Chapter 307 Chapter 305 A kick
It was not just Xu Youyou who did not expect that the Gu family in Hong Kong would do the opposite and put the most important treasure first for auction. Many guests present, even those who knew the Gu family's style, showed surprise on their faces at this time.
"It seems that the new generation of Gu family's leading figure is smart. At least in this way, it can sell well to everyone, indicating that their Gu family is really going to return to the top wealthy family." Lu Jingyao commented.
Xu Youyou nodded gently and looked at the woman on the field introducing the collection to everyone present in a gentle voice.
Because it is the most important treasure, the stories related to it are always particularly tortuous and bizarre. Of course, few people at the scene believed this so-called "story".
Most of the people at the scene were buyers, but there were also several agents sent by buyers who were not convenient for personal contact. With this sudden change, several agents naturally rushed to contact the customer. Gu Jiuyan spoke slowly on the stage, which made it easier for the agent to contact the outside world.
This explanation lasted fifteen minutes, and before it even started, the price continued to rise.
By the time Lu Jingyao raised his sign, it had soared to 800 million.
Because of his own end, many people present hesitated to raise their signs.
But some people are particularly firm: "Xu Youyou's eyes have always been vicious. Since Lu Jingyao has fallen in love with this treasure, then Jiu has become true."
The original calligraphy of Wang Xizhi can be said to be a masterpiece. They have never seen the second one else. Even if the other party is the richest man, they want to fight for it at this time.
Lu Jingyao was not panicked at all when facing the competition between these people. The money in his pocket seemed to be unable to be paid.
After a wealthy businessman in the Hong Kong city offered "1.2 billion", Lu Jingyao chose to speed up and said, "1.5 billion."
The entire venue suddenly became quiet.
The Gu brothers and sisters did not get involved in this auction item from beginning to end. After all, the purpose of their trip was not to calligraphy. Even if they knew that this original work of Wang Xizhi might be something Xu Youyou liked, they would not dare to rob it.
If they really make a quote and Lu Jingyao doesn't follow, the price is definitely not something they can afford.
Even though it has reached an unprecedented high price, some people still choose a new round of bids: "1.6 billion."
Gu Jiuyan, who was hosting the auction on the stage, saw the price, his eyes flashed slightly and looked at Lu Jingyao immediately.
Lu Jingyao did not disappoint her: "Two billion."
Whispers immediately came from the venue. Looking at the sky-high numbers on the big screen, they couldn't help but discuss whether it was worth it.
Even Xu Youyou heard complaints from behind: "Is Lu Jingyao so rich in cash? Can such a large amount of money be taken out immediately?"
Except for the entourage, the invited persons, all have a net worth of tens of billions at least.
However, 10 billion assets and 10 billion cash flow are completely different. There are many people who can’t afford 100 million cash, but they can’t afford 100 million cash.
When the price is high enough, some people also questioned the same as Liu Xiangyi: "Is it worth it just for a calligraphy?"
Even Liu Xiangyi himself opened his eyes wide at this time and leaned into Xu Youyou's ear and whispered: "Do you really want to buy it? Boss, Mr. Lu really has to spend so much money to buy this pile of paper?"
Xu Youyou looked at her eyes wide open and cute, and asked with a smile, "Do you think you can't buy it?"
Liu Xiangyi was full of confusion: "Although I think... this is... Mr. Lu's money... but... I always feel that this money should not be spent like this..."
When Liu Xiangyi was struggling, someone present had a slightly raised mouth.
The Red Dragon King looked at Lu Jingyao's offer and felt that all the discomforts he had encountered during this period seemed to be about to disappear. As long as Lu Jingyao buys this treasure...
"Two.1 billion."
The latest quote suddenly came out on the screen on the scene.
Even though the Red Dragon King knew that someone else had issued the latest offer, he was not panicked at all.
Lu Jingyao was about to continue following the price, but Xu Youyou suddenly grabbed him.
"Don't worry." Xu Youyou said softly.
Before Lu Jingyao could ask her why she said that, she saw Xu Youyou asking Liu Xiangyi for a strange question.
"I asked you to bid for this calligraphy work. If the bid price is less than 5 billion, I will reward you with 50 million. Faced with the current price of 2.1 billion, do you plan to continue to follow?" Xu Youyou asked.
Liu Xiangyi's first reaction was: "There is such a good thing in the world?"
Xu Youyou's serious expression on his face showed that she was here, and Liu Xiangyi couldn't help but think carefully.
At this time, Gu Jiuyan spoke, "The first time 2.1 billion..."
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
Before Gu Jiuyan fell into the filming, Liu Xiangyi said, "I won't buy it because I don't think I can't buy it. I may lose 50 million, but I can't let my boss lose more than 2 billion."
Xu Youyou turned to Lu Jingyao and said, "I don't want it anymore."
Lu Jingyao paused: "Don't you like it very much?"
Xu Youyou raised her head slightly and said, "You want to buy this calligraphy to make me happy. If I am unhappy after buying it, it will become the unhappy of the two of them. I believe Xiao Liu's judgment. What she thinks is that there must be some flaw that is not known to outsiders."
Lu Jingyao seemed to be convinced by her, but he really didn't follow the price.
Gu Jiuyan on the stage raised his hammer and patted her, saying congratulations, but there was a little regret in her expression. It seemed that the current price did not meet her psychological expectations.
However, the person who bought the auction item suddenly stood up and looked at Lu Jingyao, and asked, "Why don't you follow me?"
Lu Jingyao said casually, "I suddenly didn't want to take pictures."
A hint of embarrassment flashed across the buyer's face and said, "I'm willing to sell it to you for 2.1 billion, okay?"
Lu Jingyao shook his head. Since Xu You didn't want him to buy this collection, even if it was the original work of Wang Xizhi, he could only miss it.
The buyer was bitter and went to find the next person: "I...I just wanted to raise the price and make fun of it..."
It’s not that the buyer insists on causing trouble on such an occasion, but that he has a bad relationship with Lu Jingyao and is a rich family. Over the years, his family has been using Lu Jingyao to spur him.
Even though the two did not have a direct conflict, he still remembered Lu Jingyao in his heart.
Lu Jingyao had raised the price by hundreds of millions of dollars, and everyone present felt that he was determined to win the "Lanting Preface". The buyer thought that he would give Lu Jingyao a little loss, which was also a lesson for him. After all, he raised the price several times before this time, and Lu Jingyao accepted it at all.
Now that Lu Jingyao has withdrawn the sign, the buyer can't afford 2.1 billion yuan at all, and is unwilling to pay 20% of the liquidated damages. He is looking for people everywhere, but although the auctions were very lively before, no one is willing to take over at a high price.
"I...I will never dare again next time...a liquidated damages of 400 million yuan..."
