Chapter 64
"Peony vase, the auction price starts at 100,000 Yuan and each increase must be at least 50,000 yuan . "
Just as Meiren Liu’s voice fell, the crowd already couldn’t wait to start shouting .
Especially Young Master Chen, who was the first one that stood up and shouted, "I offer 150,000 Yuan . "
"Young Master Chen, that is unexpected of you . "
When he saw that Young Master Chen wanted to buy the peony vase, Qingfeng Li frowned slightly with a cold light flashing through his eyes .
He felt very disgusted with the guy who wanted to chase his wife .
"Since you want the peony vase, I'll make some trouble for you . " Qingfeng made his mind to let Young Master Chen spend some money to vent his anger .
"I offer 200,000 Yuan . " Qingfeng suddenly stood up and said loudly .
Young Master Chen was smiling when he heard Qingfeng’s voice . He was astonished and then a hint of anger showed up in his eyes .
He obviously did not expect that Qingfeng dared to compete with him in the auction . He was one of the four Young Masters in Eastern Sea City . It was obvious that he could not lose to a small staff member of the Ice Snow Corporation . This was an issue of honor . Since he opened his mouth for the vase, he had to get the peony vase .
"I offer 300,000 . " Young Master Chen said loudly with a cold light flashing in his eyes .
"400,000 . " Qingfeng’s voice followed .
"500,000 . " Young Master Chen continued to shout without any hesitation in his voice .
"600,000 . " Qingfeng looked at him and continued to raise the price of the peony vase .
"700,000 . " Young Master Chen gave Qingfeng a fierce look . The anger in his voice seemed to threaten Qingfeng .
"800,000 . " Facing Young Master Chen’s threat, Qingfeng continued to increase the price in order to aggravate him even further .
"1 million!" Young Master Chen’s blood rushed into his head as he called out the price . His anger at Qingfeng almost drove him crazy .
Young Master Chen only had one thought in his mind, that was he must beat Qingfeng and get that peony vase . As to how much money he had to spend, he had already forgotten . He had been taken over by impulse .
"You win, this peony vase is yours . " When Young Master Chen called 1 million, Qingfeng smiled with a sneer flashing in his eyes . After that, Qingfeng gave Young Master Chen a mocking look and sat down randomly .
At the moment of him sitting down, Qingfeng vaguely saw the ghastly pale face and trembling body of Young Master Chen . It seemed that this unlucky fellow must be very angry .
After all, 1 million was not a small number .
The whole dinner-auction hall was deathly silent . All the people were looking at Young Master Chen in a strange way, like they wanted to laugh at him . This guy was really a money man . But even if you had too much money to spend, you still shouldn’t waste it like this .
Young Master Chen’s face took on a ghastly expression when he found out everybody was looking at him like a fool . By now he had realized that he was screwed by Qingfeng and was taken in by his trick .
Tong Tong-Tong!!!
After three sounds of a heavy hammer knocking on the wooden table, the Peony Vase was finally bought by Young Master Chen at the price of 1 million .
The price was 10 times higher than the starting price of 100,000 for the peony Vase .
Although the peony vase was porcelain from Qing Dynasty, the value was only 500,000 maximum .
But Young Master Chen spent 1 million, which made him almost explode with rage .
And the most important point of all, Young Master Chen lost face when he was played like a hell of a joke by Qingfeng in front of everyone .
Therefore, the way he looked at Qingfeng became very cold . However, Qingfeng just gave a faint smile in front of his cold eyes and ignored him . He turned back to chat with Xue Lin who was sitting beside him .
Their intimate appearances caused Young Master Chen to feel a burst of jealousy . The first auction item was a good start and Meiren Liu’s heart was very excited . After a little pause, the auction of the next item started . The second piece of the auction was a legendary luminous pearl .
This luminous pearl was egg sized and emitted a silver-white light . Eventually, it was obtained by the richest man in Eastern Sea City . The auction continued and more than 10 pieces of antiques were sold one after another . . .
When the auction came to the last item, Qingfeng’s heart was suddenly touched . Because he found this last piece of Jade was very special, with a feeling of déjà vu . This jade pendant was neither white nor green, it was variegated . The color was green with gray, and seemed kind of ugly .
The best variety of jade was the imperial jade which was purebred emperor green . It was followed by white; variegated jades was the worst type and had the lowest price .
"This is the last antique pendant . The auction price is 100,000 yuan with a minimum increase of 50,000 yuan each time . " Meiren Liu held this variegated jade and announced in a sweet voice .
Her brows were slightly wrinkled . She was not optimistic about this piece of jade at all . The appearance of this piece of jade was very bad . She had sold a lot of antiques through auction and felt that this variegated jade was not worth a lot of money .
When rich people bought Jade, the first thing they cared about was the appearance of color, and the second thing they focused on was the shaping and modeling . The appearance color of this variegated jade was too ugly . It was the ugliest pendant among all the antiques that Meiren Liu had seen in the auction .
Sure enough, nobody responded after Meiren quoted the price . Everyone was not optimistic about this jade .
"This jade pendant is 100,000 Yuan . Does anyone want to bid for it?" Meiren asked again, but no one wanted to buy it . She was a bit disappointed .
"Oh, I remember . This is the Phoenix pendant in the pair of the Dragon and Phoenix Pendants . " A lightbulb suddenly lit up in his head . Qingfeng finally remembered that this was a piece of treasure . The piece’s true feature was hidden .
The Dragon and Phoenix Pendants, as the name implied, were two pieces of jade . A piece was the Dragon pendant and another piece was the Phoenix pendant .
He once saw the Dragon pendant in the British Museum . This piece was similar to the Dragon pendant, but a phoenix was carved in the middle . It was obviously the Phoenix pendant .
Qingfeng no longer hesitated, he stood up and got ready to bid .
However, Qingfeng’s expression suddenly became stiff . A hint of embarrassment appeared on his face . The reason was very simple, Qingfeng didn’t have much money with him . If he bidded for this jade piece, he simply couldn’t afford the money at all .
Qingfeng had the 50,000 reward from his company because he had got King Kong to repay the 1 million debt . Xiaoyu Zhang and he got 25,000 each . He already spent most of it and only had a few thousands of Yuan left now .
A few thousands of Yuan was obviously not enough to buy this pendant . This was not the same as bidding before . Before it was Qingfeng luring Young Master Chen to spend more money and he did not want to buy .
Now this piece of jade, he was determined to have and must buy it over . The antiques of a charity dinner must be paid off in cash or transferred from the bank, no credit was allowed for any purchases .
"What can I do, what can I do? This jade is such rare treasure; I do not know when I could encounter a next time . But I have no money . " Qingfeng’s eyebrows frowned and his face was full of anxiety .
