Chapter 152: A charity auction with ulterior motives
Although Li Yuanming made a very evil appearance, the few delicate maids around him did not leave him.
Xiao Qian instead snuggled her plump, or somewhat sexy body, into Li Yuanming's body.
This kind of day of hugging left and right is a special enjoyment that a man will feel, originally wanted to escape Shen Wan'er in the base, but he didn't expect that there would be such a good thing.
The bodyguards stood respectfully on the edge of the pool, and several delicate beauties, next to themselves, lay in the pool.
If it weren't for the cemetery, where you could only see the bright lights of day, outside, it would be warm in the gentle sun.
Li Yuanming recalled that Sinclair was almost killed by Harrison at the bottom of this swimming pool, and he was extremely scary to think about the terrible mechanism, and the tens of thousands of volts of high-voltage electricity below.
After soaking in the water for a while, still weak, Li Yuanming got up from the pool. The maids quickly wiped the water droplets off his body for him, and he lay down on the beach chair limply, picking up the drink on the table and inhaling it shallowly.
Several maids, like noble ladies, sat on beach chairs not far from Li Yuanming, which became an extremely charming scenery.
After calming down, Li Yuanming's mind began to ponder the affairs of the Shen family, and Li Xinzhu's achievements were stolen. It is said that this should be a big deal in the base, and from what Li Xinzhu revealed, she didn't care about data theft at all.
Judging from Lin Yueqiu's side, Li Yuanming had a hunch that the Shen family would have something happen sooner or later, although he had always felt that it was shameful for the Shen family to use such a disgraceful method to obtain Li Xinzhu's results.
However, once he thought that once the products produced by the Shen family in the overseas base were on the market, it was likely to make the drug users suffer from Sinclair's pain, but he couldn't help but worry about the Shen family.
After sitting on the edge of the pool for a while, Li Yuanming felt a little bored, so he got up and went back to the house, and the bodyguard hurriedly held the changed clothes for him and followed him closely.
Lying on the bed and turning on the TV in the bedroom, Li Yuanming felt like he had entered the pension mode, like now, either soaking in the pool, or lying on the bed, watching some TV news, what people in their nineties can do, it's simply boring.
Flipping through the Jiangcheng news at will and staying in the base is the only channel that can be regarded as the only way to learn about the outside world.
Jiangcheng is developing rapidly, the old city is being rebuilt, and the whole city is moving towards a park-like direction. Looking at those green spaces, looking at the high-rise buildings that are rising near his home, Li Yuanming is very excited.
This is my hometown, and if I hadn't seen it on TV, I really didn't think that it was quietly changing.
Li Yuanming really wanted to see the relevant news of the Shen family on TV, and when the TV screen switched, it was a charity auction scene.
The presenter's impassioned voice came from inside the TV.
"Jiangcheng's highest charity auction of the year, Jiangcheng's highest charity auction of the year. In this auction, there will be treasures in the industry, so please don't miss the opportunity to participate in the auction. ”
From the crowd, Li Yuanming saw Shen Xiaolin, who was rich and wealthy, and Li Xinzhu's mother was also surrounded by stars, and proudly stepped into the auction site.
"Today's first collection, a sky-high necklace set with a diamond star, symbolizes wealth and auspiciousness, and is listed as the most admired heirloom collection by women this year. ”
The auctioneer said like a river, Li Yuanming suddenly became interested, his eyes stared at Li Xinzhu's mother who appeared on the scene, the old lady has always been that kind of domineering. He wanted to see how bold the old lady could be.
The collection is magnified on the big screen in the auction room, and it is crystal clear and radiant.
Li Yuanming saw several noble ladies beside Mrs. Li, put his mouth close to Mrs. Li's ear, and whispered something. Looking at Mrs. Li's expression, Li Yuanming didn't need to hear it, but he could feel that Li Xinzhu's mother had become interested in the necklace.
Needless to say, those ladies were suggesting to Mrs. Li that she take a picture of the necklace as Li Xinzhu's dowry.
Shen Xiaolin sat silently in the front row, he didn't communicate with others, and beside him, there were several bodyguards of the Shen family standing respectfully.
The auction has begun, and Li Xinzhu's mother and another person who came to participate in the auction continue to increase the price. The auctioneer said that the sky-high price, but the scene started from the reserve price of five or two hundred thousand.
Li Xinzhu's mother made the first bid, and she raised a card of three million, directly pulling the price to several times the reserve price.
Seeing that some people are competing for a price increase, the auctioneer spares no effort to boast about the appreciation space of the diamond, the exquisite workmanship of the necklace, and the aesthetic value and collection value.
In the end, Li Xinzhu's mother got the necklace at a price of 30 million. He became the first philanthropist to successfully auction the collection at this auction.
Perhaps the reason for the first auction of the collection was that the auctioneer invited Li Xinzhu's mother to the stage, and her sisters, the noble ladies who came with her, applauded thunderously.
"May I ask Chairman Li, just now, we have seen that you are determined to get this collection, and you have been suppressing your opponents with a high price increase, you tell everyone, this collection, for the Li family, or you personally, what is the special significance. ”
Li Yuanming listened to the host's flattering words, and then saw Li Xinzhu's mother, who was condescending and domineering, and felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
"Over the years, we have achieved fruitful results in the research of new technologies and created a lot of brand value. Today, we are participating in this auction to show that we, Lai's Group, are grateful and strive to give back to the society through this charity event. ”
The audience burst into more enthusiastic applause and praised Lai's charitable act.
The host has already made the action of inviting Li Xinzhu's mother to leave the scene, but when she hasn't said the words of sending off guests, Li Xinzhu's mother is very excited.
"In addition, I will do my best to win this chain, that is because on the day when my daughter Xinzhu and Li Yuanming, who she has been infatuated with all her life, get married, I will personally wear this necklace around my daughter's neck, and I will use this chain to bless her and become the happiest bride in the world. ”
Li Yuanming saw Shen Xiaolin's face stretched out, and Li Xinzhu's mother at this time actually swept over Shen Xiaolin's body sitting in the front row with a victor's eye.
The charity auction was originally not necessary to spread it on TV media with such fanfare, but now, after Li Xinzhu's mother announced it like this, it is more well-known than having an engagement banquet.
Tens of millions of necklaces, the upcoming wedding banquet of a wealthy family, this is obviously a blatant challenge launched by the Li family to the Shen family. Li Yuanming didn't dare to imagine what Shen Wan'er would be excited to be if she saw that scene at this time.
