"she?"
Gu Fei was a little surprised.
The ancient warriors have only been in the secular world for a few months, have they already infiltrated so deeply?
Can he even host such an occasion?
Man Xingyue smiled and said, "I've seen her before. Besides, I'm not an expert in supernatural powers, but there are several ancient warriors here, and they're masters. I'll know once I give them a try."
Hearing this, Gu Fei also got an inspiration.
He carefully felt the supernatural energy around him and was surprised to find that there were actually six people with supernatural powers in the entire auction venue.
In addition to Yang Caiwei, there are five others.
As expected, for such a grand auction, the villain boss and Ye Wentian would not have no reaction. I just don’t know who they sent or what their purpose is.
He couldn't help but look at Fu Hongmei, but before he could speak, he saw Fu Hongmei shushing at him.
Does this mean that he cannot speak?
But how did she know what he was going to say?
At this time, Yang Caiwei, who was sitting behind Gu Fei, suddenly patted him on the shoulder, and then pointed towards the stands on the second floor not far away.
Gu Fei looked up and saw that it was Jiang Jiaojiao and Jiang Ming. Sitting next to them was Zhang Qiangu, who had helped them to embarrass Gu Fei on the street before.
It seems that they are the representatives of the Jiang family.
Soon, the auction began.
The beautiful host has a clear voice and she uses her internal energy when pronouncing words to ensure that everyone present can hear her clearly, remember her words, and not be distracted.
"Today, our first treasure for auction is an authentic work by Wang Xizhi!"
What?
Everyone at the scene was shocked when they heard this.
Didn’t Wang Xizhi’s original works get lost long ago?
No one has found even half of his original work so far. Where did they get it from?
More importantly, auctions are generally gradual, and the later the items are, the more valuable they are.
If Wang Xizhi's original work is authentic, it must be priceless.
Such a priceless treasure is actually placed first?
The multiple shocks caused the conference hall to become completely silent.
"How can you be sure it's the original? The popular works on the market now are all copies and forgeries of Wang Xizhi!"
"Exactly. Who are you trying to fool? There is no such thing as an authentic work of Wang Xizhi!"
"That's bullshit, right? Such a big auction is using fake goods to deceive people?"
Gu Fei and the others were also very surprised when they heard the first item.
Gu Fei is not a calligraphy enthusiast, but he still knows this common sense: Wang Xizhi's original works have indeed been lost long ago.
What's going on with this auction?
You're just going to destroy your own reputation right away?
"Everyone calm down."
Facing the doubts from the audience, the beautiful host remained calm and still had a smile on her face.
"We dare to say it's an authentic work by Wang Xizhi, and naturally it has been authenticated by experts. Please rest assured. This authentic work was provided by the leader of the Ancient Martial Arts Alliance. The leader is willing to guarantee it with his own honor. Now, we will play the video of the expert authentication, please enjoy it."
As she spoke, she nodded to the staff in the audience.
A ten-minute video was immediately played on the big screen.
In the video, dozens of world-renowned experts and professors jointly authenticated the original work and confirmed from multiple angles and perspectives that the calligraphy work was indeed an authentic one.
After watching the video, and with the beautiful host saying that the leader was willing to provide a guarantee, the scene immediately became lively.
"Fuck, this is the only authentic copy in the world!"
"My God, is the first auction item going to explode like this?"
"I'll take this even if it means losing everything I have!"
After the hype was over, the beautiful host smiled slightly and said, "The auction will begin now. The starting price is 100 million yuan, and each bid will be increased by 1 million yuan."
"One hundred and ten million!"
"One hundred and twenty million!"
"One hundred and twenty-five million!"
…
Despite the alarmingly high starting price, a large number of people soon followed suit and started bidding.
Gu Fei was ready to make some moves next year.
That is the authentic work of Wang Xizhi. Who wouldn’t want to collect it?
But firstly, he had no interest in calligraphy, and secondly, the price quickly soared to more than 200 million yuan. It seemed like a loss to spend so much money on a piece of calligraphy.
After all, such a large sum of money is enough for him to support his army for two years.
Just as he was hesitating, Mr. Yang raised his sign: "Three hundred million!"
As soon as the price was called out, everyone present looked at him.
"Hey, isn't that the former city lord? He dares to come out and move around?"
"Don't you see who's sitting next to him? That's Gu Fei, the man who just overthrew the general! He probably thinks he's found a backer."
"Three hundred million. As expected, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. He is still rich."
Jiang Jiaojiao and others on the second floor also noticed Mr. Yang, and their faces suddenly darkened.
"That old bastard dares to come out!"
"Haha, if he dares to show up, we will fight him. What are we afraid of?"
Jiang Ming snorted disdainfully, then slowly raised the sign in his hand: "Four hundred million."
From 300 million, it suddenly increased to 400 million. Everyone at the scene opened their mouths wide, but soon they all looked understood.
This is a fight between the current city lord and the former city lord!
Although the former city lord has been out of office for many years, he is still very popular. At least the people of Yangzhou City always praise him when they mention him.
The current city lord...
Therefore, it is normal for the Jiang family to be wary of the former city lord's family.
Mr. Yang didn't even look at Jiang Ming and the others, but calmly raised the sign: "Five hundred million."
Jiang Ming's brows twitched violently.
Is this old man crazy?
An authentic work of Wang Xizhi would cost a maximum of 400 million yuan. If he wanted to add more, he could only add one or two million. How could he actually add one hundred million at a time?
The price is so high that even a die-hard fan of Wang Xizhi would not be able to pay so much money!
It's going to fall into my hands!
But it would be fine if he didn't leave the stage, but if he did leave the stage in front of so many people and was scared away by Old Man Yang, that would be extremely embarrassing.
After all, everyone present was watching the battle between the former and current city lords with great interest, wanting to see who would come out on top.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ming gritted his teeth and raised the sign again: "Five hundred and twenty million."
He didn't have the courage to add another 100 million.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Yang raised the sign again: "Six hundred million."
Those three light and casual words made everyone present drop their jaws.
This is only the first item to be auctioned, and the price has soared to 600 million. What should be done with the next treasures?
While being shocked, they couldn't help but look at Jiang Ming in unison.
I want to see if this kid will continue to be serious.
Cold sweat instantly broke out on Jiang Ming's forehead.
Although he came here on behalf of the Jiang family today, he was actually spending his own money and no one would reimburse him.
This original painting could only be sold for 400 million yuan at most.
If he bid for it at a price of 600 million, wouldn't he be losing 200 million?
