Chapter 209 [Malicious bidding]
An auction house entrance ticket requires five hundred gold coins, which is like grabbing.
However, the high-level auction house deliberately adjusted the price so high. If you are willing to spend 500 gold coins to buy an entrance roll, it can be seen that the guest has a strong financial resources. It is not that he wants to sneak in and open his eyes, so he is naturally qualified to enter.
If it were when I just left the academy, Luo Feng would definitely feel very distressed about the money.
But now he is a little rich man.
In the Rabbit Demon Village, Luo Feng accepted all the gold that the Golden Clan lord dug out of the gold mine, because that utopian race really doesn't work, so Luo Feng doesn't have to worry about money for the time being.
I bought an entrance ticket with 500 gold coins and returned to the entrance. This time the gatekeeper did not make things difficult for him anymore. After checking the ticket, he let it go. He was a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, this young man tribe doesn't look very good, but he is very rich and should not behave like a person.
After entering the auction hall and finding the location, Luo Feng sat down and looked around curiously.
The high-end auction house is indeed very high-end, and is decorated like a private luxury club. No wonder the threshold is so high that most people cannot come in.
At this time, somewhere behind, a pair of eyes stared at Luo Feng, with resentment in his eyes, which turned out to be Hui Yan.
The one-month confinement period has passed, and Hui Yan can leave the Hui Mu family, but his hatred for Luo Feng will naturally not disappear with this month.
Humph, it’s all this guy, which has greatly affected my status in the family.
But what exactly he wanted to do when he came here.
Oh, by the way, is it that he also wants to prepare Qingming’s birthday gift from the auction house?
The auction began soon, and a host walked onto the stage: "Dear gentlemen and beautiful ladies, good evening, welcome to the Qizhen Pavilion Auction. I am very happy to tell you that our auction items are quite rich this time, and there are many rare and very useful things..."
The host first gave a simple opening remark, and then formally auctioned the items.
There are indeed a wide variety of strange treasures, which makes Luo Feng dazzled. The lowest one is more than 100,000 gold coins, and the highest one is millions of gold coins.
Luo Feng watched with interest until a piece of green jade was put on the stage by two etiquette ladies in brocade boxes.
The host carefully held up the jade. Under the light, it was extremely pure, with a uniform jade color without any impurities: "I think more than 99% of the VIP guests here would definitely think that this is a piece of jade, but, unfortunately, you guessed it wrong. This is a kind of wood called wood jade. It is located in some special environment. After a long time, this wood will gradually become jade-like and is quite strange. However, in fact, it is still a wood-attribute treasure, which can attract wood energy. It is particularly useful for the guests of the Wood Clan. In addition, wood jade is also quite beautiful. Look, it is so pure and flawless. People usually give each other wooden jade, which means that the pure friendship between them will never deteriorate."
Luo Feng's eyes lit up because this was exactly what he needed.
It is very special, useful, and beautiful. What’s more important is to give Qingming a piece of wood jade to express his thoughts.
Although she and she cannot be a couple, Luo Feng hopes that the two can maintain a pure friendship.
It depends on how the price is.
The host continued: "This is a top-quality piece of wooden jade, so our starting price is 500,000 gold coins, and each time it is increased by at least 20,000 gold coins."
Luo Feng breathed a little relieved. Well, the starting price is a little high, but it is not too outrageous and acceptable.
As soon as the host finished speaking, someone raised the sign.
"Oh, that gentleman first offered for half a million gold coins."
Then, someone immediately raised the card.
"Fifty-two thousand gold coins."
"Fifty-four thousand gold coins."
"Fifty-six thousand gold coins."
“…”
The guests' price increase is basically the lowest 20,000 gold coins, and it is not very enthusiastic. It can be seen that the attractiveness of this piece of wood jade is not very strong.
Every large auction, there are too many beautiful and useful things. There is no need to break the head for a piece of wooden jade. Its actual effect is not that good. However, the hosts of the auction like to exaggerate and try their best to modify each auction item with gorgeous words. Even if it is garbage, they can still whisper like a peerless treasure in their mouths. The old fried dough sticks who understand the style of the auction house have long been unmoved.
But Luo Feng is just a rookie and has special needs, so the value of this piece of wood jade is different in his heart.
Luo Feng raised the sign, and the host exclaimed: "Seven hundred thousand gold coins, this gentleman from the human race gave out 700 thousand gold coins. You are really a person who knows the goods. Friendship is priceless, and it is absolutely worth it."
After seeing many auction items, Luo Feng also had some experience.
If you really want to get an auction item, you must be ruthless at a time to let others know that you are determined to win. If you continue to bid, even if you can get this item, you will pay a lot of money, so they will give up.
Sure enough, after Luo Feng offered a high price of 700,000, no one raised his bid.
Compared with such a high price, Mu Yu is not worth it. As long as a wise person, he will not compete with Luo Feng.
Except, some unusual person.
After paying attention to Luo Feng, Hui Yan was very surprised when he learned that he was the one who offered 700,000 yuan.
This kid looks poor and has so much money and spends 700,000 yuan in the auction.
He didn't buy so many things, but he just bought Mu Yu. It seemed that he would definitely give Qing Ming a gift.
Haha, I can't make it so easy for him to get it. I want him to pay more.
"Did no one offer it? The first time of 700,000, the second time of 700,000, the second time of 700,000, the second time of 700,000..." The host began to raise the small hammer and prepare to knock it down. The auction was able to sell for 700,000, and the price was considered good.
However, when the small hammer in his hand fell off the table, someone suddenly raised the sign again.
The host didn't expect that someone would continue to increase the price, and immediately said excitedly: "Seventy-two thousand, the second friend who knew the goods appeared, and he quoted a higher price of 720,000."
The one who holds the sign is Hui Yan.
Luo Feng frowned. He didn't expect that he could not handle this piece of wood jade after driving it to 700,000 yuan.
So he raised the small card in his hand again.
"Eight hundred thousand, my god, I mentioned this customer who was 700,000 directly, and this time I offered another eight hundred thousand."
However, the other bidder also raised the sign, and he didn't add much, it was 820,000.
Damn, who is TMD and I snatch it.
Luo Feng was a little depressed, but he was still unwilling to give up. If he missed this piece of wood jade, there should be no better gift than this that expresses his hope of becoming eternal friends with Qingming, rather than a couple.
Raise the sign again, 900,000.
The host was almost crazy, and his volume increased by at least a few dozen: "Let me see, if it weren't for the dazzling, the guest would have another nine hundred thousand. Well, I have to say that he was too generous. I don't know who he wanted to give this piece of wood jade to, and that he would be so lucky to be able to get such generous friends who would spend ten thousand pounds of friendship. I feel jealous."
But as soon as Luo Feng's sign was raised, the other side immediately followed.
Ninety-two thousand.
"I think this is not an auction, but a battle related to dignity." The host knew how to stir up trouble: "These two guests really surprised me. To be honest, I have worked in the auction hall for decades and rarely have such fierce and tit-for-tat competition. Will there be a higher price? Let's wait and see."
Luo Feng was furious and raised the sign.
Anyway, he just thought that the gold was picked up, so he didn't feel distressed.
"One million." Before the auction began, all the appraisers at the auction house evaluated Muyu, believing that if its highest price exceeds 800,000, it would be a miracle. No one thought that it would be soared to seven figures now.
This time the host simply said: "Please forgive me for being unable to describe my mood at this moment in better words. Can the rich man take my knees?"
Hui Yan did not add it again because his current net worth is only more than 900,000. If he pays it to 1.02 million, and Luo Feng gives up, he will have to pay the money. If he can't afford it, it will be considered a breach of contract and will permanently cancel the qualification of a VIP in the auction. The auction house is very important to reputation.
Besides, even if he had enough money and spent such a big price, he would not be willing to buy a piece of Muyu that was not worth it, so he stopped when he saw it.
"One Million First, One Million Second, One Million Third…"
The auction was finally finalized, and Mu Yu was obtained by Luo Feng.
Huiyan, who failed the bid, was not depressed, but was still very proud.
Letting this kid spend 300,000 more in vain can be regarded as a change of direction and small revenge.
Also, this kid spent millions to buy a birthday gift for Qingming. Unexpectedly, Qingming was just pretending to him and was just a real person on me. This is really ironic, haha.
