Gao Yan and Sally chatted for a few more minutes.
Lin Jianshen then broke away and walked over here.
"Miss Sally, you've become even more radiant since I last saw you!" Lin Jianshen said with a smile.
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Lin."
Sally stood up and reached out to hug Lin Jianshen.
"How has Mr. Will been lately?"
Lin Jianshen asked again.
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Lin. Mr. Will is doing well and asked me to give you my regards."
"Mr. Will, you're very kind."
Lin Jianshen looked flattered, then feigned curiosity and asked Gao Yan, "Miss Sally, who is this gentleman?"
"This is Mr. Gao Yan, Mr. Will's business partner."
"oh!"
Lin Jianshen feigned surprise: "I didn't expect Mr. Gao to become Mr. Will's partner at such a young age. Hello, Mr. Gao, I am Lin Jianshen from Shenhe Group. It's a pleasure to meet you!"
"Hello, Mr. Lin, I am Gao Yan!" Gao Yan slowly stood up and shook hands with Lin Jianshen.
The two then began to chat.
However, these are all topics that offer no real insight.
It must be said that every successful businessman is also a qualified actor.
Lin Jianshen clearly knew of his existence long ago and had even planned to sacrifice his daughter to obtain the gene serum, but he didn't reveal the slightest secret in front of Gao Yan.
Finally, after exchanging contact information, Lin Jianshen excused himself and left.
He was, after all, the host of this charity gala, and he was quite busy tonight.
Time passed slowly.
Before we knew it, it was eight o'clock.
The charity auction is about to begin.
After Lin Jianshen delivered a speech, the auction officially began.
The first item up for auction was a painting and calligraphy work from the Ming Dynasty, provided by a wealthy man named Liang Haiweng.
Gao Yan used his Insight Eye to examine it and determined that it was an authentic work, priced at around 1.5 million.
The starting bid for the calligraphy and paintings is one yuan, and the minimum bid increment is one hundred thousand yuan.
Ultimately, Liang Haiweng bought back the Ming Dynasty painting and calligraphy for 1.6 million yuan.
The second item in the auction was a set of diamond jewelry provided by Lin Jianshen's legal wife, valued at around 1.2 million yuan.
At first, there were quite a few bidders.
But after Lin Yiyi joined the bidding, everyone stopped bidding, because everyone understood that the Lin family's princess also wanted to buy back the jewelry set, and if you continued to bid, you would offend someone.
Therefore, Lin Yiyi bought back the jewelry for 1.5 million yuan.
The third item was a Yixing teapot, made by a contemporary master potter and valued at around 600,000 yuan. It was also provided by a wealthy person present at the auction.
However, he himself has no intention of buying back the Yixing teapots.
Finally, this Yixing teapot was sold for 800,000 yuan!
Because this wasn't a formal auction, the auction process was quite fast.
In just twenty minutes, 15 items had already been auctioned off.
What Gao Yan found interesting was that the highest-priced item among the 15 auction items was a child's doodle, which sold for a whopping 3.2 million yuan.
Of course, this young author has a remarkable background; his parents are the chairman and director of a large corporation, respectively.
The person who spent a fortune to buy this graffiti was a company CEO who wanted to curry favor with the young artist's parents.
"Mr. Gao, don't you have any items that you like at the auction?"
Sally whispered in Gao Yan's ear.
To be honest, Gao Yan didn't like any of the 15 items auctioned just now, even though he didn't have to pay for them himself.
Suddenly, Gao Yan had an idea: "Sally, I have something I'd like to put up for auction, is that alright?"
Gao Yan's main purpose in attending this charity gala was to attract the attention of the overseas demonic sects, but to his disappointment, Lin Jianlin did not show up.
Since that's the case, he only has one thing to do to attract the attention of the overseas demonic sects.
"Of course, no problem!"
Sally couldn't possibly refuse Gao Yan's small request.
"Then let's auction off this gem!"
Gao Yan took out a spirit stone and handed it to Sally.
"Please wait a moment!"
Sally took the gem and hurriedly left.
Sally went directly to Lin Jianshen and asked him to add more items to the auction.
Knowing that the gemstone was provided by Gao Yan, Lin Jianshen immediately arranged for the twentieth item to be replaced with a spirit stone!
soon.
The twentieth item was then brought to the stage.
The auctioneer first boasted about the spirit stone, and then told everyone that the gemstone was provided by Gao Yan.
Lin Yiyi's eyes lit up when she heard Gao Yan's name.
Without hesitation, I offered 5 million!
There were quite a few knowledgeable people present. Although they didn't understand the true value of the spirit stone, they all believed that such a large gemstone was worth at least tens of millions.
As a result, the competition became fierce.
6 million!
7 million!
9 million!
...
12 million!
Seeing that the bidders were being too conservative, Gao Yan decided to boost the excitement and shouted, "One hundred million!"
Anyway, the Crystal Skull Society will reimburse the cost.
When he calls out a price, he doesn't hesitate at all!
Upon hearing the offer of 100 million, the room fell silent for three seconds.
Immediately, dozens of eyes fell on Gao Yan.
Faced with the inquiring and curious gazes of the crowd, Gao Yan smiled and nodded at them.
One hundred and ten million!
