The first auction item to be successfully auctioned was a silver necklace.
The owner of this necklace is the nephew of the current queen, the Duke of Kent.
In theory, the silver necklace is not a big deal, but this one is obviously different. There are eleven silver pieces on it, and each piece is inlaid with miniature photos of the queen, her husband, and nine children.
This is a special product for the British royal family, and the price is naturally high.
The second auction item is also the British royal family. It is a special-edition magazine about the royal family. The picture on the cover is hand-painted by the royal family painter, and the words are made of gold powder. The original magazine looks shiny and high-grade. .
As a result, a hundred thousand pounds made this magazine the most expensive magazine in the world.
Yang Huan found out that both items had something to do with the British royal family, and felt a little strange.
"Why are you auctioning noble items? Don't these all have to be cherished?"
Charlene Laheri obviously didn't understand this kind of thing, but Zhuang Ziqing knew better.
"Don't look at the members of the royal family and nobles, all of them are beautiful in front of others, but in fact, many of them are too poor."
"How do you say?" Yang Huan was most interested in this secret.
"It's like the Duke of Kent. This is not the first time he has auctioned off these collections. He sold a chair used by George III for a hundred thousand pounds. He is now auctioning his ancestral collection. Pin to live."
Yang Huan heard it interestingly, "Really poor like this?"
"Who said no?" Zhuang Ziqing also found it funny. These nobles are in front of others, which one is not personable?
Who could have imagined that there was such a desolate look in the dark?
"They live in the palace, and the annual rent is as high as £120,000. If they have no money to pay the rent, they have to auction things. If they have no money to live, they have to auction things. Do you want to participate in such a banquet? Yes, you have to spend money."
Yang Huan understood this and nodded.
Didn't these two beauties next to them all go to order dresses for the banquet?
"In the circle of the royal family and nobles, it is actually very comparable. The caring people will remember what clothes you wore last time. If you meet you next time, you will still wear the same clothes. Sorry, you will become someone else's private joking conversation. ."
Wow, it turns out that nobles are also virtues!
Yang Huan shook his head, how much the scene is really costly.
It seems that it is really not easy to hold up the hat of the nobleman these years.
"You see that they often hold gatherings of nobles and invite some wealthy people to participate. In fact, it is for auction. They say that they will give out part of it for charity. How much is it possible?"
Yang Huan couldn't help nodding.
It's no wonder that many Sir Alex Fergusons just came to find themselves through the back door, wanting to waive the £100,000 entrance fee.
It turns out that these are a bunch of poor ghosts!
Even if they are killed, they will not be allowed to join the club, and it loses the style of Southampton membership!
"However, for the rich, this is also the most advantageous shortcut to enter the inner circle of upper-class society, and buying this auction item at a high price can be regarded as giving the owner face and friendship with each other. Need it."
Yang Huan could see it through.
These days, wherever you go, you are rich to be an uncle!
At this time, the emcee of the auction finally revealed the third auction item.
"This is a piece of warm jade from ancient China. The longer it is worn, the warmer it will be. It is also engraved with ancient Chinese characters. It comes from the collection of the Duke of Bedoud for decades. The auction price starts at 50,000 pounds! "
Following the words of the emcee, everyone turned their eyes to a piece of red jade pendant on the stage that was probably a little smaller than the palm of their hand.
This jade pendant looks very simple, but it is still very round and crystal clear. It is a treasure.
"I gave fifty thousand pounds!"
"Fifty-three thousand pounds!"
"Fifty-five thousand pounds!"
"Sixty thousand pounds!"
"Sixty-five thousand pounds!"
"70 thousand pounds!"
"Eighty thousand pounds!"
The auction price began to rise steadily, but the farther behind, the fewer bidders and the longer hesitation.
After all, such a red jade pendant, who knows the origin?
If it weren't for the popularity of Chinese culture in the past few years, few people are really interested in shooting.
Yang Huan looked at the jade pendant, leaned over, and asked, "Ziqing, can you see what it is?"
Zhuang Ziqing shook her head, "I didn't see it."
Yang Huan tweeted twice, "Looking at people who have treasured them for decades, it shouldn't be too bad."
Zhuang Ziqing listened to what he said, and then looked at him with a pair of eyes wickedly staring at herself, as if asking, can you take this as a gift?
"I think it's pretty good, not shabby."
Yang Huan was happy when he heard it, and directly raised his hand and shouted loudly: "One hundred fifty thousand pounds!"
Everyone in the audience was shocked.
One and two turned their heads one after another, and they were a little dumbfounded when they saw Yang Huan raising his right hand.
I only got 80,000 in the photo, but you called 150,000, and you killed it!
Good deed, this is too willful, right?
Zhuang Ziqing is full of sweat, brother, can we keep a low profile?
On the contrary, it was Charlene Laheri, who smiled, accustomed to Yang Huan's style.
The emcee swept the crowd around, "This gentleman paid 150,000 pounds, is there anyone higher than him?"
No one answered, this is already the highest price!
"I count three, three... two... one... deal!"
With that hammer down, the highest auction price of £150,000 so far was born.
Immediately, someone respectfully sent the wooden box full of red warm jade to Yang Huan.
As for money, those who can walk in here are afraid that they can't afford it?
The wooden box is very finely crafted and the carving is very good. It seems to be an antique from China.
But as a layman of antiques, Yang Huan couldn't see it at all.
Let alone him, which group of foreigners can tell?
Open the box, there is a warm jade inside, which is as red as blood, put it in the palm of your hand, as if you feel the temperature of the human body, making it more vivid.
"Good fellow, not bad!" Yang Huan looked at it and liked it.
The gift that was photographed for 150,000 pounds is a collection that has been passed down by the British royal family and the duke family for decades. Can it be worse?
"I put you here!"
Yang Huan handed it over to Zhuang Ziqing.
"Why send me here?"
"Gifts for your grandfather, leave them with you, aren't they the same as mine?"
What Yang Huan dislikes the most is to bring things, which is troublesome.
But when Zhuang Ziqing heard this, it meant another meaning. Aren’t we two members of a family? Who is with whom?
She blushed and accepted it.
If no one beside the young couple was whispering, the atmosphere in the venue became warm.
"This Chinese is so rich, £150,000, just like paper."
"Yes, look at his bold appearance, he is too wealthy."
"I read the newspaper and said that he earns several million pounds a day, and of course he doesn't care about this little money."
"Several millions of pounds? Really?"
"Of course it's true. Don't you use an Apple phone? Go to the Apple Store and look down on the revenue list. He made the top three games. You said that making money is not making money?"
"Wow, that's awesome!"
"The queen all plays his game, can she not be bullish?"
"No wonder, no wonder, it seems that in the future, I really have to fawn on him!"
"That is, they have money, and they can't spend it all!"
...
There was a lot of discussion in the venue, and everyone was marveling at Yang Huan's wealth.
But some people are not convinced at all.
"This has a lot of money. A red jade pendant was sold for 150,000 pounds. He seems to be afraid that others will not know that he is rich. He looks like a nouveau riche, unbearable!"
Lord Hunter turned his head angrily and stared at Yang Huan in the back row fiercely.
He has not forgotten the humiliation Yang Huan gave him just now.
Even, let him lose face in front of so many nobles in the upper class, he hates this tone!
"People are rich and willful, what can be done?"
Another nobleman sitting next to him said with a smile.
"That is, none of us has money, so we can only envy it on the sidelines."
"I think he is quite rich and powerful, and he made it clear tonight that he is going to show off. It is better to raise the price and suppress his arrogance." Someone suggested.
"Well, that's a good idea!" Lord Hunter echoed.
"I also think it's good that we can't let a Chinese person be so arrogant in our territory!"
"Yes, we have to press him down and let him know how good we are."
"Okay, just do it!" Lord Hunter turned his head and glanced at Yang Huan again.
At this moment, Yang Huan was among so many people and noticed his malicious eyes.
Lord Hunter made a provocative gesture at him, as if saying, "I'm fighting you, I have the ability, let's make gestures."
Yang Huan immediately smiled and nodded, and made a thumbs-down humiliating gesture at him, making Lord Hunter smoke from seven holes.
"What are you doing?" Charlene Laheri noticed Yang Huan's gesture.
Yang Huan laughed, "It's nothing, I just met one."
Charlene Laheri looked in the direction of Yang Huan just now, and saw Lord Hunter's provocative eyes and actions.
"He is deliberately trying to anger you!"
Zhuang Ziqing also noticed, "Yes, don't be fooled!"
Only Yang Huan can make her and Charlene Laheri agree.
Yang Huan smiled, "Don't worry, I have a sense of measure. Fighting for wealth with me?"
Speaking of this, Yang Huan smiled arrogantly, "Don’t he know that my Master Huan lacks everything, but is not short of money? It just so happens that I am having a headache, making so much money every month, how to spend it? When you are done, I will play with them!"
Zhuang Ziqing and Xia Lin Laheri looked at each other without a spark this time, and they both saw the worry in each other's eyes.
Does this guy want to be foolish?
Soon, another blockbuster auction item was picked up on the auction stage.
A diamond brooch that was born in 1880, made up of diamonds to form the pattern of the English alphabet [], inlaid on a gold product, looks very luxurious and aristocratic.
The price of this auction item is also the highest in the audience, starting from 100,000 pounds, and 5,000 pounds at a time.
This time the whole audience was excited.
It can be seen that the things at auction are becoming more and more interesting.
But on the other hand, it is not difficult to see that some aristocrats are indeed too poor, hoping to live by auctioning their ancestral properties.
"The auction starts now!"
With the command of the emcee, all the people ready to go in the audience were enthusiastic.
"One hundred thousand pounds!"
Almost at the same time, a dozen people rushed to shout out the low price of 100,000 pounds.
But in the crowd of people, someone shouted another price, which seemed abrupt.
"Five hundred thousand pounds!"
For a time, the audience was deadly silent.
Everyone was stunned.
After two or three seconds, he turned his head around, looking for the person who made the sound.
In the end, everyone's eyes fell on the last row.
Yang Huan raised his right hand high and smiled.
Obviously, it was the £500,000 he called out just now~EbookFREE.me~Wow, it's him again! "
"Too rich!"
"Yeah, half a million pounds? Isn't this too outrageous?"
"Those are broken diamonds, not worth such a high price, even if they are used exclusively by the royal family, they are at most about 300,000 pounds."
"I can only say that he is too capricious!"
There was a lot of discussion, but Lord Hunter was dumbfounded at this table.
Five hundred thousand pounds.
Kill the audience directly, who can get such a high price?
The other three people all looked at Lord Hunter all at once, and he was the richest person at this table.
Lord Hunter hesitated too, but when he turned his head and saw Yang Huan's provocative gesture at him, his heart suddenly became angry, and he raised his right hand high. ()
