"Young Master Huang is awesome!"
"As expected of a young master from the capital, he's incredibly generous!"
Watching the rapidly scrolling comments and listening to the praise from his friends, Huang Tianci felt particularly good!
"My main goal this time is to bid on the last few watches, and then buy some jewelry. Just wait and see what I've got!"
"It seems that Huang Tianci downstairs has an online account that specializes in posting flaunting content, attracting a large number of followers..."
Lin Yi stepped forward and showed the screen in her hand to Lin Jicheng:
"If it were just sending something to show off, that wouldn't be a problem, but this one video—"
Lin Yi clicked on one of the videos with some apprehension. The screen showed the SXP shopping mall in Beijing, which Lin Jicheng recognized, accompanied by Huang Tianci's sour voice:
"It's okay if a girl doesn't know anything about cars, but is it really worth sacrificing her youthful looks to earn shady money and squander it every day?"
Then comes a whole bunch of vulgar pornographic rumors. Although there's no real evidence, they can concoct an entire obscene story just by starting with a single picture...
"It seems like the young lady's back is visible here. Although her face wasn't captured in the photo, I'm still worried..."
Lin Jicheng stared coldly at the screen, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes.
Huang Tianci, right...? You dare to spread rumors, then I dare to retaliate!
As the two were speaking, a woman dressed in a light blue cheongsam gracefully appeared and stood on the platform at the front:
"Hello everyone, I am Yi Songchun, a director of JSD Auction and the host of today's auction!"
Yi Songchun, true to her name, possessed a warm and gentle demeanor, both kind and scholarly. She delivered a long and eloquent opening speech, and soon, the first product was served—
When the black box was opened, a vibrant rainbow of colors instantly filled the viewer's eyes. On the velvet base were twelve "Bird on a Rock" brooches, all similar in design but completely different in color!
"This series features Tiffany's most classic brooch design, 'Bird on a Rock.' Each brooch consists of a small bird at the top and a gemstone hanging below. Unlike previous designs, this series uses a wider variety of colorful gemstones, including red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, and white, hence the name 'Rainbow Bird on a Rock.'"
The auction assistant standing next to Lin Jicheng explained diligently:
"These include a 100-carat aquamarine, a 52-carat rubellite, a 25-carat diamond, and so on. Such large colored gemstones are extremely rare; one of them even incorporates over 50 carats of black opal underneath. This is one of the fastest-growing categories in the gemstone market in recent years..."
In front of Lin Jicheng, the huge LCD screen captured every detail of the brooch clearly. In addition to the almost enormous gemstones hanging below the brooches, the birds perched on these "stones" were exquisitely crafted, with the shape of their feathers cut out from pieces of diamonds. Each bird was different in shape, some soaring with outstretched wings, and some strolling leisurely, all quite lively and vivid!
"Young Master Huang, I think that brooch with the yellow diamonds on the bottom would suit you very well!"
Meanwhile, in the private room below, Huang Tianci's henchman Zhou Zidi was praising him lavishly:
"Look, Young Master Huang is wearing such a bright yellow suit today. If he could wear that brooch, wouldn't that be perfect!"
"really!"
Huang Tianci was very pleased with the praise, and before the host could even introduce the product, he quickly raised his sign:
"200,000!"
"Haha, it seems the first item up for auction today is quite popular!"
Host Yi Songchun laughed heartily:
"But I haven't finished explaining the auction rules yet—"
"We will prioritize selling this set of brooches to the buyer who purchases the entire set. The starting bid for each of the remaining brooches is 200,000."
"Of course I want that yellow diamond brooch! Three hundred thousand! Don't even try to take it from me!"
Before the host could finish speaking, Huang Tianci loudly raised his sign again!
"As expected of Young Master Huang, his generosity is truly astounding!"
"Young Master Huang is so handsome..."
Watching the barrage of comments flashing across the live stream, Huang Tianci was overjoyed, and even held up his sign with more energy!
The twelve rare colored gemstones ignited the atmosphere of the auction right from the start, with many people eyeing their favorite brooch and bidding fiercely!
"Four hundred thousand!"
"Five hundred thousand!"
Several buyers who placed orders by phone tentatively followed up a few rounds, and soon the price of each brooch had exceeded one million!
"Nine hundred thousand, one million! Is anyone else willing to raise the price?"
Before the host could finish speaking, Huang Tianci immediately followed up:
"One million two hundred thousand!"
As soon as Huang Tianci finished speaking, many people in the audience gasped in surprise. As the eldest son of the Huang family who loved to show off, his reputation in the capital was well-known. Even if someone wanted to compete with him, they would be defeated by his reputation as a wealthy man!
"A yellow diamond bird brooch, 1.2 million per piece. Does anyone have a higher offer?"
The host had just raised the gavel but hadn't brought it down when Huang Tianci looked around with a provocative smile, feeling that he was absolutely certain of victory!
"I told you so! There wasn't a single player here who could fight! A poor wretch like you dares to compete with me?!"
Huang Tianci smugly straightened his yellow suit in front of the camera, preparing to get up and go on stage. In that instant, he had already figured out how he would show off online after the video was taken!
