The auctioneer was a pretty girl. She was wearing a sexy cheongsam that tightened her body, making her curves look exquisite and alluring.
As the next item was brought up, the girl started to introduce it. "This is a spittoon used by Empress Dowager Cixi. I don't need to introduce its value. Everyone here is a discerning expert, so I won't go into detail. The starting price for this item is one million. Let's start the bidding now."
Liu Xiaobei, what the f * ck! Liu Xiaobei was instantly dumbfounded. A f * cking spittoon used by a prodigal woman, and the starting price is one million?
"1.1 million."
"1.2 million."
"1.5 million."
What the f * ck? The bidding is so intense? Could it be that they were all a bunch of idiots? Liu Xiaobei lowered his head and covered his forehead. He didn't want to listen anymore.
But this was not the end. Continuous calls for bids came one after another until someone shouted 2.2 million. After that, no one else raised the price.
"2.2 million, going once."
"2.2 million, going twice."
"2.2 million, going three times. Sold. "
After the auctioneer shouted three times and no one raised the price, the auction was over. Liu Xiaobei wanted to see which idiot bought the spittoon, but there were too many people. He couldn't see who made the final bid.
"It should be our big pearl's turn soon. It's chapter 11 now.
The auction is about to end, "the black-silk lace girl said as she looked at the time.
"I heard that the last item is the finale. It seems like our big pearl is the most valuable item in the auction," Liu Xiaobei said.
"Yes, that's possible." The black-silk lace girl nodded and said.
As soon as the black-silk lace girl said that, the auctioneer said, "Today's auction is over. Thank you for coming."
"It's over? What's going on? "Liu Xiaobei was stunned. He looked at the black-silk girl in astonishment.
The black-haired girl also had a dumbfounded expression on her face.
"Are you kidding me? Have our pearls been auctioned? "Liu Xiaobei asked the girl in black silk.
"No, I'm not joking with you. We really haven't started filming yet." The girl said seriously.
"Did you miss it because you didn't pay attention?" Liu Xiaobei thought for a moment and asked.
"No! I didn't fall asleep like you did. Liu Xiaobei was watching me intently! There really isn't an auction, "the black-silk girl said.
"Motherf * cker! Could it be the auction house's doing?" Liu Xiaobei suddenly thought.
"I don't think so! If that's the case, they wouldn't have told us to attend the auction, but they did. It doesn't make sense, "the black-silk girl said.
"Where's the receipt from the auction house? Did you bring it? Liu Xiaobei, go ask them. If they want to take our pearls for themselves, we won't let them go, "Liu Xiaobei said.
At this moment, Liu Xiaobei was already angry. Could it be that the auction house wanted to take Liu Xiaobei's pearls for themselves?
"I brought the receipt. Let's go ask them," the black-silk girl nodded and said.
The people who attended the auction were leaving one after another. Liu Xiaobei and the black-silk girl also stood up and walked out with the crowd.
After leaving the auction house, Liu Xiaobei and Liu Xiaobei went directly to the appraisal room.
When they arrived at the appraisal room, the girl who wrote the receipt happened to be there. Liu Xiaobei slammed the receipt on the table in front of her. "Can you explain it to me? What's going on? "
"Oh, are you the ones who entrusted us to auction the pearls?" the girl didn't answer the question.
"Of course we are. Otherwise, why would we come back to settle the score with you?" Liu Xiaobei said.
"Here's the thing. Our auction house's CEO Liu wants to see you. Your pearls weren't auctioned today. She will give you an explanation. Please come with me. I'll take you there. CEO Liu is waiting for you! "the girl said.
Her words surprised Liu Xiaobei and the black-silk girl. They looked at each other.
"Are you going?" the black-silk girl asked Liu Xiaobei.
"Of course, there's nothing to be afraid of," Liu Xiaobei said. Liu Xiaobei immediately thought that the other party might have bad intentions. Maybe they would take Liu Xiaobei and the others to a secret place and kill them.
But Liu Xiaobei wasn't afraid of this. Liu Xiaobei had experienced this twice, but it was the other party who was killed. If the auction house did the same thing this time, Liu Xiaobei wouldn't hold back. He would kill them all.
Liu Xiaobei had already thought about it. This time, if the auction house was going to be disadvantageous to Liu Xiaobei and the others, there would definitely be a lot of people bidding. Because what they were doing now was too blatant, as long as it was a normal person, they would be on guard.
Based on this, the fact that they still did this could only mean one thing: they were already fully prepared.
However, even if they were fully prepared, they wouldn't have thought that Liu Xiaobei was a freak.
Under the lead of the girl, Liu Xiaobei and the others walked to the inner level of the auction house. Then, they got into the elevator and went straight to the 26th floor.
In the elevator, the black-silk girl held onto Liu Xiaobei's hand nervously. Liu Xiaobei gave her a reassuring look.
After exiting the elevator, they arrived at a very luxuriously decorated floor. Dogs. Here, Liu Xiaobei finally knew what it meant to be poor.
The floor was open, giving people a very good visual experience.
However, it was divided into several areas in a very orderly manner. The one that attracted Liu Xiaobei's attention the most was the fitness area. There was a full set of fitness equipment. Dogs. How much would that cost?
Liu Xiaobei didn't have much time to look around. The girl led Liu Xiaobei and the others to a room. Liu Xiaobei noticed the sign on the door: President's Office!
Liu Xiaobei immediately understood. This should be the most important office in the auction house.
The girl knocked on the door and said in an unusually gentle voice, "President, the two people who entrusted the pearl auction are here."
"Let them in!" The reply was a very metallic voice of a man.
The girl turned around and made a gesture to invite Liu Xiaobei and the others in. At the same time, she said, "You can go in."
From the looks of it, she only wanted Liu Xiaobei and the others to go in. She didn't plan to go in.
He took a step forward and was about to push the door open when it suddenly opened.
At the same time the door opened, a burly figure walked in. He was wearing a black suit and black sunglasses. Liu Xiaobei immediately understood that he was a professional bodyguard.
Looking at the room, there was another bodyguard in the same suit standing at the door.
There was a woman sitting at the desk inside. She looked to be about 24 or 25 years old. She was very beautiful, and not only was she beautiful, but she also had a very classy temperament.
She just sat there quietly, giving off a feeling that she couldn't be violated.
The first time Liu Xiaobei saw her, he instantly understood a word — aloof!
Yes, that was it. At this moment, she was also looking at Liu Xiaobei and the girl in black silk.
"Come in, you two," she said indifferently.
Liu Xiaobei didn't stand on ceremony with her. No matter how aloof, rich, and classy she was, it had nothing to do with him. This time, he came up to question them. He didn't come up to act like a coward.
"We said that we are here to participate in the auction, but where are our pearls? You better give me a clear explanation, or else … "Liu Xiaobei said very rudely.
