Chapter 265 Kill the audience
The first successful auction item was a silver necklace.

The owner who contributed this necklace is the current Queen's nephew, the Duke of Kent.

Logically speaking, silver necklaces are not a big deal, but this one is obviously different. There are eleven silver plates on it, each of which is inlaid with miniature photos of the queen, her husband and nine children.

This is a special product for the British royal family, and the price is naturally high.

The second auction item is also the British royal family. It is a special edition magazine about the royal family. The picture on the cover is hand-painted by the royal painter, and the words are made of gold powder. The original magazine looks golden and very high-grade.

As a result, over one hundred thousand pounds made this magazine the most expensive magazine in the world.

Yang Huan found out that both items were related to the British royal family, and felt a little strange.

"Why do you auction off the things of nobles? Aren't these all to be treasured?"

Charlene Lahiri obviously didn't understand this kind of thing, but Zhuang Ziqing knew a lot about it.

"Don't look at the members of the royal family and aristocrats who are all very beautiful in front of people, but in fact, many of them are poor behind the scenes."

"How to say?" Yang Huan is most interested in this kind of secret.

"It's like the Duke of Kent. This is not the first time he has auctioned these collections. He sold a chair used by King George III for [-] pounds before. Now he is relying on auctioning his ancestral collections to live."

Yang Huan listened amusedly, "Is it really that poor?"

"Who said no?" Zhuang Ziqing also found it funny, among these nobles, which one is not elegant in front of others?
Who would have imagined that behind the scenes it was such a desolate look?
"They live in the palace, and the annual rent is as high as 12 pounds. If they have no money to pay the rent, they have to auction things. If they have no money to live, they have to auction things. You think, attending such a banquet, dresses and so on, have to spend money."

Regarding this, Yang Huan had some experience and nodded.

Didn't the two beauties next to me order dresses just for the banquet?
"In the circle of the royal family and aristocrats, there is actually a lot of comparison. People who are caring will remember what clothes you wore last time. If you meet you next time, you will still wear the same clothes. I'm sorry, you will become the subject of other people's private jokes."

Damn, it turns out that aristocrats also have this kind of virtue!

Yang Huan shook his head. No matter how big the scene is, it will cost so much.

It seems that it is really not easy to support the hat of nobleman these days.

"You see, they often hold a gathering of nobles and invite some rich people to participate. In fact, it is for the auction. They say they will donate part of it for charity. How much might they give?"

Yang Huan couldn't stop nodding.

No wonder, just now, many lords came to find me through the back door, wanting to waive the membership fee of [-] pounds.

It turns out that these bastards are a bunch of poor people!
Even if you kill them, you can't let them join the membership, which will lose the style of Southampton's membership!

"However, for the rich, this is also the most advantageous shortcut to break into the core circle of the upper class, and buying this kind of auction item at a high price can be regarded as giving face to the owner, and they have become friends with each other, so everyone can get what they need."

Yang Huan saw it through.

These days, no matter where you go, you have to be rich to be an uncle!

At this time, the master of ceremonies of the auction finally revealed the third auction item.

"This is a piece of warm jade from ancient China. The longer you wear it next to your body, the warmer it will become. It is also engraved with ancient Chinese characters. It comes from the collection of the Duke of Bedouard for decades. The auction price starts at [-] pounds!"

Following the master of ceremonies' words, everyone's eyes fell on the red jade pendant on the stage which was about a little smaller than the palm.

This jade pendant looks very simple, but it is still very round, crystal clear, it is a treasure.

"Fifty thousand pounds!"

"Fifty-three thousand pounds!"

"Fifty-five thousand pounds!"

"Sixty thousand pounds!"

"Sixty-five thousand pounds!"

"Seventy thousand pounds!"

"Eighty thousand pounds!"

The auction price began to climb steadily, but the further down the line, the fewer bidders, and the longer the hesitating time.

After all, who knows the origin of such a red jade pendant?
If it weren't for the popularity of Chinese culture in recent years, few people would be interested in taking pictures.

Yang Huan looked at the jade pendant, leaned over and asked, "Ziqing, can you see what it is?"

Zhuang Ziqing shook her head, "I didn't see it."

Yang Huan clicked his tongue twice, "Looking at people's treasures for decades, it shouldn't be too bad."

After Zhuang Ziqing listened to his words, he looked at him with sneaky eyes staring at her, as if asking, is it okay to take this as a gift?

"I think it's pretty good, not shabby."

Yang Huan was delighted when he heard it, and he raised his hand and shouted loudly, "15 pounds!"

Everyone in the audience was shocked.

One or two turned their heads one after another, and they were a little dumbfounded when they saw Yang Huan who raised his right hand.

They only took 15 yuan, but you shouted [-] yuan, and you instantly killed it!
Come on, isn't this too capricious?
Zhuang Ziqing's face is full of sweat, brother, can we keep a low profile?

On the contrary, it was Charlene Lahiri who laughed straight away, getting used to Yang Huan's behavior.

The master of ceremonies scanned the crowd, "This gentleman offered 15 pounds, is there anyone who is higher than him?"

No one answered, this is already the highest price in the audience!
"I'll count to three, three...two...one...deal!"

With that hammer struck, the auction's highest so far was £15.

Immediately, someone respectfully brought the wooden box containing red warm jade to Yang Huan.

As for money, those who can walk in here are afraid that they can't afford it?
The wooden box is very finely crafted and well carved, and it seems to be an antique from China.

But as an antique layman, Yang Huan couldn't see anything unusual about it.

Not to mention him, who among the foreigners in the audience could tell?
Opening the box, there was a piece of warm jade inside, which was as bright red as blood. Put it in the palm of your hand, as if you could feel the temperature of the human body, the red color became more vivid.

"Good guy, not bad!" Yang Huan looked at it and thought he liked it.

A gift of 15 pounds, which has been handed down by the family of the British royal family for decades, can it be bad?
"It's here for you!"

Yang Huan handed it over to Zhuang Ziqing.

"Why did you send me here?"

"Isn't the gift for your grandfather the same as mine?"

What Yang Huan dislikes the most is carrying things, which is troublesome.

But to Zhuang Ziqing, these words have another meaning. Aren't we two members of a family?Who is with whom?

Now she blushed and accepted it.

The young couple here were whispering as if no one was watching, but the atmosphere in the venue became heated.

"This Chinese is really rich, 15 pounds, just like paper."

"Yeah, look at his bold appearance, he is too rich and powerful."

"I read in the newspaper that he earns millions of pounds a day, and of course he doesn't care about such a small amount of money."

"Millions of pounds? True or false?"

"Of course it's true. Don't you use an Apple phone? Go to the Apple store and look down the revenue list. The top three games are all made by him. Do you mean to make money or not?"

"Wow, that's awesome!"

"The queen plays his game, can you not be awesome?"

"No wonder, no wonder, it seems that in the future, I really have to curry favor with him!"

"That's right, people have plenty of money, and they can't spend it all!"

……

There was a lot of discussion in the venue, and everyone was amazed at Yang Huan's wealth.

But there are also people who are not convinced at all.

"This bastard has a lot of money. A red jade pendant was sold for 15 pounds. He seems to be afraid that others will not know that he is rich. He looks like a nouveau riche. It's so vulgar!"

Lord Hunter turned his head angrily and glared fiercely at Yang Huan in the back row.

He didn't forget the humiliation Yang Huan gave him just now.

He even hated him for directly making him lose face in front of so many high-class nobles!
"People are rich and willful. What can I do?"

Another nobleman sitting next to him said with a smile.

"That's right, no one of us has money, so we can only admire it from the sidelines."

"In my opinion, he is quite rich and powerful. Tonight he made it clear that he wants to show off. Why not just raise the price to suppress his arrogance." Someone suggested.

"Okay, that's a good idea!" Lord Hunter echoed.

"I also think it's good, we can't let a Chinese be so arrogant in our territory!"

"Yes, we have to suppress him and let him know how powerful we are."

"Okay, let's do it like this!" Lord Hunter turned his head and looked at Yang Huan again.

It just so happened that Yang Huan was among so many people at this time and noticed his malicious eyes.

Lord Hunter made a provocative gesture at him, as if to say, I will fight you, if you have the ability, let's make a gesture.

Yang Huan immediately nodded with a smile, and made a humiliating gesture towards him with his thumbs down, which made Lord Hunter smoke from his holes.

"What are you doing?" Charlene Lahiri noticed Yang Huan's gesture.

Yang Huan chuckled, "It's nothing, I just met a ****."

Charlene Lahiri looked in Yang Huan's direction just now, and saw Lord Hunter's provocative eyes and actions.

"He's trying to piss you off on purpose!"

Zhuang Ziqing also noticed, "Yes, don't be fooled!"

Only Yang Huan can make her agree with Charlene Lahiri.

Yang Huan chuckled, "Don't worry, I have a sense of propriety, do you want to compete with me for wealth?"

Speaking of this, Yang Huan smiled arrogantly, "Don't he know that Master Huan lacks everything except money? I just have a headache. I earn so much money every month. How can I spend it all? Just play with them!"

Zhuang Ziqing and Charlene Lahiri looked at each other without sparks this time, and both could see the worry in each other's eyes.

This guy doesn't want to mess around, does he?
Soon, another blockbuster auction item appeared on the auction stage.

A diamond brooch born in 1980, with the pattern of the English letter [VictoriaR] composed of diamonds, inlaid on gold products, looks very luxurious and aristocratic.

The price of this auction item is also the highest in the audience, starting at [-] pounds, and [-] pounds at a time.

Now the whole audience is excited.

It can be seen that the things at the auction are getting more and more interesting.

But on the other hand, it is not difficult to see that some nobles are indeed so poor that they hope to earn their living by auctioning off their ancestral property.

"The auction starts now!"

Following the order of the master of ceremonies, the people who were ready to go jumped up enthusiastically.

"One hundred thousand pounds!"

Almost at the same time, more than a dozen people shouted a low price of [-] pounds.

But amidst the hustle and bustle of voices, someone shouted out another price, which seemed very abrupt.

"Sixty million pounds!"

For a moment, the audience was deadly silent.

Everyone was stunned.

After a full two or three seconds, he turned his head around, looking for the person who made the sound.

Finally, everyone's eyes fell on the last row.

Yang Huan raised his right hand high and smiled.

Obviously, it was the £50 he called out just now.

"Wow, it's him again!"

"Too rich!"

"Yeah, £50? Isn't that ridiculous?"

"Those are broken diamonds, which are not worth such a high price. Even if they are used exclusively by the royal family, the price will be around 30 pounds at most."

"It can only be said that he is too willful!"

Everyone was discussing, but Lord Hunter was dumbfounded at this table.

£50 million.

Who can give such a high price to instantly kill the audience?
The other three immediately looked at Lord Hunter in unison. He was the most valuable person at the table.

Lord Hunter was also a little hesitant, but when he turned his head and saw Yang Huan gesticulating at him provocatively, his heart suddenly became angry, and he raised his right hand high.
