Chapter 18: Centennial Wild Ginseng
"You don't need to know this, you just have to tell me, can you auction it?" the old voice sounded again from under the black clothes.
"My lord, I have to discuss this matter with the boss, why don't you go to the back room and rest for a while. Manager Liang said respectfully.
"No need, I'll just wait here. Jiang Ning waved his hand and said.
Seeing this, Manager Liang did not force it, and immediately turned his head and ran inside, for fear of delay.
The two security guards cowered and hid aside and didn't dare to move, for fear of making Jiang Ning unhappy, after all, Manager Liang respected the people in front of him so much, not to mention the two security guards who guarded the door.
In about two or three minutes, Manager Liang hurried over, followed by a woman with a graceful figure.
"This lord, this is the boss of the auction we organized this time, her name is Li Hong, and everyone calls her Sister Hong. Manager Liang pointed to the woman next to him and introduced.
Jiang Ning examined this woman and found that she also had a fierce temperament, and it seemed that she was also a martial artist.
"Hmm. Jiang Ning nodded and continued: "Can you auction it, give me an answer." ”
"My lord, don't worry, according to Manager Liang, you are a congenital powerhouse. Li Hong twisted her bewitching posture and circled around Jiang Ning.
"What? Are you questioning my strength?"
Jiang Ning could feel that this Li Hong's strength was far above Nie Yuan, Jiang Ning guessed that her strength had definitely reached the dark power, if she really wanted to take action in person and test Jiang Ning's strength, she might be exposed.
Jiang Ning snorted coldly, and then raised his spiritual power to the extreme, and burst out violently, causing a burst of impact.
Li Hong's face showed a surprised expression, and then she immediately smiled and said to Jiang Ning: "My lord, don't be angry, I didn't mean that." ”
"A shot by an innate powerhouse can't be measured by price, are you sure you want to use it for auction?" Li Hong asked.
"Sure. Jiang Ning nodded, then took out a small cloth bag from his pocket and handed it to Li Hong: "This is a token, as long as you pinch and pop the beads inside, I will naturally arrive as soon as possible." ”
Li Hong took the cloth bag, and then stretched out his hand respectfully: "I'll go and arrange it for the adults, please go with me to the VIP room and wait." ”
Jiang Ning nodded and followed Li Hong inside, and after a while, a waitress took Jiang Ning to the VIP waiting room.
It is said to be a waiting room, but it is actually a VIP auction room, located on the second floor of the auction room, where you can see the whole picture of the auction room.
"Sir, if there is anything you can do just by ringing the call bell. The waitress said, pointing to the button next to the couch.
"Hmm. ”
Jiang Ning nodded, and after the waitress gave Jiang Ning a little more introduction, she closed the door and left.
At this time, there was less than half an hour before the auction began, and Jiang Ning sat in the VIP room, his eyes scanning the entire auction hall.
Suddenly, Jiang Ning saw a familiar figure.
"Lin Yan?"
Jiang Ning frowned, she came here to participate in the auction?
Lin Yan didn't stop on the first floor, ran directly to the second floor, and walked into the No. 3 VIP room located in the left front of Jiangning.
"It seems that this auction is not easy. ”
Jiang Ning thought to himself, even the Lin family, one of the three major families, came, which made Jiang Ning look forward to what strange things would be in this auction.
And Jiang Ning couldn't help but sigh that to be able to organize such a heavyweight auction, Li Hong, a woman, is definitely not simple.
While waiting, the waitress brought some small snacks and fruit plates.
Suddenly, the lights on the stage dimmed, and the host walked up with the microphone in hand.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's a great honor to take time out of your busy schedule......
The host talked nonsense on the stage, and the auction officially began.
In the middle of the stage there is a lifting device, where the auctioned items will also appear.
"I'm sure you're looking forward to this auction, so let's put together the first lot. ”
Suddenly, the spotlights gathered together, and a dark green jade bracelet appeared in front of everyone.
The host took the microphone to introduce the auction item to everyone, the reserve price is 500,000 yuan, and the price increase is at least 10,000 yuan at a time.
This kind of appetizer is an appetizer, but there are many bidders, and the price of this jade bracelet has soared all the way to 1.2 million, and finally a middle-aged rich woman won it at a price of 1.28 million.
Most of the next few things were jewelry, and Jiang Ning didn't have much interest in this thing, and he was about to yawn when he saw it.
When the fifth piece was auctioned, Jiang Ning finally got in good spirits.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a century-old wild ginseng, which is said to grow in Changbai Mountain, and can prolong life with this medicine, with a starting price of 1 million. ”
As the host's voice fell, the people below raised their cards one after another, and the price soared all the way to 2.8 million.
But the price is still rising, but there are many fewer people holding cards.
Jiang Ning saw that there were fewer and fewer people holding cards, so he took out his hand and pressed the bid button beside him.
"The guest in box 6 bid 2.95 million, is there a higher ......," the host pointed to the box where Jiang Ning was and said.
The price of 2.92 million is already relatively high, and those who have made bids before sitting on the first floor have not raised their cards again.
Seeing this, the host shouted again: "Is there anything higher?" 2.95 million first-time ......."
Just when Jiang Ning felt that no one would bid again, the price displayed on the big screen suddenly rose again.
"3 million, the distinguished guest in box 3 bid 3 million. The host pointed to box No. 3, which was the box where Lin Yan was.
Jiang Ning frowned, and then pressed the price increase button again.
"Box 6 Distinguished Guest Bid 3.05 Million ......"
As soon as the host's voice fell, the price on the big screen became 3.1 million again.
"Grass, this loser!" Jiang Ning was a little speechless, this thing was priced up by his own people, and he couldn't wait to slap Lin Yan's girl at this time.
But this thing Jiangning is bound to get, and in the end, when Jiangning paid 3.85 million, Lin Yan never bid again.
"Congratulations to the distinguished guests in Box No. 6 for winning the 100-year-old wild ginseng ...... at a price of 3.85 million"
After getting the wild ginseng, Jiang Ning's goal was also achieved, but he couldn't leave now, and he needed to wait until the auction of the things he sent for himself was over.
The auction continues, and the further back you go, the rarer and more varied it becomes.
There are out-of-print watches, precious calligraphy and paintings, and some ancient porcelain, and the price of these things is up to 80 million.
While Jiang Ning was watching, he was also waiting for his own things.
Finally, under the light of the spotlight, the small cloth bag that Jiang Ning handed over to Li Hong appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
"What is this? How does it feel ragged. ”
"yes, a rag bag was put up for auction. ”
There was a commotion in the audience, and everyone pointed to the small cloth bag and began to discuss.
