Lin Han looked at the money on his phone and couldn't help but let out a long sigh and said:
"Manager, don't worry! I will never let you down!"
Shen Nianyi didn't say anything else.
Lin Han transferred the money to the hospital and confirmed that his father had started treatment. He then breathed a sigh of relief and went to the auction with Shen Nianyi.
"Let me tell you the details first."
Shen Nianyi said:
"This auction is a charity auction. It includes not only antiques but also some valuable luxury items such as jewelry. The profit margins of these items are very low. If you don't understand, forget it."
"It's mainly those antiques that can be traded. If there's money to be made, just tell me!"
Lin Han looked at Shen Nianyi doubtfully and said:
"Manager, from what you said, you are very short of money?"
If she was short of money, giving herself 200,000 yuan would be a little hard to accept.
"Don't worry about this. It doesn't matter to me whether I give you the money or not!"
Shen Nianyi sighed slightly.
If her old man hadn't been a little impatient with her antique shop which was run for fun, she wouldn't have been willing to take a gamble at the auction!
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the auction venue.
This is Lin Han’s first time participating in an auction.
The venue was decorated luxuriously. It was more like a dinner party than an auction, except that there was an auction booth in the middle.
Shen Nianyi and Lin Han had just eaten something when they saw a man in a suit and leather shoes coming over. He smiled at Shen Nianyi and said:
"Yiyi, now you're really here, if you see anything you like, just tell me and I'll give it to you!"
Shen Nianyi frowned and looked at the man, saying disdainfully:
"Don't I have any money? Do I need you to give me some? It's really unlucky. If I knew you were here, I wouldn't have come here!"
As Shen Anyi spoke, she suddenly grabbed Lin Han's arm, leaned on Lin Han's shoulder like a little bird and said:
"Honey, let's go over there and take a look!"
Lin Han was stunned for a moment, turned his head and glanced at the man, and saw a trace of resentment on his face. He stared at Lin Han and said:
"Who is he? When did you get a boyfriend?"
"Is it your business?"
Having said that, Shen Nianyi pulled Lin Han and prepared to walk aside.
The man didn't dare to attack Shen Nianyi. He grabbed Lin Han and said angrily:
"Boy, who are you to Yiyi?"
Lin Han was confused by the scene in front of him and said reflexively:
"I'm an employee of Miss Shen's store. Who are you?"
Shen Nianyi was not paying attention and didn't have time to stop Lin Han from telling the truth.
"Oh! So he's just a stinky part-time worker!
I thought he was a young master from some family?"
The man said disdainfully.
"Formally introduce myself. I am Yiyi's fiancé - Feng Bin. If you have nothing to do, please step aside. I have something to say to Yiyi alone!"
After the man finished speaking, he deliberately pushed Lin Han hard.
Hearing the man's ridicule, Lin Han became furious and stood in front of Shen Nianyi like a rock. The man pushed him but failed to move him.
"Feng Bin, don't be so shameless. When did you become my fiancé?"
Shen Nianyi was so angry that she stuttered.
"Lin Han, ignore him, let's go!"
After saying that, Shen Nianyi glared at Feng Bin fiercely, then pulled Lin Han away quickly.
"Manager, is this abominable guy really your fiancé?"
Lin Han followed behind Shen Nianyi and asked in a low voice.
"Shut up, why are you talking about something else?"
Shen Nianyi was a little angry because Lin Han’s mistake just now ruined her plan.
After cursing, he felt that he had not discussed it with Lin Han in the first place and used him as a shield, so he felt a little guilty. He suppressed his anger and continued:
"This Feng Bin's family and my family are old friends. We have known each other since childhood, but I have never liked him since childhood!"
"It's just that the two elders are randomly matching each other up. You just saw what kind of person he is. How could I possibly like him?"
Lin Han nodded slightly.
Although Shen Nianyi is a rich second-generation, she has no airs or arrogance at all and appears to be very approachable.
However, Feng Bin's realm is far behind Shen Nianyi's.
After the two took their seats, the auction began quickly.
The first item to be auctioned was a Qing Dynasty vase, a blue and white porcelain vase. According to the host, it was a royal item. The starting price was 5 million, and the minimum bid each time was 20,000.
Lin Han’s True Vision Eye skill is activated.
The information about the porcelain bottle was quickly displayed.
[Blue and white porcelain from the Qing Dynasty official kiln, 56% intact, restored later, worth 1.5 million! ]
"It turned out to be a restored piece. If it were in mint condition, the price would probably be ten times higher!"
Lin Han shook his head slightly and thought silently in his heart.
Some people in the audience have already started bidding. The gimmick of "palace supplies" is enough to attract most people.
In less than 10 minutes, the auction price of this blue and white porcelain vase rose to 2 million.
But the momentum has not diminished, and people are still constantly bidding and raising prices.
Shen Nianyi glanced at Lin Han at this time, and was encouraged by this atmosphere and was eager to try.
"Manager Shen, don't get excited! This bottle is not as good as it looks."
Lin Han said calmly.
"This... but the people present here are all veterans with sharp eyes, right?"
Shen Nianyi said with some doubt.
"Humph! That can't be helped by the skilled craftsmanship of the person who restored it. Believe me!"
“This bottle is not worth the price!”
Lin Han said with certainty.
In the end, the Qing Dynasty official kiln blue and white porcelain was auctioned off by a wealthy businessman at a high price of 2.8 million.
After the payment and goods were settled, he was eager to find someone to appraise it.
But soon the other side started to curse.
"Damn it, I was wrong! It's actually a restored piece!"
Shen Nianyi was stunned when she heard this and gave him a thumbs up.
The auction continued, and the next few lots were mediocre.
The final transaction price and value are almost the same, basically breaking even.
Lin Han has also been observing the condition of the items silently.
“Next, we will auction the ninth item of this auction, which is also a heavy item.
Jade Buddha!"
The host's voice suddenly rose, and everyone present was excited.
Good stuff is coming out!
Several tall etiquette ladies pushed up a jade sculpture in a transparent glass box.
It is a jade Buddha statue about half a meter long. It looks crystal clear and shiny.
As soon as the jade Buddha appeared, Shen Nianyi's eyes lit up instantly.
He stretched out his slender goose neck and looked straight at her, obviously moved.
“This jade Buddha is so beautiful!”
Shen Nianyi said to herself, and Lin Han looked at the jade Buddha carefully upon seeing this.
[Old material from Pagang, finely carved jade Buddha, 30% complete, made from 9 different types of jadeite, not a complete carving, worth 3 million RMB.]
The more Lin Han looked, the more his brows furrowed. Shen Nianyi, who was watching from the side, was extremely anxious, watching his expression.
"Lin Han, please speak up. What do you think of this jade Buddha?"
Just as Shen Nianyi kept urging, the host on the stage spoke:
"Myanmar's exquisitely carved jade Buddha, starting price 6 million!
Increase the price by 20,000 each time, and the bidding begins! "
