Because of this bet, the atmosphere of the auction party suddenly reached a climax. Almost everyone got excited. In fact, these people in the "upper class" are not interested in this kind of thing, and they have long been accustomed to these things. As for the bets, five million is not scary either. What really interested everyone was those two slaps. Everyone has heard of the term face slap, but such a straightforward face slap is really the first time I have seen it in public.

In fact, since everyone can enter the circle of "high society", they always have to pretend to be gentlemen, and they can't do this kind of thing like slapping in public, and they don't bother to do it.

But when everyone thinks about Li Xiaoning's identity as a nouveau riche, they are all relieved. Nouveau riche, always mentioned with vulgarity and inferiority. Although Li Xiaoning is handsome on the outside, he is just a rude nouveau riche in his bones.

So in the excitement and anticipation of everyone, the auction began again.

Li Xiaoning sat calmly and calmly, and Yang Haisheng was also confident. Li Xiaoning sees it well, Yang Haisheng is actually a very rational person, he has always disliked to fight uncertain battles, and their family's industry has been managed by him in recent years. Yang Haisheng brought a card of his own, and there was a deposit of 10 million in the card. In addition, there is also a Yuntong Centurion black gold card, how much overdraft limit this card has, Yang Haisheng does not know, theoretically it can be unlimited overdraft. But of course, it is impossible to really have an unlimited overdraft, but at least there is a limit of 10 million.

Therefore, now that Yang Haisheng can use as much as 20 million funds, he is naturally confident.

The first lot after the auction restarted was a painting by Tang Bohu, but the content of this painting was not very high-level, and it was a painting of flowers in the backyard under the moon, that is, a picture of the Spring Palace. The starting price is 300,000.

The host praised the work in beautiful language. Someone in the crowd immediately showed excitement. So as soon as the host's voice fell, someone immediately began to shout the offer impatiently, and the voices came and went.

"Three hundred and fifty thousand"

"Four Hundred Thousand"

"Four hundred and fifty thousand"

"Half a Million"

"600,000"

Before the two protagonists of the bet opened their mouths, the price had already doubled.

"A million!" Yang Haisheng quoted first. He actually has no interest in antiques, but he wants to donate to the organizing committee anyway, and it doesn't matter what he shoots, as long as he spends more money than Li Xiaoning.

Li Xiaoning smiled lightly, he had already seen that this painting was actually a fake. It is estimated that the organizing committee also knows about this situation, otherwise it would not have only set a low price of 300,000 yuan.

Li Xiaoning knows the goods, but there are many people who don't know the goods, so although Li Xiaoning didn't open his mouth to shout the price, there are others to help raise the price. But when the price exceeds one and a half thousand, the offer quickly becomes slow and hesitant.

Tang Bohu's paintings are indeed valuable, and when Sotheby's New York held a special auction of ancient Chinese paintings and calligraphy, Tang Bohu's vertical scroll "Viewing the Waterfall of Lushan Mountain" started at 300 million US dollars, and after 120 rounds of bidding, it was finally sold at a sky-high price of 590 million US dollars (about 3.59 billion yuan). But Tang Bohu has countless paintings in his life, and if you add imitations, there are even more innumerable. In fact, the valuable ones are those famous pictures that circulate in an orderly manner, and the other general paintings are generally priced at three or five million.

As for Tang Bohu's spring palace picture, it is even less valuable. This talented man was forced by life, and the most he painted was the Spring Palace picture. As the saying goes, rare things are expensive, and if there are more, they will naturally be worthless, not to mention that the spring palace picture has no literary value. Therefore, the price of Tang Bohu's spring palace map is generally five or six hundred thousand square feet. And this Spring Palace picture that is being auctioned is only two square feet, and the price of 1.2 million is basically the top price, which is still the price of the real work.

The people present are also people in the upper class, and they may not be able to distinguish between truth and falsehood, but they still have the ability to make value judgments, so when they call 1.2 million, everyone is not very enthusiastic.

"One and a half million!" Li Xiaoning indifferently shouted out a price that made the audience silent for a short time.

Li Xiaoning knew that this painting was a fake, but this was the first lot, and it had additional significance, and Li Xiaoning wanted to use it to take the lead, so he was bound to get this painting.

The audience was silent, and finally this fake Spring Palace picture fell into Li Xiaoning's hands. Li Xiaoning just ordered: "Let's put it aside first." The meeting will be handed over to the organizing committee. "There was no more follow-up, and I didn't even look at this 1.5 million bought thing.

Yang Haisheng, who was not far away, gritted his teeth, and his hand pinched the armrests of the seat so that they were deformed. His bid just now had reached 1.3 million, which was actually not far from Li Xiaoning, but he just didn't dare to increase the price again, for fear that Li Xiaoning would shrink and put himself on the table.

It wasn't until the host announced that the auction was successful that he suddenly remembered that he would be afraid! Made a mistake that shouldn't have been made. In fact, it doesn't matter how much this thing is auctioned, anyway, it will be donated to the organizing committee in the end, the important thing is that the money you pay cannot be less than Li Xiaoning!

At this moment, Li Xiaoning's eyes looked over, and then he said in a voice that was not big or small, just enough for some people to hear: "Mr. Yang Haishen, it's still too late to admit defeat, and the loss can still be controlled." ”

Yang Haisheng was no longer able to correct Li Xiaoning's messy names for himself, he just gritted his teeth and replied: "This is just the beginning!" ”

In the next auction, Yang Haisheng made a decisive attack, and sure enough, he won many times, and he was in high spirits for a while. After several rounds of auctions, he temporarily led Li Xiaoning with 4.2 million to 3.8 million.

After the first lot, Li Xiaoning suddenly became cautious, and the highest bid was only two or three percent higher than the reasonable price. But even so, benefiting from taking the first picture of Tang Bohu's Spring Palace, Li Xiaoning spent only 400,000 less than Yang Haisheng.

When a trapiche emerald was put up as a heavyweight bargaining chip for the auction, the auction entered the second round of climax.

Yang Haisheng and Li Xiaoning took turns bidding, almost staged a tragic scene, after more than a dozen rounds of repeated bidding, Yang Haisheng successfully auctioned this gem at a sky-high price of 4.8 million yuan, which is actually only worth about 800,000 yuan!

Yang Haisheng stood up on the spot, swung his fist hard, and let out an extremely painful roar! At the same time, he threw an obvious provocative glance at Li Xiaoning.

Li Xiaoning turned a blind eye, just smiled faintly, and drank the red wine in the glass very elegantly, at this moment his appearance did not look like an upstart at all, more like a real British nobleman.

Behind the trapiche emerald is a pink sapphire white gold necklace with a simple and vivid design, soft and slender lines, full of elegant sensuality.

As soon as this necklace was put out, Li Xiaoning turned his attention to Jenny, Jenny was pink today, and this necklace just matched her.

So in this round of bidding, Li Xiaoning once again attacked with a posture of giving up on me, and finally auctioned off the necklace at a high price of 5 million. This suddenly made Yang Haisheng's little heart tremble. Li Xiaoning has already spent 8.8 million, which is not far from the upper limit of Li Xiaoning's funds estimated by Yang Haisheng. But looking at Li Xiaoning's calm and relaxed appearance, Yang Haisheng couldn't help but panic, and he suddenly realized that he might have underestimated Li Xiaoning.

However, Li Xiaoning's next move made Yang Haisheng almost collapse. Because Li Xiaoning got up and went over to take the necklace, then walked straight to Jenny, smiled and said, "Give it to you." ”

Jenny has been in high society for a long time, so she naturally knows how well this necklace matches her, and she is also a woman, even women have no resistance to jewelry, her eyes immediately became hazy, but she did not dare to reach out to take this necklace. Because this necklace just cost Li Xiaoning five million. Five million is not very scary, but it is definitely a huge amount of money.

Jenny just wanted to say no, but she didn't know who suddenly shouted, "Together." ”

So someone immediately responded and shouted "Together." ”

"Together."

"Together."

……

Jenny's rare blush. The reason for her blushing was not everyone's coaxing, but that she found that she really had such a feeling for Li Xiaoning in her heart. The sensation made her heat up and made her blush.

"If you don't take it again, I guess they'll keep shouting." Li Xiaoning said with a smile.

In desperation, Jenny swallowed the words she wanted to refuse, and took the necklace with a red face.

The applause of the crowd immediately rang out.

Cheng Xiaoxi, who was sitting next to Yang Haisheng, turned pale, biting his lower lip tightly, and he was about to bite his lip with great strength.

Before Li Xiaoning could return to his seat, Yang Haisheng had already blushed and shouted, "I protest!" ”

"What are you protesting against?" Li Xiaoning asked lightly.

"When we made a bet, all the items we won were donated to the organizing committee, but you gave this one to Miss Jenny. You're in violation. Yang Haisheng said eloquently.

"Did I mention that this necklace was counted in our bet?" Li Xiaoning blocked Yang Haisheng back with a word.

Li Xiaoning's meaning is obvious, this necklace is not included in the total amount of his bet with Yang Haisheng. That is, he doesn't care about the five million at all. This made Yang Haisheng's heart beat violently immediately, and he now found that he not only underestimated Li Xiaoning, but also underestimated it very much.

In the next auction, Li Xiaoning was as calm and calm as ever, made repeated moves, and continued to make gains, and the money spent in the gambling contract was as high as 11.6 million, only 400,000 yuan away from Yang Haisheng. And in addition to the two gifts given to Jenny before, at tonight's auction, Li Xiaoning has already spent more than 18 million yuan, which is not an exaggeration to describe it as burning money.
