Chapter 72 Gambling
Shen Changfeng smiled: "I advise you not to pretend to be rich. If you do, it will not only embarrass you, but also Mr. Lu's face."
He just didn't believe it. Without Lu Beichen's help, would Chen Wan, a ridiculously poor man, come up with the money to auction it?
The lowest price of an item here is one million.
One million!
Even if you sell Chen Wan, she's not worth the money.
Shen Wan felt amused when he saw Shen Changfeng's face, which looked like he was about to show off.
Among the four brothers in the Shen family, the one she respected the most was the eldest brother Shen Changfeng.
Because from the first moment she saw him, she was conquered by his cool and elite aura.
Once upon a time, she always thought that Shen Changfeng, as the eldest brother, was different from the other brothers.
He is just aloof and not good at expressing himself.
Now it seems that all members of the Shen family are birds of a feather.
"What if I can take a picture? What would Mr. Shen say?"
Shen Changfeng sneered: "If you don't borrow money from anyone and buy a collection independently, I can apologize to you in front of everyone."
Shen Wan laughed when he heard it, his face full of contempt: "How much is Mr. Shen's apology worth?"
Shen Changfeng's face darkened: "Then what do you want to do?"
Shen Wan smiled slightly, "I want you to do this in front of everyone—"
Before she finished speaking, Shen Changfeng immediately rejected her answer with a firm voice: "Impossible!"
"You want me to admit in front of all the celebrities and dignitaries that you are my biological sister, right? Impossible!"
"Don't even think about it!"
Shen Changfeng's face was full of resistance.
Shen Wan's face was light, and his tone was calm: "I want you to announce in front of everyone that you and I have nothing to do with the Shen family."
When Shen Changfeng heard this, his face turned completely dark: "What do you mean?"
Originally he looked down on Chen Wan, how come now it seems like Chen Wan looks down on them?
This transfer made Shen Changfeng unable to accept it for a while.
"Why do you look down on the Shen family?" He was angry and said in disbelief: "I was the first one to mention this kind of thing, Shen Wan, why do you think you can mention it?"
It seemed as if she disliked the Shen family so much.
Shen Wan smiled and said, "Why, Mr. Shen doesn't dare to gamble anymore?"
Shen Changfeng sneered: "Okay, if you can take a picture, I will publicly declare that my Shen family has nothing to do with you."
"But what if you don't have the ability to take the photo and just pretend to be rich?"
"What can you do?"
Chen Wan shrugged: "Whatever you ask."
Shen Changfeng stared at her for a long while before saying, "I want you to move back home."
"Don't be so conceited. I don't like you. It was my father who insisted that you move back home. I promised him."
Shen Wan agreed readily, "Okay."
Shen Changfeng looked at her with a smile on her face, and the contempt in his eyes became even stronger.
You see, she will definitely lose to him on purpose later, and then use this as an excuse to move back home.
If he had known earlier, he should have changed the bet, at least to let Shen Wan suffer a little, so that she would know that his dignity as an elder should not be offended.
The second half of the auction began.
Everyone took their seats.
The items were displayed one by one, and each one was bought.
In order to ensure that Shen Wan could win the bet with the minimum margin, Lu Beichen operated secretly and deliberately put up several low-priced collections.
Just a few hundred thousand.
Shen Changfeng saw it all but was too lazy to expose it.
Anyway, even if it was hundreds of thousands, Shen Wan couldn’t afford it.
Lu Beichen watched as several pieces of his collection worth hundreds of thousands of dollars were auctioned off one after another, and Chen Wan never raised a sign from beginning to end.
He couldn't help but worry about her.
"Master Shen, there is another collection worth 300,000 yuan. If you don't bid for this one, the only collections left will be the finale and the main collection."
"The finale will cost at least 30 million."
“Not to mention the big axis. No one has ever bid for this since my grandfather founded the auction.”
Shen Wan said calmly, "I'll take another look."
Shen Changfeng next to him gave him a mocking look, as if saying: I'm waiting to see you get humiliated.
As the last piece of collection worth three hundred thousand was auctioned off, Lu Beichen was so nervous that sweat broke out on his forehead.
The finale of the collection is a tripod emerald jade double dragon movable ring incense burner, which is round in shape, with intricate and exquisite carvings, delicate texture, and rich and bright emerald green, which is simply impeccable.
Shen Wan's eyes lit up involuntarily, but he still didn't raise the sign.
Lu Beichen did notice that this tripod incense burner was the only collection she liked.
"Starting price: 30 million."
Lu Beichen picked up the 001 sign without hesitation and raised it: "Thirty-five million."
Shen Changfeng saw through it and sneered, “Boss Lu, what you took doesn’t count. You have to rely on someone else.”
Chen Wan asked Lu Beichen in surprise: "Mr. Lu, do you like this antique?"
Lu Beichen lowered his voice and said, "I have just informed the secretary to transfer the 35 million to your bank account. You can pay with your card later."
Chen Wan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I appreciate your kindness, please take it back."
She quickly pulled his hand back and snatched the 001 sign.
Lu Beichen was so anxious that he was almost sweating all over: "Master Shen, I can't help you with the last thing, why don't you just take this one."
Shen Wan remained calm and composed.
The incense burner was finally sold to someone else for 36 million yuan.
Shen Changfeng sent another merciless taunt: "I heard that the main collection of the auction has been kept for ten years and no one has bought it. The price is sky-high."
"Chen Wan, you've hit a wall this time."
Shen Wan didn't even look at him, his eyes lightly glanced at the auction book in his hand.
The last page of the auction catalogue is the large scroll collection.
It looks like just an ordinary piece of ancient jade, but it actually has a great origin.
"The last item in the collection comes from a top private collector in the imperial capital. It is a rare ancient jade that is thousands of years old."
"There is no bidding for this collection. The price is 600 million!"
As the host finished speaking, the display stand slowly rose.
The ancient jade was quietly displayed in the glass display cabinet.
"No one has bought this ancient jade in ten years."
"Well, we are not short of money, but spending 600 million on charity is something only an idiot would do."
"Yes, we come here once a year, which is already very caring. Who would be willing to spend 600 million at once?"
There were many different opinions, but no one held up a sign.
Shen Changfeng looked at the motionless Shen Wan and sneered in his heart.
He knew that she had no ability and was only good at talking big.
She couldn't even afford a collection worth three hundred thousand, let alone one worth six hundred million.
Lu Beichen wiped his sweat and whispered to Shen Wan: "Master Shen, if you don't want to go home, no one can force you. I will stand by you and help you."
Shen Wan smiled and looked at the display stand.
Ordinary people with mortal bodies cannot see it, but she can see it.
There was a faint golden light lingering around the ancient jade, and she could also feel how rich the spiritual energy contained in the ancient jade was!
If you take a picture of this thing and carve a spiritual pattern into it, it will be much more powerful than the jujube wood struck by lightning.
Just right for Li Hanting!
