After the beautiful host counted the number in the suitcase, she handed it to Miss Manners, who took the suitcase and went back to the backstage.

Then the host said: "Next, please have a second auction item, an old wood." ”

This time, it was not Miss Manners who came up from the backstage, but a middle-aged man in a suit and sunglasses. In his hand he held a piece of black wood, about four feet long. I think this wood is too bulky, and Miss Manners's soft body can't lift such a heavy piece of wood.

The wood was too big, and this time it was not even covered with a piece of cloth, and it was directly presented in front of everyone's eyes. The camera focuses on the wood, and then on the big screen, a black piece of wood appears, looking dirty and worn. When she was backstage, the host didn't want to wash it to make the wood look cleaner, but she asked someone to wash it many times, but every time the water stains dried, the wood looked like this dilapidated again. In the end, I couldn't, so I had to ask someone to carry it up.

"Old wood, well... It is a good piece of wood, the material is good, thick and heavy, you can do beads, you can also do wood carving, put it in the living room as a handicraft to appreciate the effect must be good, the starting price is 200,000. "I really can't think of how to introduce this piece of wood, the host said such an introduction.

Even Gu Jiajie shook his head and smiled helplessly after hearing this. Even he wasn't optimistic about this wood, and if it weren't for his friendship with those tomb robbers, he wouldn't have agreed to put this piece of wood from the tomb of the dead up for auction here.

There was a cry from the audience, and everyone shook their heads, and no one was optimistic about this piece of wood. To buy good wood, now the mahogany is gradually on fire, two families, five genera, eight categories of thirty-three kinds of mahogany wood, to the monopoly market can be bought, and the color and quality are very good wood, among which the cochin sandalwood is more popular with the public, if you want better, there are also small leaves of red sandalwood and huanghuali for people to buy.

Compare with each other, this piece of wood is dilapidated, there is no pattern, no one will spend 200,000 yuan here to buy this inconspicuous piece of black wood, although there are ebony in the mahogany, there is also black wood, but such a large piece, it will never be worth selling for 200,000.

It stands to reason that this second treasure should be better than the first one, but the thing that everyone sees on the stage really makes people not interested in it.

Even if you deliberately show off your wealth, you won't spend your money on an object that has no value to pretend to be extravagant, in that case, the mentality of showing off your wealth is too obvious, and it will definitely attract jokes. The rich people present are all characters with heads and faces, and no one wants to be laughed at by other family members because of this kind of thing.

Therefore, the host waited on the stage for a few minutes, and still no one opened his mouth to bid.

The host was a little embarrassed and couldn't help asking, "Do you have any friends who are willing to bid?"

The audience was silent, and no one answered. Someone couldn't help it, and said to the boss who just wanted to take a picture of the Ruyi pot for 500,000 yuan and give it to his son for the night, "I bought it for your son." ”

The boss said angrily: "Bullshit, what are you doing with it, do you want to hold it high? Why don't you buy it!"

"Haha. Everyone laughed, and the host on the stage was even more embarrassed when he heard the laughter, he has been in the industry for many years, and after the auction items in his hands, it is as low as tens of thousands and as high as tens of millions, but it has never been auctioned, but today this piece of black wood is about to be auctioned.

I really didn't expect that today's piece of wood would become a stain on the history of my career. Although it is normal for there to be unsuccessful auctions in the auction, she is as arrogant as she is, and she regards the unsuccessful auction as a shame in her heart. I don't know why Mr. Gu put such a thing up for auction, really, she thought unhappily in her heart.

The three Wu Hou standing in the corridor had nothing to do with themselves, hung up high, and looked at the field with interest.

Mu Haisen said with a smile: "It's fun now, Gu Jiajie's auction, there are very few unsuccessful auctions, I guess, after this thing is unauctioned, Gu Jiajie will buy it at his own expense, and then send the money to the original owner." He is too good to make friends, and he would rather suffer himself than disappoint his friends. ”

Duanmu Shenjiu took over and said, "According to what you say, this Gu Jiajie is a good character. ”

"That's it. Mu Haisen nodded and said: "Now among the rivers and lakes, the highest voice and the highest popularity belong to him Gu Jiajie, everyone says that he will be the next leader of the Martial Arts Alliance." ”

Hearing the three words of the Martial Dao Alliance, Wu Hou asked, "Martial Dao Alliance?

"It's an organization, and all factions are involved. Mu Haisen said casually.

Duanmu Shenjiu looked at the black wood on the stage, thought about it for a while, and told Wu Hou: "Wu Hou, pay for this wood." ”

"What?" Wu Hou looked at Duanmu Shenjiu in surprise, thinking that he had misheard.

Duanmu Shenjiu pointed to the piece of wood on the platform, "I bought that wood." ”

"Damn... Master, are you alright?" Wu Hou couldn't help but burst into foul language, feeling that Duanmu Shenjiu's idea was ridiculous.

Duanmu Shenjiu ignored Wu Hou and ordered, "I told you to buy it." ”

You have a sick brain, right? Wu Hou couldn't help but think in his heart. This piece of broken wood is a rare thing, what are you buying it for, this is not a loser!

"Our money is here to buy a beauty picture, Master, what should we do if we don't have enough money for this thing?"

"Buy it first. Duanmu Shenjiu said lightly.

Mu Haisen was also very puzzled, and said, "You're not kidding, are you? No one wants something, what do you want it for?"

"I naturally have my point. Duanmu Shenjiu said impatiently: "Wu Hou, hurry up." ”

The host on the stage looked at Gu Jiajie with inquiring eyes. Gu Jiajie nodded silently and motioned for her to take back the wood and continue to the auction of the next auction item.

At this time, Wu Hou in the corridor reluctantly raised his hand and said weakly: "200,000, I bought it." ”

The words were amazing, and everyone looked at Wu Hou, even Gu Jiajie, who also looked at him. Everyone didn't expect that a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old would be willing to pay 200,000 yuan to buy this piece of broken wood. At this time, Mu Haisen, standing beside Wu Hou, felt very embarrassed.

Someone secretly laughed, "Hehe, there are really people who are willing to buy it." ”

Someone sneered, "Hmph, this stupid hat." ”

The host on the stage was overjoyed, looked at Wu Hou in surprise, for fear that he would regret it, and hurriedly began to say: "200,000 once, 200,000 twice, 200,000 three times, deal!"

Then, the middle-aged man, holding the wood, walked over and put it vertically beside Wu Hou. Wu Hou reluctantly took out 200,000 yuan from the bag and gave the money to the man with a painful face.

The man took the money and left with a smile, leaving Wu Hou with a sad face, muttering over and over again: "Fool, what a fool." ”

There were people around who looked at Wu Hou with a smile, Wu Hou put the wood in front of him angrily, stared at his eyes and said loudly: "What do you see, you have money, you can't be willful!"

Several people laughed, and Wu gritted his teeth angrily. He looked at Duanmu Shenjiu aggrievedly and said, "Master, what are you asking me to buy such a thing? It's stupid, heavy, and makes people laugh, and the most important thing is that it's 200,000 yuan! It's enough for us to save money and spend it for several years!"

Mu Haisen also looked pity, looking at the wood, thinking about the 200,000 cash, he felt sorry for Wu Hou. Duanmu Shenjiu said with a normal face: "Let's talk about it when we go home." He didn't explain much to Wu Hou and Mu Haisen, and then looked at the third auction item that was about to be invited out on the stage.

In the host's loud introduction, the third auction item was brought up by two hostesses carrying a tray.

"Today's third auction item is a picture of a beauty, the dynasty is unknown, but conservatively estimated, it is also 1,500 years old. The face of the woman in the painting is rare in the world, like a fairy in the sky, and it should not be owned by the world..."With the introduction of the host, the two hostesses held the two ends of the beauty picture respectively and slowly opened the painting in their hands.

The length of the painting is one person high, and the height of the woman in the painting is similar to the height of the woman in reality, and it is drawn on paper without enlargement or shrinking.

Look at the woman in the painting, dressed in a gorgeous costume, with bright eyes and bright teeth, her eyes are like autumn water, and when she stops in the painting at will, she is already looking forward to it. Especially the pair of peach blossom eyes under the willow eyebrows, as if they were looking at everyone present, two rosy lips on and down, also like two pale red petals, the paper shook gently, as if to open the mouth to speak, a simple and elegant appearance. But a half-unsheathed sword in his hand added a bit of heroism to the woman, making people want to come closer, but they were forced to dare not approach, so they could only watch from afar.

The men present were all amazed by the appearance of the woman in the painting. Seeing this beautiful person in the painting, and then thinking about the mothers-in-law who get along with each other on weekdays, they are really vulgar fans.

Duanmu Shenjiu looked at this familiar woman, his heart was full of mixed feelings, the beloved he had seen in his sleep countless times, after a thousand years, he had long been separated by yin and yang. Now that time has passed, things are people, see you again, you are in the painting, and I am still in this red dust, and I cannot be liberated.

The eyes of the woman in the painting seem to be able to speak, and she also looks at Duanmu Shenjiu with a smile on the corner of her mouth. Duanmu Shenjiu said in a low voice: "Wan'er, I haven't seen you for a long time..."

Wu Hou and Mu Haisen looked at the big screen blankly, thinking, it is really beautiful, and it is stunning.

"Master, is this the master?" Wu Hou asked blankly.

Duanmu Shenjiu replied with a complicated mood: "Yes, this is your master who is pitiful just by looking at it, and people dare not blaspheme." ”

Mu Haisen also said dumbfoundedly: "It's really beautiful, I've never seen such a beautiful woman, if she is still alive, there must be countless men who are willing to fall in love with her." What did you just say? This is Wu Hou's master?" he looked at Duanmu Shenjiu in surprise.

The hostess on the stage, standing on the side of the painting, was instantly compared. She moved a few steps unnaturally, looked at the eager eyes of all the men present, and said, "The starting price, 500,000!"

The host's voice pulled the intoxicated crowd out of their fantasies. Wu Hou complained bitterly in his heart, he really didn't expect that the starting price of this beauty picture would be exactly 500,000. But the money in his hand has been used to buy the broken wood, and it has cost 200,000 yuan, and now even if you count the 20,000 yuan you won, it is only 320,000, and there is still 180,000 yuan not enough to bid.

"What can I do..."Wu Hou became melancholy and looked at Duanmu Shenjiu.

Duanmu Shenjiu was also stunned, but he didn't expect that his picture of a beauty, put it now, just the starting price, will cost 500,000. How did he know that modern rich people like to collect antiques, calligraphy and paintings, some old, but very precious paintings, are many people who love to collect, are very fond of objects.

Wu Hou whispered weakly: "Even if you count the money I saved myself, and add up all our money together, there is still a gap of seventy or eighty thousand to reach 500,000..."

Mu Haisen looked at the two masters and apprentices who were frowning, and said, "It was good not to buy the wood just now, but now it's good, the money is not enough." ”

At this time, Wu Hou looked at Mu Haisen and said tentatively: "Or, Brother Sen, will you lend me 100,000 yuan first?"

"I'll go, you're quite good at picking the right time, this time the bones have found me to borrow money. Mu Haisen was stunned, his body couldn't help but retreat, and he looked at Wu Hou in horror.

Duanmu Shenjiu also looked at Mu Haisen, and pleaded: "If it's convenient, please do me a favor first." ”

Wu Hou also begged: "Borrow me first, and I'll find a way to pay you back afterwards." "Talking about borrowing money, I was already thinking about how many games I had to play to get enough of the 100,000 yuan.

Mu Haisen saw that the master and apprentice were very sincere, and reluctantly took out a bank card, and said distressedly: "There are more than 90,000 here, which is the ration of my family, just count on these to live, you have to pay me back as soon as possible!"

Wu Hou took the bank card and nodded hurriedly: "It must be." ”

Next, Wu Hou raised his arm and shouted, "Five hundred thousand!"

Everyone who was still intoxicated by the beauty of the woman in the painting looked at the young man again.

"This kid is quite enthusiastic, and he is bidding again. ”

"It's just, it doesn't look like a rich person, everyone is standing in the corridor, at most a millionaire, how can you be so willing to spend money, this is 500,000. ”

In the central rich area, several rich people looked at Wu Hou, and some people with extreme lust smiled and said: "Young man, the blood is strong, how can such a beautiful woman be able to eat in the house." ”

Immediately the man also raised his arm and shouted, "I will give 600,000." ”
