Wu Yong looked as if his treacherous plan had succeeded, and his smile was extremely proud.
"Ouch, what should we do now? How about Mr. Xiao, just ask for 1.5 million and one yuan. After all, you probably won't be able to get even one penny more, hahaha...
…”
These harsh and provocative words instantly made Chi Hong's eyebrows stand up. He turned around suddenly, bit his cheek and shouted: "Wu, you fucking..."
However, before the words could be cursed, Xiao Yun next to him patted the back of his hand heavily, winked at him, and then shook his head slightly to signal him not to make a big deal out of things like this.
Xiao Yun naturally knew that Wu Yong was deliberately disgusting him, and he was too lazy to ruin his whole night's enjoyment because of such a person, so he decisively gave up the Qing Dynasty Yongzheng blue and white porcelain bowl.
In the end, the small porcelain bowl was snapped up by the guest in Shanghai for 1.5 million.
After several more rounds of auctions.
"Everyone, the next collection is a necklace donated by Bafu Jewelry in Tianhai City!"
"This necklace is very precious. It belongs to Queen Marie Antoinette, the wife of King Louis XVI of France!"
"One year before Mary was guillotined, she asked the British ambassador's wife, Countess Sutherland, to smuggle away a batch of gray pearls and diamonds."
"Later, the Countess of Sutherland made these diamonds into an exquisite necklace, and then added gray pearls to her grandson's wedding..."
Following the auctioneer's introduction, everyone in the hall became agitated, and the female guests all showed stunning looks. Even Lin Xueer, who had always been in a dull mood, couldn't help but sit up straight and look at her.
Look on the screen.
In fact, these celebrities here tonight will spend millions and millions without blinking an eye. Diamonds and pearls are not uncommon things to them.
But this necklace is different. It was something worn by the Queen of France herself!
You know, Marie Antoinette was a woman who had a very important role in history, and a director even made a movie specifically for her.
Her extravagant and lascivious living habits, romantic love experiences and legendary life not only make women admire and admire her, but also shock men!
Even her name has gradually become synonymous with the word "luxury".
In fact, even without looking at the historical background of this pearl and diamond necklace, just looking at its design is very attractive.
There are hundreds of small diamonds, not a single diamond is broken, each one is in very good condition, and there is also a circle of pure naturally formed complete pink diamonds in the middle for decoration.
The plump and round gray pearls are like stars holding the moon, connected together by small diamonds. At first glance, the whole necklace exudes a sense of luxury and unparalleled beauty.
"Jiang Libing, the chairman of Bafu Jewelry, gave this necklace a beautiful name, called 'Love and Tears', which represents the sweetness and bitterness of love."
"The starting price is 10 million! Now, everyone is welcome to bid!"
At this time, everyone was immersed in the beauty of this necklace and marveled at its legendary experience. But as soon as they heard the starting price of 10 million, some people in the seats at the back of the hall stared and hesitated.
Already.
In tonight's auction hall, the seats are arranged according to the status of the guests. To put it simply, the higher the status of the person, the seat is closer to the front. This is why Zhou Lixin saw Xiao Yun sitting in the front row of him.
, the reason for being so angry.
Although 10 million is not a big sum for these rich people, this is just the starting price. Without a few rounds, the price is estimated to be over 50 million!
Fifty million to buy a necklace is enough to persuade 80% of the guests in the back row to leave. Even if the remaining 20% of the guests can afford to raise signs, in fact, they
I won't participate in the bidding either.
For nothing else, just because of a very simple truth - the seating order of everyone present represents that person's status, as well as his influence and intimidation in this circle!
Are all the guests sitting in the back row people who can’t afford tens of millions to bid? Of course not!
However, they are at best newcomers to this circle. They have financial resources but have not yet established their social status.
Under such circumstances, they naturally did not dare to bid at will without seeing in a hall where celebrities gathered.
Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will seize the opportunity from the tiger's mouth and blatantly challenge the majesty of those big bosses.
The Marie Antoinette necklace on the stage is obviously a collection that only belongs to those big shots at the top of the pyramid. Even if they have the strength to bid, they are not qualified to raise a placard.
"Fifteen million."
The first person to raise the sign was a middle-aged woman sitting in the front. When she bid, she looked enthusiastic, obviously she was very interested in the Marie Antoinette necklace on the stage.
"Twenty million." Xiao Yun also raised his number plate and followed the bidding.
He turned his head slightly and whispered in Lin Xueer's ear: "How about taking a photo and giving it to you?"
Suddenly, a low and magnetic voice came to her ears. Lin Xueer felt a tickling sensation in her earlobes. She subconsciously shrank her neck, and her face turned red instantly.
"I...I don't want it. This Queen Marie is the famous beheaded queen of France. She is extravagant and licentious, and almost bankrupted a country. I...I'm not interested in her things..."
Although he said this, Xiao Yun could see that Lin Xueer's eyes were sparkling, and she obviously liked the beauty and exquisiteness of that necklace very much.
"Twenty-five million!" Not to be outdone, the middle-aged woman raised her sign again, stretched her chubby neck, and glared at Xiao Yun's back.
"Thirty million!" Xiao Yun lazily continued to raise the sign. Since Lin Xueer also liked this necklace, he must take it down.
Although the asking price of 30 million is a large sum for Xiao Yun at present, he doesn't really care about it because with his current ability, it is not difficult to make money.
Moreover, this Queen Mary necklace is an orphan. It is the only one in the world. It can be found but not sought. If he misses it tonight, even if he bids 300 million in the future, he will probably not be able to find where to buy it.
After hearing Xiao Yun's bid, the middle-aged woman's face froze, as if she had eaten a fly, and the hand holding the number plate began to tremble.
Although she really likes this necklace, if the price is higher, it is not something she can afford.
The middle-aged woman glared at Xiao Yun's back bitterly, and at the same time cast an envious and jealous look at Lin Xueer beside him.
Alas! Why can't her husband be so bold as to grab a favorite collection for her?
However, at this moment.
A guest in the first row of the hall raised his number plate and shouted loudly: "Sixty million!"
"Wow!"
Instantly, the entire hall became commotion.
Sixty million?!
The other party actually doubled the asking price?!
