Everyone, including Sun Xiaoyan, was hesitant, but the auction had to continue. Soon, the auctioneer's voice came: "This gentleman is asking for 3 million US dollars. Are there any other bids?"

Sun Xiaoyan stared blankly at the picture on the screen with a frown on his face, thinking quickly in his mind. Ma Fang beside him whispered to him, "Xiaoyan, this stone is so valuable. It's useless to us even if we bid for it. Let's just give up!"

"Give up! The price of this stone is too high. Who knows, that middle-aged man might just be a stooge!"

"Don't give up! You have to trust your intuition. This stone is very important!"

"..."

For a moment, two villains appeared in Sun Xiaoyan's mind. The pros and cons kept arguing, trying to persuade Sun Xiaoyan to listen to their opinions.

While Sun Xiaoyan was thinking it over, the auctioneer even had someone take out the collection and push it to the front of the stage in order to get everyone to bid more.

"Everyone, this meteorite has appeared three times in the past ten years. The first two were sold at auction. This is the third one, and it's a rare opportunity. I'm asking for the last time. Are there any high bidders?"

Although the auctioneer repeatedly advertised, the price offered by the middle-aged man was too high, and many people chose to give up.

The middle-aged man was still worried at first, but when he saw that Sun Xiaoyan just frowned slightly and said nothing, and the others also gave up with serious expressions, the middle-aged man finally felt relieved.

The auctioneer saw that no higher price appeared even after he had promoted the price for a long time, so he knew that this was it. However, even so, it was still not bad. 230 million was a price much higher than the previous two meteorites, and it was considered an explanation to the boss.

The auctioneer raised the gavel and looked at everyone: "If no one bids higher, 3, 2..."

Just as the auctioneer was about to call out 1 and bring down the gavel, Sun Xiaoyan, who had been staring at the big screen in a trance, suddenly raised his hand and shouted, "I'll bid 5 million US dollars."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar at the scene again, and everyone looked at Sun Xiaoyan in shock. Before, everyone just thought it was a beautiful vase.

But at this moment, everyone felt that this vase might be a golden vase!

The middle-aged man put his heart back into his stomach, then raised it again. He frowned and thought for a moment, then raised his hand and shouted, "6 million US dollars!"

"One hundred million...US dollars!"

Since it was decided to continue the bidding, Sun Xiaoyan simply let go and raised the bidding price to 6 million US dollars based on the 1 million US dollars called out by the middle-aged man, which silenced everyone present.

"Xiao Yu, you said your classmate's family owns a small business, a small company?"

Xing Deli, who was sitting in the VIP seat, swallowed his saliva, looked at Lu Siyu beside him with shock, and couldn't help asking.

"I...I just heard it from others!"

At this moment, Lu Siyu was not very confident. After all, in her opinion, Sun Xiaoyan's act of spending over 100 million US dollars was too embarrassing, and it made her regret her previous behavior.

It seems that this classmate of mine is not an ordinary person. She can do this at any auction. How rich must her family be? Is it possible for me to get to know her?

The middle-aged man's face was gloomy. He stared at Sun Xiaoyan for a long time before he uttered a number through gritted teeth: "2 million US dollars."

At this time, the other bidders had already stopped talking. After the middle-aged man called out the latest price, everyone's target was Sun Xiaoyan, wanting to see if she would continue to follow suit.

Sun Xiaoyan smiled slightly, her cherry lips parted slightly: "5 million US dollars."

"Hiss..." There was a sound of gasps at the scene. Everyone looked at Sun Xiaoyan in shock, not quite believing the quotation they heard.

……

The middle-aged man stood up with a bang, his eyes seemed to be spitting fire as he stared at Sun Xiaoyan. After a while, his expression calmed down, he straightened his clothes, sat back in his original seat, and stopped talking.

Seeing that the bidding price had been settled, everyone, including the auctioneer, breathed a sigh of relief. The auctioneer picked up the gavel and shouted, "Now, this lady bids $5 million... Is there a higher price?"

When talking about the bidding price, the auctioneer's heart trembled. It was really high, 30 million US dollars, more than 5 billion Hong Kong dollars, and he could withdraw 5%. How much money was that!

The auctioneer did a quick calculation in his mind and was immediately shocked again. Oh my god! Nearly 2 million Hong Kong dollars, this... is really, amazing!

“3, 2,…”

When the auctioneer was counting down and he paused when he called 2, everyone's eyes fell on the middle-aged man, wanting to see if he would also stand up.

But to everyone's regret, the middle-aged man stared straight ahead, expressionless, and made no movement. The auctioneer licked his lips nervously, feeling a little regretful, but still called out the final number: "1."

"Bang!" As the gavel struck, the auctioneer's trembling voice rang out: "Congratulations to this lady for winning lot 123 for $5 million!"

As the saying goes, there are pearls and jade in front, and the wooden casket is behind.

With such an exciting auction of lot 123, it is naturally difficult for the subsequent lots to attract people's attention.

The best result for the dozens of lots that followed was only 2 million Hong Kong dollars, which made everyone lose interest and not have any interest at all.

As if noticing that people were no longer interested, the auctioneer sped up the auction significantly, selling all the remaining items in less than an hour.

Soon, the auctioneer left the stage and a host came on stage. He bowed to everyone and said, "To thank you all for your support of Christie's, Christie's is holding a thank-you banquet in the Skylight Ballroom on the 39th floor of the building. Everyone is welcome to join us!"

Because Sun Xiaoyan spent a lot of money at the auction, he successfully attracted the attention of Christie's, and soon a vice president of Christie's came to Sun Xiaoyan's seat.

The vice president will first take Sun Xiaoyan to handle the subsequent auction procedures. After all the procedures are completed, he can also take the internal employee elevator directly to the 39th floor to attend the subsequent thank-you banquet.

Sun Xiaoyan also noticed that all guests in the VIP seats had dedicated service and were taken to the 39th floor via several direct elevators, while guests in other ordinary seats went there on their own.

Looking at Sun Xiaoyan and her three companions being taken to the top floor by Christie's people like stars surrounding the moon, a hint of envy and jealousy was revealed in the depths of Lu Siyu's eyes.

The middle-aged man who was also sitting in the VIP seat looked at Sun Xiaoyan who was walking away, and a cold light flashed in the depths of his slightly narrowed eyes.
