Chapter 8: Treasures at the Auction (continued)
Cheng Ming's offer focused everyone's attention on him, and many people frowned at first, because Cheng Ming was too young, and it was really incredible to spend 50 million to participate in the auction.
The most important thing is that Cheng Ming is relatively fresh, basically has no impression in everyone's minds, and he is not very well dressed, and he does not look like a child of a family.
So, for various reasons, everyone thought that Cheng Ming was likely to be invited by the auction. These elites don't think that because the strength of the commercial banks from all over the world is strong, they will not cheat. This is just the idea of ordinary people, in fact, what will happen to the dirty fingers in the secret.
However, when someone noticed Lu Jiangdong and Xu Yingshan sitting next to Cheng Ming, a trace of surprise flashed in their hearts, this one is the richest man in Yuesha Mansion, and the other is no less than Liu Jiaxiang's appraisal master, can sit with these two, will it be simple?
As a result, the remaining buyers began to get nervous, thinking that they had encountered a strong enemy, and of course, the truth was not much worse.
However, Cheng Ming did not bid next, which made these buyers breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that Cheng Ming was just thinking it was fun and participating.
The auction price kept climbing, during which two people were defeated, and only three people were still raising their cards, but the speed at which they raised their cards had been greatly reduced, and the price increase was generally only about one million.
When the price rose to 67 million, another buyer gave up the competition, leaving only a middle-aged man with a somewhat pale face and a fat man who was sweating profusely from his forehead.
"Seventy million!"
Cheng Ming raised the card again. This shifted the attention of everyone on the scene to him again, and the faces of the middle-aged man and the fat man were a little unsightly. At this time, Cheng Ming was still raising the price, and he must have an idea about this lot. That's not a good thing for them.
"Seventy million, Mr. No. 32 offers seventy million......
The auctioneer's face was very excited, originally, because of the hasty auction, they thought that the final price of this work might not be high, and it was precisely because of this that the company invited Liu Jiaxiang. Now it seems that this trick really worked correctly. And the effect is surprisingly good.
"Seventy-five million!" the fat man raised the price by five million first, trying to scare away the competitors in one go.
It's just that the effect is obviously not good, and the middle-aged man raised his card expressionlessly: "Seven six million!"
This price made the sweat on the fat man's forehead gush like a spring, and it was too late to wipe the sweat, and in the end he looked a little depressed, he should have given up the competition.
"Seventy-seven million. Cheng Ming's expression was very calm, as if it wasn't money, just a pile of paper. Of course, that's exactly what happened.
"Seventy-eight million!" the man gritted his teeth and followed again.
"Eighty million. ”
"Eighty-one million!"
Seeing the middle-aged man looking back at him, Cheng Ming spit lightly: "Eighty-five million." ”
The middle-aged man lowered his head and pondered for a moment. Only then did he grit his teeth and say, "Eighty-six million!"
Cheng Ming smiled and said calmly: "Ninety million." ”
"Wow!"
Seeing that Cheng Ming still dares to raise the price like this, and it is so light-hearted. Many people at the scene gave him a round of applause. And Xu Lezhi's face was full of surprise and admiration.
The middle-aged man's face suddenly turned pale, and he stood up and walked out. When he walked to Cheng Ming's seat, he also glanced deeply at Cheng Ming. Only then did he walk straight out the door.
"Hey, that's interesting!" Cheng Ming looked at the background of the middle-aged man, and a hint of playfulness flashed in his eyes.
As Cheng Ming's last competitor, the departure of the middle-aged man also announced the ownership of the lot. When the auctioneer dropped the hammer, there was immediately warm applause at the scene, and Lu Jiangdong and they all congratulated Cheng Ming.
And Tian Dazhuang looked a little sluggish, he really didn't expect that his friend would have such a side, and he spent 90 million to buy two paintings and calligraphy without blinking his eyes, which brought him a huge impact.
"Brother Cheng, that person seems to have some bad intentions. At this time, Lu Jiangdong leaned over and said softly.
"It's okay, it's just a chicken. Cheng Ming smiled confidently, and then asked softly: "Brother Lu, the little brother has been a little shy recently, and I want to ask you for support, how about it?"
Lu Jiangdong smiled: "No problem, how much?"
"100 million, and I can only pay you back one pill, how about it?" Cheng Ming said with a smile.
Lu Jiangdong's eyes were not only not surprised, but they were filled with excitement, and asked in a condensed voice, "What elixir?"
Cheng Ming first wrote the word "longevity" and then the word "ten" in the palm of Lu Jiangdong's hand, and asked with a smile: "What do you think?"
Lu Jiangdong was stunned for a moment, then an incredible look flashed in his eyes, and he asked in a trembling voice:
"Really?"
"What do you say? But it won't be given to you in a month. ”
The reason why Cheng Ming gave Lu Jiangdong the elixir to increase his life for ten years is also because Lu Jiangdong really treats him as a real friend, and he also tries his best to help his parents.
Now that he has the ability, it is normal to give Lu Jiangdong an elixir that will increase Lu Jiangdong's longevity for ten years in return.
"It should be, it should be. Lu Jiangdong nodded again and again, and then asked, "Brother, will 100 million be too cheap?"
"You don't have to worry about that. Cheng Ming smiled slightly, of course it is wishful thinking for 100 million to want to buy such an elixir, let alone 100 million, even if the price is clearly marked as one billion, someone will definitely buy it.
The auction continued, and the price of the first lot did not affect the subsequent auctions, and because of the stimulation of the first lot, the subsequent auctions were more intense. Almost every lot was sold at the expected price, which made the auctioneer smile from ear to ear.
The last three-color stone, which looks a little gray and inconspicuous, said that it is an extraterrestrial meteorite, and issued an identification certificate.
The price of this meteorite was 500,000, but there were few applicants, and when Cheng Ming bid 800,000, no one else followed. It's not that no one is interested in meteorites, it's just that Cheng Ming's bid just now was too violent, and this is not a good thing, in this case, where can it be given to Cheng Ming?
After the auction, Cheng Ming and the others immediately went to settle the bill, and it was not until they got everything in their hands that Cheng Ming was relieved...... (To be continued......)
