Chapter 1089: 1089
Gu Ning left with Leng Shaoting and the others and went to find their seats .
The seats were divided into four areas, A, B, C, and D . Area A was VVIP area; Area B was VIP area, while both Area C and Area D were for common guests .
Gu Ning came here as the boss of Colorful Jade Provider which was an influential jade company in City Teng, so she had a seat in Area A .
Zi Beiying and the others sat in the same area with her .
In order of arrival, they sat in the back rows of Area A, which didn’t actually matter .
Qi Ziyue and other people had seats in Area A as well, but they went to see the partially-cut jade raw materials once they entered the hall . Although they didn’t know much about jade, they were interested in it .
Dongfang Ziyu and Wu Shunhua didn’t have an invitation letter, so they sat in Area D .
The auction would begin in 20 minutes, and many people began to sit in their seats .
When Zhao Yuefeng noticed Gu Ning, he walked towards her . “Hi, Miss Gu, why aren’t you going to look at the jade raw materials?”
Gu Ning smiled . “I don’t think it’s necessary . ”
Hearing that, Zhao Yuefeng smiled too . He understood that it was easy for Gu Ning to get jade of high quality given her unbelievable ability .
Afterwards, Zhao Yuefeng went back to his seat in Area B .
…
All the guests went back to their seats when it neared 12 pm . Qi Ziyue and the others walked to Area A . None of them dared to be unkind to Gu Ning and her friends now .
At 12 pm, the auction began .
On the stage, a beautiful young woman walked out in a red gown and her beauty stunned many people .
“Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen . Welcome to today’s annual jade auction in Burma . Now please allow me to introduce the rules…” The hostess simply introduced the rules of the auction to the audience .
In fact, the rules weren’t complicated .
“Alright, today’s auction begins . ”
Once the hostess made the announcement, all the information of jade raw material No . 1 was shown on the big screen behind her .
This jade raw material had a window of green on it, so it was obviously expensive .
It was about 83 kilograms, and the exposed jade was the best old-pit glass jade . Because the diameter of the window was just as large as that of an ordinary cup, bidders couldn’t know the type, size, or quality of the jade inside .
However, it was very easy for Gu Ning to find out with the help of her Jade Eyes .
In the jade raw material No . 1, there was a piece of jade of old-pit glass type . Moreover, it was very large and accounted for two thirds of the jade raw material .
Its opening bid was a million dollars, and the bid increment couldn’t be less than five hundred thousand dollars .
According to the size of the jade in it, Gu Ning thought that its price should be around five hundred million yuan . However, because it was a partially-cut jade raw material, other bidders might stop bidding when the price reached two hundred million yuan, which was nearly thirty million dollars .
They didn’t know whether there was really jade inside, so it was highly risky .
In most cases, the outer layer of a jade raw material could be very thick, so people tended to believe that the jade in it was small . Anyway, it was rare to see a bid of over three hundred million yuan .
“Two million dollars . ”
“2 . 5 million dollars . ”
“Three million dollars . ”
…
“Twenty million dollars . ”
Before long, the price reached twenty million dollars, and the bidder was Dongfang Ziyu . Although she didn’t know how large the jade was in it, she wanted to have a try because it was a jade raw material of high quality .
After the price reached twenty million dollars, fewer and fewer bidders continued to bid for it .
Gu Ning remained silent till now . She planned to wait and bid at the last minute .
Some people who were familiar with Gu Ning, however, hesitated to join the game . They subconsciously thought that there might be no jade in No . 1 jade raw material or it wasn’t worth the price .
Gu Ning understood that she was affecting their behavior, but she didn’t care about them .
“24 million dollars . ”
“24 . 5 million dollars . ”
For now, only Dongfang Ziyu and a jewelry businessman were competing against each other .
Once Dongfang Ziyu made the bid of 24 . 5 million dollars, the jewelry businessman stopped bidding . It was a very high price after all .
24 . 5 million dollars equaled 166 million yuan .
Even though the window showed green old-pit glass jade, it didn’t mean that there would be valuable jade inside .
“Twenty five million dollars . ”
Gu Ning finally made her bid .
Hearing that, Zhang Dequan and many other jewelry businessmen who kept glancing at Gu Ning got excited at once .
Since Gu Ning was willing to offer a high price for it, they knew that there must be a very valuable jade inside .
In that case, some of them began to bid for the jade raw material .
Gu Ning actually felt a little uncomfortable because she knew that those jewelry businessmen did it on purpose .
“25 . 5 million dollars . ”
“Twenty six million dollars,” Dongfang Ziyu said .
“26 . 5 million dollars,” Gu Ning said .
…
After several rounds, the other bidders all gave up, and only Dongfang Ziyu and Gu Ning were left in the game .
