Shen Mange rolled his eyes, looked at Li Mu who grabbed his arm and kneaded it back and forth, reached out and slapped his hand away and said:
"Damn it, you are as thick-skinned as a city wall, I can't be bothered to care about you."
Li Mu laughed, changed the subject and said:
"Fifth sister, what gift are you going to buy for eldest sister? Why do you want to make it so grand?"
He took out the roster and handed it to Li Mu, who immediately saw a dark red foldout. This unique invitation was not only an admission ticket, but also clearly introduced each auction item.
There are not only famous paintings by Zheng Banqiao, but also some rare antiques.
Fifth sister Shen Mange explained:
"I'm going to buy a set of necklaces for my eldest sister. They are antiques and are inlaid with eighteen different types of gemstones. I called you here to ask you to bid for me. After all, I am a public figure and I need to keep a low profile."
After hearing Fifth Sister's explanation, how could Li Mu believe it?
She is a big star, and she has five or six assistants around her. She still needs him to come over and help hold the sign?
Looking at the various antiques on the roster, Li Mu couldn't help but click his tongue. Every item in it could be called an heirloom-level treasure.
The necklace that fifth sister Shen Mange chose as a gift was even more magnificent. At first glance, it looked like a precious jewelry that could only be worn by powerful people in ancient times.
Seeing this collection, Li Mu couldn't help but ask:
“Why does it have to be this object?”
He knew that although Shen Mange became a star, his income was considerable.
But she is by no means a person who is extravagant and wasteful. Spending so much money to buy an antique necklace as a birthday gift is really too expensive.
Shen Mange explained:
"When I see you, you don't pay attention to my eldest sister's movements."
"Recently, her clothing brand moumou is going to enter the international market and will go to Paris Fashion Week and Milan."
"Although the Moumou Group has become very popular in the past two years, there are not many hot topics. I bought this antique necklace for my eldest sister. Matching it with the national style costumes designed by their company will definitely make my eldest sister's brand famous all over the world. It sparked heated discussions within the community.”
After hearing Shen Mange's words, Li Mu finally understood Fifth Sister's intentions.
He smiled and said:
"Fifth sister, you better be careful."
"However, this antique necklace must not be cheap, right?"
Shen Mange seemed to be in a good mood because of his genius idea and this carefully selected gift, and said leisurely:
"The price should be high. Anyway, with the historical and cultural background of the jewelry, it will only become more expensive as the price goes up. You can't lose much."
"And we are here to build publicity for Big Sister. Once we take a photo of this treasure, the reports that will follow will be continuous."
"Only by leveraging this popularity and attracting enough eyeballs can Big Sister's brand shine in the fashion week."
How much movement can this antique necklace make if it is photographed?
Li Mu felt that fifth sister Shen Mange's analysis was a bit exaggerated.
But since it was the fifth sister who chose the gift, she obviously put a lot of work into it, and Li Mu was embarrassed to show it.
Anyway, it’s just a necklace, just take a picture of it.
It can be regarded as the fifth sister's affection for the eldest sister.
Seeing Li Mu, he hesitated to speak.
Zhong Lingyuxiu, Bingxue and smart Shen Mange immediately guessed what Li Mu was thinking.
She introduced it rather mysteriously:
"Do you know who the first owner of this antique necklace was?"
Li Mu looked at the exquisitely carved gold ornaments in the picture. Although they had gone through the baptism of time, they did not show any signs of age. Instead, they were as eye-catching as the accessories of a Miao girl.
At first glance, it looks like it was made by a famous artist.
He looked at the style of the necklace and guessed:
"This gold ornament is gorgeous and complicated, and the gem inlay is exquisite. It seems to be a work from the Tang and Song Dynasties."
Shen Mange looked at Li Mu in surprise. She didn't expect that Li Mu would have such a discerning eye after being abroad for ten years. If she hadn't often filmed costume dramas and had some knowledge about wearing ancient jewelry, she really wouldn't have known what this accessory would be. Items from which dynasty.
Seeing that Li Mu guessed correctly, Shen Mange did not show off and praised him:
"Awesome, Xiao Mu, this is indeed a gold ornament from the Northern Song Dynasty that has been authenticated, and its owner is well documented. It was a descendant of Master Li who kept it."
"Li Shishi, the peerless beauty of the Northern Song Dynasty? That ancient beauty who was related to Huizong of the Song Dynasty?"
Although Li Mu guessed that the identity of the owner of this necklace was anything but ordinary, he never imagined that its background would be so important.
Shen Mange nodded and said:
"Experts have identified it. This gold ornament was made by royal craftsmen, and the Wang family has also provided corresponding genealogy and various information to prove it."
"The valuable thing about this gold jewelry is that it has a history. Not only is the pattern of the gold jewelry painted on the family tree, but there is also a detailed introduction to the origin of this necklace."
After listening to Shen Mange's statement, Li Mu couldn't help but take a breath.
If this necklace is real, it will indeed cause a sensation in the media industry.
However, I am afraid that this thing is not authentic and is a fake.
"What is the origin of this auction house? Can such precious items be auctioned?"
"The Crescent Hotel is the most famous auction house in this city. Compared with Christie's in Hong Kong, it pales in comparison."
Li Mu couldn't help but said after hearing this:
"Fifth sister, the value of this thing is not low. What is your budget?"
Shen Mange stretched out five fingers and whispered to Li Mu:
"Fifty million, if it's any higher, I won't be able to afford it."
Li Mu smiled slightly, patted his chest and said:
"If I can't take the photo, the extra part is mine."
Hearing Li Mu's words, Shen Mange looked at her eighth brother suspiciously. Although she knew that Li Mu seemed to have no shortage of money, she never asked how much.
"You? It's better to save your money and save your money to marry a wife in the future. How much money can a little kid like you have?"
"If the eldest sister knew that I kidnapped you to come with me to buy her such expensive things, it would be strange if she didn't beat me up."
Li Mu laughed dumbly and said:
"Fifth sister, do you underestimate me?"
"Didn't the eldest sister and the second sister tell you? I just acquired an overseas investment company, Angel's Kiss, some time ago. In terms of cash, not to mention marrying a wife, marrying the seven of you is enough."
Hearing Li Mu's words, Shen Mange thought he was bragging, blushed and pushed Li Mu and said:
"Gungun, the idea has actually been given to your seven sisters. Who wants to marry you? You shameless scum..."
While they were joking, the car was parked steadily in a spacious surface parking lot.
The assistant and driver turned around and said:
"Miss Shen, we're here. The Crescent Hotel is in front of us."
