Lu Wen was also dumbfounded. After a while, he said with uncertainty,
"This … this can't be dyed, right?"
The Ice Lantern Haworthia looked so beautiful that it almost looked fake, like a piece of art.
Liang Qichao, Lu Ping, and Ling Qingxue looked up at the same time and said in unison,
"Nonsense!"
Ling Qingxue snorted and said,
"Don't talk nonsense if you don't know anything. This is obviously an extremely rare mutated ice lantern!"
Lu Ping also shook his head slightly and said,
"Lu Wen, according to my experience, there's nothing wrong with this Ice Lantern Haworthia. It's even more beautiful than the pictures online."
Because of Ling Qingxue, these people had done some research on succulents. Liang Qichao even opened a succulent cultivation base.
In fact, Lu Wen also vaguely felt that this Ice Lantern Haworthia was not fake, but he couldn't help but say those words. He didn't expect to anger everyone.
Xia Ruofei didn't care and still had a faint smile on his face.
At this moment, Liu Minghao looked at Xia Ruofei and then at Ling Qingxue. He rolled his eyes and said,
He rolled his eyes and said, "Little Xia, you're selling this ice lantern, right? How about this? I'll pay 80,000 yuan! Why don't you sell it to me? 80,000 yuan for a pot of succulents. You're making a lot of money. You probably didn't get that much even after being a soldier for so many years! "
When Liang Qichao heard this, he immediately jumped up and said,
"Liu Minghao, what do you mean? I contacted Mr. Xia. If you want to make a deal, you should do it with me! "
Lu Ping also said,
"Liu Minghao, you're a bit unkind! 80,000 yuan? How dare you call out a price of 80,000 yuan? This is the price of an ordinary ice lantern. Mr. Xia's is a mutated variety! How about this, I'll pay 100,000 yuan. Mr. Xia, are you willing to part with this treasure? "
Lu Ping looked like a gentleman, but how could these rich second-generation heirs be simple? His words also tricked Liu Minghao. He pretended not to hear Liang Qichao's words and was still preparing to compete.
"You …" Liu Minghao was exasperated. "I bid 120,000!"
"130,000! Sell it to me! "Lu Wen also joined in the fun.
These people all wanted to buy this basin of Ice Lantern Haworthia as a gift for Ling Qingxue and win her favor. Naturally, they were unwilling to back down.
Moreover, this Ice Lantern of the highest quality was worth this price.
"You guys are too shameless!" Liang Qichao cried. Then, he looked at Xia Ruofei pitifully and said, "Mr. Xia, Blood Wolf Guru … You promised to sell it to me …"
Before Xia Ruofei could say anything, Ling Qingxue spoke first.
"One million! I want this ice lantern. Which one of you wants to fight me for it? "
Liang Qichao and the others were dumbfounded. Xia Ruofei didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Before he came, he had roughly checked the price. Although the Ice Lantern of the highest quality was valuable, it was definitely not as exaggerated as one million. It was not even one-fifth of one million.
The reason why Ling Qingxue shouted out such a price was obviously not just because she liked this ice lantern.
In fact, Ling Qingxue just saw that Xia Ruofei's clothes were not more than 200 yuan. Moreover, he had just retired from the army and didn't have a job. It could be said that he was very down and out. Therefore, she had the idea to help Xia Ruofei.
However, she was smart and naturally knew that she had to take care of a man's self-esteem. She was thinking about how to get the best of both worlds! Then, Xia Ruofei took out this basin of Haworthia and prepared to sell it.
Thus, Ling Qingxue quoted an exaggerated price without even thinking about it.
Liu Minghao quickly said,
"Qingxue, no matter how good this Ice Lantern Haworthia is, it's not worth one million. I know you like this basin of Haworthia. I'll buy it for you later … "
Lu Ping also pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and said,
"Qingxue! This price is a bit too high … "
Ling Qingxue lightly snorted and said,
"I like it, I'm willing. It's hard to buy what you like with money. What can you do about it?"
"This …" Liang Qichao also didn't expect that a good thing would turn out like this. He couldn't help but look at Xia Ruofei for help.
Xia Ruofei's eyes were like torches. He had already seen the situation clearly. Moreover, he more or less understood Ling Qingxue's thoughts. However, Xia Ruofei could only accept her good intentions.
He had no impression of Ling Qingxue at all. How could he accept such a large sum of money? To put it nicely, this was called cheating on one's feelings. To put it bluntly, this was the act of a gigolo living off a woman!
Therefore, Xia Ruofei thought for a while and said,
"Director Liang, since everyone is so enthusiastic, then let's bid! The highest bidder wins, fair and square! However … "
Speaking of this, Xia Ruofei looked at Ling Qingxue and said with a smile,
"Ling Qingxue, don't participate in the bidding!"
At first, Liang Qichao felt that Xia Ruofei's words were useless. Ling Qingxue had already bid one million. How could they bid? Moreover, who would dare to bid against Ling Qingxue? Fortunately, Xia Ruofei changed the topic, and Liang Qichao's worry turned into joy.
However, Ling Qingxue was unhappy when she heard this. She pouted and said to Xia Ruofei,
"Why can't I bid? It's not fair! "
Liang Qichao and the others couldn't help but be stunned. They had known Ling Qingxue for so long, but this was the first time they saw Ling Qingxue act like a little girl. They couldn't help but be envious and jealous.
Especially Liu Minghao and Lu Wen, their eyes were about to spit fire.
Xia Ruofei looked at Ling Qingxue helplessly and said, "Stop fooling around.
"Stop fooling around, I'm doing something serious! If you like succulents, I'll look for some for you later … "
When Ling Qingxue heard this, she immediately turned from anger to joy and said,
"Then you have to keep your word!"
"Of course, of course …" Xia Ruofei said perfunctorily.
Liu Minghao couldn't stand it anymore and quickly said,
"In that case, let's start the bidding! Little Lu, 130,000 yuan, right? I'll bid 150,000 yuan! "
Liu Minghao added another 20,000 yuan.
In fact, this price was already very high. The most precious types of ice lanterns on the market were only worth about 100,000 yuan.
"160,000 yuan!" Lu Ping gritted his teeth and added another 10,000 yuan.
"170,000 yuan!" Liang Qichao was not to be outdone. He was the owner of this place, and he hadn't bid yet!
Lu Ping shrugged and said,
"I quit!"
He had always been a calm person. Now that the price had exceeded the actual value of this ice lantern, he decisively chose to withdraw.
The money of these rich second-generation heirs didn't grow on trees. Their fathers were indeed billionaires, but they didn't have any businesses of their own. Basically, they only received pocket money every month. If they took out a hundred or two hundred thousand yuan at once, they would have a hard time this month.
Lu Wen thought about it and shook his head to indicate his withdrawal.
Liu Minghao sneered slightly and said,
"180,000 yuan!"
He didn't get along with Liang Qichao, and the two were competitors. Therefore, he wanted to compete.
Liang Qichao snorted and said,
"Then I'll bid 200,000 yuan!"
Liu Minghao's face changed slightly and said angrily,
"Liang Qichao, are you crazy? This ice lantern isn't worth that much money! Are you trying to compete with me? "
"Is it crazy to bid higher than you?" Liang Qichao said disdainfully, "Qingxue just bid 1,000,000 yuan!"
Liu Minghao was shocked and quickly looked at Ling Qingxue. Sure enough, Ling Qingxue's face had turned ugly.
He hurriedly explained,
"Qingxue, I … I didn't mean it like that …"
Ling Qingxue said coldly,
"If you want to buy it, then continue to bid. If you can't afford it, then give up. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
How could he tolerate this?
What was the most important thing in front of the woman he liked? Of course, it was the dignity of a man. Tens of thousands of yuan was nothing!
Liu Minghao suddenly shouted with red eyes, as if he was injected with chicken blood,
"250,000 yuan! I'll bid 250,000 yuan! Liang Qichao, do you dare to increase the price? "
Xia Ruofei knew that Ling Qingxue deliberately provoked Liu Minghao's competitive spirit just now so that her ice lantern could sell for more money. She didn't expect Liu Minghao to be so cooperative and stupidly increase the price by 50,000 yuan.
Xia Ruofei looked at Ling Qingxue somewhat reproachfully. Ling Qingxue seemed to have a tacit understanding and winked at Xia Ruofei, revealing a mischievous expression.
Liang Qichao also began to feel awkward. The price was at least twice the actual value. It would be unwise to increase the price further. However, the problem of face was also very important!
At this time, Liang Qichao saw Xia Ruofei secretly give him a look. His heart suddenly quivered and he came back to his senses.
He laughed and said,
"Liu Minghao, a gentleman doesn't take what others like. Since you like this ice lantern so much that you're willing to spend twice the price to buy it, then I'll fulfill your wish!"
With that, Liang Qichao shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he gave up the competition.
Liu Minghao also calmed down. He couldn't help but feel a trace of regret in his heart. This price could buy a lot of precious succulents.
Ling Qingxue said at this time,
"Since no one is bidding, Liu Minghao, you can pay!"
"Ah? I … I don't have that much cash with me! "Liu Minghao hesitated.
"I have a POS machine here!" Liang Qichao laughed and said, "You can swipe my card here, and I'll ask the finance department to transfer the money to Mr. Xia's account!"
Liu Minghao knew that it was impossible to deny, so he could only take out his card resentfully and watch Liang Qichao transfer 250,000 yuan with heartache.
Liang Qichao asked Xia Ruofei for his card number and walked out of the office to find the finance department of the Immortal Meat Food Stall. After a while, the finance department transferred 250,000 yuan to Xia Ruofei's account.
"Thank you, Mr. Liang," Xia Ruofei said.
"Haha! You're welcome! " Liang Qichao laughed heartily and said, "It's really a pity that I didn't buy this top-grade ice lantern this time. I hope there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future!"
"That's for sure." Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
Among these rich second-generation heirs, except for Lu Wen and Liu Minghao who were always against him, Liang Qichao and Lu Ping were quite good. Ling Qingxue was needless to say. She looked at him with stars in her eyes.
Liu Minghao looked at Xia Ruofei and Liang Qichao who were talking happily, and his heart felt like it had eaten a fly.
His gaze fell on the Ice Lantern Haworthia that he had spent a sky-high price of 250,000 yuan to buy. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly carried the Haworthia to Ling Qingxue and said:
"Qingxue, this top-grade ice lantern is for you. I hope you like it."
Ling Qingxue just glanced at the Yu Lu coldly and said,
"If I want it, can't I buy it myself? I appreciate your kindness, but you can keep it for yourself! "
Although Ling Qingxue's temperament was cold, at least her words were decent. But today, when she saw Liu Minghao picking on Xia Ruofei, she didn't hold back.
Liu Minghao was dumbfounded. He spent half a month's pocket money to buy this thing, and he wanted to win the favor of a beauty! How could it be like this? Isn't this a waste of money?
Xia Ruofei saw this and laughed and said,
"Mr. Liang, since the transaction has been completed, I won't disturb you anymore. Goodbye!"
"I'll send you off!" Liang Qichao quickly said.
"No need, you accompany your friend! I'll go out by myself. "Xia Ruofei said.
Then he gave Liang Qichao a look and said,
"I'll contact you later."
Liang Qichao immediately understood and nodded.
So Xia Ruofei walked towards the door.
At this time, Ling Qingxue suddenly said,
"Ruofei, I'm going back, let me send you off!"
