At eight o'clock in the evening, Ye Fan followed Ye Tianci to the Cihang Auction.
Ye Fan originally just wanted to let Ye Tianci vent his anger, but when he heard that the saint was likely to appear, he became more interested.
Ye Fan wanted to see what was outstanding about those who publicly supported Ye Jincheng.
He brought a checkbook and then came to Baocheng Pier.
There is a small cruise ship here that can accommodate four hundred people. Cihangzhai will auction it here tonight.
There are three checkpoints on the cruise ship, which are heavily guarded. No one can get in at all. They must hold the invitation post or follow the owner of the post.
And one invitation post can bring up to two people.
Although Ye Tianci is a waste in Baocheng, he is still the adopted son of the Ye family, so it is more than enough to get an invitation.
Of course, in addition to the invitation card, capital verification is also required. You must have a check of more than 100 million to board the ship.
"Master Ye, will this auction be held every month?"
As Ye Fan followed Ye Tianci, he curiously asked: "What good things are there?"
"Once a month?"
Ye Tianci swept away Yan Minghou's depression, shook his white fan and smiled:
"Brother, you are treating Cihangzhai as a vegetable market."
"If it can be done once a year, it is already an Ali Tuo Buddha."
"Cihangzhai is different from ordinary auction house activities. It has three characteristics that make people flock to it."
"First, the items it auctions are basically rare treasures, and many of them are unique in the world."
"For example, Picasso's famous paintings, the First Emperor's imperial seal, the Queen's Crown Diamond, the Titanic's Heart of the Ocean..."
"In short, they are all very rare and precious things."
"Second, Cihangzhai will take out a pill at the end of every auction."
"These pills are forged by the old masters themselves. They can beautify the skin, prolong life, or improve one's skills."
"Cihangzhai pills are really effective."
"Three years ago, a casino tycoon who had cancer and was given a death notice immediately improved after taking Cihangzhai pills obtained at auction."
"He lived three years longer than the time doctors judged he would die."
"In the past three years, he not only allowed him to arrange his funeral arrangements calmly, but also enjoyed his life to the fullest for three years. He died in the hospital last month."
Ye Tianci told Ye Fan the secret, his voice was very low, obviously he was in great awe of Cihangzhai.
Ye Fan nodded when he heard this: "It seems that Cihangzhai is indeed extraordinary."
"Third, Cihangzhai guarantees that all auction items, including pills, are absolutely genuine and without moisture."
Ye Tianci continued the previous topic: "Once a defect is found, Cihangzhai will compensate the customer ten times."
"This completely beats Sotheby's auction houses, which only auction and never identify authenticity."
"That's why every year when Cihangzhai bids, big names from home and abroad will show up."
"The three hundred places are always full."
He is very self-aware: "I was able to get the invitation to Cihangzhai just because of my father's favor, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to get in."
"This Cihangzhai is a bit interesting."
Ye Fan quickly digested the information, then narrowed his eyes slightly: "I wonder what Chads is going to auction?"
Hearing Ye Fan's words, Ye Tianci's smile froze for an instant, and then he followed Ye Fan's gaze and looked ahead.
Just then, I saw Chades and Yan Minghou walking into the cabin talking and laughing.
The golden boy and beautiful girl are so high-spirited that many guests turn their attention to her.
Seeing this scene, many dignitaries showed playful smiles. They all knew about the engagement between Ye Tianci and Yan Minghou, and they knew that Ye Tianci had been cheated on.
However, they did not dare to talk to Empress Yan Ming, they just laughed at Ye Tianci for being a useless good-for-nothing.
Ye Tianci looked very ugly, but he quickly regained his composure and tried to control himself not to think about things.
He promised Ye Fan to be strong.
He also gently pulled Ye Fan and said: "Brother, please don't mess around in Cihangzhai's territory. The grudge between me and Empress Yan Ming will only last for a long time."
Ye Fan smiled: "Don't worry, I'm measured."
Confrontation does not necessarily involve being aggressive and ruthless, there are many invisible ways to kill people.
The two walked into the auction site unnoticed.
This is a large cabin, like a movie theater, with hundreds of independent booths.
In the middle is a high platform with focused lights.
Ye Fan discovered that although there was still half an hour before the auction started, almost all the guests had arrived, and the three hundred seats were full.
Although Ye Tianci received the invitation sticker, he was still not respected very much and was assigned to the far corner on the left by the staff.
Ye Tianci obviously knew his status and pulled Ye Fan to sit down without any argument.
Ye Fan leaned on his seat and did not speak. He just stared at Chades and Yan Ming in front of him, capturing their every word and action.
He also took out the exquisite brochure issued by Cihangzhai, flipped through the contents and compared Chades' expression...
"Gentlemen and ladies, Cihangzhai's annual auction has officially begun..."
Half an hour later, with an indifferent expression and an old woman in gray shouting, the auction officially kicked off.
The first auction item was an imperial green piece with a transparent color and first-class texture. It was one of the few in the world. It was bought by a West China tycoon for 300 million yuan.
The second item is a string of Buddhist relic beads, which come from an eminent monk in history and have the effect of exorcising evil spirits and calming the mind.
Dozens of well-educated men immediately bid for it, and the final price was 580 million.
The third item was a book of swordsmanship that had been lost for many years. Several mountain sect bosses almost got into a fight over it, but in the end it was taken away by Yi Ni at a sky-high price of 800 million.
Compared with other businessmen and powerful people, it is easier for Shanmen bosses to get money, and the daily incense money is terrifying.
Next, the old woman in gray took down three more treasures.
Compared to the usual bewitching emcees at auctions, the old woman in gray was completely devoid of enthusiasm, and instead had a look of impatience and indifference on her face.
People who don't know, would think that the clients in front of them owe her tens of billions of dollars that they haven't paid back yet.
Even so, no one was dissatisfied, but instead tried their best to grab what they liked.
"The seventh item, the Sword of Sun Tears..."
Soon, a small cart rolled up with a three-foot sword in a glass box.
It is simple, mottled, thick, with serrations on one side, and there are a few tears of gold on the hilt, which looks a bit like a key.
Ye Fan sat up slightly and remembered the introduction of the exquisite booklet.
Tears of the Sun, the unearthed pyramid is one of the oldest iron weapons in the world.
The sword body is made of meteorite iron. In a sense, it is not from the earth.
Its value lies in the fact that it was used by the famous Sun Pharaoh, who is said to have killed thousands of people and also killed unknown creatures.
However, after many years, the sword no longer looks sharp, and the meteorite iron is not very precious, so the sword is of little value.
The starting price is 10 million.
Many customers lost interest and waited for the auction item to pass quickly.
But Ye Fan could clearly see that Chades, who was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, was shaking violently, his eyes were filled with tears and he was staring at the sun. He was even more excited than seeing his relatives.
It’s inevitable!
Ye Fan gently poked Ye Tianci: "Say the price, shout the price immediately, shout as much as you can."
Ye Tianci, who was dozing off, trembled. Before the old woman in gray could finish the introduction, he stood up and shouted:
"One billion, I will pay one billion!"
The whole place fell into dead silence for a moment.
Yan Minghou and Chades also stopped smiling and stared at Ye Tianci angrily.
Damn it, you're calling one billion even before the reserve price is announced?
This is clearly against them.
Yan Minghou stared at Ye Tianci with cold eyes, as if she wanted to strangle Cheng Yaojin to death.
But no one accused Ye Tianci of causing trouble. After all, he was the first to raise the price, and he was not deliberately raising the price with others.
Moreover, Ye Tianci's excitement gave people the impression that he really liked Taiyang Tears, and others' increase in price actually became a favor to others.
"Ye Tianci broke the rules and raised the price before the reserve price was announced, and he was disqualified from bidding..."
At this moment, a young woman's voice came from the auction building. She was cold and ignorant of human fireworks, but there was no doubt about it:
"Tears of the Sun, 10 million, starting shooting..."
