Chapter 224: Auction
The trio took a quick elevator to the tenth floor, where the auction began in five minutes.
After a busy day yesterday, the auction hall was gorgeously decorated, with large chandeliers flickering high, exquisite murals hanging on the walls, and bunches of bright and eye-catching flowers decorated just right, giving the spacious hall a hint of Lang Man's aesthetic feeling.
In front of it is a spacious stage, with a table one and a half meters high, microphones, and small wooden mallets neatly placed, which is the auctioneer's position, and there is a large booth on the side, which should be used for the exhibition of goods. The auctioneer was already in place, standing on the booth and whispering to the staff, he was a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a round frame of gold-rimmed glasses, somewhat bald, but from time to time there was a fine light coming out of his eyes, so that people knew that this man must be very good at reading words and feelings.
At this time, nearly eighty percent of the people came, and the semi-arc seating arrangement was very reasonable to take care of every audience, Lu Han glanced at it, the well-dressed gentlemen, the noble and elegant celebrities, and the white-haired old men, all of them were full of interest, and their eyes flashed looking forward to the upcoming auction, seeing that they were so excited, probably because they wanted to wait for a good Taobao.
Looking up, there were balconies protruding above the heads on both sides, and men and women were already sitting on it, Lu Han knew that it was a VIP room, and he heard Zhang Min say that assets of more than one billion yuan could get distinguished VIP services.
Lu Han suddenly had an idea at this time, if the assets of all the people in the whole room were superimposed, would it be stronger than a country's financial resources.
Suddenly, Lu Han caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, it was Tang Gaoqiang!!
He had just stepped out of the small balcony at the moment, and beside him stood a foreigner, with a high nose, deep eye sockets, white excessive skin, and a standard Russian devil. And on the balcony next to him, Shen Ling was sitting there smiling and chatting with a beautiful woman, and hurriedly lowered his head, Lu Han was afraid of being recognized.
Lu Han looked at the woman, damn, it turned out to be Natalie!
Today, this woman is not disguised, wearing a black chiffon dress, her slightly powdered facial features are very good-looking, she sat next to Shen Ling, chatting with him playfully, Shen Ling's hand unconsciously wrapped around Natalie's waist, and her body leaned forward more and more......
I thought that Natalie would dodge Shen Ling's dirty hands, but Lu Han was disappointed, not only did Natalie not dodge at all, she also smiled charmingly, took the initiative to get close to Shen Ling's arms, and smiled like a delicate flower in full bloom, very beautiful.
Damn, stinky **! Lu Han cursed fiercely in his heart, what a veritable courtesan.
Just as Lu Han was looking up, the foreigner sitting next to Tang Gaoqiang seemed to notice Lu Han's gaze, and his sharp eyes scanned down fiercely, Lu Han was secretly afraid in his heart, this person has extremely strong anti-reconnaissance ability, could it be the person who killed the group?
"At two o'clock, the target appears, the target appears. Cheng Ying's cautious voice came from the invisible earphones, and this girl sat in the last row, which was conducive to observation. Lu Han hummed softly, it was an answer, he hurriedly found a seat to sit down, now is an auction, not a casino, there is no need to be too showy.
At five o'clock, the lights on the field suddenly dimmed, leaving only the stage in front of it shining brightly, a series of high heels sounded softly, and Zhang Min, who was dressed in noble and gorgeous clothes, strolled out of the backstage, her demeanor was elegant, her movements were light, coupled with her angel-like face, she won the applause of everyone present as soon as she appeared.
Lu Han also joined the ranks of applause, now Zhang Min is really beautiful, more beautiful than any moment she has seen before, like a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world, from her smile glimpsed the nobility and elegance of the woman, and the quirkiness that beats out from time to time in her eyes, all of which make her character more three-dimensional, and secretly praise in her heart, such a charming little goblin, enough to make any man crazy.
Zhang Min cleared his throat and said with a smile: "Gentlemen, ladies, good afternoon, welcome to this 'Pearl of the Sea' auction. ”
Elegant, temperament, the voice is like a natural sound, directly into everyone's heart, even the noble gentleman can not be calm, they applauded desperately, for a time the hall applause thunderous, so lively.
Lu Han heard a foreigner next to him secretly praising Zhang Min as a typical oriental lady, he couldn't help but laugh secretly, and said in his heart If you had seen her on the other side, I guess you wouldn't have said that.
Zhang Min's eyes swept the audience, smiled sweetly, and continued: "This auction will be held for two days, and the value of the auctioned goods should be estimated to be one billion US dollars, and you don't have to worry about the authenticity of the goods, all the goods in this auction have been identified by the national first-class treasure connoisseurs, and there are certificate numbers, so you can rest assured that you can bid." ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Min suddenly stopped his eyes on Lu Han, who was sitting in the front row: "Finally, I wish everyone a good time." ”
Applause thundered, Zhang Min walked down the booth in bursts of applause, she walked to Lu Han and sat down, the little bird made the eyes of all the men in the audience breathe fire, Lu Han secretly screamed badly, what should I do if I am discovered.
Just thinking about it, suddenly there were several sharp eyes behind him, it was Tang Gaoqiang, no need to turn his head, Lu Han straightened his back, now he can't show a little weak expression, if Tang Gaoqiang sees any clues, the night scene will not be good.
The auctioneer slowly walked out of the backstage, he was very funny, briefly introduced himself, and then said, "Before starting the auction, let me talk about the process of this auction." ”
"This auction is divided into three parts, namely jewelry and jade, calligraphy and painting collections and hunting for treasures, the first is the auction of jewelry and jade. After saying that, he nodded to Zhang Min in the audience and signaled for the auction to begin.
At this time, the lights dimmed by two or three points, and the huge LED display behind the auctioneer slowly emitted a faint blue light, like the deep sea, and the picture gradually became clearer, and I saw two people in diving suits swimming towards the bottom of the sea, as if watching a documentary, and everyone was engrossed.
The further the two go downstream, the clearer the picture becomes, and through the shooting of the camera, the magnificence of the underwater world is vividly displayed in front of everyone, red corals, tropical flounder, and schools of huge fish, for a while, the exhibition hall has become a huge maritime museum.
Although the picture in front of him was very beautiful, many people wondered what this was doing? Could it be that before the auction began, it was necessary to watch a science and education program? Lu Han also had the same question, but after he turned his head to see Zhang Min's confident expression, he was not too embarrassed to ask.
The two divers soon came to the bottom of the sea, and the picture was relatively dark, but the bright flashlight was still barely clear.
There are not only the two of them at the bottom of the sea, there are actually more than a dozen staff members wearing diving suits, who are nervously busy there, because the picture is too dark, the audience can't see clearly, anyway, the scene is a little chaotic.
Some people at the scene didn't buy it, and they whispered about why the collection was not available, but the auctioneer did not explain this, and his smile was very professional.
Just five minutes later, just as the audience's mood gradually increased, two people suddenly walked out of the backstage, and when they looked at it, it was actually the diver on the screen just now, one of whom was holding a jade box in his hand and handed it to the auctioneer.
The auctioneer took it with a smile, then opened the box and said loudly to the topic: "The first collection, emerald stones." ”
