Kong Lao still has a lot of face, and those who have received his favor have raised their cards, and the price was soon shouted to 600,000, and the speed of bidding has obviously begun to slow down.

After all, for their net worth of tens of millions, or tens of billions of dollars, it is still worth spending 1.8 million to take care of Kong Lao's face and win Kong Lao's favor, but if there are more, it is really unnecessary.

"A million!"

A middle-aged man with a general's belly stood up, directly added to one million, and bowed slightly to Kong Lao, who was sitting in the VIP seat, to show respect.

Kong Lao bowed slightly, but the disappointment in his eyes flashed away, this bronze tripod was auctioned by him for five million meters of gold.

As a senior collector, if he can't figure out the origin and value of the auction items, it will make him sleepless, and he deliberately set a reserve price of one yuan this time, hoping to meet someone who knows the origin of this bronze tripod to solve his doubts.

Ding Ning Huo Ran sat up straight, his eyes staring directly at the pocket small ding, which was only more than a foot high, and his heart set off turbulent waves and inexplicable ecstasy, the alchemy furnace turned out to be the Yan Emperor's Yanlong alchemy furnace.

There are pictures and texts in the compendium of plants and trees, and the Yan Emperor, who was born with a talent for fire control, once took the essence of bronze to build a furnace embryo in order to compete with Chi You, and used the stone of Buzhou Mountain as the furnace to extract his own blood to turn into the Yanlong Danhuo, and after nine hundred and eighty-one days of heavenly thunder quenching on the top of the Thunder Mountain Range, the Yanlong Alchemy Furnace was the best alchemy furnace of the Shennong tribe except for the Nine Dragons Shennong Ding, although it has not yet reached the level of the artifact, but it is also the level of the best spiritual weapon.

Unexpectedly, the Yanlong Alchemy Furnace, which had long been extinguished in history, would appear at a charity auction of such a scale.

It's no wonder that so many treasure connoisseurs can't recognize the origin of this alchemy furnace, after all, this alchemy furnace requires spiritual power to be able to drive.

And spiritual power can only be possessed after entering the Heavenly Martial Realm and continuously purifying and transforming the true qi in the body, so it is not surprising that those treasure appreciation experts can't recognize the origin of the alchemy furnace.

Even if a million people want to get this alchemy furnace, it's a dream, even if he goes bankrupt, he must get this alchemy furnace, with this alchemy furnace, he can start trying to refine the pill.

Ding Ning secretly sneered, this Yanlong Alchemy Furnace

"One million once, one million twice, there is no more price increase, if no one increases the price again, this bronze tripod belongs to this gentleman, one million third ......"

"Ten million!"

Just as Jiang Yimeng was about to drop the hammer, a cold voice suddenly sounded, quoting a high price of 10 million, which made everyone in an uproar, and they all turned their heads and ears to look for the traces of the bidder.

Ding Ning followed the prestige, this is a man sitting in an inconspicuous position in the middle, wearing a peaked cap, a mask, sunglasses, unable to see clearly, and wearing a black tuxedo, his eyes couldn't help but squint slightly, it seems that he has met someone who knows the goods.

Kong Lao's expression was happy, this person was willing to call out such a price, although it was still far from the price he auctioned, but this person was very likely to know the origin of this bronze tripod.

"Ten million once, this gentleman bid 10 million, does anyone else bid? 10 million twice, 10 million 30 ......"

Jiang Yimeng was excited, she didn't expect that such an inconspicuous bronze tripod would be able to fetch a high price of 10 million, although she continued to tempt people to increase the price with a demagogic voice according to the convention, but she didn't think that anyone would pay a higher price, and even the speed of shouting was faster.

"100 million!"

Ding Ning was taken aback, is there such a price as this girl? I wanted to wait and see for a while, but I didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and opened my mouth to shout out the price of 100 million.

"What? Are you crazy?"

Ding Zhilie was startled, and hurriedly tugged at his sleeve, "What are you doing at such a high price." ”

"Sister, don't care, this tripod is very important to me, I have to get it. ”

Ding Ning didn't have time to explain, and after saying something undoubtedly, he stared at the alchemy furnace with his eyes hooked, his eyes full of perseverance.

He expected that this Yanlong Alchemy Furnace might not be so easy to obtain, and the person who had shouted for 10 million before was staring at him with eyes like knives, bringing him great oppressive power.

That's a master, a very powerful master, at least a Heavenly Martial Realm or a grandmaster-level powerhouse, no wonder he can recognize the value of this Dan furnace.

"100 million?"

Jiang Yimeng was so frightened that he almost threw the auction hammer, and a rusty broken Ding Ning actually shouted out a price of 100 million, which was too loser.

On the contrary, Bai Qing showed a thoughtful expression, Ding Ning's identity seemed to be no problem, but the mystery he showed during this time proved that he was by no means as simple as the information on the surface seemed.

He was able to shout out a high price of 100 million, proving that he was bound to get this bronze tripod, and he must have recognized its origin and knew its value.

Looking at Kong Lao with an undetectable gaze, only he knew that in addition to being a well-known overseas Chinese, philanthropist and collector, Kong Lao was also one of the members of the Shenzhou Chamber of Commerce, and his mission was to collect national treasures lost abroad for the country during the war overseas.

Kong Lao looked at him for a while, the meaning of which is complicated and difficult to understand, this Ding Ning must know the origin of the bronze tripod, which makes them hesitate, if this bronze tripod is really a national treasure, the country must take it back, and it will never be allowed to be left outside, which will conflict with Ding Ning, but they prefer that the bronze tripod will be photographed by the tuxedo man, so that they will not have any psychological burden to seize the treasure.

"Two hundred million!"

The tuxedo man was really not to be outdone, and directly shouted out the price of 200 million, and glanced at Ding Ning threateningly.

"Three hundred million!"

Ding Ning didn't care at all, not to mention that he still had more than a billion yuan of confidence, even if he couldn't bid for this person, he would not hesitate to block the way and grab the treasure.

"Four hundred million!"

The tuxedo also seems to be full of confidence, and it looks like it is bound to win.

"Five hundred million!"

"Six hundred million!"

"Seven hundred million!"

"Eight hundred million!"

"Billion!"

When Ding Ning calmly shouted out a billion directly, the tuxedo man seemed to have reached his limit and no longer shouted the price.

glanced at Ding Ning lightly, the cold killing intent under the sunglasses was undisguised, and then he withdrew his gaze, as if he had nothing to do.

The whole auction hall roared, boiling like a frying pot, one billion, a broken ding who didn't know the origin and didn't know the purpose actually sold for a sky-high price of one billion.

You must know that such a charity auction is just a show of love, and it is a minority to be able to auction tens of millions of dollars over the years, let alone a sky-high price of one billion.

The eyes that people looked at Ding Ning changed again, they only thought that he was a child of a big family with an extraordinary background and a deep background, but at this moment, they don't think so, the person who can spend a billion dollars is by no means an ordinary child of a big family, at least the direct heir of a big family can arbitrarily dispose of this astronomical amount.

It's not that these people present will never be able to come up with a billion, let alone a billion, even if they are worth tens of billions or even hundreds of billions, there are many people.

It's just that net worth is net worth, cash is cash, and in the mall, market value is one thing, and liquidity is another.

Don't look at many billionaires who claim to be worth tens of billions of dollars and live a life of poverty and luxury, but in fact, a large number of real estate, rising stock prices after listing, huge bank loans, arrears, etc., after careful liquidation, they may even have negative assets, let alone take out a billion in cash.

The reason why they are still able to live in villas, drive well, drink red wine, wear famous brands, and go in and out of high-end places to live an upper-class life is because they have an industry that continues to increase in value and absorb shareholders to continuously raise funds.

Although it sounds incredible, this is the reality, except for some businessmen, most of the rich people started by buying and selling short to make a profit.

This is an inevitable product of the bubble economy, and they are actually taking the money of shareholders and banks to engage in business activities, so as to live a life of superiority.

And as long as the company's stock price does not collapse, they can live like this forever in abundance.

This is also the reason why once the stock market crashes, many tycoons will immediately become insolvent and commit suicide by jumping off buildings after bankruptcy.

Rich people talk to each other about business information, and sometimes an inadvertent information may be a huge business opportunity, so rich people will be keen to participate in a variety of high-end cocktail parties to broaden their contacts and obtain some useful business information.

Do you expect a rich man to talk to people at the bottom of society who can't even eat about the price of Chinese cabbage today?

This has also led to the artificial division of society into three, six, nine and so on, and although wealth is not the only measure of class, it is undoubtedly the most realistic watershed.

Therefore, whether in China or elsewhere, the concept of being the right person will always be the eternal theme among the aristocracy and wealthy families.

In the final analysis, in this era of laughing at poverty and not prostitution, luxury goods such as famous cars, luxury houses, famous brands, and famous watches have become symbols of identity, status and financial resources of the rich, so as to enter the upper class society and capture more wealth and opportunities from it.

It cannot be said that this is a social regression and a moral degradation, but from the day of the emergence of private ownership, this hierarchy has become an inevitable trend of social development, a driving force that stimulates social progress, and is also one of the criteria for judging whether a person is successful in this life.

Some people may complain about the heavens, think that this is unfair, extremely hateful of the rich, think that why people are born rich second generation officials, second generation stars and the like, all their lives without worry, eat and drink spicy food, but I have to go to eat and drink for three meals a day, and I can't even pay the rent.

In fact, it's really not necessary, after all, whether it's the rich second generation or the official second generation, where do these rich and healthy second generations come from without the struggle of one generation, think about how the ancestors of others struggled, and your heart will be balanced.

If everyone is born equal, it is unfair, just like a person who works hard to realize his dreams and a salted fish who has nothing to do all day and sleeps all day long, starting on the same starting line, and finally running to the finish line only to find that his offspring is on the same starting line as the descendants of the salted fish, then how fair is it for these people who have worked hard all their lives?

The topic is a bit far away, cough cough, in short, the people present at the moment are staring at Ding Ning with hot eyes, guessing which direct son of a wealthy family is this, who can take out a billion cash casually, and it seems that they still have spare energy, hesitating how to get close to him.
