Chapter 18: Don't Push
Taking the number plate handed over from Qi Cong's hand, Chu Xi asked without even raising his head, "What is Sun Delong's number?" ”
"Brother Chu, No. 54."
Chu Xi nodded, still playing with his mobile phone with his head down, the auction was not attractive to him, it was better to chat with Li Mo on WeChat for a while.
"Xiaomo, can I go to your house to sleep tonight?"
"Absolutely."
"Really? Then I'll clean up and go to your room to sleep after the auction is over. ”
"Okay, you come to sleep in my room, I'll sleep in your room."
Depend on!
And here's how it works!
Just when Chu Xi and Li Mo were chatting for a while, the auction had already reached the fifth item.
"The next thing to be auctioned is an incense burner."
"It is said that this incense burner is a master's funeral goods, there is a wonderful use of the town house to drive away evil spirits and keep peace, bosses I think there are a lot of strange things that I usually encounter, this incense burner is definitely worth having."
"The starting price is one million, and the price increase is not less than 100,000 each time."
As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, there were not a few people in the venue who began to hold up signs.
Almost all of the people present are boss-level figures, and they will definitely seek peace of mind when they usually do a project or something.
This incense burner is also the master's funeral goods, and it should be a great Buddha and Bodhisattva to worship, and they naturally like it.
It didn't take long for the price of the incense burner to be auctioned for four million.
Four million is not a low price for an incense burner.
"Okay, No. 54 bid 4.5 million! Do you still have any price increases? ”
Suddenly, there was a sharp increase of 500,000, and everyone at the venue looked in the direction of the auctioneer's hand.
It turned out to be Sun Delong, and the others who originally wanted to fight for it put out the fire one after another.
If you really want to compete, not to mention the competition, it will offend Sun Delong.
"Four and a half million once!"
"Four and a half million twice!"
"Four million five million three ......"
When he heard the bid of No. 54, Chu Xi stopped playing with his mobile phone and raised his number plate at the moment when the auctioneer was about to drop the hammer.
"Okay, the No. 66 here bids 4.6 million!"
Chu Xi's sudden price increase attracted the attention of the audience.
They all wanted to see who this person who dared to take the tiger's mouth was who.
"It turned out to be him!"
"I'm going to have a good show today."
"I'm afraid there's going to be a big showdown today."
Sun Delong frowned and looked at Chu Xi who was sitting in front of him, he didn't know if this was Chu Xi's meaning or Qi Cong's meaning.
This Chu Xi appeared too suddenly, since he disappeared eight years ago, he has evaporated like nothing in the past eight years, and no matter how Sun Delong investigates, he can't find a trace of him.
Raised the number plate in his hand again, this time Sun Delong also increased the price, he wanted to see how Chu Xi reacted.
But Chu Xi just raised his cards and increased the price.
Slowly, the two raised signs to each other and raised the price of the incense burner to five million.
The last time to raise the card was Chu Xi's five million.
This time, Sun Delong did not follow the price increase, and with the auctioneer's hammer, the incense burner was finally owned by Chu Xi.
Everyone present whispered.
"What did this young man come to do, he really pressed Sun Delong."
"Maybe it's a rich kid somewhere else, don't you see that Qi is always sitting next to him?"
"Maybe it's what Mr. Qi meant, there have been a lot of small frictions between Sun Delong and Mr. Qi in the past two years."
"I don't think so, this kid may be stunned, and the money will start to float when he has two dollars, Sun Delong has been in Linhai for so many years, if he really wants it, a small incense burner is not yet handy."
There are different opinions, although there are those who are optimistic about Chu Xi, but Sun Delong's prestige over the years has penetrated into their hearts.
After taking a picture of this incense burner, Chu Xi took out his mobile phone again and began to chat with Li Mo, five million was not even a drop in the bucket for him.
As time went on, the people in the venue slowly discovered that something was wrong.
The young man at No. 66 didn't seem to care about what was auctioned at all, but as long as Sun Delong made a bid, he would follow the price every time, and he would always only pay a price.
You say he has money, he only pays a fixed price at a time.
You say he doesn't have any money, he can get a fixed price every time.
And he seems to have come specifically for Sun Delong, from the beginning of the auction to the present, Sun Delong has not successfully auctioned an item.
Next up for auction is the penultimate piece of the auction – a 19-carat pink diamond."
"The auction venue has found someone to appraise it, and the purity is quite high, with a starting price of 15 million, and each increase in price shall not be less than 1 million."
When the pink diamond was displayed at the venue, the audience was in an uproar.
Diamonds are not uncommon, but fancy coloured diamonds are rare, and pink diamonds are extremely rare.
Such a 19-carat pink diamond is worth at least hundreds of millions!
There were also many women in the venue, and they looked at the pink diamonds on the display table with yearning looks.
No woman can resist the allure of that pink diamond.
"Husband~ what do people want......"
The wife of a pot-bellied boss shook the fat boss's arm coquettishly.
"If you want it, you want a hair, just take a look."
The conversation between the two sparked a burst of laughter in the small circle around them.
But the women present probably all had this idea in their hearts.
Even Yu Linglong looked at the pink diamond with a blurred eyes.
"I want the pink diamond."
Chu Xi suddenly spoke.
He hasn't given Li Mo a decent thing yet, and if he proposes, he also needs a diamond ring.
This time, Chu Xi did not wait for Sun Delong to quote first, but took the lead in raising the number plate in his hand.
"Okay, No. 66 was the first to bid fifteen million."
Seeing the abnormal Chu Xi, the people in the venue realized that this was for the beautiful woman.
With such a great god here, the Li family is afraid to rise!
Sun Delong saw Chu Xi's actions in the rear, and the corners of his mouth showed a sinister.
Boy, it's time for me to play with you.
Following Chu Xi's offer, Sun Delong also raised the number plate in his hand.
"Good! Number 54 bids sixteen million! ”
A faint smile hung on the corner of Chu Xi's mouth, Sun Delong's increase in price was a reason, whether it was from the value of the pink diamond or the fact that he wanted to save face for himself, he had a reason to bid.
But everyone else in the room gave up on the no pink diamond, knowing that this war was none of their business.
"Fifty million."
Chu Xi quoted again, different from the past, this time directly raised the price to 50 million.
Sun Delong didn't hesitate too much, and then raised the number plate.
"100 million."
When Chu Xi raised the number plate in his hand for the third time, the price had already been raised to 100 million in two or three rounds.
"Oh my God! That's a big deal! ”
There was an uproar in the venue.
They were even more curious about Chu Xi's identity.
The smile on the corner of Sun Delong's mouth became more obvious.
"One hundred million and one million."
"Brother Chu, do you want me to come?"
Qi Cong asked Chu Xi after hearing Sun Delong's offer.
Chu Xi shook his head and raised the number plate in his hand again.
"One hundred and fifty million."
This has reached the value that this pink diamond deserves.
Everyone in the venue wanted to see if Sun Delong would follow the price again.
The smell of gunpowder in the field is full.
"Follow, Sun Delong raised his card!"
The auctioneer also saw the competition between the two families, and there was no intention of raising a hammer at all, and when one finished reporting, he would stare at the other.
"Okay, No. 54 bid 151 million! I wonder if this little brother will follow? ”
Chu Xi didn't even hesitate and raised the number plate in his hand again.
"Two hundred million!"
The auctioneer was dizzy when he heard Chu Xi's offer, he didn't expect this young man to be so arrogant.
The price has reached 200 million!
The higher the price of an auction item, the more money their auctioneer will take.
So auctioneers are generally very good at making trouble.
"No. 66 bid again to raise the price to 200 million, and then it depends on whether No. 54 will continue to follow the price!"
At this point, Sun Delong is a little difficult to ride a tiger.
The pink diamond has almost reached its peak of 150 million.
But what the auctioneer said made him very uncomfortable, and if he didn't make a move, he would definitely lose face.
But if he makes a move...... That little bastard would make him even more uncomfortable if he tricked himself.
After thinking about it carefully, Sun Delong said loudly: "Since Little Brother Chu is bound to get this pink diamond, then it is not easy for my Sun to win people's love, it is better to fulfill Little Brother Chu." ”
Sun Delong's words made the faces of everyone in the venue stunned.
I've never seen such a thick skin.
And Chu Xi didn't save face for Sun Delong at all.
I saw him grinning and said, "First, you are not qualified to call me a brother." Second, I don't need you to fulfill me. ”
"If you have money, you will increase the price, and if you don't have money, you should not force it."
