Chapter 85: If You Don't Bid Again, You'll Lose

~7 min read 1,312 words

Qin Aodong had been having a miserable time these past few days.

After causing trouble a few days ago, he was severely beaten by his second uncle and was also grounded.

However, with his extreme love for antiques and curios, how could he miss an auction of this level?

Thus, he racked his brains to sneak out to attend the auction today, never expecting to see Ye Chen here again.

He had always held Ye Chen in disdain. In his view, his second uncle was completely deceived by this brat.

But he didn't dare to provoke Ye Chen head-on. Seeing Ye Chen wanting to bid for this necklace, he immediately followed up with a bid. Although it was useless, it was good to make Ye Chen uncomfortable.

Ye Chen glanced at him, then turned his head coldly and continued to bid.

"Seven hundred thousand!"

Qin Aodong followed closely: "Eight hundred thousand!"

Xiao Changkun couldn't sit still and hurriedly said, "Ye Chen, let's not bid anymore. Forget it, don't compete."

Ye Chen smiled indifferently and said, "Watch how I play with him."

After speaking, he raised his hand directly: "Eight million!"

The scene was stunned.

Others bid eight hundred thousand, and you bid eight million? Are you toxic?

Qin Aodong was also stunned. Damn, you don't play by the rules! I bid eight hundred thousand, you should bid nine hundred thousand, at most one million. What do you mean by bidding eight million?

Are you burning money, or is your brain short-circuited?

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows at Qin Aodong and smiled, "Qin Shao, continue!"

Qin Aodong spat, "Am I crazy? Spend eight million on this piece of junk? Forget it, I'll let you have it!"

Although Qin Aodong couldn't save face, he really couldn't bear to bid on the basis of eight million.

The value of this bead was at most seven hundred thousand. If he really spent more than eight million to buy it, wouldn't his legs be broken when he got home?

Money isn't spent like that!

Ye Chen stared at Qin Aodong and said disdainfully, "Qin Shao, you wilted so quickly? It seems you're not up to it either."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Qin Aodong said with a red face, "Stop trying to provoke me, damn it. I think you can't afford it at all. You're just bidding blindly, trying to bait me? Hmph, I'm going to see how you come up with this eight million!"

Ye Chen curled his lips, "If you can't afford to bid, just say you can't. What's the point of explaining so much here?"

At this time, the auctioneer also dropped the gavel.

"Eight million, sold! Congratulations, Mr. Ye!"

Subsequently, an etiquette lady immediately came to Ye Chen with a wireless card reader and said, "Mr. Ye, please swipe your card to pay."

Everyone was staring at Ye Chen. Qin Aodong sneered, "Ye Chen, I'm going to see how you swipe your card! Can you come up with eight million?"

Others were also curious whether Ye Chen, who bid so insanely, could really come up with so much money.

Ye Chen smiled indifferently, took out the black card from Qin Gang, and swiped it with a 'swish'.

The black card had no password.

Card swipe successful!

The etiquette lady handed the receipt to Ye Chen and said respectfully, "Mr. Ye, the treasure you auctioned will be delivered to you before the end!"

"Okay!" Ye Chen nodded.

Others were shocked one after another!

It seems he really has money!

Spending eight million to buy a seven-hundred-thousand-dollar necklace, this person really has guts!

At this time, Ye Chen looked at Qin Aodong and asked with a smile, "Qin Shao, are you convinced now?"

There was a burst of laughter around, and someone teased, "Qin Shao, has your family fallen on hard times and you can't afford the money?"

"Haha, I think Qin Shao is too weak to lift a knife!"

"Hahahaha!"

Qin Aodong felt his face was burning hot.

Damn, this grandson can actually come up with so much money!

He really lost face this time!

Thus, he gritted his teeth and said, "Ye Chen, I definitely won't lose to you on the next item!"

Ye Chen nodded and said indifferently, "Alright, let's compare the next one and see!"

Qin Aodong didn't know where Ye Chen got such confidence, and even less did he know that Ye Chen was still holding a card given by his second uncle...

Soon, several more collections were auctioned off, followed by a semi-finished Tianhuang jade embryo.

Half of this jade embryo was wrapped in rock to show that it was purely natural, with a starting price of eight hundred thousand.

The naturally formed jade embryo contained a certain amount of Qi. Ye Chen thought that this thing would be perfect for refining evil-warding artifacts for Qin Gang, so he immediately raised his paddle.

"900,000!"

But as soon as his voice fell, the familiar voice sounded again.

"1,000,000!"

Ye Chen turned his head and met Qin Aodong's provocative eyes.

He remained calm and continued to raise his paddle.

"1,100,000!"

"1,200,000!"

After a few rounds, the price of the Tianhuang jade embryo had doubled. Under Qin Aodong's deliberate bidding, it soared to 2 million!

Many people at the scene also saw that Qin Aodong had started to target Ye Chen deliberately again.

Everyone was waiting to see another good show, so they stared at Ye Chen's hand.

Ye Chen slowly raised his paddle and said, "Twenty million!"

Holy crap!

The scene went crazy!

Bidding two million directly to twenty million? Just like before, directly ten times!

Qin Aodong's face was extremely ugly.

This Ye Chen, is he looking for death? Even if you have money, isn't money money? Why be so wasteful?

He was a well-known spendthrift in Jin Ling, but even he couldn't bear to spend ten times the price to buy something...

He fell into hesitation all of a sudden.

Should he follow or not?

If he follows, he'll throw away more than eighteen million for nothing.

If he doesn't follow, Ye Chen will probably mock him to death, and these people will probably laugh at him to death too.

He already lost face once just now. If he were compared by Ye Chen again this time, he really wouldn't have the face to hang out anymore!

Thinking of this, Qin Aodong gritted his teeth and blurted out, "I bid twenty million and one hundred thousand!"

There was an exclamation at the scene!

Qin Aodong added one hundred thousand!

This was accepting the challenge!

Ye Chen smiled slightly at this time and raised his hand again: "I bid thirty million!"

"Damn!!!"

"This is going crazy!!!"

"This guy is too tough!!!"

Bidding two million to twenty million, twenty million and one hundred thousand to thirty million, Ye Chen's style simply scared everyone at the scene.

Qin Aodong also collapsed!

What is this Ye Chen doing? Is he really that rich? Thirty million! He could buy fifteen pieces of such jade! No matter who bids this price, they are a huge sucker!

Ye Chen asked Qin Aodong again: "Qin Shao, come on, continue!"

Qin Aodong panicked.

Spending thirty million on a piece of jade, if his family finds out, he's dead!

His sister Qin Aoxue would probably beat him into a lifelong disability.

However, with so many people watching...

What to do?

Qin Aodong's face turned red and white.

The auctioneer called out: "Thirty million once!"

"Thirty million twice!"

The lively audience at the scene started shouting:

"Qin Shao, bid!"

"Qin Shao, you have to be tough!"

"Qin Shao, don't let us look down on you!"

"Qin Shao, are you really scared? You were acting so arrogant just now, and now you're scared?"

Ye Chen said with a smile, "Qin Shao, if you don't bid again, you'll lose!" ===== CHAPTER 86 =====
