</strong>Qi Xiang was dumbfounded as Du Le and Jiang Yun walked into the venue.
Qi Aotian looked at his son and was very dissatisfied. Compared with Du Le, this son was obviously inferior. However, he did not overestimate his ability to deal with Du Le. I really don't know what he was thinking. He also needed to do something. what
Du Le and Jiang Yun walked into the auction site
The layout of the auction is very simple. In front of the podium is a flat table covered with a red tablecloth. Next to the table is a podium with a microphone and a small wooden hammer.
There is a white screen on the wall directly opposite the auditorium behind the rostrum.
Sixty percent of the seats in the venue are already occupied.
Except for the seats in the first and second rows, which have names, the rest of the seats do not have names written on them. Obviously, guests are allowed to choose their own seats.
Du Le pulled Jiang Yun to sit on the right side of the fifth row. Qi Xiang, who came in later, also sat on the fifth row, but on the left side. However, Du Le did not see Qi Aotian enter the meeting, which made Du Le feel very uncomfortable. Strange, he couldn't help but search the crowd with his eyes.
Qi Xiang secretly hates Du Le. When he learns that Du Le is the boss of Meishi Xuan, he is already 90% sure that Du Le is the one who smashed his luxury car.
However, Qi Xiang doesn¡¯t have any evidence. However, Qi Xiang is not a serious person to begin with. From the fact that he asked gangsters to smash Du Le¡¯s new car, we know that he is very narrow-minded.
After Qi Aotian left due to temporary matters, Qi Xiang decided that Du Le must be saved at the auction later.
At eight o'clock sharp, Li Ze walked into the venue on time
Li Ze first expressed his gratitude to those present with a smile, briefly talked about the theme of the charity auction, and then announced that the auction had officially begun.
Jiang Yun sat below and said to Du Le with a smile: "Mr. Li is indeed a well-known Chinese business leader at home and abroad. He is my idol."
"Really? Do you want to get an autograph later?" Du Le asked with a smile, a bit teasing.
When he first entered the venue, Du Le saw that Jiang Yun seemed to be very curious about everything in the venue. He also carefully observed the decoration, personnel arrangement, process introduction, etc. Du Le really didn't expect that she would suddenly say Li Ze is her idol
"What are you talking about? Who is Mr. Li? He is not an actor or star. Asking for a signature is too formal. You must be respectful!" Jiang Yun was a little dissatisfied with Du Le's understatement.
Du Le was speechless. In front of him, Li Ze was actually just an ordinary old man. And because of Li Ze's desire to repay his kindness, Li Ze always treated Du Le in a pleasant manner. Therefore, Du Le actually had no chance to experience it personally. To feel Li Ze¡¯s strength and majesty
"The auction has begun." Du Le saw that the first lot of the auction was placed on the table in front of him on an exquisite tray.
"The first auction item is a bracelet made of natural purple jade. The starting price is 100,000 yuan, and the increase must not be less than 1,000 yuan."
The auction started, and the auctioneer briefly introduced the first lot
"One hundred thousand"
"One hundred and ten thousand"
"One hundred and fifty thousand"
"Two hundred thousand"
The price of purple jade bracelets quickly doubled
"So beautiful." Jiang Yun didn't pay much attention to the sound of auctions at the auction. Instead, he concentrated on the high-definition video on the screen. The purple jade bracelet was exuding a charming brilliance.
Looking at Jiang Yun's infatuated expression, Du Le shook his head. He couldn't figure out why women would like such useless gems. In other words, many women like jewelry made of sparkling gems.
"Twenty-two thousand," Du Le said, holding up the number plate.
Jiang Yun glanced at Du Le unexpectedly and asked with expectation: "Who are you buying it for?"
Du Le smiled and said: "Buy a bracelet for my mother."
Du Le's hearing was very good and he heard Jiang Yun's words clearly. At first, Du Le really wanted to give the bracelet to Jiang Yun, but when Jiang Yun asked, he was a little embarrassed, so he changed his mind and said it was for him. Mother
"Three hundred thousand!" A proud voice came from Du Le's left side
Du Le turned around and saw Qi Xiang staring at him with an arrogant look, making it clear that he wanted to provoke Du Le
Du Le smiled, feeling that the other party was like a clown
"Three hundred and one thousand," Du Le said calmly, holding up the sign.
"Four hundred thousand!" Qi Xiang held up the sign again, feeling proud that money was not important to him, and doing good deeds was not his main purpose. He just wanted to hurt Du Le's face. So what about the boss of Meishi Xuan Company? It¡¯s just a small company with a market capitalization of just a few million. If it weren¡¯t for havingThis secret recipe of palace seasoning is simply not acceptable to the Qi Group.
"Fifty one thousand," Du Le raised the sign and continued.
"Fifty-two thousand." Qi Xiang raised his head reflexively and was about to say five hundred thousand. When he realized that Du Le said half-a-million, he quickly changed his mind.
Du Le gave Qi Xiang a disdainful look, raised the sign and continued: "Six hundred thousand"
Hearing this, Qi Xiang paused. The current bid for this purple jade bracelet has obviously exceeded its value. It does not seem to be worth the money when comparing prices. Qi Xiang hesitated for a moment and turned to look at Du Le.
Unexpectedly, this glance met Du Le's disdainful gaze. Qi Xiang became angry and said, "Seven hundred thousand!"
"Stop taking pictures, it's too expensive." Jiang Yun quickly pulled Du Le's sleeve and persuaded him.
Du Le looked at Jiang Yun with a smile and said: "It's okay, I have the sense to bid one last time."
When Qi Xiang saw Du Le and Jiang Yun whispering to each other, he was filled with jealousy, and the anger in his heart seemed to be about to burst out of his chest.
"This gentleman bids 700,000 yuan, is there anyone who continues to bid?" the auctioneer shouted on the stage. He did not expect that the first auction item would cause such a sensation, and he was very excited. Looking at Du Le, expecting him to bid again
After Du Le and Jiang Yun finished speaking, they smiled at the auctioneer. He did not disappoint the auctioneer. He raised his placard and said: "One million."
Wow! Many people in the auction were in an uproar
You know, most of the people sitting here are businessmen. The most important thing for businessmen is to be harmonious and make money.
In their eyes, the price of the first lot was so high because of the vindictiveness of two young men, Du Le and Qi Xiang. However, no matter how vindictive the two were, they did not expect that a pair of about thirty A jade bracelet worth tens of thousands of yuan can fetch a price of one million yuan.
Many people asked about Du Le and Qi Xiang, who were vying for the lot. By the way, Jiang Yun, who was sitting next to Du Le, also attracted a lot of attention. Du Le's original goal of bringing Jiang Yun out was achieved - to increase Jiang Yun's number. Cloud's popularity
The uproar all over the place aroused Qi Xiang's feelings, and the vanity in his heart was rapidly expanding. However, Du Le bid again, and his eyes seemed to despise him, which made Qi Xiang very unhappy.
On impulse, Qi Xiang raised the sign again and shouted: "1.2 million!"
Du Le looked at Qi Xiang in shock. He really didn't expect that this rich second generation would be so persistent. He originally spent a million to buy a bracelet. Du Le thought it was a sure thing and the price was too high. He just treated his children as their filial piety. Just buy a bracelet for your mother, it will be nice
The most important thing is that this is the first lot. Du Le bought it at a high price, which can be regarded as a practical action to support Li Ze's charity auction. After all, he doesn't know how many lots there will be and how much they are worth, so he is the first to get off to a good start. It's also good to have a good sign
Considering that he had just agreed to Jiang Yun, Du Le felt a little pity, but he had no choice but to give up and continue bidding.
"One million and two hundred thousand for the third time, the deal is done! This purple jade bracelet belongs to this customer," the auctioneer shouted with a smile, and then made the final decision, bang!
As soon as the auctioneer announced the result, Qi Xiang turned to Du Le with a look of dismay on his face.
Who would have known that Du Le didn¡¯t even have Qi Xiang¡¯s side?
" Du Le is very indifferent. Purple jade bracelet is good if you can buy it, but it doesn't matter if you can't buy it. Qi Xiang? He's just a clown. It doesn't matter. Du Le doesn't care at all.
Qi Xiang didn't get the envious scene that Du Le expected, and was a little annoyed. When he calmed down, he seemed to hear someone whispering, as if they were laughing at him for spending so much money to buy such a bracelet. Qi Xiang successfully grabbed the auction item. The excitement suddenly turned to freezing point, and even my own felt that it was nothing.
Next, for several consecutive auctions, Du Le never raised his placard again, which made Qi Xiang, who was deliberately trying to target, feel that he had no power to use.
What makes Qi Xiang angry the most is that what he wants most is Jiang Yun¡¯s attention, but the latter has no reaction at all
Du Le didn¡¯t know how Qi Xiang felt, nor did he want to know his reaction.
While paying attention to the auction items, Du Le chatted with Jiang Yun in a low voice from time to time. Du Le felt very good.
"I think this thing is pretty good, what do you think?" Jiang Yun came up with the auction items one by one, and had to comment on each one.
"Well, not bad" Du Le responded, or listened carefully and nodded.
"The next auction item, an ancient jade jewelry, has a starting price of 20,000, and each increase in price must not be less than 2,000."
The auctioneer pointed to a simple piece of ancient jade that had just been placed under the camera, with almost no pattern except for the water chestnut pattern.
This piece of ancient jade,The place is really not that good, the appearance is not good, and there is a little bit of swarthy color.
Du Le estimates that even if this ancient jade is real jade, it is just an ordinary piece of jade.
Suddenly, the help elf in Du Le's mind said: "Discover the auxiliary equipment of the positioning transmitter - the coordinate manager."
Du Le hurriedly turned his attention to the auction exhibition stand at the venue, and the helping elf was pointing to the piece of ancient jade.
"What is a coordinate manager?" Du Le asked silently in his mind
¡°A tool for managing transmission coordinates, its main purpose is to set random coordinates for transmission and clear the coordinate records in the positioning transmitter,¡± the help elf said.
Hearing the explanation of the Help Elf, Du Le was excited
The positioning transmitter can only record ten coordinates. Du Le has long felt restricted, so until now, Du Le has not dared to use the last two spaces to set coordinates casually.
If you can have this coordinate manager, then Du Le can be more relaxed when setting coordinates, so as not to feel tied up. Moreover, there are so many energy stones in the space, and Du Le does not need to set the coordinates at all. of energy
"Fifty thousand, the second time! Is there a higher bid? Jade nourishes people, and people nourish jade. Wearing a piece of real ancient jade for a long time is also of great benefit to the human body." The auctioneer shouted with a smile, trying to choose for the last time. Arouse everyone's **
"Sixty thousand," Du Le said, holding up his sign
"Okay, this friend bids 60,000, who else wants to bid?" the auctioneer said with a smile.
Qi Xiang hadn¡¯t heard Du Le¡¯s voice for a while, and now he was so excited that he looked at Gu Yu and stared at Du Le with a thoughtful look.
"Sixty-five thousand" someone raised a sign and bid
Du Le didn¡¯t take it seriously. He was determined to get this piece of ancient jade.
"One hundred thousand!" Du Le raised his sign and bid
Seeing Du Le raising the price to 100,000 yuan so straightforwardly, many people immediately stopped talking. After all, the market price of this piece of ancient jade is only 60,000 to 70,000 yuan at most. If the asking price is too much, it is better to buy a better new jade to play with. Or is this piece of ancient jade too bad in appearance and texture? Too bad things cannot be considered as missing items. For example, two bricks from the Han Dynasty, one was specially fired by the palace and used as a palace wall, and the other was just casually burned by ordinary people. Both of the materials used to build a house are antiques, but their value is different. Antiques do not become more valuable with more time. What is valuable is the intangible value contained in antiques.
"Twenty thousand!" Just when the auctioneer was about to announce the result, the troublemaker came again. Qi Xiang raised the sign and said
Qi Xiang observed it and confirmed that Du Le really wanted this piece of ancient jade. He immediately held up a sign and said that he would be happy to cause Du Le some trouble as long as he could make Du Le unhappy.
"Two hundred thousand" Du Le directly raised the price higher
"Two hundred and two thousand," Qi Xiang said with a smile, holding up the sign
Qi Xiang really achieved his goal, Du Le felt very unhappy
The fighting behavior of the two is not a fool present, even Li Ze turned around Du Le and Qi Xiang.
Li Ze frowned and asked Li Shoufu next to him. He pointed in the direction of Qi Xiang and asked, "Who is that young man?"
"Qi Xiang of the Qi Group" Li Shoufu also looked very annoyed.
Du Le is his brother. Yesterday he gave him a copy of "Tranquility", which was a big favor to him.
What do you do, Qi Xiang? As long as Du Le raises his sign, you will come out to cause trouble. Obviously, you don¡¯t give him Li Shoufu face.
Qi Xiang doesn¡¯t know about Du Le¡¯s relationship with the Li family, otherwise he would definitely consider that his behavior would not be so arrogant on the surface at least, blatantly targeting Du Le in public
"If Mr. Du can't take a picture of this piece of ancient jade, you can give the piece of ancient jade carved with dragons from the Han Dynasty to Mr. Du later," Li Ze said in Li Shoufu's ear.
Li Shoufu nodded. The ancient jade from the Han Dynasty that Li Ze mentioned was a real ancient jade worth millions.
"Five million" Du Le spoke again, more than doubling the price.
Qi Xiang smiled, called Du Le contemptuously, raised his sign and said: "Fifty-two thousand"
Du Le frowned, pondered for a moment, raised his sign and said: "Two million"
The highest price in the auction appeared, and the audience was shocked
You must know that this is just a charity auction. The people present will not actually bring any rare treasures to the auction. Du Le's two million is obviously dozens of times more than the price of ancient jade.
Qi Xiang looked at Du Le in surprise. He was a little doubtful whether he had heard it wrong.
Until he saw Du Le turning his head and smiling at him
Thinking of the first auction item, as a rich second generation, Qi Xiang is very rich.? He is not absolutely rich because all his money actually belongs to his father. Otherwise, after his car was smashed, he would have to change to a worse car to drive.
At this time, Jiang Yun also asked Qi Xiang
"Two million and one million" Qi Xiang gritted his teeth when he saw this. He really didn't want to lose face.
"Stop filming," Jiang Yun advised again.
Du Le did not listen to her this time, and shook his head. Du Le had just returned from abroad. If he was not short of money, he would not give up this piece of money, which was of great use to him. He must get the items unless he had no money in his hand, even if it was a piece of money. Ten million, he also wants to get it
"Five million" Du Le raised his placard again, then calmly greeted Qi Xiang with a smile on his face
Qi Xiang was also shocked. This time, he really didn¡¯t dare to raise his hand. Du Le¡¯s smile at this time was so unpredictable in Qi Xiang¡¯s eyes.
If Qi Xiang raises his sign again, he may be Du Le¡¯s trap
After Du Le made his bid, everyone in the audience focused on Qi Xiang
This gives Qi Xiang the feeling that everyone seems to be waiting for his joke
"Wait a minute, I doubt he can offer that much money!" Qi Xiang shouted, "How could someone shout directly from more than two million to five million? I think he deliberately took the shot without buying it."
The auctioneer also felt a little strange and asked Du Le
Du Le smiled and said: "Boy, if you want ancient jade, you are welcome to increase the price. If you don't have money, just say you have no money. Get out as soon as possible and don't waste time here." Then Du Le said to the auctioneer in front of the stage: "Auctioneer, have I broken the rules? Please continue."
Li Ze frowned, Li Shou Fuma stared at the auctioneer and said: "Continue"
The auctioneer knew that few people who could get the invitation letter from Oriental Group were worth hundreds or tens of millions. After receiving Li Shoufu's signal, the auctioneer continued to ask if there were any bids according to the rules.
"Five million, for the third time, congratulations to this gentleman for getting this piece of ancient jade, thank you for supporting charity," the auctioneer said with a smile
"The next lot is a piece of ordinary music. According to the proposal, this d music will be played live for one minute," the auctioneer said
The two waiters immediately took out the CD from the D box and put it into the player
""Tranquility," please enjoy it." The auctioneer was also a little confused.
Li Shoufu laughed secretly below, this was all his idea
Li Ze glanced at his son and knew what he was planning.
There must be many people here who know "Serenity", but they may not have heard of "Serenity" because they are busy business elites and may not have time to appreciate music.
Sure enough, when the auctioneer said he wanted to listen to music, several people present showed dissatisfaction. If this auction wasn't organized by Li Ze, and if Li Ze hadn't been there, they would have scolded each other.
Quietness rings out
Hearing this piece of music again, Du Le¡¯s feelings are still so profound and beautiful. It makes people so fascinated, makes people feel infinitely relaxed, and there is no trace of psychological pressure.
As expected, everyone in the auction showed intoxicated faces (To be continued (To be continued)
