Chapter 91: The Auction Begins
Hearing his roar and the threat behind him, Song Su was completely silenced and returned to normal.
Ying Heng glanced at him, his face was full of helplessness, then he turned his head away, no longer paying attention to Song Su, and the entire private room suddenly became extremely silent.
After a while, Song Su blinked, looked at Ying Heng and said, "Your Highness, you won't really remove me from the position of governor, will you?"
"If you bother me again, it's true. Ying Heng looked at him with gloomy eyes.
Song Su stuck out his tongue, immediately shrank aside to drink tea, and stopped talking, for fear of annoying Ying Heng, and really removed him from his position as governor.
Seeing that he was completely honest this time, Ying Heng turned his head and stopped looking at him.
After Gu Ziqing came out of Ying Heng's private room, he went to arrange a series of things for the auction.
When the hour came, Gu Ziqing ordered someone to ring the gong, and then the deafening sound of the gong immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.
The hall, which was still noisy, immediately became silent, waiting for the auction to begin.
Gu Rongzhan walked up to the stage in his robe, arched his hand to everyone, and then made a speech, and then announced the official start of the auction.
"The first piece in this auction is a shark pearl from the West Sea, which is said to have been produced only in 500 years. ”
With the introduction of the master of ceremonies, the Xihai shark bead was carried up, and everyone looked up, all of them showed surprise.
I saw that this shark pearl was about the size of a palm, the whole body was milky white, but the surface was smooth and shiny, shining, just by looking at it, you knew that this is an extraordinary thing.
In fact, there have always been legends about this shark pearl, but very few people have seen its true face.
But fortunately, some people here today recognized this thing, and they could see at a glance that this shark pearl was absolutely real, and it spread among the crowd, so that this auction had just begun, and it had reached its peak.
"The price of the West Sea Shark Pearl starts at 5,000 taels and the auction begins. ”
At the order of the master of ceremonies, the people below immediately followed frantically, and in an instant, the whole hall was noisy again.
This shark pearl is not only rare to see, but also priceless, and the starting price at this auction today is already very low, who wouldn't want to pick up a big bargain?
However, because everyone had this idea, in the end, this cheap Xihai shark pearl was auctioned for a high price of 5 million taels.
Gu Ziqing sat in the private room, looking at the scene below, he couldn't help but show a faint smile on his face, now that the first collection has come up with such a high price, it is really a good start!
Similarly, Ying Heng, who was sitting in the private room on the other side, couldn't help but have a smile on his face after hearing the noise outside.
This Gu Ziqing really surprised him again, Ying Heng didn't expect that at this auction, she would come up with such a collection, and everyone present was immediately stunned.
It's just that Ying Heng suddenly remembered another question, Gu Ziqing's first collection took out the West Sea Shark Pearl, so how did she continue next?
After seeing this collection, everyone has great hopes for the following collection, and if the next things are far inferior to the first one, it will be worse.
However, when the second collection was taken out, Ying Heng knew that all the worries he had just had were superfluous.
Because the second collection is even more precious than the first, it is a gold silk soft armor handed down by a great general of the previous dynasty.
If this golden silk soft armor is worn on the body, it is invulnerable, invulnerable, and it is really a peerless thing to save life.
It's just that this golden silk soft armor has disappeared twenty years ago, and no one knows where it goes, so how can it appear here today?
Thinking of this, Ying Heng looked at Gu Ziqing's eyes, and gradually became profound, it seems that this girl has a lot of secrets hidden in her body, and the Gu family is not to be underestimated, she can even get such a mysterious thing, it is really unusual.
And this also confirms Ying Heng's original guess that Gu Ziqing is definitely not as ordinary as she seems on the surface, she definitely has a deep and deep secret, which also makes Ying Heng completely determined to dig out the things behind Gu Ziqing.
While he was thinking to himself, the bidding below had reached a white-hot level, and finally a sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked businessman auctioned this golden silk soft armor at a price of seven million taels, which aroused the envy of everyone.
And there are some voices among them, lamenting that the Gu family's wealth is rich and hidden, and they have even released two excellent collections for them to auction one after another.
Thinking that this auction has just begun, it has received more than 10 million taels, even if it is not carried out further, it will be a proper success, and the future reputation of the Gu family will be restless because of this auction.
The next series of collections, all of which are comparable to the South China Sea shark pearls and gold silk soft armor, are treasures that they have only heard of and have not seen over the years.
After all the auctions were completed, the money received was simply astronomical, and everyone present also had a hearty feeling.
There is no such thing as Gu Rongzhan said before, the idea of feeling a loss, everyone feels that they have picked up a big bargain, and even more because they did not photograph the collection, they are so angry that they are like thunder.
Gu Rongzhan sat next to Gu Ziqing, touching his beard, and looking at this scene on the first floor with a smile, there has never been a time when he was happier than now.
Gu Ziqing glanced at his father, and then deliberately asked, "How is the father doing with his daughter's matter?
"Yes, yes, it's just wonderful. Gu Rongzhan smiled from ear to ear, and even the corners of his eyes had a few more wrinkles, "It's just Qingqing, how did you come up with the idea of using an auction to raise money for charity?"
"Because you said at the time that the reason why these merchants don't want to donate money is because it's their own money, and after they donate, they don't get anything. Gu Ziqing explained, "So I came up with this trick." ”
"Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds to open an auction that allows them to obediently take out their money, and at the same time allows everyone to get things to soothe their souls, so that people will not feel that they have spent money in vain?"
"Qingqing, it's really smart, such a good way, why didn't you think of it for your father?" Gu Rongzhan couldn't help but praise, "Fortunately, this matter is handed over to you, otherwise you will die of worry for your husband." ”
