Chapter 5 Bidding 01
The auction officially began after three gongs, the first piece of Ming ware is the Southern Song Dynasty blue and white porcelain, although this vase is precious, but in the eyes of everyone behind the scenes, it is just an ordinary object in the window, the reason why it appears in such an auction, is mainly because of the picture.
I sat in my box and watched the buyers on the first and second floors start bidding, starting with 300,000 yuan, each bidding price is 50,000 yuan, and the transaction price is 1.7 million yuan when the hammer is struck for the first time.
"It's really surprising that Mr. Guan is here."
A woman's voice drifted in along the scent of flowers, and I didn't look back, my eyes were still looking at the auction table downstairs, and said, "I shouldn't have appeared before, but now that I'm here, this rule is invalid." ”
"You're here?" Her voice was raised a bit.
I looked at the buyers in the lobby downstairs, nodded, and said, "Yes, I'm here." ”
The footsteps faded away, and I never looked back at the woman, because her voice was all too familiar to me.
There was a burst of applause downstairs, the blue and white porcelain vase was sold at a price of 3.2 million yuan, and a buyer from Chengdu successfully bid for it, this young man in his thirties did not have any expression on his face, for he spent 3.2 million yuan to buy this vase, it seemed that this was not his business.
The door opened, and the waiter brought a pot of tea and some authentic pastries, and Xiyang, who came in after the waiter, sat on the chair next to me, his eyes skimmed over the buyers downstairs, and laughed, "You can really sit still, I thought you came to see it." ”
"Why, Guan Yue never participated in an auction before?" I asked.
Xiyang let out a "hmm". "Going to the auction is usually played by the old people in Dongyuan, how about it? You still want to see it. ”
I glanced at the private room opposite. "If you don't go, I'll wait for someone."
Xiyang didn't understand. "Wait a minute, is there anyone you want to meet here?"
"Yes." I looked into the van, "I want to see what he looked like six years ago, and I want to figure out one thing." ”
Xiyang was a little puzzled, he looked at me, looked at the private room opposite for a while, and the auction downstairs continued, and the bidding came and went. But there is no movement on our third floor, I didn't bid, and Mrs. Bai next to me didn't move, let alone the one opposite, the curtain hasn't been opened since I entered.
Suddenly, after a gong sounded downstairs, a lantern was hung out on Mrs. Bai's side, and there was an immediate uproar downstairs. They all looked up at the third floor.
Xiyang was also taken aback, leaned forward, and said, "Madam Bai bid 10 million." ”
"How do you know?" I wondered.
Xiyang pointed to the lantern, "See." It's not an ordinary lantern, but how many colors are there? ”
I counted, "Ten?" ”
"A million colors. That's the rule on the high seas, I've heard. This time, the Ming ware is an ancient ship from the high seas, so the seller will let Hanhai come forward to hold an auction. Hanhai Company is also distributed in the high seas, and they are considered a strong alliance, while our Dongyuan has never been involved in the sea area, so it is not surprising that you don't know. ”
I nodded and said, "So how do you know?" ”
Xiyang pointed downstairs, "Here's a good friend of mine, she told me." ”
I looked at the cheongsam waiter downstairs who was standing next to the third box, and smiled, "It's my girlfriend." ”
Xiyang smiled and shrugged, "Not yet, but I'm confident." ”
I looked at him, and suddenly thought of the Xiyang I had met in the plum blossom array before, and my heart suddenly felt very uncomfortable, what had happened in the past six years that could make such a cheerful person become deep and indifferent, and also become a dead invisible person.
There was still no movement in the private room opposite, and because Madame Bai had hung colored lanterns, no one dared to bid and compete anymore.
"Xiyang, have you ever been fighting?"
Xiyang kept looking at the cheongsam waiter, and smiled, "Not yet." ”
"No?" I looked at him suspiciously, "You haven't been in a fight, it's impossible." ”
Xiyang sat back in his place and said very solemnly: "I didn't lie to you, I really didn't fight, did you forget?" At the beginning, you chose one between me and Bai Yun to do ground support, but you said that my personality is too impetuous, not suitable for fighting, and my kung fu is not very good, and I will cause trouble for you if I go down, just because of your words, I have always been active on the ground, Ah Guan, you will not be testing me, I swear to God, I have always been very obedient, I have memorized the rules of our Dongyuan, and I dare not make mistakes. ”
I see his slightly innocent side, and the way he is combined in the plum blossom array, my heart is even more unpleasant.
For a moment, I felt that Xiyang was very much like a grasshopper, innocent and cute, without any scheming, just living well, cherishing and protecting the people around him, and that was enough.
But the gnats are not the grasshoppers after all, he is Qianjue, when he gradually recovers his memory in the Yunnan Golden Scale Tomb, the innocent and straightforward and a little funny gnats are gone, and now Xiyang is the same, six years ago, he was a little follower by Guan Yue's side, but
Xiyang saw me sitting on the chair with a solemn expression, his eyes were dull, his eyes were empty, and he took a piece of plum blossom cake and shook it in front of me in a moment of curiosity, and said, "What do you think?" ”
I was about to speak, but when I looked up, I saw the curtain that had been hanging in the private room opposite.
Jiang Yuan in a white shirt sat on the sofa in the middle, with a laptop and a mobile phone on the coffee table, Jiang Yuan was still immature six years ago, although the eyebrows have formed that kind of daunting momentum, but after all, he is just a child, even if he is tall, he is not bad.
The big bodyguard next to him made my nose sour suddenly, Liang Jun, this man who sacrificed his life to protect his master.
Behind their sofa, six people in black suits stood straight, I remembered that Qian Jue told me, he said that Jiang Yuan originally had ten cronies around him, and now there are seven, so what about the other three?
I had a big question mark in my heart, and Xiyang, who had been eating at this time, also noticed the movement on the other side, he glanced at it very casually, and then continued to choose what he liked to eat in the pastry plate, and said while eating: "That old man Jiang is really making a big fuss, can he attend an auction to make this move?" ”
I heard him say something strange and asked, "Who are you talking about?" ”
Xiyang was stunned for a moment, and then looked at me with a hint of inexplicability, "You don't see it, the kid on the other side is only fifteen years old, and the old man Jiang put him in the position of the head of Xihe, I heard that a few days is the kid's birthday, and the old man Jiang also said that he would announce a major news on his sixteenth birthday." ”
I listened patiently and asked, "And then?" ”
Xiyang took a sip of tea, with a look of disdain, "No more, isn't it his birthday yet!" (To be continued.) )
