Chapter 245
Just under the questioning of netizens and some of the audience at the scene.
The master of ceremonies began to display the first auction item of the day.
As expected, the first item was the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish!
The copper fish was placed in a glass container, and the same clerk who had previously handed over the Heaven Lamp held a long bamboo pole to hook the glass cover onto it.
Then it was steadily handed to each guest for close-up viewing.
Auctions are like this; they emphasize a "palm eye" (expert appraisal).
You can only watch from a close distance; whether you can buy a genuine item depends entirely on your eyes!
And the clerk's hand was very steady; for guests further away, the bamboo pole was extended by several sections, but the clerk's hand did not shake at all.
At this time, the master of ceremonies said: "Bosses, the goods are moving now, you all better watch carefully; if you don't bid, there won't be a next time!"
The Snake-Eyed Copper Fish was thus seen by everyone in the venue.
Many people were disappointed after seeing it up close.
Apart from the fine workmanship, this copper fish really looked like it had no value!
Although the scales on the fish were distinct, it didn't warrant a starting price of 10 million!
Many people felt that the Crescent Hotel's pricing was falsely high after seeing it and were ready to withdraw from the auction.
Yin Nanfeng saw this situation from above and smiled at Zhang Lin: "Look, this is a businessman."
"No matter how rich you are, you have to weigh things when doing business."
"Even I think this Snake-Eyed Copper Fish is not worth 10 million; if the seller insists on setting it this way, there's nothing we can do."
"If you reveal the secret now, I guess this bunch of people will leave after watching the excitement."
Zhang Lin said: "Then now they can only sit until the end; this secret will only be told to the person who wins the bid."
Just at this moment, the master of ceremonies announced: "Everyone watch carefully, I won't introduce this Snake-Eyed Copper Fish too much."
"This copper fish is something that has been on the news, originating from the Mirror Palace in Wofoling, Guangxi."
"Mr. Zhang Lin, who tells stories at Sanyuan Garden, said that there is a big secret on the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish."
"However, Mr. Zhang can only tell this secret to the person who wins the copper fish!"
"Now the bidding begins, the starting price is 10 million, and each increase is not less than 100,000!"
Hearing this, the whole venue was in an uproar.
Many people didn't start shaking their bells but started shouting.
"What do you mean? You Crescent Hotel?"
"Yes, Mr. Zhang said before that he would tell the secret before the auction, why did it change now?"
"Yes, if he only tells the person who wins the copper fish, what are we here for today?"
"Damn, isn't this making us run for nothing?!"
"Let Mr. Zhang come out and explain to us what's going on?"
The noise in the hall was particularly loud, but the master of ceremonies was also a person who had seen the world.
She immediately said: "Everyone, this prerequisite was set by my Crescent Hotel and has nothing to do with Mr. Zhang."
"Not long from now, Mr. Zhang will be telling stories at the Crescent Hotel and is an employee of my Crescent Hotel."
"If you are dissatisfied, you can ask our boss directly, don't look for Mr. Zhang."
"Also, although Mr. Zhang will tell the secret to the buyer whoever wins the copper fish, the Crescent Hotel does not restrict the buyer's decision."
"Maybe which boss is generous and, after winning the copper fish, lets Mr. Zhang tell the secret in public, wouldn't you all benefit?"
Hearing this, the guests in the venue hadn't had time to react.
The Chen family son-in-law Ye Fan suddenly said: "Everyone, my Heaven Lamp was lit for the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish!"
"As long as I win the copper fish, then the secret inside this copper fish, I will let that..."
"What was that person's name again? Sigh, it doesn't matter!"
"Anyway, I will let that stinky storyteller tell the secret in public!"
"Everyone just sit at ease and wait for me to win the copper fish!"
After Ye Fan said this, everyone looked at him in shock.
Then they turned their eyes to Yang Lu!
Because this time it was Yang Lu fighting a lamp battle with Ye Fan, and Ye Fan agreed to announce the secret after winning the copper fish, what about Yang Lu?
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, it seemed as if they were forcing her to make the same promise as Ye Fan.
But Yang Lu just smiled and looked at everyone.
Then she said slowly: "Mr. Ye is generous."
"However... let's see if you can win the bid first."
This was mocking Ye Fan for being arrogant; the price hadn't even started to be called, and he thought this thing was his?
Yang Lu's sarcasm also instantly angered Ye Fan.
He glared at Yang Lu and said viciously: "Then Leader Yang just wait to have your lamp blown out!"
