Chapter 51 Charity Ball (Part 2)(2/2)
At this time, Governor Göring raised his hand.
The emcee immediately became excited. This was the first time that the SAR Governor took a fancy to the bidding for an auction item.
"Governor Goering bids 1,000, is there any more bid?"
Naturally, no one else would bid against the local emperor of the Special Administrative Region.
Lu Ming didn't pay attention at first, but suddenly he thought that there were photos of Eunice in the photo album.
This is probably what this old pervert is doing.
Although there is nothing much that can be done by looking at the photos, considering that this old guy is so psychopathic, he might do something disgusting with these photos.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Lu Ming suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
At this time, the master of ceremonies was counting down, "Three, two..."
Lu Ming raised his hand: "I'll pay 2,000!"
"Okay! Commissioner Bit bids 2000! Is there anyone else bidding?!"
Governor Göring turned to look at Lu Ming, smiled and shook his head, obviously not prepared to make any more bids.
"3000!" Suddenly someone raised his hand. He was also at table 3 where Lu Ming was. He was the boss of Jordan Trading Company, a slightly fat middle-aged man named Jordan.
He is not a top-tier rich man. He obviously values this opportunity very much. He has been flattering Governor Goering and Mrs. Bridget just now. Now he is obviously planning to buy the auction items that Governor Goering paid for and give them to Goering.
Governor Lin.
Lu Ming glanced at him, raised his hand and said: "Ten thousand!"
The whole place was immediately in an uproar, and Jordan was also stunned.
When the host was counting down, Jordan finally raised his hand and said tremblingly: "Twenty thousand!"
Lu Ming raised his hand without hesitation: "I will pay 50,000!"
The whole place was in an uproar. Jordan's face turned slightly pale and he began to sweat on his forehead.
The emcee's voice became excited. For them, of course, the higher the price of the auction items, the more successful their hosting was.
"Okay! Commissioner Bit's bid is 50,000. It seems that our artistic photo album is very touching. From an artistic point of view, it is also a priceless treasure! It will be passed down to future generations and truly record our history. It is so precious!" The emcee himself said.
I don’t know what I’m talking about, but in this kind of battle, if the other party doesn’t raise his hand, he just wants to delay the time and get the other party to raise his hand again. According to their bidding rules, if you raise your hand one more time, you will get tens of thousands more.
However, Jordan's face turned pale and he hesitated again and again. His hands were as heavy as ten thousand kilograms and he just couldn't lift them.
The emcee kept talking nonsense for a long time. Seeing that this guy obviously didn't have the courage to raise his hand anymore, he had no choice but to start a countdown and finally announced that the auction item had been successfully bid by Bit Commissioner.
Eunice whispered beside Lu Ming: "Father, why don't you sell it to Uncle Jordan?" Obviously, she was very happy that the photo of her and her friends was auctioned for such a high price, but when her godfather took it back, she
I feel a little distressed, but it's just a few photos. If my father likes it, he can take photos with Danni and the others.
Before Lu Ming could speak, Bridget smiled and said: "Eunice, your father loves you very much!"
She watched this scene with interest, her deep blue eyes seeming to see through everything.
In the next auction, the price for a successful bid will inevitably be higher.
After all, a few photos of refugees can fetch a high price of 50,000 yuan, but the price of jewelry and so on is very low, and it is hard to show off their faces. Therefore, although these rich people feel pain, they will still shout out more prices.
The emcee was very happy. He is the exclusive emcee for charity auctions at the Yajie. Today's auction can be said to be the most successful in recent years.
Bridget also smiled at Lu Ming and said, "General Bit, thank you. We should be able to exceed our mission this time."
As he spoke, the emcee's voice suddenly trembled with excitement. It was obviously the finale, "Gentlemen! Ladies! The next auction item! It is the precious jewelry donated by Mrs. Bridget - Blue Flame!"
The dazzling sapphire necklace is full of brilliant colors, and there seems to be flames beating in the gemstones. It is very stunning.
This is Mrs. Bridget's most cherished necklace. She was still wearing it yesterday.
Of course, everyone here knows that in the end this necklace will be photographed back by Governor Göring.
Moreover, the person who secretly pays the bill is usually Mr. Ford, the boss of Ford Diamond who is currently sitting at table 2.
Ford Diamonds almost monopolizes the high-end jewelry market in the Gade area. Ford is one of the top richest men in the region, with a net worth of tens of millions.
Of course, there are also legends that he had secret contacts with several gangs such as the Hammer Gang in the early days, and made his fortune by selling stolen goods for them.
Right now, I am also laundering money for these gangs.
On the auction stage, the high-pitched voice of the emcee sounded, "The starting price is ten thousand yuan!"
As a result, bids came and went, all for fun.
When Governor Goering raised his hand and the bid reached 170,000 yuan, everyone knew by the look on Governor Goering's face that it was almost done and they could no longer raise their hands.
Moreover, if a collection of refugee photos had not been auctioned for 50,000 yuan, this set of jewelry would have been auctioned for 80,000 to 90,000 yuan. Now, it can only be raised higher, causing Mr. Ford to spend a little more money.
"Are there any more bids?" the host asked loudly, feeling vaguely unsatisfied.
"Two hundred thousand!" Lu Ming suddenly raised his hand.
The whole place was silent for a moment, and then, with a coax, everyone began to whisper and discuss.
Governor Goering was startled, then turned to look at Lu Ming: "Bit, do you know what you are doing?"
Lu Ming smiled slightly: "Mrs. Bridget's most cherished personal jewelry, how can it reflect its preciousness for a mere hundred thousand yuan?"
Bridget smiled and said nothing.
Governor Göring took a deep look at Lu Ming and raised his hand: "Twenty-one thousand."
Lu Ming raised his hand: "Three hundred thousand!"
At another table, Ford's expression changed slightly.
Governor Göring took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, raised his hands and said: "Four hundred thousand!"
The whole place was in an uproar.
Lu Ming raised his hand almost without thinking, "Fifty thousand!"
Golin's face was livid, and he turned to look at Lu Ming, "Bit, you have to know that if the auction ends and you can't pay the money, you will violate the law."
Lu Ming smiled and said: "Justice Fan Lunding is here to bear witness. I will not bid illegally."
Goering nodded, with a livid face, turned around and raised his hand, "Six hundred thousand!"
Lu Ming still raised his hand carelessly: "Seven hundred thousand!"
On the other table, Ford's face turned pale and he was already covering his chest.
Goering stared at Lu Ming, raised his hand and said: "Eight hundred thousand!" But while raising his hand, he made a gesture, and Ford noticed it. After being stunned for a moment, he let out a long breath.
Lu Ming looked at Golin and said with a smile: "Sir Governor, you no longer want to take the necklace, but you are raising my price, right? You want to see my embarrassment after I can't get the money? But be careful,
I might not raise my hand next time." After speaking, he raised his hand and said calmly: "One million!"
Golin looked at Lu Ming quietly with a calm expression, but obviously, Lu Ming's words made him hesitate. He was worried that he would really donate more than one million yuan without raising his hand. Although Ford Gold paid for it, many things have a problem.
degree.
The host's heart was pounding at this moment, but he didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, "One million! Everyone, is there anyone who bids? Countdown now!"
"three!"
There was silence in the venue.
"two!"
The emcee's voice also trembled slightly, and he glanced at Governor Göring with some fear. He was only worried that if the necklace was really taken away by someone else, Governor Göring would turn his anger on him.
For a long time, no "one" sounded, and the venue was extremely silent.
Suddenly, the master of ceremonies realized something and hurriedly said: "One!" The governor obviously would not call out the price anymore, so the longer it was delayed, the more humiliation it would bring to the governor.
"The blue flame, Mr. Bit's bid of one million was successful!" The emcee slammed the gavel.
Lu Ming looked at Governor Goering and smiled: "Actually, my psychological price is two million!"
At the table, no one dared to speak, and there was a complete silence.
No one knows how much hatred General Bute and Governor Göring have. Right now, they are still ridiculing Governor Göring for not being brave enough or decisive enough.
Governor Goering's face had calmed down. He smiled and said to Lu Ming: "Young people rarely like to do charity. You are very good." He turned to Bridget and said: "Liz, we want to thank Bit for helping you with the necklace."
The auction has fetched a sky-high price, and congratulations to you for donating one million to this charity. It is a great story for us and my husband to be able to donate one million to charity because of Bitt's blessing!"
Bridget smiled and said nothing.
At this time, it turned out that some people who didn't know who Lu Ming was were whispering to each other to find out.
Especially those lucky elites who live far away from the table are very rare to know Lu Ming’s identity. Now, they are spreading the word from ten to ten, and soon they all know that this is the number one controlling Major General Bit, and also the new one.
Commissioner of the joint investigation committee established.
Obviously, General Bit came to the Gede area to stir up trouble. Someone above him was dissatisfied with the Rose Party's dominance in the Gede area. Otherwise, General Bit would not dare to do this.
The characters of General Bute and Governor Goering are also two extremes. One is a legendary military general who was born in a hail of bullets. He is young and frivolous and fearless. It can also be said that he is a reckless and impulsive man who is like a ball of fire. The other is deep and deep.
It's like an unfathomable abyss. Any flame will eventually be extinguished in the abyss. But what if it is a volcano with a steady stream of lava? Will the abyss be baked dry?
In any case, there will be good things to watch next. Perhaps the situation where the Rose Party dominates the Ged area will finally change.
