Chapter 67: What Should Come Will Come Eventually

West suddenly stepped forward and took the initiative to say hello to Xiao Zhang, which really surprised Xiao Zhang.

Because just last night, the two had a clash at the Northern Lights nightclub.

But since people took the initiative to say hello, Xiao Zhang didn't want to give people a black face.

That would make you look stingy.

After a period of greetings, the guests who arrived followed the welcome sister into a building.

The auction venue for this auction is on the first floor of this building, which is a large hall that resembles a television studio.

A temporary stage is set up in front of the hall, where the auctioneer will auction the lots from the stage, and then the guests will bid on the highest bid.

At the bottom of the stage, there is a row of seats for the guests.

At the back of the hall, behind the seats, there are private rooms.

There are a total of six private rooms.

As with many venues, these private rooms are for those of high status.

If it is a small place, any boss, the latter is a certain small person, will be called a VIP.

But tonight's auction was a little different.

Because there were too many distinguished people on the spot tonight, and there were only six private rooms, those little people, or some local tyrant bosses, could only sit in the VIP seats under the stage, and they had nothing to do with the private room.

On a normal day, these people would definitely be dissatisfied, but tonight they dare not complain.

Because there are a lot of big people coming tonight.

………………

As the largest family in China, the Xiao family naturally has a seat for them in this box.

As for the other five boxes, if Xiao Zhang guessed correctly, West accounted for one of them, and the other four were undoubtedly one of the four young people in the capital.

Xiao Zhang, Jiang Ning Bahu and Gu Deng were led by a tall welcome lady to the door of the No. 1 private room.

The welcome lady stopped at the door, half-hunched over, and said to Xiao Zhang and the others: "Mr. Xiao, this is the private room prepared by our boss for you, which contains desserts, fruit plates, wines, and drinks prepared for you, I hope our service can satisfy you, and I hope you can take pictures of what you like tonight!" ”

Xiao Zhang smiled back at the welcome lady and said, "Thank you, hard work!" ”

"If I don't have any orders, I'll step down!" The welcome lady said.

"Hmm......" Xiao Zhang nodded.

"If there is anything you need us to serve you, you can call us at any time, we will be the first to serve you!" The welcome lady said.

"Okay......

With that, the welcome lady withdrew.

Xiao Zhang and his entourage walked into the private room, and the four of them sat down one after another.

"Xiao Ning, this is the auction list for tonight, see if you like it." After taking a seat, Xiao Zhang asked Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning glanced at the list slightly, and then his gaze stayed on the tenth column.

This is a landscape painting, which is said to be the true work of Tang Baihu, a famous painter in ancient China.

"I can't see that you still like artifacts?" Xiao Zhang said to Jiang Ning on the side.

"I have been interested in the history of our country since I was a child, and although I finally chose to study for an MBA, I still like the cultural relics of our country!" Jiang Ning said.

"You're such a different woman!" Xiao Zhang said: "Aren't ordinary girls like diamonds and jewelry, look at this Pandora's heart, how beautiful and flashy!" ”

"This Pandora's heart is indeed very tempting, but because it is so tempting, all the guests tonight are probably coming for it, for this kind of unattainable thing, just think about it in your heart!" Jiang Ning said.

In fact, Jiang Ning naturally longs to have such a unique necklace in the world, but she is also very aware of her current situation.

The Jiang family is bankrupt, and she is no longer the second lady of the Jiang family.

Of course, even if the Jiang family didn't go bankrupt, she couldn't afford to buy this thing.

Although the Jiang family's previous assets were also more than one billion, they could not afford to buy a necklace at a price of hundreds of millions or even higher.

"I think so, this thing is nothing more than that in my eyes! We Taobao and Jin Dongshang don't know how many of the same paragraph? And it's not expensive, 38 yuan free shipping! Xiao Zhang said.

"Puff...... Jiang Ning laughed directly and said, "Can that be the same?" ”

"In my mind, they're all ......the same," Xiao Zhang said.

……………

Soon after, the auction began in earnest.

At the beginning, a female auctioneer with a hot body walked up to the stage to give a speech, and then welcomed the guests and something like that.

Xiao Zhang wasn't very interested in this, but his eyes still glanced at the female auctioneer's fiery figure.

In the past, Xiao Zhang's thing didn't work, and he wasn't very interested in women.

Since he broke through the peak realm last night and lifted the seal, Xiao Zhang found that he began to pay attention to women with hot figures.

Xiao Zhang didn't know if this situation was good or bad.

After talking on stage for a long time, the female auctioneer finally began to introduce the first lot of the night.

"Now, let me introduce you to the first lot of the evening." Female auctioneer says:

For a moment, a jade pendant the size of three fingers engraved with the pattern of Guanyin appeared on the screen.

Xiao Zhang didn't know anything about jade, but he looked at the crystal pure, like congealed jade pendant, and felt very eye-catching.

"The jade pendant you see now is a jade pendant worn by a concubine at the end of the Qing Dynasty." The auctioneer said.

"Jade can raise people, but also beauty, I believe everyone understands, and our first lot of Guifei Jade tonight, the starting price is 800,000RMB, and the price will increase by 10,000RMB for each auction, okay, I announce, the auction has begun!"

"850,000!"

As soon as the female auctioneer's voice fell, someone in the audience soon raised a sign to increase the price.

900,000! At this time, sitting directly below the stage, a very rich man raised a sign and shouted.

"1 million!" Someone shouted again.

"1.5 million!" Someone in the audience shouted again.

"2 million"

Xiao Zhang stared at what was happening in the hall at this time, and at the same time kept an eye on whether there was any movement in the other private rooms.

Xiao Zhang also peeked at Jiang Ning beside him from time to time to see if she was interested in this jade pendant.

If Jiang Ning likes it, Xiao Zhang will not hesitate to take a picture for her.

A few million is just a small amount to him.

And when someone shouted 2 million, the atmosphere in the hall was not so lively in an instant.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you.

Seeing that no one was bidding anymore, the female auctioneer shouted: "2 million, is there anything higher!" ”

"2.5 million!" At this moment, the very rich man in the audience gritted his teeth and shouted again.

"Wow! Our No. 8 guest bid 2.5 million! Is there anything higher? The female auctioneer said excitedly when she heard someone increase the price.

"2,500,000 once!" Seeing that no one responded, the female auctioneer shouted again.

"2,500,000 twice!"

"2,500,000 ........."

"3 million!"

Just as the auctioneer was about to finalize, a voice came from the No. 3 private room.

"Finally ........." Xiao Zhang smiled when he heard this voice.

"Grandpa Gu, who is this No. 3 private room?" Xiao Zhang asked.

"That kid from the Li family........." Gu Deng stroked his beard and replied.

"Oh?" Xiao Zhang pondered for a while and said, "Grandpa Gu, do we want to play with this Li Gongzi?" ”

"Everything is decided by you, young master, no matter what choice the young master makes, I will support the old slave!" Gu Deng said.

"Hey! Forget it! Let this Li Gongzi be happy first, let's not provoke first! ”

After Li Junnan shouted out the high price of 3 million in the No. 3 private room, no one increased the price, so Li Junnan auctioned the piece of concubine jade at a high price of 3 million.

Xiao Zhang was still a little surprised that the other private rooms were so quiet, he thought that those boys and buddies would fight for their heads, who knew that it would be so peaceful.

Of course, this is just the beginning.

The second lot is a piece of ceramic.

It is said to have been unearthed from an official kiln in the Ming Dynasty, but it was slightly damaged.

The starting price is 500,000RMB.

In the end, this somewhat damaged Ming and Qing dynasty ceramics were bought by the No. 26 guests at a high price of 2 million.

This was followed by some fragmentary lots, which Xiao Zhang was not very interested in, and the other private rooms were not very sound.

"Next, it's the ninth lot of the night......... "The auctioneer told everyone again.

Xiao Zhang raised his head and looked at the screen?

This is a rusty Tang knife.

When he was looking at the list, Xiao Zhang had already paid attention to this Tang knife.

"The starting price of our Tang knife is 1 million RMB." The female auctioneer said to the crowd.

Antique lovers know that the older the object, the more expensive it becomes.

But this Tang knife was already rusty, and when this high price was shouted, the audience became silent.

Half a minute passed, and there was still no bid.

The female auctioneer on the stage quickly explained that if no one bids after a minute, the lot would be lost.

Despite this, there was still no response from the audience.

At this time, Xiao Zhang, who was in the No. 1 private room, suddenly spoke: "1.1 million." ”

When Xiao opened his mouth, the guests sitting in the audience said that the big man in the private room was really rich, and such a piece of rotten iron, which had almost been discarded, was willing to bid.

Xiao Zhang also had doubts, he also thought that this Tang knife was not worth the price.

But after seeing such a high starting price, he vaguely felt that the knife didn't seem to be as bad as it looked, so he decided to take a gamble.

Anyway, he has money now, and a million is nothing to him.

"Young Master, do you like this knife?" Gu Deng saw Xiao open his mouth and asked.

"I just lack a good self-defense weapon, take a gamble!" Xiao Zhang said.

"If the young master wants a weapon, he can talk to the old slave!" Gu Deng said: "Our Xiao family has a magic weapon.........

"It's only a million, it doesn't matter......" Xiao Zhang said.

"Good! Listen to the young master! ”

"1.1 million, 1.1 million for 1 private room, is there anything higher?" Hearing Xiao Zhang's offer, the female auctioneer said with joy on her face.

"2 million!" At this time, a voice suddenly came from the second private room.

After shouting 2 million in the No. 2 private room, Xiao Zhang's brows suddenly furrowed, and he said in his heart: What should come is here after all......
