Douglas Chu arrived at the auction venue under the leadership of the staff.
There were already many people in the venue at this time, including some wealthy people wearing famous brands.
However, Douglas Chu also felt the aura of many warriors.
It seems that because of the Budo summit, Long city has indeed gathered many warriors.
"I just don't know what the goals of these warriors are. If they are the same as him, it will be a bit tricky."
Under Hunk Ou Yang's arrangement, Douglas Chu and others were placed in front positions.
"Douglas Chu, look quickly..."
As soon as Douglas Chu sat down, Debby Zhao exclaimed.
Douglas Chu looked confused, turned around and saw that Candice Lin and Vincent Zhang had walked in.
But walking with them was an old man wearing Taoist robes.
"That is Samon Zhang of the Longhu Mountain Taoist master's mansion . If he comes in person, Hunk Ou Yang can't stop him."Beverly Gu looked at the three of them and explained, as if he had no idea that they could come in. Not surprisingly.
Debby Zhao said angrily: "The ghost is really lingering."
But Douglas Chu shook his head and didn't care.
Come in, come in, as long as they don't provoke him, he won't bother to deal with these people.
But what surprised Douglas Chu was that as soon as these three people came in, another familiar figure followed closely behind them.
It turned out to be Nell Liu, who was beaten by Douglas Chu not long ago.
However, Nell Liu was not in a good condition at this time. His eyes were dull, his face was pale, his breath was weak, and he looked like he might die at any time.
"Why did Nell Liu become like this?"Debby Zhao said in surprise.
She just met him yesterday. Although she was taught a lesson by Douglas Chu, it shouldn't be like this in one day, right?
"Who knows, maybe he did too many bad things?"Douglas Chu shrugged and said calmly.
Nell Liu was secretly acupunctured by him, and if nothing else happened, he would definitely not survive tonight.
However, it was not convenient to talk to Debby Zhao about this kind of thing.
Debby Zhao glanced at Douglas Chu suspiciously, her eyes flickering as if she was thinking about something.
At this moment, the host walked onto the stage.
Everyone immediately became quiet, and Douglas Chu and others also looked towards the stage.
"Hello everyone, welcome to the Long city Auction hosted by our Treasure-Collection Hall ."
"For this auction, we have prepared ten rare items for everyone, each of which is valuable. Everyone is welcome to bid enthusiastically."
"I believe the specific rules have been clearly stated in everyone's invitation letter, but in the final analysis, there is one purpose, that is, the highest bidder gets it."
"Now, I announce that this auction has officially begun... Here is our first lot."
The host said loudly.
After the words fell, under the gaze of everyone, a girl from the background slowly walked out.
There is also a beautiful glass box in his hand.
"This is our first auction item...a blue and white porcelain vase from the Song Dynasty...this is from a famous kiln..."
Following the host’s introduction, there was an exclamation in the audience.
Bidding began soon.
Finally, it was bought by a wealthy man for 78 million.
The next lot is a calligraphy and painting, which is said to be the original work of Tang Bohu.
Finally, it was bought by a collector for 100 million.
Douglas Chu secretly smacked his tongue when he saw it. Was he so crazy from the beginning?
Then the five million in his hand... wouldn't it be useless?
Even Debby Zhao couldn't help but frown.
If what Douglas Chu wants later will cost so much money...should she help?
Tens of millions, even hundreds of millions, this is not a small amount, even if the Zhao family takes it out at once, it will be very painful.
"Regret it?"Beverly Gu looked at Debby Zhao's expression and said with a smile.
Debby Zhao showed a hint of embarrassment.
Beverly Gu smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, everything has its ultimate value. The hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum that Douglas Chu wants is only about five million. No more is possible. After all... no one is stupid. … Auctions are doing this now just to add to the atmosphere.”
Debby Zhao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, looked at Douglas Chu and said, "Don't worry, I can help you for less than 10 million yuan."
It's not like she doesn't want to help, it's not like her father would agree to it.
While the three of them were talking, the third lot was brought up.
It is a white jade bracelet, crystal clear, as if it was carved from crystal.
The starting price is one million!
Although the quality of this thing is good, most of the people present are rich people. I don’t know how many of these things my family has, so although the starting price is not high, there are not many people bidding. The website "一瀹记炷" strontium 蕗痗攵网→M.δξΖwω.℃òm" provides you with interesting reading.
"Is it wrong? We came all the way here just to show us something like this? Are there any good things left?"
"Yeah, if it doesn't work, just go to the finale. If you buy this thing and date a girl, she won't even like it. What's the use of buying it?"
"We came here because of the reputation of Treasure-Collection Hall, and you just show us this? What a disappointment!"
Many people below have already complained.
The host on the stage also looked embarrassed, but he still explained: "This white jade bracelet was brought out of the palace by a palace official in the late Qing Dynasty. Although it is not a valuable item, the advantage is that the material is rare..."
However, in the face of a series of introductions by the host, everyone still looked indifferent.
The host shook his head helplessly and was about to announce the genre...
"One million and one million!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out from the field.
Everyone was stunned for a moment and turned their heads to look.
Debby Zhao also looked at Douglas Chu in disbelief and asked, "Why do you want this?"
Although this kind of white jade bracelet is of good quality, it is not worth the price at all.
As for the hype the host said, anyone can see that it is just a publicity stunt.
If you spend 1.1 million to buy this thing, you might as well go out and buy it in a jewelry store.
Besides, Douglas Chu is a man, why does he need a bracelet?
"This thing is useful to me!"Douglas Chu suppressed his inner excitement and took a deep breath.
He felt a trace of spiritual power fluctuation from the white jade bracelet. If nothing else, it should be some kind of magic weapon that was used to set up the formation in the palace.
Then he was brought out by mistake and was mistaken for an ordinary white jade bracelet.
But since Douglas Chu received the inheritance, he has been very sensitive to spiritual power. Although the distance was too far, he could still sense it.
If he can get this white jade bracelet, then he can use the white jade bracelet as the base to set up a small spirit gathering array.
At that time, all the natural spiritual energy near the formation will be gathered together. In that case, he will not have to worry about cultivation issues.
So strictly speaking, this white jade bracelet is more valuable than the hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, so this can be regarded as an unexpected surprise for him.
"Okay, this little brother bids 1.1 million...is there anyone who bids higher?" the host said excitedly.
Every time a product is auctioned, he will get a commission, and if the auction fails, he will be deducted money, so he naturally hopes that someone will bid.
Hearing this, the wealthy people around shook their heads.
One million is already the limit for this bracelet. Any more would be considered a fool's errand.
They are all old foxes who have been in the mall for a long time. How can they continue to film?
Seeing that no one raised the price, the host looked disappointed, but Douglas Chu couldn't hide his excitement.
"1500000!"
However, at this time, another voice suddenly sounded.
The entire audience was stunned and looked towards the place where the sound came from with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
