Every day is one step closer to reality
Chapter 440 Misunderstanding?
Feng Yi smiled with satisfaction when he heard Feng Chi calling out the price.
The two of them had acted together in the Feng family when they were students. They had deceived so many people and had been working together for so many years under the eyes of that group of people. As expected, the two cousins still had a tacit understanding.
He regretted saying 2.5 million just now. This number sounded a bit subtle.
He didn't pay attention when he said it and shouted it out casually. He thought that others would quickly pass this number, so he didn't think much about it when he called out the price.
Unexpectedly, it suddenly became quiet.
Fortunately, Feng Chi took over.
"three million."
Feng Yi shouted.
It’s not like I’m trying to lower the price. This scene is too embarrassing. Everyone knows that Feng Chi is with me. It’s just a little bit of a cushion. Don’t make it too exaggerated. I’ll take a random photo later.
In the end, Feng Yi won the black rough diamond for three million, which was far less than the more than ten million that the Wang family expected.
Some of the guests couldn't hold it back and laughed, but Wang Xuqin, who continued to preside over the auction on the stage, still performed impeccably.
After that, the smoke came back again, and the atmosphere was completely different from before. Whether it was intentional or just for fun, it was like running and gunning again after the intermission, the rhythm was fast, intense, and tireless.
This is the normal atmosphere of Mingyao activities!
In comparison, the deserted and calm scene just now was simply distorted.
Mr. Gong and Miss Yin set their sights on a piece of jade. They worked together to acquire the good-quality jade at a high price.
"Smoke" filled the auction hall, and the atmosphere became heated. People were teasing, scolding, and even rolling up their sleeves to get involved, no matter whether it was decent or not.
As a member of the melon-eating crowd, Feng Yi has indeed gained a lot of knowledge. I also roughly know how high the price will be if these people run and bomb.
He picked up the auction book and flipped through it again, looking around and focusing on a painting.
It was a painting jointly painted by several students funded by the Mingyao Fund. It was a love painting and was non-commercial. This painting can't compare with those jewelry and diamonds, but Wang Xuqin also quoted a starting price of over 100,000 yuan.
Feng Yi participated in the bid bidding, but this time there was no silent scene with the black diamond. Many of the guests who had not yet made a move stared at the painting, hoping to get it done cheaper.
Finally, Feng Yi bought the painting for five million.
Wang Xuqin added at this time: "Actually, there is a little surprise here."
While he was talking, he had another picture frame handed over to him.
The painting is not big, about the same as a ten-inch tablet.
Wang Xuqin explained: "This was a gift from one of the authors of the painting just now. It was a painting he made when he was a child. He painted it based on the legends told by his elders in the family when he was young..."
The single-color pencil drawing shows that the brushwork is very childish, and the painting seems to be about the monsters and villagers in the stories of the elders.
The bonus items are not included in the auction brochure.
Feng Yi looked at the painting and blinked.
There is this little surprise that I didn’t know about!
The "monster" in the painting does not have a snake tail, but has fangs and claws, and part of its body is covered with scales.
Feng Yi was very suspicious that this was a scene of one of his ancestors teasing the villagers.
Hey, it’s worth studying.
If this painting was placed in the auction book, he would have set his sights on it. But it’s not bad now.
Some guests joked: "Hey, buy one and get one free, Feng Yi is very lucky!"
Feng Yi nodded and said: "You are indeed lucky."
Others didn't take it seriously, and it didn't matter if they bought one and got several free. Little did he know that Feng Yi really liked this childish painting, and decided to study it with an archaeological mentality afterwards——
Learn about my ancestors who appear everywhere through folk tales.
Feng Yi spent another five million, and everyone knew that this was to make up for the previous black diamond auction.
Black Diamond's three million is still too little for this occasion. "Mingyao Auction" is not a real commercial auction, and it is not decent to talk about "picking up bargains".
By the time all the auction items were taken, it was past midnight.
Almost all the guests took action, and Feng Chi also spent seven million here.
Wang Xuqin stood on the stage and concluded the auction:
"...Dreams bloom and love spreads thousands of miles. We, Mingyao, support those in need to realize their dreams, such as students who have difficulty studying, or those who are talented but face difficult conditions..."
“Sincerely thank you all for coming to participate in this fundraising event of Mingyao!”
After Wang Xuqin finished speaking, the guests also said:
"Brother Xu, you're welcome!"
"Happy to help!"
As he spoke, loud applause erupted.
However, Wang Xuqin, standing on the stage, had some subtleties hidden under his perfect smile.
I always felt that these applauses did not mean much recognition, but sounded like...a slap in the face.
When Feng Yi took pictures of Black Diamond, were these people happy to watch it? Are you all laughing secretly in your heart?
Oh, quite a few of them were blatantly laughing out loud.
These people are not good people!
One is Feng Chi and the other is Feng Yi. I always feel that they are not in harmony with the aura of these two people named Feng. Wang Xuqin has to think carefully about whether and how to invite them next year.
It's hard to say this about Feng Yi, but Feng Chi... Never let guests come to warm up things like that, they are too easy to change and make the decision!
The auction ended and the guests were free to move around. Feng Yi declined their invitation to the night event and returned to the guest room with the items he had acquired today.
Putting the painting aside for now, Feng Yi took the black diamond and looked at it carefully.
Energy matter can respond, but it is different from the diamonds he studied before that were polished by his ancestors.
And it’s not just a superficial reaction. Still needs further research.
He desperately wanted to study it, but this was not a good place for research.
It's not convenient in the city either. It's too easy to be targeted if you make a scene. There are already a lot of people paying attention to him during this period, so it is better to find a quiet place and go deeper with confidence and boldness.
The island is good.
I stopped by to visit Xiao Xin and let Xiao Xin meet her new colleagues.
Making a plan, Feng Yi put the black diamond away and took the childish painting for "archaeology".
The next day, the yacht carrying the guests returned.
Many guests were in low spirits when they disembarked from the yacht, which was the result of an all-nighter.
Back at the hotel, except for those who were catching up on their sleep, other guests were leaving one after another.
Feng Yi and Feng Chi went downstairs together.
"You can drive the sports car back directly. I have other plans for the next few days, so I may not be able to schedule it with you." Feng Yi said.
"Okay! Hehehe, I've been craving for it for a long time!"
Feng Chi asked his assistant to drive his car back, while he drove Feng Yi's supercar.
Although there is no master control terminal that "only recognizes one person" like Feng Yi's smart watch, and some functions are not available, it is enough to satisfy curiosity and satisfy cravings.
"Then which car are you taking?" Feng Chi asked.
"There is also a business car." Feng Yi said.
Xiao Jia has already driven the car over.
"Oh. Wait, I still have something left in the car." Feng Yi opened the door of the sports car and leaned forward to rummage inside.
Not far away, another group of people also came out of the elevator.
Jin Li was talking to someone, and when he saw what Feng Yi was doing, he said to the person next to him, "I'll make a call." Then he walked aside and pretended to be on the phone, but his attention was always on Feng Yi.
The door of Feng Yi's sports car was open, and Jin Li could see Feng Yi's actions inside.
Judging from the posture, he should be rummaging in the hidden storage slot.
Looking at Feng Chi's reaction, Jin Li could make a rough guess. Since you are going to lend your car out, you must empty out the contents, right?
What exactly is it?
While guessing, Feng Yi took several sealing bags with suction nozzles from the car.
"What is this?" Feng Chi was curious.
"It takes a lot of brainpower to write supplementary materials, so I have to make up for it. Here, divide it between two bags."
Sensing Jin Li's overly focused gaze, Feng Yi looked over.
Jin Li smiled awkwardly but politely.
He thought that he had misunderstood Feng Yi.
Just as he was about to leave, Jin Li saw Feng Yi walking towards an approaching black business car. The car looked extremely steady and heavy.
Jin Li has studied modifications in this area, and he can see at a glance some details that are worthy of further study.
Is this security level too high?
Does Feng Yi really need a car of this level?
While thinking about it, Jin Li saw a strong, bear-like man coming out of the car with sharp eyes and a fierce look.
Jin Liyou was dragged.
Is this also Feng Yi's bodyguard?
I have never met him before, but it is obvious that this person is very familiar with the others who are following Feng Yi, the kind of familiarity that comes from working together for a long time.
Maybe this person is the one with hidden strength?
No wonder some people say that the most capable people are underwater and do not show up easily.
However, Jin Li's eyes were not focused on this strong man, but on the strange box he was carrying.
I saw this strong man with a doubtful profession walking to the back of the car carrying the box and carefully placing the long box in the trunk.
This picture gave Jin Li some bad associations. I always feel like there is some kind of powerful weapon inside.
Did he really misunderstand Feng Yi?
Is it possible that he actually didn't misunderstand?
Jin Li was brainstorming.
Feng Yi's side, inside the car.
"Why is Xiao Bing here?" Feng Yi asked.
Xiao Bing put the box away and returned to the car. When Feng Yi asked, he said:
"I went to pick up the new custom-made kitchenware today. I happened to pass by here. I heard from Xiao A that boss, your ship is about to arrive, so I came to pick you up and return."
He said and handed over a cold snack.
The vehicle slowly drove out of the basement, and the windows were not tightly closed. Feng Yi could still hear the loud conversations of several guests.
Looking over, it seemed that the guest's friend was coming to find him.
I was unable to attend the Mingyao event, and my friend's words were somewhat sour.
The guest didn't care, but put his hand on his friend's shoulder:
"It's a pity that you couldn't participate! Hahaha, this Mingyao event was so interesting and had so much fun!"
Those who had not received the invitation could not care less about their sour feelings at this time, and moved closer together, like the crocodile jumping in the melon field:
"Expand and tell me!"
Feng Yi closed the car window.
If I can't hear it, it can't be me.
