However, the thoughts in Yunzheng's heart at this time, in the eyes of others, looked quite different.
Originally, he and Gu Yan were young, and in the Yanjing circle, they both knew the details, and after watching it for a few years, they were naturally surprised. But now that it's far away in Myanmar, and it's the stone gambling auction house with the most mixed fish and dragons, it naturally seems that the two of them have tender faces. Rather, he looked like the young son of a rich family who came out for a stroll. And Yun Zheng's meticulous observation, for them, also turned into a curious look around.
"Young master, don't be in a hurry to start, the water is deep here!" The attendant who first guided Yun Zheng and Gu Yan saw that Yun Zheng seemed to have a goal, and whispered a word of persuasion. Logically speaking, he is an employee of the auction house, such words should not come out of his mouth. However, Yunzheng's first impression was too good. Every time the attendant met his gentle and beautiful eyebrows, he couldn't help but worry about him.
But Gu Yan next to him couldn't help frowning, and gave the attendant a cold look. This one glance made him feel cold from head to toe, and he even swallowed what he was about to say later. There was just one thought in my heart, I felt that this person's aura was a bit too scary.
"Gu Yan." Yun Zheng called Gu Yan helplessly, and stretched out his hand to pinch the back of his neck. Since it was outside, Yun Zheng didn't get too intimate. But even so, Gu Yan's ears turned red quickly. The charming temperament just now melted in an instant, and he changed back to the obedient and obedient little milk dog in the past.
When Yun Zheng saw this, the smile on the corner of his lips became more gentle. Pulling Gu Yan's hand, Yun Zheng sat down on the chair with him, and then turned away and said to the attendant: "Thank you, we just have a look."
"Well, then take your time. Call me if you need something." The attendant said, and stepped back sensibly.
And Yun Zheng didn't mean to answer either. In the past few years, Gu Yan has become more and more pampered and arrogant by him, and the reasons for jealousy have become more and more bizarre. Although it is not enough to be jealous when others look at me more, but it is not the same. As a result, Yun Zheng often has the illusion that he is some kind of great heartthrob, who can charm people just by swiping his face.
But even so, Gu Yan's jealousy is not a burden to Yun Zheng, but rather like a silent love between the two of them. It's also a bit like Gu Yan's way of coquettishly begging for a kiss.
But after all, the occasion is not suitable, it is better to restrain yourself, otherwise, you should pull this coquettish little milk dog over and give him a nice kiss.
However, Yun Zheng thought so in his heart, and the eyes that fell on Gu Yan's lips showed his thoughts clearly. As for Gu Yan's already blushing ears, as well as the heat that made his heart tremble, they never subsided. It didn't get better until after the auction started.
—
Although the location is different, the auction objects are also different. It is possible that most of the people who came to participate in the auction were so-called rich people. Therefore, the auction went smoothly, even if the bid was raised, there was no smoke.
But Yun Zheng and Gu Yan never made a move, they seemed like the kind of people who came to have nothing to do to join in the fun. Therefore, after the filming started, those curious eyes that fell on them from time to time also gradually disappeared. But it wasn't until the seventeenth rough stone appeared that Yun Zheng saw more interest in it.
It is a rough stone from the old pit in Myanmar. The reserve price is marked, four million.
It was the one that the system told Yun Zheng to take no matter what. But by coincidence, when this rough stone appeared, the atmosphere of the whole venue became very different. Even a few who looked like veterans were also eager to try.
However, this sense of anticipation is mainly due to the origin of this rough stone. Myanmar old pit.
Generally, the large emerald gravels produced in Myanmar that have been mechanically weathered and transported by river water to river valleys and river beds are called "old pit jade" or "children". However, the rough stone produced in this old pit is different from other rough stones in its inscrutable mystery. This rough stone can be said to be of rare good quality. Leaning against the outside, there is a layer of misty green. It's quite a bit of an announcement to the world, as if buying it will definitely increase the bet.
Moreover, the pricers of the auction house have always had a very good eye. Since they dared to set such a high starting price, it proved that this rough stone was still worth a gamble. For a while, many people in the auction house had an idea in their minds. But even so, when the auctioneer called out the starting price, everyone was still cautious and didn't immediately follow up.
Instead, Yun Zheng took the lead and directly added one million: "Five million."
Yun Zheng's voice is gentle, with a natural sense of tranquility. Coupled with Gu Yan who was leaning on the chair beside him and drinking tea casually, he was also so handsome that people couldn't take their eyes off it. Even in the eyes of people who are used to the two of them in the Yanjing circle, they would be stunned for a while, let alone in such a place, they would appear even more eye-catching. Many people's sights showed a bit of surprise. I think they look good. But immediately after, someone who was also from the Hua Kingdom recognized their identities.
Isn't this Gu Yan and Yun Zheng? I haven't heard that the Yun family or the Gu family have the idea of developing in the jade circle. Is it just for fun this time, or does it represent some omen
Many people pondered in their hearts, and their expressions became solemn. In the past few years, the name of Yunzheng has already been known to all walks of life. The young man is in power, but he has a clever and ever-changing mind, and now he is a well-known master in the investment circle. As long as Yun Zheng takes a fancy to him, there is no one who will not make money. Coupled with the identity of a master of metaphysics and his superb wood carving skills, not only is it highly respected by the younger generation in the circle, but it is also very detached in the mouths of the older generation.
And Gu Yan should not be underestimated either. The several big moves after returning to the country showed his already treacherous and unpredictable wrists to the fullest. Compared to Yun Zheng's unexpectedness, Gu Yan gave people the feeling of being a wolf. The kind of inevitability to win after staring at it, and the toughness to control it no matter what means, made many people unable to even have the courage to become his enemy.
Coupled with the fact that the two are always together, there is probably no one in the Huaguo circle who doesn't know them. So for a while, no one came out to bid with Yun Zheng.
But even so, no matter how famous Yun Zheng and Gu Yan are in Huaguo circles, after leaving their own territory, the degree of recognition is far from being as high as in China. In addition to this kind of auction, there was a sense of gamble, so after Yunzheng raised the high price, the competitive spirit of those foreign rich businessmen also rose, and some people immediately continued to increase the price.
"5.1 million." The first to call out the bid was a woman, her voice was not loud, even a little soft. But judging from the emerald beads around her neck, she should also be an expert. And he is very optimistic about this piece of jadeite.
But Yunzheng was determined to win, and he didn't even intend to increase the price slowly, and directly called "six million."
Raising the wine glass at hand, Yun Zheng gestured to the lady apologetically, Yun Zheng is not interested in jadeite, and normally would not win people's love, but this time the situation is special, he must get this rough stone .
And the lady also saw what he meant, sighed, and withdrew from the auction.
But more people were still aroused by Yun Zheng's bidding method. Sure enough, not long after, someone shouted again: "Six and a half million."
The price was increased again, but this time it was not an increase of one hundred thousand and one hundred thousand, but a direct call of five hundred thousand. And a man at the table next to this person also made an offer, as if he wanted to compete with him.
"Seven million."
Now, many people were startled by this number, and the atmosphere became tense. This is just a rough stone, and it is still unknown how many rough jadeite stones are inside. The original asking price of 4 million was already high, but now it has become 7 million. Even the auctioneer was shocked.
Because their auction house, since the establishment of the bank, has sold the most expensive rough stone for around seven million yuan. Moreover, the rough stone that was purchased for seven million yuan was actually half-opened, almost the same as the jadeite that was bought directly from glass.
But this one is not the case now, it is just a whole piece of rough stone, no one knows what will happen inside after opening it. But even so, such a high price was still called out, which can be said to be very appalling.
But Yun Zheng watched the two confront each other, but calmly raised the price tag in his hand, "Eight million."
They actually added another one million, and everyone was in an uproar, looking at Yun Zheng's eyes, something was not quite right. In the eyes of those who don't know Yun Zheng, eight million is not a small number. Even if Yun Zheng is a young son from a wealthy family and has no concept of money, he should understand what eight million means.
As for those who knew Yunzheng, they had a different idea. Yunzheng never missed out, and there must be something in the rough stone that would allow him to pay a high price. There are a few quick-witted people who have already begun to think carefully about whether to fight. But after all, he was overwhelmed by the number and was unwilling to make a move.
The wealthy foreign businessman who was competing before glanced at Yunzheng, gritted his teeth and shouted: "8.5 million!"
He was red-eyed by Yun Zheng's high price, and even thought that this was done on purpose by Yun Zheng. After all, what kind of diluted rare treasures can be worth 8 million yuan? Yun Zheng's way of raising the price by a large margin is not deliberately confusing the water, but what is it.
On the other side, the rich businessman from Huaguo, who had bid with him from the beginning, also hesitated because of this price. He didn't ask for the price immediately, but stood up and said to Yun Zheng: "I have always admired Young Master Yun, if I can find a beautiful jade and offer it to me, I wonder if Young Master Yun would like to have a meal and chat with you?"
This sentence made Gu Yan's face suddenly turn cold. But Yun Zheng first patted Gu Yan's hand comfortingly, then shook his head apologetically at him: "I'm afraid it will be difficult, I don't have much free time recently."
"Then we have to wait until next time." The man sighed regretfully after hearing this, and withdrew from the auction.
But Yunzheng didn't intend to give up, but the price increase this time made him a little hesitant. Yun Zheng really had a little impression of this rough stone.
In her last life, she was once in the limelight. At that time, the asking price was 9 million. So Yun Zheng raised the price so quickly at the beginning, trying to deter some people from the price and withdraw from the bidding. But now, it still shouted more than 8 million.
But if you add more, you will lose money. Sighing, Yun Zheng was a little uncertain about paying attention.
Seeing this, Gu Yan next to him asked, "Isn't it just for this, why didn't you ask for a price?"
"I always feel like I'm going to lose money!" Yun Zheng sighed, feeling a little depressed.
"Then it's mine." But Gu Yan shook his head and offered an offer: "Ten million!"
"..." Now, everyone in the auction house was dumbfounded. And the rich businessman who made the bid also gave the two of them a thumbs up, and praised them for their courage! Then withdrew from the bidding.
It can indeed be said to be courageous. Even Emperor Fei couldn't come up with a price tag like nine million.
Therefore, when the price tag shouted here, it was completely over. In the end, it was Yunzheng who took the rough stone into his pocket.
According to the rules of the auction house, Yun Zheng, as the trader with the largest amount of money today, had to resolve the stone on the spot. If the bet goes up, Yunzheng will be the gambler of this rough stone auction. In the next week, no matter which market Yunzheng buys rough stones in, he will have the priority to choose and can get a discount.
But if the bet fails, the auction house will let Yun Zheng choose a rough stone worth no more than one million as compensation.
The previous attendant explained this rule to Yun Zheng carefully. On the other side, after Yun Zheng's consent, the master who explained the stone was also ready to start explaining the stone.
"I guess I'm going to be in the limelight this time." Yun Zheng sighed, and looked at Gu Yan, feeling a little helpless. He wanted to buy something and leave. But sometimes, when things really come to a head, there is nothing to do.
Seeing his expression, Gu Yan immediately understood: "Are you going to lose your bet?"
"I won't lose my bet, but there are too many troubles in the future." Yun Zheng knew the details of this rough stone, so he naturally felt more and more headache. But fortunately, things are his own now, and he will never miss the opportunity like the rich businessman in his previous life.
But at this time, other people in the venue all turned their eyes to Master Xie Shi.
With the grinding sound of the stone-dissolving machine, everyone's eyes also fell on the most obvious green part of the skin.
"It's green, it's green!"
"It looks like a gamble. But unless the big rough stone is full of ice species, at least it is ice. Otherwise, I will still lose money."
"It will definitely be a loss. Look at the lower part of the rough stone, it is obviously not there. Now let's look at the green part above, how is the water head?"
Those present were all stern, and they couldn't help discussing this calculus just at the beginning. But as time went by, the green area in front became more and more subtle. Afterwards, even Jie Shi's master broke out in a cold sweat.
Unexpectedly, this piece of rough stone, which was identified as 90% likely to rise sharply, collapsed directly.
That's right, it just crashed. No one expected that the greenness on the top layer, which seemed to be completely eaten, was only a thin skin, and it broke off directly. And from the cut side, the layer of skin is only one millimeter thick, which can be said to be quite pitiful.
When Jie Shi came to this point, Master Jie Shi's face suddenly became ugly. As for the bidder's expression, it was also quite unnatural.
It is actually very common for rough stone auctions to fail. But the rough stone that Yunzheng bought was no longer a bet, but just like some auction house deliberately made a rough stone in order to cheat money.
There is no emerald in the original stone with a base price of 4 million. If this is said, even if no one suspects that they are maliciously cheating, it will be enough to ruin their reputation. After all, the top stone gamblers guarding an auction house can still miss all of them. It can be seen how poor their professional level is.
"What can we do?" The auctioneer approached Master Jieshi and discussed with him in a low voice. And Master Xieshi also had no regrets at the other end, so he could only bite the bullet and untie it.
"I hope there is still a place to grow green!" The stone calculus muttered in a low voice, and the movements of his hands became more and more agile. In the end, he even became ruthless and split the rough stone into two from top to bottom.
Sure enough, the result is still not satisfactory. Yunzheng, the original stone, can be determined after Xieshi has solved it here. Already broke the bet.
In other words, Yun Zheng spent 10 million yuan, and he didn't even hear the sound of water, so he was in vain.
