Beichen Club is a place where people from secluded families also come. It gathers celebrities from all over the world, and the people here have seen a lot of the world.
The usual small gestures would not cause them any panic at all.
But this situation is indeed rare this time.
Ji Ziyi's personal waiter immediately trotted over to the auctioneer's ear and whispered something.
The auctioneer also showed a surprised expression.
All of this was seen by everyone present, and others were also interested and talked about it.
"What happened?"
"That's strange, why is no one offering a price?"
"I saw someone coming down from the VIP area on the second floor. Could it be that some big boss has taken action?"
"It looks like it's pretty close."
…
Third floor.
In Ye Wangchuan's box.
He pressed the service bell to call the waiter and asked briefly, "What happened down there?"
"A customer on the second floor offered a sky-high price to bid for this rough stone, so it took some time." The waiter at Beichen Club was eloquent and explained the whole story in just a few words.
"Exorbitant price?"
A dark light flashed across Ye Wangchuan's eyes, and he said frivolously, "Tsk, what's the sky-high price?"
The following auction venues have already been negotiated, and the auctioneer will announce the current price.
"One billion."
You have to know that a few seconds ago, the price of this ancient jade was only called to nine digits, and now it has directly jumped to ten digits.
It’s indeed a big deal!
And very courageous!
Even Qiao Nian was interested and asked the waiter about the origin of the collection, then stroked his chin and said, "Even if this guy doesn't offer 1 billion, the price will fluctuate around 700 million or 800 million in the next few rounds of bidding, so 'he' didn't add much." "But this guy is smart and knew to give a capped price at the beginning."
"This way, 'he' got another shot and became famous again."
Qiao Nian seldom praises others.
This time she really felt that this man was quite intelligent and not a complete idiot.
Ye Wangchuan merely raised his eyebrows, turned around, quoted a price to the waiter in their box, and asked the waiter to leave.
Qin Si finished the game and happened to hear the price quoted by Ye Wangchuan. The corners of his mouth twitched and he looked at the ancient jade on the exhibition stand.
He turned around and looked at the man, saying, "Master Wang, why are you taking pictures of this? Are you buying it for Sister Qiao?"
"Good friends anniversary."
Ye Wangchuan looked at the girl who was also looking at him casually, smiled slightly, and said dignifiedly and lazily: "I have received a gift, so of course I have to give a gift in return. Otherwise, how can I be someone's boyfriend?"
Qiao Nian's head was aching and her eyelids twitched violently. She reached out and pulled down the brim of her hat to cover her eyes with an expressionless face, but her heart was filled with a terrible headache.
If I had known she wouldn't have mentioned the good friend's anniversary...
If it can be discounted.
The price he offered was enough for her to build a few more laser missiles that she had used before.
Qiao Nianyou glanced at him, and a deeper thought came to her mind: Sure enough, good-looking people are usually spendthrifts~
The better looking it is, the more wasteful it is!
…
In the VIP area on the second floor, Ji Ziyin, who had already acted confident of winning, began to drink coffee elegantly while talking to Yu Qingliu.
It was not until a long time since there was any new offer or announcement that she had won the ancient jade that she could no longer sit still and stopped chatting. She said to Yu Qingliu restlessly, "Old Yu, why is there no movement down there?"
"Let's wait and see. Don't be impatient yet."
Yu Qingliu frowned and stared closely at the movements below.
