Lin Cheng felt the power of thought coming from the unknown wood as soon as he saw it. There was an inevitable connection in it, which made Lin Cheng feel in a trance. He seemed to have caught something in his heart, but it seemed that Nothing at all.
Isn¡¯t the state of becoming a spirit the function of divine thoughts? An idea flashed in Lin Cheng's mind, and he seemed to have found a way to advance his skills.
"This string of sandalwood plants blessed by the Living Buddha was presented by the Earl of Taipingshan in Hong Kong. It is entrusted to be auctioned. The starting price is one million. Anyone who is lucky enough to do so is invited to bid."
One million for a string of Buddhist beads is simply outrageous. If it were made of jewelry and jade, it would be a different story. But for this unknown wood, even if it is agarwood, the price of one million is not low. What's more, it's US dollars.
For a time, there was not a single bidder.
Lin Cheng's thoughts just now were focused on the people around him. He wanted to see what was so magical about this thing, but he could only feel the faint power of thought, and nothing else.
"Blessed Buddhist beads are not easy to obtain. Don't you think about it? This is not very common."
Even if the host is eloquent, he can't attract everyone, because everyone here is rich and not a person with no eyesight. Even if it is charity, if it is obviously higher than the actual value, then no one is willing to do it. Taken advantage of. It's not that they can't afford the money, it's just a small amount of money. The most important thing is that everyone here is acquaintances. Anyone who wants to be taken advantage of will probably be laughed at in the circle.
"1.2 million."
When the host heard this quotation, he was very happy. The failure to sell the items was a sign of his lack of ability. In the future, it will become more and more difficult for him to get along in this circle. An auctioneer who cannot sell items is not a successful auctioneer. , it is conceivable that unsuccessful auctioneers will be eliminated by the industry.
But using skills to sell items at high prices that might otherwise go unsold is not something that can be accomplished by just using skills. A superb auctioneer needs extensive knowledge and language skills.
"Okay, this gentleman is a person who is destined to the Buddha at first glance. Only those who are destined to the Buddha can see the value of this string of beads." The auctioneer complimented the man sitting at the end, thanking him for not Let this item go unsold.
Many people present looked at the gentleman who made the bid. You must know that the people present are all wealthy people from Nanyang. No one is short of several million, but there is no history at all to spend 1.2 million US dollars to buy such a car. Sandalwood beads, no one is willing to spend this money.
"Ah, isn't this Master Huang? The price Master Huang just bid?"
"It is indeed Master Huang."
Many rich people present know this Master Huang. Master Huang can be said to be the great master of Nanyang magic. He is skilled in astronomy, feng shui, and both yin and yang. He has a very high status in Nanyang.
This is also very strange. In China, the birthplace of Feng Shui, Feng Shui was classified as a feudal superstition, but after it spread abroad, it took root all over the world.
The founder of the Republic of China regarded Feng Shui as a feudal superstition, but he himself believed in Feng Shui. He never fully understood the motto 8341, but he named the Central Guard Division Unit 8341. The story that Mao Runzhi and Jiang Zhongzheng were no more than five years old and a generation of Feng Shui wizards has been widely circulated.
Is it because Mao is short-sighted or has little knowledge? Why does he believe in Feng Shui so much? Or is Jiang ignorant and incompetent, pinning his hopes on physiognomy? No, ** is well-read and knowledgeable, and Chairman Chiang is definitely not unlearned or unskilled. Precisely because they hold great power and have access to so many information channels, some things cannot be traced to their roots and have to be explained by Feng Shui.
Although most people in the country firmly believe in atheism and believe that there is no god in the world, they do not know that this is a method used by the rulers. There is a huge difference between ruling a country by law and ruling a country by God.
The more senior and powerful people are, the more they believe in Feng Shui. On the contrary, Feng Shui is regarded as a heretical doctrine among the common people.
Master Huang has been living in China for a long time, barely making ends meet, but once he went abroad, he ushered in the peak of his career. For more than ten years in Nanyang, Master Huang relied on Feng Shui to accumulate a huge wealth, and was also favored by wealthy people. Everyone is chasing each other, who doesn¡¯t want to have good Feng Shui fortune?
When the rich people heard Master Huang¡¯s price call, many of them were a little anxious. One million US dollars is a drop in the bucket to them. Previously, no one took pictures because they felt that the sandalwood beads were not worth that much money at all. But now Master Huang, the great master in the Feng Shui field, has added 200,000 US dollars as soon as he opened the door, and called 1.2 million, and everyone is a little itchy.
But even though these people feel itchy, they stillBut he can't really challenge Master Huang, because Master Huang's methods are unpredictable. In the magic world, if Master Huang wants to regulate a businessman, perhaps an ordinary stone can change the person's fate. Doing business is all about wealth. Without wealth, everything is in vain. If you offend Master Huang, Master Huang will make you lose money easily.
Master Huang also guessed the situation of his bidding, so he waited until the last bid. I gave you the opportunity. If you don't bid, then I will bid at the last moment. Don't make any trouble. If you don't understand at this time, If you praise me, then don't blame this master for his ruthless methods.
Precisely because of taking these issues into consideration, Master Huang was reserved in his bid until the end. If this sandalwood bead did not have a magical power of telepathy, Master Huang would not have made it easily.
Master Huang has been a Feng Shui practitioner for so many years, and he always carries a compass with him. In fact, Master Huang feels that this string of sandalwood beads is a bit mysterious. It emits a faint black luster. It has obviously been played with for a long time. When Master Huang took out the compass in his arms, he saw that the pointer on the compass was spinning smoothly. This was obviously due to the amazing magnetic field on this string of sandalwood beads. Generally, objects with magnetic fields only caused the compass pointer to swing slightly, but at this moment the pointer But it was spinning like crazy. Of course Master Huang knew the difference: this is definitely a treasure.
Lin Cheng sensed the mysterious power of the sandalwood beads through spiritual induction, while Master Huang sensed it through the compass. Although the techniques were different, they had the same purpose.
"This gentleman who is very close to Buddha added 200,000 yuan as soon as he made the purchase. Obviously he has a special liking for this thing. If you are a person who respects Buddha, you can also try this unique string of blessings. Exceeding sandalwood beads.¡±
Although the auctioneer has a bright tongue, Master Huang's identity is here, and no one will offend a master of magic for a treasure that he cannot understand.
The auctioneer may have noticed the situation before him, and he was helpless. However, although no one raised the bid, it was not considered a failed auction after all, and an additional two hundred thousand was added.
"One million and two hundred thousand for the first time, one million and two hundred thousand for the second time, one and two million for the second time,"
"two millions!"
Before the auctioneer could say his third word, the hammer in his hand was about to fall with his own voice, but suddenly someone shouted a high price of two million, and his hammer head was already going down, but when he heard this The sound of two million made him feel happy, but the falling hammer head was already moving at a high speed and it was difficult to stop halfway. Helplessly, he tilted the hammer head and smashed it to the side. Although the hammer was about to fall, the auctioneer quickly said, "Okay, there is a gentleman who paid two million, two million. What a perfect number this is, and it is destined to be the Buddha?"
The auctioneer is indeed very capable. His voice masks the sound of his hammer. He continues to use his sharp tongue, even though he doesn¡¯t think this string of sandalwood beads is worth so much?
"This gentleman, it was this gentleman who made the bid just now. He immediately paid two million. This string of sandalwood beads has the mysterious power of blessing. This young gentleman is very discerning."
The bidder was of course Lin Cheng. He had long felt the difference in this string of sandalwood beads. Just now he was using his own spirit to try to feel the mysterious power on this string of sandalwood beads, but someone else raised the price first. .
"Two million and two million!" Master Huang shouted another price while the host was eloquent.
"Just now, this gentleman added another 200,000 yuan, and it has reached 2.2 million. It is obvious that this gentleman is bound to get this string of sandalwood beads."
"Three million!" Lin Cheng called out another price. This price made Master Huang feel a little uneasy. I understand that it is not easy to pick up the slack today.
The most important thing that Lin Cheng lacks is money. He is not afraid if someone raises the price. Anyway, today is a charity. If you want to increase the price, then increase it to the end.
"Four million!" Master Huang didn't want to increase the price bit by bit, so he directly raised the price by one million, hoping to force the young man who was bidding him to give up.
"Five million!" Lin Cheng, who is not short of money, will certainly not show weakness. There is absolutely no reason to let go of something that interests him.
"Six million!"
Master Huang called out a price, which was the highest price he could pay. Although he was called a master and had no money at all, the price was too high and it was obviously not worth the money.
Although Master Huang is also worth hundreds of millions, this includes real estate and other fixed assets. He only has tens of millions of cash on hand. If he has to spend nearly 100 million to buy a sandalwood plant, he himself feels that the gains outweigh the losses. Although this bead is indeed very mysterious and possesses powerful mysterious power, Master Huang cannot say how much this power will help him.
Lin Cheng looked back and saw that the middle-aged man who had been bidding with him casually increased the price.??Two million, "eight million!"
This price is not RMB, but US dollars. Eight million US dollars is equivalent to 50 million RMB. Lin Cheng, who controlled the world's crude oil futures market, has no concept of money now. In his eyes, money is just a number. It is common to earn hundreds of millions of dollars a day by manipulating crude oil futures. If he ignores the market, it is possible to make hundreds of billions in one day. However, the consequence of this is that the order of the futures market is disrupted, capital withdraws in large quantities, and it is difficult for the market to recover.
Tai Chi is all about the long flow of water, so why not make money!
Master Huang doesn't plan to call anymore now. His entire net worth is only a million dollars. And judging from the situation, this young man has no intention of stopping at all. It seems that as long as he increases the price, he will keep increasing the price. .
However, when the rich people saw Master Huang stopped, their thoughts became excited. Who is this young man? Basically no one knew him, which meant that he was not a local rich man, but a foreigner. It looked like he was not cutting off the beard with Master Huang, but rather he came here specifically for this string of sandalwood beads.
?????????? Master Huang is no longer bidding, so can he and others bid a price? Even if this string of sandalwood beads is not so valuable, you can still get involved with Master Huang through this string of beads and let Master Huang do some Feng Shui advice, and the income will be more than tens of millions.
However, at the current price, not many people can challenge Lin Cheng's eight million yuan. Fifty million yuan is definitely not a small amount. If you use this money to buy a villa, how big will it be? There, at least you won't lose money. But this string of tiny sandalwood beads costs 50 million? This is definitely a big deal.
"Eight and a half million!" Xu Hengtong, the king of Nanyang real estate, shouted a price. Real estate has the closest relationship with Feng Shui. He wanted to use this string of beads as a bridge to let Master Huang make a good plan for the blue sea and blue sky he wanted to develop.
"Nine million!" Tula, the rubber king of Nanyang, also believed in Feng Shui. If Master Huang fought for six million, it must be a good thing. In recent years, the number of cars in the world has increased sharply, and the rubber used in tires has also become popular. Tula has been popular for several years. If he wants to become more popular, he needs Master Huang to give him some guidance. .
Rong Bodong knew Master Huang and was the only person in the room who knew the details of Lin Cheng. He had no intention of competing for the bead. The bead was not worth that much money at all. Besides, the money Lin Cheng poured into it was not worth it. But when he mentioned his hard-earned money, he got angry. I don¡¯t know what the old man¡¯s next move is, and he didn¡¯t tell himself. Rong Bodong felt that the longer he lived, the more frustrated he became.
"Twelve million!" Lin Cheng added three million in one breath, which made Xu Hengtong and Tula feel uncertain. Who is this young man? I don¡¯t know which rich second generation came out to do mischief and used his father¡¯s money as money.
When Tula raised the price to 12.5 million, he couldn't hold it anymore. Xu Hengtong didn't bid at all. Lin Cheng directly offered 15 million. At this time, not only Tula and Xu Hengtong, but also Even Master Huang and the auctioneer were dumbfounded. Fifteen million, that is, 100 million yuan to buy a string of sandalwood beads? Those national treasures such as monkey heads and horse heads are not worth this much. Besides, they are national treasures. Can they be compared with this string of small sandalwood beads?
As soon as the auction hammer rang, the auctioneer's face was filled with joy, "Congratulations to this handsome gentleman, you have obtained this precious string of sandalwood beads blessed by the Living Buddha. Thank you again for your contribution to charity!"
No wonder the auctioneer is so flattering, the tens of millions of dollars sold for a string of sandalwood beads is enough to be recorded in the history of auctions.
