This passbook had accompanied this poor student through high school and into university. Now, this passbook was filled to the brim. However, this student was not willing to change it. Instead, he had kept it all the way until the last page!
He was now able to work as a tutor and didn't need the help of his fellow villagers anymore. However, he had copied down all the numbers in the passbook, preparing to pay them back one by one after he graduated from university.
One had to admit that this passbook had a lot of meaning, and it fit the theme of this auction very well. And so, this passbook was bought by an entrepreneur who often donated to poor students for a high price of one million kuai. He was going to keep it when he got back.
The items at the end were also very meaningful. Of course, there were some really valuable items like jewelry and antiques, but most of them were donated by the professors and staff of the school.
The auction continued in an orderly manner, and the rich people had a tacit understanding with each other. They wouldn't compete unless it was something they really liked. The final price was also related to the financial resources of their respective companies. Some items were sold for tens of thousands, while others were sold for hundreds of thousands or even millions. It didn't matter how much it was, it was a sign of love.
"The next item is a piece of art. It was donated by Lin Yi from the biology and medicine major. It's a piece of art he made himself. The starting price is five thousand kuai." It was Tai Weiliang who introduced it, not Yushu. Yushu didn't need to introduce it, since what Lin Yi donated was just a normal item.
The carving was exquisite, but Lin Yi wasn't a master sculptor. It would be very expensive if it could reach a few thousand kuai. As for the starting price of five thousand kuai, that was purely to give the rich people a chance to show their love.
Zhao Qibing was sitting beside You Pan Hu and Kang Zhaolong, waiting for an opportunity to buy something to qualify for the masquerade party. But it was still early, and the auction was only halfway through. He wasn't in a rush. He just wanted to see if he could get something he liked. Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?
But, when he heard the host say that the next item was donated by Lin Yi, he raised his card and shouted before Tai Weiliang could even show the details of Lin Yi's gift. "Five million!"
"Wah-"
The crowd went into an uproar. Such an impatient bid. And a bid of five million at the start! This was the first time this auction had started! Even if it was a donation, everyone would raise the price step by step. Who would directly shout such a high price at the start?
Moreover, the more expensive items were usually things that had some sort of sentimental value to them, or things that were worth a lot of money. Souvenirs like Lin Yi's were actually one of the least popular items. The starting price was low, and it was mainly reserved for small bosses who didn't have much money, or alumni who'd just returned to their alma mater. Everyone looked at Qibing as if they were looking at an idiot when he said five million.
But …. Qibing, however, didn't care at all. He was still casually holding up his auction sign, looking at the guests who were looking at him with disdain. He thought to himself, You people don't know that five million in exchange for a broken leg once, it's really worth it!
Tai Weiliang was shocked as well. It took him a while to react. Did he miss something? Wasn't this just a normal piece of art? How could it be sold at such a high price?
Could it be something good? But ….. he didn't see anything special? If he knew that this was so precious, he would've put it at the end. He shouldn't have taken it out so early …..
But, what Tai Weiliang didn't know was that if he really put it at the end of the auction, it wouldn't be sold at such a high price. The reason was simple. Zhao Qibing wouldn't wait until the end of the auction. He would definitely buy something before the end of the auction.
Even if they did see Lin Yi's item in the end, they'd already have something else in their hands, and wouldn't bid five million straight away. Even if they wanted to get on Lin Yi's good side, they'd only bid two or three million.
"Five million, this gentleman from number seventy-four has bid five million. Is there anyone who wants to bid higher?" Tai Weiliang asked expectantly. After all, Zhao Qibing raised the price to five million so suddenly. From his point of view, this might really be something good. There would definitely be people competing for it! He was very satisfied with the result because someone else had made a bid!
"Six million!" A voice sounded. This person was Fatty Lai!
Lin Yi didn't expect someone to bid five million for a piece of art he casually made. Originally, this item was for Fatty Lai. Although Fatty Lai wasn't a businessman in Donghai, he was from the nearby Songshan city. He was also a well-known company, so it wasn't surprising that Fatty Lai would come here.
As for Fatty Lai, he didn't expect Zhao Qibing to bid first. But, this was what Lin Yi told him to bid on Lin Yi's art. So, Fatty Lai still bid.
"Fuck!" Zhao Qibing froze. He didn't expect someone to compete with him for a piece of art! From his point of view, if it wasn't for Lin Yi, he wouldn't pick it up even if it was thrown in front of him, let alone spend money to buy it.
But, he had already bid. If he didn't compete and Lin Yi wasn't happy, he wouldn't be able to do anything if he didn't break his leg! After all, Lin Yi could tell the school that someone wanted him to break his leg. This suggestion was too difficult. He couldn't do it!
And when that happened, the school would definitely support Lin Yi. After all, breaking someone's leg wasn't something that he could do. It was considered intentional injury.
And so, Zhao Qibing continued bidding. "Eight million!"
To the hidden heir of the Zhao family, this amount of money was just a small amount of money. If he could master the thousand legs, that would be the most important thing. Old Master Zhao was also very supportive of his matter, so money was not a problem.
Tai Weiliang was dumbfounded. There was really someone competing for this? Not only that, but Qibing had even raised the price even higher? Was this thing really that good?
In fact, it wasn't only Tai Weiliang who was dumbfounded. Everyone else was dumbfounded as well! Especially the bosses. There were many people with good eyesight, but they couldn't see what was so good about Lin Yi's art.
"Eight … Eight million, is there anyone who wants to bid higher? Mister number 74 bid eight million … "Tai Weiliang came back to his senses and quickly asked.
