Chapter 485 Sunflowers of Hellfire (1)

An art auction in New York

The auctioneer said: "The next lot is the star of our auction. It is not only a world-famous painting, but also a priceless treasure of mankind. This is a work that was once thought to have disappeared forever - Vincent Van Gogh's "Sunflowers."

As the curtain slowly fell, a famous painting "Sunflowers" appeared before everyone.

Audience A asked in surprise: "How can there be such a painting as 'Sunflowers'?"

Audience B was also puzzled: "I remember that painting of Sunflowers was burned down in the war a long time ago."

The auctioneer motioned for everyone to be quiet: "Please be quiet for a moment! We will now explain the origin of this painting in detail."

The host took over the topic: "It is generally believed that Vincent Van Gogh painted a total of seven "Sunflowers" during his stay in Arles."

The auctioneer added: "The painting that appeared in this auction is the second "Sunflowers". It is said that as early as 1945, this painting was burned in Ashiya, Japan due to the war. But unexpectedly, a painting with the same composition was found in Arles last year. After professional appraisal by many experts, it has been confirmed that this painting is undoubtedly from the hand of Vincent Van Gogh."

The host excitedly announced: "Okay, now please bring new life to this "Sunflowers"! Then, the second "Sunflowers", a dream masterpiece painted by Vincent Van Gogh, will start bidding at a starting price of 1000 million US dollars."

At this time, the audience watching the live broadcast on the street were also talking about it.

Audience A exclaimed: "It was 1000 million US dollars at the beginning!"

Audience member B also sighed: "And the price is $10 per bid, which is really scary."

Audience member A then said, "If I had that kind of spare money, I would rather spend it on space travel."

The host excitedly announced: "The current price of the telephone bidding is 2050 million, and the price on the Internet is million."

Then, customer No. 222 shouted, "I'll pay 5000 million US dollars!"

Customer A was talking on the side: "It's true that his reputation is well-deserved. He is well-known in the industry for purchasing famous paintings."

At this moment, a loud voice broke the noise: "I'll offer 1 million US dollars!"

Everyone looked back in surprise, wanting to know who was so generous.

I saw Suzuki Sonoko holding the No. 705 sign, and next to her was her uncle Suzuki Jirokichi.

Suzuki Jirokichi smiled, as if he was used to everyone's reaction, and he emphasized again: "Didn't you hear me? One hundred million US dollars, I'll pay one hundred million US dollars."

Customer No. 222 gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, who is that old man with a big beard?"

The assistant asked anxiously: "What should we do now?"

Customer No. 222 took a deep breath and calmly analyzed: "Withdraw for now, the key will come after million."

The assistant nodded quickly: "Yes, I understand."

At this moment, a loud offer suddenly came: "Two hundred million US dollars!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Suzuki Jirokichi confidently and loudly quoting the price, while Suzuki Sonoko echoed beside him: "Yes, that's right, 200 million US dollars."

The host repeated in surprise, "Two hundred million dollars? If I heard correctly, guest No. 705 has already offered two hundred million dollars."

Afterwards, the host quickly checked the information and secretly exclaimed: "Ah! It turns out that he is the famous Mr. Suzuki. No wonder he is so generous."
