Chapter 298 The auction begins
After waiting for an hour, someone finally started complaining.
"What's going on? Why hasn't it started yet? How long do we have to wait?"
"Yeah, we've been here for an hour or two, right?"
As the complaints grew louder, a man with blue eyes and a high nose slowly walked out from behind the stage.
The man held the microphone, with a hint of arrogance on his face, and said:
"Everyone, please be quiet for a moment."
When everyone heard this, they all shut their mouths and waited for him to speak.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting. We were just taking inventory of the items to be auctioned, so we were delayed. Now, we'll start right away. Please take your seats."
After hearing the man's words, everyone in the venue was somewhat dissatisfied.
But everyone started looking for a place to sit down.
After the man saw that everyone was seated, he continued:
"It's great to see you all here. My name is Zac and I'm today's auctioneer."
Half a year ago, a deep-sea fisherman in our family was lucky enough to discover a shipwreck in the deep sea. All 100 items in this auction are from that ship."
"After we salvaged them, we immediately sent them to an authoritative agency for testing. We can confirm that these items are precious artifacts with a history of at least a hundred years."
"Among them, there are 10 top-quality treasures, which we will auction off last. I hope everyone here can find something they love this time."
"Okay, enough talking, let's officially get started. Please give me the first treasure."
As Zac finished speaking, a tall and slender foreign beauty came out.
She was wearing a gorgeous dress and holding a tray covered with red cloth.
The woman smiled and walked gracefully in front of Zac.
Zac gently lifted the red cloth, and what caught everyone's eyes was a
An irregular ruby the size of a thumbnail.
Zac smiled at everyone and said:
"Everyone, this is a very pure blood-red ruby. It has never been carved and is still in its original state. It is extremely precious. The starting price is 100 million. Each bid is 10. Interested customers are welcome to bid."
As Zac finished speaking, some people below the stage started holding up signs.
Especially the women, they all rushed to get it,
This gem has not yet been polished.
Huang Xixi is not interested in rubies, not because she is not interested, but because she has no money.
Watching those women constantly raising the price, Huang Xixi couldn't help but sigh:
"This is just the first one. There are 99 more. If they bid like this, how much will they spend today?"
In order to create an opportunity for Han Chen, An Xun forcibly pulled Huang Qiqi away from Huang Xixi.
Let Hanchen and Huang Xixi sit together.
Han Chen listened to Huang Xixi's words and tilted his head to explain to her:
"It's because it's the first one, so everyone is so enthusiastic."
"The auction house is very savvy. They put the items women like in the front, letting women or men who want to please women to heat up the place first. The items in the middle won't work."
"These are inferior products. Let them grab them first. We'll wait for the last ten."
Huang Xixi nodded when she heard this. Although what Han Chen said made sense,
But she couldn't ignore anything here.
Because she came with a purpose,
And she still doesn't know which one she needs.
Thinking of this, Huang Xixi sighed helplessly.
