation bids one billion!"
