The rebirth of the wealthy, the daughter of the richest man turns evil
Chapter 67 Auction
The auction house is located in the city center and is the largest auction house in Jing'an. It is an ancient and magnificent building. Under the night sky, the golden lights outline its majestic outline, as if it is the most dazzling pearl.
A luxurious auction is about to be held here tonight.
On the red carpet aisle, men and women in custom-made suits walked lightly, their faces filled with anticipation and excitement, and the air was filled with the slightly intoxicating scent of high-end perfume.
Wen Shujin was wearing a black dress, her skin was as white as snow, like a dazzling pearl, beautiful and noble.
Wen Shujin was wearing 12-centimeter high heels, walking briskly with her head held high, like a queen. All eyes seemed to be focused on her.
Bi Mingzhe, who was behind her, almost couldn't keep up and admired the eldest lady in his heart.
The auction has not started yet. The first floor is the cocktail party, and the second floor is the auction site. The people who come are either rich or noble. It is not much different from the cocktail party at the Wen family.
As soon as she entered, Wen Shulin came up to her with her hand raised: "Big sister."
Wen Shujin turned to look at Wen Shulin: "Alin is here too."
Wen Shulin smiled and said, "I want to see if there are any items to give to my father and mother."
Wen Shujin chuckled: "Alin is really filial, unlike my dull brother who doesn't know how to please his parents."
Wen Shulin's face froze for a moment: "How could that be? It's just A-lu's personality. Besides, how can I compare to A-jie in terms of my status in father's heart?"
Wen Shujin smiled and didn't respond.
"Miss Wen." The person who came was Yang Jialiang: "How come you have time to come here?"
"I received the invitation and came to see if there were any items that caught my eye."
Yang Jialiang nodded upon hearing this: "Then Miss Wen, you've come to the right place. Today I have a set of jewelry that I think will suit you very well."
Wen Shujin raised his eyebrows: "Then I must take a good look at it."
Wen Shulin saw that the two were chatting happily: "Sister, I'm going to meet a client."
Wen Shujin nodded: "Go ahead."
Wen Shujin was still chatting with Yang Jialiang when Huangfu Zheng came over with a glass of wine.
Wen Shujin was a little surprised: "Why is Mr. Huangfu here too?"
Huangfu Zheng chuckled: "This is my Huangfu family's auction, and my father asked me to take charge."
Wen Shujin just remembered that this auction house was one of the Huangfu family's assets.
The auction session soon arrived. Wen Shujin was arranged to sit in the front row. Unexpectedly, he saw an acquaintance, Huangfu Haoran. He was wearing the uniform of an officer and was observing his surroundings.
Other policemen were guarding in several directions. They all had guns in their hands and sharp eyes, observing the situation around them. They would take action immediately if something went wrong.
It seems that the auction house specially invited people from the police station this time.
Wen Shujin keenly noticed a woman who seemed to be a little abnormal. She was always observing the surrounding layout intentionally or unintentionally.
Maybe it was because her soul had been reborn, but she became very sensitive and could observe the emotions of the people around her very clearly. Wen Shujin had a bad feeling in her heart.
She smiled and pulled Huangfu Zheng, who was about to leave, and said, "Mr. Huangfu, won't you sit with me for a while?"
Huangfu Zheng looked around and sat down next to Wen Shujin: "What happened?"
Wen Shujin frowned: "Sixth row, counting from the left, there's something wrong with that woman."
Huangfu Zheng saw that Wen Shujin didn't look like he was joking, so he nodded and said, "I'll tell my cousin."
As soon as Huangfu Zheng left, the host came on stage and the auction officially began.
He is an elegant middle-aged gentleman, wearing a tailor-made tuxedo, with a deep and magnetic voice, as if every word can touch people's hearts.
"Dear guests, welcome to Dongxin. Tonight, we will witness the ownership of a series of rare treasures. They are not just objects, but also the crystallization of history, culture and art." The host introduced in a gentle tone.
The first lot to be auctioned was a set of jewelry: "This set of jewelry is called Moonlight Dream."
When this set of jewelry was slowly presented on the auction table, the entire venue seemed to be shrouded in a layer of soft moonlight, and all eyes were involuntarily focused on it.
The core of the set is a necklace inlaid with countless tiny diamonds, with a rare moonstone in the center. Under the light, it is like the whisper of moonlight, mysterious and thought-provoking.
Hanging from the bottom of the necklace is an exquisite pendant shaped like a rising crescent moon, inlaid with a dazzling sapphire, which contrasts with the moonstone in a breathtakingly beautiful way.
The auctioneer continued, "This set of gems was created by a master, and this gem is also very rare in the world. The starting price is one million, and each increment must not be less than ten thousand."
Soon someone called out 1.5 million, and then another voice, without hesitation, quoted 2 million. The price was like a wild horse running wild, and each bid was accompanied by exclamations and gasps.
Three million, four million, five million...
As the price climbed, the atmosphere in the venue grew increasingly tense.
Wen Shujin glanced at Bi Mingzhe and said, "Get it. Under 50 million, feel free to bid."
Bi Mingzhe immediately raised the sign: "Ten million." If you like something, you should buy it.
"This gentleman bids 10 million!"
Another wealthy woman directly bid: "Eleven million."
Bi Mingzhe raised his sign again: "Twelve million."
The wealthy people who liked this set of jewelry naturally did not want to be outdone, and the price quickly reached 20 million.
Bi Mingzhe raised his sign again: "Twenty-one million."
The price of this set of jewelry was too high at the auction, and many people gave up. Only one woman seemed to like it very much and was unwilling to give up, so she bid up to 25 million.
Wen Shujin raised his sign directly: "Twenty-six million."
The two of them competed with each other, and finally Wen Shujin won the jewelry set for 30 million.
The woman looked at Bi Mingzhe very unwillingly, and was surprised to find Wen Shujin sitting there. Only then did she realize that it was Wen Shujin who bid.
The next item was quickly brought up. It was a piece of porcelain that didn't look very valuable.
"This is modern porcelain, produced in the porcelain capital. The starting price is 100,000, and each bid must not be less than 1,000."
Wen Shujin recalled his past life. That thing should have been a golden-carved Sun Bird, a cultural relic from the Shang and Zhou dynasties thousands of years ago. However, its later owner probably didn't want people to know that it was a treasure, so he covered it with a layer of porcelain, and outsiders just thought it was porcelain.
It was only when the servant accidentally broke it while cleaning that the true appearance inside was revealed.
Wen Shujin recalled the appearance of that thing and felt that this porcelain should not be it: "Take a picture of it."
Bi Mingzhe understood: "One hundred thousand."
"Two hundred thousand."
"Three hundred thousand"
When Wen Shujin's bid reached 800,000, the voice of the person who had just been fighting with her for the jewelry was heard.
"Nine hundred thousand."
Bi Mingzhe frowned: "One million." This porcelain is not worth so much money at all. The man did it on purpose.
"One million and one hundred thousand."
Wen Shujin raised his hand: "Let her have it."
Bi Mingzhe nodded, and afterwards, whenever Wen Shujin wanted something, the woman would compete with him as if on purpose.
The next lot to be auctioned was a landscape painting. "This was painted by a famous Tang Dynasty poet. The starting price is one million, and each increment must not be less than ten thousand."
When everyone heard this, they were shocked. If this thing was real, it would be priceless.
Wen Shujin asked Bi Mingzhe to bid.
Just as she expected, the woman started bidding as soon as she saw Wen Shujin bidding, and the price quickly soared to eight million.
Wen Shujin curled his lips, it seemed like he was going to have some fun with her.
