Angel's Tear. Just the name alone was enough to make many rich people who still retained a romantic atmosphere hungry. As soon as the auctioneer announced the start of the bidding, many rich people in the audience made their bids.
The starting price was 50 million. In less than three minutes. The price was raised to 80 million. And it was still rising.
This Angel's Tear, whether it was the name, the meaning, or the object of imitation, was an irresistible temptation for women. Diamonds were a woman's best friend. The best of diamonds was simply a woman's family. Who would stand by and watch as their loved ones were taken away by others?
Looking at the scene in front of him, Minister Li patted Mister Zhao's shoulder and said with a smile, "Old Zhao. For this charity dinner, you really put in a lot of money. "
It was obvious that Minister Li was quite satisfied with Mister Zhao's arrangement. It was charity, especially when he was the leader. If the donation was too little, he would lose face. Now that Mister Zhao suddenly took out a priceless treasure with a market price of 50 million, of course, Minister Li was happy. Because this meant that from the beginning of the auction, Mister Zhao had donated an extra 50 million. And looking at the current situation, because Mister Zhao brought out this Angel's Tear. After the auction, he would at least donate 200 million.
"Working hard for charity. This is the awareness that every citizen who has received favors from society and the government should have, "Mister Zhao said in a dignified manner.
"Yes. I'm very happy that you have this kind of awareness. "Department Head Li smiled happily.
He was different from Lu Dashan. As a political figure, he had to show a good attitude because he often represented not only himself but also the government. If he was as careless and listless as Lu Dashan in everything, then he would definitely be in trouble. That would not only damage his reputation, but also the government's face.
"Since even Minister Li said so, it would be unreasonable for me to remain indifferent." Xiao Zheng raised his arm and smiled in front of everyone. "100 million."
As soon as he opened his mouth, the most intense reaction was Mister Zhao. Unconsciously, the corner of his mouth twitched. Then, as if the twitching was contagious, the corner of his eyes also twitched. But he knew that he should not show such an expression in front of everyone at this moment. Therefore, he quickly calmed his raging heart. He smiled and said, "Mr Xiao is very courageous."
Well … After the price reached 80 million, the speed of the price increase had obviously slowed down. At first, it was still an increase of three to five million. Now, it had become an increase of one to one million. But when it came to Xiao Zheng, he actually pulled out 20 million in one go. In other words, the price of this Angel's Tear had doubled after tonight's charity auction. It was really an honor.
Lu Dashan also took a sip of the liquor and cursed in a low voice, "You brat, do you really think my money is worthless? You dare to shout a hundred million? Even the fiercest bidding price outside is less than 90 million. "
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette with a smile and said, "I'll pay for it myself. I won't spend your money, Uncle Lu. "
"You have so much money?" Lu Dashan was surprised. "Don't tell me you're thinking of using Xiao Lin's money to bid for it and then giving it to her?"
"Am I that useless in Uncle Lu's eyes? Buying a gift for your wife requires her to pay for it? "Xiao Zheng said with a straight face. "To tell you the truth, I still have some savings. Although not much, it's enough to win this Angel's Tear. "
"Very courageous." Lu Dashan gave a thumbs up and joked. "When I was your age, my entire net worth was less than a hundred million."
"— —" Xiao Zheng curled his lips. "A hundred million in that era is almost catching up to ten billion in today's purchasing power. Uncle Lu, can we stop bragging? That's enough. "
"Haha." Lu Dashan laughed. "Fine. I'll stop bragging. I also feel that I've been too unrestrained recently. It's time to cultivate my character. "
After Xiao Zheng shouted a hundred million, most of the tycoons below the stage gave up on the idea of continuing the auction. First, they felt that the price was too high, and continuing the auction had lost its investment value. Second, they wanted to give face to Lu Dashan and didn't want to continue fighting with Xiao Zheng, whose identity was unknown. Only a few tycoons who wanted to give this gift to their loved ones or lovers struggled. After a few minutes, the price had been raised to a hundred and twenty million. There were fewer and fewer tycoons who continued to fight. Only a few tycoons who didn't care about money were still working hard.
At the end of the day, no matter how rich these tycoons were, they still had their uses. People often say that the richer the person is, the more stingy they are. This wasn't to say that they were stingy compared to ordinary people, but the higher their status, the greater their wealth, and the more they needed to spend. Ordinary people might only need to take care of their three meals a day. But they might have to take care of the three meals of thousands of employees. Unlike Xiao Zheng, who could spend a hundred million if he had it. If he had a billion, he could spend it all. Because without this money, it wouldn't affect his life at all.
"Uncle Lu. You're not as awesome as I thought. "Xiao Zheng took a sip of wine and smiled sarcastically.
"What do you mean?" Lu Dashan asked.
"I was brought in by you. The price has already reached a hundred and twenty million, and there are still people who dare to compete with me. It seems like they don't care about you at all. "Xiao Zheng joked.
Lu Dashan heard Xiao Zheng's personal attack and couldn't help but laugh. He retorted, "You were brought in by me, yes. But others don't know the specific relationship between us. Friends? Relatives? Or father-in-law and son-in-law? "
After a pause, Lu Dashan smiled and said, "You're going to have a substantial development with my daughter. Now, I just need to say something and no one will dare to compete with you. "
Xiao Zheng really suspected if Lu Qi 'er was Lu Dashan's biological daughter. Who would want their daughter to get married so much?
With a smile, Xiao Zheng said emotionally, "It seems like I can't count on Uncle Lu to stand up for me. I still have to rely on myself. "
After that, Xiao Zheng raised his hand again and ended the battle. "Two hundred million."
As soon as this was said, the audience was shocked.
From a hundred and twenty million to two hundred million. It seemed like Xiao Zheng's determination to get the Angel's Tear was unshakable.
After thinking about it for a while, everyone understood what was going on as well.
Didn't Lu Dashan have a daughter? Her age seemed to be similar to Xiao Zheng.
Mhmm.
It seemed like they really couldn't compete.
If Lu Dashan's precious daughter wanted something, no one would dare to take it away from her!
When Mister Zhao saw Xiao Zheng directly raise the price to two hundred million, his face turned green and red. He was indescribably angry. If it wasn't for Department Head Li sitting on the side, he might really have threatened Xiao Zheng and used force to stop his crazy bidding.
But it was too late now. The auction was over. Xiao Zheng spent two hundred million to buy a piece of stone. And Mister Zhao, because of Xiao Zheng's appearance, lost more than a hundred million in vain. More than a hundred million —
Tonight, Mister Zhao's loss was as high as three hundred million, all for some bullsh * t charity!
