Chapter 472 Las Vegas Auction
When An Yunxi handed the four men a brand new pistol and boxes of heavy bullets, none of them said much except for a little surprise in the initial moment.
Perhaps because of their long-term trust in An Yunxi, everyone took over the weapons tacitly and quickly and skillfully checked the performance of the guns.
Soon, the vehicle stopped steadily in front of the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas.
This magnificent building is like a dream castle shining with golden light, attracting countless people's attention.
The artificial lake at the entrance is like the finishing touch, and people coming and going can't help but cast their eyes towards it.
An Yunxi and his group got out of the car calmly and showed the invitation letter, which symbolized their distinguished status, to the security guard at the door.
An Yunxi brought Elvis, Lin Yi and Hairong into the auction site, while Wu Yuan and Yan Hua stayed outside to support them.
Walking into the venue, the luxurious decoration is dazzling, the dazzling crystal chandeliers emit charming light, and the soft carpet makes people feel like they are walking on clouds.
The three followed the guide through the bustling crowd and finally sat down in a spacious and comfortable private room.
After sitting down in the private room, An Yunxi opened the auction item list and looked through it.
This catalogue lists in detail the various rare treasures that will be unveiled at this auction, each of which is priceless.
The auction hadn't started yet, so Elvis left the private room to find out what was going on.
As the agent of Haiyun Manor, Butler Elvis, who has been operating in the United States for many years, also has his own connections and sources of information.
After reading the list from beginning to end, An Yunxi did not see any information about private islands.
However, there were two Chinese antiques that caught An Yunxi's attention.
Just because it’s not on the list doesn’t mean it won’t be auctioned.
It is common to see some items not listed in the catalogue and some finale products appearing at auctions. This is nothing new.
Not long after, Elvis returned to the private room and reported the situation to An Yunxi in a low voice.
"Miss, this auction will have three finale items, a cultural relic, an oil field, and a private island. Many wealthy families are here this time, and all the private rooms are open. Most of them are here for these three finale items."
After hearing what Elvis said, An Yunxi couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
oilfield? Private island?
I have to say, she was a little moved!
You know, whether it is the oil fields that can bring huge wealth, or the private islands that allow people to enjoy a quiet and luxurious life, it is undoubtedly extremely tempting to anyone, and An Yunxi is no exception at this moment.
And if this cultural relic was from China, she would take a picture of it.
If not, forget it.
She is not too uninterested in cultural relics from other countries.
"Do you know what kind of cultural relics they are?"
Elvis bowed slightly and responded with an extremely respectful attitude: "I'm sorry Miss, the auction organizers are keeping this a secret, and we haven't found out what it is specifically."
Hearing this, An Yunxi remained calm and continued to ask, "What about the situation of the oil field?"
Ives quickly replied: "It is understood that this is an oil field located in Syria. However, the situation there has always been quite chaotic. Even if we can successfully take over this oil field, the subsequent mining work will probably face many difficulties."
oh?
I see.
If that were the case, there would be no need for her to auction it.
She would not do anything that would bring safety risks and serious trouble to herself.
While the two were talking, the auction had officially begun.
At the beginning, the items that came on stage for auction were all exquisite works of art, but An Yunxi, who was sitting in the audience, remained silent and never made a bid.
Even when it came to masterpieces by world-renowned artists such as Van Gogh and Picasso, she remained unmoved and had no intention of bidding for them.
Because for An Yunxi, the most important thing when buying something is the first impression, which is the so-called eye contact.
She won't buy something if it doesn't suit her taste, no matter how high the price is.
In this way, time passed minute by minute, and finally it was the turn of the antiques from China to appear on the stage.
All the crowd saw was a bronze Sanxi Ding with intertwined dragon patterns from the late Spring and Autumn Period, with a simple and elegant shape and exquisite craftsmanship, being carefully presented to them by the staff.
The moment she saw this antique, a gleam of light suddenly flashed in An Yunxi's eyes, which had been as calm as water, and she began to participate in the auction without hesitation.
It was just a bronze Sanxi Ding with intertwined dragon pattern from the late Spring and Autumn Period, but An Yunxi asked for 1.3 million US dollars, and there were still people who continued to bid higher to compete.
At this moment, An Yunxi's heart was filled with alarm bells, and she keenly realized that something was wrong.
You know, the highest price for a tripod like this at an auction was just over 1 million RMB. She couldn't believe who would spend so much money to buy it.
Although she is not short of money, she doesn't want to be taken advantage of.
