Liao Chengyu could hardly believe his ears.
One hundred million?
Has he gone mad?
The price jumped another 20 million!
Or is it that he simply doesn't understand the value of money and is just recklessly squandering that woman's wealth?
The auction hall was deathly silent; everyone was speechless, stunned by the astronomical figure.
Even the host was stunned, and it took him a while to find his voice, which trembled slightly: "One hundred million! This gentleman has bid one hundred million! Is there anyone else willing to raise the price?"
Liao Chengyu felt his heart pounding violently, as if it were about to leap out of his chest.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, but the anger and resentment in his heart were like a raging fire that he could not extinguish.
He looked at Li Yi again, a resolute glint in his eyes.
He knew he couldn't keep going at this price, and he didn't dare; he had to ask his father for permission.
Otherwise, if I were to bid on this jade hairpin, I would definitely anger my father to death when I got back.
"Dad, there's a jade hairpin that Empress Wu Zetian used at the auction. I'd like to bid on it. What do you think?"
Liao Chengyu's father quickly responded.
"Sure! The jade hairpin used by Empress Wu Zetian is a top-tier item! It'll definitely sell easily. Let's just get it!"
Liao Chengyu's father was very supportive.
Liao Chengyu asked cautiously, "The competition at the auction is fierce right now. Someone bid 100 million, should we add another 100,000?"
Liao Chengyu's father, who had been looking at his phone with a kind expression, flew into a rage upon seeing this message!
He immediately sent a message: "A jade hairpin is worth at most ten million! It's already a hundred million, why are you still raising the price? What are you raising the price for! If you dare to come back and compete with me, I'll disown you!"
Liao Chengyu was sweating profusely. Luckily, he had asked his father, otherwise he would have been doomed if he had agreed to the price!
Faced with his father's stern warning, Liao Chengyu had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​continuing the bidding.
"One hundred million yuan per time!"
"One hundred million yuan twice!"
"One hundred million yuan three times!"
Congratulations to bidder number 168 for winning the jade hairpin once used by Consort Wu for 100 million yuan!
As the host finished speaking, applause and gasps of amazement rang out in the auction hall.
"Holy crap, this pretty boy is so arrogant. Doesn't he value his master's money?"
Everyone was indignant.
Lin Wanqing was also puzzled and asked in a low voice, "Is it worth spending 100 million on a hairpin?"
Li Yi smiled slightly and whispered in her ear, "Worth it!"
Lin Wanqing: "Why?"
Li Yi: "Because I bought this jade hairpin as a gift for you!"
"Huh???" Lin Wanqing was stunned.
She never expected that Li Yi would actually give her this jade hairpin.
Li Yi: "What? You don't like it?"
Lin Wanqing: "I like it! But it's too expensive!"
Li Yi: "I'll buy it for you as long as you like it. Go to the auction later, and if you see anything you like, just tell me, and I'll buy it for you no matter the price!"
"No need, you just transferred me a billion, didn't you? That's more than enough!"
Li Yi: "Ten billion won't take long, so hurry up and use it soon so I can send you more money!"
Lin Wanqing: "..."
Lin Wanqing didn't know what to say.
Others who keep mistresses do so to save money as much as possible.
You're something else, telling people to hurry up and spend the billion so you can get more money later.
That's incredibly extravagant!
However, Lin Wanqing knew that Li Yi was sincere towards her.
Although being his mistress wouldn't give me any official status, the fact that he treats me so well is enough!
Lin Wanqing felt a warmth in her heart, and her affection for Li Yi increased once again.
[Target: Lin Wanqing: Affection +10]
Current favorability level: 60 points
Li Yi was overjoyed. Great! He spent 100 million, but after successfully completing the strategy, he could get a 50 million cashback and also gain 10 points of goodwill.
This deal is a sure win!
Anyway, I'll give away everything I buy at today's auction without spending a penny of my own money. The more expensive the item, the more I'll earn.
Soon, the second item was brought up for auction.
This is a blue and white porcelain vase from the Ming Dynasty imperial kiln. Its glaze is clear and bright, and its patterns are exquisite. It attracted everyone's attention as soon as it appeared.
The beautiful host introduced the vase: "This is a blue-and-white porcelain vase from the Ming Dynasty imperial kiln. The glaze is warm and lustrous like jade, and the patterns are lifelike. It is one of the finest examples of Ming Dynasty blue-and-white porcelain. The starting price is eight million, and each bid must be at least two hundred thousand. Now, the auction begins!"
Having learned his lesson before, Liao Chengyu no longer dared to easily match the price.
He looked at Li Yi, who remained calm and seemed uninterested in the blue and white porcelain vase.
Someone else made an offer: "Eight million two hundred thousand!"
Seeing that Li Yi wasn't interested, Liao Chengyu dared to make his offer: "Eight million four hundred thousand."
"Eight, six million."
......
Before long, the price reached ten million!
This price was set by Liao Chengyu.
The other bidders all shook their heads.
Any higher and it would be a complete loss!
"Ten million once!"
"Ten million twice!"
However, just when Liao Chengyu thought the blue and white porcelain was his for the taking, Li Yi made a bid, and just like before, a doubling bid: "Twenty million!"
Liao Chengyu was stunned!
Holy crap, weren't you uninterested?
Not again?
Liao Chengyu realized that Li Yi was retaliating and deliberately targeting him!
The scene erupted in uproar once again.
"Has this guy gone mad again?"
"Twenty million for a blue and white porcelain vase? Does he have too much money to burn?"
