Chapter 178 Auction (2)

The auctioneer's words had a long dragging tone, and he didn't directly name the first lot.

Everyone in the audience stretched their necks full of curiosity, wanting to see the style of this "door opener".

"This first lot is used as an opening prize, and it is not in the auction brochure."

"I'm a little curious, what's the treasure under the red hijab."

Chen Tian tilted his neck slightly and watched the auctioneer put the plate in the middle of the display stand.

Only this kind of auction with its own guessing color makes him slightly interested.

"It looks like a hat in profile?"

Lin Huaye on the side guessed.

Chen Tian also nodded in agreement, because the arched shape is really similar to the hat.

It's a bit like a medieval crown, with a slightly protruding top, usually with a gemstone inlaid on it.

"Uh, am I the only one who thinks that this shape looks a bit like a common lid for Western food?"

Gu Yu hesitated for a second before expressing his opinion.

Chen Tian and Lin Huaye looked at each other, and they both smiled in disbelief.

This is an auction after all, how could the opening item be a dish?

Seeing that the two disagreed, Gu Yu shrugged, since he guessed anyway.

The auctioneer on the stage has created enough mystery, and will soon unveil the mystery of the first lot.

"The first lot of this auction is... a top-quality white truffle from Tuscany weighing 904 grams! Freshly picked by hand, the picking time did not exceed six hours."

"The starting price: $10000! Each increase must not be less than one thousand! Please start!"

The auctioneer gently lifted the red hijab, revealing the glass dining cover underneath, and a huge white pine appeared in everyone's sight.

Under the illumination of the light, it looks very much like a jadeized tree root nodule.

"Good! No. 78 bid 30000!"

"Here, No. 44 bids 40000!"

"..."

After a brief discussion, the bidding started shortly thereafter.

Seeing the people around shouting prices, Chen Tian smiled and said to Gu Yu: "Haha, this auction is quite ingenious. The first auction in the morning is for white truffles. Is this for breakfast first?" ?”

Gu Yu pursed his lips with a smile, listening to the ever-increasing bidding prices in the field, he just felt that the world was getting more and more absurd.

In just a few minutes, the price of this white truffle has been raised to [-] dollars, although the price increase has become the lowest price of [-] dollars.

But still outrageous.

Just such an ingredient less than two catties, the price is already close to 70 Ruanmei coins!
In the eyes of these top rich people from all over the world, it is probably normal to spend hundreds of thousands or millions to buy a breakfast ingredient that they think is of high quality.

Gu Yu, who has experienced making milk tea with black truffle and making tea with saffron with old ginseng at the old man's house, has developed a certain tolerance for this kind of extravagant consumption behavior.

In fact, when you think about it, people with a few small goals buy ingredients worth hundreds of thousands for cooking, which seems to be the same psychology as ordinary people buying a potato and cooking at home.

It's just that the public doesn't usually have access to these, so they feel extravagant.

For these people, this is just a very ordinary life.

No, if it's just a piece of white truffle, the price should be a bit high.

Like, average family buys a Boston lobster?

Gu Yu is still thinking about it, but the bidding in the field has ended.

"11 times!"

"11 twice!"

"11! Deal!"

The auctioneer dropped the hammer in his hand and made a crisp sound of "Dang!", which meant that the top-quality white truffle on the stage was bought by a buyer from Huaxia Jinling.

The Chinese people who participated in the auction and those who did not participate in the auction all had slightly smug expressions.

After all, this is China's territory, and the first lot in this international auction must naturally be won by a Chinese.

If the crooked nuts take away the good start, they will inevitably be laughed at by these crooked nuts with their nostrils upturned.

Even if it's not a joke, they must say a few words behind their backs, the Huaxia people don't have as much money as they do.

Most of them like to fight for such nonsensical vanity.

"11, it's still a dollar, tsk, it's really rich."

The old man who had been on the sidelines looked at the upturned rich businessman who blushed happily after winning the first prize behind him, and said something with a smile.

At first glance, this person belongs to the kind of nouveau riche. Naturally, he bought this white truffle not because of the so-called taste and texture, but simply because he wanted to show off his wealth.

For these nouveau riche, they have money, but they don't have the sense of being recognized as a rich man.

The rich who have really worked hard on their own will basically not accept these people into their circle.

And they spend their lives desperately to buy luxury goods and follow suit.

The purpose is naturally to integrate into the circle of real rich people.

However, the more this is the case, the more those rich and powerful people who really have background look down on them.

"..."

Gu Yu glanced at Mr. Chen speechlessly.

In terms of wealth, how many people in China are richer than his old man?

A piece of old wild ginseng that is usually soaked in water and eaten is worth tens of millions!
As a result, at the auction, it was said that someone else spent 11 knives to buy a white truffle and had money...

Of course, he just thought about this kind of complaint in his heart and didn't say it.

He also knew that the old man disdained to be compared with this kind of upstart.

The auction on the stage is still going on.

The second lot is a huanghuali reclining chair among the classical furniture of Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the price is also surprisingly high.

In less than 3 minutes, a high price of 300 million was paid by enthusiastic Chinese buyers.

At the auction, as long as the words rosewood and huanghuali are stained on the furniture, the price will never be lowered.

The old man seemed a little interested in the reclining chair, he raised his eyes and glanced twice, but quickly lowered his eyes again.

"Old man, do you have any intention to bid? At present, the price of this lot has not reached the standard line. If it can be auctioned at the current price, it is still very cost-effective."

Lin Huaye, who had nothing to do at the side, noticed the old man's movement, and asked a question quickly.

In the end, Chen Tian just shook his head slightly, and said, "Don't buy it, it's not as good as my 3000 million one."

Lin Huaye: "..."

Gu Yu: "..."

Now the two of them completely understood that the old man had absolutely no intention of spending a penny on any items other than the snake head.

Now that the old man has made his statement.

Naturally, the two of them would not be boring themselves, so they both found things to do on their own.

Gu Yu took out his mobile phone, and discussed the company's latest arrangements with Boss Park and the others in the dormitory group.

Although the dormitory group is called the dormitory group, it is actually almost the same as the board of directors.

Because Xinyue was also drawn into it.

There is also a Fetion group, where both Kang Jia and Hu Xiaoya are in the group.

In the future, there is a high probability that it will become a large group of employees.
