Views:

Early next morning.

When the sky was dim, Dong Xuebin woke up from his sleep. He rubbed his eyes and stretched, exhaling. At the end, he opened his mouth and yawned loudly, but before the yawn reached its peak, bang, it was white and tender all the time. One's little hand pressed down on his mouth, and another hand made a shushing gesture. Dong Xuebin snorted, and then he remembered that he was at Qu's house, and Qu's mother was sleeping on the sofa in the outer room, so he hurriedly pricked his ears and listened for one second, two seconds, and then he listened only when there was no movement outside. Heartbroken.

"Xuanxuan, are you awake early?"

"Call me aunt, no big or small, um, wake up for a while."

"We already have that, so why should we call her aunt?"

"..."

At this time, Aunt Xuan was hugging her around the waist, her hair hanging down on her shoulders, and even her head was using his arm as a pillow, giving her the feeling of a little bird clinging to someone. Dong Xuebin noticed Aunt Xuan's subtle psychological changes and couldn't help but chuckle. A sense of accomplishment burst out deep in his heart. He was extremely satisfied and stretched out his arms to hug her naked body. "You have been hugging her like this since you woke up." Mine? Well, don’t you admit it with your mouth, but you’ve always liked me in your heart?”

"Beautiful and virtuous." When Qu Yunxuan heard this, she immediately pushed him away with a blushing face, "Who cares about you?"

"Xiao Xuanxuan..."

"Call Auntie"

Dong Xuebin coughed in a low voice, "Aunt Xuan, have you thought about it now? Can you be my girlfriend?"

Aunt Xuan looked at him, smiled and pinched his nose, "...Auntie, you have to think carefully."

"Dizzy, you still think about it after this?" Dong Xuebin pinched her buttocks depressedly.

"I'm going to beat you up, don't **"

"Oh, forget it, just think about it carefully. Isn't it possible to rely on you?"

Qu Yunxuan smiled warmly, scratched his nose and said, "Well, I'll give you an answer after I think about it. Are you still asleep? My mother probably hasn't woken up yet. You can wait until she goes to the kitchen to make breakfast later. Sneak away, you can’t go out now, if you’re sleepy, just sleep a little longer.”

"I'm not sleepy." Dong Xuebin hugged her soft and hot body, "Let's do it again."

"Don't make trouble, it still hurts."

"It should be fine. Come on, try again and tell me if it hurts."

"Go to hell." Qu Yunxuan pinched his thigh and said angrily: "I almost let my mother hear it yesterday. It's no longer possible. If you want to do it, do it at night."

"...Isn't it really possible?"

“Absolutely not”

Dong Xuebin felt itchy. After tasting Aunt Xuan once, he wanted to taste Aunt Xuan a second time and a third time. However, seeing that Aunt Xuan refused to agree, he couldn't force it and suppressed his desire. Dong Xuebin had no choice but to harm Xuan. Aunt Xuan's body was so hot that she didn't reject her this time. She glared and raised her hand to play with Dong Xuebin's hair one by one. Sometimes she would circle it in her hands, and sometimes she would poke his ears with her hair.

There was the sound of slippers outside, and the bedroom door was screwed. "What door should you lock? Are you awake?"

Qu Yunxuan hurriedly said: "I was tired yesterday. I will sleep a little longer. Should you make breakfast or should I make it?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? You can't let me cook while you're sleeping? Get up quickly and see where you can find a job during the day." After saying that, Qu's mother went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash herself.

Qu Yunxuan in the bedroom opened the hand on her breast and said, "Good boy, go get dressed."

Dong Xuebin reluctantly moved his eyes away from her and put on his clothes one by one. Qu Yunxuan looked very embarrassed. After coughing, she climbed out of bed, got out of bed naked and found her underwear and autumn clothes. Dong Xuebin put it on awkwardly under the gaze of Dong Xuebin, and glared at Dong Xuebin fiercely from time to time. After she put on her autumn clothes, Qu Yunxuan walked up to Dong Xuebin and helped him fasten the buttons one by one virtuously. That little gentle So energetic, she really looks like a newlywed wife.

Dong Xuebin said with great effort: "Aunt Xuan, can you please call me husband?"

Aunt Xuan's neck felt hot and she gave him a fierce look, "What are you talking about, neither big nor small?"

"Call once, just once."

"... Shameless." Qu Yunxuan straightened his collar, "Don't bark."

"Oh, you need a piece of meat to be called a person."

Qu Yunxuan rolled her eyes and ignored him. After she got dressed, she quickly packed away the blood-stained sheets and placed them on the bottom layer of the cabinet.

At this time, there was the sound of the stove igniting in the kitchen. It was Qu's mother cooking.

"Go home quickly, it's too late if you don't leave." Qu Yunxuan opened the door first and took a look outside. Seeing that there was no one in the living room, she turned around and pulled Dong Xuebin, walked quickly to the hallway, and gently opened the door, "Quickly ”

Dong Xuebin said: "I have to go out in the morning for something, and I won't be back until the afternoon. I'll see you then."

Qu Yunxuan said yes, "Then... I'll be waiting for you."

"Try to get your mother away tonight, we two..."

"Go, go, go, don't be serious and leave quickly."

Dong Xuebin returned home happily. He was in such a good mood. He finally took down Aunt Xuan and finally tasted the taste of a woman. It was so... I couldn't say anything else, just three words - so excited. Dong Xuebin took off his clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower. After drying his hair and walking out of the bathroom, he was still wondering if he should watch some movies like that to study, so that he could try different ways to torment Aunt Xuan in the evening

Ring ring ring, IPHONE4 is ringing.

Dong Xuebin looked at the number and saw that it belonged to Mr. Sun from Hanhai Auction House. "Hello, Mr. Sun?"

"Xiao Dong, the auction is about to start. I've got the auction sign you want. When will you come?"

"Okay, thank you. Is this the Ya'an Hotel? I'll take a taxi right now."

"Okay, then I'll be waiting for you in the parking lot."

After hanging up the phone, Dong Xuebin thought that he should give Aunt Xuan a surprise. His pearl necklace would be sold in the half-time auction in the morning. As long as nothing happens, he would be sure to get one million. What kind of company do you want to open by then

It's not even ten o'clock in the morning.

Ya'an Hotel.

In the open-air parking lot in front of the hotel, Dong Xuebin saw Teacher Sun as soon as he got out of the taxi. He was making a phone call not far from the main entrance of the hotel. He seemed very busy. When Dong Xuebin walked over, he just put down his mobile phone. He looked back and said to himself with a smile: "Here? Let's take a walk. We just happened to go up together in the small banquet hall on the seventh floor." Teacher Sun took out an auction as he walked The card came, "Here, number thirty-three."

Dong Xuebin took it and said, "Thank you very much."

"You're welcome. You can actually get in without the auction sign. I just need to say hello over there."

"Oh, that's it. I thought you had to pay a deposit to get a sign before entering the auction site."

"Haha, you are the seller, of course you can be accommodating. Well, you can hold the sign. If you see anything interesting, take a photo and collect it. I looked at the auction, and there are a few good things in this issue."

Dong Xuebin hummed in response, thinking to himself that he didn’t even have 2,000 yuan on him, so why should he take pictures

After bringing Dong Xuebin to the auction site, Teacher Sun left in a hurry, probably because Hanhai had other tasks for him.

Looking into the small banquet hall, the place is quite spacious, but there are not many chairs. Just seven or eight rows behind, many successful people wearing suits and jackets registered and entered the auction venue one after another. Seeing this, Dong Xuebin showed the auction sign to the staff at the door and followed him in. He found a seat in the last row and sat down, looked at the red carpeted rostrum, and waited patiently.

Ten minutes later, the auction begins.

The auctioneer slowly walked up to the rostrum, took the microphone and said to the following: "Ladies and gentlemen, good morning, everyone. Welcome to the 27th auction of Hanhai Auction House. It is an honor for me to host today's auction. Hammer, I am Li Bin, a nationally registered auctioneer. My qualification certificate number is 15336781. Please supervise me." The auctioneer was about forty years old. After his opening remarks, he began to count the numbers.

Soon, the first lot was typed on the screen.

The auctioneer introduced: "This is a carved boxwood tripod from the mid-Qing Dynasty. It is 13 centimeters high. It has a delicate color and exquisite carving. It is rare in existence. It is a rare fine wood carving. The starting price is 2,000 yuan. There is a fixed price increase of 500 yuan for each sign raised, okay, let’s start bidding now.”

Dong Xuebin knew that this thing was definitely not going to work as soon as he heard that the placard was only increased by 500 yuan.

A chubby woman held up a sign.

The auctioneer said: "Two thousand five thousand... No. 2 bids two thousand five hundred..."

Another southerner held up a sign and shouted out the price, "Four thousand."

"The bid is four thousand... Are there any bidders... Four thousand..."

Finally, this boxwood tripod was auctioned off by a northerner, and the transaction price was 10,000 yuan.

Two minutes later, the second lot was auctioned.

Dong Xuebin, who came to the auction site for the first time, was concentrating on watching the excitement. Suddenly, there was the sound of opening the door not far away. Four late-arriving young people walked in quickly with auction signs and began to look for a seat in the back. After searching, the leader, a young man in his thirties with very long hair, set his sights on Dong Xuebin. Only three seats were available here, and there were no seats elsewhere.

The young man with hemorrhoids on his face said to the long-haired young man: "Wei Nan, sit over there."

The long-haired young man Wei Nan nodded and walked up with the other three people, "Friends."

Dong Xuebin had seen them a long time ago and knew that they had to come to the three empty seats next to him, so he slightly retracted his legs to let them pass. Unexpectedly, several people on the other side did not move. Dong Xuebin couldn't help but be stunned, "Can't go?"

The young man named Wei Nan said: "Friends, let's discuss something. You can go find a place in front."

Dong Xuebin was stunned for a moment, "What did you say?"

Wei Nan said: "There are still empty seats in front. We are together and want to sit together."

Dong Xuebin got annoyed when he heard this, "I'm sorry, why don't you sit down together and let me get away from you?" Why the fuck? You take yourself too seriously. "If you want to sit together, come early next time at the auction. I'll sit here. You can find somewhere else." Dong Xuebin deserves to be a leader for a month. Now he speaks with an educational tone. Actually, that's it. If they arrive before filming starts, it won't be a big problem if everyone changes seats. How big of a deal is it? But now it's all auctioned, you're late, you still want to pick and choose and change places? Are you asking me to find a seat in front of so many people? Damn it, he is sick

"Hey," the young man with hemorrhoids became angry, "Is this boy good enough?"

Wei Nan frowned, stared at Dong Xuebin and said, "Brother, can you give me some face?"

Dong Xuebin said in his heart that you guys can't even say polite words, and you still want me to move? He sneered: "I'll give you face? Then who will give me face?"

Another young man behind him slapped the table, "Do you want to change it?"

Dong Xuebin looked into the man's eyes and said word by word: "I will change your uncle's mouth to be cleaner."

The young man became angry immediately, but Wei Nan held him back, shook his head with a sullen face, and after looking at Dong Xuebin again, he said to the young man next to him: "Go and find a place in front." That man As if he were a follower, he nodded and went immediately. Wei Nan and the other two sat next to Dong Xuebin.

Dong Xuebin didn't even bother to look at them and continued to focus on the podium.

The third lot…

The fifth lot…

Wei Nan and the others seemed to be waiting for something, and they never held up a sign once.

At this time, the auctioneer on the stage said: "The next lot... must be what many people have been looking forward to for a long time. This is the last thing in the morning session - a pearl necklace. The pearls that make up this necklace are not only natural Freshwater pearls, and they are also gold pearls. The size of each pearl is 1.4 cm to 1.8 cm. They are very rare fine jewelry." After a pause, the auctioneer adjusted his appetite and said, "Okay, now the starting price is announced. The starting price is... 500,000 yuan. The price will increase by 10,000 yuan each time you raise a placard. Let's start bidding now."

Come on, come on. Dong Xuebin suddenly concentrated his attention, paying attention to every change on the field.

A middle-aged man with a beard raised his sign.

"Fifty-one million...Is there anyone with a higher bid...Fifty-one million..."

A middle-aged woman raised the sign without hesitation and said loudly: "...five hundred and fifty thousand"

A young man sitting in the front row raised a sign - 560,000.

The middle-aged woman shouted again: "Six hundred thousand"

The auctioneer took the microphone and said: "It's 600,000... The bid on the 6th is 600,000... Are there any bidders... 600,000 at a time..."

Seeing the fierce competition in the scene, Dong Xuebin was also infected by the atmosphere and a little excited. He secretly prayed that there would be a few more rich men this time. As long as two people are determined to get this necklace, the deal will be completed. The price will go up. Can it still be higher? Can it be higher

"…620,000"

"The bid was 620,000 on the 21st... 620,000... Oh, lady over there, the bid on the 6th was 630,000... 630,000 is already the highest... 630,000 once... and No... Oh, the bid was 650,000 on the 21st... 650,000 once... 650,000 twice... Over here, 690,000... There is a bid of 690,000... Is there any higher price? ?”

Middle-aged woman No. 6 gave up the competition.

Suddenly, just when Dong Xuebin was tensed and paying attention to the situation, a voice sounded in his ears, "Seven hundred and fifty thousand."

Dong Xuebin was stunned and looked sideways, only to see that the person bidding was the long-haired young man sitting next to him - a guy named Wei Nan. Dong Xuebin said in his heart that this girl was interested in his own pearl necklace. No wonder he didn't raise the price just now. Hey, he was quite generous. He added 60,000 yuan in one breath. Well, more and more. But when Dong Xuebin looked at Wei Nan and his group, the other party was also looking at him, and the meaning in his eyes seemed to be very showy, as if to say: Look, we can afford seventy-five dollars. Wan, can you do it

Numb, the necklace you took pictures of belongs to me. You and I have to fuck each other. Dong Xuebin can see that among this group of people, the only one named Wei Nan has some money. He seems to look down on everyone. , glanced at Dong Xuebin and then looked away, quite contemptuously.

"Seven hundred and fifty thousand... The bid on the 36th is seven hundred and fifty thousand... Is there any more..."

A middle-aged man who had just bid over there looked back. He was slightly stunned when he saw Wei Nan, and then smiled kindly.

Wei Nan also smiled back.

The middle-aged man put down the auction sign and stopped fighting with him.

Dong Xuebin let out a sigh, wondering if these two knew each other? Depend on? No need to argue? Fight, hurry up and raise the price. It's only 750,000 now. Where did it come from

A southerner sitting in the middle row suddenly joined the fight and said, "Eight hundred thousand."

Wei Nan raised the sign without thinking, "...850,000"

The southerner thought for a while and said, "...860,000."

Wei Nan said loudly: "Eight hundred and eighty thousand"

What surprised Dong Xuebin was that there seemed to be more than one person at the scene who knew this person named Wei Nan, and they were all very polite to him. He laughed and she laughed. Dong Xuebin knew that Wei Nan might not be a simple person. Either he always came to places like auctions and got to know a lot of people, or he or his family had a lot of connections, otherwise the bosses who were in their 40s and 50s would not be able to deal with it. A thirty-year-old guy is so polite.

Any background? No matter what your background is, if you increase the price quickly, is it really 880,000 or too little

Dong Xuebin doesn't care about anything else. He only cares about how much money he can get from this necklace. He is anxiously waiting for the money to start a company.

"Eight hundred and eighty thousand once... Is there any higher bid... eight hundred and eighty thousand..." the auctioneer said: "... eight hundred and eighty thousand twice..."

The scene that Dong Xuebin was most worried about happened.

There is no one left to compete with him at the auction.

Why am I dizzy? Hurry up and increase the price, don't let it end like this, right

Dong Xuebin's heart skipped a beat. The initial momentum was good because the starting price was low and it was worth it. But now, if the price is 880,000 yuan, there is still a handling fee and commission, which is one million. This price has already reached the same level. The price difference in private transactions is not that big. In addition, the people who came this time may not be interested in pearl necklaces, or for various other reasons, which is why such an embarrassing situation was created.

Eight hundred and eighty thousand, excluding commissions and so on, all I can get is 600,000.

How can I get 600,000 yuan for a necklace that I spent so much effort to get? You’re still running a bullshit company, it’s so far away from a million dollars.

"Is there any increase in the price to 880,000 yuan?" The auctioneer had already raised his hammer.

Wei Nan smiled. This was really an unexpected gain. Normally, there would be no problem with this necklace fetching 1.2 million, but probably none of the people who came today were particularly interested in it. Haha, it can be saved now. I made a lot of money.

Looking at his smile, Dong Xuebin felt as if he had eaten a fly

Is it over? Let this girl get such a huge advantage? Can you only get more than 600,000? Did you go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces for nothing

"Eight hundred and eighty thousand..." The auctioneer's hammer moved and slowly fell, "...the third..."

Just when "the third time" was about to blurt out, at the critical moment when the deal was about to be completed, a person quickly raised the sign and said loudly: "... one million"

Many people looked over.

The person calling the price was actually Dong Xuebin

Wei Nan was stunned and looked at him in surprise.

Dong Xuebin didn't look at anyone, and stared straight ahead.

"One million... I bid one million on the 33rd..."

A young man next to him cursed, and then whispered something to Wei Nan. After a moment, Wei Nan raised the auction sign, "... one million and fifty thousand," he said to himself, now you don't dare to bid anymore, right? Wei Nan's family is in extremely advantageous conditions, and he has met countless business owners, so he has naturally developed a good eye. From Dong Xuebin's dress and temperament, it can be seen that he is not a wealthy owner.

However, Dong Xuebin raised his sign without hesitation, and quickly raised the auction price by a large amount, "1.2 million."

Wei Nan was stunned, and several of his friends were also stunned. Can this kid really afford more than a million

"Oh... It's 1.2 million... It's called 1.2 million... Is there anyone else... 1.2 million once on the 33rd... 1.2 million twice..."

Wei Nan's eyes were fierce, "One million and three hundred thousand" he said to himself, do you still dare to scream

Dong Xuebin is really brave, "1.4 million"

Wei Nan also became angry. When he first came to the auction house, this kid made him lose face in front of his friends. Moreover, he could obviously buy the necklace at a low price of 880,000 yuan, but this kid told him Making trouble, isn't Wei Nan just talking about money? Who is afraid of whom? So he opened his mouth and shouted: "1.45 million"

Dong Xuebin said: "One and a half million"

Wei Nan gritted his teeth and said: "1.55 million"

Dong Xuebin looked at him sideways, raised the sign high and said: "One million and six hundred thousand"

Discussions started suddenly

Everyone at the scene could smell the strong smell of gunpowder, and there was suddenly no sound below. Everyone was paying attention to Wei Nan and Dong Xuebin. 1.6 million, this is already an unreasonable price, why buy it at such a high price? Is it because it’s meant to be a wedding token, so I’m bound to get it

Wei Nan's face changed slightly. After the moment of anger, he calmed down and knew that he could no longer argue. It was not that he had no money, but that there was no need. Thinking of this, Wei Nan sneered in his heart, 1.6 million to buy a pearl necklace worth 1 million? Aren't you stupid? After he lowered his head and said a few words to the two young men next to him, they both looked at Dong Xuebin as if they were laughing. Including commission, Dong Xuebin would have to pay about 1.8 million.

"One million six hundred thousand once... One hundred six hundred thousand twice..." The auctioneer raised his hammer and dropped it heavily, "One million six hundred thousand three times."

Wei Nan was happy and called him a fool in his heart.

Dong Xuebin glanced at Wei Nan, scolding him as a fool in his heart, and then shouted BACK with a dumbfounded smile.

The screen flashes

Dong Xuebin felt his hand raised on it, and when he looked up, he saw it was an auction sign.

The auctioneer, who had dropped the hammer, returned to the time period when he was shouting to raise the price. The auctioneer pointed in the direction of Dong Xuebin and said: "Oh... 1.2 million... All of a sudden, it was 1.2 million." Is there anyone else... 1.2 million once on the 33rd... 1.2 million twice... "

Returned to the time when the pearl necklace was not sold.

Dong Xuebin has saved BACK three times in the past few days, and now he has used it once and has two left.

This was an idea he came up with when Wei Nan was about to close the deal for 880,000 yuan. He had not used it for several days, and he almost forgot about BACK.

Wei Nan's eyes turned cold and he looked at Dong Xuebin provocatively. "One million and three hundred thousand" seemed to mean: Do you still dare to bid

Of course Dong Xuebin dares, must dare, definitely dare, "... 1.4 million"

Wei Nan raised his eyebrows and said, "One million and four hundred and fifty thousand."

Dong Xuebin raised the auction sign without hesitation, "One and a half million"

Wei Nan and the two friends next to him looked at each other and finally shouted: "One and a half million." After the anger, Wei Nan gradually calmed down and took a few breaths. He had already thought about it. Look at the boy's first few You don't even think about raising the price this time, but this time you will definitely have to increase it. That's fine. If you want to increase it, let him increase it. If you want a pearl necklace, let him go. You are bound to get it? I have no choice but to stop spending this unjust money. It’s not necessary at all. Haha, let that ignorant boy suffer a dumb loss. This will relieve my anger much more than bidding for a pearl necklace.

"It's already 1.55 million... Is there anyone else bidding... 1.55 million once..."

Wei Nan lowered his head and said something to the two young men beside him.

The two young men also understood and looked at Dong Xuebin happily, meaning you are screaming, do you dare to bid

But unfortunately, Dong Xuebin didn't say a word since he shouted for the 1.5 million. The old god just closed his eyes and rested.

Wei Nan didn't expect his reaction and was stunned for a moment.

"One and a half million and a half million times... Is there anything higher..." The auctioneer scanned the bottom and paid special attention to Dong Xuebin. Seeing that he seemed to be asleep, the auctioneer was speechless for a moment. He raised the hammer and said: "One million and a half million... the third time." The hammer hit the ground hard, "... deal"

The faces of Wei Nan and his two friends turned extremely ugly in an instant. Why didn't he bid? Didn’t you just hesitate? What happened? Isn't he destined to win? Why would he pay 1.5 million if it wasn't inevitable?

Bang bang bang, there was a round of applause, as if they were applauding Wei Nan for his courage.

Dong Xuebin's heart has long blossomed, and the harvest this time is too great.

One million and a half million

After excluding commissions and other expenses, I was able to get more than 1.3 million, which was a full 300,000 more than the expected 1 million.
