C503 A Country Bumpkin Entering the City and Showing off
Shi Xiaoyu deliberately used words to tease Zhang Muye. The surrounding friends also laughed softly.
Although they were afraid of the Zhao Family in Xiangjiang, they felt that the future Sect Chief of Zhao Family was not that great.
He was foolish and allowed others to ridicule him.
How could a person like him, who knew nothing about the popular circle of the upper class, belong to their circle? Even his attitude towards Zhang Muye had changed from being respectful towards Wang Dongxing at the beginning to looking down on him lightly, and even looking down on him. He couldn't help but look down on the Zhao Family of Xiangjiang behind Zhang Muye.
In fact, the legend of the Zhao Family's enormous power was only spread among the top circle of Xiangjiang, and only a few people knew about it. But it was just a rumor. In fact, the people of the Xiangjiang really couldn't sense the existence of the Zhao Family in the Xiangjiang. At least, it wasn't as influential as the four big families of Xiangjiang, because the four big families of Xiangjiang would appear from time to time. Then, whether it was politics, business, or black and white, they would occasionally display their strength.
However, this kind of strength was able to stir up the wind and clouds, shocking everyone.
On the other hand, in the Xiangjiang's Zhao Family, other than some vague legends, they were almost never seen in the political and business world of Xiangjiang. It was as if they were an invisible existence.
In short, unless they truly experienced it, in the hearts of most people, their status couldn't be compared to the four big families of Xiangjiang. At most, they were just a second-rate wealthy family, right? They could not even be considered a rich family. They could only be called rich.
However, no one would say these thoughts in front of Zhang Muye.
Fortunately, Wang Dongxing always took the initiative to speak to Zhang Muye. After all, only those who were in his circle knew the true strength of the Zhao Family. Everyone present could take it lightly. The only one who could not be taken lightly was Zhang Muye.
With Wang Dongxing's respect, no one dared to go overboard with Zhang Muye.
As the banquet went deeper, the charity auction began. After the host announced that fifty percent of the money obtained from the charity auction would be used to save poor children, the auction officially began.
Zhang Muye had no interest in this kind of auction, such as limited edition red wine, limited edition name lists, private residences, yacht and jewels. Even though Zhang Muye was now in the top circle, these extravagant things were too far away from Zhang Muye.
The first one to go on stage was a special sword that was said to be worn by the head of a certain country. Although it could not be compared to the famous General Mo Xie, it could still be considered a famous sword.
The moment the sword appeared, it immediately caused the people present to wildly bid. At this moment, as a member of the upper class of Xiangjiang, his wealth was completely exposed, and he could easily add a dozen or two hundred thousand, or even a million, without even blinking his eyes. In the end, this sword was bought by someone at the price of five million.
After that, there was a pink diamond ring that was dozens of carats. Compared to the "Ocean's Heart" that Zhang Muye had given Xia Chuchu, it was many times more beautiful. Even Zhang Muye was quite moved when he saw it.
When the diamond ring appeared, it immediately caused many women to scream. Shi Xiaoyu and Xue Bijun's eyes also lit up. Not many girls could resist the temptation of such a beautiful pink diamond!
When the auction began, the price immediately became higher and higher. In the end, the bidders became the two most powerful families in Xiangjiang, Wang Dongxing and Lin Zihao, in the arena. As the two of them increased the bid, they both showed a determined attitude. But in the end, under the constant urging of a woman in Lin Zihao's arms, Lin Zihao gritted his teeth. With the final price of 13 million RMB, he won the diamond.
Wang Dongxing said helplessly, "I originally planned to buy this pink diamond for the woman I like, but Brother Lin is even more wealthy. There's no way to compare!"
He sounded depressed. On the contrary, the girl beside Lin Zihao cheered. She saw Wang Dongxing's helpless look. Lin Zihao grinned. "It's not about money. It's about being willing and unwilling. I, Lin Zihao, love you. A man who values friendship more than his life. "
Even a fool could see the sarcasm in his words towards Wang Dongxing. However, Wang Dongxing completely ignored Lin Zihao's provocation.
After that, another Swiss gold watch, which was rumoured to have a great background, was taken out for auction. It was rumored that this watch was once worn by a European head of state. In addition to the fact that it was a treasured item, it was also won by the crowd as soon as it was put up for auction.
However, not all of these wealthy people were interested in it, and there were also many things that were being auctioned off.
On the other hand, there was a jade stone that looked quite tempting on the surface that appeared to be in the middle of the auction. A large piece of raw stone was placed on the table, and the raw stone that was cut open emitted a tempting luster. It was very attractive.
However, this place was not a professional stone gambling expert after all. The distinguished guests present were not interested in this raw stone material. And now, the real and fake of the stone gambling market, few people who were not professional gamblers recognized this raw material.
But when Zhang Muye saw this raw stone, a strange feeling suddenly spread in his heart. It was as if this stone was flashing with an excited electric current, and it was calling out to Zhang Muye's body.
Although he didn't know exactly what this feeling was, his intuition told him that he had to get the ore. This would be of great help to him!
At this time, the bidding began!
The auctioneer opened his mouth to bid 500,000. Perhaps even the auction house was not very optimistic about the raw material of this raw stone. Only a complete gambler would buy it.
However, there were some rich people present who liked to bet on stones. They felt that the raw stone was not bad, so they started bidding. Soon, the price of the raw stone of five hundred thousand was pushed to one million and five hundred thousand. It was three times the price. The one who bid the fiercest was one of Lin Zihao's followers, Green Hair. This younger brother was wealthy. It was good to bet on stones. His bid almost scared off all the bidders.
Just when Green Hair thought that his raw jade stone was all in his hands, Zhang Muye started to bid. One bid was two million!0
Green Hair bid 2.5 million, and Zhang Muye immediately bid three million!
Green Hair bid another four million!
Zhang Muye was still smiling as he said, "8 million!"
When this bid was made, the entire auction hall was in an uproar. Everyone felt that Zhang Muye was too crazy!
One had to know that even if they could produce good materials, and then polish the car with a pearl necklace or bracelet, the value was only a few million, and it was already a sky-high price for Green Hair to register over a million as the raw materials! But this guy actually directly offered eight million? Even if he really did get the best materials, processing and sculpting would only be enough to cover the cost, or at most make a small fraction of the profit.
But most of the time, the material was completely shoddy, so it would really be lost to the mother. And based on countless past experiences, the probability of the quality of the materials produced being poor accounted for most of the proportion.
