Chapter 134: Heavy Bleeding
Under the rendering of a well-spoken auctioneer, the auction is more like a game, a kind of flickering.
The cold sweat on Su Xiaodong's back came out, his career has been in full swing all these years, and he has indeed made a lot of money, but he is very vain if he really makes him spend a lot of money. After all, he broke out on his own, and every penny in his pocket is hard-earned money.
Compared with Luo Rongcheng, who was born as a wealthy man, Su Xiaodong always has a sense of inferiority complex in his heart, he doesn't want to be underestimated, he is also rich! He wants to raise his eyebrows and not let them look down on him!
But he began to struggle again, what if he bought this thing for 10 million and couldn't sell it at that time?
has come to this point, if you give up now and are taken away by the other party, won't you become a laughing stock? Like his wife and daughter, he has lost all his face!
Thinking of this, Su Xiaodong gritted his teeth and raised his hand again.
From 5 million onwards, every time you raise your hand, the bidding ladder is 200,000,
The auctioneer said excitedly, "9.2 million, it's already 9.2 million, is there a higher price than 9.2 million?" 9.2 million! 9200! Mr. 2101 bids 9.2 million! This brooch is indeed beautiful, and it is no wonder that gentlemen are fighting for it for the lady next to them! Is there anyone who offers a higher price than 9.2 million? Mr. 1101, would you like to continue bidding? ”
The auctioneer directly called Ming Lei's name, wishing that Ming Lei would increase the price, the auction money is a charity fund, but the auctioneer can also get a commission!
The other guests in the audience were whispering to the people around them, this auction was very exciting, just the first lot opened, and the competition was in dire straits.
Now there is probably no one who doesn't know the new faces of the Su family, first the wife and daughter who behaved rudely and rudely in public, and then the husband's urgent bidding.
Su Xiaodong thought that he was holding up the sign very much, but the guests could see that he was under tremendous pressure every time he raised his hand. He tried his best to prove himself, but from the moment he appeared with his wife and daughter, it was already a joke in the eyes of others.
"9.4 million!" Minglei continued to increase the price.
Su Xiaodong's breath was a little unstable.
On the stage, the auctioneer continued to demagogue, "Is there anything more than 9.4 million?" If no one bids, this brooch will belong to Mr. 1101, 9.4 million once, 9.4 million twice......"
Everyone looked at the Su family.
Su Zimu's heart was tight, "Dad, the price is too high, forget it, we don't want it!" ”
"Shut up, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, this is an investment, we have done good deeds, and with a good name, we haven't lost yet!" Xu Zhizhi scolded his daughter.
Like Su Xiaodong, she is unwilling, and she wants to get her face back when she appears on this occasion for the first time!
There was no turning back from the bow, Su Xiaodong raised his hand again,
"9.6 million! Mr. 2101 bids 9.6 million! "The auctioneer's voice is particularly loud!
Zhao Zhenfang saw the numbers on the screen and sneered in her heart, it seems that Su Xiaodong is really rich, the child is right, his money should not be in vain, 50,000 yuan per month, and it will be less!
Ye Tang didn't care about the auction process at all, she kept her head down to eat, she was a little hungry.
She heard Qiu Xia say to Shangguan Jian, "I don't think this brooch costs 10 million, and the color of that piece of jade seems to be fake." ”
Qiu Xia's voice was very small, and it was the kind of volume that said bad things behind his back.
"It's worth it or not, it's all for charity," Shangguanjian shifted the topic.
Ye Tang raised her head and carefully observed the jewelry on the screen, and the more she looked, the more she felt like a fake.
Ming Lei didn't mind this amount of money and wanted to continue bidding, Mrs. Ming took his hand, "Forget it, we don't fight with him, I don't particularly like brooches, there must be better things behind." ”
Ming Xue said coldly, "Who wears a brooch in this era, the style of this brooch is a bit earthy, and my mother doesn't look good when she wears it." ”
Since his wife and children don't like it, of course Ming Lei chose to stop fighting.
The auctioneer's sharp eyes saw what the Ming family meant, and he struck the hammer heavily, "This brooch now belongs to Mr. 2101, congratulations, at a price of 9.6 million, get this antique jewelry of the Republic of China, and add new objects to your wife's jewelry room!" ”
As the organizer of the auction and a senior philanthropist, Luo Rongcheng hoped to raise as much money as possible, so he immediately stood up and took the lead in applauding, picked up the microphone and said, "Mr. Su won the first prize tonight, your kindness is worth remembering, I represent the XX Foundation and XX Love Organization...... Thank you for your selfless donation. ”
The audience burst into thunderous applause.
Su Xiaodong barely squeezed out a smile.
He was very impulsive, but Luo Rongcheng made a statement in public, which made him feel better, and he felt that his "hemorrhage" was valuable.
A staff member walked up to him, bowed down and asked, "Mr. Su, which payment method do you choose?" Online bank transfer, cheque or on-site card swiping? ”
Su Xiaodong's temples jumped suddenly, "I have to pay the full amount tonight?!" ”
"Yes."
Unlike those large-scale commodity auctions, where the subject matter is tens of millions or hundreds of millions, the subject matter of charity auctions is at most in the early 10 millions, usually between hundreds of thousands and millions.
All the rich people who are ready to donate have prepared this money in advance, and there is no delay in arrears.
The problem is that Su Xiaodong decided to participate in the auction temporarily! I was angry to chase such a high price!
Su Xiaodong called the staff aside and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Can you pay in installments?" ”
The staff was surprised.
......
The auction continues, with fine jewelry not only brooches, but also pearl earrings, diamond necklaces...... It is all the treasures of Gu Yulan's pressing box, and naturally it is also very popular with other wives, and the auction is in full swing, but no item has been fried to a price of more than 5 million.
Everything went well, and the 9th and penultimate lot of the night was presented, which was quite large, square, and covered with a cloth.
Everyone thought it was an antique, a vase, a bronze or something like that,
Unexpectedly, when the auctioneer lifted the cloth, it was a very old computer.
"This is UYX's first personal computer launched 40 years ago, with a 9-inch monochrome display, a word processing program, an 8-megahertz processor, and 128KB of memory, as well as a 3.5-inch floppy disk drive, which was sold at $3,500 that year and starts at $35,000 today." ”
The auctioneer's tone is still passionate, and the tone is frustrated, but the guests in the audience are all lacking in interest, and the electronic products are updated very quickly, not to mention the things that have been eliminated forty years ago and four years ago, who still uses them in their hands? This thing is no better than an antique, it is not beautiful at home at all, and it also takes up space, like garbage.
Ye Tang sat up straight, with some interest in his eyes, and Dong Qianqiu, who was a few tables away, also touched his bidding card.
