() Seeing the expressions and eyes of Miko Kusawa and Xue Xian, Lin Hei knew that he was being despised for saying ignorant things, so he smiled a little embarrassedly.
Seeing this, Bloodthirsty knew that Lin Mo really didn't know how to do it, so he smiled and said softly: "You are right to say that she is greedy for fun, but more importantly, she is greedy for fame. Look at her just now in everyone's applause. She was smiling so proudly and so satisfied, if she had just donated 900,000 yuan, she would not have such enjoyment!"
Listening to what Xue Xi said, Lin Mo thought about it and suddenly understood the twists and turns!
For these rich people, this charity auction is just a game. While showing off their wealth, they can throw some money out and gain a good reputation. For example, this person spent money to buy back his donated items. The fat woman... Others still praise her for her generosity, boldness, etc.
Holy shit!
After understanding this, Lin Mo couldn't help but secretly curse, is this considered generosity? People like these, whose net worth is tens of millions or hundreds of millions, can earn enough money in a month or a year to support many people in poor areas. Live a lifetime.
And they only donated hundreds of thousands, just like donating a hair from a cow. It is not much money at all, but these people do donate this small amount of money, but they still make it look like they are generous. .
mean!
This is real stinginess!
Donating hundreds of thousands with a net worth of several hundred million is much stingier than donating a few hundred with a net worth of only a few thousand!
In fact, of course, no matter how big or small the donation is! But it is their fault to use it to name pictures! I despise them! Brother, I despise them from the bottom of my heart. This is a despicable act!
Lin Mo suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart...but then he felt it was funny. This anger was a bit inexplicable. What others love is none of his business!
And at this moment, I suddenly remembered something. It seems that the most taboo thing about that gentleman after he became the emperor was for people to mention that he was a beggar. If so, he would hide this bowl in the palace? Haha, could this bowl be? Deception among rich people?
boring!
Lin Mo shook his head helplessly, I really don't understand the world of rich people!
Of course, Lin Mo despised him, but he also knew in his heart that more such things would be a good thing for those in need.
"This can be considered the best of both worlds! The rich gain fame and the poor benefit..."
Lin Mo sighed softly in his heart. He just hoped that the money sold tonight would not be donated to the charity with the cross. Otherwise, the money would be regarded as a water stamp, and most of it would go to that beautiful girl. In the pockets of Miss Meimei, very few of them actually fall into the hands of people in need of help.
At this time, Lin Mo didn't realize that he was actually a rich man.
After paying for the things he bought himself, he still had a lot of money left in his card from selling the bracelet that night! He is actually a multi-millionaire now.
Several more items were auctioned next, all of which were sold for high prices. The hall erupted into hypocritical applause from time to time.
Lin Mo and the other three watched quietly, pretending to be just watching the excitement.
After about an hour passed, Wang De coughed first, and everyone in the venue fell silent.
Everyone knows that a big show is coming!
"Everyone, let's start the auction of "Journey to the South" by Tang Bohu. The base price is two million!"
While Wang De was speaking, the beauty in the cheongsam had already unfolded the picture.
Lin Mo and others immediately saw the characters, cars, and donkeys painted on the TV screen, with pens that were as fine as gossamer on paper.
There are three or four mixed trees on the slope in the close shot. In the middle shot, in front of the rock on the left, a Taoist is riding a donkey slowly, followed closely behind by a boy servant pulling a cart and carrying a piano. Just after leaving the rock mouth, two cart pushers are on the right
, hurrying on the road. The mountain road is winding and the stream is undulating, which shows how hard the journey is.
The whole painting is colorless, the mountains are gentle, and one of the trees has leaves dotted with pepper, making it look even more magical.
Seeing this painting, Lin Mo thought it was a good painting even though he didn't know how to paint.
"Two million and one million!"
"Two and a half million!"
"Three million!"
"Three million once...three million and one million!"
The bidding sounds are quite pleasant, because women are bidding there.
"By the way, doesn't this painting need an authoritative appraisal?" While watching quietly, Lin Mo saw that Xue Xian had not made a bid. Knowing Xue Xian, he probably knew the approximate value of the painting, so he was not in a hurry. He suddenly thought of this out of boredom and endured it.
He couldn't help but express his doubts, "Aren't you afraid of buying fakes?"
"Even if there is an appraisal, it may not be genuine." Xue Xian smiled faintly, "I can only say that everyone believes in Wang De. Besides, when buying things here, authenticity is not important. What is important is that the money is spent and someone knows so-and-so.
It only matters how much money a person takes for charity.”
"That's it." Lin Mo nodded.
The price soon soared to eight million.
"It's unbelievable that a dead man's painting can be sold for so much money." Lin Mo couldn't help but muttered when he heard someone selling for more than 10 million. He really didn't understand this business.
"Things are not valuable until a person dies." Miko Kusawa finally couldn't help but speak, "If a person is alive, it means that he will have other works. Even if his previous works were damaged or lost, he can paint them again.
, but after his death, his works during his lifetime have become his legacy, and there will be no more in the future. Every work is unique."
"That's right." Lin Mo nodded, and then decided not to talk too much, because he would make people laugh if he didn't know how to speak.
When someone called out the price of eight million, the hall fell silent. Obviously, this price had exceeded the bottom line of many people.
"Eight million for the first time, is there anyone who bids? Eight million for the second time..." Wang De scanned the area for a week and estimated that the price was indeed about the same, so he smiled and decided to make a decision.
At this moment, a voice said steadily: "Ten million."
The speaker was an old man in his seventies sitting across the table from Lin Mo. He leaned on his chair, holding a red wine glass in his hand. After placing his bid, he took a sip of the red wine.
His voice was not loud, but in this quiet environment, most people in the banquet hall heard it. But his dress and appearance were quite ordinary, and he had never made a bid before, so everyone began to pay attention to him.
Not that I care.
Wang De was obviously stunned for a moment, and Lin Mo couldn't help but take another look at the old man. He only saw a smile on the old man's face. It was a calm smile, and there was more confidence in the smile.
, I guess no one will compete with his price.
After all, going from eight million to ten million is a big leap!
Even if there are people directly bidding for more than two million in the front, the price in the front is low, and the price in the back is getting closer and closer to the bottom line, so normally it will be a small increase. The old man suddenly increased the price by two million at this time, which is obviously a trend.
must.
Although many of the people here are rich people, they are here for the title of the picture, but few people can accept to spend 10 million for the title of the picture, although 10 million is not an astronomical figure for them. , but not everyone is willing to spend so much money on a painting that is only for collection!
In the end, the old man got the painting for ten million.
When the old man stepped forward to hand over, Lin Mo noticed that while he was glancing proudly at everyone around him, there was a bit of cynicism in his eyes, as if he was mocking everyone for their ignorance.
Lin Mo's heart moved for no reason, and his consciousness suddenly enveloped the painting in the old man's hand. When he saw it, his heart was suddenly shocked, because there was another mystery in this painting. There was a page sandwiched in the painting paper, and there was a record on the paper. It turned out to be a three-style sword technique.
"Weird, is Tang Bohu a master of swordsmanship?" Lin Mo muttered in his heart, but what made him even more strange was the old man. When he used his spiritual consciousness to check everyone in the hall before, one of the people he thought were ordinary people. There is this old man, but now the other person seems to have bought this painting for these three sword skills, so he may not be an ordinary person.
"Is this another master who can't even see the depth of it?" Lin Mo frowned slightly and moved his consciousness away from the painting, instantly covering the old man and wanting to check his situation carefully.
boom!
Suddenly, Lin Mo felt a shock in his consciousness, and his consciousness was cut off. Then he saw a vague glare in the old man's eyes flashed away, but there was no abnormal reaction in the next step, and he sat back as if nothing had happened. on the position.
"You can actually cut off my consciousness? This person must be a master of spiritual consciousness. Could it be that he broke Jin Sanpang's hypnosis?"
Lin Mo secretly remembered the old man.
At this time, Wang De's voice sounded again, so Lin Mo turned his attention away from the old man, but instead of looking at Wang De, he looked at Xue Xian's hand that seemed to be casually placed on the table in surprise. He saw Bloodthirsty's fingers tapping a few times and his eyes staring at him, obviously as if he had something to say to him.
"The auction below is also a painting by Tang Bohu. The ten beautiful pictures. Everyone should know that these ten beautiful pictures are of Tang Bohu's ten wives, and everyone is even more familiar with the story of Tang Bohu lighting autumn fragrance. I don't think I need to tell you the value of Tang Bohu's words. Now everyone understands it, so I won’t say more about this painting..."
Wang De was obviously very satisfied with the price of more than 16 million for "Journey to the South", so he sounded a little excited when he auctioned the second one.
While Wang De was talking, his bloodthirsty hand began to write on the table, and wrote a few words: "Painting, no matter the cost, must buy, mission!"
Lin Mo was startled for a moment, and then he realized that he came for Wang De tonight, and Bloodthirsty came with a mission.
Although I don’t know why they bought this ten-beautiful picture, since it’s a mission, Lin Mo has to help!
"Similarly, the ten beautiful pictures also have a base price of two million, and the bidding will start now." Wang De finally said the base price.
As soon as Wang De said the lowest price, Xue Xian couldn't wait to open his mouth to quote, but before his voice came out of his mouth, Lin Mo spoke first: "Two million and one million!"
Lin Mo's quotation made Xue Xixi stunned for a moment, Kuzawa Miko was also stunned, and in fact everyone in the hall was also stunned.
Add ten thousand, just add ten thousand?
Although the auction does not limit the amount of a bid increase, for something with such a high price, it is too shabby to have an increase of 10,000 for the first bid!
