Chapter 164

The treasures of this auction, the most popular ones are all from Wuxingguo, and therefore they are also called the Wuxingguo treasure auction special session.

……

This auction took place in a very large city in Cherry Blossom Country.

Shifudi's auction venue is a very tall building; the auction hall can indeed accommodate over three thousand people, so the scale of this auction can be imagined.

On the day of the auction, the auction was scheduled to start at six in the afternoon, but by past three o'clock, many people had already arrived.

Outside the Shifudi auction venue, countless luxury cars were parked.

At a glance, dazzling array.

Tycoons of various skin tones gathered together and, in sync with their own arrival, walked through the red carpet towards the auction hall.

Because this auction was extremely hot, Shifudi worried the venue wouldn't be enough, so they set a rule: only those who could provide proof of two hundred million yuan in funds could enter, since the treasures of this auction were being bid at a price of two hundred million.

Even so, the auction venue was still overcrowded.

Half of the people came just to see in person the true appearance of these Wuxingguo treasures.

Some people came with the hope of being able to bring the treasures home.

For example, the two Ma Zongs.

And the Four Major Groups of Henglintang.

They all came for those few treasures, and upon seeing the situation on site, their expressions inevitably grew heavy.

They all knew the auction's popularity was high, but they didn't expect it to reach such a degree.

Also, many tycoons from other countries eyed those few treasures tigerishly, coming with the determination to obtain them at all costs.

At the entrance, when these people provided proof of funds, they were all billionaires worth hundreds of billions or even trillions; the competition was incredibly fierce.

Originally, they all thought they could definitely bring the nation's treasures back home, but after seeing the scene, each of them broke into a sweat in their hearts.

Just then, a figure appeared in their line of sight: it was Xiao Ming.

Then, those domestic tycoons, turning from sorrow to joy, gathered around to greet Xiao Ming: 'Mr. Xiao.'

"I didn't expect you to also come to this auction; with you, we all instantly felt relieved." Upon seeing Xiao Ming's appearance, they instantly felt as if they had seen the dawn of hope.

"Mm!" Xiao Ming nodded, responding one by one to the enthusiasm of these domestic compatriots, and Xiao Ming's several children also stepped forward to greet them.

Earlier, in Yun Cheng, when Xiao Ming was holding a wedding for his nephew, the two Ma Zongs also came to the scene; before that, they had some cooperation, so they were quite familiar with each other. When they met this time, they were not so formal when facing Xiao Ming.

The group walked and talked.

At this moment, Ma Zong of Ali felt his pressure suddenly halve; earlier, when he had just started his business, he went to discuss investment with Xiao Ming, and after hearing his plan and ideals, Xiao Ming gave him several hundred million in investment without any hesitation.

Even now, Xiao Ming still holds thirty percent of his company's shares; Xiao Ming's attitude is of decisive significance to his company, so he has always been very respectful toward Xiao Ming.

For this auction of Wuxingguo's treasures, many foreign tycoons wanted to pocket them; Ma Zong came this time carrying the hopes of the countrymen, but seeing the scene, he knew his chances of winning were slim.

When he was feeling depressed, Xiao Ming appeared.

Since Xiao Ming came, he certainly wasn't just here to watch the excitement; with him, hope instantly increased considerably.

Without exaggeration, Xiao Ming is the richest man he has ever seen in his life; in terms of wealth, there are hardly any in the entire auction hall who can match him.

After Xiao Ming glanced at the scene, he casually said: 'This auction has attracted many senior tycoons.'

Many tycoons famous on the world wealth list have come.

Ma Zong of Ali quickly replied: 'Exactly, and it's obvious those tycoons all came with the determination to obtain them at all costs; our competitors this time are all strong contenders, our pressure is not small, but no matter what, our nation's treasures must not fall into the hands of foreigners.'

"To obtain them at all costs? You need a wallet full enough; nowadays Wuxingguo is no longer what it used to be, our nation's treasures are not yet something others can covet, and wanting to use this opportunity to slap Wuxingguo's face is nothing but a daydream." Xiao Ming's tone was light, yet carried an unquestionable firmness.

These words undoubtedly gave others a reassuring pill; with Xiao Ming present, in their view, everything was no problem.

Speaking, they sat down one by one in a spot near the middle.

When Xiao Ming and company entered the venue, they instantly attracted the attention of many people present.

One reason is that, as a Wuxingguo person, this auction originally featured ancient Wuxingguo treasures, and he came because Xiao Ming was surrounded by a large group of Wuxingguo people, who naturally regarded him as the center.

Xiao Ming had previously never said he would attend this auction.

However, before, Xiao Ming had become a hot topic online, especially because he is the largest shareholder of AT Aviation Technology Company, which attracted much attention.

Suddenly, a powerful tycoon emerged from Wuxingguo, making many people feel a sense of crisis, so they all mobilized their power to investigate Xiao Ming; at this moment, as soon as Xiao Ming appeared, many top tycoons recognized him.

Xiao Ming's calm and composure in such a setting showed extraordinary confidence.

His several children, having followed Xiao Ming for so long, were also influenced by his attitude, now also very composed; moreover, in their hearts, Xiao Ming is an omnipotent existence.

Since he came and could say those words, it shows he has sufficient confidence.

By the time it was almost five o'clock, basically everyone had already arrived.

In the vast auction hall, there was not an empty seat; everyone was packed tightly.

On site, the auctioneer began preparations; the bright lights illuminated the hall, making it splendid and magnificent.

There were servers who prepared various food and drink for the tycoons attending the auction.

Besides not being able to move freely, there was a feeling of attending a high-end gathering.

Shifudi required proof of two hundred million yuan in funds, but in fact, aside from those who came just to observe and gain experience, those who came for the treasures all brought at least over one billion yuan in funds.

Soon, it was approaching six o'clock; at this time, Shifudi's preparations were also complete, and those several treasures, as the auction's biggest highlight, naturally would not be placed first.
