When Li Xiaosong saw Li Yang, he suddenly felt a lot more at ease.
Today's environment made him both novel and scared. When he was living with his grandfather, he never thought that one day he would be able to go to a place like this. It was as unrealistic as a dream to him.
The life of these rich young ladies in front of him was like a dream to him.
When he first came in, he was extremely hesitant. As a last resort, Li Yang could only let Haidong take care of him first and take him to the garden to relax. He didn't take him in again until the auction started.
Because of this, no one knows their relationship except Su Youpeng and Hua Xiaotian.
Hua Xiaotian walked up to the rostrum, and the ladies in the audience gradually stopped talking and looked at him with smiles. Hua Xiaotian was considered a celebrity in this circle, and Mr. Hua had always been known as a philanthropist.
Huayu Charity itself was founded by the Hua Family.
Standing in front of the stage, Hua Xiaotian gently bent over and said with a slight smile: "Thank you everyone for coming. No matter how much money is raised in this charity auction, I, Hua Xiaotian, hereby guarantee that it will be completely
Huayu Charity will directly entrust this money to the Li Yang Foundation and use it for the 'Million Love Lunch' plan!"
Li Yang, who was sitting there, was stunned for a moment, and Wang Jiajia also looked a little strange.
Neither of them expected that the final money from the emotional auction would be given to the Li Yang Charitable Foundation. Now the Li Yang Foundation is quite famous in China.
In particular, the recently launched "Millions of Love Lunch" program has been featured in many newspapers and televisions, and has received strong support from the country.
This is a very large plan, Millions of Love Lunches, which means to prepare lunches of love for millions of children, saving them from traveling back and forth at noon, and saving some expenses for their families.
This plan is very large and will take at least several years to realize. It was only recently proposed by the foundation. The person in charge of the foundation even went to Li Yang to report the matter.
Li Yang had no objection to this plan, and gave them an additional 50 million yuan to ensure the success of the plan.
Providing this kind of loving lunch to millions of children requires a lot of money. Even if a child only costs three yuan for a meal, the daily consumption is as much as three million. In a year, it will cost at least
Hundreds of millions of funds.
What's more, various consumptions are required during operation, and more funds are required.
If the foundation were not currently operating very well, they would not have dared to propose such a plan. However, this plan has received support from many people, and there are also some similar charities that raise funds for them, and Huayu Charity is one of them.
"Bah bang bang!"
The people below all clapped their hands. The reputation of the Li Yang Foundation is very good. This money is given to them, and these gentlemen and young ladies feel more at ease. However, no one would have thought that the owner of the foundation would be here again.
Hua Xiaotian walked off the stage with satisfaction. Today's charity auction has officially begun.
The lights on the stage became brighter, and the auctioneer stood in front of the table with a smile, and the first auction item of the day was placed on the table.
"The first auction item today is a Qing Jiaqing blue and white pen holder with a rising pattern. The pen holder is 13 centimeters high and 7.3 centimeters in diameter. It is well preserved and is a rare treasure!"
The auctioneer spoke softly. He did not introduce the preciousness of the pen holder in detail, but simply introduced it.
He understood very well that the people in the audience were not really bidding for these treasures for collection. Let alone a pen holder, they would also bid for even a brick. What they wanted was this atmosphere.
Of course, it is impossible to bid on bricks, otherwise Hua Xiaotian's face would be completely lost.
Of all the people present, the only one who really likes and understands it is probably Li Yang. An Wenping's level is good, but she is far behind Li Yang.
"An antique seller, what do you think of this pen holder?"
The girl in yellow suddenly asked in a low voice. Su Youpeng and the others all looked back at Li Yang. Su Youpeng still had a smile on his face. Li Yang said that he opened an antique shop, and the antique seller seemed to be his title.
Li Yang raised his head and glanced at the girl in yellow, shook his head helplessly, and said in a low voice: "The pen holder is very good. The picture on it is of a scholar. He is standing under the pine tree with his hat on, pointing to the sun in the sky with a majestic posture.
You are strict, your equipment is majestic, and the painting is very accurate!"
Smiling, Li Yang continued: "Raise your finger to see the sun rising slowly, which means the sun is rising high. This type of pen holder was a good gift for friends in ancient times. Since it is a gift, it must be exquisitely made.
Although this pen holder comes from a folk kiln, it is a fine product from a folk kiln and is of great collection value!"
Li Yang's voice was very low, but some people around him still heard it. When they heard Li Yang's comments, the girl in yellow and Bai Zhantao were stunned for a moment.
What Li Yang said was really reasonable. Considering that he said he would open an antique shop, it is really possible.
Bai Zhantao thought more. He knew that Su Youpeng's father was the director of the Shanghai Museum and knew many people in the collecting world. Su Youpeng said that Li Yang was a family friend. It might be the collectors that his father Su Yang knew, not what he understood.
The Su family.
Thinking about it this way, it was easy to explain, but Li Yang's momentum still made him a little confused.
Until now, he only knows that Li Yang's surname is Li, but he doesn't know Li Yang's full name. This is Su Youpeng's deliberate concealment. At Li Yang's age and his relationship with him, if his name is revealed, these young masters will inevitably
Someone will guess Li Yang’s true identity.
As for Li Yang's resources, he is unwilling to share them with others.
Bai Zhantao was confused. Others didn't think so much.
Gao Qiang happened to hear Li Yang's words and looked at him angrily. Li Yang was really an antiques person. He was actually treated lightly by a small antique dealer. This made him even more angry and vowed to retaliate.
hatred.
"fifty thousand!"
"Fifty-eight thousand!"
"Sixty thousand!"
As soon as Li Yang explained, the reserve price of this folk kiln pen holder doubled from 30,000 yuan to 60,000 yuan. This was faster and more lively than a regular auction.
This pen holder was not Li Yang's target. Li Yang just smiled and made no bid.
Gao Qiang had nothing to do with Li Yang now, but that didn't mean he was willing to wait like this. He rolled his eyes and immediately turned back to Li Yang and said: "Boy, what you said is so good, why didn't I see any reaction from you?
?Don’t you have any money? If you don’t have any money, I can lend you some!”
Gao Qiang's voice was not too quiet, and was heard by many people around him. Hua Xiaotian, who was sitting at another table, frowned again.
Zhao Kui turned around and glared at him. Now that the auction had begun, Gao Qiang's neck became stiff. He wished Zhao Kui would mess with him. Hua Xiaotian wouldn't be able to spare them without his bodyguards.
Everyone else also looked at Li Yang, some laughing at the joke and some gloating about his misfortune.
There was still a bit of contempt in their eyes. At this time, they subconsciously elevated themselves a lot. An ordinary antique dealer would naturally not be able to compare with them.
Even the followers can raise their heads high when they look at Li Yang.
They are followers, but they are following stronger people. They are young masters whose family assets are tens of billions or even more. They are not ordinary people. Their own family conditions are also very good, and their family assets are at least several hundred million.
Those who were bidding stopped bidding and all looked at Li Yang.
Li Yang turned around and glanced at Gao Qiang indifferently, feeling a little annoyed in his heart. The fly just taught him a lesson, and now he is annoying him again.
"I'll give you 100,000!"
Li Yang slowly raised his hand. The real value of this pen holder was only 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. One hundred thousand yuan was definitely a very high price. However, the money from this auction was all used for charity and was invested in his love fund. How much more
It doesn't matter if you pay some money.
One hundred thousand, many people smiled again.
This young man who runs an antique shop really can't stand the excitement. After Gao Qiang said this, he came to bid. There are a lot of things to be photographed today, and he will compete for them later.
As soon as Li Yang finished bidding, he smiled and said to Gao Qiang: "I have paid one hundred thousand even if I don't have any money, but you don't have any money. Do you have less money than me?"
"Wow!"
Many people laughed, and some people talked quietly. The auctioneer on the stage was a little stunned. He had never encountered such an occasion.
Gao Qiang suddenly stood up and shouted loudly: "Two hundred thousand, I offer two hundred thousand, do you still dare to follow me?"
"Half a million!"
Li Yang gently raised his hand and stretched out five fingers. Liu Gang's lips raised a smile again. This high-ranking man deliberately angered Li Yang, but it seemed that it was the other way around. He was the one who was really angered.
"one million!"
Gao Qiang shouted loudly, and Hua Xiaotian frowned tightly, hesitating whether to go over and coordinate, so as not to be too stiff.
The people around me talked louder, laughed more, and became more interested.
An ordinary auction wouldn't be as good-looking as this kind of fighting spirit. Some people started to cheer up Li Yang and make him bid more.
"Half a million!"
Li Yang stretched out another palm, and everyone was stunned for a moment. Gao Qiang's face showed a trace of joy. He thought Li Yang couldn't follow him, but when he was about to speak, Li Yang was faster than him.
"I'm talking about U.S. dollars!" Li Yang added.
This is not a regular auction, and there are no currency restrictions on the auction items. You can bid in US dollars if you want. Li Yang is really confused about this.
Five hundred thousand US dollars, that's more than three million yuan, much better than Gao Qiang's one million.
People around him started talking. Gao Qiang's face turned blue and white for a while. He understood that he had been tricked by Li Yang again. Fortunately, he didn't say the mocking words just now, otherwise he would be even more embarrassed now.
But this also made him even more annoyed.
"One million US dollars, I'll offer you one million US dollars, boy, do you still dare to follow me?"
Gao Qiang shouted loudly, one million US dollars, more than six million yuan. Many people became more interested. The current scene was much more interesting to them than the auction.
"I won't follow you anymore!" Li Yang shook his head, and Gao Qiang opened his mouth again, smiling.
"I think those kids will thank you!"
Li Yang suddenly said something with a smile. Gao Qiang was stunned for a moment, then snorted coldly and said: "Don't be a hero if you don't have money to follow. I don't need to ask whether those children are grateful or not. They won't thank you anyway!"
"
After speaking, Gao Qiang turned his head away, but he felt a little depressed.
At this moment, he no longer felt the joy of victory. Only then did he remember that at first he just wanted to anger the other party, but he never thought of spending a lot of money to take pictures of this thing.
"Snapped!"
The auctioneer finally reacted and quickly put down the hammer. The first auction item, a blue and white pen holder with a starting price of only 30,000 yuan, was sold for more than 6 million yuan. He also set a record for himself.
The girl in yellow has always been paying attention to Li Yang, and she is curious about Li Yang.
It seemed that Li Yang had given up and did not dare to continue to compete, but she understood that Li Yang did this on purpose. From the beginning, Gao Qiang was calculated by Li Yang and fell into his trap step by step. In the end, he used
I bought the pen holder at a very high price.
This can be guessed from the faint smile that always appeared on the corner of Li Yang's mouth.
Before the girl in yellow had thought about it, the second auction item started. This was an ancient jade from the Ming Dynasty. The starting price was also 30,000 yuan, and it soon became 80,000 yuan.
This time Gao Qiang did not continue to provoke, and finally the ancient jade was sold for 100,000 yuan.
Because of the previous pen holder, no one was very interested in the transaction of this ancient jade. Everyone was still talking about what happened just now.
The subsequent bidding was similar to that of ancient jade. The auction speed was much faster. After a few bids, the sale could be completed and auctioned together. This was not a formal auction. It took almost a long time. The bidders did not care about the items at all and just donated their money.
.
Gao Qiang was not targeting Li Yang. He had just received the news that his bodyguards had arrived. A total of ten people were waiting outside.
With these ten people, he believed that he could break Li Yang's legs and vent their anger.
Li Jianyi's five treasures also appeared, and Li Yang took pictures of them one by one.
These five treasures cost Li Yang 700,000 yuan. These gentlemen and ladies are all money-loving masters, and they raise the prices at will. Every item is much higher than the normal price.
In fact, this is an auction, which is similar to a fundraiser.
With five items in hand, Li Yang's mission was completed. He looked back at Li Xiaosong, who was looking at him excitedly.
The value of these five treasures is correspondingly higher. They are the treasures that grandpa usually plays with more frequently. Xiaosong noticed them as soon as they appeared.
"This is the last auction item today. The Ming Dynasty jade pagoda provided by Hua Shao. The starting price is one million yuan. Bidding starts now!"
The auctioneer's voice rang again. There were a lot of auction items today, more than thirty items in total. However, except for the first item that had an accident, the rest were very fast. It took more than an hour to get the last one.
pieces.
The jade pagoda was placed on the table, and Hua Xiaotian couldn't help but show a little pride on his face.
This jade pagoda is very good. It is a seven-story jade pagoda. It is nearly ten centimeters in height. It is made of blue and white jade. The carving is exquisite. The starting price of one million is not high.
This jade pagoda is not at the same level as the previous auction items. This is a truly exquisite piece.
The jade pagoda also attracted Li Yang's attention. In the past, most of them were porcelain calligraphy and paintings. The real value was only tens of thousands of yuan, and the highest ones were only over a hundred thousand. This jade pagoda is actually a treasure worth more than one million yuan.
.
"One million and one million!"
"1.2 million!"
"One million two hundred and eighty thousand!"
The bids below were rising one after another. Regardless of whether they recognized the jade pagoda or not, many people would bid to support it. After all, this was a treasure donated by Hua Xiaotian.
"1500000!"
Su Youpeng called out a price. He knew something about the goods. After all, his old man was a celebrity. The jade pagoda felt very good at first sight, and it happened to be a good thing for his friends.
"Two million!"
Su Youpeng had just shouted, and Gao Qiang's voice came up again. He was obviously deliberately angry with Su Youpeng. Su Youpeng rolled his eyes, it was like he had eaten a fly.
"Seller of antiques, how about this jade pagoda?"
The girl in yellow stepped forward and asked in a low voice. Li Yang turned to look at her, smiled softly, turned away again, and did not answer her this time.
Everyone likes beautiful girls, but ignorant ones make people hate them.
The price of the jade pagoda was still rising. After Gao Qiang paid the price, Su Youpeng did not continue to fight for it. Gao Qiang also gave up. Others added tens of thousands to tens of thousands more.
Nowadays, most of the people who are interested in the jade pagoda are the elderly whose family members like to collect. This jade pagoda looks really good. Taking it back as a gift will make the elderly happy, support Hua Xiaotian, and contribute to charity.
, is a good thing that achieves multiple things with one stone.
Li Yang took a closer look at the Jade Tower and nodded silently.
This jade pagoda is made in Suzhou, a product of the late Ming Dynasty. The carving is very good and has reached the master level, but it is still a little far behind the top masters.
Li Yang was a certain distance away from the table in front of him, and the jade tower was small, so Li Yang simply activated his special ability.
Some of the items that were auctioned before looked exquisite. Li Yang also turned on his special ability to observe them. The three-dimensional picture will make it more intuitive and clear.
The three-dimensional picture opened, and the jade tower floated quietly in the picture with multiple layers of aperture. Li Yang blocked everything around him.
Many details of the Jade Pagoda were revealed in the three-dimensional picture. Li Yang's eyes slowly became a lot bigger. This time it was not because of the surface of the Jade Pagoda, but because of a metal object hovering inside the Jade Pagoda.
There is something else hidden in this jade tower.
The metal object looked like a blade, and it was hovering around the tower. There were words on the blade, but it was bent and couldn't be seen clearly. Li Yang slowly recalled it under the three-dimensional screen, and tried hard to restore the words to their original shape before he could identify them.
The characters are very simple, just two ancient Chinese seal characters, and they are arranged horizontally on the blade.
After seeing these two words clearly, Li Yang's face suddenly changed, and there was still a deep surprise in his eyes. These two words are not complicated. One word is "Nianwu" and the other is "Kunkun". Together they are Wukun.
My Kun Dao?
Li Yang still had a look of surprise on his face, these two words shocked him too much.
Wu Kun Dao, this was rumored to be the unique weapon of Lu Zigang, the master of the jade carving world. It was lost with the death of Lu Zigang. It is an extremely precious sword. Without it, Lu Zigang, the master of the generation, would not have appeared.
Some people also believe that Lu Zigang’s Wu Kun Dao is actually the Kun Wu Dao.
Kunwu knife has been circulated since ancient times. It is said that there is an island in the West Sea. There is a strange stone on the island called Kunwu stone. This stone can be used to smelt iron. The iron produced is as bright as water essence and can be cut into jade.
Like soil.
Therefore, Kunwu Dao is also called Kunwu Cutting Jade Dao. There are many records in history books. It is said that He Shibi was unable to make the jade seal passed down from the country at first, which made Li Si's hair turn gray. Finally, he adopted the advice of his subordinates and used
Kunwu's jade-cutting knife is the most popular for making jade seals passed down to the country.
What are the facts? Is Lu Zigang's Wukun Dao the rumored Kunwu Cutting Jade Dao? Because of the disappearance of the Wukun Dao, it has become an eternal mystery that no one has solved yet.
"Two million six hundred and twenty thousand!"
The competition for this last jade pagoda is extremely fierce, and there are still people bidding on it, which has more than tripled the reserve price of one million.
"Two million six hundred and fifty thousand!" Another person shouted out a new bidding price, and Hua Xiaotian nodded with satisfaction.
At first, he estimated that this jade pagoda was only 2.2 million yuan. He was very satisfied with the price. Now it has reached more than 2.6 million yuan, which is considered to have exceeded the target.
"Two million seven hundred thousand!"
"Two million seven hundred and fifty thousand!"
There are still three or four people bidding, which proves that the price of this jade pagoda can continue to rise, and may even rise to three million.
"three million!"
As soon as Hua Xiaotian thought of three million, someone here offered this price. Most of them looked at the new bidder, and many of them had astonishment on their faces.
The bidder this time was Li Yang.
With his special ability, Li Yang carefully analyzed the blade with the word Wu Kun. The material of the blade in the jade tower is different from ordinary iron. Regardless of whether it is a real Wu Kun knife, Li Yang will not know how to use it.
Give it up.
If it is really Wu Kun Dao, then he will make a lot of money.
"Three and a half million!"
As soon as Li Yang spoke up, another person stood up. Gao Qiang couldn't help but fight Li Yang again, but this time he didn't go up too high at one time, but increased it slowly, so as not to scare Li Yang away.
Li Yang frowned slightly. This fly is really disgusting. This time Li Yang really wanted to take a picture of this thing and he must not let others take it away.
Suddenly, a person walked in quickly outside, walked beside Hua Xiaotian, lowered his head and whispered a few words.
Hua Xiaotian's expression suddenly changed, and he stood up immediately with a bright smile on his face.
"Everyone, I'm sorry, our auction will be temporarily suspended. An honored guest came a little late due to something else, but he still came. I have to go out to greet him!"
After Hua Xiaotian finished speaking, he strode out, and the young masters who were sitting with him also walked out. Li Yang, who was about to bid, had to give up. The three-dimensional screen was still on, and he was carefully studying the objects hovering in the Jade Tower.
blade inside.
The Jade Pagoda itself is not big, so looking at it this way, the blade is not too big either, it is very thin, and it does look somewhat similar to the rumored Wu Kun Dao.
"It's Li Zhiming!"
"He's here too. Mr. Hua is so proud!"
"It turns out it's him. No wonder Mr. Hua is so anxious!"
Hua Xiaotian came back quickly with a man in his thirties. Looking at the man walking in the front and center, many people started talking in low voices.
Many people looked at the man who just came in with envy. Gao Qiang even stood up with a flattering smile on his face.
Li Zhiming is thirty-three years old this year. He is not a rich man, but his status is more prominent than these rich men. He is the son of the mayor of Shanghai and a son of an official.
in the country, having power is more important than having money.
Li Zhiming walked forward with a smile. His position must be at the front. When he passed Li Yang's table, Li Zhiming suddenly turned around and looked at Wang Jiajia and Li Yang in surprise.
