Dressed as an abandoned daughter of a wealthy family, she relies on metaphysics to become a god

"Dear guests, goddesses and gentlemen, good afternoon! Welcome to the auction held by Jiaxing Auction today. I am the host and auctioneer of this auction. I wish everyone can get together with your favorite collection today! "The auctioneer said forcefully.

"Next, I will show you the first collection of this auction - "Tsurui Resides in the Pine River" by the modern painter Chao Yin, with a starting price of five million!"

"What, the author of this painting is a modern person?" Xu He, a famous Chinese painting master, exclaimed.

"No wonder I can't tell which painter it is from the late Ming Dynasty. I didn't expect it to be a modern person!" Liu Cheng, president of the Imperial Capital Painting and Calligraphy Association, said with a smile, "It's just that I don't seem to know the name 'Chaoyin'. I’ve heard of it, is it someone’s alias?”

Zhou Buyan, the dean of the Imperial College of Art, shook his head. He was very interested in this ‘Chaoyin’. He was the first to raise the sign in his hand and said: “Eight million and eight hundred thousand.”

No one expected that the first bidding for this painting reached 8.8 million yuan, which was a full three million yuan higher than the original price of 5 million yuan.

One of the guests recognized Zhou Buyan and said loudly: "Isn't that Mr. Zhou, the dean of the School of Art at Imperial University? It seems that this painting is really good!"

Chu Yao was also a little surprised. She knew that her painting skills had indeed reached a proficient level, but she also thought that her painting style was too unique and might not be very popular in modern times.

Moreover, this is the first painting of "Chao Yin". After Chu Yao and Uncle Lin discussed it, the two decided to start the bidding at five million. This price is not too high among the many auction items. It can only be said that it is Moderate price.

Unexpectedly, with Zhou Buyan's participation in the auction, many wealthy people believed that this painting must have something unique if it could catch Zhou Buyan's discernment, and they all participated in the bidding.

"17.5 million, 19 million, 21 million!" The host announced the price with high spirits, "It has exceeded 20 million. Friends, the Wang Group, which is currently the highest bidder, Are there any higher prices?”

"Twenty-six million! Ji's Group bids 26 million! Twenty-six million once, twenty-six million twice, and twenty-six million three times! Congratulations to Ji's Group for bidding 26 million Take this picture of "Tsuraku Resides in the Pine River"!"

Ji Jinchen?

Why is he here?

Chu Yao frowned. She and Gu Yu were the only two people when they went out today. Ji Jinchen was not at Ji's house. She thought he would not appear at the auction.

After a while, the waiter took the brocade box with the scroll in it and sent it to Gu Yu and Chu Yao's private room. He said to Chu Yao: "Miss Chu, this is a gift from Mr. Ji. I hope you like it."

Chu Yao was speechless and choked. He didn't expect that the money from the auction would go to Ji Jinchen.

Gu Yu smiled and said: "Yaoyao, you didn't let me take the picture just now, but I didn't expect that Jin Chen would take advantage of it first. It seems that this painting is destined for you, so just accept it."

Chu Yao smiled and said nothing. How could she answer this? Of course this painting was destined to her. She painted it herself, so she didn't let Gu Yu bid. Who knew that Ji Jinchen was also here.

The subsequent lots were relatively unremarkable. It wasn't until Li Xihe's "Early Spring in the Green Mountains" sent by Chu Yao started bidding that the atmosphere became high again.

Li Xihe's calligraphy and paintings are hard to find on the market, and Li Xihe is deeply loved by the wealthy families in the imperial capital, so the bidding soared to 60 million at the beginning.

Finally, "Early Spring in the Green Mountains" was won by Liu Cheng, president of the Imperial Capital Painting and Calligraphy Association, for a high price of 130 million.

Chu Yao felt that the box was a bit stuffy, so he told Gu Yu to go to the exhibition hall downstairs to breathe for a while.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived in the exhibition hall, she heard a female voice with an incredible tone coming from behind her.

"Chu Yao?! Why are you here?!" Chu Wanying frowned, wanting to come up and grab Chu Yao and ask her clearly.

As one of the four wealthy families in the imperial capital, the Chu family naturally participated in this auction. The people who came were Chu Mingcheng and Chu Wanying, the eldest sons of the Chu family.

And Chu Wanying was haunted by evil spirits and never had a good rest. Originally, she only got up half an hour late, but she was in a bad mood no matter what she did recently. She wiped off her makeup and put it on again. In the end, Chu Mingcheng waited for her for two full days. Hours.

Chu Mingcheng waited impatiently, but when he saw that the sister he had doted on since childhood was haggard and thin recently, he felt heartbroken and said nothing.

When they arrived at the auction, the auction had already started for an hour. They did not see Chu Yao and Liu Yaru arguing about the painting before, and they did not know that Chu Yao participated in the auction.

Chu Wanying became angry when she saw Chu Yao. She took her father's 40 million for no reason, which caused their family's living expenses to be reduced by half.

The brothers are all grown up and have their own jobs, so they don't care about the little money, but one hundred thousand yuan is quite important to Chu Wanying!

The cheapest bag in her wardrobe costs RMB 70,000 to RMB 80,000. She is also a shopaholic. She buys at least five or six bags every time she goes shopping. She also has to renew annual memberships for her beauty salon, makeup artist and hairstylist. , ranging from 300,000 to 500,000 a year.

Chu Wanying played coquettishly to Chu Boting and wanted some pocket money. Chu Boting saved 10 million when buying Fengya Garden, so he gave his precious daughter 3 million with a wave of his hand.

It happened that Chu Mingcheng said that there was an antique auction this weekend, and her fiancé Pei Yaoxuan would also attend. Chu Wanying immediately said that she would also go.

She spent a long time dressing up today, and even her earrings were carefully selected. Who knew that her fiancé Pei Yaoxuan didn't see her, and she saw Chu Yao, a thorn in her side, first.

Chu Yao seemed to have eyes on his back. He turned slightly to the opposite direction from where Chu Wanying reached out and was not caught by her.

Chu Yao turned around and walked back as if he didn't see Chu Wanying.

"Stop! I told you to stop, didn't you hear me!" Chu Wanying was furious. Chu Yao was just a country girl. How dare she walk over and turn a blind eye!

Chu Wanying stepped on eight-centimeter high heels and wanted to catch up with Chu Yao, but the stairs from the first floor to the second floor were very long and it was very difficult for her to walk.

Chu Yao has always maintained a subtle speed, which makes it impossible for her to catch up but is not very far away from her.

In the empty exhibition hall, the sound of Chu Wanying's high heels could be heard. Seeing Chu Yao walking into Box 6 on the second floor, Chu Wanying was stopped by the receptionist at the door.

She was very angry. Chu Yao must have taken the 40 million and started squandering it lavishly before he dared to come to the auction to buy antiques.

Chu Wanying sneered, she wanted to see, Chu Yao's 40 million was enough for her to buy several antiques!

After Chu Yao returned to the VIP box, it happened to be the turn of the ice egg noodle pendant that Gu Yu had been eyeing before. The starting price was 1.3 million.

Although the water color of this pendant is good, the price of two million is not far from the market price, so everyone is not interested in this pendant.

"The bid for box No. 9 is 6 million, and the bid for box is million. Is there any higher price, million once, million twice..." the auctioneer asked, "The Chu Group offered two million!"

Everyone was in an uproar. Two million was far more than the price of this pendant. Why did the Chu Group suddenly raise the price to such a high price?

Chu Yao frowned. It seemed that Chu Wanying was in conflict with him?

Chu Yao once again offered 2.3 million. Gu Yu liked this pendant very much. She could still afford it at only 2 million.

And the Chu Group directly followed up with 2.5 million!
