With these words, the entire banquet went into an uproar. Many people were stunned by the old man's report. This was just a small scale charity auction. He never would have thought that the first item to be auctioned would be in the millions, which was beyond the imagination of many people.
The host was also very excited. He immediately gave an impromptu interview to Kim Jong-il and asked, "Mr. Jin, may I ask how much you spent to purchase this jade pendant? And why take out such a beautiful jade pendant to partic.i.p.ate in this charity auction? "
Kim Jong Xun enjoyed the looks of admiration and admiration from the audience. He proudly said, "I spent close to one million dollars on this jade pendant. It's a jade that I like very much. I've been wearing it on my person for the past two years. The main reason why I took it out to partic.i.p.ate in the auction today was because I felt that today's charity auction was very meaningful. At the same time, as a public figure, I feel that we also have the responsibility to report back to the society, so I decided to take out this jade pendant to partic.i.p.ate in the bidding, and hope to repay the society with my abilities, thank you everyone! "
After saying that, Kim Jong-il pretended to bow towards the audience. When the translator translated his words, the party broke out into a round of applause.
The host took the opportunity to announce loudly, "Now let me announce the start of the bidding for this gla.s.s emperor green jade pendant. The starting bid is five million yuan and each bid is not less than five hundred thousand yuan!"
As soon as the host finished his words, Pu Zhixian smiled and said to the people around him, "I have always liked this piece of jade belonging to Zhengxun. Today is such a good opportunity, to be able to obtain this piece of jade and to contribute to the charity work. I bid 5 million! "
The scene went into an uproar again, but in less than ten seconds, another voice came over, "I want to join in the fun too, I want to bid 5.5 million!"
The bidder was standing next to Pu Zhixian. After the bid was announced, he and Pu Zhixian were still talking and laughing in a low voice. Obviously, he and Pu Zhixian knew each other for a long time.
Shangguan Wan asked curiously, "Big Brother Qin, you want to help him?"
Qin Hai whispered something in Shangguan Wan's ear. Shangguan Wan couldn't help covering her mouth and chuckling. She nodded and walked to Xu Tong's side and whispered what he had said to him.
Xu Tong could not help but burst out laughing. He raised his right hand and shouted, "I bid 10 million!"
On the stage, when Kim Ju Hui heard this, he was overjoyed. In fact, he had already discussed this matter with Pu Zhixian and the others. He took out the jade pendant to auction, while Pu Zhixian and co. were responsible for buying the jade pendant. In the end, he transferred the money to Pu Zhixian and the others, which meant that no matter how much the jade pendant ended up with, the money would still be paid by him. Although 6 million was a lot, but for the sake of his future in China, this money was worth it.
Of course, this was under the a.s.sumption that no one else would partic.i.p.ate in the auction. Now that there was someone else partic.i.p.ating in the auction, he no longer needed to be responsible for paying the sum of 10 million. At most, he would lose a jade pendant.
But when Kim Jong-il looked in the direction of the voice, he was stunned to find that the person who had just made the bid was Xu Tong. It was as if ten million heads were flying in his heart.
The reason why he had taken out this jade pendant to compete in this auction was truly because he wanted to use it to make Xu Tong apologize. The reason why he had taken out this jade pendant to partic.i.p.ate in this auction was because he wanted to use it to make Xu Tong apologize.
Helpless, Kim Jong-il had no choice but to turn his pleading eyes to Park Zhi-hsien.
The crowd went into an uproar once again. No one had expected that the first item to be auctioned would fetch a sky-high price of over ten million.
Not to mention that Xu Tong was still eyeing him covetously. If that girl offered a sky-high price of twenty million, even he wouldn't be able to afford it.
Sure enough, as soon as Pu Zhixian finished speaking, before the crowd's hubbub had completely subsided, Xu Tong raised his hand once again.
However, at this moment, Mrs Xu who had been standing on the other side of Xu Tong silently pinched his arm, sending him a warning look. Xu Tong pursed his lips and put his hand down again.
After a while, when the host announced loudly that Pu Zhi Xian was the final winner of the auction, Kim Ju Xun quickly jumped off the stage and went back to Pu Zhi Xian, saying, "Brother Zhi Xian, thank you. I will transfer the money to you later!"
Kim Jong Xun's face turned livid with anger. He glared at Qin Hai and said angrily, "This b.a.s.t.a.r.d, I won't forgive him!"
Xu Tong giggled, "Big Brother Qin, it's better if you teach me the way. But how did you know they would continue to bid? "I was scared to death just now. If no one offered a price, I wouldn't have that much money to buy this jade pendant."
