Rebirth 1983: Starting From Taking Back the Family Property Chapter 535

Chapter 535 Charity Gala (2)

"Six hundred thousand."

Lu Jiaxin knew it was Li Huini from the shouting voice. Her classmate is also a tiger. Everyone is adding 50,000 to 50,000 yuan, but she just adds 100,000 yuan. How can anyone play with it?

Zong Shimeng raised the sign again and shouted: "Eight hundred thousand."

Looking at the two of them raising the price like this, no one else dared to argue anymore. The two people went back and forth, and in the end Li Huini won and won Yu Ruyi for 1.6 million.

The next thing is porcelain, two calligraphy and paintings, and then it is Nie Zhan's turn for a limited edition watch. Lu Jiaxin originally thought that his watch would be more popular than his jade Ruyi, but it only sold for HK$580,000. Okay, antiques with beautiful meanings are still popular in Hong Kong City, while limited edition luxury watches have limited popularity.

What Lu Jiaxin didn't expect was that the finale of the auction would be a pale golden South Sea pearl necklace. This item was not included in the auction album.

The auctioneer first explained to everyone that this lot was donated by a mysterious lady. Because it was delivered this morning, it was not announced in time.

Nie Zhan saw Lu Jiaxin staring at the pearl without blinking: "Do you like it?"

Lu Jiaxin nodded and said, "I like it, it's very beautiful. I must win it."

Nie Zhan thought the pearls in this necklace were a bit too small. His friend's sister had a silver South Sea pearl necklace. Well, I'll contact my friend tomorrow and see if his sister is willing to give up.

The starting price of this pale golden pearl necklace is two million, and according to the rules, each increase in price cannot be less than 100,000. However, Lu Jiaxin liked this necklace and followed Li Huini's example and directly increased the price by 200,000 yuan. Sure enough, many people gave up on her bid. This was the richest woman in Hong Kong. There was no need to compete with her for financial resources, but there were some who could compete with her.

“3.6 million.”

The items at the auction go to the highest bidder, but there's nothing much to say about it. Lu Jiaxin increased the price to 4 million, but the other party immediately bid 4.1 million.

Lu Jiaxin couldn't help but look at the person calling out the price. She was a young woman in her twenties. She didn't know whether the other party really liked the necklace or deliberately raised the price. She thought for a moment and shouted: "4.5 million."

Lu Jiaxin and the young woman went back and forth to bid, and soon the price of the pearl necklace reached 7.1 million.

The other party will add 100,000 each time. Lu Jiaxin's eyes flashed with a stern look, and then she deliberately shouted in a gunpowder tone: "8 million."

The other party immediately shouted out the price of 8.1 million upon hearing this.

Nie Zhan saw that Lu Jiaxin didn't say anything. He wanted to raise his sign, but he didn't expect to be stopped. Lu Jiaxin said: "It's okay. Since she wants it, just give it to her."

Although Australian South Sea pearls are relatively rare, the quality of this necklace at auction only costs over 2 million. But this is for charity, and since she really likes it, it doesn't matter if the price is one or two times higher. But if someone takes her for granted in a ring with her, I would rather not do it. There are so many good things in this world that it is impossible to have them all.

“8.1 million once...” The auctioneer looked at Lu Jiaxin when the bid was announced. Unfortunately, Miss Lu was lowering her head and talking to the male companion next to her.

“8.1 million twice, 8.1 million three times... Congratulations, Miss Lu, this necklace is now yours.”

The hammer fell, which also means that tonight's charity gala is over.

Zong Shimeng smiled and said: "Jiaxin, you are right. The market price of this necklace is just over two million. It is not worth buying it for eight million."

When Lu Jiaxin was calling out the price just now, she winked at Nie Zhan several times to try to persuade him to stop, but unfortunately Nie Zhan shook his head lightly. At that time, she lamented that this is not how money is spent, and she actually spent 8 to 9 million to buy this necklace because of a dispute of temper. Tomorrow's gossip magazines would definitely ridicule her. It's embarrassing to think about spending a huge amount of money and still being laughed at! Fortunately, Lu Jiaxin was sensible and stabilized at the critical moment. Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "I bought it for five to six million, as a contribution to Hong Kong City's charity. But I deliberately raised the price to make me spend more money. It's not like I have too much money to spend."

Sending more money is still a trivial matter. If someone teases you and spreads it out, you will be laughed at.

Outside, Zong Shimeng said: "The person you were competing with just now is named Lu Xiaozhou. She is the second wife of the Lu family of Fuheng Jewelry Company."

Lu Jiaxin asked: "Is it because there is competition between the two companies of Wufu Jewelry and she deliberately raised the price?"

Nie Zhan denied this statement: “When doing business, everyone relies on their own abilities. The rapid development of Wufu Jewelry is due to our business philosophy and policy.

“Fuheng is also developing very well, and the company is now in charge of the Lu family. They will not deliberately raise prices because of this. It should be for other reasons.”

Seeing his serious analysis, Zong Shimeng said with a smile: "Nie Zhan, your Nie family had intended to marry the Lu family, but Lu Xiaozhou's sister didn't like Nie Jingting. Not long after you came back, sister Lu Xiaozhou fell in love with you. Secretly. The elders of both parties wanted to match each other, but you said you didn't want to see each other, so the matter ended in nothing. After you and Jia Xin fell in love, Lu Xiaozhou's sister went abroad for further study, and it's not clear whether she has let it go now. "

Judging from Lu Xiaozhou's deliberately aggressive attitude, it seems that her sister has not let go yet.

Nie Zhan looked at Lu Jiaxin nervously after hearing this, fearing that she would be angry because he had caused unreasonable disaster.

Lu Jiaxin said with disgust: "Just because Nie Zhan doesn't like her sister, you are angry with me. Is this a mental illness?"

"You and I have to be willing to look at each other. If you don't want to, it is a heinous crime? Do you think all the girls in her family are princesses? If they fall in love with her, they must marry them home? There are many royal princesses in ancient times who were refused marriage!"

Nie Zhan comforted him and said, "It's okay. I'll give you this bad breath."

Lu Jiaxin shook her head and said, "There are not two people in this family who are not clear-headed. There is no need to have an enemy because of such a trivial matter."

Zong Shimeng also felt that there was no need to go to war and said with a smile: "Nie Zhan, Jia Xin, I have some friendship with the eldest wife of the Lu family. I will tell her about this and ask her to discipline this Miss Lu."

Jiaxin is generous and doesn't care about her, but not everyone has this tolerance. Today, this Miss Lu is clearly arrogant. If she really goes back with revenge, the Lu family will have nothing to say.

Nie Zhan said: "Then I'll trouble my sister-in-law."

Zong Shimeng called the eldest wife of the Lu family when he got home. He didn't mention the little grievance between Lu Xiaozhou and Lu Jiaxin, and just chatted with her and made an appointment to play mahjong.

The wife in charge is basically a human being, so calling her to chat so late at night must be a drunkard's intention. Thinking of the charity banquet mentioned by Zong Shimeng, she immediately asked someone to inquire about it.

In the afternoon of the next day, Zong Shimeng told Lu Jiaxin: "Mrs. Lu originally wanted to bring Lu Xiaozhou over to apologize to you. I guessed that you were not happy to see her, so I refused for you."

Lu Jiaxin feels that Lu Xiaozhou's parents are quite reasonable: "I have nothing to lose in this matter, so I don't need to apologize."

The pearl necklace was taken by Lu Xiaozhou herself. Eight million is not a small amount, and she will definitely not be able to afford it. This was enough for her to endure.
