Chapter 812: Jiang Ran Has Become a Hot Commodity?
At times like this, it all came down to temperament.
Money gave people confidence and backbone.
That was hard to fake.
This Hua Country man in his twenties sized Jiang Ran up, and no matter how he looked at it, Jiang Ran seemed like a broke loser, an ordinary person who had nothing to do with wealth.
But regardless of whether Jiang Ran was rich or not, since the other party had offered five million, he had to put money on the table too!
Even if Jiang Ran was wealthy, he still had to pay! There was a very real chance that the five million would cost him the opportunity to win Jiang Ran over, after all, who would turn down more money?
"I'll offer seven million!"
The Hua Country man in his twenties declared.
The Hua Country man in his thirties shot him a cold glare.
"I'll offer ten million!!!"
Hearing the ten million bid, Jiang Ran was instantly stunned.
Oh my god, these people were seriously loaded, casually throwing around ten million like it was nothing.
No wonder they could just hop into a first-class cabin that cost over a hundred thousand.
The Hua Country man in his twenties lifted his chin. "Think you're the only one with money? Who's scared of who? I'll offer twenty million!"
The number jumped straight to twenty million, and Jiang Ran's eyes widened even more. The ten million earlier had already blown his mind, because even with that rich woman from the comic tipping him, he'd never had that much money.
Truly, the rich got richer and the poor got poorer.
Comparing people only pissed you off. Those two rich guys in front of him had probably never eaten a ten-dollar set meal from a Sha County diner to survive.
Still, Jiang Ran didn't agree. He had to maximize his profits.
Money was always better the more you had.
Next, he thought the bids would climb higher and higher until they reached some unreachable peak, but he was wrong.
Right after the twenty million bid, the Hua Country man in his thirties suddenly smiled, and then the Hua Country man in his twenties smiled too. Both of them laughed together.
As they laughed, the Hua Country man in his thirties said, "Instead of fighting over this, why don't we work together?"
The Hua Country man in his twenties nodded. "Fine, once we survive this, we can pick up where we left off with the cursing."
Apparently, these two had temporarily joined forces, setting aside their earlier verbal sparring.
This was something Jiang Ran never saw coming.
Wait, were you two a married couple?! Fighting in bed but making up in bed. Was this what rich people meant by putting interests first and personal grudges aside?
He let out a sigh. Too bad his twenty million had slipped away.
Just then, the Hua Country middle-aged man from earlier raised his hand and said, "Since those two teamed up, why don't we team up too!"
Jiang Ran sighed. He had no choice, he could only team up with this guy.
He was just about to nod when suddenly-
The two white men moved.
They lunged at the Hua Country middle-aged man like hungry tigers.
The Hua Country middle-aged man couldn't dodge in time and was tackled to the ground.
Terrified, he raised his hand and screamed, "Help! Help!!!"
Jiang Ran wanted to step in, after all, this guy was practically his partner.
But could he take on those two white men alone?
So he looked over at the Hua Country man in his thirties and the Hua Country man in his twenties, who were standing there empty-handed, watching the show.
"Hey! You two, come help me out! We're all Hua Country people here, let's take these two foreigners down first!"
Who would've thought that after Jiang Ran said this, the two of them remained completely unmoved, still looking like they were waiting for a show.
The corner of his left eye twitched. Jiang Ran was speechless inside.
He glanced around himself. There was nothing he could use as a weapon. No choice, he let out a roar and charged at the two white men.
One of the white men heard the roar behind him and turned to deal with Jiang Ran.
And just like that, the situation became a one-on-one fight.
But even one-on-one, Jiang Ran and the Hua Country middle-aged man were still in a losing battle.
First, the Hua Country middle-aged man obviously didn't exercise much in his daily life, his body was drained by alcohol and women. He was completely overwhelmed by the white man on top of him.
As for Jiang Ran and the other white man...
Maybe it was because these Western white guys ate more meat, eggs, and dairy. The white man Jiang Ran was dealing with might not have been six feet one, but he was at least six feet tall, with a frame a full size bigger than Jiang Ran's.
Jiang Ran felt like the white man's fists were cannonballs. Every time they hit his chest or other parts of his body, the pain was excruciating, making it hard to breathe.
But Jiang Ran had no choice. He had to fight back.
Of course, he regretted it too.
He should've just let this guy who was about to be his teammate die first.
Stay low and play it safe.
Now look, he couldn't even be sneaky anymore.
He really couldn't win, so he took a few steps back, retreating to the farthest corner and putting distance between himself and the white man.
Of course, the white man didn't rush in recklessly either. He stayed alert, watching Jiang Ran and the surroundings.
At this point, the first-class cabin was filled with screams, all from the Hua Country middle-aged man. He was pinned to the ground, getting pummeled by the white man. Each punch came with a spray of bright red blood.
Completely unable to fight back, he curled into a ball, shouting nonstop.
"Ahhhh! Xiao Wu! Come save me! Hurry up and come! Do you hear me!!!!"
Who was Xiao Wu? Hearing that name, Jiang Ran glanced at the others in first class with confusion, but he didn't see anyone move. And as far as he knew, even though he didn't know everyone's names in first class, there probably wasn't anyone named Xiao Wu.
The Hua Country middle-aged man also screamed at Jiang Ran. "Ah! Hurry up and save me! Hey, you over there! Hey, teammate! If you save me, I'll give you tens of millions as a reward!!!! If you don't save me, you won't get a single cent!!!!"
Tens of millions. Hell, even ten million would've made his heart race, and it did, beating like crazy. But he really didn't have the strength.
And soon, the Hua Country middle-aged man, curled up on the ground, went completely still, lying there like a dead dog. This guy, probably a boss from some big company, died right there in the first-class cabin of the plane.
He probably never imagined that he wouldn't die between a woman's legs, wouldn't die at a drinking table, wouldn't die any other way, but instead would die such a ridiculous death by being beaten to death.
And all of this in the first-class cabin of a plane, a seat only the rich could afford.
After the Hua Country middle-aged man died.
Currently in first class: Jiang Ran, the Long-Legged Blonde Girl.
The Hua Country man in his thirties, the Hua Country man in his twenties.
The two white men.
And one white young man still sleeping.
That made seven people total.
Jiang Ran was now injured, so he was tense about the current situation.
He had no idea what would happen next. Would those two Hua Country guys like him end up fighting those two white men?
