Luc Lafontaine was a good-looking Gallic, but unfortunately, he was not tall. In Europe, where people were generally tall and big, it greatly affected his personal image.
As the host, he gave the opening speech before the auction started.
He first welcomed the heroes from all walks of life.
In order to show his impartiality, he not only listed the representatives of the Darkness Palace, the Plantagenet Empire, and the Eye of God, but also complimented the representatives of the small forces such as the Teutonic Knights. In the end, he even gave a welcome speech to Lin Dong, the uninvited Mr. Wood.
Then, the host, Luc Lafontaine, shared with the guests his experience of hosting the auction. He claimed that it was not easy to host the auction. Apart from the funds and personnel, he also talked about the difficulties he had encountered in collecting antiques all over the world, as well as the various details of the preparation. His humorous opening speech was interspersed with local customs and interesting stories from time to time. Although Lin Dong did not understand what he was saying, he could tell from the laughter of the guests that he was a very eloquent politician who was good at adjusting the atmosphere.
"This guy is so smooth, he doesn't offend anyone!" Ye Qianru found that Luc Lafontaine was better than White Belle in terms of interpersonal skills.
"Of course, didn't you see the guests he invited? Even the celebrity models are of a higher quality than last time! Compared to him, Bai Bei Li is simply imitating his words and actions! "Lin Dong heard this and laughed.
"Which supermodel do you like?" Ye Qianru naturally understood this. White Belle was just a dog raised by the Plantagenet Empire, but Luc Lafontaine was someone who could dominate the Darkness Palace, the Plantagenet Empire, and the Eye of God. Of course, he was capable. She changed the topic to the supermodel to test Lin Dong's thoughts.
"I'm not interested in the foreign woman!" Lin Dong was speechless. Liking the movies of the stars did not mean liking the people!
Besides, what if she insisted on following him no matter what if he rode on her?
She would not be able to go to the Cultivation World in the future!
Westerners and Easterners had different bloodlines, and their souls were also different. It was impossible for Westerners to cultivate in the world. At the very least, Lin Dong had never found such an existence! Therefore, Lin Dong decided not to provoke Caucasian women from the West. He tried his best not to provoke even mixed-blood women. No matter what they looked like, he would ignore them. After all, it was a little heartless to just leave them in this world … Lin Dong's future was in the Cultivation World, or even a higher world. He didn't want to leave, and there was still the shackles of the mortal tribulation!
Moreover, many Caucasian women had different personalities and ideals. When they liked someone, they would love to death. When they didn't like someone, they would immediately turn around and throw themselves into someone else's arms. Before marriage, they didn't care who they had sex with. Anyway, they would do it if they wanted to, as long as it was in the name of love.
This concept was different from that of the oriental women that Lin Dong liked, so Lin Dong was not willing to provoke those women who did not belong to him.
"Really?" When Ye Qianru heard this, she was very happy and felt much more relaxed.
She was actually a little afraid.
If some supermodel came to seduce him, and Lin Dong was willing to eat fast food, how could she explain it to Cheng Mingge and others when she went back? Moreover, she herself was also unwilling to accept it! Now when she heard Lin Dong say that he was not interested in Caucasian women, she suddenly felt reassured. It was good that he was not interested. Now she was finally safe!
"Inexplicable!" Lin Dong was very speechless. You don't think that I will just hook my finger and do it with her, do you? This idea is too shocking!
"I was wrong. It's good that you didn't!" Ye Qianru hurriedly pretended to be a little maid and apologized to him with her pink fist. Of course, it was good that he didn't, but it was hard to say that men were creatures. Although they had better ones at home, sometimes they couldn't help but pick wildflowers when they saw them. In short, they had to continue to be strict.
Lin Dong, who was not interested in the auction, waited for the opportunity to get angry.
He focused his mind on the food that was served.
Left and right.
Ye Qianru was secretly happy in her heart. It was estimated that he was the first person in the world to participate in the auction like this!
Finally, it was the Rabbit Country's turn to auction their item. Below the stage, the security guards carefully lifted a huge earthenware onto the stage. After the white veil was completely removed, the faintly discernible item's true appearance was revealed. This was a ceramic horse that was more than one meter high, with four hooves standing on the ground. Its mane was neatly combed, and the horse's body was strong and handsome. The whole ceramic image was lifelike, like a real divine horse.
"Look, it's starting. This is the ceramic horse that Lyu Kelafondan worked hard to get from the country! It's the first time I've seen such a huge ceramic horse! "Ye Qianru hurriedly gestured to Lin Dong, who was engrossed in eating, to take a look.
The host below was talking non-stop, "This ceramic horse is from the country of Huaxia. It is a treasure from a thousand years ago. After scientific testing and the experts of Huaxia, it was from Xiyao about 1300 years ago. At that time, the country of Huaxia was' Tang ', a country with a strong military and persistent expansion. At that time, Tang was very powerful, and it was the economic and cultural center of the Far East at the same time. At that time, the rich and powerful were very fond of ceramics. Even after death, they were willing to record all kinds of deeds or achievements during their lifetime with ceramics. Among their funerary objects, the famous ceramic horse was this kind of ceramic horse. Of course, even in Huaxia, it is extremely rare to excavate such a huge ceramic horse. It can be said that this is a rare treasure that can't be found in ten thousand! Its body is round and plump, completely in line with the artistic direction of plump and strong at that time. Its colors are bright, mainly yellow, ochre, and green … "
Lin Dong looked.
He almost spat out water on the spot, "Damn, this is Tang Sancai!"
Ye Qianru was a little confused. She blinked her big eyes, "It's Tang Sancai, what's wrong with it?"
Lin Dong was sweating in his heart, but he didn't blame Ye Qianru. This sea witch grew up abroad and learned foreign culture and education. Naturally, she didn't know what was happening in the country, and there were many things in the country that even the rabbit people didn't know. He put down his knife and fork, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and patiently explained to her, "Tang Sancai is a dark artifact!"
"Dark artifact?" Ye Qianru still didn't understand.
"Dark artifacts are used to be buried with the dead. This thing can't be placed at home, understand? It doesn't matter if the foreign devils like to place it at home, but if the people in the country do this, it will be a heavenly thunder. Tang Sancai is not placed at home, so don't bid for it, don't waste this money! " Lin Dong was really afraid that this girl would get hot-headed and bid for the Tang Sancai, then move it to the Misty Forest Celestial View Villa.
"Then I'll call Griffon quickly!" Ye Qianru thought about it and quickly called Griffon to stop bidding.
"Please rest assured, I'll bid for it and give it to you as a gift!" Griffon had already made a bid, and it wasn't a low price, hoping to scare off the competitors.
"Pat your head, I don't want it, this is for the dead!" Ye Qianru quickly scolded him, and at the same time, she was really afraid that Griffon wouldn't bid for this inauspicious thing, or else this trip to Europe would be unlucky.
"Don't want? Ah? Why? "Griffon didn't understand this Eastern taboo at all.
"Don't ask why, just don't take it!" Ye Qianru immediately hung up the call.
Now she was worried that Griffon would be one more person to bid for it.
It seemed that the Kami didn't like this good-looking pottery horse very much, otherwise he wouldn't have let the sea witch call … Griffon was worried for a long time. If it was a normal day, Griffon might have won it at a high price. But today, because of Lin Dong's presence, the organizers knew the national vanity of the rabbit people, and this pottery horse must be won back. So just as the host was about to drop the hammer, the representative of the God's Eye immediately raised his hand, and the representative of the Plantagenet Dynasty, who pretended to compete, also raised his hand to increase the price, pretending to compete in full swing, intending to join forces to cheat Lin Dong.
Lin Dong didn't care about them!
They continued to eat.
Even the members of the small and medium-sized forces below looked back frequently, wanting to see Lin Dong's expression.
Someone else looked at the box on Griffon's side. They guessed that Lin Dong didn't say anything, he would definitely send Griffon as the representative to catch Griffon and increase the price!
Griffon was also a bad guy. He guessed that the other party would join forces to cheat Lin Dong. Just now, he was too anxious to flatter Lin Dong, and now he finally had a chance! He stood up and bid, with a look that said, "Don't compete with me!"
The tycoon Prince Hussain saw so much excitement and thought that the pottery horse was really a good thing, so he immediately came out to compete.
In the exciting heartbeat.
The gryphon called out several high bids.
But the representatives of the Eye of God and the Plantagenet Empire continued to bid, determined to cheat Lin Dong into an abyss that he couldn't climb out of … Even Philip of the Dark Palace couldn't stand this kind of behavior. He stood up and said loudly, "I see that Mr. Griffon really wants this pottery horse, why don't everyone give way to him? The auction is a platform for competition, but we hope that everyone will have their own most satisfactory harvest. I think this is the intention of Mr. Lucafontaine in holding this auction! "
Philip meant to give this pottery horse to Mr. Wood, Lin Dong. Everyone could see that Griffon was bidding for Lin Dong.
When Ye Qianru heard this, she knew that it was not good. If the representatives of the Eye of God and the Plantagenet Empire really gave way, then Griffon's troublemaking was equivalent to holding a big stone and smashing it on the foot … She immediately took out her mobile phone and called Griffon, "Stop bidding now, or I'll kick you out!"
"It doesn't matter if I bid again, I'll make those shameless guys bleed!" Griffon also knew that he was walking a tightrope. If he didn't walk well, he would fall into a pit. But if he walked well, the God of Heaven would definitely look at him differently.
"If you really bid for it, you'll eat the whole pottery horse for me!" Ye Qianru was very annoyed.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely succeed!" Griffon wasn't sure, but he planned to take the risk because the representatives of the Eye of God and the Plantagenet Empire were too much of a bully, and he really couldn't stand it.
It's not impossible to cheat people, but it's not like this!
The representative of the Eye of God was called Blackhand Jesse. In this venue, he was ranked according to his strength. He listened to Blade Philip's words and laughed sinisterly. "Mr. Philip's character is worth learning from, but we are also very sincere in obtaining this huge pottery horse. My living room just happens to lack such a pottery horse as decoration. So I'm sorry, I think it should belong to me. My next price is 18 million euros! "
Philip was very angry when he heard that Blackhand Jesse didn't give him face.
But he didn't lose his poise on the surface, "Well, I wish you all the best!"
On the other side, one of the representatives of the Plantagenet Empire, Fox, said sweetly, "I also want such a beautiful decoration in my living room, so my price is 18.5 million euros! The rest is up to you, handsome Griffon, I believe you won't let me down, right? "She said to Griffon, but her eyes were provocatively glancing at Lin Dong's box.
The middle and small forces liked to watch this kind of fight between the superiors, because the fiercer the fight, the more benefits they could get from the middle.
Griffon took a deep breath. Whether he could perform well, whether he could make the God of Heaven happy, depended on this.
He pretended to raise his hand anxiously, "20 million euros, I'm not short of money, don't compete with me!"
At the mention of money, the tycoon prince couldn't sit still.
Prince Hussain immediately raised the price to attract everyone's attention, "I bid 21 million euros! I also happen to need a gift for my father's 60th birthday! Pottery is his favorite thing, I think this huge pottery horse will satisfy him! Mr. Griffon, I know you're rich, but you're not the only one in this world. After the final bidding, no one can be sure who it belongs to! "
The tycoon prince was always unhappy because Griffon had made him choke with 2 billion euros.
How much is a pottery horse worth?
20 million euros!
Damn, you dare to declare ownership of it for 20 million euros? What do you think I am? There is sand under my feet, but under the sand is all black gold. You want to fight with me?
He didn't know that as soon as he raised the price, Griffon was relieved. What if he didn't raise the price and got something that the God of Heaven didn't like for 20 million euros? That would be terrible! Now, with this tycoon prince messing around, at least he was safe! As for whether he could trick the Gorse Dynasty and the Eye of God, it would depend on how ruthless they were. The more ruthless they were, the more miserable they would be!
"21.5 million!" The representative of the Eye of God, Jesse, immediately raised the price. In his opinion, it was still too early to compete. If Blockhead wanted to get the pottery horse back, how could he not pay some money?
"22 million euros!" The white Fox of the Gorse Dynasty looked provocatively at Lin Dong again.
Everyone looked at Lin Dong to see how he would respond.
20 million euros was not a small amount of money.
But for a real tycoon, it wasn't a big amount of money either. Would Mr. Wood endure it or respond to this naked provocation?
"25 million!" Lin Dong, who was eating, suddenly stood up and raised the price in English with a Dong Mountain accent.
"Clap, clap, clap!" The audience applauded for Mr. Wood. Sure enough, the strong should not be provoked!
"As the tall, rich, and handsome Mr. Wood has raised the price to 25 million euros for the first time. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to him. Mr. Lucerfontaine just told me that he is willing to donate half of this bidding for charity! I thank you on behalf of the charity, Mr. Wood. You are really the most handsome man! Now, Mr. Wood has raised the price to 25 million euros. Is there anyone else who wants to raise the price? If not, then I will drop the hammer. This is the first time, this is the second time … Is there anyone else who wants to raise the price? Is there anyone who wants to raise the price higher than Mr. Wood? Mr. Griffon? Mr. Jesse? Miss Fox? Or Prince Hussain? If no one raises the price, then I will drop the hammer … 25 million euros. Is there anyone who wants to raise the price higher than 25 million euros? Soon, this pottery horse will belong to Mr. Wood. Is there anyone else who wants to raise the price? "The host desperately delayed the time, hoping that the war would continue to burn.
Ye Qianru was so nervous that she clenched her fists. She was even more nervous than when she was fighting against an expert of the same level.
She knew that Lin Dong's bid at this time was to trick his opponent.
But would his opponent be fooled?
If not, then she would have to pay 25 million euros, and it would be a big joke!
The reason why Prince Hussain did not bid was that he did not want to anger Lin Dong. He was still thinking about the gene potion, so he did not intend to compete with Lin Dong. He was a tycoon, yes, but he was not a fool. Lin Dong stood up to bid. If he still followed, then he would never get the gene potion!
The reason why Lin Dong stood up to bid, in addition to tricking his opponent, was mainly to force the tycoon prince to back off, and directly trap the Eye of God or the people of the Plantagenet Dynasty!
Only then would it be interesting!
The price of 25 million euros was not low. The representatives of the Plantagenet Dynasty and the Eye of God also quickly discussed it.
Their judgment was that Lin Dong wanted to use this trick to suppress their momentum and take away the pottery horse. For Lin Dong, he was not short of money, so there was still room for him to dig a hole!
"26 million euros!" The white Fox continued to increase the price. After she finished, she provocatively poked her head towards Lin Dong and said, "I've heard that Mr. Wood is very rich, but I want to tell you that this is Europe, not China. If you want to get something back from us, you have to get our consent. Like Mr. Griffon said, we are not short of money!"
"Phew!" As soon as Griffon heard her voice, he immediately sat on the sofa and felt relieved. Fortunately, the white fox responded!
"28 million!" Who knew that Lin Dong would immediately increase the price.
He stared back at the white Fox with his electric eyes, which made her tremble all over. She almost shrank away, but under the gaze of the audience, she still persisted.
She forced herself to calm down and immediately quoted another price, "28 million and five hundred thousand!"
Lin Dong signaled Ye Qianru to calm down and stared at the other side coldly, "29 million!"
"What's the point of bullying a woman!" The Eye of God's black-handed Jesse came out to support the scene. He sneered and quoted, "29 million and five hundred thousand!"
Everyone thought.
Lin Dong's next bid would be 30 million euros.
Unfortunately, Lin Dong was destined not to let them get what they wanted. He would never fall into this pit, because 30 million was definitely a pit that he could not climb out of. The other side would stop at this point … Lin Dong sat back and continued to eat as if nothing had happened!
The excited Ye Qianru saw that he was playing so casually. She couldn't help but rush over and hug him.
She didn't care that his mouth was full of oil and kissed him hard.
Lin Dong's reaction made the representatives of the Eye of God and the Plantagenet Dynasty dumbfounded. Hey, you don't want to bid? I've taken off my pants, but you don't want to play? What's going on?
