Chapter 226: Auction (4)
The lights on the stage dim, leaving only a beam of light on Fluttershy, the auction's host, who smiles and lifts a red cloth from the table with her left hand, revealing a black stone in the light.
"The first collection of today's auction is this stone, of course, it is not an ordinary stone, but an extraterrestrial meteorite, its length is 41 centimeters, the width is 18 centimeters, the weight is 5460 grams, after identification, this stone has a single composition, contains a large amount of iron elements, the purity is very high, combined with this characteristic, we judge that it is a relatively rare extraterrestrial meteorite, and such a large block, it is even more rare, here is the appraisal certificate issued by our auction house, false one penalty ten, credit guarantee. Well, now the auction will begin, the price is one million, and each increase must not be less than fifty thousand. Fluttershy's sweet voice fills the room, and the large screen on the stage begins to display a panoramic photograph of the meteorite and a detailed caption.
As soon as Fluttershy finishes speaking, the lights in Box 3 come on. The VIP in the box only needs to press the set button, which is equivalent to a sign for the guests in the ordinary area, or you can enter the auction price first and then press the button, so that the auctioneer can see your offer.
And it was Dr. Jin Chengjin who had just pressed the button, he didn't expect that the first auction item in the auction was the extraterrestrial meteorite that he had always wanted but didn't find, and it was a huge one, enough to refine a flying sword.
Although Jin Cheng didn't look shocked on the surface, in fact, there were already stormy waves in his heart, too surprised, too surprised! He had only one thought, to take this piece of extraterrestrial meteorite at any cost.
"Okay, the VIP bid in Box 3 is 1.05 million." The auctioneer's voice was slightly disappointed, and he glanced at the No. 3 box with resentment.
"What is her expression, shouldn't I bid?" Jin Cheng scratched his head and asked Ni Shan beside him puzzled.
"Be reserved, you are now sitting in the VIP box, you have to be a little graceful, wait for others to make the first move, generally speaking, we don't look down on these big families in front of us, even if you want it, you have to bid about it, and then you do it." Otherwise, as soon as you shout the price, others can only stare dryly. Although Ni Shan has never been to this auction house, she still understands some of the rules inside, and she can only explain them.
"This ...... I...... I really don't understand, so that's what happened, so I'll increase the price a little more. Jin Cheng said with a little embarrassment.
"If others don't increase the price, you can't increase the price yourself, forget it, it's not a big deal, just pay attention to it later." Ni Shan just explained to Jin Cheng, she didn't take this kind of trivial matter to heart at all, she glanced at Jin Cheng a little strangely and said, "You still like to collect strange stones?" ”
"Hey, a little hobby." Jin Cheng said with a smile.
Ni Shan shook her head and didn't speak again.
"1.05 million, is there anything higher than this price?" The auctioneer experienced a short period of emotional fluctuations, and then recovered her state, shouting hard, although she knew that there was no hope, the auction house estimated the transaction price of this piece of extraterrestrial meteorite at 1.5 million, below this number, she had no commission to take, and now she was just doing her best to obey the destiny of heaven and make the last effort.
"1.05 million for the first time." Fluttershy's auctioneer pauses for a few seconds, and when she sees that no one is bidding, she has to go to the final procedure.
"1,050,000 second ......"
"Okay, the VIP in Box 1 bid 1.1 million." The auctioneer shouted happily. The auctioneer is most afraid of losing the auction, and the second is afraid that no one will bid, and it is a good thing that someone has come forward now, not to mention the VIP box with similar strength, and there will definitely be a good show next.
Ni Shan's brows furrowed, and she asked the waiter, "Who is in the Jing family in the box?" ”
"It's Young Master Jing Hongye and an elder of the Jing family." The waiter replied in a whisper.
Ni Shan's brows furrowed even deeper, and at this moment, Jin Cheng pressed the auction button again.
"1.15 million."
"1.2 million."
The other party bids again, of course Jin Cheng will not show weakness, he is bound to get this item, even if he throws all the funds, even if he can't get it for the time being, he will find another way. What about the Jing family? How can the first ancient martial family in China be capable?
……
"2 million."
"3 million." After a few minutes, Jin Cheng didn't bother to spend it with the other party, and directly raised the price to three million.
The auctioneer turned from the initial excitement to uneasiness, the first collection let the two families pinch, this is not a good phenomenon, there is a feeling that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, she silently prayed in her heart: just like that, don't increase the price again.
It's a pity that her wish was disappointed, and the Jing family hardly hesitated to turn on the lights again, 3.05 million.
"5 million." While bidding, Jin Cheng let go of his consciousness and observed a young man in the No. 1 box holding a cigar in his mouth, leaning on the sofa with a smug smile on his face. The other old man sat with his eyes slightly closed and sat upright, as if he didn't care about the outside world.
Just as the young man reached for the auction button, the old man spat out two words: enough.
The young man pursed his lips and withdrew his right hand unsatisfied, "Seventh Grandpa, I just want to teach Ni Shan's girl a lesson, she actually mixed with other men, you know, she is my fiancée." ”
"It's just two ordinary young people, how can the Ni family look at it, you are unfounded and have no confidence in yourself, you can only make Ni Shan more disgusted by doing this." The old man slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of light.
The young man is the first day of the new generation of the Jing family, Jing Hongye, who is only twenty-five years old, and his cultivation has reached the consummation of the middle stage of dark energy, and he may break through to the late stage of dark energy at any time. The Jing family spared no effort in his cultivation, needless to say, the tilt of resources, and the protection of him was also all-round, the old man he called the 'Seventh Grandfather' was a martial artist in the late stage of Huajin, as long as he came out of the Jing family compound, the old man must be around Jing Hongye, inseparable.
And the Jing family and the Ni family have long had a marriage contract, Jing Hongye and Ni Shan, the golden boy and girl in the eyes of others, will get married during the Mid-Autumn Festival in the coming year.
But Jing Hongye is in Ni Shan's eyes, except for his cultivation, which can be said to be reasonable, and everything else is useless. In the capital, there are four evils on the surface, and Jing Hongye is not on the list, but the four evils are not enough to do bad things alone.
A year ago, he did bad things, was retaliated by the enemy, and almost died in a nightclub, after that, the family grounded him and punished him, even if he had to go out, he was also sent to focus on protection.
In the past year, he has rarely shown his face, and it is rare to come to the auction today to join in the fun, but he saw Ni Shan talking happily with other men, Jing Hongye is not good to condemn Ni Shan in person, so he can only use this way to vent his dissatisfaction.
