One... One hundred million...!
The auctioneer was so frightened that he almost threw the hammer in his hand. He managed to steady it with great difficulty, swallowed hard, and spoke incoherently, "Eight... Number Eight just... just offered a price of 100 million! Mr. Number Eight offered a price of 100 million!!! Oh my God!"
Many of the people who came today were anonymous, and No. 8 was one of them, so the auctioneer only knew that he was a male, but didn't know his origins, so he had been calling him by a code name.
After the auctioneer's voice fell, the scene remained dead silent for a long time. After a long while, everyone gasped as if they had just woken up from a dream. Some people even stood up excitedly and looked at the corner where no one was interested. However, there seemed to be only one person sitting at the table in the corner, and it was in a place where the light could not reach. For a moment, it was impossible to see who that person was. All they could see was a white hand with distinct joints holding a sign...
"I... Oh my god! Did I hear it wrong? One hundred million? Someone offered one hundred million? Are you crazy? Who in the capital has such inhumane financial resources? Most importantly, is there anyone who bids so much for something? You are just throwing money around!"
"It's just a game of throwing money around! One hundred million, just to buy a piece of jewelry!"
"Wait! Wait! This isn't right... If I'm not mistaken, the person holding up the sign just now was... Number 8... Number 8? Isn't Number 8 the agent of the little artist named Ning Xi?"
"Yes, yes, yes! I remember that too! He just raised the price piece by piece, how come it suddenly jumped to 100 million! What the… what's going on!"
…
Not to mention the celebrities under the stage, the auctioneer himself was stunned. In all his years as an auctioneer, this was the first time he had seen such a bid. It jumped from 60 million to 100 million in one go. It was like he was playing a game!
Finally, the host wiped his sweat and ran up to remind the auctioneer, who then reacted and continued his duties. He took a deep breath to calm down and said, "Ahem, everyone, be quiet, be quiet, our auction will continue! Mr. Su just offered 60 million, but the third bid has not yet come to an end, so it is not effective. Now, our distinguished guest No. 8 has offered a high price of 100 million for the Crown Queen! That's right! You heard it right, 100 million! Now! Is there anyone else who wants to continue bidding? Anyone else?"
The auctioneer spoke out this series of lines loudly and excitedly in an inspiring tone.
In his hands, the auction item was sold at a price so much higher than the low price. This is definitely a glorious achievement in his career!
After the auctioneer finished speaking, the scene was in dead silence.
The auctioneer's eyes subconsciously turned to Su Yan, who had already won the prize. The latter's face was obviously very gloomy.
Being suddenly intercepted, and at such a price that absolutely crushed him without any resistance, no one would feel good...
Ning Xueluo, who was enjoying everyone's admiring gazes, turned green in the face and hurriedly looked at Chang Li beside her, "What's going on? Isn't number eight yours?"
Chang Li was really confused now, and had to tell the truth, "No... No... Actually, I wanted to say it just now... I didn't arrange number 8... I don't know who he is..."
