Chapter 69, Auction Conference
Only a moment passed, but the results of the appraisal came out.
"You've been waiting for a long time." A white-haired old man walked out of it, holding a list in his hand, and handed it to Ding Xiu, who stood up: "Behind the goods is the valuation we give, you can take a look, are you still satisfied?" ”
"Venom gland of the death worm, 5000 brie; The queen ant's gastropod 3500 Brie ...... "The prices listed on the list are clear at a glance, although Ding Xiu and they don't know what these things are worth, but the numbers on the list still look very exciting."
"Satisfied." Gu Beimo said.
The old man smiled and introduced himself: "Old Yan Zhang, a biological appraiser at Guardian Auction House. ”
"My name is Ding Xiu, and we are all from other places."
"I've been working here for nearly ten years, and I thought I was well-informed, but what you brought me still opened my eyes again." Yan Zhang said, looking at Ding Xiu and the others' eyes with blazing eyes, "I take the liberty of asking, where did the three of them get these things?" ”
"To the west, the Karakum Desert." Ding Xiu said.
"Both the Death Worm and the Mutant Bullet Ant Queen?" Yan Zhang asked again.
"It's all right, it took a lot of effort to kill them." Ding Xiu didn't hide anything from this.
The old man in front of him was quick and spoke kindly, and the valuation given by the key was far beyond expectations, and he had won the favor of the three of them in just a few words.
Yan Zhang's eyebrows were raised, the surprise in his eyes flashed, and then he touched his gray beard again, and said: "Since ancient times, heroes have come out of youth, and the ancients have not deceived me. Your sample is relatively biased, and you have to rely on some luck to meet a buyer who knows the goods, so let's wait for the auction if it is not good to sell, the old man will introduce you to a noble person to help you carry it down, okay? ”
"Okay, okay." When Gu Beimo heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. The goods in the auction also have a certain probability of being unsold, but with Yan Zhang's words, it is a sure thing that the goods will be sold today.
"Grandpa, you're such a good person." Shen You's mouth was exceptionally sweet at this moment.
"Haha." Yan Zhang stroked his beard and laughed, and the little girl's praise amused him.
"If the goods can be sold smoothly today, the three of us will also have a small gift to thank the old gentleman." Gu Beimo knew that there was no help in vain in the world, and people would throw peaches, and he had to hurry up to report to Li.
"It's not going to be done." Yan Zhang stretched out his hand to stop his words and said, "When I help you with this, I am actually helping others. Moreover, I work as a biological appraiser at Guardian Auction House, and the money given by the owner over the years is enough for me to live for a few lifetimes, and it is discrediting to take the money of customers in private. ”
"That's right." Gu Beimo didn't know if Yan Zhang was fake polite or really high-spirited, but there were some things that were difficult to say here. When he got the money after the auction, he still planned to make a good statement.
When you go out, you make money, but you get married. This Yan Zhang seems to have a high status in Guardian Auction House, and he is the object that Gu Beimo wants to get acquainted with.
"Alright, you guys take the list, hurry up to the auction, the conference will start in a quarter of an hour." Yan Zhang said with a smile: "I will arrange for your goods to be sent to the auction site immediately, and someone will arrange the serial number on the other side of the exhibition, remember that the list must be taken, this is a certificate." ”
"Thank you, Elder Yan." After Ding Xiu and the three of them thanked him, they returned to the door and were led to the No. 19 private box by the staff waiting there.
The passages to each private box are separated, and this arrangement is mainly to avoid the auctioneers from knowing each other and knowing the box number where the other party is located, and in the auction process, the two sides bid to hurt the harmony. Therefore, the separate passages do not know who is in the other private boxes, and even if the bidding is too fierce, there is no worry.
Come to Box 19, which is five or six meters high from the audience seats below. The open windows of the box face the auction table below, with an excellent view.
All the boxes are located on the side facing the auction table, which is designed to take into account both the view factor and the privacy of the auctioneer. There is no glass in the windows, but there are partitions between the boxes, so that no matter what the people in the boxes say inside, they don't have to worry about being heard by the people around the boxes or the audience below.
The three of them sat down inside, and the attendant who led the way told them the rules of the place.
"There is a button in front of the three of you, and if your favorite lot is exhibited in the audience, after the auctioneer shouts, you can bid through this button, and finally the auction will be won by the highest bidder among all the auctioneers."
"Can I eat any of these things?" Shen You pointed to the melon and fruit pastries on the table and asked the service staff.
"Of course, feel free." The waiter smiled professionally and said politely: "If you have any other requirements, just press the service bell on the wall next to you, and our waiter will come over immediately." ”
Waiting for the service staff to go out, Ding Xiu pressed the sofa chair under him, lay on it, and stretched comfortably.
"Leather sofa, lie comfortably." Gu Beimo smiled, picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, "Good tea." ”
"It's delicious, it's delicious." Shen You's mouth was already stuffed with a lot of things, she puffed out her cheeks, and her voice was a little inarticulate.
"Don't just eat, we're here to get down to business." Ding Xiu said with a smile.
"Isn't the auction going to start yet?" Shen You said and glanced at the auction table in front of the hall, and suddenly sat up straight, his gaze fixed, "There is a woman here, so beautiful." ”
"Where?" Gu Beimo was just talking to Ding Xiu, and when he heard that someone had come to the stage, he hurriedly looked there.
The space in the hall is very spacious, and there are hundreds of auditoriums inside, but at the moment, the seats are full.
The moment the woman took the stage, the lights around the hall dimmed, and the noise in the audience below was silent, and almost everyone's eyes were focused on her.
Several spotlights hit the stage, enveloping the woman's graceful figure in the light.
The woman wore a moon-white cheongsam cover, and under the slender jade neck, the delicate curves of the crisp chest were completely outlined. The skirt of the cheongsam hangs down to the ankles, the slits on the sides are at the knees, and the calves of even length are half-exposed from the bifurcations.
Under the light, her skin is fair and smooth, and she can be broken by blowing, giving people a feeling of not seeing flattery, but slightly bewitching.
The woman bent her waist to take a slight step, showing her wrist in front of her, she walked to the front of the stage, her eyes were like spring water, and her eyes swept over the audience, attracting many people's eyes to be hot, and the rough air in her mouth and nose was frequent.
"This is Song Xijun, I haven't seen him for three years, it's getting more and more beautiful, it's completely beautiful."
"Song Jiade really has to be this kind of big scene to be willing to let his baby daughter appear on stage, and he hides the number one beauty in Jiaping City tightly on weekdays, is he afraid of being abducted by a man?"
"Hehe, if Song Xijun is also an auction item, this man in Jiaping City will not be able to fight for his head."
……
Song Xijun has become the focus of discussion just by appearing on the stage, and in the dozens of boxes opposite the hall, many eyes are also focused on her.
"It's beautiful." Gu Beimo's mouth opened wide, and his eyes lingered on the shadow under the light.
"Lao Gu, if you like it, will you marry back?" Shen You said to him.
"Ha, marry back? I'll just take a look, this kind of stunner is not something my old Gu can afford. Gu Beimo sneered, retracted his gaze and laughed at himself: "Believe it or not, this woman is either the daughter of a powerful family, or the 'canary' raised by a nobleman. ”
"Don't think about the problem so materialist, Lao Gu, can't it be true love between men and women?" Shen You asked.
"True love? Hehe, worthy of this woman's true love, no matter what, it has to be a young and handsome guy like Xiaoding, I'm old. ”
Ding Xiu glanced at Song Xijun, and he did have a feeling of amazement in his heart, but unfortunately compared to Chen Jianing's pure and delicate spirit, the woman on the stage was more of a mature charm of a royal sister. In fact, Song Xijun is not very old, but she is only twenty-three or four, but she has been helping her father Song Jiade to take care of the core affairs of the auction house behind the scenes.
Song Xijun stood on the stage, lightly opened his wrist, and stretched the microphone in his hand to his mouth.
The audience was suddenly silent, and everyone knew that this beautiful woman was about to speak.
"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to Guardian Auction House, today is our triennial auction conference in Jiaping City, I am Song Xijun, I am honored to be able to take the stage again to host such an auction event for everyone. This auction is based on the principles of openness, fairness, impartiality and integrity, and I look forward to your enthusiastic bidding and wish you all the best of luck. ”
Song Xijun's voice is very sweet, with a hint of softness in the tactfulness, which makes people sound like a desire to conquer. Many people were guided by her voice, and the hearts of those who had only planned to wait and see first now had the urge to spend a lot of money, just to be able to smile at the Pomeranian next.
After Song Xijun finished speaking the opening remarks, she read out the auction rules and precautions, her tone of voice was not hurried, and the people in the audience and the box were listening quietly, and no one had an impatient look on their faces.
When she finished reading, a staff member came up from behind the stage with a square tray. The contents of the tray were covered with a piece of red silk, and judging by the shape, it should be a cube-shaped box.
"Here we are." Gu Beimo shouted at Ding Xiu and Shen You: "I really want to see what auction items will be used to take the lead in this triennial auction meeting in Jiaping City." ”
Ding Xiu and Shen You heard Gu Beimo say this, and both of them stretched their necks to look at the thing covered with red silk on the stage.
