Chapter 300: The Battle of Spirits!
Chapter 300: The Battle of Will!
Although Long Fei looks gentle and elegant on the surface, with a modest and polite smile on his face, and the image of a noble son, he feels very dangerous to Yangyi. His intuition told Yang Yi that Long Fei wasn't as friendly to him as he seemed on the surface. Although Long Feihe deliberately pretended to know Yang Yi just now, Yang Yi could see from his eyes that this Long Fei should have known him before. Yang Yi didn't know if it was his delusion or what, but subconsciously Yang Yi felt that it was better for him not to have any intersections. It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that Yang Yi doesn't want to provoke more enemies, and the identity background of this enemy doesn't seem to be ordinarily powerful.
Seeing Yang Yi looking at Long Fei's back in a daze, Sophie gently stabbed Yang Yi with her arm. Said solemnly: "This Long Fei is called the prince by some first-line sons in Kyoto, although I don't know his background very well, but his background shouldn't be bad." So we'd better not offend him tonight. โ
"You don't know his background?" asked Yang Yi with a little surprise. It stands to reason that a big star like Sophie should have a lot of intersection with them, how can she not know that person's identity and background?
Sophie shook her head slowly, looked at Long Fei who was chatting and laughing with the two old men not far away, and said, "I still know a little bit about the background of some of the people around him, but this Long Fei has never talked about his background. I only know that he has a high prestige among the younger generation in Kyoto. โ
The word crown prince reminded Yang Yi of the son of an ancient emperor. Could it be that he is the son of the one above? If a person doesn't know it, it's better to say, so many people don't know or dare not talk about it, it really shows that this handsome-looking guy's family background is very unusual. At least more than one notch above the others. If it weren't for Yang Yi feeling that this person had no kindness to him, Yang Yi would really want to hug his thighs.
Yang Yi and Sophie have been sitting on the sofa chatting, but Yang Yi's eyes have never left that Long Fei. Although that Long Fei is also a martial artist, he is only a ground-level martial artist. Such a person can't let Yang Yi take it seriously, but I don't know why, Yang Yi always feels that he is very dangerous, very dangerous. It's like a poisonous snake ready to choose someone to devour.
At nine o'clock, the auction started on time. On the stage, in charge of the auction was an old man who looked to be in his fifties, standing on the rostrum in a decent manner. Yang Yi looked around, there were more than 200 people in the entire hall, all of them dressed well, this is probably the so-called high society.
The old man asked everyone to prepare what they wanted to auction, and said that they would send it directly to the front desk when the time came. What puzzled Yang Yi was that Sophie was reluctant to take off a piece of jade pendant from her neck. When everyone sat down on the rows of chairs that had been prepared a long time ago, the old man said aloud: "Now the auction has officially begun!"
First of all, a bejeweled woman held a painting in her hand and sent it up, introducing: "This is the original work of the Qing Dynasty painter Chen Zhuo, "Yunshan Qingshan Map", which is my husband's favorite painting. Today, for the sake of those out-of-school children, my husband decisively asked me to bring this painting. โ
The painting was taken by the old man for careful identification, and then he said into the microphone: "This "Yunshan Qingshan Map" is Chen Zhuo's authentic work, and the starting price is 500,000 yuan. โ
"Five hundred and one thousand. โ
"Five hundred and fifty thousand. โ
As soon as the old man's words fell, there was already a scramble for the price below. In the end, the painting was sold by a young man who looked to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old for a million.
Watch as one item after another is sent and then auctioned for a high price. Yang Yi was secretly surprised in his heart, the things auctioned here turned out to be good things, and the price was often hundreds of thousands and millions. It's a relief to think about it, these people just want to use this opportunity to compare each other with each other to show that they are rich. It is said that it is an auction, but it is just a game played by a rich man who is richer than rich. They really don't pay much attention to these hundreds of thousands, millions.
What Long Fei took was a blue and white porcelain plate, which was identified as a thing for the royal court, and was finally auctioned away by a fat bald man at a sky-high price of 10 million. From the beginning, Yang Yi has never bid for a thing, and Long Fei turned his head from time to time and smiled at Yang Yi several times.
When it was Sophie's turn, Sophie stood up and said, "Although this jade pendant is not a valuable thing, it was left to me by my mother when she was alive." So I hope this jade pendant can bring happiness to those children. โ
The old man didn't do any appraisal this time, just nodded slightly, and said, "A Hetian jade pendant representing blessings, with a starting price of 100,000 yuan." โ
"Five hundred thousand. A young man hurriedly held up the number plate in his hand and smiled as if he were flattering Sophie.
โยทยทยทยทยทยทโ
The old men were not very interested in Sophie's jade pendant, so they hardly asked for it, but some of the young people kept screaming as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. In the end, the price has soared to 2 million, and the number of people asking for the price has gradually decreased. After all, although Sophie is famous, it is very face-saving to get a piece of jewelry close to her, but once it exceeds expectations, it is not worth fighting again.
"Five million. Suddenly, an unhurried voice sounded, and it was directly raised from two million to five million at once, which can be said to be a must-win. It was Long Fei who was holding the sign, and Long Fei didn't forget to turn his head and nod to Yang Yi very kindly after shouting the price.
Long Fei looked back at Yang Yi, although he covered it up well, but Yang Yi could still see a trace of disdain in his eyes, Yang Yi was even more sure of his thoughts, he knew himself before. And this is a formal declaration of war on yourself.
Yang Yi suddenly raised the number plate in his hand without warning, and said loudly: "Six million." "Yang Yi didn't want to fight for Sophie, but Long Fei had already declared war, and if he didn't fight again, it would be a bit cowardly, which was not Yang Yi's style. And Yang Yi also wants to try how deep Long Fei's water is, besides, pretending to be a pig doesn't have to eat a tiger, but pretending to be a pig will make the tiger relax its vigilance.
Sophie was slightly stunned, then glared at Yang Yi fiercely, and whispered: "You are crazy, that jade pendant is not worth that price at all." โ
"Didn't you see Long Fei's provocative eyes? If I didn't make a quote, wouldn't he look down on me?"
"Forget it. Sophie tugged at Layangyi's sleeve. Although he didn't know Long Fei's background, it must not be something that Yang Yi could shake, it was purely like an egg hitting a stone. But Yang Yi shook his head very stubbornly, as if he was a stunned young man who only knew how to be competitive.
Sophie was not lightly angered, and glanced at Long Fei not far away with some concern.
Long Fei was not surprised at all, as if everything was within his calculations. He turned back and smiled at Yang Yi, then raised the number plate in his hand and said loudly: "Seven million." โ
As soon as Long Fei's voice fell, it caused an uproar, although seven million was nothing to everyone present, but this jade pendant was not even worth seven hundred thousand. Spend seven million to please a female star, so it's better to spend seven million directly to support two or three. In their opinion, it is meaningless. I have to say that in fact, the richer people are, the more stingy they are, and the more they love money. Especially those profiteers. They can spend millions or even tens of millions on supporting the second and third wives, and they are not willing to give a dollar to the beggars. When they spend money, they must first consider whether it is worth it, if it is worth, then they will not care how much they spend, if it is not worth it, even if it is a dollar, they will feel distressed for a long time.
Although some young people still wanted to curry favor with Sophie, they no longer dared to bargain after Long Fei made a move. If you ask again, you will be against him. Some old people were watching with interest as two young people were jealous of a female star, with smiles in their eyes.
Yang Yi didn't care what everyone thought, he just deliberately pretended to be very entangled, hesitated for a long time before he trembled and raised the number plate in his hand and said, "Eight million." "It's a small voice that you can't hear unless you listen carefully. Everyone who watched was disdainful for a while, and they dared to fight with the prince at this level, they were really impatient.
Long Fei looked at Yang Yi and Sophie with deep meaning, held the number plate in his hand high, and chuckled: "Ten million!"
Everyone was in an uproar again, you must know that the blue and white porcelain that Long Fei took was only auctioned for 10 million, and this jade pendant could be auctioned for such a sky-high price, but the preciousness between the two is not comparable at all.
Yang Yi wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, hesitated for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "Eleven million!"
Long Fei didn't expect Yang Yi to dare to ask for a price, this 10 million was already his limit. He couldn't have spent such a big price for a woman or fighting for a breath, but seeing Yang Yi's nervous Yang Yi, Long Fei had an urge to laugh, he wanted to see if he would scare him half to death if he went a little more. So he slowly shouted out the high price of 1.2 million.
Yang Yi looked up at Long Fei with a stunned expression, then slowly stretched out the number plate in mid-air and put it down, gritted his teeth and said unconvinced: "You won." โ
Long Fei was confused by Yang Yi's move, he didn't expect it to be such an ending. But Yang Yi gave up like this, which made Long Fei a little unacceptable. He was tricked by this guy, Long Fei thought with some suspicion. But looking at Yang Yi's appearance, it doesn't look like it's pretending. Could it be that his asking price is too high? Long Fei was puzzled, and finally could only shake his head and accept his fate. Unexpectedly, he Long Fei also had a day when he was wronged.
The auctioneer almost went crazy, it was definitely the most incredible item he had ever auctioned. I thought it would be sold for 100,200,000, but I didn't expect it to sell 12 million. It's just incredible. I didn't even count it, and I just hammered it down.
Although Long Fei was reluctant in his heart, he still tried his best to squeeze out a look of indifference on his face, took off the ordinary jade pendant, and then walked to Su Fei'er's side, handed the jade pendant in his hand to Su Fei'er, and said with a smile: "Miss Su, since this jade pendant was left to you by your aunt, I think it is better to return it to its original owner." โ
Yang Yi's eyes widened and looked at Long Fei with a relaxed face, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this guy is really wealthy, 12 million actually said that he would give it away. Yang Yi felt that if he were him, he would definitely die of distress.
Sophie glanced at Long Fei gratefully, and said in a low voice, "No, this is too valuable, I can't ask for it." โ
Long Fei smiled indifferently, and very forcefully stuffed the jade pendant in his hand into Sophie's palm, and said, "This jade pendant is of little use to me, but to you, the meaning is different." After speaking, he looked up at Yang Yi next to him, and said in a low voice: "You are really good." โ
