Chapter 69: The Auction (Part I)
After the whole hotel lobby darkened for a while, a woman in a red cheongsam appeared on the temporary booth in the hall.
The woman lightly opened her red lips, and her elegant voice came out, echoing in the hall: "Welcome guests to participate in this temporary auction held by the Xiao family, I have been preparing for this auction for a long time, and the men and beautiful ladies in the audience must not be merciful when the auction begins!"
The woman is like a fox that has been charmed for thousands of years, and suddenly attracted the attention of all the men in the audience, and some men forgot the existence of the female companion next to them, and stared at the woman on the stage without blinking.
The women in the audience are not as strong as the men's physiological reactions, as soon as the woman in the cheongsam appeared, in an instant, she attracted the hateful eyes of the ladies in the audience, Lin Tian didn't know who the woman in front of him was, he only knew that she was so beautiful, how good it would be if she could be my wife.
It can be seen how much this woman in a cheongsam attracts the attention of the opposite sex, and the hatred of the same sex.
"This woman is so beautiful!" Lin Tian muttered in distraction, like all the men present.
When Shuang Ningning heard this, she felt a trace of displeasure in her heart, what did she mean by saying this, as if she was not beautiful, and immediately said unhappily: "This woman's name is Xiao Xiao, a stunning beauty that almost everyone in the upper class of Yanjing City knows, and that mature and seductive style makes many men fall under her cheongsam, and even some middle-aged men who have started a family have fallen in love with her, and she is also the most hated existence for women in Yanjing high society!"
Lin Tian, who was sitting in a daze, listened to Shuang Ningning's words, his brows suddenly wrinkled, and with the faint light on the booth, he looked slightly at a single man not far from his seat in front of him, and at this time, he saw that the man was looking at Xiao Xiao on the stage with his eyes blazing, one hand closed one by one with Xiao Xiao's red lips, and his fingers were constantly rubbing in his crotch rhythmically.
At a glance, there were many men in the field repeating this action, which seemed to be a tickling action, but in fact, they were completely immersed in their own fantasies!
"Damn, this woman is so charming!" Lin Tian swallowed his saliva and said.
What Lin Tian saw, Shuang Ningning naturally saw it, and glanced at those lewd men with disdain, the man was really a lewd animal: "How is it, now believe my words?"
After scolding and scolding, Lin Tian looked at the plump and delicate charming curves under Xiao Xiao's red cheongsam on the stage, and then glanced at Shuang Ningning beside him, shook his head with a wry smile, and muttered in a low voice: "This woman is really a goblin!"
"Fairy, I think the scourge is real!" Seeing that Lin Tian's eyes were also attracted by Xiao Xiao, Shuang Ningning said coldly, men really don't have a good thing, and when they see a beautiful woman, they can't take their eyes off or take a step.
Casually swept the items in Xiao Xiao's hand, Lin Tian lost interest, it seems that the first auction item is an antique, he is not an antique collector, Shuang Ningning, this woman is probably not interested in those things that have existed for hundreds of years, to buy antiques, it is better to buy some real money and silver, at least to make the women around her happy.
Even if it was a stunning woman who auctioned this antique, Lin Tian didn't have much interest, his eyes moved away from Xiao Xiao, and then glanced at the entire hotel lobby, looking at the men who were eager to try and want to raise their hands, it seems that there is a lively tonight, and the matter of winning a smile from the beauty may really happen tonight.
Sure enough, the antiques auctioned for the first time were not too competitive, and finally sold for two million, and the scene completely became a picture of several men fighting.
After the auction of the first item, Xiao Xiao on the stage picked up the blue and white porcelain cup, took a sip, and then a beautiful female model walked up to the stage, but people's eyes were not on the beautiful female model at this time, but on the necklace that was shining in the middle of the female model's neck.
I have to say that the female model is very beautiful, but the necklace is even more beautiful, and the dazzling necklace completely hides the beauty of the female model.
Some women can't hide the excitement in their hearts, and begin to be coquettish to the man next to them, rubbing the man's arm with their chest, or rubbing the man's thigh with their slender and slender thighs, saying in a creepy tone that they like this necklace, and if they buy it for her, they will satisfy the man's thoughts at night.
Since ancient times, heroes have been sad about the beauty pass, and at this time, those men will naturally simply pat their chests and promise to take down this necklace after a while.
When the women heard this, they couldn't wait to love the man around them to death and leave everything to him.
Lin Tian's eyes glanced at Shuang Ningning slightly, and saw that this woman, like all women, was firmly attracted by the necklace in her eyes, but the coldness of her appearance and the pride in her bones did not make her beg the men around her like other women.
Seeing that Shuang Ningning loved this necklace, Lin Tian smiled and wanted to come forward and ask her, but at this time, Tian Xiaoming took the lead and sat on the vacant seat next to Shuang Ningning, and said with a smile: "Do you have a fancy for this silver light, how about I take a picture of it and give it to you!"
When Shuang Ningning saw Tian Xiaoming coming, her face immediately changed, and she immediately pretended not to be interested in this necklace at all, disgusted in her heart, how could she not get rid of this fart worm anywhere.
"Ning Ning, don't think about it, it's our friend, how about it be a birthday gift from me?" Tian Xiaoming said with a cheeky face.
"No!" Shuang Ningning had a cold face, without the slightest interest or joy.
"Do you like this chain, how about I give it to you?" At this moment, Lin Tian suddenly interjected.
Shuang Ningning was startled, and immediately smiled in her heart, knowing that Lin Tian said this to save the scene, but her heart was indeed warm, knowing that he couldn't afford this necklace, but it was enough to have such a heart.
Tian Xiaoming smiled disdainfully, and said contemptuously: "I don't want to brag and look at any place, can you buy this necklace if you want to?"
When Lin Tian heard this, he said with a smile: "Bragging or not, it's not for you to care, originally I didn't want to buy it, but now with what you say, I'm interested, why don't we see who is bragging, how about it?"
Tian Xiaoming glanced at Lin Tian contemptuously, nodded, and agreed with Lin Tian's words, but secretly cursed in his heart: Sure enough, he is a guy who pretends to be a coercion, he has no money and pretends to be an upstart, and he will see how embarrassed you are!
Just when the two rubbed sparks against each other, Xiao Xiao on the stage said with a smile: "This necklace is called Silver Light, presumably everyone here knows more about the information of this necklace than me, and I won't go into detail here, the starting price is one million, and each increase shall not be less than 500,000, and the auction will start now!"
As soon as Xiao Xiao's voice fell, a man raised his hand and shouted, "Two million!"
Xiao Xiao was just about to open his mouth, and another man shouted at a higher price: "Two and a half million!"
A piece of silver light, from the initial one million, has risen to six million in just a few minutes, such a price has far exceeded the imagination of everyone present.
Now this "silver light" has far exceeded its significance as jewelry, in so many people's price increase competition, has been defined as a symbol of a man's ability, and finally can photograph this necklace, undoubtedly rich, and the lady who gets this necklace will also make other ladies present envious.
"Seven million!" Tian Xiaoming raised his hand with a smile and shouted, as if the seven million was just a hundred yuan bill.
After Tian Xiaoming finished shouting, he looked at Lin Tian with a provocative look, which meant nothing more than saying, aren't you pretending, Lao Tzu shouted, you have the ability to keep up!
Shuang Ningning knew that Tian Xiaoming was deliberately provoking Lin Tian, and her little hand touched Lin Tian's big hand in the dark, signaling him not to go to see Tian Xiaoming in general.
Lin Tian is a man, he has his own dignity and pride, this is no longer a matter of money or not, now it is a matter of a man's face, people provoke the door, and be a turtle with a shrunken head, this is not Lin Tian's character.
"Ten million!" Lin Tian raised his hand and shouted lightly, his voice was as flat as usual.
"What?" Tian Xiaoming exclaimed, not only Tian Xiaoming, all the men present looked at Lin Tian one after another, wanting to see which young master or boss of this family was so wealthy, and some single ladies firmly remembered Lin Tian's appearance, and when the dance party started, they wanted to know each other.
"This gentleman bid 10 million, is there anyone who bids higher than this gentleman?" Xiao Xiao also looked at the hazy figure in the dark corner.
"Eleven million!" Tian Xiaoming only felt that he was holding back the fire in his heart, and he gritted his teeth to keep up, and he didn't believe that this guy who pretended to be forced dared to offer a higher price.
Shuang Ningning looked at Lin Tian with some concern, for fear that he would shout casually, but he would not be able to pay for it for a while, and then he would really let Tian Xiaoming see the joke!
"Fifteen million!" Lin Tian said without thinking.
At this moment, the whole audience held their breath, although the silver light is a world-famous necklace, but the price is already a little high beyond imagination, although there is no shortage of CEOs worth hundreds of millions of people here, but the money is real estate, to put it bluntly, it is not cash, if they want to take out tens of millions at once, they can also take it out, but that has to risk the capital chain being broken, which is not something that any businessman can afford.
In order to shoot a necklace, it is not worth it.
Tian Xiaoming has already greeted the eighteenth generation of Lin Tian's ancestors in his heart, the amount of almost 20 million is not small, although the family has money, he can't buy such a necklace with his spare funds, and when the time comes, he will be pinched by a business opponent, and the capital chain will be broken, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
When you said that you didn't have the money and pretended to be so big, when Tian Xiaoming calmed down and immediately thought about it, aren't you pretending, now I won't bid, see if you can come up with so much money in front of so many people in the audience, if you can't take it out, it will make people laugh off their big teeth, and then Shuang Ningning will naturally see through what kind of person he is, and after understanding who is good and who is bad, he may have a good impression of himself.
