Chapter 144: Charity Dinner (2)

As soon as he entered and sat in his respective positions, Ji Xiaochen became lazy, covering his mouth with one hand and yawning one after another.

"Sleepy?"

"No, it's just that every time I get to this kind of occasion, I am very bored and want to sleep." In fact, she rarely sees anything she particularly likes at the charity dinner, it is really charity, it is better to donate money directly to those left-behind children, as for some of the money above, the investor gets it, and maybe how much will be deducted.

One by one, the local tyrants began to bid for it, but in fact, they didn't particularly like a kind of treasure, but pure Lufu, which had more votes than anyone.

Xu Shaobai knew that his daughter-in-law had always been like this, so he patted himself on the shoulder, "Borrow your shoulder, I'll call you when it's over." ”

"If you don't sleep, you can't sleep in this kind of place, and if you really get seen, you don't know how to say that you don't respect investors...... Let's take a look at what kind of lot it will be. Ji Xiaochen said this, in fact, no matter what the lot is, she shouldn't be interested in it.

At this time, the first lot came up, it was a porcelain that looked a little like a spittoon, and the appearance really broke the record again, Ji Xiaochen frowned in disgust, "This kind of lot is here, is anyone really shooting it?" ”

"Definitely."

"That must be someone stupid and has a lot of money."

If the quality is average, it is not enough to be amazing, but it is old, and it is still quite collectible to take home, but if it looks like this, even if it is old, Ji Xiaochen may not look at it twice, but at this moment, the buddies who are stupid and have a lot of money are definitely not one or two, as soon as they heard that it was from the Ming Dynasty, the price immediately went up.

One million is drizzle, and the subsequent price increases are all millions of plus, Ji Xiaochen couldn't help but complain, "Is this to buy back and continue to be a spittoon?" Buy a spittoon of six or seven million back, who is willing to use it? ”

Xu Shaobai couldn't help but smile and endure a little hard, in fact, these so-called rich people don't really understand these works of art, purely because of the high price, put them at home as the treasure of the town, if there are guests to go, and then show off by the way, this should be the value of those works of art. But these antiques seemed worthless to her daughter-in-law, and if those people heard them, they would probably have to vomit blood.

Like Jiang Yuan's guy, he used to be bad at this mouthful, but he has recently become interested in gambling stones at auctions, so he didn't care about money, so he began to cast his net everywhere, and I heard that a jade ashtray of a certain era that he got at hand cost about five million, and he is still struggling...... As a result, if you are not careful, you will fall, and there will be nothing.

So, antiques are just like that, if you think it's good, it's good, if you think it's a scum, it's worthless.

"Congratulations to Boss Jia for winning the first treasure in one fell swoop, and the second treasure is below...... "This time it is still a blue and white porcelain cup, but it is much more eye-catching than the first one, and the quality is also good, it seems to be made in the Qing Dynasty, although the age is not as good as that of the Yuan Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, but Ji Xiaochen sat up straight, and looked carefully with one hand on his cheeks.

At least not exclusively.

Xu Dashao could sweep the little wife's actions with the rest of his eyes, he hooked his lips, turned sideways, and said in a low voice, "How about this?" It's okay, it's my mother's birthday after a while, so I can use this to take it back to honor her old man, and I can also decorate the faΓ§ade. ”

"The condition is okay, the reserve price is 500,000, it shouldn't go anywhere, try it first." Ji Xiaochen thought that as long as it was five million, he would be able to accept it, and if he gave up after five million, but in Xu Shaobai's opinion, since he wanted it, he must take it, more money and less money is just a number, it doesn't matter.

"Well, shoot first."

"A million!" Xu Shaobai took the lead in raising the card.

"One and a half million!"

"Two million!"

"Three million!"

At the beginning, the auction price did not rise much, and then the gap was opened, and in the end there were only two people bidding, one was Xu Shaobai, and the other was the first treasure Boss Jia, this business tycoon seemed to have a soft spot for blue and white porcelain, and then Xu Shaobai adjusted the bidding price to five million, and Boss Jia directly came to an eight million, raising the price by three million.

"This Boss Jia is a lot of money, so I'm panicking, eight million!" Ji Xiaochen was a little speechless, she glanced at the man beside her, and asked quietly, "Do you want to continue the auction, this Boss Jia seems to be bound to win, and the auction price has exceeded its original value." ”

Xu Shaobai raised his eyebrows, and there was no pressure at all on his angular handsome face, but a little more banter, "Shoot, of course you have to shoot!" Daughter-in-law, don't you even have this strength as your husband? The surname Jia is bound to win, then your husband and I are the same, not to mention that I have promised, this blue and white porcelain is going to be taken back to send to my mother-in-law, how can it be cut off here? ”

"But ......"

"The money on the card is just a small amount of money, and you know that there is still a large amount of money in circulation, and it will be an astronomical amount to wait for two years to get it back, by the way, wife, there is a lockbox in the Swiss bank, and there is still a ...... there"

Originally, Ji Xiaochen wanted to pinch her ears, but she still had to save some face for her husband in front of people, but at this time, she didn't show much mercy, and everyone could see Xu Dashao's handsome face that was about to change color.

Is this the rhythm to give up?

"Eight million at a time!"

"Eight million twice!"

"Fifteen million!"

This time, it was not Xu Shaobai who was holding the card, but the woman sitting next to him, because of the sudden change of people, so the eyes of the audience at this time were on Ji Xiaochen.

Xu Shaobai looked at his daughter-in-law with a smile, but he didn't expect that the little thing that has always been cautious suddenly became domineering today, for this, Xu Shaobai still felt that he should be encouraged, "Daughter-in-law, if you want something, even if you want to buy it all today, it's no problem, I can still afford this money!" ”

"Upstart!" Ji Xiaochen flattened his mouth.

Xu Shaobai touched his nose, "If you really want to say that, it's not wrong, it's just that I'm very stingy with others, and if I really want to break out, it's only for your daughter-in-law." ”

"Flim Flam." That being said, she still has a sweet heart, and it feels good that any man is willing to share everything he has with you.

"Fifteen million at a time."

"Fifteen million twice."

"Fifteen million three times! Deal! ”

After the second lot was auctioned, Xu Shaobai had already attracted the attention of many people, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he had rich financial resources, and among the two husbands and wives, maybe the daughter-in-law was dominant...... In the eyes of the noblewomen, this cannot be said to be envy, jealousy and hatred.

And Cui Shiman, who has been paying attention to it on the side, has eyes that are about to turn red, she used to think that Xu Shaobai was a potential stock, but she didn't expect to take out fifteen million without even a trace of hesitation, such a man has to look and have a position of power, if you can pay attention to her a few more times, it would be great......

But in fact, the man's eyes always fell on the woman.

Is she that good?

"Is that her, the one next to her is her husband?" Mr. Chen pinched her palm and looked in that direction meaningfully.

Cui Shiman nodded, and a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes.

Mr. Chen got the answer he wanted, and he has been pondering. Although there are few women he wants that he can't get, but those women all want money, or want an opportunity, an opportunity to climb up, and he happens to be able to give them, so there is a scene of mutual benefit.

But that woman, she had a man who doted on him, and he was not short of money at all, he couldn't think of any reason to bring people over.

"Manman, what is the identity of that man?"

Cui Shiman shook his head, "I don't know what it is, but it seems to be a soldier." ”

Soldier? Mr. Chen glanced at the woman beside him with disdain, but a soldier would have this kind of courage, and he spent a lot of money just to smile at Bo Jiaren, I am afraid that most of them are officers, and there are the kind of posteriors, even if this is the case, he may have to stop thinking about it.

"The fourth lot, let's see what this fourth lot is! Oh, this is a painting, an oil painting of human figures, by the famous British realist painter Ferroman......"

Although the host said this, there was a somewhat strange look on his face, which was not there just now, and it was this that made everyone present wonder what that painting was?

But when the scroll was opened, the audience fell into an eerie silence, some of the ladies were huddled together and whispered, and the men's eyes were a little uncomfortable, but they did not hide a trace of heat in their eyes.

In the picture scroll is a woman, an Oriental woman, and the one who has been booming on the Internet recently, and she is also at the scene at this time.

Ji Xiaochen's brows were about to be knotted, and she looked stunned, "Which foreign devil drew this!" This is an infringement of portrait rights, how can it still be put up for auction here, and what does the organizer mean? ”

Xu Shaobai's face was not much better than hers, even to the extreme, a handsome face was so heavy that it was about to drip, and a pair of narrow black eyes burst out with a cold light, the host looked at him coldly, and was frightened.

And Cui Shiman obviously didn't expect such a show, and a smile rose at the corner of her mouth, as if she was mocking and sarcastic...... If this painting is really going to be bought, it will really be a big slap in the face.

"It's really interesting. Manman, what do you think I should do if I buy this painting back? ”

Cui Shiman blinked and said with a smile, "With Mr. Chen's strength, there should be no problem at all if you want to buy such a painting, and if you buy it back, you can hang it in the hall and look at it every day." ”

"Really? I think so too. ”

The starting price of the painting is 1.2 million.

At this time, the audience was already boiling, the heroines of the paintings were sitting on the scene, many people looked at the paintings, while looking at the heroines of reality, and found that the painting was really good, Shen Yun was painted with seven or eight points, and some men with singles were also a little ready to move.

"Two million!" Someone has already started to raise their cards.

Mr. Chen smiled and held up the card, "Five million!" ”

"Six million!"

Xu Shaobai directly crossed a number, "Twenty million!" ”

Just kidding, this painting must fall into his hands, no one wants to have it! What man can tolerate his wife being coveted and peeked at the bedside all the time?

As for the aftermath, when the auction is over, it seems that he can directly sue the Feroman master in court.
