When Xiang Dong and the others sat down to bid for the pearl and jade No. 10 in the auction, Xiang Dong suddenly realized that this piece of jade had a feeling of calling him. And the piece of pearl and jade being auctioned was actually the jade pendant hanging on his chest.
They were exactly the same, and there seemed to be a mysterious echo between them, which shocked him greatly.
The jade pendant he carries with him is also a strange-looking yin-yang jade, which he has had for as long as he can remember. Because it feels very comfortable hanging on his body, he has never taken it off. Now he can actually see a piece of jade that is exactly the same as it, and it looks like something between the two.
There is still a vague echo, so Xiang Dong must treat it carefully.
The base price for the No. 10 Yin-Yang Jade is 50,000 yuan. According to the host and the information on the large LCD screen, this jade is a piece of jade whose year cannot be identified. All treasure appraisal experts are unable to determine its true value. And the former owner of this jade
Because of this, it was resold, and finally, after several rounds of sales, it was purchased by Huang's Arts and Crafts Auction Company.
Since the person who evaluated the purchase of this jade was a newcomer to the company, Huang's Auction Company still spent 20,000 yuan. The reason why it was put up for auction this time was to try its luck and see if there were any experts who knew the jade, or if it was
Buyers who particularly like this jade will resell it. After all, the purpose of starting a company is not to make a profit.
Chinese people have always been obsessed with jade because they believe that jade is a spiritual thing and hope to find natural aura in jade. Unfortunately, the No. 10 jade is a yin-yang jade. The black and white jade with yin and yang intertwined is considered unlucky.
, so although the host on the stage was giving a speech hard, no one in the audience was interested.
Xiang Dong has never had such a strong desire to possess the No. 10 Pearl and Jade. Greed is against the natural cultivation rules of Hongmeng Life and Death Art. If it is not done well, inner demons will arise, which is extremely detrimental to cultivation.
However, facing the pearl and jade that gave him a mysterious feeling and echoed the yin-yang jade that he carried with him, he would not let it go no matter what. He had a strong feeling that this piece of yin-yang jade would bring him a strange surprise.
Since he wanted to get this piece of pearl and jade, Xiang Dong had to consider bidding for funds. This was the first time since he started practicing that he had an urgent need for money.
Of course, if he wanted to forcefully obtain this piece of pearl and jade based on his ability, I'm afraid no one would be able to stop him. However, such an approach would not only go against his nature, but would also be very detrimental to the cultivation of Taoism. Since he lives in the secular world, then
He must abide by secular rules. Besides, if he didn't have this calm mind, he wouldn't have been able to reach the Qi refining stage in a short period of time.
With the mentality that he was bound to win the pearls and jade at the auction, Xiang Dong had to ask Director Liu around him. This was also the best result envisioned by Director Yang at the beginning. As long as there was a collection that Xiang Dong was interested in at the auction site, he would
Is there a way to buy it to thank Xiang Dong?
Director Liu was secretly happy after hearing Xiang Dong's question. The task Director Yang gave him was to fulfill Xiang Dong's wish. If Xiang Dong didn't like any of it, wouldn't it mean that his task had not been completed?
Through Director Liu's explanation, Xiang Dong understood the general situation. The invitation letter given to Xiang Dong by Director Yang was not only an admission ticket, but also a symbol of status.
In the internal system of Tianwaitian, the legal holder of the invitation letter No. 6 is actually Director Yang, and this is also the reason why the guard and security are not sure that Xiang Dong holds the invitation letter. Because once Xiang Dong holds the invitation
If the letter is consumed in Tianwaitian, then Director Yang will ultimately pay the bill, and the security guards have to treat this with caution.
Director Liu assured Xiang Dong that he could buy whatever auction item he liked, and Director Yang would solve all his worries for him. The implication was that as long as Xiang Dong was satisfied, he didn't have to worry about money issues.
Only then did Xiang Dong understand the reason why Director Yang asked Director Liu to entertain him. It turned out to be to thank him for his rescue, but it was just a more covert method.
Normally, not only would Xiang Dong not accept Director Yang's kindness, he would even walk away. But this time, he can truly understand Director Yang's mood. Just like he shows kindness without repaying it, he has the right to do so.
Kindness must be repaid rather than vulgarity being impatient.
Now that he understood, Xiang Dong stopped being pretentious and asked Xiaotong to raise a sign to bid for the price. However, he secretly decided in his heart that after the pearls and jade were photographed, he would find a way to return the money for the jade to Director Yang. With Hongmeng
With so much energy around him, he doesn't think money is hard to earn.
Xiaotong accepted the tasks assigned by Xiang Dong with both hands. She was originally a very lively, enthusiastic and unrestrained personality. When she came to such an occasion, she could only watch but not participate, which made her feel itchy. Now that she has the opportunity to participate, she has something to say in her heart.
She couldn't help but be excited. After receiving Xiang Dong's instructions, she immediately clicked the bidding button with great interest and directly increased the price to 60,000.
After the host announced the lowest price of the Yin Yang Jade, he began to spit out sensational explanations, hoping that someone would respond. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried to exaggerate, no one responded. He suddenly felt sad and realized that Lot 10 might not be sold.
Unexpectedly, just when he was about to announce that the auction had been rejected, Seat 6 was directly priced at 60,000 yuan.
Originally, bidders could increase the bid by a minimum of 5,000 yuan for a lot that no one responded to, but since someone wanted to take advantage of this person and offer an extra 5,000 yuan, the host was of course eager to get it. When he saw the increase in price on the 6th, he immediately bought it.
After the decline just now, the tone suddenly became high-pitched, and he cheered up and started to make sensational bids again.
Don't tell me, the host here has just finished bidding, and someone over there responded in a very considerate way. The person bidding again was table 11, with a bid of 70,000.
This time, the host's mood was even higher, far worse than the underglaze red porcelain that was priced at millions just now. People are like this. Only when there is a strong psychological gap, the excitement will be more intense.
Although Seat 11 is not a super VIP area like Seat 6, it is also a person with a certain social status. When the host looked up, he actually recognized the owner of this building. He was a very wealthy man, dressed in a Tang suit and with a short haircut.
A middle-aged man, who is the Fourth Master of Nanquan and North Legs in Zhehai City if not the famous Nanquan Master.
Like the host, other people basically know the Fourth Master, but few people know that in name, Brother Wu and the Fourth Master are fighting against each other, but secretly Brother Wu is the Fourth Master and one Ma Tsai.
The fourth master is both good and evil. He is usually very low-key and never gets involved in crazy things. Moreover, when he unified the dark world of Zhehai City, he very cleverly introduced a character - Brother Wu, allowing him to interact with others on the surface.
He fought against the family because he understood that a dominant family meant that he was about to be killed by a river crab.
Just now he received a call from Brother Wu, saying that Brother Wu had a dispute with a young man. Unexpectedly, Director Liu of Qingpu District was brought in. In the end, Director Liu prepared to attack Dynasty Entertainment City with all his strength to support the young man.
On the surface, what Brother Wu said was right, but he missed one person - Director Yang, and he didn't explain the scene clearly. In addition to hoping that Fourth Master would help him out, he also caused trouble.
The heart of Dongyin.
Before being pushed out by the Fourth Master, Brother Wu was indeed the Fourth Master's son. However, after several years of hard work, he was no longer satisfied with being a Ma Tsai, and wanted to truly compete with the Fourth Master, or even replace him. But
He also knew that the Fourth Master's true strength was not something he could compete with, and he could only figure it out slowly.
This time he actually bumped into Director Yang and the others' guns, and then he had an idea and secretly promoted the mistakes he made. He insidiously pushed Fourth Master and Director Yang into opposition, so that he could fish in troubled waters.
The fourth master didn't know about these circumstances, but he saw Director Liu's attitude towards Xiang Dong. Based on this, he believed that Xiang Dong might be a playboy from a certain official family, and Director Liu was just trying to curry favor with Xiang Dong.
Although Fourth Master has also noticed that Brother Wu has different intentions, he really doesn’t want to destroy the situation he has created by cultivating a puppet. After all, it is not easy to cultivate a new puppet. Therefore, when he sees the bidding for 10 in Block 6
After collecting the pearls and jade, he asked his followers to bid the price without hesitation.
Of course, if Fourth Master dares to go against the norm and confront Director Liu, he has strong support.
Xiang Dong is determined to win the pearls and jade from the No. 10 collection, and the real purpose of Fourth Master's bidding is to attract Director Liu's attention, thereby increasing his bargaining chip in the future.
Soon, during the stalemate bidding process between the two parties, the price was raised to 600,000 yuan in an instant. The pearls and jade that no one cared about suddenly became popular because they were about to be sold out, and they increased tenfold to 600,000 yuan, which made the host's voice even louder.
Excited.
Most of the people at the scene recognized the two bidding parties. Seeing the Fourth Master and Director Liu fighting for a piece of jade, the atmosphere in the scene suddenly entered a strange climax. A collection of 600,000 yuan could actually make the atmosphere enter the scene*
*, This cannot but be said to be related to the excitement brought by the identity of the bidding parties.
When the bidding reached 600,000 yuan by Fourth Master, Xiang Dong asked Xiaotong to stop. Although he had no idea about money, he also understood the value of 600,000 yuan, which could not be obtained with the abilities of Director Liu and Director Yang.
After all, everyone is a salaried cadre. If he spends too much money, problems can easily arise. He doesn't want to harm anyone.
But it is impossible for Xiang Dong to give up this piece of jade. Since this piece of jade can make him feel sensitive, it proves that it may be helpful to his cultivation. In any case, he does not want to miss this opportunity.
When he thought about it, even if the pearl and jade could not be auctioned on the spot, he could still leave a trace of the pearl and jade and try to get it later. Therefore, he chose to give up temporarily and let Xiaotong not increase the price.
The fourth master suddenly intervened, which made Director Liu frown. Since ancient times, good and evil have not been compatible. Director Liu did not have a good impression of the fourth master, but he always kept a low profile and could not grasp the excuse.
If other people were bidding at this time, Director Liu would not mind bowing his head to say hello to the other party, implying that he was bound to get this piece of jade, but facing the fourth master, he would never lower his head. This was a matter of principle.
Therefore, after Xiang Dong asked Xiaotong to stop increasing the price, Director Liu had to accept this cruel reality sadly. Just as Xiang Dong thought, he and Director Yang really couldn't afford 600,000.
Everyone at the scene saw that Director Liu and Xiang Dong in Seat 6 seemed to have given up on bidding, and they couldn't help but sneer with disdain. The sense of mystery they had towards Xiang Dong was completely overturned, and they secretly thought that the young man whom Director Liu treated so condescendingly was actually a man.
What a stupid chicken.
