Hidden Assassin
Volume 3 Cohabitation Era - Volume 6 Under the Blue Sky Section 145 Auction
"Is Mr. Joseph coming to China for business? Or for tourism?"
"Heh, I have a small business to discuss. By the way, accompany someone to relax."
"Mr. Joseph's wife?"
"No, but I would very much like her to be my wife."
"Oh, that's touching..."
Talking one after another, walking into the venue, the auction has already started. At this time, most of the people gathered here are celebrities from Jianghai City. The seats are not full, so they found a seat in the middle for the drunk Fang Yusi to sit. Next, Joseph said goodbye, and wanted to turn around and go out to find someone. When he turned around, he seemed to find that the person he was looking for had already walked in, so he smiled and waved, and sat down beside him.
With dim eyes open, Fang Yusi looked back, and saw two women, one big and one small walking, the older one vaguely was the blond woman who patted her back in the bathroom, and the woman who followed her The little girl was dressed neutrally in a white shirt and jeans, and wore a small blue cap. She looked neat and tidy, but the expression on her little face was obviously a little unhappy.
"Hi, Marilyn, Heidi, I was just going to see you."
"Thank you." The blond woman nodded with a smile, and sat down next to her, while the little girl sat on the other side.
"I saw the items in this auction today. There are a lot of good things sold, Heidi, maybe there will be something you like."
"Hmph." Joseph's voice was soft, but the little girl looked at him angrily while resting her chin. "I'm not interested. Originally, Mommy and I had to wait for someone, but he called and broke the appointment, so we came to have a look."
"Oh? Did Heidi make friends here?"
"None of your business!"
Although the conversation between the three was in English, Fang Yusi could hear clearly from the side. This behavior of "eavesdropping" on the side made her feel a dark sense of pleasure. The masculine Joseph wanted to woo the woman named Marilyn. Regardless of the other party's perception, the little girl named Heidi obviously doesn't like this person pursuing her mother very much. However, the person they were waiting for didn't come either? Hmph, this feels so good. May there be lovers in the world... all can't become family members...
Crying, sad, this is our world, what you want... you can never get it...
The effect of alcohol magnified the pessimism and discomfort in his heart, Fang Yusi thought while looking at the auction ahead. The little girl rested her cheeks angrily, and Joseph and Marilyn were talking about each other.
Regarding this auction, Fang Yusi had read the leaflet a few days ago, and the reason why he came here was because there were indeed many good things for sale on it. However, the auction was only halfway through at this time, and many things hadn't been taken out yet. Joseph on the side is obviously rich, and occasionally raises the sign on his hand. Talking and laughing with the blond beauty beside him, the bid of hundreds of thousands was also relaxed and freehand. After nine o'clock, as a pair of expensive Swiss couple watches were sold at a high price of more than 800,000, the atmosphere in the auction room was also It started to get hot.
After the couple's watch, there is a set of incomparably precious pearl jewelry. Watching this set of jewelry including rings, necklaces, and earrings appear on the big screen. Fang Yusi sat upright in the seat, her eyes seemed a little blurred. woman. It is always irresistible to these shiny things. In the publicity of the auction, apart from an unannounced mysterious item, this jewelry is the most expensive, and it is also it that attracts Fang Yu to take a look. It is still impossible for her to spend a lot of money to buy these luxury goods.
Before the price was called two million, she lightly raised the sign in her hand, and even though she was overtaken, she felt a little regretful, and then relaxed a little. In the showbiz, you can often hear the news that a certain actress accepted a gift from a certain rich man. She used to scoff at it, but now that her boyfriend is gone, she can't help but fantasize in her heart, if anyone can It would be nice to give this set of jewelry to her as a gift.
The price exceeded 2.5 million, 2.8 million, and it was still rising. Fang Yusi leaned on the chair, watching Joseph next to him raise the sign again and again, joking with the woman next to him, a blonde named Marilyn The woman was also looking at the jewelry on the screen, and there was a hint of appreciation and expectation in her smile... It's really shameless, such a woman can only cheat men's money - Fang Yusi thought again.
Not long after, the jewelry was sold at a price of 3.7 million, but the buyer was not Joseph next to him, but a playboy from the Huang family in Jianghai City. This man was called Huang Bingwen, the youngest brother of Huang Bingxiang and Huang Bingxing, aged thirty He is many years old, but he has been doing nothing and wandering around in the flowers. In the eyes of many women, he is naturally one of the most valuable diamond kings in Jianghai City. After getting it, he stood up with the beauties beside him and smiled and gestured to the surroundings, looking rather hateful.
"This set of jewelry is not the best today. I got the inside story, and there will be better things later."
Joseph smiled and explained to the woman beside him. While talking, a big question mark appeared on the big screen in front of him, and then the auctioneer smiled and signaled for silence. The staff came from behind pushing a small platform.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in the coming time, we will bring you the biggest surprise at today's auction. This is a top-quality diamond necklace produced by Tiffany, please take a look..." As the auctioneer opened the small platform The red cloth covering the top and the flickering picture flashed on the big screen. The women in the entire auction hall were almost suffocated at this moment, staring straight ahead, Fang Yusi's drunkenness disappeared in this moment trace.
"...This new law-cut necklace uses two hundred and twenty spherical diamonds, with a total weight of two hundred and fifteen carats. It is bright and clear. Thirty-seven trapezoidal diamonds are used at the buckle joint, with a total weight of 6.25 carats. This string of necklaces implements the concept of multi-functional jewelry. The length of the chain can be adjusted freely, and it can also be disassembled. Used as a bracelet... appraised by a professional appraiser, the starting price is 13.2 million..."
Following the auctioneer's explanation, the entire auction hall fell into whispers, obviously because this jewelry was too expensive, which caught everyone off guard. The women's eyes were dazzled by the light of the diamonds, while the men began to size up their wallets. It can be predicted that there should not be many bidders for this jewelry. .
The introduction of this necklace probably took more than ten minutes. It was close to ten o'clock when the bidding finally started. The first person to hold up the sign was a fat man who was a new upstart in Jianghai City. It is said that his net worth exceeded ten. However, due to his poor character, some people in the upper class don't like him very much. What this guy likes to do most is to spend a lot of money to disgust people.
"Thirteen and a half million."
"13.6 million." The second bidder was Joseph next to him, but when he held up his placard, Marilyn next to him seemed hesitant to speak.
Hypocrisy... I feel embarrassed to accept it, I feel sorry for the money, and I don't want to say I want it, but I can't bear to say I don't want it, it's so hypocritical... Fang Yusi's teeth itch with jealousy, and he cursed inwardly. All her wealth is enough to buy such a necklace, if anyone can give it to her...
"13.8 million." The third bidder was Lu Guangyi from the Lu family in Jianghai City. After raising his placard, he even glanced provocatively at the fat upstart. As one of the five great families in Jianghai City, the current helm of the Lu family is called Lu Guangren. Lu Guangyi is his second younger brother. The first time I came back, it was said that I didn't quite get along with the upstart, so it was obvious that I was using money to get it right now.
"Fourteen million!"
"14.2 million!"
"14.5 million!"
In the auction field, basically only these three people bid in turn. Although it seemed deserted, every bid made the faces of the people around them twitch, and every bid made Fang Yusi feel that the people around him This man is really attractive.
It's a pity that the strong dragon can't overwhelm the local snake. Although most of the Salier family's money comes from illegal business such as drug trafficking, Joseph is just a manager. He originally wanted to buy something good to please Marilyn, but unexpectedly it finally came out. It was such a big guy. When the price reached seventeen million, he finally sighed, stopped raising his card, and smiled apologetically at Marilyn. A pang of regret welled up in Fang Yusi's heart. I feel a little happy again. Sure enough, in this world, what I want is often not available.
With Joseph's withdrawal, the situation in the auction field became a confrontation between the two sides. Both sides shouted higher prices one after another without showing any weakness. Soon, the price exceeded 20 million. And it climbed to a higher number, but the time interval between each bid became longer. Obviously, the two of them have also begun to consider whether it is worthwhile to spend tens of millions to show off once.
In terms of strength, the Lu family seems to be much stronger than that nouveau riche, but for that fat man. The fight was all about one breath, so after the price exceeded 24 million, this round of confrontation still showed no sign of stopping. Fang Yusi looked around nervously in her seat, and the large sum of money had already aroused her emotions. When the voice of "25 million" sounded, she heard the little girl next to her shout in surprise: "Jiaming!"
At this moment, she no longer had any impression of the name, but was shocked by the shout, she still looked to the side, and then she was slightly taken aback: that boy. Isn't it the one who sang "only-you" in the rehearsal at Sacred Heart College? Unpleasant memories flashed in her mind, and then her eyes were drawn to the money war ahead.
On this side, Heidi took Jia Ming's hand. He rapped on the back of his hand bitterly: "You! Finally! Finally! Come! Here! Mommy and I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Hehe, I apologize, I apologize, a friend encountered a very unpleasant thing, I want to accompany her." His eyes swept over Fang Yusi, who was three seats away, and Jiaming's gaze stayed on Marilyn's face for a moment, Both sides smiled heartily: "Uh, is there an auction? Is there something good, oh. It's a beautiful necklace."
"Yeah, it's so beautiful." Heidi didn't feel much about the millions of pearl jewelry. However, when the tens of millions of diamond necklaces came out, her eyes couldn't help but be attracted. Jia Ming took her hand and smiled, and said softly: "Then... as an apology for my lateness, I will buy it and give it to you." How are you?"
This sentence was not heard by Joseph, but Marilyn who was next to him vaguely heard it clearly, and quickly shook her hand and said, "No, it's so expensive." Heidi also smiled and said, "Yes, it's so expensive. I can understand some of the prices they yell, it’s more than 20 million, you, accompany me to find cotton candy to eat, and I’ll let you go.”
Seeing that the little girl was sensible, Jia Ming stretched out his hand to touch her head, and immediately, Heidi became angry again: "Gentlemen, don't touch other people's heads, I'm not a child anymore!" She stretched out her hand to open Jia Ming's hand, Immediately, Jiaming strangled her neck mischievously, took off the blue cap on her head, and touched her hair until it was in a mess before she would stop. After hitting Jia Ming a few times, the angry Heidi stared at Jia Ming, as if she was about to bite someone at any time.
When it comes to having a bad personality, Heidi is no better than Jia Ming. At this moment, she leaned over her body indifferently: "Hey, you like that necklace, Marilyn, too?"
After tidying Heidi's hair, Marilyn shrugged, Jia Ming smiled, saw that Joseph over there had already watched over, leaned into Heidi's ear and said, "Little girl, does your mommy have an auction sign? "
"I'm not a little girl, I'm too lazy to talk to you!" Heidi glared at him, then couldn't help but picked up the sign from her mother's seat and handed it to Jia Ming.
"It's not for me." Jia Ming smiled and whispered a few words in Heidi's ear. Joseph looked at Jia Ming suspiciously. As a core member of the Salier family, he naturally knew that the last time Marilyn China was rescued by a powerful mysterious person. This time I took Marilyn back to Jianghai City, and I also wanted to find that person. I asked a lot of things on the sidelines before, but both women, big and small They were very vigilant and refused to reveal anything, but after arriving in Jianghai, the first person they contacted was a student? Three years ago he was a child...
At this moment, the bidding price on the auction house has reached 27 million. After hearing Jiaming's words, Heidi widened her eyes and confirmed it again. Then she called the brand to her mother and whispered in her ear. After finishing speaking, Marilyn stared at Jia Ming with wide eyes, and Jia Ming just nodded with a smile. Not long after, Marilyn looked at Jia Ming and smiled helplessly. It seemed like a tolerant mother finally agreed to an unreasonable request of the child.
In front, the nouveau riche suddenly gritted his teeth, held up a sign, and shouted: "30 million!" In an instant, there was an uproar in the auction hall, and three million was added at once. Obviously, he had to compare with the Lu family, Fang Yusi Taking a deep breath, she nervously looked at Lu Guangyi, feeling extremely excited. If both parties bought this necklace for her, she would probably faint right away. Then, she heard the next bid.
"Fifty million."
The voice is flat and strange, because it is a foreign female voice. After the faint numbers came out, the entire auction house was a little quiet, and even the auctioneer above seemed to be sure whether he had an auditory hallucination. The asking price was naturally not from Lu Guangyi. At that moment, there was a brief blank in Fang Yusi's mind. She turned her head slowly, and her eyes glanced at Joseph. The blonde woman over there put down the number plate in her hand, and then turned her head to the side, looking at the boy named Gu Jiaming. He pursed his lips and smiled. .
