Chapter 359(1/2)
It was a small piece of wood, with a sharp cut visible from the side.
It can be seen that it is the dark wood that has just been cut, and only a part of it was taken out for auction.
Li Xian narrowed his eyes, and his face became extremely gloomy at this moment.
I never expected that the Yinchen Wood would really be in the hands of the Meritorious Association. They killed so many innocent people and then took away the Yin Chenmu.
Not only that, he even personally issued an invitation to invite him to attend tonight's auction.
This is a naked provocation.
He was curious about how the Merit Club could be so bold and capable.
The other party must have investigated him, and knew that his status and level were not low, and yet he dared to do such a thing, that is, he did not take him seriously.
From the initial anger, he slowly calmed down.
After what happened in Nanjiang, he knew that he would be in danger anytime and anywhere, so he had to be cautious in everything.
More importantly, we need to see clearly what the merit-based association wants to do and what their purpose is.
Others present were shocked when they saw the eighty-centimeter piece of wood and learned that it was dark wood.
I never expected that someone would get the Dark Wood now, and it was in a merit-based competition.
But if you think about it carefully, the merit-based association is originally an organization that mainly collects these materials.
As long as I hear about these things, I will definitely set out immediately. It is reasonable to get these things.
Liang Zejun also showed a surprised expression. He never expected that the main thing tonight would be gloomy wood.
If you take this kind of thing back, it will still be a treasure even if you keep it at home.
Although it is only half a piece, just a small piece, its value is immeasurable.
The emcee noticed the excitement of the people present and was mentally prepared for it, so his expression didn't change much at all, and he still had the same smile as before.
"This piece of gloomy wood is something we can only get through a merit-based auction. If you are interested, you can auction it tonight."
"The starting price is 100 million."
As soon as the emcee finished speaking, someone shouted: "I'll give you 200 million!"
"I'll pay 300 million!"
Gloomy wood is no longer a simple piece of wood, but a treasure and a symbol.
Many people want to get it, after all, it is very valuable for collection.
As the price increased, Li Xian's face became increasingly ugly.
But he endured it and never spoke out.
In the end, this piece of gloomy wood was finally bought for 1.5 billion.
I have to say that the people who came here tonight are indeed a group of relatively wealthy people, and they easily spent such a large amount of money.
Tonight's auction was over. When Liang Zejun stood up and was about to leave, he saw Li Xian sitting in his original position, motionless.
"Hey, there's no auction anymore, it's time to go." Liang Zejun looked at him in surprise.
"You go first." He said calmly.
Liang Zejun was stunned for a moment, said nothing, turned and left.
He sat there alone, waiting for the group of people to gradually leave.
Then, Yang Dingqi came to him and said angrily: "I didn't see that you are quite rich."
Li Xian has other things to do now and doesn't pay attention to Yang Dingqi at all.
He did not answer Yang Dingqi's words, but this action aroused Yang Dingqi's dissatisfaction.
"I said Li Xian, I'm talking to you. You're deaf. Didn't you hear me?"
Li Xian raised his head and glanced at the other party lightly.
Just at this glance, Yang Dingqi felt her breathing tighten and her body
He took a step back uncontrollably.
This... what kind of look is this?
Why is it so scary?
"roll!"
Yang Dingqi didn't dare to refute a simple word, and left as if running away.
Li Xian did not leave, and at the end, he was the only one left.
It was also at this time that the master of ceremonies who had presided over the ceremony came to him: "Mr. Li, our president has invited you."
It's finally here.
He stood up and glanced at the cardboard box in the emcee's hand.
The master of ceremonies immediately handed the thing to him: "This is a gift from our president to you, so you don't need any money."
"A gift for me." He glanced at it.
"Yes." The hostess smiled and said, "It's the picture album Mr. Li took just now."
"I see." Li Xian smiled, "Your president is really good at calculating."
First, take out the album and put it up for public auction.
Then, he gave the picture album to him.
Not only did he offend someone, but he also took advantage of it. He is indeed a man with means.
"Mr. Li misunderstood. We didn't know you wanted this album at first. If Mr. Li wanted it, we would definitely give it to you." The hostess smiled as always.
Li Xian looked at the woman in front of him, reached out and took the album, and looked at her with a half-smile, "I want you, will you follow me?"
The hostess was slightly stunned, but only for a moment, she returned to her previous appearance: "Mr. Li is joking, how can I compare to Mr. Li's wife."
Li Xian took a look at the album and said calmly: "That's right, I'm quite self-aware."
The hostess narrowed her eyes and didn't understand what he meant. She just raised her hand and said, "Please come this way."
Li Xian did not refuse, and followed the hostess towards the side road, and soon came to a corridor at the back.
After passing through the corridor, we came to a spacious room, where an elderly man wearing a suit sat.
The man saw him and greeted him with a smile: "You... you are Dr. Li Xianli, right?"
Li Xian looked at the other person. He was about sixty years old. He seemed to be in good spirits and had a bright smile on his face.
But those eyes gave people a shrewd calculation, which made them very uncomfortable.
A businessman will only be a businessman, and if he packages it with art, he will still be a businessman.
Li Xian said calmly: "You know me well, why bother?"
"Haha..." Fan Deyun smiled, "It seems that Dr. Li is a little angry."
"Shouldn't I be angry?" He said calmly.
"It shouldn't be." Fan Deyun replied with absolute certainty.
"Oh?" Li Xian raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "You robbed my father of the treasure they brought and even planned to kill them. Shouldn't I be angry?"
Fan Deyun said with a smile: "Misunderstanding, this is all a misunderstanding. Before we took action, we really didn't know that it was Dr. Li's father."
"Do you think I will believe it?" Li Xian sneered, not believing their nonsense.
Each of these people is smarter than anyone else. How could they not know that he is his father?
Before taking action, wouldn't you investigate the situation first?
Fan Deyun sighed: "At the beginning, we just thought they were the foreman and workers at a construction site. How could we have imagined that your father would be among them. If we knew, we promised not to do anything."
"When I found out later, didn't I also snatch the Yinchen Wood and even bring it here for auction?" he asked coldly.
"I don't have the final say in the auction alone, and I didn't do it by taking your things."
When Fan Deyun said this, he shook his head: "Me too
I only found out about this today, so I immediately invited Dr. Li here, mainly because I wanted to apologize to you in person."
Li Xian asked calmly: "You said it wasn't you, then who was it?"
"This..." Fan Deyun hesitated immediately.
"Don't you want to apologize?" Li Xian sneered: "You have to show your sincerity, right? First, the person behind it told me, and then returned the dark wood to me."
Fan Deyun did not agree directly, but looked at him and said with a smile: "Doctor Li, I know that you are quite capable now. However, it is not enough to protect Yin Chenmu."
"oh?"
"Although these are millennium antiques, they require careful maintenance and a lot of money and energy in the later stages."
When Fan Deyun said this, he showed a confident smile: "The most important thing is that it requires professionals to maintain it. You are just a chamber of commerce and don't have talents in this field, right?"
