Under One Person: The frog cub gave me an insulating claw at the beginning

The old man rarely introduced younger generations. He originally thought this was a newly adopted grandson of the old man, after all, the old man had a high status in the industry.

Most importantly, he is a master of business, so people will give him some face to some extent.

But when they heard the old man say that this was his own grandson, everyone's eyes immediately changed.

If it's a grandson, he'll inherit a lot of the old man's business in the future, so they should treat this person with more respect.

"So you have a grandson, Grandpa. When did you recognize him? Why didn't you hold a wedding banquet? If you had, I could have prepared a gift for him. Even if you didn't hold one, if you let me know now, I'll still prepare something for him."

"It's a pity I didn't bring anything today. I'll definitely send a gift another day."

After this person spoke, others chimed in.

They didn't care what kind of person Feng Tianci really was.

Giving gifts is just a way to indirectly please the old man, isn't it?

"Thank you, uncles. There's really no need for gifts. Everyone here today has something to do, and it's all for the auction. Let's get started."

Although they were being polite, Feng Tianci, as a junior, couldn't simply accept these gifts; otherwise, it would certainly be considered impolite.

Besides, the things the little frog brought back are priceless, some even things that have never existed in this world before. Why would he care about things that others send him?
Therefore, he was not greedy at all, which won him the favor of that group of people.

The old man never expected his grandson to be so magnanimous. It was indeed a good thing that he didn't want the things, but even if he did, he could afford to take them.

He had given these people a lot of business opportunities, so it was only right that they give his grandson some things. But his grandson was a very sensible person and didn't want any of it.

After sitting down, Feng Tianci looked at the items on the table in front of him. There wasn't anything particularly good about them; everyone was just casually arguing about them.

Feng Tianci didn't want it, so naturally the old man wouldn't buy it for him. Of course, the old man also knew that the previous items weren't anything rare or precious.

Most people wouldn't want that.

The people sitting next to the old man were all calm and collected people in the industry, after all, they had already seen many of these rare treasures.

They originally thought that Feng Tianci was a young man, and that if he sat with them, he would definitely bid on those worthless treasures without hesitation. They were even thinking that if Feng Tianci randomly picked out something worthless, they would help him bid on it.

It was a gift, but Feng Tianci was completely unmoved. He only glanced at the stage before ignoring it.

"You said the grandson the old man found from the common people shouldn't have come from a wealthy family. Now that there's finally an auction, and the auctioneer is already talking a lot of nonsense, why isn't he interested? Has he seen something better?"

"Impossible. If he had seen something better, he wouldn't have recognized the old man. You know, with the old man's financial resources, there are very few people in the world who can compare."

“I think so too. Anyway, they can’t possibly compete with the old man in this matter, and maybe we’re just overthinking things. This young man is just pretending; he needs to pick out something very expensive.” Although they spoke softly, Feng Tianci had excellent hearing. He glanced over there, and the middle-aged men immediately shut up. They wondered if Feng Tianci could really hear them.
Anyway, it's too far away, so it's probably impossible.

Immediately, a bead appeared on the stage; the bead looked ordinary.

It's similar to marbles that kids play with; everyone thinks these things are only available at charity auctions, but they have no real value.

"Starting bid: two yuan."

When the starting price was announced, everyone laughed. Two yuan was too much for something like this, and it wasn't even made of any rare gemstones, so no one bid.

Feng Tianci felt a gaze falling on him intermittently. He looked up and quickly saw the hem of Bi Youlong's clothes. He roughly guessed what was going on.

"I'll pay 100 yuan!"

After Feng Tianci finished speaking, everyone stared at him like fools, but when the group of uncles and elders behind him heard Feng Tianci ask for a price, they wanted to raise the price.

But isn't it a bit too much to just raise the price like this? Besides, they wanted to give it to Feng Tianci, but the price was several hundred yuan, which they couldn't bring themselves to ask for.

Just as they hesitated, Bi Youlong immediately raised his sign. He believed that Feng Tianci would never bid on useless things, and that Feng Tianci always managed to find those treasures accurately, and each time they were things that looked insignificant.

Maybe this is another treasure; he has to take a picture and see it no matter what.

"I'll offer 1 yuan."

After Bi Youlong finished speaking, the room erupted in an uproar. Everyone present was a big shot, and none of them had ever seen such a bid. Moreover, the item didn't look worth much. Who was it that wanted it?

"No way, what kind of joke is this? Is this thing really worth 1 yuan? Why are these two fighting? Are they mortal enemies? But this auction is just a charity gala, and all the money will be donated."

"Who knows? Someone actually offered 1 yuan, which means there's bound to be an even higher price. Maybe we should wait and see. Perhaps it's some kind of rare treasure. Let's get someone to check it out."

"The authorities haven't provided any more favorable information either. And just now, the appraiser re-examined it, and it was found to be made of ordinary material, and it was pried off from a low-quality stone."

It is only because of its festive appearance that it is given value, but this value is not even as high as that of a pearl necklace.

Now everyone felt conflicted. The key was that with so many big names competing, they all felt a bit itchy to get in, and no one wanted to miss such a golden opportunity.

When Feng Tianci heard that Bi Youlong had followed suit, he knew that the other party would definitely fall for it, so Feng Tianci raised the sign again.

"Then I'll offer 10 yuan!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Bi Youlong raised his sign, "One million!" (End of Chapter)
