Soon it was nine o'clock, and the party participants moved indoors to start the auction. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"100,000 for the first time!"
"One hundred thousand for the second time!"
"One hundred thousand for the third time!"
"Deal! Congratulations to this lady for winning lot 27, which was donated by Mr. XX......"
"Two hundred and fifty thousand for the third time!"
"Deal! Congratulations to the gentleman on winning lot number 7...... xx Donation ......"
……
The host of the auction was a guy with glasses, and under his skillful and incendiary moderation, the auction went smoothly, and each lot was auctioned off at a minimum price of not less than 50,000 yuan.
These auction varieties include utensils and signatures of various celebrities and celebrities, some antiques, calligraphy and paintings that are not particularly precious, some luxury goods, or expensive delicacies such as black truffles, and some legendary gadgets, such as Antarctic rocks, tribal handicrafts in the Sahara Desert, and some people auction imitation of Warren Buffett's lunch, auction a meal opportunity with a celebrity or a huge rich, etc., etc., etc.,
But unsurprisingly, none of these things are very expensive.
Yang Chen and Mu Qingsi sat on the side, and there were a few people who wanted to make friends with him, and everyone chatted with each other, and then took a picture of one or two things that they were interested in.
"Looking at this auction, it doesn't seem to be so successful."
Yang Chen found that the existing lots were all like that, the prices were not particularly high, of course he was not interested, and the other people were not very interested, and the total amount was not high, so he felt that this auction did not seem to be particularly smooth.
After all, although the funds needed to build roads in poor mountainous areas are not very large, they are at least tens of millions upward, and millions are simply not enough.
But now, all the lots combined, do not exceed three million.
It's not as expensive as Yang Chen's note.
That note could have been auctioned for a higher price, but Yang Chen didn't want to be too noisy, so it was limited to three million. But now it seems that even if Yang Chen doesn't want to take the lead, it will inevitably be noisy.
Yang Chen didn't feel very smooth here, and Wang Yongli over there didn't say anything, but his daughter Wang Meimei felt very uncomfortable:
"Damn, Yang Chen's kid can sell for three million with just one note, but now so many lots add up, and it hasn't reached three million! Isn't that the kid going to surpass my family? No, I have to think of a way......"
But what can she think of?
If you don't pay for the auction, it's because the auction item is not good, and if you want the price to be high, you have to come up with good things to auction, which is not so easy.
Where in the world are there so many high-value things to be auctioned?
After thinking about it, Wang Meimei showed a reluctant look on her face, took out something that she regarded as a treasure, put it in a box, and sent it to the auction house.
Li Xiao saw all this next to her, and inevitably showed a look of surprise: "Sister Meimei, this is your favorite, why are you ......?"
"What's the solution? You can't add up the price of the auction items in the entire auction, and it's not as high as a note from Yang Chen's bastard, right? Then where will we put the faces of our Wang family and so many people attending the meeting? Wang Meimei said angrily, she was really not in a good mood.
"Oh yes." Li Xiao also understood, thought about it, rolled his eyes, and said in Wang Meimei's ear: "Then you can't Meimei, Sister Meimei, you bleed alone?" I want to find a way to spread the news, I think, so many people, there will definitely be people who are unhappy with Yang Chen's kid who are willing to take good things out for auction. ”
Wang Meimei pursed her lips and was noncommittal.
That being said, however, as the so-called good money is hard to give up, this Golden State is not a particularly economically developed place, and there are really not many people who are particularly rich. Although there are local tyrants who spend a lot of money, but good things are put up for auction, and no matter how much money is auctioned, they have to be donated, so few people are willing.
But it's better than nothing.
She nodded and asked Li Xiao to figure out a way.
Not long after Li Xiao came back, he returned with a smile: "Sister Meimei, don't worry, this matter has spread, and many people are planning to argue with that Yang Chen kid." ”
Wang Meimei was not so optimistic, and her mood was not high: "It would be good if it was like that." ”
Li Xiao thought for a while, looked in the direction of Zhou Weijian's side, and said, "That Zhou Shao's ......."
I don't know what's going on, after the auction started, Zhou Weijian sat with a few fox friends and dogs, mysteriously not knowing what they were doing, and the auction was not very active anyway. The auction items they put out were not worth much.
Wang Meimei glanced at him: "Don't worry about Brother Zhou and them." ”
"I don't believe it, can Zhou Shao endure this breath?" Li Xiao didn't believe that Zhou Weijian was really that honest. Aren't the most important things for them, such as face? Now that I have been slapped in the face by life, how can I bear it?
"What about you? Can you take this breath? Wang Meimei asked rhetorically.
"Of course I ......" Li Xiao puffed up his chest, as if he was going to make some bold words, but then he relaxed again, and said with a wry smile: "Sister Meimei, you don't know, my old man is stuck with me, there is nothing good to take out for auction, and there is not much money to raise the price......"
Wang Meimei glanced at him disdainfully: "Forget it, I don't plan to count on you." Alas, I wanted you to help me buy my things back, but I was really reluctant......"
Li Xiao wilted like a frosted eggplant, but Wang Meimei's glance still made him unable to hold his face no matter what, and gritted his teeth: "Okay!" Sister Meimei, I, Li Xiao, sacrificed my life to accompany the gentleman today and took out my blood capital......"
As he spoke, he took out a card from his arms and handed it to Wang Meimei, and then said pitifully: "But Sister Meimei, you must save some flowers......"
"I know, I know......" Wang Meimei said impatiently, thinking about it and smiling at him: "Little Lizi, well done, how can my sister reward you?" ”
She smiled, and the light was shining, and Li Xiao swallowed her saliva with a "grunt", and said a little breathlessly: "That...... That beautiful sister, you ...... You are free to ...... In fact, as long as ...... I'm willing to die......"
"Smack!" Wang Meimei slapped him in the head and rolled her eyes: "Useless thing, look at your virtue!" If you're not afraid of Brother Zhou, I don't mind my sister......"
At the end, Wang Meimei's voice was soft, shy, and charming, which made Li Xiao's heartbeat speed up by several beats, but when she heard the words "Brother Zhou", she still wilted: "Forget it......"
"Hee-hee-hee-hee......," Wang Meimei chuckled.
At this time, the short-haired woman from Zhou Weijian's side came over: "Meimei, Zhou Shao said, this time he can't let the surnamed Yang be proud, he plans to take out a good thing to auction." However, this thing is very precious and valuable, and it must not fall into the hands of others, you are ready, and everyone must rush to buy it back when the time comes. ”
Wang Meimei nodded: "Lingyun, don't worry, I will be ready." ”
"That's good." Lingyun glanced at Li Xiao in a charming manner, twisted her waist and turned to leave.
Li Xiao couldn't help but let go, and his saliva was about to flow out.
Wang Meimei sighed helplessly and waved her hand in front of him: "Soul back!" ”
"Sister Meimei, who is she?" Li Xiao asked with a salivating face.
"She, Wu Lingyun of the Wu family in the capital, what's wrong? Got a crush on her? Do you want my sister to introduce you? Wang Meimei said with a smile.
"Please, please!" Li Xiao gave up his hand again and again: "After the matter is completed, the little brother will be thanked!" ”
As he said that, he seemed to remember something, and took out a jade pendant from his arms: "This is a good thing, the little brother has been rewarded by a certain master, once it is done, it will be given to Sister Meimei as a thank you gift!" ”
Wang Meimei looked at it casually, and didn't care: "It doesn't matter, what do you say thank you or not." ”
"No, no, no, thank you. Also, Sister Meimei, don't underestimate this baby, it's very valuable......" He said a few words in Wang Meimei's ear.
Wang Meimei's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Wow, little Lizi, such a good thing, you actually hide it and refuse to take it out to help your sister?" Okay, let's send it up for auction first. ”
Li Xiao suddenly had a bitter face: "Sister Meimei, this can't be ......"
"Okay, okay, I'll help you buy it back when the time comes, won't I? That's it! Wang Meimei waved her hand and asked someone to send this jade pendant over, leaving Li Xiao crying and sad with a sad face, very reluctant.
When the two of them were talking, Zhou Weijian's matter over there was also discussed, his eyes looked at Li Xiao, who was talking in Wang Meimei's ear, and frowned: "What's the matter with that kid?" Wang Meimei is my eldest brother's woman......"
At this time, the short-haired woman Wu Lingyun happened to come back, and said with a smile: "What's wrong?" That's Meimei's little brother......"
"Little brother? Hmph, such a close little brother? Zhou Weijian's face was not very good-looking. The eldest brother is embarrassed, which means that he Zhou Weijian is embarrassed.
Wu Lingyun chuckled: "If Zhou Shao is not at ease, I will hook that kid over, and I will never let him deepen his relationship with Meimei!" ”
Saying that, she threw a wink: "With my means, Zhou Shao, you should rest assured, right?" ”
"You can do it, that's the best!" Zhou Weijian said something and fell silent.
Wu Lingyun also raised her eyebrows, and when she saw this, she didn't bother anymore, and quietly left Zhou Weijian's side.
At this time, the auction finally began to reach the climax stage, and slowly there were relatively high-value auction items.
"Five hundred thousand! 500,000 for the first time! ”
"Five hundred thousand for the second time!"
……
"Deal!"
"A million firsts!"
"A million for the second time!"
"Deal!"
Slowly, the number of transactions began to exceed one million. However, when these things were auctioned, Yang Chen didn't raise his head for a year, and he was not interested at all.
At this time, another lot was sent up, and the auctioneer vigorously introduced: "This is a piece of jewelry from Japan, it ...... It was donated by Miss Wang Meimei...... The reserve price of the auction is 1.5 million ......"
Yang Chen listened casually and didn't look up at all, but when he heard Wang Meimei's name, he inevitably looked up, and suddenly let out a "huh", his expression changed slightly.
