Found 100 Million In My Rented Apartment - Chapter 1881

Chapter 1881: How Dare You Have Designs on My People?

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Humph!”

Ye Feng snorted coldly. “Who cares about Huirong Trading Company, who cares about their boss, since he dares to have designs on my people, he must pay the price!”

“Master!”

Fuuma Jianwu’s eyes turned red.

On the first floor, John Lee had no idea that he was about to be in trouble.

At this moment, John Lee was greeting the Fog City’s celebrities in the hall as if they were friends. Although many people didn’t know John Lee, they still did their best to respond to John Lee out of basic courtesy.

This made John Lee’s smile even brighter.

With a smile, John Lee walked to the front row of the auction hall unhurriedly. Then, as if he had forgotten his seat number, he slowly took out the invitation letter from his shirt pocket.

After looking at it for a while.

John Lee went straight to the fifth seat in the first row.

In an instant, countless eyes turned to John Lee.

Seeing that John Lee was sitting on the fifth seat, not to mention the wealthy and famous people of Fog City sitting behind him, even Ye Feng who was looking down from the second floor was surprised.

One had to know that not everyone could sit in the first row.

Among the seats in the Cohen Auction House, the first row of seats in the hall was second only to the VIP rooms on the second floor. In most cases, the people sitting in the first row were either the top tycoons of the Sun Never Sets or nobles above the Earl rank.

Because of this, everyone was surprised to see John Lee sit in his chair.

Feeling the gaze on him, John Lee was ecstatic. He had made the right bet this time. He had spent a million dollars to buy the invitation letter from someone else.

He had felt stingy when he bought it, but now it seemed that the one million dollars was worth it.

After all, this opening was too eye-catching. All the famous people in the hall now knew him. As long as he won a few expensive items, the famous people in Fog City would remember him.

At that time, it would no longer be a dream for him to enter the upper-class circle of Fog City. His Huirong Trading Group would also use the upper-class circle of Fog City to gain a firm foothold in the Empire of the Never Setting Sun.

Just as he was thinking.

A gong sounded.

Accompanied by the sound of gongs.

An auctioneer in a tuxedo stepped onto the stage.

After a round of polite greetings, the old man began to get down to business. “In this auction, our auction house has arranged a total of thirty-one items. Each of these thirty-one items is authentic. I hope that everyone will return with a harvest!”

“Next!”

“Please welcome the first item!”

“‘Snow Field’ by the famous painter, Anfei Toque. This painting was created by Anfei Toque in his later years when his skills had reached their peak. It’s the most precious painting among Anfei Toque’s works.”

“The starting price is 200,000 Sun Never Setting pounds!”

“Each increase in bid must not be lower than 50,000. Begin now!”

“2.05 million!”

“2.15 million!”

“2.2 million!”

As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, bidding sounds rang out from below the stage. In the blink of an eye, the price of “Snow Field” had already exceeded 2.5 million.

Very quickly.

The painting was bought at a high price of 2.7 million Sun Never Setting pounds.

As the first auction was completed, the atmosphere at the auction venue began to heat up.

However…

On the second floor, Ye Feng did not make a move.

On one side.

Fuuma Jianwu was a little puzzled.

Logically speaking.

Her master was here to look for the Graff Diamonds Hallucination Watch, but why did he not seem anxious at all?

She thought to herself.

Fuuma Jianwu, who was obedient, didn’t say anything.

Very quickly.

Only three auctions were going on downstairs. Apart from the first, which was Anfei Toque’s “Snow Field,” the second, which was the Mughal Gold Seal, and the third, which was the bronze sword with the head of an Inca wolf, were all sold at pretty good prices.

After three rounds.

The atmosphere became more and more lively.

“Everyone,” the auctioneer said. “Next, we will be auctioning a treasure. I believe you have already seen this item on the auction list!”

“That’s right!”

“This item is the Ming Zhengde Hetian Jade Buddha, which is ranked third on the list!”

“According to our experts’ research, this jade Buddha statue was specially made by Emperor Mingwu Zhengde of the Dragon Country for his mother, Empress Dowager Zhang, in the Ming Dynasty. The materials used and the craftsmanship were all top-notch at that time!”

“It’s a pity that Emperor Zhengde died young!”

This auctioneer was not only good at telling stories, but he was also good at stirring the emotions of the audience. He sighed and said, “After Emperor Zhengde died, Empress Dowager Zhang stayed with the jade Buddha, the green lamp, and the ancient Buddha that her son made for her until she passed away!”

“Therefore, everyone, what you are buying next is not just a jade Buddha, but also a piece of history!”

“This is a high-grade Hetian Jade Buddha given to his mother, Empress Dowager Zhang, by Emperor Mingwu Zhengde. The starting price is 3 million Sun Never Setting pounds. Each bid must be a raise of at least 50,000. The auction will begin now!”

“3.1 million!”

“3.15 million!”

As soon as he finished speaking, there were already a few voices saying that they were bidding.

The people of the Sun Never Sets Empire had a natural interest in the things of foreign royal families. The elements of foreign royal families were a bonus for the nobles of the Sun Never Sets Empire.

Moreover, the auctioneer’s story was indeed moving.

At this moment, a figure in the front row suddenly stood up.

“Five million!”
