Unlike others, the crown prince wasn't surprised when the auctioneer first announced the starting price. He had his sources and was well prepared. That's why the king has given him one and a half million gold coins to spend today, as he was determined to get the rare purple gem as a gift for the long-lost princess.

Asher was confident he would be winning the bid today.
So, when he heard the person next to him speak out, his soul left his body in an instant.
"Dude! Do you need to start by doubling the original amount?!" The crown prince forgot about the decorum and yelled at his friend. This wasn't just a killer move, this was flexing one's wealth to the fullest!
