June 12, 2028, is the Dragon Boat Festival, which is connected with the weekend and has a three-day holiday.
Lu Cheng and Jiang Qiuyun once again came to the auction organized by Classic Auction House.
This time, the auction was borrowed from the Time Art City Exhibition Hall, which has a large internal space. There were many people attending the auction, at least 1,500 people.
The two arrived late and sat at the back.
Jiang Qiuyun looked at the crowds of people in front of the packed seats and asked in a low voice: "Why are so many people here?"
Lu Cheng said: "This is a jewelry show, which can easily arouse people's interest. You see, most of the people who came this time are women."
The last comprehensive auction mainly traded antiques, paintings and calligraphy, and there were not many emeralds and jade. Most of the participants in the auction were middle-aged and elderly men. But this time it was just the opposite. Most of the people who came were young and middle-aged women. Women can buy jewelry.
Wearing it is not for the purpose of keeping the bottom of the bag.
Lu Cheng had a thick auction book in his hand. He opened the auction book and took a quick look at it, then handed it to Jiang Qiuyun and said: "They are all mid-to-high-end jewelry. The base prices are quite high, but none of them are ridiculously expensive. Whoever comes here
If you bite the bullet, you can probably afford it. There are a lot of rich people these days, who doesn’t have a few millionaires? There are so many millionaires.”
Jiang Qiuyun flipped through the pages and said: "The listed prices are only the reserve prices, not the final auction prices. The transaction price may be higher."
"That's natural. There are so many people coming, and if some people are hot-headed, they can raise the price significantly."
"How many of your lots are there?"
"27 items in total."
“I don’t know how much money I can fetch at auction.”
"According to Jin Dachang, the guaranteed minimum price is 50 million."
Jiang Qiuyun closed the auction book, looked at the auction hall, and said: "Why are there so many screens? Is there a live broadcast combined with online auctions?"
Lu Cheng said: "These screens are for the live audience to see. After all, jewelry is very small and cannot be seen clearly from such a distance. The screen will enlarge it so that people can see it more clearly and attract people's attention. I heard from Jin Dachang
Said that this auction will be synchronized with the Internet. If you want to auction through the Internet, you must first apply for a VIP membership of the classic auction house. As long as you are a member, you do not need to come to the site. You can participate in the auction no matter where you are." p>
"If that's the case, why do so many people come?"
"Because it's a holiday, everyone has free time."
After a while, Jiang Qiuyun suddenly said: "Hey, I saw Hu Qikun!"
Lu Cheng asked: "Where?"
"The third row from the front left. There is a middle-aged woman sitting next to her."
"That should be his mother."
"There was also a young woman sitting on his right side... She turned her head, and I seemed to recognize her... It turned out to be Lin Yuqi!"
"Who is Lin Yuqi?"
"The school belle of our school, from the pharmacy department."
Lu Cheng smiled and asked: "How many school beauties are there in your school?"
Jiang Qiuyun smiled and said: "Among the four major school beauties, I am lucky enough to be ranked first. Lin Yuqi is second. There are two others, namely Mu Fangming and Huang Yanxi. Wait for me to look for it again, maybe Mu Fangming and Huang Yanxi
Here too."
"We are sitting in the back. Unless they turn their heads, how can we recognize them just by looking at their backs?"
"Since she is a beautiful woman, you can easily identify her just by looking at her back. Those with plump figures can be ignored."
Because the auction has not officially started yet, many people in front kept looking back, and many women looked left and right to compete with each other. After a while, Jiang Qiuyun found her target.
"Here, look at the fourth row in the fifth row on the right front. The person wearing a white dress is Mu Fangming. She is from the Department of Basic Medicine... Next to her is her boyfriend, the president of the student union. His surname seems to be Zhu. I heard that there are many people in the family.
There is a background..."
Lu Cheng asked: "You have to attend classes and are busy writing books on weekdays. How can you find the time to understand these things?"
Jiang Qiuyun said: "Zhang Min and Hong Qingni told me this. Sometimes when I walk on campus, I can meet these people head-on."
"Is there another school beauty? Is she here? Could it be that a small auction actually attracted four school beauties? According to this ratio, in more than a dozen universities in Quancheng, these school beauties alone would fill the seats
Full."
"Huang Yanxi didn't come, maybe she went back to her hometown during the holidays. Some classmates live far away and are from other cities, not even from Shandong province."
While he was talking, a mother and daughter suddenly walked in from outside and sat directly to the left of Lu Cheng!
Lu Cheng glanced out of the corner of his eye and noticed that the mother and daughter were both relatively tall. He turned around and took a closer look, and was shocked to find that it was Guan Sangyue!
"Eh? Why are you here too? Aren't you going to participate in the national team's training camp?"
Guan Sangyue looked at him with a look of resentment and whispered: "Where is the thing you promised me? Have you finished it?"
Lu Cheng said: "It's been done a long time ago, but it's a pity that I can't find you."
"Why didn't you call me?"
"Sorry, I lost your number."
"Huh, you're lying." She looked at Jiang Qiuyun on the other side and said, "Miss Jiang, your boyfriend is very unreliable!"
Jiang Qiuyun smiled slightly and said: "I believe Lu Cheng will not lie. Miss Guan, you are so busy training, how do you have time to attend the auction?"
Guan Sangyue said: "Isn't this a holiday? I'm taking advantage of the holiday to go back to Quan City to rest for two days. This is my mother."
Lu Cheng and Jiang Qiuyun both smiled and greeted: "Hello, aunt."
Guan Sangyue's mother was wearing a cool green silk top, a blue skirt, and a pair of blue jade earrings. She looked like a noble lady. She nodded to the two of them and smiled: "You are all classmates.
?"
Guan Sangyue said: "Mom, this male classmate is the Lu Cheng I told you about. He will participate in the 100 meters, 10,000 meters and marathon events in the Olympic Games."
"Oh, that's such a coincidence!"
Obviously, Guan Sangyue did not tell her mother about the Fengxing Talisman, so her mother only exchanged a few polite greetings and then focused her attention on the auction.
At this time, the auction has already begun.
The auctioneer's tongue bloomed like a lotus, praising each item as if it were a flower.
There is a photographer nearby who enlarges the auction items and displays them on the big screen, and the auction is synchronized with the Internet.
There are people nearby who monitor the online quotations and alert the auctioneers on site.
The auctioneer can also see the online quotation. You don't need to read it when you first start bidding. When you finally determine the auction price, you must take into account both the on-site and the Internet.
This is a relatively new auction method. If the auctioneer were to rely on him alone, he would probably be too busy.
Guan Sangyue's mother looked at each auction item, her eyes becoming fanatical.
Guan Sangyue frowned slightly and looked down at her nails, looking bored.
Lu Cheng quietly took out a wind charm and handed it to her.
She smiled instantly, and the impatience on her face disappeared. She approached Lu Cheng and asked, "How many times can it be used?"
Lu Cheng whispered: "50 times. Acceleration 3-4%."
"That's great. How can I thank you?"
"No, this is a gift."
She almost whispered into Lu Cheng's ear: "You are such a good person."
Guan Sangyue's previous popular charm can be used 100 times. She has used it more than 40 times in competitions and key training sessions. It's only June, and there are still more than two months before the Olympics.
For her, whether she has a popular charm or not is very important.
During the training camp, there will be multiple tests. If she fails to run under 11 seconds each time, the coaches and officials will doubt her strength and may even remove her.
One more wind talisman calmed her worried heart. The dark clouds above her head were blown away by the wind, and the sky became clear and the sun was shining brightly.
The mother turned her head and saw her daughter being so close to Lu Cheng and the happy expression on her face. She couldn't help but glance at Lu Cheng and thought to herself: "What's wrong with Sang Yue? Could it be that she likes Lu Cheng? Lu Cheng does.
She has a girlfriend, why doesn’t Sang Yue give up? No, I have to persuade her when I get back."
At this time, Lu Cheng had already turned his head and whispered to Jiang Qiuyun.
"Is this half-circle emerald green bracelet ours?"
"Well, it just sold for 9.8 million, which is much higher than the estimate Jin Dachang gave me. It seems that the auction is very popular and the purchasing power is very strong..."
"The quotation just now came from the Internet. Will these online bidders just shout out the price and not buy it?"
"Only VIP members who have registered in advance are qualified to bid. If you do not buy the bid, you will have to pay a certain penalty."
"Is this next ring also ours?"
"Yes, this one is relatively cheap, with a base price of 1.5 million."
However, with the auctioneer's praises, there were many people bidding on the spot, and the price went up!
"1.8 million!"
"2 million!"
"2.1 million..."
Lu Cheng saw Hu Qikun also holding up a sign to bid!
"2.4 million!"
"2.8 million!"
"3.5 million!"
…………
In less than two minutes, this sun-green jade ring was raised to 4.4 million.
Hu Qikun's mother gave him a hand and shook her head slightly, meaning: "It's a bit expensive! Let's forget it."
Hu Qikun felt unwilling and turned around to see who was raising the price.
However, when he turned around, he saw Jiang Qiuyun and Lu Cheng, and also saw Guan Yuesang sitting next to Lu Cheng. His expression immediately changed, he stood up suddenly, and raised the bidding sign again.
"4.5 million!"
"4.8 million..."
In the end, he finally bought this sun-green jade ring inlaid with platinum for 5.7 million yuan. The corners of his mouth turned up and he gave Lu Cheng a contemptuous look.
The girl sitting on his right, the school beauty Lin Yuqi, was flushed with excitement. She pulled his sleeves with trembling hands and asked in a low voice: "Did you buy this for me?"
Hu Qikun gritted his teeth: "I bought it for you!"
Lin Yuqi was very excited: "Ah, you are so good to me..."
Hu Qikun's mother looked cold and felt unhappy, which was self-evident.
Hu Qikun didn't notice that his mother was angry. His mind was still on Lu Cheng and Jiang Qiuyun in the back row, and he kept scolding silently: "Poor...adulterer...whore..." He hated Lu Cheng in his heart.
He also scolded Jiang Qiuyun. At this moment, he completely forgot that Lu Cheng was a man of the hour. He had endorsed several big companies and earned dozens of times as much money as him!
Guan Sangyue's mother, who was sitting in the back row, also saw Hu Qikun and said, "Hey, isn't that Xiao Hu? He chased you for a month, right?"
Guan Sangyue snorted: "That's a bastard."
"He just bought a ring, and his family is very well off."
"The family background is good, but the character is not good! Mom, don't mention him!"
"Xiaoyue, Mom brought you here just to make you open your eyes and take a look. There are rich families five hundred miles around Quancheng. Which boy do you like? Mom will help you think of something...
”
"Mom, you are really idle! In two months, the Olympic Games will begin! What if I win the championship and attract everyone's attention, and many people know me..."
"Mom, you are my only daughter, and you are not allowed to marry elsewhere!"
"Stop it, I don't want to get married at all!"
While talking, the auctioneer introduced a new item, a beautiful green jade necklace.
Guan Sangyue's mother's eyes shone brightly, and she began to hold up the sign repeatedly, trying to take it down.
Guan Sangyue lowered her head to look at Feng Xing Fu. She was not interested in those colorful jewelry.
This girl is stubborn and wants to achieve results on the sports field. Her actual level is among the top five in the country. Although she is not too outstanding, she is still one of the top players in the country. There are only a few national-level athletes like this in the world. Since having the "Feng Xing Tal", her performance has suddenly improved a lot, and she has become a top sprinter in the world! She enjoys the feeling of chasing the wind on the sports field, so naturally she does not take these jewelry in her eyes.
"Vulgar! I can't bear to be vulgar! These people are so boring!"
She looked at Lu Cheng who was sitting next to her and Jiang Qiuyun on the other side, and thought: "Lu Cheng is quite weird! Since he came with his girlfriend, why didn't he bid for it? He is just sitting here.
Don’t you feel ashamed?”

Little did she know that Lu Cheng was very happy in his heart!
Lu Cheng leaned his body to the right and rubbed Jiang Qiuyun's temples, really close to her ears, and whispered: "Six pieces of jewelry I sent for auction have been sold, and the transaction price is much higher than expected. If this continues, there will be a total of 27 pieces of jewelry.
, at least hundreds of millions!"
At the beginning, according to Zhang Xinyu, the finished products made from jade raw materials must be worth hundreds of millions. The problem is that Lu Cheng did not put all the finished products up for auction. He also left some rare and exquisite products.
In the final analysis, the price of jade jewelry in 2028 has increased again! One is because good jade is becoming more and more scarce, and the other is because people have more and more money. Not to mention first-tier cities in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, let’s talk about second-tier cities like Quancheng, and the surrounding five
How many multi-millionaires are there within a hundred miles! These days, there are one or two properties owned by multi-millionaires!
In the past few years, the economy has grown steadily, coupled with the sharp appreciation of the RMB, China's per capita GDP has reached US dollars, making China the country with the most wealthy people and the most purchasing power in the world!
In this case, jade jewelry not only can be worn, but also has the function of preserving and appreciating its value, so it has attracted many people to compete to buy it, raising the auction price repeatedly.
This large-scale auction lasted for three hours, with a total of more than 200 pieces of jewelry sold, and a turnover of more than 2.5 billion.
Lu Cheng didn't raise his sign once, he just sat there and watched the excitement.
Guan Sangyue's mother glanced at him several times and thought to herself: "Isn't this young man short of money? If he is short of money, how dare he bring a beautiful female companion here to embarrass himself?"
She bought a jade necklace and spent more than 9 million. Although she has not received the goods yet, she is happy and satisfied.
The auction was over, and everyone got up and walked out.
Guan Sangyue turned around and smiled at Lu Cheng, got up and followed her mother to meet the people at the auction house to make payment and pick up the goods.
Lu Cheng and Jiang Qiuyun left together.
It will take two days for the auction money to be credited to his account. After deducting all expenses, it is expected that there will be another 120 million. With this money, he can go to Kunming and Ruili to buy some items during the summer vacation.
A big stone.
It is said that the highest bids in Myanmar's public market have reached hundreds of millions as early as 20 years ago. In recent years, the highest bids have been more than one billion yuan, so Lu Cheng's capital of more than 100 million cannot make a big splash.<
