The auction is held at the Jia's Pearl Auction House, the largest auction house in Jinling. It holds four small auctions and one large auction every month. Today happens to be the end of the month. It is a large auction once a month. Not only is Jinling
Rich and wealthy people from surrounding counties and cities also came to participate in the auction.
The items auctioned at the auction are all different, including jades, orbs, precious paintings, thousand-year-old ginseng, etc., and the variety is very diverse. The background of Jia's Auction House is also very strong. No one dares to cause trouble at the auction. Every year, from the auction
Everything that goes out costs tens of billions. Even if we charge handling fees, Jia's income is nearly 100 million a year.
Jin Hu took out the invitation and showed it to the security personnel for inspection. He turned around and looked at Zhuo Bufan and said respectfully: "Mr. Zhuo, God has already reserved a box inside."
Zhuo Bufan nodded at him and followed her in. The people who came to the auction today were all distinguished people. The men were well-dressed and the women were dressed in jewelry. No one wanted to compete with anyone else. Only the sportswear he wore looked ordinary.
, it’s very dazzling when you walk inside.
A pair of dark eyes suddenly noticed him and shouted in surprise: "Zhuo Bufan, why are you here?"
"Miss Long?" Zhuo Bufan was also puzzled, but he didn't expect to meet Long Geyue at the auction site.
I saw Long Geyue wearing a moon-white chiffon dress, with green earrings hanging from her crystal earlobes. Her hair was parted in the middle, and the ends of her hair were curled into waves. She looked mature, dignified, and charming, even Zhuo Bufan liked it.
I was startled and looked at it a few more times.
Long Geyue was a little happy in her heart, but she said angrily: "Haven't you seen enough?"
Zhuo Bufan had no choice but to smile bitterly. This girl had a carefree personality. Others knew that he was a martial arts master and treated him with respect, but Long Geyue still had the same attitude as before when she saw him.
"Come to the auction with me?" Long Geyue said, grabbing Zhuo Bufan's arm and walking inside, leaving Jin Hu aside.
Zhuo Bufan felt helpless at the corner of his mouth and could only nod his head to Jin Hu. Jin Hu showed an "I understand" expression and returned to the box. Chu Tian frowned and said, "I asked you to invite Mr. Zhuo, why are you the only one who came back?"
Jin Hu smiled bitterly and said: "God, Mr. Zhuo met the beauty downstairs and asked me to come back by myself."
"Yes, although Mr. Zhuo has great supernatural powers and is almost like a god, he is still a young and energetic young man after all, haha." Chu Tian said with a smile.
"Why did you come to the auction?" Zhuo Bufan looked at her and asked.
Long Geyue originally only prepared a ticket for the first row of seats, but as the eldest daughter of the Long family, she went to the auction manager and got another ticket to sit with Zhuo Bufan.
Long Geyue held up her chin and rolled her eyes at him, "Huh, it's not just for you. If you tell me what medicinal materials you want, grandpa will let me come to the auction to take a look."
When Zhuo Bufan heard her words, he smiled lightly and said nothing.
Soon, the auction began.
In addition to the ordinary seats on the first floor, the auction also has private rooms on the second floor that are only available to Jia's members. What is a member? As long as you auction something worth more than ten million in Jia's, you can get a VIP card.
On the central stage, an old man in a robe walked up. He was the auctioneer of the auction and asked the etiquette lady to get the box. "Welcome everyone to participate in the large-scale auction of Jia's Auction House at the end of the month. The first item is an antique."
The vase, with exquisite carvings and exquisite workmanship, was produced in an official kiln during the Qing Dynasty and is priced at a low price of one million."
After saying a few words, he aroused everyone's enthusiasm. Several bosses who liked antiques fought over it, and the final transaction price was three million, which far exceeded the value of the vase itself.
Next came jade, jade, and jewelry, all vulgar items. Naturally, Zhuo Bufan was not interested. When it came to the fourth item, he suddenly took a deep breath and felt a strong medicinal fragrance.
"This is a century-old ginseng from Changbai Mountain. Everyone knows that ginseng is a good medicine for prolonging life and curing diseases. Be prepared for any trouble. The starting price is 1.5 million." The auctioneer said loudly.
Sure enough, people started to bid for the price in an instant, and the price reached three million in three times. What these rich people lack most is not money. Although the medicinal materials are usually of little use, they can save lives in critical moments. Basically, they are always available at home.
, besides, century-old ginseng from Changbai years is rare to find in ten years. How much higher is its value than those antiques and jewelry.
"Three and a half million!"
"four million!"
The shouting of bids was endless, and the auctioneer's face almost broke out with laughter. Suddenly, he heard a bright and sweet voice shouting: "Six million."
Zhuo Bufan looked at Long Geyue beside him. It was she who called out this voice. Six million was already more than double the value of the medicinal material itself. Many bosses who were interested in competing for ginseng hesitated. The price had one aspect.
The reason, more importantly, is that Long Geyue is the daughter of the Long family, and no one wants to offend her.
After asking no one to bid, the auctioneer made a final decision: "This 100-year-old ginseng from Changbai Mountain belongs to Miss Long."
Long Geyue looked at Zhuo Bufan with a smile and said, "This is for you."
"Thank you." Zhuo Bufan smiled.
Among the seats on the first floor, a cold gaze suddenly looked at Zhuo Bufan, with a look of surprise on his face, "Why is he here?"
The owner of that cold gaze looks like a cold snow lotus. He exudes a temperament that never melts in the Himalayas. He has willow eyebrows and starry eyes, and is extremely beautiful with light makeup. He is Chen Qingai.
There was another man sitting next to him, naturally it was Wang Ziping. Because of Long Geyue's bidding, both of them saw Zhuo Bufan.
"Sure enough, he is just a pretty boy who is just a fool." Wang Ziping narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly.
Chen Qingai felt an unspeakable feeling in her heart. The people she once knew the most were now strangers, as if they were no longer acquaintances. It was embarrassing and emotional. She sighed and looked back at the auction table.
above.
The century-old ginseng in Changbai Mountain is indeed very important to him. Maybe other people think that if there is no century-old ginseng, then buy two fifty-year-old ginseng. But Zhuo Bufan wants to refine the elixir. If the age of the medicinal materials is not enough
, even if more fifty-year-old ginseng is added, the expected effect cannot be achieved.
Long Geyue curled her lips. This guy was obviously not very old, but he pretended to be older than his grandfather. It was really boring.
When the final items came out for auction, the auctioneer showed a solemn look on his face, "Various guests, today our Jia's Auction House will have a historic moment, we will auction the consecrated magic weapon."
"Magical weapon? What is it?"
"Needless to say, isn't it just consecrated by the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple and the presiding master of the temple?"
"That's really the case. What's so surprising about that?" (To be continued)
