As soon as Gu Anan finished speaking, Huo Siting understood something.
"What happened yesterday?"
Gu Anan stared at the man's expression, but she didn't expect that he was nervously questioning her at the first moment.
"Don't you know what happened?" Gu An'an took a deep breath and said, "I know, we are husband and wife, but we need to avoid suspicion before choosing the right time to announce it. If you don't want to, you can tell me directly, no.
It has to be this way.”
When she turned around, she concealed the moisture in her eyes and added the last sentence, "Huo Siting, I hate being deceived the most."
The man stood behind Gu Anan and did not chase him. He watched his figure disappear from a distance before making a call.
"Master Huo, your orders." Ji Feng answered the phone.
"Check what happened at the Dongshan Club yesterday." Huo Siting said coldly, "I want the fastest answer."
After hanging up the phone, he strode back.
The auction began. The first auction item was a set of tribute glue from the Nine Dynasties, which was bought by Mr. Wang for 880,000 yuan. Many women cast envious glances.
"Mr. Wang is so kind to Mrs. Wang. They have been married for decades, but they still spend so much money just to buy a set of Nine Dynasty Tribute Glue."
There were also people who wanted to follow in the bidding but did not dare to offend Mr. Wang. The lady beside him couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
"Don't even look at that yellow-faced woman's old face. How old is she to drink Jiuchao Gongjiao? Her whole face is wrinkled. It's better to take an injection of sheep placenta and spread it out, and the effect will be faster!"
The husband next to me was scared to death and couldn't help scolding him: "Keep your voice down, is this allowed to be said? Shut up!"
It would be bad if it reaches Mr. Wang’s ears.
The lady next to me could only shut up.
There are also women who act coquettishly with the men next to them, saying, "Baby, I'm still young and don't need to drink Jiuchao Gongjiao, but people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. I'm by your side. If I don't dress up properly, wouldn't it be an embarrassment to you?"
The second item on auction is a pearl earring, you can always give it to me, right?"
"Okay, okay, I will definitely take a picture of it for you!"
Gu Anan closed her eyes and rested her mind, but her ears could not help but hear various discussions.
The auction is still in progress, and as the first and second competing items are sold at high prices, the atmosphere becomes more and more lively as it goes on.
Finally, when the final competitive product came up, it directly detonated the whole audience.
It was a 15.99 carat Burmese pigeon blood red ruby.
Ruby is the first of the four major gemstones, and a gem-level ore is difficult to obtain.
From hundreds of tons of ore, a 1-carat raw ore was screened, and from thousands of raw ores, a ruby with purity and clarity reaching gem level was screened out.
What's more, this ruby weighs 15.99 carats!
The moment a piece of black velvet appeared holding the pigeon blood red ruby, everyone in the audience looked at it.
The media invited around were also filming like crazy.
This is the main event tonight, the focus of the whole audience.
The person who takes the picture of this pigeon blood red ruby will become the center of conversation throughout Jingzhou!
"This is a pigeon's blood red ruby produced in the Mogok mining area in Myanmar, a place recognized by collectors around the world as producing the most beautiful rubies. The net weight is 15.99 carats. The starting price..."
The auctioneer spoke slowly and deliberately paused for a moment when he mentioned the starting price.
"five million."
Everyone's eyes widened, as if they suspected that their ears had heard wrongly.
five million?
"Dollar dollars!" the auctioneer continued, "each time the price increases, the minimum is five hundred thousand dollars!"
Many people gasped. Five million US dollars is a price of 30 million US dollars. This is just the starting price. The minimum increase is half a million US dollars, more than 3 million US dollars!
There were many wealthy families present at this auction, and everyone wanted to compete for the limelight.
It looks like...
Today, it is very likely to set a new auction record!
At this moment, Mr. Wang, who had taken photos of the Nine Tribute Glutes for his wife at the beginning, raised the sign in his hand.
"Mr. Wang of Wanghua Group, increase the price once! Five and a half million US dollars!"
Another boss raised the sign in his hand.
"Director Chen of Chen Feng Group, increase the price once! Six million US dollars!"
Before the auctioneer's second hammer came down, several more people raised their signs at the same time.
You are chasing after me, everyone is determined to get this pigeon blood red ruby.
Not only are these bosses secretly competing with each other, but the female companions beside them are also clenching their teeth. Their eyes are fixed on the pigeon blood ruby lying on the black velvet. They cannot move their eyes away at all, but they still try to keep their eyes down.
The eyes of the man beside him were full of expectation.
If anyone takes a photo of this gem today, it will be publicized throughout the city the next day!
Not only that, the female companions around them will also be envied and hated by countless people.
Let me ask you, the men and women here are all from the upper class. On the surface, they are friendly and friendly, but secretly they dislike them.
Who doesn’t want to work hard to get the limelight and step on the opponent’s feet and slap him in the face?!
In less than twenty minutes, during the back-and-forth pursuit, the original starting price of the pigeon blood ruby rose to US$5 million, soaring to US$15 million.
That's more than 100 million! This is an astronomical figure that many people will never see or touch in their lifetime, but at this auction, in just a few breaths and a blink of an eye, the number keeps rising.
For a time, many people in the originally fierce pursuit field were daunted by this figure, leaving only wealthy families with strong financial resources still bidding.
Just at this time……
"Thirty million dollars!" a voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone looked in that direction.
Gu Anan, who had closed his eyes to rest, opened his eyes and frowned slightly.
Not only the eyes of the audience, but also the media's cameras immediately followed, and the figures of Huo Yuntian and Yelina suddenly appeared on the big screen of the auction!
Huo Yuntian held Yelina's waist with one hand and held up the sign in his hand. His attitude seemed frivolous and casual, as if he just said it casually.
However, everyone present knew that this was not a casual statement.
Thirty million U.S. dollars, fully doubled, asking for 200 million, just to take a shot of a pigeon blood gem, which other wealthy families would have to consider.
However, behind Huo Yuntian is the Huo family.
Even if you have enough capital to spend so much money, and even if other families can indeed spend this money, you can't help but consider the consequences of offending the Huo family.
After all, the Huo family not only has Huo Yuntian, but also Huo Siyin behind it.
The current person in power, Huo Siting, and the second brother, whose second wife is recuperating due to illness, are not vegetarians either.
For a time, many people who were determined to win the pigeon blood ruby stopped their efforts and had no intention of continuing to compete with Huo Yuntian.
