Chapter 297 Competition

The first treasure placed in front of the rostrum has not yet been unveiled, but it has already attracted the attention of everyone present.

In fact, the auction being held now is the top priority of this upper-class banquet, and it is also the reason why so many children from the capital's aristocratic families have arrived.

Once this person reaches a certain level of wealth, his enjoyment mentality will often change.

The usual so-called fine clothes and fine food could no longer satisfy the interests of these people. They gradually began to improve their taste and literacy, and began to develop a hobby in the study of handed down treasures such as antique jade.

Indeed, it can be said that treasures passed down from generation to generation are all rare crystallizations of human art and culture. Not to mention priceless, many of them are unique and highly valuable for collection.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many heavyweights appearing frequently today.

Amid everyone's expectations, the red hijab on the first heirloom treasure was uncovered by the beautiful woman with a smile, and soon a carving object that was crystal clear under the light and exuded the luster of jade appeared in everyone's eyes.

"Ancient jade carving, the picture of Laozi entering the pass and coming from the east with purple energy! This is the jade carving of the essence of Taoist culture that Gu Guan, the first carver of the Song Dynasty in the Chinese Dynasty, spent ten years carving thousands of years ago. It is priceless!"

The host made an exciting introduction and then said, "Purple air comes from the east, which means auspiciousness is coming. It is the jade carving that everyone dreams of for the house. With this jade carving, it is guaranteed that the family will be prosperous and the future will be prosperous!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there were bursts of applause from the audience. Many people began to gear up and were very interested in this treasure.

"This jade carving from the East is worth a lot of money, not to mention the skill of the master carver. It is completely worthy of being a treasure handed down from generation to generation! According to expert appraisal, the starting price of this treasure is 13 million.

, friends who are interested can come to the stage to read it, and the auction will take place in ten minutes!”

The host's words aroused the interest of many people. About 20 guests came to the podium and took a close look at the purple jade sculpture covered by a thick glass box.

"Don't you go up and take a look?

Such good things are rarely seen."

After many guests came on stage, Milan, who was sitting next to Chu Nan, came over and said, "Let's just go and see the world, okay?"

Chu Nan glanced at her, smiled and nodded.

Yes, even if you can't afford it, it's good to go up there and experience it. At least it will open your eyes.

So, he stood up, grabbed Milan's little hand, and took her to the rostrum.

At this time, there was already a long queue in front of the jade carving on the rostrum. After all, the security of such a precious treasure cannot be relaxed. At most, only two people can enjoy it at the same time to prevent criminals from stealing it.

Although everyone here is a high-class person, and it is almost impossible to steal in front of everyone and security personnel everywhere, but it is always right to be cautious.

It was finally Chu Nan's turn, but unexpectedly, a mocking laugh came from not far away.

He looked up and found Yu Tao and Su Weixiang standing not far away. It was these two people who made the strange noise.

"I really didn't expect that the old hen turned into a duck, and you suddenly transformed into a little loser. Not only did you sneak into this upper class circle, but you also had the nerve to go on stage to visit the heirloom treasure?"

Su Weixiang smiled obviously sarcastically, "You alone can afford to buy this jade carving?

Haha, you really take yourself too seriously, don’t you?”

Chu Nan was already used to Su Weixiang's insults. He replied with a smile, "You're right. I'm a loser. I can't afford it and can only watch. How about you, Mr. Su? You have the capital and ability. It looks like this jade sculpture."

Are you determined to win?

At that moment I wanted to see what kind of high price you could offer for the auction?"

"You..." Su Weixiang's face changed as soon as he heard this, and his face turned red with embarrassment.

Indeed, Su Weixiang mocked Chu Nan for being a loser and a country bumpkin who had no shame in joining the upper class parties, but he forgot that he was just laughing at the fifty steps and the hundred steps.

Chu Nan has no money or ability, so is Su Weixiang much better off?

Not to mention how long the Xiaguo Group, which is on the verge of collapse and relies on selling shares to survive, can persist. How can he, the general manager of a branch, have the money to buy this heirloom that can easily cost tens of millions?

"Weixiang, let's not get along with this kind of person."

Yu Tao, who was standing next to him, helped, staring coldly at Chu Nan and saying, "Chun Nan, don't be complacent. The days are long and the grudges between us will be settled sooner or later!"

Chu Nan glanced at Yu Tao and smiled without making a sound.

For some reason, in his eyes, Yu Tao and Su Weixiang, who were once very fearful, have gradually lost their weight.

Perhaps, as people's horizons have broadened and they have seen more of the world, the tigers of the past have gradually lost their claws.

Now he and Wei Jingchen, a wealthy young man in the capital, are brothers. They are involved in the grievances and grievances of the wealthy families in the capital, as well as the mysterious Rakshasa organization. They are constantly fighting and killing each other. Are they the only ones?

Although I am still vigilant, I am afraid it is not enough.

Ignoring the two clowns, Chu Nan came to the Zi Qidong Lai jade sculpture covered by thick bulletproof glass and admired it up close.

This jade carving not only makes the image of Lao Tzu riding a green ox and riding purple auspicious clouds coming from the east when he entered the pass lifelike, vivid and lively, it also gives this large piece of jade a new life, completely transforming it from a precious stone.

It has become a work of art. If it is authentic, it is indeed worth the starting price.

After twenty or thirty guests came on stage to appreciate it, the auction officially began.

As soon as the starting price came out and the host knocked the bidding gavel, the scene suddenly became lively. There were endless people competing with each other, and the price continued to rise rapidly! "Fifteen million! Ah, sixteen million..."

" "What, the gentleman at table 13 actually offered 20 million!"

"Twenty-one million...twenty-three million...twenty-five million!"

The price of this jade carving is constantly rising and skyrocketing.

Chu Nan, who returned to his seat, observed silently and found that at this price, the only real competition was the children of the wealthy families in the capital. It seemed that they had put in a lot of effort for this auction.

I just don’t know what kind of treasure Wei Jingchen would like?

And Han Yuxi, who had a good background, didn't look like he was just coming to watch the show.

But these have nothing to do with Chu Nan, for no reason, because he has no money, he is poor... Buying this kind of heirloom treasure with a price tag of tens of millions, unless the money is burning, otherwise it will be a short-term gain

It's obviously not worth it.

In the end, the Zi Qidong Lai jade carving was purchased for 28 million. The buyer was a young master from a family in the capital. When Chu Nan saw Wei Jingchen, he waved to the guy to express his congratulations.

This is the first auction item, and it has caused so many people to rush to buy it. This shows how attractive heirloom treasures are to the upper class. Although these treasures may even be mixed with fakes, it still cannot stop people's interest.

.

Soon, the second heirloom treasure was pressed by the etiquette lady and appeared on the slowly rising cloud platform! Under the eyes of everyone’s expectations, the host opened the red hijab, revealing a piece of black inside with a complex structure.

Token! "The Qiankun Ghost Token, the most complex token in ancient techniques, is all made of fine ebony. Seeing the order is like seeing a person. It is said that it was made by the ancient Mohist family. Legend has it that it is not only a token, but also has other tokens.

Special function, but no one has been able to crack it so far.

This token is extremely rare and rare in the world. Its ebony material alone is enough to reflect its value. It has high collection significance. The starting price is five million!"

After the host introduced this heirloom treasure, Chu Nan couldn't help but stand up. He was inexplicably shocked and ecstatic at the same time!
