When fishing beauty is bound to the rich system
Chapter 75 The Auction Officially Begins
She looked at Lin Xinran's innocent and lovely appearance, her eyes full of disgust, the corners of her mouth slowly curled up, she raised her chin slightly, and said:
"I don't know how someone like you managed to get in. But you should cherish this opportunity to attend this auction. Although you may not be able to afford even the cheapest exhibits, you can still beg the men who brought you here. Maybe they will buy you something if they are in a good mood."
Lu Yihan waved his hand irritably: "Su Chen, you have to deal with the people you brought with you."
Su Chen knew that Lu Yihan was about to get angry, so he quickly pulled her arm and took her away, fearing that she would say something shameful again.
Wen Shiyan looked at Liu Qingqing's back as she left, and shook his head with some regret. He decided to give up on her. This woman didn't have much brains. At this moment, he was even a little glad that they hadn't had sex yet, otherwise...
Lin Xinran looked at Liu Qingqing's back as she left. She was thinking of a sentence in her mind. What Lu Yihan had just said, you have to deal with the people you brought by yourself. Could it be that she didn't have an invitation letter?
That was quite interesting. After all, according to the information Sister Qiu had found, the Liu family was a wealthy and powerful family in Kyoto. However, Liu Qingqing gave her the impression that she didn't seem like someone from a big family.
It seems there is still something hidden.
There is one minute left until the auction starts.
Lin Xinran sat in her seat. Her seat was very good, in the middle of the second row. On the table next to her, there were snacks from Weixuan Pavilion that the staff had specially prepared for her, as well as her favorite black tea.
Lin Xinran drank a sip of tea and ate some snacks quite comfortably, waiting quietly for the auction to begin, while Duan Ziyuan sat on the sofa next to her.
Everyone can bring a female or male companion, or an assistant to the auction, and Duan Ziyuan is playing the role of an assistant at this time.
Lu Yihan sat in the first row on the right, Kuroda Ichiro and his group sat in the first row on the far left, Qi Tai, Shi Ze and Song Zhijie were in the third row, William was in the second row like Lin Xinran, and Liu Qingqing and the other three were in the third row.
When Liu Qingqing saw Lin Xinran sitting in the middle of the second row, she opened her eyes wide in surprise. She held Su Chen's hand and asked in a low voice, "Who did that woman come with?"
Seeing that she still looked like she was targeting Lin Xinran, Su Chen frowned, pulled his hand away, said nothing, and sat quietly on the sofa looking at the introduction of the auction items next to him.
Liu Qingqing noticed that Su Chen was becoming increasingly cold toward her, and she didn't dare to say anything, so she just sat down obediently.
The auction officially began. A burst of elegant music from the guzheng sounded, and a female auctioneer in an elegant white dress walked onto the stage with a smile on her face.
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the auction hosted by Junlan Villa. I am the National Registered Auctioneer No. 2. I will host today's auction and hope it will bring you good luck.
This auction will be conducted in accordance with the Auction Law of the People's Republic of China, the principles of openness, fairness, justice, honesty and credit, and the rule of the highest bidder wins. This auction has a reserve price for some collections. According to the law, no transaction will be made if the reserve price is not reached. For the rest of the items, there is no reserve price, and the auction will be conducted on the principle of the highest bidder wins.
After the auction begins, I will announce the starting price. Anyone who responds to the starting price please raise your number plate to bid. When two or more bidders appear at the same time..."
"The auction will officially begin. The first lot of this auction is a blue and white cloud dragon pattern sutra cylinder from the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty imitating the Jiajing period. This sutra cylinder has a slender body, a fine body, and a cloud dragon pattern painted on the belly. The ferocious dragon highlights the majesty of the sutra cylinder..."
Lin Xinran didn’t know much about these porcelain treasures, she just thought they looked dignified and elegant. Perhaps they needed someone who knew more about them to collect them, but that person was not her.
Liu Qingqing was always paying attention to Lin Xinran's movements. When she saw that she did not raise her sign to bid, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She might have been a little angry before, but now that she came to her senses, she realized that Lin Xinran seemed different from the women she had known before.
She didn't dislike those pure and attractive girls before, and she didn't care about other good-looking girls at all. After all, her tutor and her family were the best in Kyoto, and she looked down on those girls.
But since she was severely cheated by a pure and innocent girl last time, she feels very disgusted when she sees girls with this kind of appearance. That's why she hated Lin Xinran so much when they met for the first time.
On the other hand, Lin Xinran was eating snacks, drinking black tea, and listening to the auctioneer very comfortably, not taking the hot and jealous gazes behind her seriously at all.
"Congratulations to Mr. Wang No. 31 for his successful bid!"
"The second lot is a Ming Jiajing rosewood incense box inlaid with various treasures and featuring a foreigner playing with a lion. This incense box is made of rosewood and has an ancient and lustrous color..."
"The fifteenth lot is an 11.73 carat natural unheated Sri Lankan sapphire and diamond ring... The starting price is 20."
20? Is that so cheap?
Lin Xinran looked at the picture of the gem ring on the big screen. The crystal clear blue gem was sparkling, and the diamonds around it were a good embellishment. She liked it very much.
Perhaps it was because the gemstone and diamond ring was so beautiful that the price was raised to two million in a short while. Lin Xinran looked at the people around who were still bidding and drank a sip of tea slowly.
It was not until the price was raised to three million that Lin Xinran raised the sign calmly.
The auctioneer's eyes lit up instantly. "Ms. Lin, number 10, bid 20 million. OK, let's increase the price by 20. Ms. Xu, number , bid million. Ms. Lin continues to bid million. Ms. Xu, number , does she want to increase the price? OK, Ms. Xu increased the price to million.
Ms. Lin raised the price to four million again. Will Ms. Xu continue to bid? Okay, thank you very much for participating in the auction. Ms. Lin's highest bid is four million. The transaction is successful. Congratulations to Ms. Lin, No. 10, for winning the sapphire diamond ring at four million. "
The smile on the auctioneer's face grew even happier, because the ring was worth a full two million more than its estimated price.
"Lot 16, a Qing Dynasty Qianlong Doucai Sea Water, Clouds, Bats, and Nine Dragons Double-eared Vase, Made in the Qianlong Period of the Qing Dynasty. This Doucai vase is large in size, decorated with nine dragons and sea of clouds, and has dazzling colors. It is extremely rare. There is only one bottle with similar patterns... Starting price is one million."
Lin Xinran fell in love with this treasure at first sight, and when the bid reached six million, she raised her bid again.
"Okay, Ms. Lin bid 16 million, Mr. Wang No. raised the price again to million, Ms. Lin bid million, Mr. Wang bid million, million, million, million, Ms. Lin bid million, thank you Mr. Wang for participating in the auction, congratulations to Ms. Lin for winning the highest bid of million!"
Liu Qingqing watched Lin Xinran bidding for two items in a row. She silently calculated the price. Fortunately, it was just over 10 million. She guessed that would be her end of the day.
Unexpectedly, the following bidding directly stunned her eyes.
"The 13.22th lot is a fancy vivid blue diamond. This pear-shaped blue diamond is named "The Blue" and weighs carats. It is graded as "flawless fancy vivid blue" and has a starting price of five million."
Liu Qingqing came here originally just for this diamond. She quickly raised her paddle to join the bidding. Lin Xinran was still thinking about whether to buy this diamond or not, because she wanted several other diamond items that were auctioned off afterwards.
When Lin Xinran saw Liu Qingqing start to raise her hand to join the bidding, she instantly made up her mind. There was no need to worry about it. She could just take all of them since she had plenty of money anyway.
"Ms. Liu bid 30 million. Will Ms. Wang continue to bid? Okay, Ms. Lin bid 31 million, 32 million, 33 million. Ms. Lin's phone number is 70 million! Will Ms. Liu continue to bid?"
Seventy million!
The whole audience was in an uproar. It's not that there were no rich people present, but that the rich people like to spend their money on worthwhile things they like. For example, this diamond, although it looks good, may not be worth the price.
Liu Qingqing suddenly looked up at Lin Xinran. She actually still had money, and she even raised the price to 70 million!
Her budget is only 1.5 million, and she originally wanted to shoot a necklace, but it seems she can only choose one of them.
"Ms. Liu called and offered 80 million! Ms. Lin called and offered 100 million! Ms. Liu continued to raise the price to 110 million, and Ms. Lin offered 150 million! Will Ms. Liu continue to raise the price?"
Lin Xinran actually raised it to 1.5 million! How could she be so rich?
Lu Yihan looked back at Lin Xinran with some surprise, but he didn't expect that Lin Xinran was drinking tea leisurely, with his phone on the table, ready to make a bid at any time.
It's interesting.
William looked at Liu Qingqing's furious expression, then looked at Lin Xinran's calm expression, and he couldn't control the smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Ms. Liu did not bid any more. Thank you for participating in the auction. Ms. Lin, number 10, bid 1.5 million. Congratulations to Ms. Lin for winning the auction!"
Duan Ziyuan silently helped her keep accounts on the computer. He remembered clearly what she took pictures of and how much she paid for them.
