Vol V Chapter 45
"The second bidder is Mr. Zhao Dongyun. His bid is 2.1 billion!”
Everyone in the auction hall was shocked!
In this kind of auction, it was fine to bid. If there was a situation where they could not come up with money after bidding, although they would only receive a portion of the penalty, their reputation would be ruined!
In the future, who would still want to associate with such a person who did not keep his word and spoke nonsense?
In the eyes of the leaders of these large families, a billion was nothing compared to reputation.
In other words, Zhao Dongyun had really paid more than 40 times the price for this 24-kilogram agarwood wood, which might only be worth 50 million yuan, for his daughter?
This was too crazy!
Upon hearing the price, Zhou Wenlong raised his eyebrows and shrugged nonchalantly.
He was indeed just here to join in the fun. The main reason was that he had a good personal relationship with Bai Ze and knew that Bai Ze's taste was not low.
The item that Bai Ze wanted to bid for must be something good. Even if Bai Ze had already said that it was just to make his daughter happy, Zhou Wenlong wouldn't completely believe it. Therefore, he offered the ideal price in his heart.
He didn't care whether he could take it down or not.
After Zhao Dongyun's bid was revealed, Zhou Wenlong was shocked. At the same time, he confirmed that what Bai Ze and Zhao Dongyun said wasn't a cover-up.
These two old fellows really bought it for their daughter!
Beside Zhao Dongyun, Lin Tian secretly clicked his tongue.
Was this the heroic spirit of a leader of a large family?
Or rather, was this the Little White World? Wasn't the family assets set by this dog author a little too ridiculous?
He spent more than two billion on a gift for his daughter.
In his previous life, Lin Tian did not dare to imagine that such a "spectacular" situation would occur in a small auction.
What kind of concept was 2.1 billion?
This is likely to be the highest price in the Chinese auction
And the auction item was just an ordinary agarwood!
Of course, Lin Tian himself knew that the true value of this thing was definitely not worth 2.1 billion, but the others did not know!
Zhao Dongyun could spend 2.1 billion yuan without knowing it at all. He was only happy for his daughter.
It was indeed quite ridiculous!
Zhao Dongyun had really put in a lot of effort, but it was quite strange. Why did Shang Chan and Zhao Mengmeng like this thing? It looks pitch-black. If it were me, I wouldn't buy such a thing no matter how much money I had without knowing that there was incense inside!
Damn it, I'm even more flustered now. Zhao Dongyun dotes on his daughter so much. If he finds out what Shang Chan and Zhao Mengmeng did to me, he won't just kill me, right?
Lin Tian looked calm on the surface, but he was extremely flustered in his heart. He looked at Zhao Dongyun's back with a little fear.
There was nothing he could do about it. Both of his old father's daughters had had some messy matters with him.
Although it wasn't too much, Lin Tian didn't take the initiative.
But who knew what crazy things Old Zhao would do to protect his daughter!
Hearing Lin Tian's thoughts, Shang Chan and Zhao Mengmeng's faces turned red at the same time.
Shang Chan recalled the night when she was at Lin Tian's house, the ten minutes in the underground secret room in the backyard of Cicada Pavilion, and the solitude in the car after leaving the Zhao family.
The more she recalled, the redder Shang Chan's face became. Her fair neck was tinged with pink.
Unknowingly, she seemed to have placed her entire heart on Lin Tian. She was no longer like the resolute, capable, and cold female president.
However, Lin Tian's inner thoughts also reminded her that before she completely understood the situation and before the threat of Jiang Yifeng was completely eliminated, she really shouldn't find more trouble for Lin Tian.
For example, his own father
Shang Chan could not guarantee that if her father knew about those things, he would not do anything overboard to Lin Tian.
Even if Zhao Dongyun listened to his advice, he would probably not be able to help but question Lin Tian in private, right?
Thinking of how Lin Tian didn't know what to do in front of his father, Shang Chan's heart ached.
This cold and aloof CEO, who usually did not speak to anyone and would not lose his cool even if he suffered heavy losses in a business war, was completely unaware of how childish his current mentality was.
She was even worried that Zhao Dongyun would be fierce to Lin Tian.
If Zhao Dongyun knew what Shang Chan was thinking, he would probably be so angry that he would have a heart attack.
He should have said something like,""My daughter has grown up and is siding with outsiders."
......
Thinking of this, Shang Chan gently moved her chair back to Zhao Dongyun's side.
What she was thinking was, if Bai Bing-Er was willing to look, then let her look. Anyway, there was nothing to lose by looking.
However, if Lin Tian was targeted by his father because of this, it would be really bad.
Zhao Dongyun heard the sound of the chair moving and turned his head to see Shang Chan return to his side. He was instantly relieved!
He thought Shang Chan was moved by his offer of 2.1 billion and was willing to come back to accompany him.
Little did they know that Shang Chan was only protecting Lin Tian.
Zhao Mengmeng and her sister had the same mentality.
She looked at the other side. Jiang Yifeng's expression was gloomy. It was obvious that he was not paying attention to her. Therefore, she moved her chair and returned to Zhao Dongyun's side.
Zhao Dongyun laughed out loud!
Her two little quilted jackets had run away not long ago. They ran to Lin Tian's side and seemed to have a different attitude towards this kid.
But what about now?
Wasn't the little cotton-padded jacket back?
While Zhao Dongyun was secretly happy, he never thought that Shang Chan and Zhao Mengmeng were his daughters. How could they be moved by 2.1 billion?
The Zhao Clan belonged to Shang Chan!
It could only be said that Old Zhao's mentality had been affected by Lin Tian and Bai Ze.
......
On the right, Jiang Yifeng heard the sound of a chair moving. He looked over, but he was looking at Zhao Dongyun.
He had never cared about Lin Tian.
The reason why he looked at Zhao Dongyun was also because he did not expect this old fellow to really dare to offer such a high price!
That was 2.1 billion, not 21!
The highest basic value of this agarwood wood would not exceed 100 million. Jiang Yifeng originally thought that he had already bid 1.2 billion, but he did not expect that this was only the second shop, and it had already reached 2.1 billion!
Although the price might not be higher than Zhao Dongyun's, the rule of the secret auction was that the highest bidder would win.
Jiang Yifeng no longer had a chance.
He was extremely furious. Although Jiang Yifeng didn't know what was inside the agarwood, the senses of the Holy Physique of the Heavenly Doctor couldn't be wrong!
This treasure would definitely be of great help to his Holy Physique of the Heavenly Doctor!
However, due to various coincidences, he missed the opportunity.
The regret in Jiang Yifeng's heart was needless to mention!
He even began to complain to the organizers in his heart. Why did they use such a method?
If it was an open auction, even if he had to go bankrupt and lose the entire Feng Chen, he would definitely get this agarwood!
However, it was already too late for regrets.
Jiang Yifeng's gaze was gloomy. After a while, he gently took out his phone and dialed a number.
After sending the message, his expression returned to normal.
If you can't get it with money, then use other methods.
Jiang Yifeng also knew that the Xuanyuan family was no longer reliable. Xuanyuan Xing and Xuanyuan Qingya were even his competitors. He could only rely on other forces.
Fortunately, as the Holy Doctor's successor, he still had many trump cards.
......
Hearing Xue Xue's second bid, everyone below the stage had different reactions.
People like the Zhou family and the chairman of the Xing Hui, Luo Xiangguo, had no intention of bidding. When they saw the price, they were only surprised for a moment and then gave up.
In any case, he was not paying for it himself, and Chen Xiang was not taking it himself. He was purely watching the show.
However, it was different for the other bidders.
After Bai Ze saw Zhao Dongyun's bid, his expression darkened. He looked at Zhao Dongyun coldly and his voice was filled with unwillingness.
"Old Zhao, you really dare to spend your capital!”
"2.1 billion, are you crazy?"
Zhao Dongyun had been ridiculed and mocked by Bai Ze several times before, and he had long been holding back his anger. Now that he heard Bai Ze's unwilling voice, he immediately felt good!
"Haha! Bai Ze, oh Bai Ze, I already told you that I want this agarwood for sure. You don't believe me, let me guess how much you offered? 300 million? 500 million? Eight hundred million? Hahaha!"
Bai Ze's expression was extremely gloomy. He snorted coldly and turned his head.
Zhao Dongyun was smug for a while, but he realized that Meng Youqian, Xuanyuan Xing, and the others did not even look at him. Old Zhao suddenly felt uncertain.
Logically speaking, 2.1 billion was already a huge number. Normally, he could buy 240 catties of agarwood, let alone 24 kilograms.
However, this was a secret auction. Before the last person's bid was revealed, no one would know who the auctioned item belonged to!
Old Zhao leaned back in his seat and stopped talking.
On the stage, Xue Xue turned to look at Old Mister He, meaning, should the auction continue?
The previous items were quite normal, except for this secret auction item.
2.1 billion, this price was not right!
Old Mister He thought for a while and signaled Xue Xue to continue. Everything would be discussed after the auction ended.
At that time, even if these people didn't want to pay, he wouldn't say anything. He would only collect the penalty for breaching the contract.
It wasn't worth it to offend these big customers with just one item. Moreover, it was obvious that the premium was too high!
......
Xue Xue turned around and revealed a sweet smile. She paused for a moment before speaking.
" Mr. Zhao Dongyun has bid 2.1 billion, which is temporarily higher than Mr. Zhou Wenlong. Next, we will reveal the third bid, Mr. Bai Ze.”
"What is his bid? 2.5 billion?"
Xue Xue was shocked!
Were these people crazy?
Twenty-four kilograms of agarwood wood was only worth more than fifty million yuan. Why were these people bidding at a premium of more than forty times?
The purpose of the secret auction was to raise the price of the auction item, but it was not to raise the price in such a way.
This wasn't anything life-saving, it was just agarwood!
The 2.1 billion figure that appeared in front of her already made Xue Xue extremely surprised. But now, she realized that 2.1 billion seemed to be just the beginning.
Mr. Bai Ze, 2.5 billion!"
As soon as Xue Xue's voice was heard, the audience immediately broke into a clamor!
Among all these voices, Bai Ze's hearty voice was the clearest!
"Hahaha, Old Zhao, you're dumbfounded!”
This time, it was Zhao Dongyun's turn to suffer. His face was gloomy, and he felt like a clown ten seconds ago.
Bai Ze, this dog, actually acted to lie to him!
When he saw Zhao Dongyun's bid of 2.1 billion, Bai Ze already knew that he had won!
Even if he did not know the other people's bids, he was at least higher than Zhao Dongyun. In the end, he actually pretended that the bid was too low and looked unwilling.
After making Zhao Dongyun feel good for a while, his bid was displayed, directly beating Old Zhao back to his original state!
As the saying goes, the higher you stand, the harder you fall
Bai Ze finally understood the human heart!
This time, Zhao Dongyun's mentality completely collapsed.
Bai Ze was still mocking him.
"Sigh, I didn't expect that Old Zhao's two daughters are only worth 2.1 billion. My precious daughters are worth 2.5 billion each!”
"This agarwood has nothing to do with you, Old Zhao. Hahaha!”
The more Zhao Dongyun listened, the more annoyed he became. He simply closed his eyes.
Out of sight, out of mind!
Lin Tian sat behind him and saw these two people in their forties or fifties fighting like children. He couldn't help but find it a little funny.
But when he saw the dazzling number on the stage, he didn't think it was funny anymore.
The decisions made by the leaders of these wealthy families, even if they used such a joking tone and behavior, were all worth billions of dollars.
This kind of joke was really not something an ordinary person could afford to make.
Sigh, Bai Ze really doted on Bai Bing-er for 2.5 billion yuan. He threw it out casually. Old Zhao had lost this round!
Lin Tian sighed in his heart, like a referee.
Anyway, he wasn't the one who paid, and he wasn't the one who took the agarwood. He was happy to watch the show.
Who knew that after hearing his thoughts, Shang Chan and Zhao Mengmeng were instantly unhappy.
This pair of sisters, one was the cold CEO who had fought for a hundred billion in a business war, and the other was an innocent girl who had never left the mountains since she was young.
But at this moment, a thought appeared in their minds at the same time!
Although he had lost the first item, he could not lose the second item!
Even if they really lost, it was fine, but they couldn't let Bai Bing-er win, and they couldn't let Jiang Yifeng win!
Shang Chan spoke softly to Zhao Dongyun as both Shang Chan and Zhao Mengmeng had a strange desire to win.
"Father, I want to bid for another item later. Let me bid.”
Zhao Dongyun had suffered a loss at Bai Ze's hands and felt sorry for his daughter.
Hearing Shang Chan's words, Zhao Dongyun nodded without hesitation and said in a deep voice.
"Alright, it doesn't matter how much you spend on the next one. Dad will support you, and Zhao Corporation will support you!”
......
On the other side, Bai Bing-er heard Lin Tian's thoughts and immediately smiled.
At this moment, the woman who was filled with a lazy aura was completely unaware that her every move had been affected by Lin Tian's voice. She did not even notice the change in her aura.
She had seen through people's hearts since she was young, so how could she not see through the thoughts of Shang Chan and Zhao Mengmeng?
"You want to fight for the next item? Then I won't let you win!"
Bai Bing-Er said to Bai Ze.
"Dad, I might want another item later. Let me do it.”
Bai Ze nodded happily.
He couldn't wait to see what his daughter was interested in. Bai Bing-Er's indifferent attitude towards everything and her attitude towards everything made Bai Ze's heart ache as a father!
"Alright, alright, come here. Buy whatever you want. Our family doesn't lack money!”
......
On the other side, Meng Youqian said to his daughter Meng Xiaoling.
"Lingling, guess how much Daddy bid?”
Meng Xiaoling thought for a moment and probed softly.
"Two billion?"
Meng Youqian shook his head, looked at his daughter helplessly, and patted her head.
"Lingling, our family has nothing but money. How can you be so narrow-minded? Take a good look at Bai Bing-Er and Bai Ze.”
Meng Xiaoling's expression brightened when she heard Meng Youqian's words. She stared at Bai Bing-er without moving.
On the stage, after Xue Xue was stunned for a while, she also began to reveal the fourth bidder.
"The fourth bidder is Mr. Meng Youqian. His bid is…"
This time, even Xue Xue was stunned!
She hesitated for a moment before calling out Meng Youqian's bid.
Hearing Xue Xue's voice, the smiles on Bai Ze and Bai Bing-Er's faces froze!
