The auction was in full swing. Huo Jingchen's eyes had been dark, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Not long after, the seventh item was up for auction. It was a jade Buddha.
The entire jade buddha was half a meter tall. It was made of top-quality white jade and meticulously carved by a famous craftsman. The Buddha sat on a Lotus throne, solemn and peaceful.
Soon, the auctioneer who was hosting the auction began to give a brief introduction to the Buddha statue. The big screen in front of him played the different angles of the Buddha statue and the identification of the jade quality.
Then, the auctioneer began to bid. "This jade buddha is a treasure of the Ming Dynasty. It was once worshipped by high officials of the Ming Dynasty. Now the starting price is 80 million yuan. Each bid will be increased by one million yuan. Now, the bidding begins. "
The price of 80 million yuan was not a small number. After all, most of the auction items were donated by people. After a certain percentage was taken, the rest would be used for charity.
Not long after, people began to raise the price.
"83 million! "
"85 million! "
"88 million! "
"90 million! "
...
The voices of the people raising the price were endless. Zhao Siqing was watching the commotion when Huo Jingchen's deep voice suddenly sounded in her ear, "bid for it. "
Zhao Siqing was stunned for a few seconds before she turned to look at him and said softly, "aren't we going to bid for that embroidery? "
Huo Jingchen's eyes were deep as he said slowly, "the jade Buddha was disliked by the Old Lady, so she asked me to send it to the auction venue. "
Zhao Siqing reacted for a moment before she understood.
Was He trying to raise the price Or was he trying to set a trap for her... ...
Zhao Siqing's gaze swept past Gu Anhui's back, and she raised her paddle to raise the price.
Sure enough, Gu Anhui, who hadn't made a move after she started bidding, immediately went down to compete.
In the blink of an eye, the jade Buddha's bid had already reached 100 million, but gold had a price and jade had no price, so everyone continued to raise the price.
When the price reached 120 million, there was a brief moment of silence. The auctioneer spoke again, "is there anyone else who wants to raise the price? Number 68 bids 120 million! "
Zhao Siqing raised her paddle again, "130 million. "
A faint female voice sounded in the auction hall, and many people turned their heads to look.
Gu Anhui was no exception. She turned her head and looked deeply at Zhao Siqing, then raised the number plate in her hand, "140 million. "
Zhao Siqing was calculating in her heart. It seemed that Gu Anhui was the sucker that Huo Jingchen was going to rip off today?
But thinking about it, what old Madam Huo did not want was instantly bought back by Gu Anhui as a birthday present. She wondered how she would feel.
"Huo Jingchen, " Zhao Siqing said softly as she looked at the man beside her.
"Yes, " Huo Jingchen replied calmly.
Zhao Siqing raised her tablet and said softly, "I realized that you're really good and bad. "
Although Zhao Siqing could not see gu Anhui's expression, she could roughly guess what she was thinking.
She must have thought that the jade Buddha was a birthday present for old Madam Huo, so she wanted to compete with her no matter what. However, she probably would not have thought that the jade Buddha was an auction item sent by old Madam Huo.
Huo Jingchen smiled, grabbed her small hand, and whispered, "I have something worse. "
Zhao Siqing glanced at him, and her ears couldn't help but turn red.
On the other side, after Zhao Siqing continued to raise the bid, Gu Anhui also followed up, "180 million. "
"190 million. " Zhao Siqing continued to raise the bid.
The auctioneer's voice became more excited, "190 million! Now Number 16 bids 100 million, anyone else? ! Everyone! "
Gu Anhui raised her paddle again, "200 million. "
