Chapter 18: The Auction {I}
On August 5th, the wind was high and the clouds were light, and an auction was held on the thirteenth floor of the Xicheng Hotel.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the venue was already arranged, the lighting of the venue was slightly dim, and above it was a podium for the host, and fifty VIP seats were arranged at a bright level.
Ah Mei looked at her phone, it was only nine o'clock, and she couldn't help but want to continue to sleep for a while, anyway, it didn't start until half past nine, and it was not too late to wait for breakfast to wait for the end of the morning auction.
However, Ah Mei looked at a message on his phone, which made him unable to continue calmly.
"If you have a parchment roll at auction, remember to pay attention to the seller's information. "A message from Uncle Maple Leaf.
Amei frowned, did she finally know the purpose of her trip?
As soon as half past nine arrived, the auction hall on the thirteenth floor had already arrived with some people, some of them were chatting with people, some were meditating and recuperating, and some were holding their mobile phones to find something.
Amei is located in a corner, there is no way, no matter where it is, it is seated according to status. And Amei knew that it was not him who represented the Mei family today, but that Miss Mei.
And the handsome young man who also arrived early in the other corner was looking at Ah Mei intently, although there was no expression on his face, but his heart was making waves.
There are already a few staff members on the stage, and they are methodically bidding for the guests who are seated. Although it started at half past nine, but a few important guests did not come, the auctioneer would not be so hasty, after all, the rules are dead, and people are alive.
Amei was bored for a long time, and finally at ten o'clock she saw another group of people coming in at the door.
A middle-aged rich man sitting in front of Ah Mei was whispering to his friend: "Look, the young man in white in front is the second young Lan Feng of the Lan family, it is said that he has gradually mastered the rights of the Lan family now, and walking half a position behind him is the personal housekeeper of the eldest young master of the Zhu family surnamed Li, and the second is Lin Yu, the son of the Lin family in Tongzhou, and the young lady of the Yangluo Dongfang family, Dongfang Tingting, oh, the last one to come in is the young lady of the Long Tengmei family." ”
The companion was a little puzzled: "Why is it her who came in last, although this Mei family is indeed one of the most powerful families, but this Mei family's Miss Mei heard that there is something extraordinary." ”
The middle-aged rich man laughed: "You are right, originally according to the status and strength, among the people who came today, the most qualified to walk in the last admission is the Lan family Ershao, but this Lan Ershao has an unusual relationship with Miss Mei, not to mention that I heard that this Miss Mei has no other skills, so she likes to be in the limelight and enjoy the worship of others, so I guess it must be Lan Ershao who deliberately gave it to him, as for the others, they are all sensible, and they can't afford to deal with an ignorant little girl, not to mention that Old Man Mei's face still has to be sold." ”
As these people entered the house, the auction room finally auctioned off a host in a dress and began the auction.
Ah Mei looked at it with a curious face, the rich people in the field abandoned their usual high-mindedness, and saw what they liked here like ordinary people, and bargained as much as they wanted.
"Two million" Boss Wang shouted.
"Two million four hundred thousand," Boss Li said.
"Is there anything higher, Boss Li is a monk of 2.4 million, this is a seven-leaf flower from southern Xinjiang, which has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, prolonging life, and rarely enters the market, this flower can only be traded after the seller has worked hard to obtain the favor of the people in southern Xinjiang, so the opportunity should not be missed. The host is agitating the hearts of the rich.
Sure enough, someone heard that it was so rare that they couldn't help but increase the price: "Three million"
As soon as everyone heard it, they knew that this boss should be bound to win, so they gave up.
As the auction items in the field came to an end, Ame's face was disappointed, it was almost noon, and it was obvious that there was no parchment roll that he needed to pay attention to in the morning. And strangely, none of those seats at the front of the table ever bid, as if today's auction had nothing to do with them.
The host looked at everyone and slowly spoke: "Then the last auction item in the morning session is a cold moon stone, I believe this treasure, everyone knows its benefits, then I won't explain much, please bid."
Ah Mei looked at the stage with some doubts, it was the first time she saw that the host did not accept the use and origin of things.
Some of the rich people in the audience frowned, some were indifferent, and some were even already discussing with their friends where to eat at noon.
And what surprised Amei was that this time those people in the front row actually shot.
I saw Lan Feng's first bidding: "Ten million." ”
Dongfang Tingting: "Fifteen million." ”
Lin Yu: "Twenty million"
Mei Xiuqing: "50 million"
I saw the rest of the people frowning, looking at Miss Mei who was triumphant.
And the butler of the bamboo family, who has been silent: "Sixty million." ”
Mei Xiuqing looked at the other party angrily, but the other party turned a blind eye, and she had no choice but to hang her head.
Just when everyone thought that this treasure was going to belong to the Zhu family, suddenly a voice came from the corner of the auction: "Seventy million." ”
Everyone was surprised, only to see a handsome young man in the corner flicking his fingers, looking at the cold moon stone on the stage with burning eyes.
And Ah Mei looked at the Cold Moon Stone with a surprised expression, because he felt that this stone had an extremely pure Yin Qi, which seemed to have some kind of benefit for the human body, especially for men.
The few people in the front row stared carefully at the young man who was bidding, and they were very surprised, the other party was so young, but he dared to argue with us, but they all knew each other who could be compared with them in their generation, and there was no such teenager.
The host saw that everyone was silent, and then spoke: "If no one asks for the price anymore, then this Cold Moon Stone will belong to this son." ”
And Lan Feng looked at the young man with interest, and said, "Seven thousand one million"
Boy: "Eighty million." ”
Mei Xiuqing on the side couldn't help it: "Where did you come from, you dare to argue with my brother Lan." I don't know how thick the sky is. ”
As soon as she said this, although the young man's face did not have any expression, the faces of Lan Feng and the auction staff on the side changed. Isn't this provoking others and making others think that they are bullying others?
And the young man said: "If you have money, you will continue to compete, and if you don't have money, you will sit down obediently." ”
Mei Xiuqing still opened his mouth to say something, but Lan Feng on the side stopped him in time, and said with a smile: "Dare to ask this, your surname." ”
The young man glanced at him and replied coldly: "Mo"
And the few people in the front row dealt with Mei Xiuqing, and their faces changed greatly, and no one dared to squeak suddenly.
Later, after the host's sentence Mo Gongzi's bid was successful, the morning auction ended.
