C367 More Money than Anyone else



C367 More Money than Anyone else

"What's going on?"    

    

This time, it was Young Master Ji's turn to have a drastic change in expression.    

    

Not to mention Young Master Ji, even Hee Sitong couldn't figure out what was going on. How did the previous good auction become a free gift?    

    

"Did, did you find the wrong person?" Hee Sitong laughed awkwardly.    

    

The assistant immediately placed the red plate in front of Hee Sitong and bowed: "That's right, Master of Arts has designated this location to be delivered to you, I hope Mister will accept it."    

    

With that, the assistant left.    

    

After a moment of shock, the audience finally accepted this fact.    

    

Hee Sitong, who was initially suppressed by Young Master Ji, had, in the blink of an eye, turned into a Master of Arts delivering six million yuan worth of jade hairpins straight to Hee Sitong's pocket without even spending a single cent.    

    

Many of the merchants who had underestimated Hee Sitong had no choice but to wait. To be able to make Master of Arts change his mind, he must have a powerful background.    

    

"Tch, and only because of the Master Huang's prestige, I reckon that when the Master of Arts saw the Master Huang, he mistook you all for powerful people."    

    

Young Master Ji's words made sense, but he was barely able to get back at them.    

    

However, Young Master Ji was not convinced that the jade hairpin would fall into Hee Sitong's hands.    

    

"This is only the first item. We'll see."    

    

This small disturbance quickly passed, and Auctioneer began the next stage of the auction.    

    

However, most of the following items being auctioned were housekeeping and talismans that could protect one's safety. The wealthy merchants would naturally fight over them non-stop, but for Hee Sitong, who had the top-grade magic tool, the Night Pearl, he naturally did not need to fight for this kind of thing.    

    

Seeing that Hee Sitong did not fight, Young Master Ji immediately lost his interest.    

    

"Young Master Ji, are you treating him as a joke?" The girl whispered with a laugh.    

    

"Of course, the person sitting beside him is Deng Yuqi, and he looks like he's a couple. To dare to make a ruckus like this, I want him to sweep his face clean and be swept out of the room by Deng Family."    

    

Master Huang and Ye Kai were still seated steadily, but when a flat stage was pushed up to the stage, Ye Kai finally moved.    

    

"This is the thirteenth auction item for this auction. It is said to have been passed down since the Grand Shang, and is known as the Divine Painting of the present day. Unfortunately, it was once again snatched away by pirates during one of the transports, and it was only after going through countless accidents that it was finally brought back to the China."    

    

The Auctioneer introduced, and then pulled open the curtain, revealing a piece of white paper.    

    

Many of the wealthy merchants were not surprised at the fact that a single piece of paper could be auctioned. This was because there were already several pieces of the painting that had already been sold.    

    

"However, after going through a type of repair by the Master of Arts, the remaining pages have all stuck together. This is the last godly painting, and also the largest one in area.    

    

"50 million!"    

    

When this price was announced, everyone present was shocked.    

    

"What kind of joke is this? Those broken paintings from before were only worth a few million, and this one started with a starting price of fifty million?"    

    

"Even if it's a Divine Painting of the Modern Realm, it shouldn't be worth such a price, right?"    

    

Although everyone was saying this, there were quite a few people who were grasping the opportunity. This was only the starting price. If they raised the price later, breaking through several hundred million might not even be a problem.    

    

"Everyone, you should think about it properly. When you collect all these pages and find a Master of Arts to repair them, if you can restore the original Divine Painting to its original value, then you will have to start at least one billion!"    

    

Even the wealthy merchants were unable to reject this price.    

    

Although many of them could be placed in the tens of billions, but this one billion was just a guarantee. If the complete painting was placed in the auction, the price would increase by at least four or five times.    

    

More importantly, the value of a divine painting could not be measured with just a few billion.    

    

"The starting bid of 50 million will be no less than 1 million each time. The auction officially begins!"    

    

Following Auctioneer's words, more than a dozen merchants raised their trump cards at the same time.    

    

"53 million!"    

    

"Fifty-seven million!"    

    

"65 million!"    

    

"..."    

    

The shouts continued for more than half a minute before they gradually subsided.    

    

The real buyers were still trying their best to hold their cool. They only had a few billion on them to bid, so they could only raise the price. It was impossible for them to bid on this remnant page.    

    

"100 million!"    

    

Finally, after a full minute of bidding, a wealthy businessman's bid immediately rang out to the audience.    

    

When the price reached a hundred million, quite a few people began to hesitate.    

    

After all, there were only a handful of people who were able to control more than 100 million liquid funds.    

    

"One hundred million."    

    

Ye Kai raised his plate indifferently.    

    

With this, Hee Sitong and the others were completely shocked.    

    

"What are you doing?"    

    

"Do you think I have nothing better to do at the auction?" Ye Kai turned his head towards Hee Sitong and said in a daze.    

    

"Is that why you bought this scrap of paper? Is this scrap of paper important? "    

    

"Yes, very important." Ye Kai nodded.    

    

Han Xue and the rest were all shocked, there were countless treasures and tools that Ye Kai did not react to, but when this piece of paper came out, he had already raised his hand.    

    

And this was a price of over 100 million!    

    

Amongst them, only Han Xue, Deng Yuqi and Hee Sitong were able to support such a price.    

    

"Could it be that you're an invisible rich person?" Han Xue was shocked.    

    

However, thinking about it, since Ye Kai had settled Sun Family and its background, it must be a wealthy merchant, too.    

    

"Do you have enough money?" As Hee Sitong looked at the jumping price, it quickly jumped to one hundred and twenty million.    

    

"Not bad." Ye Kai said as he played with the plate.    

    

"Why don't we gather some money for you and take it?" Hee Sitong immediately said with loyalty.    

    

Previously, Ye Kai had not hesitated to make an enemy out of the Master Huang and helped him win the wedding bet.    

    

"Why are you still trying to get close? Didn't you see that Young Master Ji is waiting for us to bid?"    

    

Just as Hee Sitong was about to send a message to find his father to transfer funds, he heard Deng Yuqi's cold voice cut him off.    

    

"We are just juniors and we don't have much money to transfer, but that Young Master Ji is different. He is a Deputy Director of the Ji Clan and has already taken over half of Chairman Ji's business. The amount of money he can transfer is not something we can compare with."    

    

Deng Yuqi swept her eyes across Ye Kai, and shook her head: "It's better to give up as soon as possible, with Young Master Ji here, don't even think of buying anything at the auction."    

    

"Miss Deng is truly a sensible person. Isn't it a pity to be compatible with such a poor person?" Young Master Ji joked.    

    

"150 million!"    

    

Young Master Ji's hand easily raised the price by twenty million.    

    

This price was several times that of the jade hairpin from before.    

    

Hee Sitong's face stiffened. No matter how much he said the twenty million, his father would never agree to it.    

    

"Apologies, I really can't help you with that …"    

    

Hee Sitong had not finished speaking when he heard Ye Kai casually raise his hand up.    

    

"Two hundred million."    

    

When the price was stated, Hee Sitong and the rest were all dumbstruck.    

    

"What the f * ck?"    

    

"Ye Kai, are you f * cking crazy?"    

    

"Did you know that if you randomly bid, you will be sent to jail!"    

    

If he called out a price for the sake of arguing with Young Master Ji, he would definitely be taken away by Young Master Ji and put in jail. If that happened, Tian Tian wouldn't agree.    

    

"What a fool." Young Master Ji shook his head and sneered.    

    

This price jump was indeed a bit exaggerated, directly raising the price by 50 million. Even some wealthy merchants were so shocked that they did not dare to raise their prices.    

    

At this point, even the Auctioneer had no choice but to stop the auction to confirm Ye Kai's assets.    

    

If not enough, he would be judged to be disrupting the auction house's order, and capturing him and putting him in jail was inevitable.    

    

"I'm sorry, but this is your first time coming to our auction, so we have to check your assets first."    

    

Ye Kai shrugged his shoulders, and then passed a bank card to the Staff in the auction.    

    

After some searching, Staff walked over with an extremely unsightly expression.    

    

"I'm sorry, but this card of yours is only 10 million, it's far from 200 million."    

    

When Staff said this, the entire audience burst into laughter.    

    

"Hahaha, a trash worth ten million, yet he dares to call me two hundred million?"    

    

"The little brat these days is truly lacking in discipline. He doesn't even know the rules of the auction house, yet he dares to make a ruckus here?"    

    

When Young Master Ji heard this, he could not help but burst out laughing.    

    

"Don't worry, I've already called the police. The people from the Metropolitan Police Department will be back soon."    

    

"Furthermore, if a person is causing trouble, his companions are also suspected of being accomplices in order to disrupt the order. We will have to take him away as well."    

    

Young Master Ji spread his hands and sneered, "But I believe in Miss Deng's character. Other than Miss Deng, let's capture everyone else."    

    

"Damn, when did it become your turn to speak?" Hee Sitong pointed at Young Master Ji and cursed.    

    

However, the situation now was truly difficult. With a bid of 200 million, it would take a decade or eight to disrupt the order of the auction.    

    

"Ye Kai, hurry up and clarify yourself. Just tell them that you made a mistake and the auction will not cause any trouble for you." Deng Yuqi could not bear to watch any longer, so she tried to dissuade her.    

    

"Only ten million?" Ye Kai turned a deaf ear and actually did not have any expression on his face. He just casually sent out two messages.    

    

"Then, let's take a look at it now?"    

    

"Hehe, what are you still looking at? There's a total of 200 million. Is it something that a poor ghost from the mainland like you can transfer to?"    

    

Young Master Ji snorted as he laughed, when he heard Staff running over once again.    

    

But this time, Staff respectfully returned the bank card back to Ye Kai.    

    

"Apologies sir, our investigation was wrong, please continue the auction."    

    

"What?"    

    

Everyone in the audience almost couldn't help but cry out.    

    

In just two short breaths, Ye Kai transferred over two hundred million gold?    

    

Many of the wealthy merchants present probably wouldn't be able to do something like this.    

    

Even Deng Yuqi looked at the calm Ye Kai in shock.    

    

Two hundred million was already equivalent to their total Deng Family's income for a very long time, and even she, Deng Yuqi, was unable to obtain it in a short amount of time, but if Ye Kai was able to transfer it over so easily, wouldn't that mean that Ye Kai was still above their Deng Family?    

    

"300 million!"    

    

Young Master Ji was unwilling to fall behind. He raised his board and called for a higher price. This time, he raised the price by 100 million online.    

    

At this moment, the entire hall was silent.    

    

Looking at Young Master Ji, even if Ye Kai called for the price, he would still continue to follow up.    

    

Unknowingly, the auction of this godly painting had turned into a showdown between two young masters.    

    

"Come on, continue shouting. Three hundred and forty million?" Let me tell you, I am determined to get this drawing paper! I would like to see how much money you, a pauper of the continent, can transfer! "    

    

Young Master Ji clamored towards Ye Kai.    

    

"Oh? "Is that so?"    

    

Ye Kai held his chin, slowly raised the sign, and said lazily.    

    

"One billion."
