Chapter 8: The Party Begins
Within a few minutes, everyone in attendance was sitting in their own places.
Boom...
As soon as the venue was dark, the lights shone on the stage, and Bai Cheng stood in it and said loudly: "Thank you for coming to the charity party, your donations tonight will be sent directly to the poor area!"
The rich people clasped their fists together: "Bai Lao, we all hope to contribute to the poor mountainous areas!"
"Haha, the old man has thanked you here!"
"Bai Lao is polite. ”
Hearing this, the corners of Zhou Yi's mouth twitched, this group of people is really good at pretending, and politely saying a bunch of favors, typical wall grass.
"Old man, I won't let you go home empty-handed, this fundraising will be in the form of an auction!"
I heard that the rich people were talking about it, and the auction meant that they needed to spend more money, but what Bai Cheng took out his hand must not be ordinary, so getting the treasure can also leave a good impression on Bai Lao, why not?
One of the rich men took the lead and said: "Haha, Bai Lao, let's start quickly, we can't wait!"
Bang bang...
Bai Cheng slapped twice, and a beautiful woman wearing a cheongsam, with a beautiful face and a bewitching figure holding a beautiful red box in her hand, came to him from the backstage: "Today's first auction item, a century-old ginseng from Changbai Mountain, can extend the life of those who take it by two years!"
As soon as this remark came out, it amazed the four, for those who have money and power, none of them are eager to live longer, only to live longer can they greedily enjoy the pleasure of superiority, this thing is exactly what they want!
"The starting price of the hundred-year-old ginseng in Changbai Mountain is two million, and the price increase shall not be less than one million each time!"
Hearing this price, even the rich people in the audience sighed, including Lin Yanran, she pulled the corner of Zhou Yi's clothes and showed doubts, and said in a low voice: "Why is this so expensive?"
Lin Yanran is just a woman, she has never been to a large-scale auction, and in her heart, two million is not a small amount.
"This so-called hundred-year-old ginseng can only increase the lifespan of mortals by one year at most, and it is even less effective for martial artists, so the old man is undoubtedly exaggerating the truth..."
"Isn't that why he was wronged by these people?"
Hearing this, Zhou Yi shook his head lightly: "In the eyes of this group of people, Shou Yuan is what they want the most, and the greedy human power wants to live longer..."
Hearing this, Lin Yanran also agreed, she also hated those scumbags who used power to oppress civilians.
At the same time, a series of cries sounded:
"Three million!"
"Five million!"
"Six million!"
In the luxury private room, Guan Feng crossed Erlang's legs, held a goblet in his right hand, and contained the eighty-two-year-old Lafite, looking at the crowd below and saying disdainfully:
"Do you still want to buy treasure medicine at this price?" it just so happens that grandpa's birthday is approaching recently..."Guan Feng took a sip, and then ordered to the assistant beside him: "Buy this century-old ginseng!"
The assistant replied respectfully: "Yes!"
"Seven million!"
"Nine million!"
When the price reached 9 million, the set was silent, this price has reached the range they can afford, even if they are all billionaires, but once they take out 9 million, it will be difficult for the company under their name to maintain normal operation, and in serious cases, they will definitely not consider this kind of risky way.
"Nine million once!"
"Nine million twice!"
"Nine million three..."
"I'll give 10 million!"
Before the words were finished, a voice interrupted Bai Cheng, hearing the sound of bidding, everyone looked around trying to find the person who was bidding, and finally their eyes focused on a luxurious private room, and they couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh, it was no wonder that the person in the private room could call such a high price.
In the luxurious private room in the Tokai auction hall, the people who can enter are either rich or expensive, except for the family in Kyoto, only the three major families in the Tokai can have this qualification, the former is obviously impossible, then only the latter.
At this time, Lin Yanran was very puzzled, there were still people who spent 10 million to buy a ginseng?
"Fifteen million!" a voice came from beside her.
Faced with Zhou Yi's bidding, Lin Yanran was shocked:
"Zhou Yi, what are you doing?"
Her voice was a little angry but more puzzled, she didn't understand why Zhou Yi wanted to buy this ginseng? That's fifteen million! Although she had it, it was obviously not worth spending on it.
And Zhou Yi gave her a reassuring look, and his voice sounded in Lin Yanran's mind:
"Trust me!"
Hearing Zhou Yi's price increase, there was silence in the luxury private room for a while, and he said loudly: "Sixteen million!"
"Eighteen million!"
"Twenty million!"
Hearing Zhou Yi call for 20 million, the voice in the private room was obviously hesitant: "Two... Twenty-five million!"
"Thirty million!"
Zhou Yi quickly called the price, making everyone's heads dizzy, it seems that he is going to gnaw to death with the people in the luxury private room!
Crash...
The curtain of the luxurious private room was opened, and when he saw this person, the rich man in the audience was also embarrassed, it was actually Guan Feng, the eldest son of the Guan family!
At this time, Lin Yanran saw Guan Feng and immediately understood why Zhou Yi did this, it turned out that he had long known that the person in the private room was the Guan family!
"Labor and capital pay 40 million! Let's see who can rob me!"
"Haha, it turned out to be Guan Gongzi!" Zhou Yi hugged his fists at Guan Feng, and then joked: "Since it's Guan Gongzi, then I won't continue to raise the price, please!"
Seeing Zhou Yi, Guan Feng almost fainted, spitting a bloody sword in his mouth, and his body trembled violently and pointed at him: "You... You..... You... Zhou Yi!"
Zhou Yi smiled: "It's rare that Guan Gongzi still remembers me!
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other, their expressions were extremely exciting, it seems that Zhou Yi and Guan Feng had a grudge before, but even if a civilian has Lin Yanran behind him, how can he fight the powerful Guan family!
Zhou Yi's actions made Bai Cheng raise his eyebrows, and said secretly in his heart: "Even I can't see through this son, but what can be confirmed is that he is at least the Grandmaster Dan Jin, but he is arrogant and thinks that Dan Jin is invincible, and the old lady of the Guan family is..."
Does the beating still hurt? Zhou Yi's voice was like a magic sound like a magic sound, making him clench his fists, the green tendons on his forehead burst out, and he threatened viciously: "You are waiting to be hunted down and killed by my Guan family endlessly!"
In the face of his threat, Zhou Yi didn't care, chasing and killing? It's really ridiculous, it's not certain who will chase and kill who at that time...
"Old man, don't announce it yet!"
Old... Old man? He actually called Old Man Bai!
Hearing his words, Bai Cheng was obviously stunned, no one in the East China Sea had ever called him that!
"Forty million once!"
"Forty million twice!"
"Forty million three times!"
Boom...
The thrashing fell, and Bai Cheng announced with a smile: "Congratulations to the distinguished guests of the luxury private room for auctioning the century-old ginseng of Changbai Mountain at a high price of 40 million!"
In the private room, Guan Feng sat on the chair weakly, his hands always kept his fists clenched, and he clenched his teeth and jumped like thunder: "Damn Zhou Yi!
