Nan Jingyou smiled and said, "My family let me out to see the world. The person next to me is my friend."

He didn't say that You Che was his butler because he didn't want to be so high-profile.

And he really didn't treat You Che as a butler. The way they got along was more like friends.

So it’s not necessarily wrong for Nan Jingyou to say that You Che is his friend.

You Che didn't say anything, but kept his eyes on the young man.

The young man felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, but he was a person who couldn't sit still. After being silent for a while, he took the initiative to chat with Nan Jingyou.

Nan Jingyou didn't refuse him and started chatting with him politely.

He struck just the right balance during the conversation, and the young man had a good impression of Nan Jingyou.

From their conversation, Nan Jingyou learned the man's name: Qin Yang, 24 years old.

The two didn't chat for long before the hall suddenly became dark.

Then, a beam of light lit up in the center of the hall, and the lift slowly rose, revealing a beautiful woman in a bright red cheongsam.

The woman picked up the auction hammer and hammered it on the base of the table. The hall, which had been noisy just now, became silent.

The woman smiled and said in a melodious voice, "Dear guests, welcome to the second quarter auction of Wanbaolou. I am today's auctioneer - Xuanyin. Please abide by the auction rules. The auction will begin now."

After saying this, the auctioneer struck the hammer again, and the lights in the hall instantly came on again.

Wanbaolou holds a grand auction every quarter, but there is a rule that the items to be auctioned will be kept confidential before each auction.

In other words, only after the auction officially starts will we know the specific items being auctioned.

But the amazing thing is that even so, every time people come to the auction they take it very seriously and are all ready to show off their skills.

The reason is that every time Wanbaolou takes out something, it is of very high value, and many of them are what these wealthy bosses need.

After the lights came on, the auctioneer raised his hands and clapped, and soon a staff member brought the first item.

The items were covered with red cloth, and the staff slowly pulled open the cloth after they were placed in the display cabinet.

As the red cloth was opened, the large screen in the center of the hall also projected the true appearance of the item.

"Dear guests, today's first lot is a Ge Kiln Ice Crack Azure Plate from the Northern Song Dynasty. Its glaze is like solidified fat, the ice cracks are clear, and there are three fine nails like gravel on the bottom. The whole piece is perfect..."

"The starting price is 208 million, and each bid increment must not be less than 10. Please hold up your number plate before bidding. The highest bidder wins. Bidding begins now."

Nan Jingyou picked up the number plate on his desk and took a look. It showed that he was number 118.

However, he was not interested in the item, so he did not bid.

The scene was already heating up, and the auctioneer called out several rounds of prices, but it was only people in the hall who were bidding, and there was no movement in the box at all.

Yes, the first few items are just to warm up the atmosphere. The good stuff is still to come. The big guys upstairs should be eyeing more valuable things.

After several rounds of bidding, the first item was finally bought by a middle-aged man in the hall for 328 million yuan.

The next few pieces are porcelains from various dynasties, with bidding prices ranging from several million to tens of millions.

Although Nan Jingyou had no intention of buying, he still listened with great interest.

He felt this was a good opportunity to see the world.

Qin Yang next to him was obviously not interested in these things. He slumped on the sofa in boredom, and occasionally spoke a few words to Nan Jingyou, who also politely took over the conversation and answered.

"The seventh lot is a Qing Dynasty famille rose revolving vase, which is made of a variety of colors such as turmeric, powder, amber, azure, gold, etc. It combines a variety of crafts such as hollowing, rolling and revolving. It is ingenious, with complex patterns and rich collection value..."

"Starting price, each bid should not be less than two million. Bidding starts now."

As soon as the hammer dropped, competition in the venue became even more intense than before, with even the big shots from the box entering the venue.

Nan Jingyou didn't quite understand why this revolving bottle was so much more valuable even though they were both pieces of porcelain.

You Che, who was standing by, seemed to know the doubts in Nan Jingyou's heart and took the initiative to explain to him.

He deliberately lowered his voice and said in a low voice: "It is an item used by the royal family of the Qing Dynasty. It is of rare craftsmanship and has a very high collection value. An item of equal value is now in the collection of the National Museum of China."

Nan Jingyou suddenly realized and looked at You Che with gratitude.

He said, "You Che, how do you know so many things?"

You Che chuckled and whispered into Nan Jingyou's ear: "I am an interstellar robot. It is easy for me to capture the Internet information of this world."

Nan Jingyou felt the breath of the person next to him and stiffened unconsciously. He coughed lightly and said, "I understand."

Then pretend nothing happened and continue to pay attention to the next auction.

You Che smiled faintly, leaned lazily on the sofa, and looked towards the hall.

In the battle for porcelain, Nan Jingyou watched the price rise from more than 50 million to more than 130 million, which completely refreshed his values.

More than ten minutes later, the porcelain was bought by a big shot in the box on the second floor for 186 million.

The astonishing transaction price stunned Nan Jingyou and caused people in the hall to whisper.

At this moment, he also intuitively felt how insignificant money was in the eyes of these big guys.

The auction did not stop because of everyone's surprise.

The next items to be auctioned were some jewelry and watches, some worth several million and some worth tens of millions, but none of them were worth hundreds of millions.

One of the pink diamond jewelry sets was bought by a woman for 98 million.

……

"The next set of jewelry comes from Yu Ya Xuan. I believe everyone knows the status of Yu Ya Xuan, so without further ado, let's take a look at the items."

Nan Jingyou frowned. As a country bumpkin, he had no idea what Yuyaxuan was. He had no choice but to take out his cell phone to search.

As soon as I turned on the phone, a magnetic voice came to my ears.

"Yuyaxuan can be said to be the originator of the jade industry. Its history can be traced back more than 500 years ago. Our ancestors made their fortune from jade, and the business has been passed down to the present day."

"The quality and craftsmanship of their jade are both top notch in the industry. Among the jade antiques exhibited in major museums across the country, at least ten pieces are from their ancestors."

"In the upper circles of China, the wealthy are proud to own a piece of jade jewelry from Yuyaxuan. However, even if it is sought after by the wealthy, it is extremely difficult to buy because Yuyaxuan produces only a limited number of pieces each year."

Nan Jingyou was shocked, "So powerful?"

You Che was amused by Nan Jingyou's dazed look, "It's just so-so, it's just that the inheritance is not broken, and he is blessed by his ancestors."
