Chapter 84 Eye-Opening
As the host finished speaking, everyone present burst into warm applause.
Nie Yao couldn't help but turn her head to look at Li Jinxing, and said with a smile, "I forgot to thank you for sending your assistant to hold up the sign and take pictures of our Nie family's collection. This will prevent our Nie family's donations from being humiliated..."
"Good things must not fall into the hands of others!" Li Jinxing said with a faint smile.
"But 20 million is a bit too much. Our family's collection is not that valuable..." Nie Yao said this with a hint of apology in her tone.
Although Li Jinxing helped her and the Nie family save face, it still cost a lot of money in the end!
"Although the value of the collection has a market valuation, whether it can be fully utilized also depends on what it is used for..." Li Jinxing turned his head, leaned close to her ear, and whispered with a smile: "This money can be donated to charity and do good things, and it can also make you happy. Isn't it worth spending it?"
Nie Yao was stunned for a moment, then met his smiling gaze, and a faint blush unconsciously appeared on her face...
He said this as if he was spending money to please her and didn't take the mere 20 million seriously!
Just as the two of them were staring at each other, the host on the stage spoke again: "The following piece is from the collection donated by Mr. Li Jinxing. It's an ancient Egyptian artifact, the Spear of Anubis, made entirely of gold. It was buried with Seti I. The starting price is 60 million..."
Many people were eagerly waiting to see what the collection donated by Li Jinxing was. When the collection was carefully brought onto the stage, it immediately caused a commotion.
Nie Yao's attention was also diverted by the host's words. She looked intently at the stage and saw a golden spear on display in a glass cabinet.
Nie Yao widened her eyes in disbelief. Although she had not personally checked it before going on stage, she could tell that this golden spear was different from the other spears and was indeed from an ancient Egyptian tomb.
Because only the golden spear held by Anubis has this shape...
Nie Yao sighed softly. She had never expected him to donate such a collection. She couldn't help but whisper to Li Jinxing beside her, "How many ancient Egyptian artifacts do you have?"
Apart from the age of the cultural relics that Li Jinxing and Director Chen asked her to check last time, Li Jinxing has now donated such a valuable cultural relic, which really opened Nie Yao's eyes!
Li Jinxing smiled noncommittally and replied in a low voice: "You will know later..."
When Nie Yao heard him say this, she sighed. It seemed that he had more than the two things she knew about.
"I didn't expect that you are a collector of ancient Egyptian artifacts..." Nie Yao said in a low voice. If that was the case, then it would not be surprising that Li Jinxing would appear in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt!
Li Jinxing didn't rush to explain, but just smiled it off.
This was the first time that ancient Egyptian collections were seen at a charity auction. Many investors present were excited and raised their bids.
The businessmen who originally wanted to get close to Li Jinxing and show their goodwill through this charity auction also competed to bid, and soon the price soared to 100 million.
"One hundred and ten million..." At this moment, Ji Minghuan raised the sign again.
Nie Yao subconsciously glanced at Ji Minghuan, who was holding the placard, and sneered, saying, "I didn't expect he also wanted to bid for your collection..."
