"The current record of holding his breath for Dinis is 22 minutes, but our gentleman is obviously not a specially trained swimmer, so... our goal is 30 minutes, and while he is inside, he cannot hear or see the timer. ." The auctioneer's voice was transmitted to every corner of the place through the speakers.
Seeing Long Yan's facial features blurred in the water, Shen Yinyin nervously tightened her fingers and pinched the handle of the seat.
"Don't be nervous, Ayan will be fine." Rao Rao patted her arm gently and said softly.
Seeing the woman's deep concern, she felt even more deeply that Long Yan's fate was not good. If he didn't have a cousin, he and Shen Yinyin could be brought together...
"But this looks too scary. Can this glass really be broken from the outside?"
"Also, half an hour, my God"
Shen Yinyin fidgeted and murmured to herself.
Not only her, but other people's moods were also tightly grasped by the flashing pointer.
The auctioneer on the stage, on the other hand, looked calm and composed, telling everyone the time every other minute.
Shen Yinyin looked at the second hand and almost lost her sight. Every minute seemed as long and distant as light years.
Finally, just when it seemed to her that centuries had passed, the first number on the timer reached three.
She was so excited that she wanted to stand up, but Rao Rao held her down with her internal strength.
"Yin Yin, don't get excited..."
"But he hasn't come out yet!" Shen Yinyin said anxiously.
Following her words and the silence in the audience, the auctioneer smiled slightly and took the initiative to press the button and open the lid on the top of the pool.
Immediately afterwards, Long Yan came out.
In order to prevent Long Yan from being uncomfortable, the people at the auction house sent two men to help him.
But Long Yan just shook his head and walked off the stage like nothing happened.
After taking the phone, his indifferent voice spread along the radio waves.
"This gem can indeed clear water. I don't feel any discomfort at all in the water, and my breathing is normal." Long Yan said, returning the gem in his neck to the store, and then followed others to wash up.
His words suddenly caused a commotion in the silent venue.
The banquet was of a very high standard, and all those who could attend were high-status people. Although Long Yan looked young, there was no guarantee that he was not the son of a big conglomerate, and there was absolutely no need to support the venue.
The blue gem becomes more translucent and dazzling after being soaked in water and under the light, which has attracted many people's attention.
As if to give everyone time to think, the organizer served desserts and cocktails. Rao Rao also wanted to drink them, but unfortunately Qin Chen didn't agree and had to give up.
During the dessert time, Long Yan also changed his clothes and came back.
Seeing Rao Rao and Qin Chen nuzzling each other, he snorted angrily.
"You two are not tired of panic!"
"You really can't see the grapes and say sour grapes, I understand." Qin Chen sneered...
Seeing that bright little sparks were about to burst out in their eyes, Rao Rao quickly interrupted them.
"Ayan, is that stone really that magical?"
Long Yan looked around and lowered his voice: "It's true. It's strange. When I put it on, the surrounding water will naturally avoid it without any resistance. According to your description, I think it's what you want." Looking for something.”
Rao Rao and Qin Chen looked at each other and saw the auctioneer came on stage again, so they didn't ask any more questions.
As long as it's not about feelings, Long Yan usually won't look away.
"The last piece of the collection, the Sapphire Mermaid's Tears, has a starting price of 50 million, and each increase in price must not be less than 5 million!"
As soon as this price came out, it immediately ignited the enthusiasm on the market.
Qin Chen had never liked ink. Seeing that the price increase was slow, he simply raised the sign and increased the price to 50 million, piling the number up to nine digits.
However, because they were not only dressed casually but also disguised themselves, after he raised the sign, the fat man next to him kindly reminded Qin Chen that casual bidding here would be punished.
Qin Chen glanced at him but did not put down the sign he held up.
After thinking about it, it seemed too cold not to reply. After all, he meant well, so he said calmly: "I know the rules."
The fat man was startled and thought of the word "rules".
When he reacted, he realized that he was confused. The money used for each auction at this venue was put into a temporary account in advance. He didn't have that much money and couldn't call it at all.
"One hundred and five million." Someone started to increase the price again.
Qin Chen frowned slightly and looked at the person holding the sign with his peripheral vision. He was a young man...
As if feeling his gaze, the man raised his head and smiled at him.
It's just that the smile is not friendly, and the slender eyes are high-cornered, showing a strong sense of provocation.
"Two hundred million."
Anyway, it was inevitable to get this thing, so Qin Chen was unambiguous.
really.
After he quoted this number, there were far fewer bidders.
But what I didn't expect was.
The boy added more money, and it was 500 more than Qin Chen.
This is somewhat intriguing...
Qin Chen narrowed his eyes and raised his sign again.
"Three hundred million!"
"Three hundred and five million."
Qin Chen: "..."
Long Yan reached out and poked his eldest brother: "Is this your enemy? I'm here to disgust you on purpose."
"I don't know..." Qin Chen said indifferently.
But no matter what he is doing, if the people present are fighting for money, he is really not afraid.
only...
Although this stone has the effect of repelling water, to be honest, there is no use taking it back.
Moreover, it looks weird and cannot be reprocessed. Who knows whether the reprocessing will have the same effect as before.
Seeing the man's careless look, Qin Chen thought he must have brought a lot of money.
Simply raise your sign again.
"Five billion."
"Five hundred and five million."
"A billion."
Qin Chen spat out two words carelessly, feeling a little angry.
According to the rules of fear of selling, unless two people have a grudge, they will rarely bid like this.
"Once in a billion!"
"Twice a billion!"
"One billion and five million!" The boy in the first row raised his card again and stared at Qin Chen provocatively.
Seeing Qin Chen's veins twitching on his forehead, Long Yan couldn't help laughing.
"Ha ha ha ha... "
"Do you want to add more? Why don't you just pay 10 billion? You're not short of money anyway." Long Yan stubbornly said from the side, smiling like a fool.
Rao Rao is angry and helpless, 10 billion.
Even if he is not really a fool!
Rolling her eyes, Rao Rao decided to be immoral for once.
She picked up her phone and pretended to read Weibo, then took the small sign from Qin Chen's hand.
"I come."
Qin Chen raised his eyebrows but said nothing.
Others are disgusting, but Rao Rao doesn't have a home worth 5 million at a time like that person.
Her 100 million 100 million sign, and the unique combination of her young appearance attracted many people's attention.
But after changing his appearance, they were not worried.
Not long after, the price reached the terrifying figure of 3.7 billion...
At this moment, everyone is no longer watching the auction, but starting to watch the competition between the rich.
Some people even felt deep regret, extremely regretting that they had not made friends with Qin Chen and the others in the beginning. For someone who could casually spend so much money, the family behind them would be stronger than they imagined.
However, there is no regret medicine sold in this world.
On the other hand, the young man sitting in the front row still had his lips raised, fearless.
"3.7 billion and 500."
"25 billion!" Rao Rao's crisp voice was as beautiful as an oriole, mixed with a hint of temptation.
"25 billion and 5 million!"
"I do not want it."
Wow—
The water bottle in front of the boy overturned, and he looked at Rao Rao in panic...
He stood up immediately: "You don't want it anymore?"
"No, there is an old saying that a gentleman does not take away what others like. Although I am not a gentleman, I understand this truth. Since you like it, I will make it happen for you..."
Rao Rao said with a smile, even though she had a plain face, her smile was still bright and beautiful.
The young man was a little stunned...
This woman is not good-looking either. Why is she...
"boom!"
The hammer fell, and the auctioneer's high-pitched shouts echoed throughout the audience.
"25 billion and 5 million times, congratulations to buyer No. 2!"
"I... "
"I... "
The young man stared blankly as all the money on his bill was deducted. He was so excited that he could not speak for a long time.
"Oh, that's not right. Buyer No. 2, the money in your account is wrong." Looking at the message that popped up on his work computer, the auctioneer's face darkened, and the smile on his face also dimmed a bit.
"I don't have that much money..." the young man said in a low voice. He didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly shouted to Rao Rao.
"You deliberately raised the price to trick me!"
"Auctioneer, I was tricked by her. I, I don't want this gem!"
"If you don't want it, why are you still filming? Who is tricking whom?" Rao Rao sneered, bent Qin Chen's arm and walked out.
The last piece of the collection has been hammered down, which means the auction is over.
It’s just that no one thought that the fast gem could fetch a sky-high price of 25 billion, nor did they expect that someone would dare to ask for the price without money!
"Master Su... you have bid the price time and time again, but now that the hammer has fallen, you tell us that you have no money. Isn't this inappropriate?"
The people at the auction house said and walked towards the young man.
Those who dared to do this job hired many bodyguards, and they quickly surrounded the young man.
"You pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand. If you don't have money, don't ask for a price. If you ask for a price, you have to pay. And our seller is here, and he has heard the price. Now you are going back on your word, isn't it against the rules?"
"But I really didn't..." The young man was so anxious that he almost cried.
Seeing that Rao Rao and the others were about to leave the venue, he suddenly burst out with strength from nowhere and ran towards Rao Rao and the others.
"You can't leave! It's obviously you who plotted against me!"
"You ask them for money! Ask them for money!"
He was so excited that he wanted to pull Rao Rao, completely regardless of whether she was on the steps or a pregnant woman.
Seeing his actions, Qin Chen and Long Yan's eyes darkened.
When they were about to take action, they realized that someone was one step ahead of them. Shen Yinyin raised her foot and kicked the young man in the calf...
Seeing that the boy just knelt down without falling, she lowered her head in annoyance.
"Sigh... It seems I didn't practice hard enough, and I didn't even kick anyone away."
Long Yan: "..."
Qin Chen: "..."
Rao Rao: "Children can be taught! Gray always has a future!"
