Chapter 278

At the auction venue, hundreds of guests who came to participate in the auction fell silent. Buying a piece of ore at a price of more than 500 million made them feel worthless.

Everyone looked at Ji Yumei with weird eyes.

even!

Many people slandered from the bottom of their hearts: Is this the rhythm of rich people being stupid?

As an auctioneer, Zhang Xinya realized that no one wanted to raise the price, so she smiled and said, "Since there is no friend raising the price, this ore belongs to friend No. 0125. Are you going to the backstage to trade now? Or come back after the auction is over?" Background transactions?"

"Now!"

Ji Jimei got up, nodded slightly to Tang Xiu, and left the seat straight away.

However.

Her low profile bowed and nodded, causing most people's eyes to turn to Tang Xiu.

Even Zhang Xinya in front of the auction stage showed surprise. She asked her best friend Ouyang Lulu about Tang Xiu. Although Ouyang Lulu didn't say much, she was secretly shocked by the tip of the iceberg.

The auction will continue as usual.

A few minutes later, Ji Yumei returned with the soul-suppressing stone. After handing it over to Tang Xiu, she asked in a low voice, "My lord, we have already got the things we want to buy. Should we leave now? Or should we stay here?"

Tang Xiu pondered for a while, and said, "You take the Soul Requiem Stone and go first! Let Ah Wen see you off. I'll stay here to see if there are any good things."

"yes!"

Ji Jimei agreed, watched Tang Xiu glance at the Soul-Suppressing Stone, and then handed it to her. Just when she was about to leave, she suddenly remembered something, quickly took out a bank card, handed it to Tang Xiu and said, "My lord, there are still 9.5 billion in it. If you have something you like, just buy it."

Tang Xiu didn't refuse, he really didn't have any money on him. After receiving it, watching Ji Yumei leave, he secretly sighed in his heart that Ji Yumei was sensible.

Money is something outside the body.

He doesn't care about money, but now that there is a shortage of cultivation resources, he will soon have to train a group of confidantes, which also requires a lot of resources. If he has no money, it is really inconvenient for him to do many things. If it were the same as before, he would feel a little awkward if he took the money from Baiyan Restaurant. But now, he didn't feel this way anymore. After all, the materials he gave Ji Jimei to refine the elixirs were priceless treasures.

However.

Just two minutes after Ji Jimei left, Zhang Xinya on the auction stage said with a smile, "The next item to be auctioned is a thousand-year-old ginseng. As far as I know, a few months ago, Jingmen Island held In one auction, only one thousand-year-old wild ginseng was auctioned. Including this one, there were only two plants in total this year. In addition, in the past three years, there was no auction in China with a thousand-year-old wild ginseng. This thousand-year-old wild ginseng The minimum price for wild ginseng is 100 million, and each increase should not be less than 5 million. Bidding starts now."

Tang Xiu's eyes shot out brightly. He hadn't looked at the list of auctioned items before, so he didn't know what else there was in this auction besides the soul stone. When his consciousness instantly enveloped the thousand-year-old wild ginseng on the tray, his complexion changed slightly.

"Wild ginseng over three thousand years old?"

After making an instant judgment, Tang Xiu quickly grabbed his cell phone and dialed Mo Awen's number.

"boss!"

Mo Awen's voice came from the phone.

Tang Xiu said in a deep voice, "Let Ji Jimei come back."

"yes!"

After hanging up the phone, Tang Xiu's gaze was fixed on the 3,000-year-old wild ginseng.

"One hundred and fifty million!"

After more than ten seconds of silence in the auction venue, someone directly raised the price by 50 million. Many people present knew that person, the king of Hong Kong glasses, Ke Zhentao.

"One hundred and sixty million!"

Although many people know Ke Zhentao, but there are many people who are bound to get such a good thing as the thousand-year-old wild ginseng. Therefore, they are not willing to be humble at this time.

"Two hundred million!"

Ke Zhentao raised the price again.

"Two hundred and ten million!"

"Two hundred and fifty million!"

"Two hundred and sixty million!"

"Two hundred and seventy million!"

"..."

As more than a dozen people continue to increase prices,

The price of the thousand-year-old wild ginseng kept rising, and in just five or six minutes, it had broken through to 350 million. And it was still Ke Zhentao who quoted the price.

Tang Xiu glanced at Ji Jimei who had returned to the seat next to him, and said calmly: "Now the auction is a wild ginseng, no matter how much it costs, you must buy it. It is very beneficial to Yan'er."

Ji Jimei's complexion changed, and she quickly asked, "My lord, what is the current price?"

"Three hundred and fifty million!"

Ji Yumei nodded, raised her number plate and shouted, "500 million!"

"Wow..."

Following Ji Yumei's cry, the entire auction hall was in commotion. Hundreds of wealthy people who came to the auction began to whisper to each other.

"Who is that old lady? She spent 500 million to buy a stone before, and now she has increased the price by 150 million. Does she have money to burn it?"

"The value of that millennium wild ginseng is at most 100 to 200 million? She is willing to spend 500 million to buy it, what a luxury!"

"What is her identity? Why haven't I seen her before?"

"Send someone to investigate her. We must investigate her identity and background before the auction ends."

"It's a good show today! I'm not willing to spend 500 million to buy a thousand-year-old wild ginseng! So I give up."

"..."

"Six hundred million!"

In the back corner of the venue, an old man wearing reading glasses and a tunic suit suddenly raised the sign in his hand. When everyone looked at the old man, their expressions changed drastically.

Giant Lee?

No one thought that it was Giant Li who made the offer. I don't even know when Giant Li came to the auction venue!

Tang Xiu turned his head, and when he saw Giant Li, he frowned slightly. He didn't know many super rich people in Hong Kong Island, but he knew about Giant Li. After all, the legendary richest man in Asia was often seen in his photos before.

Ji Yumei just turned her head and glanced back, then raised the sign in her hand again, and said in a deep voice, "One billion!"

"What?"

All the guests in the auction venue were dumbfounded. They didn't expect that Ji Yumei would dare to snatch the thousand-year-old wild ginseng from Giant Li, and the price was raised by 400 million.

back row.

Giant Li also showed a look of surprise. He didn't expect that someone would raise the price to one billion for a thousand-year-old wild ginseng. He originally thought that buying the thousand-year-old wild ginseng with a price of 600 million would be a sure thing.

After a moment of silence, he raised the number plate in his hand again and said flatly, "1.1 billion."

"Two billion!"

Ji Yumei doesn't care about money, even if she spends money, she still wants to buy the wild ginseng that is more than three thousand years old. After all, there are not many things that are good for the owner. Once there are, let alone spending money to buy them, even if it is to rob them, or even kill them, she will go all out to do it.

Giant Li was stunned for a moment, then shook his head. He is indeed rich, two billion is just a small amount of money to him, but it is not worth it to buy a thousand-year-old wild ginseng.

He is a businessman!

He has his standards for spending money, and he will not buy things that are not worth it for the sake of competition.

The hundreds of wealthy people in the auction venue didn't know what to say at this moment. They looked at Ji Yumei's expression, full of weirdness.

No one thought that after seeing Giant Li, Ji Jimei would dare to compete with him. What's more, she didn't expect that she raised the price by 900 million all of a sudden, bringing the price of that wild ginseng to 2 billion.

Zhang Xinya was also stunned at this moment, she did not expect that the price of a millennium wild ginseng would be increased to two billion. Originally, she thought that the price of this kind of wild ginseng, reaching 500 million was already the limit. Now it seems that it is four times as much as she expected!

but.

She was still a little happy. According to the agreement between her and the auction house, she can get a commission of one thousandth of every item auctioned. If the auctioned items can reach ten times the reserve price, she will get a two-thousandth commission.

"Tonight, the commission alone is no less than eight figures, right?"

Zhang Xinya thought about it happily.

Then!

Seeing that Giant Li didn't intend to raise the price, she said, "Is there a higher price? If not, this thousand-year-old wild ginseng will belong to friend No. 0125."

Asked several times.

Seeing that no one said anything, Zhang Xinya immediately knocked on the gavel, and said with a smile, "Congratulations to friend No. 0125, who has won this thousand-year-old wild ginseng. May I ask you to go to the backstage to trade now? Or go to the backstage to trade after the auction is over?"

"Now!"

Ji Jimei stood up, bowed and nodded to Tang Xiu again, and then left her seat.

Tang Xiu did not intervene in the next auction.

Ten o'clock at night.

The auction ended, and as the guests got up one after another, preparing to leave, Zhang Xinya took off her white gloves with a smile on her face, and came to Tang Xiu. After sweeping her gaze over Ji Jimei, she stretched out her hand to Tang Xiu and said with a smile, "Mr. Tang, we meet again."

Tang Xiu nodded, and found that many people around her were looking at her, and immediately said: "Is your relative's illness cured? According to Chen Zhizhong, he has already found the medicinal materials you need."

Zhang Xinya nodded her head and said gratefully, "It's ready. Mr. Tang, thank you. If it wasn't for you, I..."

Tang Xiu raised his hand to interrupt her, turned his head to look at Ji Yumei and said, "Let Ah Wen take you to Victoria Harbour! Return to Jingmen Island immediately and put away this wild ginseng plant. When I come back, give Yan'er medicine. "

"yes!"

With respect on her old face, Ji Yumei agreed and left with Mo Awen. And Mo Awu stood beside Tang Xiu like a javelin.

Zhang Xinya looked at the back of Ji Yumei's leaving in surprise, and when she looked away, she asked curiously: "Tang Xiu, do you know that old lady? Listening to your conversation with her, it seems that between you..."

Tang Xiu said calmly: "She is my subordinate." (To be continued.)
