Chapter 26 Burgeoning Rose
Emerentius‘ work was even more impressive, for his inanimate work seemed to be coming alive.
In mere ten seconds, the audience could almost witness the process of the rose’s budding state to its blooming state.
It was the work of a master.
Anyone could see that Emerentius‘ artwork would be worth hundreds of millions a hundred years later.
The audience was astonished.
They were taken aback like never before.
Thomas introduced, “This piece of work is named Burgeoning Rose.”
Right as he said that, the rich businessman who successfully bid for Eagle on a Tree jumped to his feet and yelled, “No need for the bids. I’m buying this artwork for twenty million!”
Twenty million? The audience gasped. Price tags really don’t matter to the rich. He didn’t even ask for the starting bid and just straight–up offered twenty million!
Right then, another wealthy businessman stood up. “Thirty million.”
Thirty million!
Everyone’s eyes were as wide as saucers.
The increment was by ten million, and the rest of them would call the businessmen lunatics for
that.
There were actually many billionaires who never bid in the previous round because while Eagle on a Tree was a new piece of work, there was already an older version of it. At most, it would only be worth eight million.
Furthermore, the collection value of the newer version would not be as much as the older version. It was the same concept as how misprinted stamps were far more valuable than normal
stamps.
However, Burgeoning Rose was a different matter. It was a work that stunned all, and twenty million was merely its base value.
The business owners were all lifting their hands, and in the blink of an eye, the price was at eighty million. In fact, it seemed that it was about to surpass a hundred million.
The ordinary collectors could only stare at the scene with their jaws hanging. They could not intervene at all.

Right then, Thomas said, “This artwork is only for display. It is not one of the auction items of today.”
“Ms. Lynch, South River King informed me that this Burgeoning Rose is a work Mr. Emerentius made for you. Please accept this,” Thomas said politely.
With that, he presented the artwork to Yelena.
