Chapter 323 Bid

However, more people stayed at their seats .

Detian Auction Company was the largest auction company in the capital, and all of the objects shown at today’s auction were expensive . Only two or three of them were worth less than several million yuan, and most were worth over ten million yuan . There were even two objects which were worth over a hundred million yuan .

“The sixth auction item to be auctioned is Xu Beihong’s The Injured Lion . This picture was created in 1938, when invaders from Country R occupied most of our country . Our country was mourning, and our people suffered . Xu Beihong was in great grief and anger when he painted The Injured Lion . The lion in the painting looks back and contains infinite depth of meaning . He wrote on the back of the painting: When our country was in trouble, I met Mr . Lin Ruo and his guests . I painted this to express my sadness . This painting is a combination of realism and romanticism . Our country is known as the ‘Sleeping Lion’ of the East, and it had been invaded by Country R . Afterwards, the ‘Sleeping Lion’ had become a wounded male lion . From the painting we can see that the injured lion that is glaring backwards is ready to fight . ”

Speaking of that, everyone shared the same hatred against Country R . The grudge between this county and Country R could never be solved .

“The starting price for The Injured Lion is five million yuan, and the minimum addition is one million yuan . Now let’s begin!” The minute that Zhao Xiyuan finished many started to raise their paddles to bid .

Leng Shaoting also had to buy this painting of Xu Beihong for his grandpa .

Coincidentally, Tang Yaxin was one of the bidders for the painting .

Leng Shaoting didn’t raise his paddle yet, because he planned to wait for the end .

“No . 39, twelve million yuan . ”

“No . 57, thirteen million yuan . ”

“No . 62, twenty-six million yuan . ” No . 62 was Tang Yaxin .

At this moment, nobody followed, and it was time for Leng Shaoting to raise his paddle .

“No . 32, twenty-nine million yuan . ”

No . 32 was Leng Shaoting .

Tang Yaxin was determined to win The Injured Lion, but to her surprise, No . 32 suddenly joined the bidding . Nevertheless, it was the rule that the most generous buyer got the auction item, so she couldn’t stop him .

A few rounds later, Tang Yaxin’s face started to change, because No . 32 had no intention to stop . Leng Shaoting raised his paddle without delay, as if he didn’t care about money at all .

Tang Bingsen had ordered Tang Yaxin to buy this painting as a gift for an important figure, but now it seemed hard for her to fulfill her assignment . A few rounds later, Tang Yaxin had to give up, because its price was thirty-eight million yuan now . She knew that it was almost the highest price of the painting, and it wasn’t worth making a higher bid . Although the Tang Family didn’t lack money, they didn’t want to lose it either .

In the end, Leng Shaoting got The Injured Lion at the price of thirty-eight million yuan . Gu Ning of course was happy to see Tang Yaxin fail . Leng Shaoting unconsciously helped her revenge herself .

Before long, the ninth auction item, Xiangyun Antique-store, was ready for bidding .

“Xiangyun Antique-store is the ninth auction item,” Zhao Xiyuan said . “It’s a well-known antique store with 70 years of history in the capital . If its owner’s family hadn’t been killed in a terrible accident, its owner wouldn’t put it up for auction . In other words, accidents are unpredictable, so we have to cherish the ones we love . Never regret in case you lose them . ” Saying that, Zhao Xiyuan stopped for a second, and there was sadness in the air . People were all touched by her description .

Yang Jianping asked himself . Do I regret? He indeed regretted now, but he would probably make the same decision if he went back to two years ago, because he still disliked the Zhao Xiyuan from then .

Soon, Zhao Xiyuan opened her mouth again . “Alright, there are 583 objects in Xiangyun Antique-store . Seven are real, 23 are replicas and the rest are all crafts . Its starting price is twenty million yuan and the minimum addition is one million . Let’s begin!”

The prices of the seven real antiques in Xiangyun Antique-store varied, but the foundation property of Xiangyun Antique-store was worth at least ten million yuan, so its starting price couldn’t be low .

“No . 48, twenty-one million yuan . ”

“No . 62, twenty-two million yuan . ”

… . .

Gu Ning would also wait for the end .

“No . 56, thirty-three million yuan . ”

When nobody followed up, Gu Ning started to raise her paddle . When Gu Ning raised her paddle, Leng Shaoting and the others looked at her confused, but no one asked why she did it .

“No . 31, thirty-four million yuan . ”

“No . 56, thirty-five million yuan . ”

“No . 31, thirty-six million yuan . ”

…

“No . 31, forty-six million yuan . ”

In the end, Gu Ning acquired Xiangyun Antique-store at the price of forty-six million yuan . And the auction went on . Finally, it was time to bid for the last auction item .

“Alright, we’ve successfully sold the previous 12 auction items, and now it’s time to show the last auction item, the Official Kiln Writing-brush Washer from the Song Dynasty . ” The minute that Zhao Xiyuan finished, the Official Kiln Writing-brush Washer was placed at the front . “Great, now it’s time to bid for this Official Kiln Writing-brush Washer from Song Dynasty . Its starting price is two million yuan, and the minimum addition is five hundred thousand yuan . Let’s begin!”

Many people raised their paddles without delay .

“No . 3, 2 . 5 million yuan . ”

“No . 26, three million yuan . ”

“No . 2, twelve million yuan . ”

“Twelve million yuan going once; twelve million yuan going twice; any more bids? Twelve million yuan going thrice . Sold!” Zhao Xiyuan announced, “Congratulations! No . 2 gets the washer . ”

The Official Kiln Writing-brush Washer wasn’t one of the most expensive items among the auction items; the most expensive one was sold at the price of over a hundred million yuan .

The auction finished after Zhao Xiyuan made a short closing speech .

“Come on, let’s go dine at the Fenglin Mountain Villa . I already made the reservation yesterday,” Xu Jinchen said .

There were many famous restaurants under the name of the Xu Family, but Xu Jinchen wanted to take Gu Ning to a new place . In addition, Fenglin Mountain Villa was located halfway up the mountain and had a beautiful view .
