Chapter 77: The Auction Begins
Ten minutes later, in the expectation of everyone, this charity auction finally kicked off.
The first person to ascend to the rostrum of the venue was a middle-aged man wearing a black suit, a flat head, and gold-rimmed glasses.
The middle-aged man bowed slightly to everyone in the audience, and then spoke with a calm face.
"Good evening everyone, I'm Yi Hong, and it's an honor to be here with you today. ”
"In tonight's charity auction, the proceeds from the auction will be used as a special fund for the construction of education in Checheng City and for subsidizing some poor students. ”
"On behalf of the Checheng Municipal Government, the Checheng Education Bureau, and all the students of Checheng, thank you!"
Speaking of this, Yi Hong bowed deeply to everyone in the audience.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Immediately afterwards, everyone in the audience applauded their hands vigorously.
When the applause gradually stopped, Yi Hong continued his speech.
"Of course, we would like to thank Ms. He Yuanhe from Yanjing. ”
"The fact that this auction was able to take place and that everyone was able to gather at the Star of the Han River tonight was all made possible by Ms. Ho. ”
"Now, please welcome Ms. He to the stage to speak!"
After Yi Hong finished speaking, he directly took the lead and applauded.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Suddenly, there was an endless stream of applause from the audience, and it was even more intense than just now, I don't know how many times!
Most of the people present were from the mall, and the reason why they willingly came to this charity auction tonight was to promote their reputation, and on the other hand, they were also looking forward to picking up the leaks.
However, the most important reason is precisely because of this Ms. He from Yanjing.
Although most of these people don't know He Yuan's true identity.
However, they knew that He Yuan was a big man in Checheng City, including the city government and the Hu family, and all forces treated each other respectfully!
If they can get to know He Yuan because of this auction, even if they are just praised by He Yuan, their road in Checheng will definitely be smoother in the future!
In the warm applause of everyone, He Yuan, who was dressed in formal clothes, slowly stepped onto the rostrum.
Perhaps because Liu Lao has recovered, He Yuan's complexion looks a little better today.
"Thank you!" After He Yuan came to the stage, he gently spit out two words in his mouth, but everyone in the audience fell silent in an instant.
After a pause, He Yuan continued to begin her speech.
"Thank you for being invited, and thank you for your dedication to the cause of education in Checheng......"
He Yuan's speech is nothing special, it is all the language of some programmatic words.
Despite this, everyone in the audience was still quiet and listened with relish.
And nodded from time to time, looking deeply touched.
"It's just an auction, as for this, it's a complete waste of time", after listening to Yi Hong and He Yuan's boring speeches one after another, Long Hao said a little impatiently.
"Mr. Long, be cautious, Ms. He's identity is extraordinary, you may cause some trouble", hearing Long Hao's words, Hu Qiwen's face changed slightly, and she reminded Long Hao in a low voice.
"After Ms. He finishes speaking, the auction will begin, so please bear with me a little longer. ”
"Isn't it extraordinary", Long Hao shook his head slightly, whispered in his mouth, and continued to drink.
Long Hao and Hu Qiwen spoke in a very small voice, but they were still noticed by those who cared.
This caring person is Xu Wei's father, Xu Ruhu.
Xu Ruhu believed that the death of his son Xu Wei must have something to do with Long Hao.
Originally, Xu Wei thought that Long Hao had a relationship with the Tang family, so he didn't act rashly.
And just now, Long Hao and Lin Yinghao had a grudge, Tang Jing directly broke off the relationship with Long Hao, and Xu Ruhu planned to find someone to deal with Long Hao after the auction.
But he didn't expect that Long Hao would be friendly with Hu Qiwen again, which made Xu Ruhu a little jealous again.
But now, Long Hao actually criticized He Yuan in private, which made Xu Ruhu see an opportunity.
As long as Xu Ruhu revealed it at will, Long Hao was disrespectful to He Yuan.
Even if He Yuan himself doesn't say anything, there must be a lot of people in Checheng who are willing to stand up and stand up for He Yuan to find trouble for Long Hao.
At that time, even the Hu family probably had to consider severing their relationship with Long Hao.
Once the Hu family and Long Hao have cleared up their relationship, then he Xu Ruhu will definitely let Long Hao die without a place to be buried!
Thinking in his heart, Xu Ruhu's eyes flashed with cruel light.
As for Xu Ruhu's thoughts, Long Hao didn't know.
However, even if Long Hao knew, he wouldn't take it to heart.
Not to mention that Long Hao is not disrespectful to He Yuan, even if he is really disrespectful, will He Yuan find trouble with Long Hao?
Even if he could, Long Hao would not have any fears.
As for the people of other forces in Checheng, in Long Hao's eyes, they are just local chickens and dogs!
The reason why Xu Ruhu had such a ridiculous idea can only be said that he knows too little about Long Hao!
Hu Qiwen was right, after He Yuan finished speaking, the auction really began.
The person in charge of presiding over the auction was a fat man of short stature, who was said to be the owner of the Star of the Han River, and his name was Yang Xing.
"Everyone, I think everyone can't wait, I won't delay everyone's time, the auction has officially begun!"
"The first auction item is a purple clay pot from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, the starting price is 1 million, and the price increase shall not be less than 100,000 yuan each time, and the bidding will start now!"
As soon as Yang Xing's voice fell, someone immediately shouted.
"One and a half million!"
"Two million!"
“......”
It didn't take long for the purple clay pot to be sold for 5 million, and it was finally auctioned for 5.8 million.
"Below is the second auction item, a pair of jade earrings made of emeralds, with a starting price of two million!"
"Third Lot ......"
“......”
The auction went very smoothly and soon reached the ninth lot.
"The ninth auction item is an elixir with supernatural functions, called the Rejuvenation Fruit. This fruit, as its name suggests, can give dying people a new lease of life!"
Hearing Yang Xing's introduction, everyone in the venue was shocked.
The person who came with the intention of picking up the leak, at this moment, there was a bright light in his eyes.
The richer a person is, the more he cherishes his life, and the attraction of this fruit to everyone is undoubtedly very great.
After everyone talked for a while and quieted down a little, Yang Xing quoted the reserve price of the auction.
"The starting price of the fruit is 10 million!"
Compared with the previous times, the speed of the person who grabbed the auction this time was many times faster.
Before Yang Xing's words fell, someone had already quoted the price.
"I'll give fifteen million!"
"Twenty million!"
“......”
In the entire auction hall, there was a sudden crowd.
"Shoot it!" Ignoring everyone's distractions, Long Hao said lightly to Hu Qiwen.
