Unlike the tense atmosphere of the auction, Liu Qing's family seemed a little relaxed. They couldn't afford it anyway, so they just came to join in the fun.
In particular, the final cultural relic and ancient painting was an extinct painting by the painting saint Wu Daozi. It was sold for a sky-high price of 1.3 billion and was bought by a foreign collector.
Just when everyone thought it was over and was about to leave - "Please be patient, we have one last auction item."
"This last lot was commissioned by Xia Dehai, the president of the Zijin Chamber of Commerce. The price is not very high. It should be used to add something new to everyone. Moreover, all the price of this lot will be donated to
Charity."
"Please take a look..." The old man lifted the last red cloth.
Inside the glass counter, a fist-sized stone lay quietly in the box.
This stone is dark red all over, and it flashes golden light from time to time, exuding an aura that makes everyone present feel depressed.
This is a person who is sealed by a glass counter, and the lingering aura emanating from it can make people feel oppressive. If you come into contact with it in person, the pressure becomes even stronger.
"What is this?"
"Ruby?
It doesn’t look like it, could it be chicken blood stone?”
"Look, this stone will flash by itself, sometimes with golden light, sometimes with rich blood."
"What on earth is this..." Many people discussed it.
"Haha, to be honest, even the Zijin Chamber of Commerce doesn't know what this thing is. President Xia got it accidentally. It's just a piece of stone. It can't be cut even with a laser."
"After President Xia got it, he visited many scientific research institutes and asked countless experts and scholars to study it. In the end, it was certain that this thing did not come from the earth. It might have fallen from an extraterrestrial meteorite."
"Its density is harder than diamond. Anyway, at this stage, there is no technology that can break it down and cut it.
The old man spoke loudly.
Extraterrestrial meteorite! Harder and rarer than diamond! As soon as these words came out, the breathing of the whole audience suddenly became heavier.
The old man smiled and said: "Everyone, meteorites from outer space have been rare to see for hundreds of years. They are rare in the world, or even the only one in the world. But because they cannot be cut and polished into shape, the price is not high." "The starting price is 20 million!"
As soon as the words were spoken, someone raised a placard behind him to bid.
Zhou Wenqing held up the sign calmly and said with a smile: "My Zhou family wants this extraterrestrial meteorite for 22 million."
The old man smiled and said: "Okay, Mr. Zhou bids 22 million, is there anyone else..." "Twenty-three million."
"Twenty-three and a half million..." There was a sporadic bidding sound in the venue.
Obviously, even if it is meteorite, because it is indivisible, not many people are willing to bid. After all, it would cost tens of millions to buy a piece of stone and take it back, unless someone is stupid and has too much money.
"Twenty-five million."
Zhou Wenqing bid again.
At this time, there were not many people bidding. Fujiwara Okai next to him was full of excitement, and he was even more disdainful towards China. No one bought this unique treasure. It seemed that his master had the foresight.
The reason why he came to China this time was because of this meteorite.
Moreover, it was specifically requested by Yamamoto Misaki Taro, the current sect leader of Beichen Itto Ryu, known as the "Japanese Sword Master".
"Okay, Mr. Zhou, the Chu family has twenty-five million, is there anyone who offers a higher price?"
The old man looked around the audience with a smile. No one was bidding anymore.
Chen Zhigang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The world of rich people is really beyond our imagination. Just buying this thing for tens of millions..." He hadn't finished his words yet.
Tang Ming, who was sitting next to him, suddenly stood up and said loudly: "I will pay 30 million."
Wow! Just as the auction was about to end, someone suddenly raised the bid to 30 million, shocking the entire audience.
Even Chen Zhigang, Liu Qing and Chen Siqi were dumbfounded.
They didn't expect that the last bidder turned out to be... Tang Ming! The old man on the stage coughed a few times and looked over: "Ahem, little friend, are you really bidding 30 million?
May I ask if you are bidding, or are you bidding on behalf of the elder next to you?"
"I paid for it myself, 30 million."
Tang Ming spoke calmly.
"Humph, you think this is playing house. This is an auction, and you are not just shouting casually."
Zhou Wenqing snorted coldly and raised his hand towards the old auctioneer: "Old sir, this person's random bidding interferes with the order of the auction, does the Zijin Chamber of Commerce not care about it?"
Hearing this, the old man looked at Tang Ming with a somewhat unkind look.
"Xiao Ming...even if your father leaves you enough money, you can't spend it like this."
Liu Qing pulled Tang Ming's sleeve with an anxious look on her face, and Chen Zhigang was also frightened.
Just ask for 30 million.
This is too scary.
"Aunt Liu, this thing is very important to me. Don't worry, I am sensible."
Tang Ming smiled calmly, and then took out a gold card from his pocket, his hand trembling slightly.
Whoa! The golden light flashes.
The golden card flew dozens of meters directly and plunged into the wooden pillar on the high platform with a bang. The strength of this hand made everyone present feel frightened.
"Um?
This is...the Supreme Golden Dragon Card of the Wei family."
The old man recognized the bank card and looked at Tang Ming with a different look: "Mr. Is he from the Wei family?"
"no."
Tang Ming shook his head: "I just want to prove that I am fully capable of competing for the auction."
"indeed."
The old man nodded and continued: "This young gentleman bids 30 million, will Mr. Zhou continue to follow up?"
"I will pay 32 million."
Zhou Wenqing said with a gloomy expression.
Tang Ming said calmly: "Thirty-five million."
"Thirty-six million."
"Thirty-eight million."
"Forty million!"
"Forty-two million..." Every time the price increased, Tang Ming always paid two million more than the Zhou family.
He is also bound to get the meteorite from the sky! "The Blood Spirit Gold Crystal, I never thought that there are Blood Spirit Gold Crystals in the earthly world."
Tang Ming's eyes sparkled.
Blood Spirit Gold Crystal is the best material for cultivators to refine flying swords. It is hard on the outside and soft on the inside. It contains natural blood evil energy. The flying swords refined with it have the most astonishing lethality.
Even in the world of cultivation, this material is top-notch.
"The outer shell of the Blood Spirit Gold Crystal is hard. Only when you reach the foundation building stage and soften it with your own hard work can you gain a connection between your mind and your heart. The flying sword refined with it will also become more handy."
Thinking of this, Tang Ming spoke again: "Fifty million!"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he directly jumped four million from Zhou Wenqing's price.
The whole audience was shocked.
"Boy, even if that old man Wei Honglin comes in person today, I will still order this thing."
Zhou Wenqing laughed ferociously: "If you have the ability, continue to compete with us for financial resources. Even the Wei family can't compare to my Zhou family!"
"I'll pay 55 million!"
He was also determined to buy it. This was an excellent opportunity to join the Yingzhou Beichen Yidao style, so he would not let it go.
Tang Ming frowned slightly. He didn't have much money left on him. When he was about to call Wei Honglin to send money, a crisp and sweet voice suddenly came from the door.
"Uncle Fu, I have informed my father that this extraterrestrial meteorite will no longer be auctioned."
