Chapter 1 A dollar can't buy a loss (reform)
Bai Yuan, male, 22 years old, has just finished his two-year military career, has no idea of going to work immediately, and is in a state of enjoying a good life.
"Sure enough, compared to the three millimeters of the army, the current hairstyle suits me, it's so handsome!" Bai Yuan said sincerely as he looked at himself in the mirror while wearing a tie.
tightened the crimson tie, smoothed the oblique bangs on his head, straightened the brown half-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, looked at himself in the mirror, one meter eight tall, slightly darker complexion, thanks to his two-year military career, his body line is well-proportioned, although the muscles on his body are not as exaggerated as the bodybuilding coach, but each of his muscles is very strong, and it will make a muffled sound when knocked on it.
At the end of last week, my cousin said that I was going to take him to an auction today, my cousin's family is a chain of 4S stores, and he has a lot of money, but his parents are tightly managed, and his pocket money every month is pitiful.
He thought that he must dress up well for today's occasion, but what he didn't know was that he only had 12 hours left to live......
"The first time I wore a suit, I didn't expect me to be so handsome in a suit, I was really a hanger. The corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he nodded in satisfaction.
glanced at the quartz watch given to him by the squad leader on the day of his discharge, it was exactly eight o'clock.
"The auction starts at nine o'clock, my cousin is probably coming to pick me up, ha! I'm still a little excited, and I don't know if the transaction price at the auction is casually tens of millions!"
Walked to the living room, to the sofa comfortably came to a Ge You to lie down, the two years of being a soldier in the upright sitting posture were all returned to the squad leader, think about it, it seems that this is what I did when I went to school, and the knowledge I learned was returned to the teacher as soon as I got to the exam, fortunately his father didn't see it, or he had to count down whether he stood or not, and sat or not.
took out his mobile phone and clicked on a novel, and when he saw the name of the novel, he couldn't help yawning, it was because of this novel last night that he fell asleep when he saw a little.
"The world structure of this book is so big, I don't know what year I have to chase it. He sighed in joy or sorrow.
"On this ordinary day, I was wearing ordinary shoes, very ordinary......"
Finally waited for his cousin's call, Bai Yuan hurriedly picked it up.
"Cousin, are you here? Okay, I'll come down right away!"
Hung up the phone, a carp straightened, rushed to the shoe cabinet in three steps and two steps, picked up the water cup and took a sip of water, and hummed a pleasant tune while putting on his shoes and went out of the door, because the elevator was next to him, so every time he went out, he pressed the elevator first, and then locked the door, this method can sometimes help him save time, Bai Yuan is very punctual, and he doesn't like others to be late.
When I came to the entrance of the community, a white Range Rover across the road poked its head out of it and shouted, "Xiaobai, here!"
Bai Yuan also beckoned, "It's coming!"
As soon as he got in the car, Bai Yuan complained with a depressed face: "How many times has my cousin told you, don't call me Xiaobai, it sounds like a pet." ”
"Haha! Okay Xiaobai, I know Xiaobai!" The cousin had a signature smile on his face, and raised an eyebrow at him proudly.
You're forcing me...... , Bai Yuan thought to himself, pinched his throat and released a killer feature: "Little Bailing!"
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, no kidding. "My cousin started the car in embarrassment, this nickname is black history, how can this kid not forget it after being a soldier for two years? Alas, don't be known by more people.
"Cousin, when did you buy this car? I was still looking for your Q7 at the door. ”
"I can't drive the limited Q7 today, this car is my birthday gift on my birthday last year. ”
"This car looks so domineering! Hehe, cousin, borrow me to drive it one day." ”
"Didn't you never get a driver's license?"
"I learned to drive in the army, and the other day I changed to a local driver's license. ”
......
After chatting all the way, I arrived at my destination at 8:40 and took the elevator from the underground parking lot to the auction house.
Named after its founder, Li Shibao, this auction house is the largest auction house in Hongzhou City, and on the 18th floor of this commercial building, it is said to be the best floor of feng shui. "My cousin introduced him in the elevator.
As soon as he got out of the elevator, his cousin gave the invitation to the welcome lady at the elevator door, and Bai Yuan was attracted by the display cabinets on both sides, including bronze, porcelain, ivory products, and a detailed description of the items in the display case.
"Cousin, is the showcase next to it today's lot? And this floor, ho! It's golden, it can't be gilded, right?"
As soon as the words fell, a woman's disdainful voice came from the side: "Cut, soil buns!"
When he turned his head, there was a man with oily hair and a pink face walking out of the elevator on the right, a head shorter than Bai Yuan, his eyes were slightly squinted, and he looked tired, as if he hadn't woken up yet.
The man glanced at them, and when he saw his cousin, his originally squinted eyes suddenly opened, the corners of his mouth rose, revealing a malicious smile, his body turned around, and said, "Yo, Jin Shao, such a coincidence, I came to see the auction again today." He deliberately pronounced an accent on the words, as if he meant something.
The cousin heard it, this was mocking him for having no money to buy things and only to look at it, so he immediately counterattacked: "Yes, your family has a big business compared to the dragon, so come here to buy something if you have nothing to do, how many are you going to buy today?"
The man named Long Shao's face darkened, he did buy it twice, but it was his father who didn't have time to come, so he bought it for his father, and this time he just brought the girl who just soaked a few days ago to see, in fact, everyone is in a circle, and they know the roots, and there is no need to expose each other's shortcomings, but it's just ......
At this time, the woman holding Brother Long's right hand spoke, and her voice was so sweet that she was greasy: "Brother Long, don't be like these two dirt buns, let's go in quickly, it's about to start!"
Only then did Bai Yuan notice her, she was petite, with delicate facial features, a little shorter than Brother Long, she was blocked by Brother Long just now and didn't see it, the previous sentence of the soil bun must have been what she said.
Brother Long's face softened slightly, and he nodded: "Okay, then let's go in first." ”
As if I hadn't heard what I had just said, my hand habitually slid down slowly when I walked, and the movements were natural and smooth, and finally landed on my girlfriend's ass and kneaded it a few times, causing a coquettish cry.
"Cousin, who is this, has you had an affair?" Bai Yuan's keen gossip detector told him that there must be a story in it.
"Alas, last year he and I fell in love with Wanru at the same time, and then Wanru chose me very wisely. Needless to say, my cousin lifted his chin triumphantly, looking like you are coming to worship me.
"Hey, his current girlfriend looks far worse than his sister-in-law, no wonder he has a lot of resentment. Bai Yuan looked at Long Shao's distant back again, no matter how he looked at it, there was a trace of sadness.
"That's it, let's go in. ”
After entering, the two of them found their seats near the aisle, and took today's lot album from the hostess at the door, Bai Yuan flipped through it for a while and was not interested, just a picture and a name, no introduction and no price, it is better to find a cousin Kan Dashan.
"Brother Long, our location is here. ”
"Okay, you sit inside. ”
It's so familiar, Bai Yuan was chatting with his cousin, when he heard a familiar voice, he turned his head to look, and sure enough, the road was narrow, and their seats were actually together, the woman sat next to Bai Yuan, looked to the side, rolled her eyes, moved to Brother Long's side with a disgusted face, pulled Brother Long's sleeve, and snorted to Bai Yuan's side.
Brother Long's eyes rolled, leaned into her ear, and whispered something.
At nine o'clock, the auction officially began.
On the auction table, a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties walked up, the man was wearing a suit, with an inch of hair, looking very neat, this man was today's auctioneer, who had been auctioning full-time at Shibao Auction House for two years.
The lights in the hall dimmed until they were completely turned off, leaving only one beam on the auction table so that the auction items could be seen more clearly.
"Ladies and gentlemen, good morning, welcome to the auction held by Shibao Auction House today, my name is Xiao Jun, the national registered auctioneer, the registration number is 2200233, today's auction is presided over by me, I am very happy to serve you, I hope my service can bring good luck to everyone here. ”
Without further ado, the auctioneer slowly lifted the red silk that covered the first item.
"The following is today's first item, the Yuan Dynasty's mackerel algae pattern plate, the back can not see the friends can see the big screen on my left and right, this porcelain, diameter 39.6 cm, porcelain crystal white, beautiful shape, simple pattern, bright color, without any damage, from the seal at the bottom of the plate can be seen from the Jingdezhen kiln, is a rare Yuan Dynasty blue and white porcelain plate. ”
"Let's start the auction, the starting price is 800,000 yuan, and the price increase is not less than 50,000 yuan each time. ”
"I'll give a million!"
"One million and two million!"
"One million and three million!"
......
After a period of fierce competition, the porcelain was sold for 2.6 million yuan and was bought by a well-known private collector in Hongzhou City.
"Cousin, don't look at the first one is more than two million, this is just to warm up, so first take out a good thing to mobilize everyone's enthusiasm, and then, except for the finale of the three, the other transaction prices will generally not exceed two million, and wait a few months to take you to see the year-end auction, that is the big scene, last year the last one alone sold for more than 15 million prices!"
"It's so expensive, alas, I can't understand the world of rich people!" Bai Yuan shook his head and sighed.
The two chatted happily, commenting on each of the next lots, and suddenly heard a sweet and tired voice next to them: "Brother Long, why do you say that some people judge everything and seem to have a lot of opinions, but they don't even dare to ask for a price." ”
"Some people can't afford to buy any in their lives, they can only live happily, what if no one raises the price after he asks for it, the skin has to be picked up by the auction house!"
Bai Yuan's face darkened, although he paid the discharge pay, but now his net worth is only 120,000, although his cousin's pocket money is 50,000 yuan per month, but he is a moonlight clan, and at the end of the month, he has to find his mother to help him, although he has long known that he can't afford the things here, but he is still a little uncomfortable when he is said so, but then again, he really doesn't dare to call ah, in case it is like they said, no one will increase the price after the call, and the auction house will ask for money at home, and the house must not be sold.
He wanted to pretend he didn't hear, but he was attracted by the auctioneer's next words.
"The next item is more special, it was dug out of a coal mine owned by our company, you can see, this is a thumb-sized green ball, after testing it is not a known mineral, but it is very hard, we used a lot of methods......
Before the auctioneer finished speaking, it was like a boiling pot, and everyone began to talk.
"It's not like there's nothing to sell, pick up a rag and make up for it. ”
"It's kind of like the glass ball I used to play with when I was a kid. ”
"I guess this thing is going to be sold, what fool would buy it. ”
"Not necessarily, maybe that wronged boss is rare. ”
......
"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet, I just said that this item is very special, so our company decided that there is no reserve price for this item, okay, now start bidding. Originally, there were some introductions, but in order to stabilize the scene, Xiao Jun had to omit them and quickly announced the start of filming.
As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, the air suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at each other.
Most people are not interested, some people are a little interested, but the bid is high for fear of loss, because this looks like an ordinary bead, through the big screen, you can also see that it is very turbid, not at all like jade, not as crystal clear as jade, nor as round and textured as jade, even if it is hard, it can be worth a few dollars, and if the bid is low, you can't afford to lose this person, after all, you are basically in a circle, look down and don't look up, quote a low price in case it is really photographed, I don't know how long it will be laughed at by others.
Bai Yuan's eyes lit up in the audience, and he thought to himself: Hmph! It's time to slap your face, look at what you two dare to say and dare not bargain!
He held up the number plate in his hand and shouted, "I'll give you a piece!"
