Chapter 32: Tricks
As the hammer in the auctioneer's hand landed on the wooden mat with a soft sound, the entire auction hall fell silent.
The auction is about to begin.
The lights in the auditorium were dimmed, and a bright daylight shone directly from the ceiling and shone on the small blank table where the auction items were about to be placed.
Lin Xiangwan glanced in the direction of Chu Di in the dark, and it was a coincidence that he was also looking at her.
As soon as their eyes met, there were a few fires crackling in the air.
Lin Xiangwan hooked the corners of his lips and smiled at Chu Di, Chu Di's eyes were a little blurry, as if he couldn't understand her expression, let alone her heart.
Lin Xiangwan withdrew his gaze and reinvested in the auction room.
I don't know what others will think when they hear what she just said, she only knows how she feels.
There is no empathy in this world, you feel that your heart and liver are torn bloody, and your intestines are broken, in fact, others can't experience it at all, look at your expression of horror, sympathize for a while, and then you should be happy and happy, maybe it won't be long before you will use your suffering as a talking point and publicize it......
Her sadness and sadness, her thoughts about Ye Zhen, no one will understand how deep that feeling is, don't pin your hopes on others, let alone lower your worth, begging others to understand your feelings, no matter how loud you shout, it's in vain, don't blame others for being cold-blooded, only blame yourself for being defenseless.
Your own path is your own choice, your legs grow on your body, and how you walk is all up to your own will.
Heaven, hell, a thought.
Presumably, Chu Di also knows this truth best.
Otherwise, he would not have achieved what he is today.
Sometimes I think about it, he is actually more miserable than her, at least when the Ye family is defeated, no matter what the reason, she can still sell herself at a good price, so that the family can have no worries about food and clothing, but when the Chu family is defeated, it is also like a mountain, but it is kind and malicious, and no one has ever lent a helping hand to him.
Even if someone stretches out, with Chu's mother's character, she may not want it.
Therefore, he only struggled hard, was invincible between the underworld and the white way, and made unimaginable efforts to get everything he has today.
You can't blame anyone else for your own disaster. In the past, when the Ye family went out of business, Lin Xiangwan had complained about her father's old friends, why didn't she pull them at a critical time, and as she got older, she realized that others have no reason and no responsibility to bear your heavy life, how shrewd businessmen are, they have long seen that Chu Di does not force the Ye family to the end and vow not to give up, how can he let his business get into danger by helping others?
What's more, Chu Di's reputation has always been bad, and his unscrupulous means, as well as his ruthlessness and violence, are well-known in the circle.
Now, they have come to this point, Lin Xiangwan just feels regretful, not for himself, but for him.
If he knew that there was today and everything in the future, should he be more decisive about her in the first place?
To be soft on the enemy means to be cruel to oneself.
Chu Di, have you ever regretted it? Do you regret letting me go?
The first lot was invited to the stage by a young lady wearing a Chinese-style cheongsam, and the cover was uncovered by the blood jade bracelet.
The light shone on the red flannel, and the blood in the blood jade was as if it was alive, flowing smoothly under the light, and it was terrifying to watch.
The auction is the same as the performance, the more important the more important it is, the more it must be placed in the back, and the first ones that appear are inconspicuous things in the hot field, and the auctioneer must have seen the ominousness of the blood jade bracelet, plus its bracelet is too small, very few people can wear it, and the practicality is not strong, so no one is optimistic about it, so let it come out to take the lead.
The starting price of the bracelet is 500,000, and after the auctioneer began to bid, the buyers below were not enthusiastic, and the bidding price of the sparse Lala was called 1.2 million, which was still a big difference from the seller's psychological price of 2 million, and it was about to be unauctioned.
If the auction starts and fails, I am afraid that it will have a bad impact on the subsequent lots, so the auctioneer raised the small mallet in his hand, and constantly introduced the preciousness and rarity of blood jade to the buyers, hoping that someone could increase the price again, until the audience was a little impatient, and he had no choice but to slowly drop the arm that had been raised - right here, from the back row of the auction hall, a clear female voice suddenly came, "1.5 million." ”
Lin Xiangwan didn't know where to find a buyer's auction card, held the sign high, and quoted the price at the same time.
The audience in front couldn't help but look back, Shen Shijun gently pulled the corner of Lin Xiangwan's clothes, Lin Xiangwan squeezed his brows at him, and then leaned over and whispered something in his ear.
From Chu Di's point of view, the two of them seemed to be leaning together intimately at this time, and Lin Xiangwan was so close to Shen Shijun, as long as her body moved forward a little further, her lips would kiss Shen Shijun's earlobe. Chu Di couldn't hear what they were saying, but in the dark he felt that the eyes of the two of them were drifting towards him, with disdain and contempt in their eyes.
He was so upset that he felt his anger arching outward, what could they say? It was nothing more than to laugh at him, a leopard, who only had money and didn't know the goods?
"2 million. Raising the number plate in his hand slightly, Chu Di clearly spit out the number.
The audience was in an uproar, just now Lin Xiangwan added 300,000, which is already a big deal, but Chu Di is even more arrogant than her, as soon as she opens her mouth, it is 500,000, 500,000 is nothing for these rich people, but as far as this lot is concerned, it is already a big increase.
"2.2 million. ”
"2.5 million. ”
"2.7 million. ”
"5 million!"
It seems that he has played enough of such a game of number superposition, and Chu Di suddenly threw out a sky-high price. The audience was silent at this time, watching these two people perform, the whole audience was quiet, everyone's current light was gathered on Lin Xiangwan, and everyone was speculating about this woman who was sitting next to the old lady of the Shen family, who was protected by Shen Shijun, and who was-for-tat with Chu Di, who was she and where did she come from.
Hearing this high price, Lin Xiangwan seemed to have some surprises, but the surprise was annoyance. She tilted her head slightly, and said to Shen Shijun with some grievances, "Senior brother, he is so annoying, he wants to rob this treasure with others, he is a big man, when does he want to make a bracelet, and he can't wear it! ”
The woman's coquettish tone seemed to announce to everyone, her extraordinary relationship with Shen Shijun, and the audience in the front row nodded knowingly when they heard this conversation.
It turned out that the ** child and the gentleman fought hard for a woman...... Hongyan is really a lot of trouble......
Shen Shijun was helplessly pulled into the battle by Lin Xiangwan, he didn't want to mix more with her and Chu Di's affairs, but now after Lin Xiangwan's description, he couldn't wash it away by jumping into the Yellow River.
It's just that, if you can't wash it, you can't wash it out, isn't it a common thing to insert yourself twice for your sister?
"6 million. Shen Shijun calmly raised the sign, and then saw Lin Xiangwan smiling like a well-fed cat.
Chu Di's anger had reached an unprecedented level, Lin Xiangwan's actions were like a slap in the face directly in the face, not leaving him any face, his eyes were burning red, his whole body seemed to be about to burst into flames, gritted his teeth, and squeezed out a voice from between his teeth, "7 million." ”
"7.5 million. After Lin Xiangwan quoted the price, she quickly increased the price, and then she leaned proudly next to Shen Shijun, crossed Erlang's legs, and squinted at Chu Di.
However, under the anger, although Chu Di's sanity has not recovered, the true character of a businessman has begun to recover. His mind was spinning rapidly, Lin Xiangwan was so fearless and unreasonable to increase the price, I am afraid it was just a radical method, in fact, she didn't like this bracelet, and she didn't have to shoot it, she just deliberately raised the price, and then let him pay a high price to buy a useless thing, and her scheming succeeded.
But what if he doesn't take her call?
7.5 million is not a small amount for her or for Shen Shijun, although the Shen family is well-informed in the political circles, but if you come up with such a large amount of money at once, I am afraid it will not be easy, and Shen Shijun himself, like Lin Xiangwan, is just a doctor in the hospital, even if there is some gray income, how much can it have?
If they can't come up with the money, then what will the Shen family think of her, the woman who has caused them so much trouble? What will Shen Shijun think of her?
Chu Di thought of this section, and suddenly felt that Huo Ran was cheerful, put the auction card in his hand aside, raised the champagne and tasted it leisurely, making a gesture of giving up, he no longer fought with Lin Xiangwan for this jade bracelet.
Sure enough, as the auctioneer repeatedly called for the price, and the gavel in his hand was raised higher and higher, Lin Xiangwan's face became more and more solemn. Chu Di's mood became happy with the change in her face, as if he could already guess how this stubborn woman would lower her high head and come to him for help, and a pleasant smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
"Bang. With a bang, the gavel fell, and the auction made a good start, and the auctioneer said in a very excited tone, "7.5 million, the Western Han Dynasty blood jade jade bracelet was auctioned to the young lady in the VIP seat, please applaud her for her contribution to public welfare." ”
The drums were thundering, and the audience watched eagerly as Miss Manners dragged the brand marking the blood jade bracelet to Lin Xiangwan's side with a red velvet, and the closer she got to it, the paler Lin Xiangwan's face became, she bit her mouth lightly, and looked at Chu Di as if asking for help......
