Inside the auction hall.
Most of the attendees were influential figures from several districts.
In addition to those in the main hall, there were more distinguished guests in the private rooms on the second and third floors.
Wang Yuyan and Qin Xuan arrived at a private room on the second floor.
On the third floor, even Wang Yuyan's grandfather would not have the资格 to enter a private room.
This auction only had three lit private rooms on the third floor.
One private room was occupied by Chu Shaofan, while the other two were occupied by Wu Qianxi, the young master of Qianjue Jewelry, and Mo Jin, the head of the Mo family's business in Dongyong City.
Chu Shaofan, with one arm bandaged and held across his chest, glared ferociously at Qin Xuan and Wang Yuyan on the second-floor balcony.
Qin Xuan felt Chu Shaofan's gaze and looked up, meeting his eyes with a smile.
Contempt, mockery, and disdain.
Chu Shaofan gnashed his teeth in anger.
"Damn it, Mo Tao, that bastard, must have brought them in again," Chu Shaofan slammed his hand on the wooden table in front of him and roared.
"Back in the capital, this guy always liked to oppose me. Don't let me catch him one day, or I'll make him wish he were dead!"
"Young Master, shall we..." The middle-aged man standing behind Chu Shaofan made a throat-slitting gesture and spoke.
Chu Shaofan shook his head, a chilling smile appearing on his face.
"Forget it, my father told me to lie low for a while. Things are a bit tight in the capital. Wait until after the auction, then you..."
"Yes, Young Master." After Chu Shaofan gave his instructions, the middle-aged man nodded and turned to leave the private room.
Half an hour later, with most guests having arrived, the auction began.
A woman in a white dress, with an outstanding figure and elegant demeanor, walked onto the auction stage.
Her appearance instantly captured the attention of everyone present.
This woman was the chief auctioneer of Qianjue Jewelry, Wang Hanzhi.
It was rumored that the value of goods sold by this woman had exceeded ten billion.
Not only was she beautiful, but her words could make men bankrupt themselves.
As soon as Wang Hanzhi stepped onto the stage, she smiled at the crowd and began her opening speech.
"It is indeed a great fate for me, your humble servant, to gather with all esteemed guests here again this year..."
Some of the auction guests were mesmerized by Wang Hanzhi's captivating smile.
"Wow! Is this the 'Flower of Auction' from Qianjue Jewelry! A goddess!"
"Cough cough... Finally, I have the honor of beholding the beauty of Goddess Wang. She is truly breathtakingly beautiful!"
...
Many new attendees were here solely to catch a glimpse of Wang Hanzhi, the "Flower of Auction" of Qianjue Jewelry.
Having seen her today, their trip was not in vain.
Qin Xuan understood why Wang Hanzhi had become the chief auctioneer of Qianjue Jewelry.
With such looks, a figure, and a mouth that could charm the world, it was difficult not to become number one.
"Enough talk, let's get straight to the point. This year, we at Qianjue Jewelry have selected ten top-grade raw stones. These ten raw stones are guaranteed to yield jade!"
"Now, let us begin the bidding for the first raw stone of this auction."
Wang Hanzhi waved her hand, and two beautiful women in cheongsams pushed a small cart containing a raw stone onto the stage.
Wang Hanzhi then began her introduction.
"This raw stone weighs one hundred and twenty-six jin. According to expert appraisal, the jade content of this raw stone is above sixty percent, and the variety is excellent. It's definitely worth acquiring!"
"The starting bid is five million! The bidding increment must not be less than one hundred thousand. Let the auction begin."
"Six million!" As soon as Wang Hanzhi finished speaking, someone started bidding, raising the price by a million yuan at once.
"Seven million!"
"Seven and a half million!"
