Chapter 221 is self-defeating

Next to Zhou Zhijie this time, there were two bodyguards who were very steady and very sharp-eyed, in addition, there was a middle-aged bearded man wearing a long shirt, with very long hair, and he kept half a step behind Zhou Zhijie, and his status was much higher than those two bodyguards.

"It's kind of interesting. ”

Wang Lun's gaze withdrew at a glance, but he still paid attention to the bearded man.

The man was inconspicuous, one might even say raunchy.

But Zhou Zhijie dared to say to her face that Luo Daochang was a person who sold his reputation and reputation, but it was actually related to the bearded man.

In Zhou Zhijie's eyes, Luo Daochang should be far from being compared with the bearded man.

Wang Lun only drank a little cocktail, tasted it, and then chose a seat to sit down and wait for the auction to begin.

The auction organizers do not announce which lots will be auctioned in advance, partly to keep it secret, and partly because there are too many cases where the auction is suddenly cancelled or new lots are added suddenly.

About half an hour later, the auction officially began.

Wang Lun has already seen it once in the Phoenix Temple, and he is not surprised by the auctioneer's hot atmosphere or something, the first few lots are all shady collections, two gold, one bronze.

After the lots, there was no shortage of fine products, one of which was auctioned for a high price of nearly 30 million, Wang Lun noticed that most of the people at the scene were emotional, and many people were even crazy.

Even those who did not participate in the auction were affected by this tense and exciting atmosphere.

But the woman of the Zhou family, who was sitting in the front row, had not made any movement.

In the next half hour, six lots were auctioned one after another, three of which were related to jade, but unfortunately there was no jade box, and at this time, according to the characteristics of the auction that would only be held for half a day at most, almost half of the auction had passed.

Wang Lun was able to calm down, asked the waiter to bring a drink, drank it slowly, and watched the new lot finished.

"The next thing we're going to auction is amazing, because it's rarely seen, only twice in the last 20 years. ”

"It's a piece of jade, four or five times bigger than jade jewelry, and it has a very special shape. ”

"It always plays a unique role in the hands of some people, and the value is very special, so let's invite this lot now!"

The auctioneer drove the atmosphere of the scene and deliberately used a lot of words to describe the lot.

Many people are attracted to see what kind of jade it is, it will be so special.

The auctioneer took the lot from the hostess, removed the satin from it, and placed it on the table.

Everyone looked over and found that the lot was a jade box!

There is a projection on the big screen, which can be seen clearly, and many people stared at it carefully, and then leaned back back on the chair, lacking interest.

"It's really bigger than jade jewelry, and it has a very special shape, but what can this thing do, can anyone tell me?"

"I wonder if the person who made this jade box has a hole in his brain, spending so much jade material to make such a thing, which can not be worn on the body for people to see, and cannot be used as a work of art collection, is it used to make tea?"

"It's also possible that it was used to hold wine. ”

Among the ten people, at least seven people felt that this jade box was useless at all.

At this time, the auctioneer said: "The jade box you see is twenty centimeters long and twelve centimeters wide, with the same depth as the width, and a lid that can be covered." All the best jade materials it uses are the best jade materials, which is the identification report of the jade materials. ”

Through the big screen, everyone saw the jade test report given by the authoritative organization.

When I looked at it, I found that this jade box was really all made of the best jade!

At this point, at least eight out of ten people lost interest.

Such a good jade, used to make such a thing, no matter what you do when you buy it, it has no effect, and what is the difference between buying a cardboard box or a plastic box?

Other jade pieces, whether they are jewelry or works of art, can at least find value.

This thing is worthless, whoever buys it is stupid.

"Master Wang, this is ...... The jade box you want?"

Luo Daochang felt that he couldn't understand Wang Lun's thoughts even more.

This jade box is big, and the space inside is not small, if you can store things, it is also feasible to replace them with other things.

But he saw Wang Lun's happy expression, and he seemed to be very satisfied with this jade box.

Moreover, he also heard Wang Lun commenting on this jade box.

"This jade box is what I'm looking for, it's very good, the size is right, it's all made of the best jade, it's good. ”

Luo Daochang: "......"

What's so good about that? I really can't understand it.

Wang Lun pointed out meaningfully: "In the auction later, I'm afraid we will have to set off another round of bidding frenzy." ”

Luo Daochang naturally heard this, and secretly complained wildly.

With such a jade box, you can find countless other things to replace the same item, which is worth grabbing like crazy?

He didn't believe it.

Most people think that this jade box is worthless, and he has the same opinion, in his opinion, although this thing will not be auctioned, but it is because Wang Lun will definitely buy it.

Therefore, there is an eighty percent chance that no one will bid with Wang Lun for this jade box, and Wang Lun has a great chance that he will succeed in bidding at the starting price.

In fact, not only him, but many people are also complaining, and they are shouting directly.

"What are you doing, you will go all out to introduce this lot, but the result is that none of us are interested, and the organizer has to carry this pot. ”

"That's it, the atmosphere at the scene was both exciting and tense, and now it's like this, is it to deliberately feed us, disgusting people. ”

"It's just a formality, and I don't think anyone will bid at all. ”

"Agreed. It's not normal for someone to bid. ”

......

Everyone talked about it, and basically forgot the last words that the auctioneer said when he introduced the lot before the jade box appeared.

In the eyes of certain people, this jade box is very special and irreplaceable.

It's a pity that everyone has forgotten, so that now everyone is complaining and feeling bored.

But the auction started as usual.

After the auctioneer signaled silence, he quoted the starting price.

Fifteen million!

When everyone heard this price, before they could comment on it, they heard a loud voice coming from the northeast corner.

"Twenty million!"

The price has risen by 5 million in one fell swoop, which is too large to attract attention.

Everyone couldn't help but follow the prestige of the past, especially those close to the northeast corner area, and craned their necks to get a glimpse of the true face of the person who made the offer.

But after reading it, those people were surprised.

The person who made the offer, as he spoke, was indeed a man, and he was tall and burly, but what if he couldn't be so funny, this man wore an oversized black sunglasses, covering two-thirds of his face, leaving only his forehead, lower lip and chin!

What can be distinguished is that this person has beards on both sides of his cheeks, like the one with more vigorous hair.

Some have already started conspiracy theories.

"I said how could it be that it would increase by 5 million as soon as I opened my mouth, this increase has never appeared in so many lots before, it turned out to be a trust invited by the organizer to raise the price. ”

"The level of this price increase is too low, and the food looks ugly, can you be professional?"

"I'm convinced, I want to ask for help, then please plan it in advance, this trust will increase the price by five million at once, and I must not scare away others, this is the organizer insisting that this lot be unsold." ”

Even Luo Daochang felt that this man was trying to cover up by wearing such big black sunglasses.

Suddenly, the man seemed to be very unhappy to be talked about like this, and roared like spring thunder: "Lao Tzu is not a trust, shut up Lao Tzu!"

This shouted loudly, but immediately someone said in private: "To prove that you are not a trust, take off your sunglasses first." ”

But the man didn't mean to take off his sunglasses, and after the quotation was finished, he began to look around, waiting for others to quote.

Many people find it funny.

The invited To, who messed up the bidding, and now there are still people bidding for it.

But before the smile on everyone's faces could disappear, a beautiful but arrogant woman's voice came from the front row.

"Twenty-five million!"

As soon as this offer came out, everyone subconsciously thought that the organizer had really made enough money, and actually invited another trustee, and the price soared by five million again.

But soon someone exclaimed.

drove more people to follow the prestige past, and the next moment, many people just shut up.

Because the person who quoted was the eldest lady of the Zhou family in Jinling, Zhou Zhijie.

Jinling, is the capital city of Jiangsu, the capital of the Son of Heaven since ancient times, the status of Jinling, than Suzhou is a significant cut, and the Zhou family in Jinling belongs to a famous family, the wealth is monstrous.

In terms of wealth alone, the Zhou family can rank in the top five among the families of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Jinling!

And Zhou Zhijie before she got married, she was the dream lover of countless young talents in Jinling, she was very famous in Jinling, although her reputation weakened after marriage, but with the high-profile divorce, she returned to singleness, Zhou Zhijie, who was already a young woman, let Jinling people see that the original young woman is also so attractive.

Zhou Zhijie's coldness, charming, and mature temperament of a young woman have restored Zhou Zhijie's fame, even more so than when she was a girl!

So now that Zhou Zhijie is quoting, many people naturally recognize her.

Since it was the eldest lady of the Zhou family's offer, it was a joke to say that Zhou Zhijie was "Tuo", and in an instant, the statement about Tuo was self-defeating.

However, Zhou Zhijie's unexpected move still caused waves.

"What is the value of this jade box, I don't believe that the dignified lady of the Zhou family would be bored to buy a useless jade piece. ”

"Well, this is a clear thing, Miss Zhou is also a strong woman in the Zhou family, and her leadership is very strong, so she can't do a loss-making deal. ”

"This thing is very strange, if you want me to say, that jade box must have a special value that we can't find. ”

At this point, someone suddenly remembered what the auctioneer had said.

"Could it be that this jade box has an extremely special value in the eyes of a certain part of the people?"

Everyone didn't dare to conclude that the jade box was a waste box.
