Hello Mr. King - Chapter 674

Chapter 674: Victory Through Acting

She couldn’t possibly not give her identity card to the security personnel. She had to take it off when she went through the security check. No matter how much she tried to disguise herself, it was useless now.

This kind of sweet distress would become more and more serious as her fanclub grew.

“Give me a reward and I’ll take you to Taobao.”Song Mian pointed at her face with her slender index finger.

Yun Xiangxiang rolled her eyes and stood up angrily. “You talk as if I don’t have any connections. I’ll go find Brother Wei…”

Seeing that Yun Xiangxiang was about to leave, song Mian wrapped his arms around her waist and poked his head out from behind her waist. “I’ll take you to a private auction.”

The so-called private auction was to complain about the high commission of a real auction, or that one’s own things could not withstand the scrutiny, and to organize it in private. What these people sold, whether it was real or fake, depended on one’s luck.

Song Mian had only heard of such a private auction and had never participated in it before, so he asked Song Yao to inquire about it.

Coincidentally, there was one on the night of the fourth. Song Yao also got two admission tickets. The rules of the auction were quite proper. Moreover, the auction started at 2:30 am and ended at 4:30 am.

The address was in the alley of Beijing. Song Yao checked it out while he was at it. This house was also rented. However, the organizer of the preparation this time, which was the seller, had a good reputation. They would not touch things that did not respect the dead, so it was a mixture of truth and falsehood.

It was still very hot at the beginning of September, but Yun Xiangxiang and Song Mian still wore a windbreaker in the early morning. They were a couple, wearing large sunglasses and a hat that covered half of their faces. When they arrived, no one was surprised.

Many people were like that. Some people even put on large masks. Yun Xiangxiang had her hair curled up and put on her fiery red lips. She looked several times more mature.

There were quite a number of people in the spacious hall. Yun Xiangxiang wondered if there were police officers lurking in the hall. Wouldn’t she be exposed then?

The seller had quite a lot of things, from coins, calligraphy and paintings to porcelain.

Yun Xiangxiang saw that every piece was being bid for. The transaction value ranged from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands. After looking around for a long time, Yun Xiangxiang could not find anything suitable for a birthday gift. She knew nothing about antiques and could only rely on song Mian.

“This is not bad. It’s suitable as a birthday gift,”song Mian suddenly said to Yun Xiangxiang.

Yun Xiangxiang was lost in her thoughts. Feeling a little bored, she turned her gaze to the center. The main house displayed a box. Inside the box was a jade token the size of a palm. In the middle of the jade token was a hollowed-out word ‘longevity’. Under the light, the jade token had a good color, it looked very moist.

The main house did not allow it to be auctioned. Those who wanted to bid could take a closer look in order to avoid damage. When the time came, they would not be able to tear it apart.

They were talking about the Ming dynasty and Tian Hollow Jade Plate. The bid was 800,000 yuan.

If it was really the Tian Hollow jade plate, 800,000 yuan would be a low price for such a large piece.

Some people who were interested went forward to take a look, but Song Mian did not move from the beginning to the end. Yun Xiangxiang did not need to move at all. She did not understand at all.

However, many people did not seem to think highly of it after looking at it. The owner of the house asked once, but no one responded immediately like the previous items.

The previous items were not that expensive. The highest price was only 1.2 million now.

“Eight hundred thousand.”Yun Xiangxiang looked around and called out the price. She was blindly following song Mian.

With Yun Xiangxiang in the lead, someone followed and called out, “Eighty-five.”

Each bid had to be raised by at least fifty thousand. Yun Xiangxiang looked at this person. Why did it feel like he would compete with anyone who bid? was this the legendary child who raised the price?

She frowned. She did not want to bid anymore. Even if this was true, even if this item was actually worth millions, she did not like being ripped off like this.

The main family asked twice, but Yun Xiangxiang did not say anything. No one else did either.

Song Mian turned to look at Yun Xiangxiang. After the main family had said the deal three times, he said, “Ninety.”

“Hey, I don’t think it’s anything good. Look, no one else wants it.”Yun Xiangxiang immediately pulled song Mian back. It seemed to be a low voice, but everyone could hear it.

“It’s okay. It’s not easy to come here. We Can’t go back empty-handed,”song Mian replied in a low voice. Then, he whispered to Yun Xiangxiang, “This is an authentic jade. It’s worth less than 1.5 million yuan.”

The reason why these people hesitated was that they were not allowed to get their hands on this piece of jade. They were not allowed to get their hands on Jade. It was easy to make a wrong judgment just by looking at it. 1,000,000 yuan was not a small amount. Moreover, even if this piece of jade was authentic.., 1,000,000 yuan was about the limit.

The profit was not particularly big and there was also a risk. Very few of these people came to participate in their own collections.

However, there were still some who hesitated and called out the price, “Ninety-five.”

“Do you still want it?”Song Mian turned to ask Yun Xiangxiang.

“I think the word ‘longevity’is more appropriate.”Yun Xiangxiang looked hesitant. She waited for the host to ask three more times before she slowly said, “One hundred.”

Her attitude was very obvious. This was her limit. Whoever wanted it could take it. Not only the host could see it, but the others could also see it.

In other words, if they increased the bid by 50,000, it was very likely that no one would take it anymore. Should they bet 1,050,000 on it? For a moment, everyone was hesitant. In the end, they felt that even if the jade was real, it was only worth about 1,000,000, so, no one increased the bid.

Yun Xiangxiang eventually relied on her acting skills to buy the jade token for 1,000,000. After that, she was purely a spectator and did not participate in it anymore. Everyone understood that the people who were not commonly seen in these two circles were only here to buy a birthday gift for their elders.

“This person’s items are still more than 30% authentic,”after leaving, Song Mian said to Yun Xiangxiang.

“You can also become a collector.”She did not go up the entire time, so she could actually see it.

“When we get married, I’ll let you see what a real collector is.”Song Mian started to deviate from the topic again.

Yun Xiangxiang moaned weakly. This man could really bring up any topic about marriage!

“I’m hungry…”Yun Xiangxiang went to bed at eight o’clock in the evening and got up at one o’clock in the morning to attend this private event.

Song Mian looked at the time. It was almost five o’clock in the morning, and the sky was already bright. He took Yun Xiangxiang to a small restaurant. It was very small, less than ten square meters, but the door of the restaurant was already open.

The boss was preparing when he saw two customers coming. He could only say enthusiastically, “We have to wait for half an hour.”

“We’ll wait.”Song Mian nodded. Yun Xiangxiang stood behind him and was basically blocked by him.

The boss immediately set up a stall outside. Yun Xiangxiang and Song Mian sat down. Their faces couldn’t be seen clearly because they were wearing hats. The boss was busy again.

Just like that, Yun Xiangxiang had a rare and delicious breakfast outside. There were her favorite candied pancakes, her double sugar, and song Mian’s single sugar. Together with tofu pudding and mutton chowder, the aftertaste was absolutely endless.
