A complete guide to Taotie's "meal"

Chapter 60 A Picture of a Colorful Phoenix

On the other side, Andy and Bai Yi were sitting in the living room. Andy's invitation card should be relatively good, and their seats are relatively in the front row. The VIP seat is on the second floor, and people on the second floor have also taken their seats. There are about a dozen people in total, each in a different room, and there should be no need for any masks.

Looking at the pitch-black glass houses, Bai Yi felt a wave of doubts in his heart. He had an intuition that someone was watching him all the time—maybe above, or anywhere, there was a line of sight that was keeping close to him. Staring at him closely, but among the many masks, he couldn't find this wandering sight.

Andy also found that he was a little restless, so he couldn't help asking: "What's the matter, Bai?"

Bai Yi slowly looked away, and then said: "It's nothing." His face was gloomy - obviously he didn't want to talk to him, and at the same time, the auctioneer had already stepped onto the stage.

This is a very charming woman, about 30 years old, with a graceful figure, extremely enchanting, with big wavy long curly hair, a little red lips always smiling, but a pair of sharp eyes.

"Not much to say, Anna knows what everyone is here for, so..." She curled her lips into a smile, slowly lifted up her red dress and took two steps back, and said in her mouth, "Go to the first lot."

The first lot was carried out by four young and strong young men. It was a big bronze cauldron with dragon patterns all around. The eyes of all the people present couldn't help but light up when they looked at it.

An old collector couldn't hold back his excitement and held up the plaque first, which made Anna smile slightly, and said: "Bronze imperial tripod with dragon patterns inlaid with turquoise in the late Shang Dynasty, and bronze tripods with dragon patterns in the late Shang Dynasty. The shape is for the imperial court, thick and dignified, green like melon skin, shiny like jade, and the longan is inlaid with turquoise. The reserve price of the auction is 650 million, and the price increase every time is no less than 50. Please bid."

The old collector held up the sign again, and said: "750 million." It seems that he wants to solve all the difficulties at once and win this dragon-patterned bronze tripod. However, there are quite a few people who have taken a fancy to this bronze tripod , although everyone had reservations in the first round of the game, but when raising the price of the lot, there were occasionally a few who liked to watch people make trouble.

After he said the price, someone immediately held up a sign and said: "800 million." Although his voice was equipped with a voice changer, it still had a bit of immaturity unique to young people, and it seemed that it was worse than his shell. Much smaller.

Bai Yi couldn't help looking back, and recalled it in his heart. After Andy swiped his card for him, he told him that the balance in his card was less than 800 million. It's generous, but judging from Mr. Gu's daily consumption, he feels a little tight.

The point is, why did Andy bring him here, the first lot was just a warm-up, and he couldn't even afford the first one, so he could only use his ears and eyes.

Thinking this way, he heard another bid: "900 million." It was the old collector.

The other voice was a little younger, with a bit of playfulness: "950 million." He was always stuck on the bottom line and played cards, with a look of indifference, and a pair of eyes looking at the old collector—a little With a bit of malicious banter.

"1000 million." The poor old man only had so much disposable assets, so it was a little difficult for him to raise the sign. Everyone watched the game between them with a bit of amusement, as if watching a good show. It is unclear who will get it, but anyone with eyes can tell that there should be some gap between that young man and this old man.

Sure enough, as soon as the old collector's words fell, the young man was about to hold up the sign again. Bai Yi snorted coldly in front of him, and said slowly: "As far as I know, the assets you can use are only 900 million at most. Are you sure you want to make yourself heavily in debt for a tripod?" What's more, if this tripod is taken back, it will be worthless to him.

The young man hesitated slightly, and put down the bidding card in his hand. Looking at the expensive high-end T-tailored suit on Bai Yi's body, he couldn't help but frowned slightly, and asked, "Who are you?"

Bai Yi didn't know how to answer. People in the Gu family seemed to be very selfish, such as the Gu Yajuan he met when he just woke up, or Gu Tianyou who took revenge on the class teacher at this auction for a trivial matter.

Yes, he recognized it just now, the guy behind him is his younger brother in this shell, his age is just 15 years old, he is not considered an adult, if it is impossible for such a brat to come to him on weekdays Therefore, I have to say that this magical auction really has no taboos.

The price of the bronze tripod has already been raised to 1000 million, and most of the people present were thinking about watching the finale, so they didn't fight for it. Therefore, the auctioneer smiled and wanted to knock down the auction hammer, saying: Said: "Mr. No. 23 offered 1000 million, is there any price increase?"

Unexpectedly, a dark room on the second floor was slightly lit up, the woman couldn't help but smiled, and said: "VIP Room No. 1, the price will be increased by 500 million."

There was silence underneath, and the old collector looked ashamed and defeated. If it was 50, he could still fight, but with such a price increase, he was completely defeated, and there was no room for him to stand up.

The first lot came to an end like this, and the second lot came up immediately, which was a sapphire from the Heart of the Sea...

In the VIP room No. [-], Lu Zhou raised his head slightly to look at Zhou Ye, with a slight smile on his lips: "The tripod is not worth much, why take a picture of it..."

Saying so, he heard the door rang slightly, Lu Zhou opened his eyes slightly, and said in his mouth: "It should be someone from the auction who came to deliver the order just now." Saying so, he got up and walked forward Go, open the door.

Zhou Ye's bodyguards were all outside staring at that person, but he was calm. He probably saw this kind of scene a lot. When he saw Lu Zhou, he smiled and walked in. He said to Zhou Ye, "Mr. one."

Lu Zhou on the side was ignoring him.Lu Zhou blushed and closed the door behind him - he didn't want people to see his embarrassing appearance now.

But the man in front of him suddenly launched an attack, and suddenly a dagger in his hand was held against Lu Zhou, controlling him, and then said to Zhou Ye: "Hand over the card on your body!" Like a desperate gangster.

Zhou Ye looked at him, his eyes were slightly cold, he stood up slowly, and walked towards this person - even at this time he was still very calm and graceful, like a leisurely cheetah, with only a pair of murderous eyes stern.

"It's just money? You let him go, these are all yours." He said, throwing a few black cards directly at the man's feet, with a calm expression on his face.

The man looked at the card under his feet, and then at Lu Zhou in his hand. He couldn't help struggling, and then he pushed Lu Zhou into Zhou Ye's arms. Lu Zhou couldn't stand under the huge impact. It hit Zhou Ye's body hard, and the two of them fell together on the sofa behind them.

Lu Zhou was very moved: "Master Zhou, you are so kind to me." As he said this, a bloodthirsty smile slowly appeared on the corner of his lips.

A sharp pain came from his left chest. Zhou Ye opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak anymore. A few drops of blood gushed out of his mouth. His previously indifferent face was full of disbelief.

"Why..." He asked like this, but blood flowed down the dagger from his chest, wetting the carpet.

But how could Lu Zhou give him an answer, and he stabbed the dagger hard again: "You don't deserve to know why, people like you should..."

"Death, no, close, eyes!"

The person who came to deliver the bill of lading for the auction suddenly laughed, took Lu Zhou into his arms, clamped his chin and laughed, "Honey, what you said is really good, I've wanted to see Zhou Ye for a long time. How can you die without regret?"

He smiled like this, and the two left the No. [-] VIP room one after the other, but turned around and directly entered the No. [-] VIP room.

"Bai, what are you looking at?"

Andy felt that Bai Yi was a bit strange, the items at the auction could not attract his attention, he looked to the second floor frequently, not knowing what else to look at.

There was a faint smell of blood lingering in Bai Yi's nose. He didn't know if it was an illusion. He wanted to identify it carefully, but felt that this feeling was vague and gradually unable to catch the smell, so he said slowly with some doubts in his heart: "It's nothing, I just don't know who are the people on the second floor."

"Second floor, it's not just about being rich and honorable. You have to be powerful to sit on it. Moreover, it's not just ordinary power..." Andy smiled slightly, and there was a little bit in his eyes. desire and ambition.

powerful?Then Zhou Ye might be on it today?Where does this slight panic come from?Bai Yi frowned slightly, thinking in his heart.

At the same time, the grand finale was finally up, it was a painting of a colorful phoenix, the phoenix has a pair of emerald green eyes, and the fire-colored tail feathers, it looks like it is burning.

The beautiful auctioneer's eyes were shining, and her tongue was shining: "We have used more than 100 experts to find out the origin of the colorful phoenix picture, but we still can't find it. It is mysterious, and many people say it has ancient The mysterious power of the phoenix..." Speaking of this point, she felt a little disdainful in her heart, it is indeed mysterious, this colorful phoenix picture has now been transferred to three buyers, two of them died in the mysterious fire, and the villa of the last one also died. Burned, life and death are unknown, if it is really a mysterious force, then there should be evil spirits, but at this time, she can only say good things.

"Its value can only be realized by yourself if you get it. We have known that there was a beggar who once owned a colorful phoenix picture. Later, he established his own financial empire in country C. I won't say his name , everyone should know who he is, right?"

Who wouldn't know that Country C's financial empire has been successful and failed one day, and although it is now in Zhou Ye's pocket, the establishment of the Burning Kingdom at the beginning also made everyone envious.

Seeing that everyone's faces were reddish, their breathing was heavy, and the atmosphere in the venue had been mobilized, the woman smiled slightly, and then said: "The reserve price of the colorful phoenix painting auction is 5000 million, and the price will increase by no less than 100 million each time. You can bid now."

As soon as she finished speaking, a low-pitched male voice was heard from the second floor, which fell into everyone's ears like a bomb, making the signs in everyone's hands as heavy as if filled with lead, unable to lift them up.

"One hundred million."
