Su Xinlei noticed his expression and asked urgently: "Did you discover something?"
Situ Yu's eyes opened at Su Xinlei's question, and he said quietly: "That figure from the back seems a bit familiar, but have you seen the face before?"
"That face is a strange face, I don't recognize it." Su Xinlei responded with a frown.
"Oh." Situ Yu responded lightly.
"After a while, you go up and take a closer look." Su Xinlei responded.
"Okay." He responded calmly.
As soon as they finished speaking, their eyes moved towards the action on the stage. At the beginning of the charity auction, the auction was for a sculpture, a sculpture of the Leshan Reclining Buddha.
As the host introduced, this sculpture of the Reclining Buddha was carved by a sculptor who came from the mountainous area. It was lifelike and highly collectible, so the asking price was 100,000, and every time the price was increased, it was also 50,000.
The wealthy businessmen present who liked engraving began to compete to increase the price, and eventually the price was increased to five million, which was won by the chairman of a large group.
Su Xinlei sighed in her heart, if a small carving was sold outside, it could sell for tens of thousands at most, but here, it would sell for millions. Sure enough, the environment is different and the prices are also different, but this is a charity auction, so naturally there are
The element of charity exists, so she will have to shoot a work for charity soon.
Next is a painting. This is an oil painting, a colorful spring plowing picture. The asking price is still 100,000, and the price increase is also 50,000.
When Su Xinlei looked at this painting, she knew that it was a painting from He Chushi Gallery. This painting had great symbolic meaning and gave people a sense of spring.
Spring plowing cannot be seen in this bustling city, so it aroused everyone's curiosity and love. At the beginning, some people shouted one million, but the others followed closely behind, one and a half million,
1.7 million, 2 million...
Seeing that the bidding price kept rising, Su Xinlei lowered her head and said to Situ Yu: "It seems that Mr. He's paintings are quite good."
"This painting is still good. It is inspiring in terms of technique, tone and meaning." Situ Yu looked at the crowd and responded.
"If Senior He were here, I would be very happy." Su Xinlei also sighed.
At this time, the price of this painting had been increased to 3 million. Su Xinlei thought that since she was doing charity, it would not be a big deal to spend some money. She also liked this painting. Until no one asked for extra time, Su Xinlei suddenly raised her hand.
The card said: "Six million."
After saying this, everyone glanced at Su Xinlei, and then they started whispering to each other. They were talking about Su Xinlei's recent scandal, but she didn't care.
Immediately, the host's voice sounded loudly: "Six million will be announced on the 27th, who else wants to add more?"
…
"Six million once...six million twice...six million three times."
The painting finally belonged to Su Xinlei, while Situ Yu beside him smiled and joked: "Honey, you have such good taste."
She knew that Situ Yu wanted to say that she was generous, so she explained: "Actually, doesn't the government just want to raise money for charity? Now that it's here, it can't be too shabby, and if the money is used in poor areas, it can also help many people.
.”
Situ Yu smiled and said nothing. He knew that after she came out of the orphanage, she would naturally think more about the poor, but it was precisely because of this that he liked her.
Then most of the items below were paintings, all of certain value, and were auctioned off at high prices. Situ Yu also took two paintings, and Su Xinlei also took one more.
But the last thing that came out was a bracelet, a very ancient jade bracelet. Su Xinlei looked at the bracelet thoughtfully. Although she didn't recognize the bracelet, the color was transparent, and it looked like good jade.
At this time, Qu Zherui walked up to the two of them and whispered in Su Xinlei's ear: "Xinlei, I heard that this bracelet is Hetian blue jade, called 'Xinrui'."
Su Xinlei was surprised and turned to look at him: "What's your name?"
"It's called 'Xin Rui', but its pistil has three hearts next to the word "Cao" instead of the bud in your name." Qu Zherui explained.
Situ Yu on the side continued: "This is a treasure collected by the museum. Why did the city government put it up for auction? What's the point of the government's big deal this time?"
Qu Zherui said: "This is the newly appointed secretary of the municipal party committee, so it can be seen that he is in charge."
The other guests nearby were also whispering to each other and nodding constantly, showing a touch of satisfaction with the bracelet on their faces.
Su Xinlei glanced at the two of them in confusion: "Why do you know so well?"
Situ Yu smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you that Xuan is in charge of these items?"
"You just said that Xuan is responsible for communicating with the city government to buy paintings, but you didn't say that Xuan is responsible for tonight's charity items!"
"Actually, Xuan is also responsible for these." Situ Yu said.
Su Xinlei asked in confusion: "Does that mean Xuan is here tonight?"
"Yes, it's just a behind-the-scenes operation."
"Oh. No wonder I didn't see his figure." Su Xinlei nodded.
At this time, the host's voice sounded on the stage: "Everyone, this is an ancient jade bracelet. It is a treasure collected by the museum. It was a fine jade article given by the emperor of the Qing Dynasty to his favorite concubine. Its color is bright.
The main reason is that it is made of Hetian jade. Now the government has decided to use this bracelet for charity, which shows that the city leaders love the people."
Su Xinlei looked at the bracelet and thought that it would be a waste to keep this kind of bracelet in a museum. It would be better to use it to help more people. However, she did not expect that what the host said next shocked her: "Everyone, the price of this bracelet is
Ten million, each increase is one million."
She gasped and leaned close to Situ Yu's ear: "Hubby, this bracelet is quite valuable."
"Honey, this is an item given by the emperor to his favorite concubine. Of course it's valuable. I'll buy it later and give it to you, okay?" Situ Yu said to Su Xinlei half-truthfully.
Su Xinlei thought he was joking and responded: "Don't be serious."
Qu Zherui on the side sighed again: "Oh, Xinlei, he has so much money, it is normal to buy this bracelet as a gift to you, but it would be abnormal if he doesn't buy it. However, if he doesn't buy it, I will buy it, and I will buy it and give it to you."
you."
Su Xinlei turned to look at Qu Zherui and said: "Hey, Qu Zherui, don't follow me blindly. I don't need to buy from anyone, I will buy it myself."
The aura was quite domineering, causing the men on both sides to widen their eyes and provoke Situ Yu to say: "Honey, are you sure you can afford it? You have spent a lot now. Chuanghua has lost so much recently. This bracelet
You can’t buy it without hundreds of millions.”
When Su Xinlei heard that it cost hundreds of millions, her face fell. She really couldn't afford it now. Well, she didn't think it was possible.
