Chapter 045 Beijing Family Auction House

In the evening, knife noodle shop.

Fu Chen happily ate the noodles in front of him.

Such a young, handsome, wealthy and unfathomable instructor.

Instead of pursuing delicacies from the mountains and seas and high-end restaurants, I actually like ordinary noodle shops and simple food that are the most common in life.

Chu Qingyue found it very interesting, but a little difficult to understand.

After thinking about it, she whispered: "Fu Chen, I had a phone call with Wang Wenbin's father this morning. He said he wanted to invite you to the family auction this Saturday. I wonder if you would like to go?"

Fu Chen ate the noodles and raised his head with interest and replied: "Well, the family auction? Qingyue, please tell me in detail what's going on."

Chu Qingyue picked out the noodles one by one and ate them carefully.

He ate the noodles very slowly, but his posture was very elegant, and he introduced it slowly.

The so-called family auctions are held by the top aristocratic families in the capital in turn.

Because it is hosted by aristocratic families and ordinary business families that have been passed down for hundreds of years.

Therefore, the auction items also include many rare materials and medicinal materials related to spiritual practice, as well as some strange objects with unknown uses.

Of course, some rare antiques and top-notch luxury goods are also indispensable.

Chu Qingyue said while eating. By the time she finished speaking, Fu Chen had already finished his noodles.

He took out a tissue and wiped his mouth, took two more sips of water, and nodded slowly: "Then I must go and have a look. It's good to gain some experience. It's better to stay for two more days and wait until the auction is over before going back."

That night, Chu Qingyue received an invitation from Wang Zhengyuan.

The invitation indicated that the auction would be held at 9 a.m. on Saturday in the banquet hall on the 18th floor of the Wangjia Zhengyuan Building.

It was also the place used by Zhengyuan Group to hold year-end gatherings for employees in previous years.

From this day on, Fu Chen no longer let Chu Qingyue take him around, but stayed at home and practiced peacefully.

On the way, I met one of Chu Qingyue's classmates. When she saw Fu Chen, she was stunned for a long time with her mouth wide open in surprise.

After coming back to her senses, she hurriedly pulled Chu Qingyue into the room to chat quietly.

***

At eight o'clock on Saturday morning, Chu Qingyue drove Fu Chen to Zhengyuan Building and was allowed to get on the elevator of the building through an invitation.

When the two of them got out of the elevator on the 18th floor, they saw two rows of reception ladies.

Wearing sexy business attire, they stood at the door of the hall and were responsible for checking each guest's invitation.

Chu Qingyue handed over the invitation and the two of them were invited into the hall.

Pushing open the door of the hall, even though it is daytime, the lights in the hall are still bright and flickering.

There were business celebrities and wealthy young ladies everywhere talking to each other with glasses of wine in their hands.

All of them were wearing gorgeous suits and gowns, as well as various colorful jewelry.

With elegant manners and numerous manners, it was clearly a grand banquet.

In comparison, the clothes of Chu Qingyue and Fu Chen can be called simple.

Qingyue explained in a low voice: "Every family auction has a banquet in the first half, and the auction starts in the second half. Let's just find a seat and wait."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a cry of "Qingyue's niece".

The two of them turned to face the direction from which the sound came, and saw Wang Zhengyuan leading his wife walking towards them.

Chu Qingyue smiled politely and greeted: "Uncle Wang, Aunt Pan, thank you for inviting us to the banquet. Is Wang Wenbin okay?"

Fu Chen clasped his fists and said lightly: "Thank you, Mr. Wang, for the invitation."

Wang Zhengyuan looked at the two of them and laughed: "Niece Qingyue is too polite, Wenbin is fine, just let him stay at home for a few days.

This must be Mr. Fu Chen, he is such a famous name that he has been respected for a long time and is like thunder in his ears.

Sir, it is a great honor for me to come to the banquet held by the Wang family. You two, please come here!"

Wang Zhengyuan led Fu Chen and the two of them to the seats on the right side of the first row in front and sat down.

After exchanging greetings for a few words, they stood up and left to receive the guests.

Fu Chen looked around boredly and unexpectedly saw Long Xiaotian and Chu Xuyang also there.

Chu Qingyue introduced him quietly from the side.

The Long family, the Chu family, the Zheng family, the Murong family, the Ye family, and many sects that Fu Chen was familiar with were among them.

At 9 o'clock sharp, the auction officially begins.

Wang Zhengyuan and his wife walked up to the center of the stage, spoke a few words to the guests in the audience, and then left the stage.

Then two professionals, a man and a woman, came on stage to preside over the auction.

There is a number plate next to each seat in the entire banquet. If necessary, you can raise the plate to bid.

The first items to be auctioned were limited edition or collector's edition luxury goods.

Fu Chen didn't know anything about gems, necklaces, luxury watches, or antiques from home and abroad. He just saw them as a spectacle.

Chu Qingyue just sighed at the sidelines, these rich people were doing extraordinary things and spending huge sums of money.

For example, Fu Chen's move of making a move worth 10 million that day was completely insignificant compared to today's rich people.

He sighed softly to Fu Chen: "Every time I attend an auction, I can't help but sigh, there are so many rich people in the capital!"

That rare cute look made Fu Chen chuckle.

"Dear distinguished guests, the auction of rare items related to cultivation will begin. The first century-old wild ginseng has a base price of 2 million, and each increase in price will not be less than 100,000. The bidding begins."

The host's voice came and Fu Chen cheered up.

Centennial wild ginseng is very effective whether it is used to make wine or to be used as medicine.

In the hands of people with superb medical skills, it is easy to replenish the vital energy of the injured and save lives at critical moments.

This thing is needed by both ordinary people and cultivators, and the price will soon exceed the minimum price by two or three times.

The second lot is a fragment of a skill that can only be practiced to the earth level.

The remaining parts are unrecognizable due to damage, but it is said that someone discovered it from an ancient tomb.

The only people who are interested in this are cultivators from some sects and aristocratic families, who use it to enrich their knowledge and reference for study.

There were already enough Kung Fu books that Fu Chen used for reference and study. There was no need to look for some scraps to expand his horizons, and he didn't put any thought into it at all.

After that, the auction items appeared one by one, including Ganoderma lucidum, wild ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum, ancient books, and ancient broken swords, all appearing one by one according to the reserve price from low to high.

"The auction item below is a piece of ore, with a base price of 10 million, and each increase in price will not be less than 1 million. The bidding begins."

Following the host's introduction, four staff members carried a rugged cylindrical strip of stone more than one meter long and wide onto the stage.

Fu Chen used his eyes to look at the ore, only to see that the form of the ore had disappeared.

There was a hazy light group in his eyes, flickering on and off in the middle, like stars, and he secretly said "star pattern iron" in his heart.

Everyone in the audience saw the ore on the stage, and not many were interested. Who would buy a piece of ore? No one quoted a price for a minute.

Fu Chen picked up the sign on the table and shouted lightly: "Eleven million."

Finally seeing someone bidding, the host breathed a sigh of relief.

Some people who knew Fu Chen saw his quotation and thought it might be an unknown treasure, so they started bidding one after another.

Chu Qingyue saw that everyone was bidding for what Fu Chen wanted, and she was secretly worried for him.

I just saw Fu Chen sitting firmly on Mount Tai, not caring about others competing for him, and it was hard to say anything.

The price soon reached 20 million. During this period, Fu Chen never bid again.

Those who originally followed Fu Chen in bidding and wanted to pick up the slack couldn't help but feel uneasy and doubtful, and then slowly stopped.

Seeing that no one continued to bid, the host started counting down.

"Twenty-two million." At this time, Fu Chen's lazy and casual voice sounded.

However, no one followed the bidding this time, and the unknown ore was finally obtained by Fu Chen.
