Zhu Yu made a rare discovery that several small gold sacrificial vessels were also on the auction block.
They were all auctioned separately. Zhu Yu's eyes could tell that these sacrificial vessels were in exquisite packaging boxes and had not been touched. There is also plenty of energy inside.
In this auction, these gold sacrificial vessels that were actually dug out by Zhu Yu were basically auctioned off as gold handicrafts.
The starting price of each piece is basically no more than one million US dollars due to the quality of the gold.
So Zhu Yu was very relieved to take pictures, and he won one piece for an average of five million US dollars.
Guest No. 18 competed with Zhu Yu several times, obviously trying to raise the price for Zhu Yu.
Zhu Yu let go once, and a golden mask fell into the hands of guest No. 18.
On the 18th, his face turned dark!
It was just a piece of gold, and if it was sold, it would only cost one million U.S. dollars at most. But in the end, he spent 4.8 million to get it!
He didn't expect Zhu Yu to stop following!
So next time, when Zhu Yu made another shot at the Golden Weapon, he never dared to follow suit again, and would let go after reaching two or three million at most.
Zhu Yu harvested a set of eight wooden totems and photographed five golden sacrificial vessels. This trip was considered a complete success.
But Zhu Yu knew that this was not the ultimate goal.
He still hopes to capture the virgin forest where White Bird Lake is located.
I just don’t know if this forest is included in the auction.
The bidding lasted two hours, with two breaks, before the final hour of the auction came.
Zhu Yu had no way of finding out what was in the final auction, so he could only wait.
Zhu Yu was also comforting himself: Being able to get that totem pole during this trip was already a worthwhile trip.
Even if the forest is not auctioned next, there will be no regrets.
The items auctioned in the third hour all have great potential.
The first auction was a small lithium mine.
As we all know, lithium batteries are definitely a big field in terms of new energy research and application.
Therefore, lithium mines, even small lithium mines, immediately aroused frantic competition among many people.
Zhu Yu was not involved. The ownership of this kind of minerals was beyond his control.
Originally, some of the brands were at the front, and several single-digit guests were sitting at the front. They had never raised their cards before, but now they suddenly started to quote.
Zhu Yu was happy to watch the excitement.
He discovered that No. 18 also held up a sign, but his offer was quickly suppressed by others.
Eventually the ownership of the lithium mine was taken away by Nine.
Next is a batch of chemical raw materials.
Zhu Yu was a little curious as to what Brown was doing, and why he felt like he had everything in his inheritance.
Then there was an oil painting, said to be a famous work by John Singer Sargent, and the old man who pulled Smith over held a sign.
Smith stepped forward to help with the appraisal this time, and the old man finally took the oil painting.
The value of each subsequent lot was over ten million dollars, and the auction was also very fast. Some people seemed to have formed a tacit understanding. Some people participated, while others gave up.
These things are more professional, so there are fewer people bidding, and not many people participate. Some people even left early because they had already taken pictures of what they wanted.
"Next up for auction is a piece of primeval jungle in Arkansas. Mr. Brown once found treasure there worth over thirty million dollars. So, this is a treasure trove. The starting price is ten million dollars - start bidding now. !”
Detailed information such as the location, area, tree species, tree age, etc. of the original forest appeared on the big screen.
Zhu Yu carefully looked at the enlarged satellite pictures and quickly found the White Bird Lake, which had expanded a lot!
This is it!
There was a brief silence at the auction site because of this!
No one bids!
The auctioneer was a little embarrassed. He immediately said loudly:
"Everyone looks at the big screen. This virgin forest covers tens of thousands of hectares. Although most of the trees are not suitable for felling, they are renewable resources!
in addition! "
He raised his voice and said loudly:
"Besides! Mr. Brown has searched for very valuable treasures here! In such a large area, who can guarantee that there won't be other treasures?"
"It's just that the transportation is very inconvenient." someone said.
Zhu Yu simply wanted to thank that god for the assist.
Some people actually want to auction it. Not to mention anything else, even if the wood is chopped, it is still a fortune.
But some people immediately backed down when they heard about the inconvenience.
Even if there is wood, what's the use? If the freight is too high and the labor costs are added to it, it will be worthless to ship the wood!
Zhu Yu slowly raised his hand:
"Ten million dollars!"
He actually made the move at the lowest price!
Zhu Yu has actually attracted some people's attention.
Although Zhu Yu had never sold more than 10 million yuan in the entire auction, the total price of the six auctions had exceeded 20 million yuan. It was obvious that he was not a poor boy.
As soon as Zhu Yu spoke, No. 18 immediately turned his head and looked over.
Zhu Yu looked over without showing any signs of weakness, and the meaning in his eyes was very clear. If you want to intercept the auction, I will give you the thing.
No. 18 was frightened by Zhu Yu's look. He hesitated and finally did not speak.
Zhu Yu smiled proudly.
For some people, you have to give them some color.
But not everyone hopes that Zhu Yu can succeed.
The auctioneer was a little grateful to Zhu Yu, but he also complained a little: You raised the price after all, what do you mean by asking for the lowest price? Don't like this place?
Then someone raised their hand:
"Ten million dollars!"
"Okay, okay, guest No. 22 bids US$1,000,000! US$1,000,000 is the first time... Is there anyone who bids higher..."
Zhu Yu felt that this person didn't really want to take the photo, but just wanted to raise the price!
Of course, this was just an intuition, but the auctioneer didn't care. He continued to shout loudly:
"Ten thousand and a second time, is there anyone with a higher bid..."
"One thousand and one hundred thousand." Zhu Yu held up the sign.
"Guest No. 43 bids 1,011,000. Is there anyone else who bids higher? This primeval forest not only has beautiful scenery, but also has many wild animals. It is a good logging site and a good hunting ground..."
I don’t know whether it was because of the auctioneer’s deception or because some people felt that this place was really worth the price, but some people started to participate in the bidding:
"Eleven million dollars!"
The auctioneer breathed a sigh of relief, and finally broke through the zero in the middle. He shouted excitedly:
"Guest No. 28 bids eleven million dollars! Eleven million dollars! Thanks to this beauty for her good eyesight! Is there anyone else who bids higher? Eleven million dollars for the first time..."
"11.5 million U.S. dollars." Zhu Yu held up his sign.
At this time, everyone could see that Zhu Yu was determined to buy this virgin forest.
However, guest No. 28 and the subsequent guest No. 37 had no intention of letting Zhu Yu succeed. They increased the price in turn, pushing the price to US$21 million.
Zhu Yu still steadily increased the price by half a million dollars.
At this moment, guest No. 37 raised his hand to call the waiter, whispered a few words, and then the waiter went over to speak to the auctioneer.
Zhu Yu's expression changed.
He saw the waiter's mouth shape, and the meaning of guest No. 37 was obvious: he questioned whether Zhu Yu had the financial resources to take pictures of these things!
After all, he has already bought more than 20 million US dollars in auctions before!
If it was done deliberately to cause trouble, then this auction would obviously be a disgrace.
The auctioneer hesitated for a moment and then said:
"The auction was temporarily interrupted. Some guests on the scene questioned whether our guest No. 43 was capable of bidding on this lot.
I know it's rude to ask this, but in order to ensure the smooth progress of the auction, I feel it is necessary to ask..."
"Don't worry, I have enough money to pay for these lots that have been taken."
"That's not necessarily true." Someone said angrily, "Who can't talk nonsense?"
Zhu Yu saw that person - No. 18.
He felt very angry.
We are all Chinese, so it’s okay if we don’t help ourselves. Why do we come out and try to undermine ourselves?
At this time, Smith spoke:
"I can testify that guest No. 43 has a net worth of hundreds of millions, and he can still afford it."
Smith is a celebrity in New York, so when he said this, some people believed that the auctioneer also knew him, and the matter was over.
The auctioneer also said sincerely:
"I'm really sorry, guest No. 43. It was my mistake to doubt you for this. Okay, let's continue the auction."
A minor farce ended because of Smith's endorsement, but Zhu Yu's mood did not improve.
However, guest No. 28 withdrew from the bidding. In the end, Zhu Yu bought the ownership of this virgin forest for US$27.5 million.
He should have been very happy originally, but because of the farce in the middle, Zhu Yu was a little unhappy.
He is unhappy and a little willful.
In the next auction, whenever numbers 18 and 28 open their mouths, Zhu Yu will put up a bid.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhu Yu is seeking revenge.
But he doesn't care, he is rich and willful.
In the end, after the entire auction, in addition to the set of totems, five golden sacrificial vessels and the virgin forest that Zhu Yu wanted, he also took a photo of a wine estate and another area that is under investigation. It is said that there is a high possibility of an oil field. of the wild west.
The total price exceeds $100 million.
But Zhu Yu didn't feel like he was spending money indiscriminately - not to mention how many gold treasures there were in White Bird Lake, the energy in that set of redwood totems couldn't be exchanged for ten or one hundred million US dollars!
At the end of the auction, Zhu Yu turned out to be the largest bidder.
Zhu Yu walked to Smith first and said:
"Thank you, Mr. Smith, thanks for your help this time."
"No, no, no." Smith waved his hand, "Zhu, you are actually too low-key. With your financial resources, you can easily move in the upper class..."
"That's impossible." Zhu Yu waved his hand, "My skin color determines that I can't enter the upper class society, and I'm not interested in it either."
Smith smiled and made no excuse. In fact, the reality in the United States is such that the so-called equality is nonsense. No matter how rich people of color are, they will be marginalized unless they kneel down and lick them.
Zhu Yu went to transfer the money and pay the fee, and then got what belonged to him.
He also saw the hateful expression on the guy No. 18, but when Zhu Yu looked at him, the man turned around in a hurry, obviously not daring to look at Zhu Yu.
Useless.
Zhu Yu knows the virtue of this kind of people. They would like to suppress the people who are not as wealthy as them, but if they encounter hard problems, they will be fierce and internally afraid of the other party's retaliation.
This is the characteristic of some people.
"Boss, do you want to teach this guy a lesson?" Ran Jie asked quietly.
"No need. It's just a lost dog." Zhu Yu was too lazy to pay attention to this guy. He didn't expect that in a few days, he would have the opportunity to meet again.
After loading all the auction items into the car, Zhu Yu went home happily.
Back home, Zhu Yu asked Ran Jie to call Cao Dalong and Qin Fei over, and then asked them to move several gold sacrificial vessels from the car:
"You each take one piece and go back to your bedroom to absorb the energy. When you are done absorbing it, return the things to me."
The three people were overjoyed. They naturally knew the benefits of the energy in it, but money couldn't buy it!
Zhu Yu asked them to move the remaining two gold sacrifices and the set of totem poles to his bedroom. Zhu Yu also collected the information.
These things need to be sorted out carefully. Now Cathy is still recovering from her illness, so I won’t disturb her for now.
Back in his bedroom, Zhu Yu originally planned to absorb all the energy in the cross, but when he saw the green energy in the totem pole that others could not see, he was excited and planned to give it a try.
When he reached out, he found that the energy in the totem pole was unmoved.
Obviously, ordinary contact cannot absorb the energy.
It's normal to think about it. Otherwise, if the energy in these totem poles had been absorbed long ago, would it still be his turn?
Zhu Yu put the totem pole on his forehead and used his Heavenly Eye to absorb energy. A burst of warm and vital energy poured into his body!
Feeling that all the hidden wounds in his body were being repaired, Zhu Yu was filled with strength!
Then he looked at the totem and found that not much of the totem's energy had disappeared.
What a good thing!
Zhu Yu was very happy.
He looked at the two golden sacrificial vessels again, and then thought of Cathy's body, so he went to find Cathy with a sacrificial vessel.
"Mr. Zhu, is this what you got from the auction? It looks very unique." Cathy asked after seeing the golden bear mask.
Cathy was reading in her room, and Zhu Yu put the bear mask on the table and said seriously:
"Ms. Cathy, there is a special energy in this mask, the same as what you once felt on that huge golden totem pole. If you absorb this energy, your body should get better as soon as possible."
Cathy was a little surprised and then smiled.
She looked at Zhu Yu:
"Mr. Zhu, this thing...should be very precious, right?"
Zhu Yu understood what he meant and said with a smile:
"Precious is precious, but it's not particularly precious to me. I also hope that you can get well as soon as possible and help me manage the industry. So this is considered a bonus paid in advance."
Cathy smiled again and didn't refuse.
Zhu Yu turned around and left.
The wastelands, primeval forests and wine estates he has on hand really need Cathy to integrate them, so this is really a bonus paid in advance.
Then the next day, Robert brought him new news, which made him a little surprised.
This kind of thing actually happened to him!
