Chapter 307: Hope
However, Fang Bai did not touch the elixir in that valley for the time being, but let it grow, preparing to establish a pill room in that valley and concentrate on refining the elixir after his strength became stronger in the future and he had the ability to refine the elixir. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Although it is said that directly picking the elixir and taking it can also improve the strength of cultivation, it cannot exert the maximum medicinal effect of the elixir, which is equivalent to destroying the heavenly things, and after refining the elixir into an elixir, the medicinal effect of the elixir can be maximized.
Fang Bai didn't pick the elixir in the valley, but the hundreds of elixirs found in the mysterious sinkhole, he had always kept them in the space ring and carried them with him, as long as he took out one casually, its value could kill the hundred-year-old wild ginseng that Hua Yi took out.
Therefore, many guests in the hall were competing for Huayi's century-old wild ginseng, but Fang Bai was unmoved, and sat there for a long time, eating and drinking by himself, and occasionally chatting with Ye Yumei beside him.
After a fierce bidding, in the end, Shen Huanian, who had a good relationship with Huayi, got the century-old wild ginseng at a price of 15 million yuan.
The Shen family's "Keren Group" specializes in the production and sale of various beauty products, which sell well in China, and many of them use the formula provided by "Rejuvenation Zhai".
Shen Huanian did not hesitate to throw a huge amount of money, of course, he did not take a fancy to the century-old wild ginseng, his main purpose was to continue to close the friendship with Huayi, so as to deepen the close cooperation between Shen and Hua.
Shen Huanian's charity act of throwing 15 million yuan to donate to charity aroused warm applause from the guests at the scene, which was regarded as a limelight.
And the items that Hua Yi took out were auctioned for a high price of more than 10 million, beating the host Jiang Xiaoyu, which made Hua Yi feel a light on his face, nodded to Shen Huanian, and returned to his seat in high spirits.
Although more than 300 guests arrived this time, more than half of them were husbands and wives or even the whole family.
And like Xie Yifeng and Luo Xiaoli, who are just lovers or lovers, each of them needs to take out an item for auction.
Due to the limited time, the speed of the auction of items is very fast, during which unless you meet Jiang Xiaoyu, Hua Yi and other people with strong backgrounds and broad connections, it will take some more time during the auction, and other people's items can basically be sold in a few minutes after they are brought on the stage.
After Huayi, the guests who took the stage to offer things were inferior to Jiang Xiaoyu and Huayi a lot, regardless of their identity background or personal fame, and most of the items they took out were gold and silver hand ornaments, antique jade, and celebrity calligraphy and paintings, so the scene did not set off any waves again, and the transaction price did not bring surprises.
Of course, the guests here are all elites from all walks of life, who doesn't have a few friends present? Therefore, there is no need to worry about the embarrassing situation that the items will be unsold, even if there are really items that no one cares about, Jiang Xiaoyu, as the host, will personally pay for them.
Soon it was the turn of the guests at this table of Oriental Poetry to take the stage to offer their gifts.
"Look, Dongfang Rushi is on the rostrum!"
I remember that the last time she auctioned it seemed to be a pair of words written by her grandfather Dongfang Leiming himself, which was bought by a wealthy businessman who had business dealings with the Dongfang family for one million. I don't know what she's going to bring this time!"
"No matter what it is, as long as the price is not too high, I will take a picture!"
"Brother Li, I know that you are interested in Dongfang Rushi Falling Flowers, but people are ruthless to you!
"Lao Tzu is offering love for charity, not to please Dongfang Rushi!"
Who doesn't know that you are famous for your stinginess? If you don't want to please Dongfang Rushi, you will spend a lot of money?"
In the midst of everyone's discussion and gaze, Dongfang Rushi stepped onto the rostrum and showed an oil painting in front of everyone.
The oil painting is ordinary, at first glance, you can know that it is from the hand of a beginner, the painting is a poor mountain girl carrying the title of the book, facing the morning sun to a newly built beautiful school in the distance, the girl's big eyes are shining with joy, and her expression is full of longing and hope for a better life in the future.
Dongfang Rushi's gaze swept over the guests under the rostrum, and said lightly: "This oil painting is called "Hope", and it is the work of my sister Dongfang Ruhua. The reserve price is 10,000 yuan. ”
After a few simple words, he handed over the oil painting to the auctioneer on the rostrum and returned to his seat.
“…… This oil painting may seem ordinary, but it has a beautiful meaning, reflecting the artist's love for children in mountainous areas...... If you like this painting, please bid!"
The auctioneer made some sensationalism, and then looked at the guests under the rostrum.
Speaking from the heart, the oil painting taken out by Dongfang Rushi can't be more ordinary, and if it is sold on the street, it is a question of whether anyone will buy it.
However, the author of this oil, Dongfang Ruhua, is Dongfang Leiming's favorite granddaughter, and Dongfang Rushi personally donated it, so it can be expected that there will be many guests on the scene to participate in the auction, and it is very likely that the final oil painting will be sold for 108,000 yuan.
"One hundred thousand!"
Sure enough, as soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, someone directly called the price to 100,000.
The guests followed the sound and looked around, and when they saw Jiang Xiaoyu bidding, they couldn't help but smile.
As the host of this charity auction, every time she encounters a bad auction or a high-priced item that is difficult to auction, Jiang Xiaoyu will throw bricks and lead the jade, first ask for the price, it is best to have guests participate in the bidding, if no one bids, the item belongs to her.
In Jiang Xiaoyu's view, even if this oil painting is worthless, he will not suffer a loss if he buys it, firstly, he can be regarded as dedicating his love, and secondly, he has also befriended Dongfang Rushi, a talented woman in the business world, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.
"One hundred and fifty thousand!"
"Two hundred thousand!"
"Three hundred thousand!"
"Five hundred thousand!"
……
Jiang Xiaoyu's move to attract bricks and jade obviously played a role, and after her, people continued to join the auction, including Lu Jianfeng of the Lu family, Hua Yi of the Hua family, Wang Dong of the Wang family, Xie Yifeng of the Xie family, and Shen Huanian of the Shen family.
Even Ye Yumei couldn't hold back, joined in, and directly called for one million.
A mere immature painting for a beginner in oil painting, because of the blessing of the aura of the Oriental family, actually went from a reserve price of 10,000 yuan to a high price of 1 million all the way.
But after a million, there are very few bidders.
Although there are many guests at the scene who want to please Dongfang Rushi and want to climb the big tree of the Oriental family, but their money is not blown by the wind, if it is a collectible celebrity calligraphy and painting, they may continue to bid at a higher price, but this oil painting called "Hope" has no collection value at all, even if it is given away, I am afraid no one wants it.
Therefore, the price of one million is already the limit of the bidding of the guests on the scene, and any more will make them feel a little painful.
