City: Start from participating in the Appreciation Program

Chapter 122 Auction

Although Luo Fan paid a favor this time, being able to take the opportunity to participate in the auction is also a surprise to Luo Fan. Even if he wants to participate in the auction now, he has no way.

Auctions are different from dark markets and small vendors outside. Generally, the items in auctions are more formal, and thunderstorms rarely occur.

However, even so, you have to be careful when participating in the auction, because in this case, the first explosion is a big explosion.

The auction is just three days away, and Luo Fan can be regarded as just in time for the auction. If it is later, he will not be able to catch up with this auction, so he can only return favors in other ways.

Wu Junxing had already told Luo Fan in advance that an expert would come with him later, I hope he doesn't mind.

Although I don't know what Wu Junxing's purpose is, but Luo Fan doesn't care at all. The more powerful experts he invites, the better. Wouldn't it be better if he can repay the favor without making a move?
This time, it's not that the more effort you make, the more money you make. Luo Fan would not do such a thankless thing.

Soon, three days later, Luo Fan arrived at the agreed place on time.

Not long after, Wu Jun in a suit and leather shoes walked over, accompanied by an old acquaintance of Luo Fan.

The old acquaintance hadn't discovered Luo Fan's identity at first, and only when Wu Junxing introduced each other did he discover the identity of the young man in front of him.

Isn't this the evil star Luo Fan?
Thinking of the previous bet, the eyes of the old acquaintance began to dodge, and he could only hope that Luo Fan didn't seem to recognize him, so that he could get away with it?
That's right, this old acquaintance is none other than Zhou Xinnuo, one of the three experts that Luo Fan met in the Yixi Dingzhen program group.

At the beginning of the bet, it was agreed that the three of them would not only never be able to participate in the Yixi Dingzhen show again, but they would also stay away after seeing Luo Fan.

The fact that the three of them didn't beat Luo Fan last time made him very uncomfortable. This time he finally got a job. He didn't want to quit because of this kind of thing. Wu Junxing's price was not low.

Luo Fan looked at Zhou Xinnuo who was pretending not to see him like an ostrich, showed his big white teeth, and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhou Xinnuo?"

"Why don't you change your name, Mr. Zhou, it's better to change it to Zhou Breaking Your Promise, after all, your behavior doesn't keep your promise at all."

After hearing Luo Fan's words, Wu Junxing asked in surprise, "Brother Luo Fan, do you know Master Zhou Xinnuo?"

Luo Fan smiled and said, "Of course I know Mr. Zhou, but it's not certain whether Mr. Zhou recognizes me or not."

What Luo Fan said was implying that Zhou Xinnuo pretended not to know him and planned to escape the original bet.

Just when Wu Junxing was still wondering what kind of charades this Luo Fan was playing, Zhou Xinnuo finally couldn't sit still and said:
"It turned out to be Luo Fan. You have gained weight recently, but I didn't recognize it."

"Boss Wu, since Luo Fan is helping you, it seems that there is no need for me to stay any longer. I will not accompany you to the auction this time."

Although Zhou Xinnuo really wanted to stay, Luo Fan's words were all about this point. As long as he still planned to gain some face, it would be impossible for him to stay so shamelessly.

And this Luo Fan is not someone to mess with, he absolutely believes that if he intends to get away with it, this Luo Fan will dare to expose himself on the Internet.

Wu Junxing said curiously: "Master Zhou, is there some misunderstanding? Why did you suddenly quit?"

Although Wu Junxing knew that this matter must have something to do with Luo Fan, but now that the auction was about to start, all he could think about was how to retain the master Zhou Xinnuo.

But even if Wu Junxing asked, Zhou Xinnuo would definitely not blow himself up about this kind of scandal, he just said with certainty: "Boss Wu, this time it's my fault, but I really have a reason to leave."

Looking at Zhou Xinnuo who seemed not to want to be with Luo Fan, Wu Junxing thought that Luo Fan had offended Zhou Xinnuo, which caused him not to stay with Luo Fan.

Wu Junxing immediately came up with an idea, it would be fine if he drove away Luo Fan, and believed that he would be able to keep Master Zhou in this way.

Wu Junxing immediately said to Luo Fan with an apologetic expression: "Brother Luo Fan, why don't you go back first this time? Although I don't know what quarrel you have with Master Zhou, but I must keep Master Zhou."

"Of course, since all of you are here, I changed my mind temporarily and asked you to go back. I will count you as paying back this favor."

Wu Junxing's one-stop operation can't be done directly by Luo Fan, and you have to be the one who buys the plant and returns the pearl. You can do this kind of thing?

Zhou Xinnuo didn't expect things to turn around, and his face became joyful, thinking, Luo Fan, so what if you are good, people don't recognize you, after all, my reputation as an expert is good.

Since people don't want me, Luo Fan won't brag about asking to stay any longer, and said flatly, "Okay, since Boss Wu doesn't need me, then I, Luo Fan, won't be with you."

"Just take Mr. Zhou to the auction. I believe Mr. Zhou will give you good advice."

After speaking, Luo Fan stopped talking to the two of them and walked directly to the toilet in the auction venue.

Wu Junxing looked at Luo Fan who was going away, and he didn't have the slightest intention to keep him. Instead, he smiled and said to Zhou Xinnuo: "Master Zhou, since this Luo Fan is no longer here, we can leave."

Zhou Xinnuo suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, put his hands behind his back, and said lightly: "It should be so."

Seeing this scene, Wu Junxing was also at ease. Master Zhou's compulsion is high, and giving up a so-called Luo Fan for him is a sure-fire deal.

After finishing speaking, Wu Junxing took Zhou Xinnuo and walked in from the side passage. In order to participate in this auction, he directly booked a box instead of entering through the gate like everyone else.

Now that Luo Fan has come, it is naturally impossible to go back just like that, so I should sign up to have a look anyway.

Although the auction is now using auction machines, which can well hide the identity of customers, just to be on the safe side, Luo Fan still plans to change his appearance and put on a vest first.

Since the last incident, Luo Fan has always carried some simple disguise tools with him. Although he cannot completely transform into another person, it is enough to confuse the public.

After Luo Fan's disguise is finished, he directly plans to sign up for this auction as a retail investor.

The auction does not reject retail investors like Luo Fan, as long as they can pay a sufficient deposit, they will always come.

After paying a sufficient deposit, Luo Fan was also qualified for admission, because it was already a bit late at this time, and his position was very low.

However, the auction of this kind of thing has nothing to do with the location, and Luo Fan doesn't care. He came this time mainly to see what the auction is like.

Soon, Luo Fan sat down in his seat.

There was still some time before the auction officially started, and Luo Fan sat in his seat and began to look through the auction's list of items.

The auction items are usually set in advance, and there are few temporary changes. Therefore, brochures are usually printed and distributed to guests who come to bid.

Guests can learn about the auction items in advance through the brochure, and decide what item to sell at that time.

Of course, the auction will only be responsible for the words written on it, and other things have nothing to do with them.

Moreover, the brochure of the auction will not announce all the lots, and there will always be some important lots that need to be kept secret temporarily, leaving some suspense for everyone.

Luo Fan flipped through the brochure. Although there were many lots on it, he basically didn't find anything he was interested in.

It seems that we can only look forward to those auction items that are not listed, but those items are usually sold out very hard, and Luo Fan probably can only watch the excitement.

When Luo Fan was looking at the brochure boredly, he didn't realize that there was a pair of eyes staring at him all the time.

Wu Junxing's box is very close to Luo Fan's position. If you observe carefully, you can even see Luo Fan's expression clearly. Of course, ordinary people are not so boring, just don't go to the lot to see the guests.

However, Zhou Xinnuo, who was tricked by Luo Fan, was obviously not among them. Ever since he found Luo Fan's figure, he had been secretly observing Luo Fan.

Although Luo Fan has already carried out a simple disguise, but the time is too hasty and there are not many professional tools. If someone who is familiar with him comes to see him, he can still find out his identity.

Besides, Luo Fan didn't even change his clothes, so it was reasonable for Zhou Xinnuo to see through him.

It's not that Zhou Xinnuo has any thoughts about Luo Fan, but he wants to see what kind of monster this Luo Fan is, and the three of them can't do it together.

At the beginning, Ding Yang's words were believed if others didn't believe him, because he sorted out the matter carefully afterwards and found that the whole matter seemed to be completely under the control of this young man.

However, the other two experts held a different view on this matter. If they were replaced this time, they would probably not be so afraid of Luo Fan.

They still think that these are just coincidences, and Ding Yang is just deceiving himself.

Soon enough, it's almost time to start.

After the host gave an introduction, as the auctioneer walked to the center of the display stand, the auction officially started.

The items in the previous auctions were all small gadgets, not very valuable, and they were just for everyone to take photos for fun, but there were no disturbances, and they would be bought by those who liked them in less than five rounds of auction.

As time went by, some good things gradually began to be sold, but not everything was liked by people, and many things would be unsold because no one bid in the end.

Whether the price of the auction is expensive or not is mainly reflected in the transaction price. If the transaction is only at the reserve price, it is very cost-effective.

Luo Fan originally intended to participate a little bit, but he either didn't like these auctions, or was picked up by others, and the price was not suitable, so they all acted as escorts.

It seems that this auction is less interesting than I imagined, and it is basically impossible to miss it, because many auctions actually have self-topping.

Many lot owners are afraid that their lot will be sold at a low price, so they will choose to raise the price themselves. Therefore, it is basically difficult to sell at a price lower than the market price.

Of course, there is also a risk in the top price. It is very likely that it will go up all of a sudden, making the real buyer retreat. This item will just fall into the hands of itself, and we can only wait for the next auction.

This auction was really boring, and it didn't have the thrills that Luo Fan imagined. If Luo Fan didn't plan to see the finale, he would have left directly.

On Wu Junxing's side, with Zhou Xinnuo's assistance, he also won several satisfactory lots, and also avoided some potentially problematic lots.

This situation made him more and more convinced that the decision to drive away Luo Fan was extremely correct.

If Zhou Xinnuo hadn't been there, he might have been fooled if he didn't pay attention.

Soon, the whole auction came to the penultimate lot, and under the advocacy of the auctioneer, this last lot was sent up.

Luo Fan took a look, good guy, this time he met an old acquaintance again, and took a closer look, it turned out to be the painting he had seen in Qin Pavilion.

It's just that this painting has changed again this time, and it has become another look. The blemish in the lower right corner has disappeared, which also doubles its value.

Otherwise, with its original worth of hundreds of thousands, it is not worthy of appearing as an item before the finale.

If this painting is genuine, the market price is about 200 million. Now the base price is only 100 million, and the price increase is no less than [-]. Isn't it very exciting?

Obviously, Luo Fan was not at all moved, but the others became agitated. After the host shouted, they immediately began to bid, wanting to take pictures of this blood-earned painting.

Wu Junxing looked at the painting in front of him, and was also a little moved. After his appraisal, it should be a genuine one.

But just to be on the safe side, he still planned to ask Zhou Xinnuo beside him, and said, "Master Zhou, what do you think about this painting?"

view?In Zhou Xinnuo's eyes, this is undoubtedly a genuine painting.

However, he didn't directly say his answer.

Because, just now, when Luo Fan saw other people vying to bid, Luo Fan not far in front actually showed a very disdainful expression, as if he was laughing at these people.

How to do?
Luo Fan obviously thought it was a fake, but he thought it was the real thing, and Wu Junxing also thought so. In this case, who should he listen to?
Zhou Xinnuo really wanted to recommend Wu Junxing according to his own ideas, but Luo Fan's performance took root in his heart, so he couldn't ignore it no matter what.

Wu Junxing looked at the sluggish Zhou Xinnuo with some incomprehension, and asked again, "Master Zhou, what do you think of this painting?"

Now the price of this painting has reached 150 million, but it is still very lucrative, and it can compete with it.
