"350 million!" Huang Rongjin said.
"No. 12 VIP bids 350 million!" The auctioneer said with some surprise.
"360 million!" No. 14 gritted his teeth and said.
"380 million!" Huang Rongjin was also angry. He wants to compete with me?
Sure enough, this price made No. 14 shrink back. No one responded for a long time.
"No. 12 VIP bids 380 million, 380 million going once, 380 million going twice, 380 million going thrice, sold!" The auctioneer's hammer fell, and the crisp sound ended the competition. Huang Rongjin's mouth showed a smile.
(Everyone remember the name of this minor character. He will appear again in Macau in the future. Note: This person is not an antagonist.)
"Congratulations to No. 12 VIP for winning Mr. Liu Weishan's' Four Horses Galloping '." The auctioneer congratulated him.

"Xiao Ya, isn't that ring your favorite jewelry?" In No. 5 VIP private room, a cool man said to the beauty next to him, "Why did you take it out to auction?"
Shu Ya looked at the man next to her with some disgust. She didn't want to answer this question, but because of Uncle Zhong's face, she had to answer, "Is it? Maybe. "
This cool man was the young master of the Huizhong Auction House, Zhong Xiaotian.
"Hehe, you can rest assured. I will definitely get that ring for you in a while. Don't worry." Zhong Xiaotian saw Shu Ya frowning and thought she was reluctant to part with the ring.
Shu Ya sighed slightly and didn't speak.

"Sister Xiao Qing, why don't we leave first? Anyway, some of the highlights are over. The rest is selling some celebrity items. It's okay not to watch. " Yang Ming said impatiently, "I think godfather and godmother are a little sleepy. Let's go back and rest early."
"No rush. Let's sit for a while." Liu Weishan shook his head and looked at his watch. "There is still more than half an hour before it ends. It is not bad to leave early."
Yang Ming saw that Liu Weishan had spoken, so he had to sit there and watch the auctioneer introduce some celebrity's rubbish items one by one. Yang Ming didn't really care about these celebrities. Yang Ming still preferred the older generation of singers, as he felt that their songs were more meaningful. Many of the current singers sang songs that Yang Ming was not used to.
"The next item to be auctioned is a piece of jewelry donated by the popular Miss Shu Ya, an iron ring." The auctioneer said, "Miss Shu Ya will donate all the proceeds from this ring to Project Hope."
"What a show!" When Yang Ming heard this, he couldn't help but snort. He actually donated an iron ring? He didn't know what this celebrity was thinking. How could she use such a cheap item to fool people and even shamelessly say that she would donate the proceeds from the auction to Project Hope?
"Put on a show? Hehe, you can take a look in a while. This ring may be sold at a sky-high price! "Xiao Qing smiled.
"Why? Is that celebrity called Shu something very famous? "Yang Ming asked casually.
After Xiao Qing heard it, she looked at Yang Ming as if she was looking at an alien. "Brother, are you serious? You don't even know the superstar Shu Ya? "
Shu Ya? Yang Ming was stunned. The name was quite pleasing to the ear! Shu Ya, Shu Ya, Suya? It's actually quite similar to the name of my first girlfriend. However, Yang Ming didn't think much about it and asked, "Is she very famous?"
"That's right. She is now the most popular person in Asia!" Xiao Qing said, "The current high school students are very fond of her."
Yang Ming still understood the meaning of "Ha". The word "Ha" originated from a popular term in Taiwanese youth culture. It meant that they were very enthusiastic and liked it to the extent of craziness. For example, "Japanese" and "Korean" were popular terms in recent years. It first came from Taiwanese. It referred to the blind worship, pursuit, and imitation of Japanese popular culture. The word "Japanese" was originally a Minnan dialect. It meant heatstroke due to the sun's toxic exposure, which meant that it was "sun poison." "Japanese" and "Korean" referred to a group of people who enthusiastically pursued the popular entertainment culture of Japan and Korea. Even their dressing, thinking, and behavior imitated it.
However, many people now used the word "Ha" on a certain celebrity. For example, "Ha" XXX meant that they liked XXX and were XXX's fans.
Yang Ming shook his head. However, he was really interested in seeing how much this broken ring could be sold for!
The full picture of the ring was projected on the big screen. Yang Ming's pupils suddenly contracted! He took a deep breath. Could it be? Is there such a coincidence in the world?
The design of this ring is actually … Yang Ming shook his head again. It's impossible. After so many years, this ring should have been forgotten long ago. Maybe it's just a similar design. Yang Ming dismissed his own thoughts.
However, his attention was focused on the ring on the screen. Yang Ming fell into deep memories …
Not long after, the price of this ring actually soared from the starting price of one hundred dollars to one hundred thousand dollars! It was enough to show how popular Shu Ya was.
"Sister Xiao Qing, can I participate in the auction?" Yang Ming suddenly asked.
"Oh?" Xiao Qing was stunned, then she looked at Yang Ming with a smile. "What's wrong, Yang Ming? Are you also attracted by the big star and want to join this competition?"
"I haven't even seen what she looks like!" Yang Ming smiled bitterly. "I just think that this ring is very similar to a ring that I once bought. Later, I gave that ring away. Now, I just want to buy it back as a memory. I have no other thoughts."
"Hehe, so that's the case!" Xiao Qing shook her head. "I really don't understand you. It's just a broken iron ring. Since you don't want to please the big star, why are you spending such a high price? But it's up to you. You are now a billionaire. Buying this thing should be a piece of cake, right? If you buy something, the auction house will deduct it from the transaction price. "
Yang Ming nodded and pressed the bid button in front of him. In fact, bidding could be completely done by computer, but many people still liked the pleasure of raising the card, so even if there was a bidding system, they didn't use it. However, Yang Ming participated in an auction for the first time. He didn't develop any habits, so he directly used the bidder.
"One hundred and fifty thousand." After Yang Ming pressed the bid button, he spoke into the microphone.
"One hundred and fifty thousand US dollars, No. 7 VIP bids one hundred and fifty thousand US dollars!" The auctioneer didn't expect that in the VIP private room, there was someone who was interested in this iron ring!
It should be known that except for Young Master Zhong in the No. 5 private room who was Shu Ya's fan, the people in the other private rooms were hardcore collectors. They simply disdained to participate in such an auction!
Even Zhong Xiaotian was shocked after hearing it. He thought that when others raised the price to eighty thousand US dollars, it was already very bad * ss for him to bid one hundred thousand US dollars. He didn't expect that the private room on the side actually bid one hundred and fifty thousand US dollars!
Motherf * cker, you dare to make me look bad? 'Who is this?' Zhong Xiaotian was furious. Good, you want to compete with me in terms of wealth? This auction house is all mine!
"Two hundred thousand!" Zhong Xiaotian said angrily.
Shu Ya also fell into contemplation. She didn't expect this ring to be so valuable. It was sold for a sky-high price of two hundred thousand US dollars!
"Two hundred and fifty thousand!" When Yang Ming thought about having more than three hundred million in hand, he was rich and overbearing! So, he didn't have so many scruples.
"Three hundred thousand!" Zhong Xiaotian gritted his teeth and said. In fact, this was all in US dollars. It was more like Hong Kong dollars! He hadn't inherited the family business yet. His pocket money was limited. This three hundred thousand could be said to be his hard-earned capital.
When he looked back and saw Shu Ya's stunned expression, he thought that she was stunned by his bid and was admiring him. Thinking of this, Zhong Xiaotian finally felt that it was worth it!
But he didn't expect that the person in the private room next to him didn't intend to let it go!
"Four hundred thousand." Yang Ming reported another price. He wasn't determined to get it now, but he was enjoying the feeling of bidding now! Since he had already bid, then he should be extravagant for once. Yang Ming thought so. At least I can be generous for once!
Zhong Xiaotian was completely put out. Four hundred thousand, he didn't have this money even if he was beaten to death. Three hundred thousand was barely enough. Now, Zhong Xiaotian really had an impulse to go crazy.
"Four hundred thousand US dollars, No. 7 VIP bid four hundred thousand US dollars! Four hundred thousand US dollars going once, four hundred thousand US dollars going twice, four hundred thousand US dollars going thrice, sold! " The crisp sold sound was drawn under the auctioneer's hammer, drawing a perfect end to this auction item.
However, when the item was sold, Shu Ya's heart seemed to be broken. She didn't have this feeling before, but now, when the item became someone else's, Shu Ya felt that something was missing in her heart. Her whole person was empty!
It was a feeling of reluctance!
