Shortly after Bai Xi acquired the first jade pot, she successfully bought the second jade pot, which was also an imperial white jade teapot carved with chrysanthemum pattern during the Qianlong period, for a high price of 700 million yuan.

Ignoring the uglier expression on Lu Shiyao's face, Lu An's expression was somewhat serious. So far in the auction, Bai Xi had bid twice, both times for a jade pot, and the highlight of this auction was also a jade pot, which was also Lu An's main task in attending the auction today.

If Bai Xi's target was also this, then tonight's matter might be a bit difficult. After all, judging from Bai Xi's bidding behavior just now, this was a wealthy man.

As time passed, the auction gradually came to an end, and the finale item that everyone was looking forward to was finally delivered.

"Next, we have the highlight of this auction, which is also the origin of the jade carving theme of this auction. It is a white jade carved sheep head spout melon ridge copper inlaid enamel handle pot used by the imperial court during the Jiaqing period.

This pot is made of white jade, as white as fat. The pot is round, with the entire pot, lid, and knob carved into melon-shaped ridges. A goat's head is embossed on one side of the belly as a spout. Three buttons fasten the shoulders, attached to three ruyi-shaped handles made of copper and cloisonné enamel.

There are only two examples of this teapot with a handle in existence today. One is housed in the Palace Museum, and the other is right in front of you. If you miss it, there will be no next time!

"Starting price: 500 million, each increment must be no less than 10! Bidding begins!"

"550 million!"

"600 million!"

"1000 million!"

.....

Before the auctioneer finished speaking, bidding sounds rang out from the audience, and the price rose much faster than any other collection before. It was obvious that most of the buyers came for this jade pot.

The price of the jade pot quickly climbed to 20 million, and there were not many people left who could still bid. At this time, real buyers began to enter the market.

"3000 million!"

As soon as Lu An opened his mouth, he added another 10 million and screened out another group of people.

"3500 million!"

A buyer in the front row spoke again and added another 500 million.

"3800 million!"

The dark-faced uncle who had an unfortunate family background hesitated for a moment, probably wanting to make a last-ditch effort, and raised the price again.

"5000."

As soon as Bai Xi opened her mouth, everyone was shocked. This was the same way of calling her again! How rich was this girl?

"5500 million!"

Lu An followed closely behind and continued to raise the price.

"5700 million!"

The uncle in the front row tentatively added 200 million, but it also indirectly indicated that this was almost his limit, and the black-faced uncle directly chose to give up.

"7000."

Bai Xi did not give others a chance and continued to raise the price at an asphyxiating rate.

Lu An frowned. This price was almost reaching his bottom line. He originally planned to buy this jade pot and then sell it next year to promote Poly's reputation, but the price was too high and it was no longer cost-effective.

"7500."

"8500."

Bai Xi raised the price without hesitation. The more valuable the thing was, the more it could meet the system's requirements, and the rewards from System Overlord never let her down.

Lu An sighed, thinking about the auctioneer waving his hand, indicating that he would give up bidding, and the auctioneer decisively dropped the hammer.

"Congratulations to buyer number 16! This rare collection is yours. Please go to the notary office after the auction to pay and take it away."

"I declare this charity auction a complete success! Thank you all for your support!"

"congratulations."

After the hammer fell, several buyers around Bai Xi turned around and congratulated her. Those who can become rich are all smart people. The financial resources displayed by Bai Xi tonight are enough to win their respect.

Although most of them are worth over 10 billion, most of it is fixed assets. Everyone knows what it means that they can easily take out nearly 100 million in cash flow just to buy a collection.

More connections mean more paths. Those who have made it this far understand this truth.

Bai Xi took their business cards with a smile and put them in her bag.

"Miss Bai, congratulations."

Lu An walked to her seat at some point and extended his hand to congratulate her.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, I really like this jade pot."

Bai Xi reached out his hand and shook hands with him, feeling a little embarrassed. After all, Lu An had helped him last time, and this time he had snatched several of his items in a row, which seemed a bit ruthless.

"That's out of the question. Auctions are all about skill, and the highest bidder wins. Your financial resources are beyond my expectations."

"Of course, if you plan to sell the white jade pot with handle later, please give priority to us, Poly."

Lu An shook his head and said with a smile, his expression a little puzzled.

"No problem, I'll definitely find you if I need anything."

Bai Xi nodded in agreement, but she was saying sorry in her heart. If this could meet the system's requirements, she would never sell it. After all, according to the system's requirements, if she used the mission items to make a profit, the system would freeze it directly, and she didn't dare to take this risk.

Just when Bai Xi was feeling a little tired of dealing with the wealthy people who were gathering around him and was thinking about just running away, a figure in a formal suit rushed onto the auction table, snatched the auctioneer's gavel, and slammed it heavily on the table.

"boom!"

The whole place fell silent in an instant. All the guests and buyers, including those who were packing up to leave, were startled and couldn't help but look towards the stage.

But Lu Shiyao stood on the stage with a face full of jealousy, staring fiercely at Bai Xi, who was the center of attention. When she saw everyone looking at her, she said loudly with an angry tone:

"You've all been deceived by her! She has no money at all! She was just bidding a random price!"

Bai Xi was silent for a while, turned to look at Lu An and blinked.

"Mr. Lu?"

Lu An's face turned pale, and he shouted at Lu Shiyao:

"Lu Shiyao! Get down here!"

"I don't! I have evidence. My new sister Wanqiu goes to the same school as her. Not only is she a country bumpkin, she's also a payback! She chased my sister's bootlicker for three years and was fooled! I don't know which old man she sold herself to in exchange for the jewelry last time!

If you don’t believe me, ask them! They can all testify!”

Lu Shiyao suddenly pointed to the back row. Everyone looked in the direction she pointed and saw a man and a woman sitting in their seats, looking a little at a loss.

Seeing so many rich people looking at him, Chen Luo swallowed his saliva. He had just witnessed during the auction that this group of people did not regard money as money, and this was also the biggest desire in his heart.

He licked Shang Wanqiu so much, wasn't it because he hoped that one day he could climb up to the high branch of Shang family and spend money freely from then on?

But he would never believe that the Bai Xi who had been chasing him so hard before had suddenly turned around and become the kind of existence he could not even imagine. Or he was unwilling to believe what he had missed.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Lu, I can..."

"Shut up! No one told you to talk!"

Lu An got angry, which was rare for him. Shang Wanqiu, who wanted to say something, swallowed his words back under his sharp gaze.

Lu An walked through the crowd and pulled Lu Shiyao off the stage.

"Lu Shiyao! What on earth do you want to do?!"

Lu Shiyao struggled to break free from Lu An's hand, staring at Bai Xi with an extremely harsh expression:

"I want to verify my capital! I want to bring this country bumpkin down to his true form!"
