Chapter 58 Phaeton Auction House

The next day, Liu Xiong called Su Zhe and asked him if he was interested in going to an auction together.

Su Zhe thought it would be interesting to go to the auction, and he also wanted to ask Liu Xiong for help with some things. So he agreed, and he asked Liu Xiong the location and time of the auction.

Liu Xiong told Su Zhe that the auction time is today, and he will come to pick up Su Zhe later.

During this time, Liu Xiong often had contact with Su Zhe, but most of them were on the phone. Su Zhe hung up the phone and went to the room to change his pajamas and put on a set of casual clothes.

Not long after, Liu Xiong called and said that he had arrived. Su Zhe greeted An Xin and the others and hurried out.

Liu Xiong's car was still the same Bentley Continental, but there was an extra driver. Judging by the driver's strong figure, Su Zhe estimated that the driver also served as Liu Xiong's bodyguard, while Liu Xiong himself sat in the back seat.

After Su Zhe came out, Liu Xiong opened the car door and let Su Zhe sit on it, and then the car started.

"Brother Liu, what are the main items to be auctioned in this auction?" Su Zhe asked.

"There are all kinds of items in the auction, including famous paintings, antiques, and gems." Liu Xiong smiled and said, "Because I went to participate alone, I was a little bored, so I went with my brother. Brother, don't you blame me? "

"How come, I'm glad Brother Liu is too late to give me the opportunity to increase my knowledge."

In the conversation between the two, they soon arrived at the destination, Phaeton Auction House.

Phaeton Auction House is the most famous and powerful auction house in the country, and there are branches of Phaeton Auction House in relatively large cities. With a high reputation and strong identification ability, the news that Phaeton auction house rarely auctions items is fake.

Led by the staff of Phaeton Auction House, Liu Xiong and Su Zhe came to a position closer to the auction table, which was specially arranged by Phaeton Auction House for Liu Xiong.

There are many people in the auction.

Soon, a middle-aged man walked onto the auction stage. He held a microphone and said, "Welcome everyone to participate in the auction held by Phaeton Auction House today. I am today's auctioneer Ye Mingzhe. Everyone presides over today's auction. This auction is based on the principles of openness, fairness, impartiality, and good faith. I hope that everyone will actively bid and wish everyone a good purchase!"

Everyone present applauded Ye Mingzhe. After everyone applauded, Ye Mingzhe began to announce the auction rules and precautions.

After such a cookie-cutter speech, Ye Mingzhe officially announced the start of the auction.

The staff on the side came up with a tray.

"First of all, the first item to be auctioned today is a topaz belt hook. The low price is 5 million. This topaz belt hook has been determined to be in the Western Han Dynasty. Now please bid."

"Five and a half million."

"Five and a half million..."

"Six million……"

In the end, this topaz belt hook was successfully photographed for 10 million yuan, and the transaction price was twice as high as the low price.

Liu Xiong also made an offer, but it seemed that he was not very interested in this topaz belt hook, and stopped when the price reached 8 million.

Then the second auction item was a blue-and-white porcelain vase from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty.

One item after another is put up for auction,

There are porcelain, famous paintings, and diamond necklaces designed by masters. Every item is a successful auction, no pass-through.

Su Zhe just watched silently, and he never offered a price. He didn't have much interest in these things, and he didn't know how to appreciate them. It was just a waste of money to buy them.

It is normal for him not to take any auction items, but after the auction of more than ten auction items, it is a bit strange that Liu Xiong has not auctioned any of them. Su Zhe came to the auction and was called by Liu Xiong. Although Liu Xiong occasionally makes bids, the prices are not high.

After auctioning an ancient painting, the staff did not take out the auction item.

"The next auction item is believed to be the target of most people who come to the auction this time," said auctioneer Ye Mingzhe.

And when Liu Xiong, who had been careless just now, heard this, he immediately sat up straight and stared at the auction table. Su Zhe believes that the next auction item is Liu Xiong's target for the auction.

Ye Mingzhe also didn't dare to sell off, and hurriedly asked the staff to bring up the auction items.

"The next auction item to be auctioned now is this wild ginseng, which has been identified as more than 420 years old, weighs 82.6 grams, and has a low price of 6 million. Please bid now." Ye Mingzhe opened the box and held it up Show it to the people below.

"Eight million." A middle-aged man dressed as a businessman shouted, directly raising the price by two million.

"I'll pay 8.5 million." A gray-haired old man bid.

Although Liu Xiong was very concerned about the 420-year-old wild ginseng at the beginning, but after the official shooting started. Instead, Liu Xiong calmed down and did not bid.

Soon the price broke through to 9.5 million.

This is someone shouting: "10 million." Raising the price to the 10 million level, today's auction items are all below 10 million except for the first one that reached 10 million.

The bidder looked to be a middle-aged man in his forties, about the same age as Liu Xiong. Depending on the situation, he is arrogant and heroic.

The middle-aged man still looked in the direction of Su Zhe's side after bidding, and Su Zhe had an intuition that the middle-aged man was looking at Liu Xiong.

And Liu Xiong also started bidding at this time: "Eleven million."

"Twelve million." The middle-aged man called out, the middle-aged man's name was Wang Anguo, and he was bound to win this man. His family business is in the field of medicinal materials, which is similar to Liu Xiong's. It is an upstart in the medicinal materials industry. At present, the biggest enemy is Liu Xiong's Liu's enterprise. Wang Anguo's industry does not have the heritage of Liu's enterprise as a century-old brand, and everything is worse than Liu's.

As far as wild ginseng is concerned, Liu's enterprise has wild ginseng with more than 300 years as the treasure of the town, while Wang Anguo's enterprise does not have wild ginseng with more than 100 years. Therefore, no matter how much it costs to have 420-year-old wild ginseng this year, Wang Anguo will take pictures.

"Thirteen million." Although Liu Xiong didn't have Wang Anguo's will to get this wild ginseng, if it was possible, he would not let this good thing go.

"Fourteen million." Wang Anguo continued to bid.

By this time, basically only the two of them were left earning, and no one else was involved.

Liu Xiong frowned, and after thinking for a while, he shouted, "15 million."

"16 million." Wang Anguo did not hesitate to add another million.
