Chapter 164: The Auction

Due to the speed of the cruise, the auction arrived as scheduled at 10 o'clock the next morning. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Li Yiming was still wearing the casual clothes of the bad street, standing calmly at the door of the venue, which was arranged in a conference hall of the cruise ship, a simple auction table, surrounded by several layers of sofas in a semicircle, there were not many sofas, less than thirty, and it seemed that there were not many people participating in the auction.

Chen Quan was dressed in a military uniform, standing on the side in a suit and leather shoes, this suit with delicate fabrics seemed to be custom-made, Chen Quan's little man was very special, but Chen Quan, who was five short in height, looked like a child wearing adult clothes, revealing an inexplicable sense of joy.

Chen Quan's face was a little embarrassed, not because of his own dress, but because the two of them were stopped by the staff.

"It's okay, just wait a while." Li Yiming shrugged his shoulders indifferently. They were indeed stopped at the door, because their identities were not serious guests after all, they had to wait for all the other guests to enter before they could enter, and there was no fixed position, just a row of square stools were reserved in the corner of the venue.

"What's not in the way?" A weak but obviously suppressed angry voice sounded from behind Chen Quan, who was looking through the door at this time, observing the occupancy rate inside, and calculating the time he had to wait.

"The dose is less...... Chen Quan didn't look back, but smiled at Li Yiming casually, completely ignoring the voice behind him, the news had spread, and Chen Quan simply pulled away from the shelf.

Li Yiming pulled him with a wry smile, let out the door he had blocked, and inadvertently glanced at the people who were blocked in the way. The person who came was the rabbit girl, who was supported by Ximen Song, with a pale face of dehydration, but the resentment between the eyebrows was undisguised.

"Don't be like these people." Ximen Song gently comforted the rabbit girl, but his eyes were a little evasive, after he inquired about Chen Quan's identity, Li Yiming's long pale hair looked extremely evil.

"What's going on with the security guards on this ship?" Walking in front of the two, the rabbit girl glared angrily at the staff at the door of the venue.

"I'm sorry two of you, can you take a break first?" The security guard came into contact with this obviously accusatory look, realized the negligence of his work, and politely spoke to Li Yiming and the two, with a trace of imperceptible disdain in his eyes. Blocking the door with a dead face, he was scolded in vain.

Chen Quan was a little annoyed when he heard this, and regretted that he had taken the medicine lightly, but Li Yiming didn't care, smiled apologetically, and took a few steps back.

"I'm sorry, I've been waiting for a long time, the zipper of the dress is stuck, and the assistant has been working for a long time." A gentle voice sounded at this time, and Li Yiming, who was retreating, felt his wrist sink, and a white and thin arm hung on his wrist.

"Sister Shui'er......" The security guard stared at Fang Shui'er who was snuggled next to Li Yiming in surprise, they ...... They......

"You're not going to be good to me, are you?" Fang Shui'er looked up at Li Yiming and smiled, with a rare playfulness and innocence on her face, as well as a little coquettishness.

"How dare you!" Li Yiming smiled bitterly.

"Let's go!" Fang Shui'er didn't wait for Li Yiming to think about it, and pulled him to walk quickly towards the venue, this time, the security guard did not stop him, but there was a trace of panic and uneasiness on his face.

Fang Shui'er's steps were very brisk, like a happy girl, and she was completely solemn as before, which caused her to pull Li Yiming forward quickly.

Similarly, the two people who quickly entered the venue were blocked in the aisle, and in front of them was the rabbit girl who had just entered the venue, and the pale rabbit girl was moving slowly under the support of Ximen Song, with a calm and elegant gait, trying to hide her weakness.

"What's not in the way?" Chen Quan spoke in a strange tone.

"You?" The rabbit girl turned around and was about to scold, but at a glance she saw Fang Shui'er with a gentle smile, and subconsciously leaned towards Ximensong, and Ximensong would be mistaken, so she took her in her arms and made way out of the aisle.

"We should actually let them go first, caring for people with disabilities is a social virtue." Fang Shui'er didn't stop, but when she passed the two of them, she turned around and muttered to Chen Quan.

"Oops, I forgot, thank you Miss Fang for reminding me, I must pay attention when I get off the car, care for the disabled personnel ......" Chen Quan immediately made a look of regret, but when he said the disabled personnel, his tone was particularly strange.

"Little white-faced ......" Rabbit Girl struggled to push away Ximen Song, glaring at Li Yiming viciously, this muttering voice was not loud or small, but it was just enough for all the guests and staff around who had not yet sat down to hear it.

Chen Quan's face sank, and he subconsciously inserted his hand into his trouser pocket.

"My position seems to be over there......" Li Yiming didn't seem to hear the sarcasm of the rabbit girl, let go of Fang Shui'er's hand, and pointed towards the row of square stools in the corner of the venue.

"Oh, let's go over then." Fang Shui'er smiled sweetly, picked up Li Yiming again, and walked towards the corner of the venue.

There were whispers all around, and whether it was looking at Fang Shui'er or Li Yiming, there was a hint of suspicion in their eyes.

Sitting down on the square stool, Li Yiming finally turned his head to look at Fang Shui'er with an inquiry in his eyes.

"I'm here to play anyway, it's the same wherever I sit, at least sit next to you, you won't treat me as a big star, look at those people, either you're not afraid of me, or you just want to sleep with me......" Fang Shui'er met Li Yiming's gaze and smiled shallowly.

"It's different after sleeping......" Chen Quan smiled ambiguously, obviously misunderstanding the relationship between the two.

Fang Shui'er sat on the spare seat, and the waiter in the distance was stupid, how to get it? He subconsciously looked at a fat man on the side of the auction table.

The fat man was Yu Runhai, who was chatting with a friend with a young model at the moment, noticing the waiter's gaze, Yu Runhai shook his head slightly, pushed the waiter with the drink, turned around silently, and did his own thing.

The guests arrived in pairs, Li Yiming noticed that most of the men present, and most of them brought one or two girls, most of these girls Li Yiming had seen at the pool party, it seemed that the night passed, they all had a lot of gains, Li Yiming searched in the crowd, but did not see the girl who fell into the water.

"Don't look for it, you gave three million, and no one will be bored anymore." Fang Shui'er noticed Li Yiming's gaze, and opened her mouth like a sharp heart, but her tone was sour.

Chen Quan moved his body strangely, and glanced at Li Yiming with admiration, it was really not simple......

The guests sat down, and the auction finally began, presided over by an older middle-aged man, Gu Chenquan, who was also a well-known expert in the appraisal process.

The appraisal expert is really different from the ordinary host, without any nonsense to warm up, after coming to the stage, he directly cut to the topic, launched a huge screen, lifted the red cloth, and began to introduce.

The first auction item is a wooden screen, small leaf red sandalwood splicing, 132 cm long, 181 cm high, thickness 4.3, the screen Ming and Qing Dynasty style, the color is full and round under the light, black and red, red with gold, the screen is surrounded by moire inlay, the front is a relief of a thousand mountains and birds, lifelike, fresh and clever.

Li Yiming doesn't understand antiques, but the screen in front of him makes his eyes shine, even if he doesn't know anything about Xiaoye Rosewood, but this appearance is also worth a lot of money.

The host lifted the red cloth, pushed the screen around, picked up the hand card and simply took a break of the jerky ancient text, listening to Xiang is someone's biography, but Li Yiming, who has poor literary skills, didn't understand.

Reading the card, the host stood aside with a smile and did not speak.

That's it? Li Yiming was surprised. Didn't introduce it at all? Not even talking about the low price of the auction......

"A million!" Someone made an offer.

"One million and two million!"

"One million two hundred and fifty thousand!"

The price continued to soar, and Li Yiming turned his head to look at Chen Quan.

"We don't affect the bidding if we sit here, right?" Li Yiming noticed that there were seven or eight people sitting on the square bench beside him, but probably because of Fang Shui'er, they were sitting far away from him.

"No." Chen Quan pursed his lips, a little embarrassed.

Li Yiming didn't speak, but inadvertently glanced at the venue again, there were a total of seven monitors, and six of them were facing his position......

Xiaoye Rosewood's screen was finally sold at a price of 2.3 million, Li Yiming didn't know if it was worth the money, so he looked at the waiter in the distance boredly, beckoned, and asked for a glass of lemonade.

The second item to be auctioned is a hairpin, the close-up zoom in looks a little old, there are a lot of damaged positions around, the hairpin is gorgeous, the shape is a lark with a high head, and the feathers on the back are inlaid with gemstones, although the gems are obviously missing, but they have not affected the gorgeousness of the hairpin at all.

The host picked up the card again and read out an ancient text as always, which sounded even more jerky, and Li Yiming only vaguely understood the three words "Qin Wangfu".

"Three million!" At the end of the host's reading, someone immediately opened the bid.

"Damn!" Chen Quan on the side burst into foul language. "I'm out of sight."

"How much did you sell in the first place?" Li Yiming heard Chen Quan's helplessness and looked at the other party strangely.

"Three hundred thousand...... Who would have thought that a silver hairpin could sell for this price? Chen Quan pursed his lips in annoyance.

"This hairpin is silver?"

"What do you think? Where did platinum come from in those days? ”

"It's not easy to do more......" Li Yiming shook his head meaningfully.

In the midst of the two laughing, this hairpin was sold at a price of 4.85 million, Chen Quan's chagrin was even worse, and he asked for a bottle of beer with a bitter face...... After going back, he must have studied the relevant knowledge diligently, and a hairpin worn by the princess when she was sealed in history was sold cheaply by herself......

After the handover of the hairpin, the host put out a wooden shelf expressionlessly, lifted the red cloth, and a golden lid appeared in front of everyone.
