When he arrived at the auction house, Jiang Ping registered, paid the deposit, received the number plate, and quickly completed the procedures for participating in the auction. Although this was Jiang Ping's first time participating in the auction after his rebirth, he had done similar things many times in his previous life, and he was already very familiar with this set of processes, so he did not encounter any problems.

However, not long after Jiang Ping sat down in the auction hall, there was an uninvited guest around him. This guy is the Xu Hongfei who met when he was holding the auction manual a few days ago.

After a few days, Xu Hongfei had forgotten the embarrassing encounter before, and he looked arrogant again. He sat down directly without looking around at all, and then realized that the person next to him was actually Jiang Ping.

Xu Hongfei, who was taken aback, instinctively wanted to leave this dangerous element, but as soon as he stood up halfway, he thought, if he left like this, wouldn't it seem that he was too weak? Seeing that the big thick legs he had just hugged were about to arrive, he must not weaken his momentum at this time. So Xu Hongfei sat down again, but he tilted slightly to the side, revealing his inner vanity.

In fact, Jiang Ping just wanted to get the object he wanted today, and since Xu Hongfei didn't take the initiative to provoke Jiang Ping, he didn't plan to trouble this guy, just patiently waited for the auction to start.

At this time, a person said in a deep voice not far from Jiang Ping: "Xu Hongfei, you are here, call me to find it!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Jiang Ping's whole body tensed involuntarily, and his hands even began to tremble slightly. At this moment, Jiang Ping had an impulse in his heart, which made him just want to turn around and pounce on him, and use all his means to kill this guy who spoke.

Fortunately, Jiang Ping still maintains some sanity. Know if you do that. Spend the rest of your life in prison. Either they can only hide in Tibet in panic between China and Japan.

"Calm down, Jiang Ping, you have to be calm!" Jiang Ping wiped his face with trembling hands, and at the same time reminded himself in his heart: "If you want to take revenge, there is an opportunity, don't put yourself in it because of impulse, it's not worth it!"

After repeating it several times in his heart, Jiang Ping slowly calmed down and barely suppressed the urge to do it. At this time, that person had also sat down next to Xu Hongfei. The two were whispering something.

Jiang Ping suppressed the monstrous anger in his heart, turned his head to look at it quietly, and immediately determined that he had heard it correctly just now, this person was indeed Dong Zhen, his partner in his previous life!

Compared with Dong Zhen in Jiang Ping's memory, he is much younger now. Although this guy always has a smile on his face, he is polite to everyone. But Jiang Ping, who had suffered a big loss from him, knew in his heart that Dong Zhen was definitely a dangerous poisonous snake.

Don't look at Dong Zhen's usual harmless appearance, but once he feels that there are enough benefits, he will immediately pounce on you and tear you apart, and he can betray anyone without hesitation. Even my mother and son are no exception.

At the same time as Jiang Ping looked at Dong Zhen, Dong Zhen's gaze just fell on his face. This guy even nodded and smiled at Jiang Ping. It looks quite kind.

However, Jiang Ping found that a cold light flashed in Dong Zhen's eyes, and Jiang Ping, who knew this guy very well, knew that this showed that he had bad intentions towards him. It seems that Xu Hongfei and Dong Zhen whispered just now, and they were complaining to him.

Although the alarm bell was already ringing in his heart, Jiang Ping also smiled faintly at Dong Zhen as a return gift. It's just that the moment the two make eye contact, it seems as if a spark is exploding in the sky. This pair of enemies in the previous life is destined to have a vicious fight in this life.

Of course, Xu Hongfei didn't know the grievances between Jiang Ping and Dong Zhen, he only felt that his backer was coming, and his waist was naturally stiff, so he proudly gestured to Jiang Ping to cut his throat, saying that the auction would make him look good.

In fact, even if Xu Hongfei does not take the initiative to provoke, Jiang Ping will not coexist peacefully with him. When Dong Zhen was in the time, Jiang Ping made a decision, whenever this guy was involved, he must find a way to sabotage.

The so-called "it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and the villain has been revenge for ten years", on the issue of revenge against Dong Zhen, Jiang Ping decided to put the villain first and then the gentleman. first use all kinds of means to collect some interest from him, and finally give this guy a fatal blow.

Of course, Jiang Ping would not be naïve enough to express his thoughts, he just laughed at Xu Hongfei's provocation and didn't take it to heart at all.

However, Dong Zhen looked at the calm Jiang Ping thoughtfully, and was a little curious about this young man who had such a cultivation at a young age.

Dong Zhen cherished the opportunity to come to Suzhou City to be independent, and he knew that as long as Chen Yiqun could be satisfied, he would be able to get ahead in the near future. Because of this, Dong Zhen will not ignore any detail. Even if it is just a young man like Jiang Ping, he will take it seriously and will definitely not be negligent.

The auction starts on time, and one by one the lots are sent up and sold by the auctioneer. In 2002, the antique craze has risen, and many lots have been sought after. Many lots go through several rounds or even more than a dozen rounds of bidding before they are finally sold, and the competition is fierce.

However, so far, Jiang Ping's fancy antiques have not started bidding. So he can only watch others compete, and it is inevitable that he will feel a little bored.

Xu Hongfei looked at Jiang Ping, who had never raised a card, and couldn't help but say disdainfully: "Poor three, obviously you can't afford anything, but you still have to pretend here, it's really rubbish!"

Xu Hongfei is bullied and afraid of hard, if it weren't for the big backer Dong Zhen beside him, he would never dare to say that. However, Xu Hongfei didn't notice that when he said this, Dong Zhen next to him frowned slightly.

Dong Zhen is an insidious pragmatist, who has always believed in the saying that "it is better to do a practical thing than to say 10,000 empty words". In his opinion, if Xu Hongfei really wants to target Jiang Ping, he can operate quietly and secretly, and let the other party suffer a loss, and he doesn't know who did it. Instead of being like now, there are no specific actions, only verbal cannons to provoke the other party.

Thinking of this, Dong Zhen was a little dissatisfied with Xu Hongfei, and felt that this person would not be of much help to him. If Dong Zhen hadn't just arrived in Su City and hadn't had time to establish his own team, he would definitely exclude Xu Hongfei from his small circle.

Just when Dong Zhen was secretly turning this thought in his mind, the auctioneer was loudly introducing the next lot: "Everyone, this is a Ming blue and white plum vase, complete in quality, exquisite craftsmanship, and a fine product in Ming Dynasty porcelain." The starting price of this plum vase is 900,000 yuan, and the price increase is 50,000 yuan each time, and now you can start bidding. ”

Jiang Ping noticed that when the auctioneer mentioned this plum vase, Dong Zhen subconsciously touched his nose, and his eyes brightened. In his previous life, he knew about Dong Zhen, and immediately knew that this guy was very interested in this plum bottle, and he would definitely try his best to get his hands on it.

Holding the principle of "everything Dong Zhen wants to destroy", Jiang Ping immediately decided to add a little trouble to this guy in the next auction.

After the auctioneer announced that he could bid, a middle-aged man quoted a price of one million yuan. Recently, the plum vase has been very popular among collectors, and after that, several people have been bidding one after another, and soon the offer exceeded the 1.2 million mark.

According to the current market, 1.2 million yuan to buy a plum bottle in the Ming Dynasty is also a lot of money. So when one buyer called out the price of 1.25 million, the enthusiasm of others to bid was obviously not as high as before, and the auction hall fell silent for a while.

Although Dong Zhen has not moved for the time being, Jiang Ping is convinced that he will definitely make a bid, so he grabbed the front and raised the number plate in his hand.

"Okay, the 35th bid is 1.3 million!" The auctioneer with quick eyes and quick mouth immediately said loudly: "The current price of the Ming Dynasty blue and white plum vase is 1.3 million, is there anyone else who wants to bid?"

While the auctioneer was talking, Jiang Ping deliberately glanced at Xu Hongfei triumphantly, making this guy very angry, and immediately raised the number plate in his hand.

The auctioneer hurriedly announced: "Okay, the 19th bid is 1.35 million." ”

Jiang Ping didn't want to raise his cards again, and raised the price to 1.4 million. And Xu Hongfei was not to be outdone, and immediately quoted a price of 1.45 million.

Seeing that Xu Hongfei and Jiang Ping were on the bar, Dong Zhen couldn't help frowning secretly. Although Dong Zhen is determined to win this Tsinghua plum bottle, he also feels that Xu Hongfei's bid is too early, and there is also an element of anger with Jiang Ping, which is likely to make the price too high.

Before being transferred to Suzhou City to preside over the overall situation, Dong Zhen's main job was to collect antiques for Chen Yiqun. All the antiques that Chen Yiqun fancies, Dong Zhen has a way to get them for him.

Of course, the methods used by Dong Zhen are not always upright. What can be bought for a small amount of money, he naturally won't go out of his way to engage in other means. And if there are some exceptional circumstances, such as the original owner is unwilling to sell, or the other party's price is too high, Dong Zhen will use other means to help Chen Yiqun get these things.

In recent years, Dong Zhen has also used several shady methods, which has also ruined many people's families. However, his methods are clever, so he has not been discovered by the police. This is also the reason why Chen Yiqun values Dong Zhen and entrusts Su City to him in charge. However, Dong Zhen is also responsible for collecting antiques for Chen Yiqun, so he will appear at this auction today.

Originally, according to Dong Zhen's estimates, it would only cost about 1.4 million at most to take down this plum bottle. However, because of Jiang Ping halfway, his expenses greatly exceeded his budget. And this will obviously affect Chen Yiqun's good impression of Dong Zhen, and also make him more and more dissatisfied with Jiang Ping.

At the same time, Jiang Ping and Xu Hongfei were still bidding, and the price of this plum bottle was close to the two million mark. (To be continued......)
