Chapter 119 Tianrui Group President Appears at the Auction

However, after the auction of the 15-year-old Polygonum multiflorum started, the price kept rising from 20 to 20. There were more than a dozen guests who booked tables to participate in the auction, but after the price reached , there were only seven left.

"21 million!"

"22!"

"25 million!"

Li Wan'er bid 25.

As soon as Li Wan'er finished bidding, the guest at table number 6 raised his sign.

"28 million!"

Then, Murong De, who was seated at table number 9, raised his placard and called the price.

"31 million!"

Tables 6 and 9 in the auction venue were bidding against Table 8 where Chu Yunhao was, so the bidding price for the Centennial Polygonum multiflorum reached new highs step by step.

There was another round of bidding among the three bidders, and soon the price reached 37.

37 was the price Li Wan'er called out. This time, table number 6 did not follow the bidding. Murong De on the side thought about it and finally raised the sign in his hand.

"40 million!"

When it reached 40, Li Wan'er looked at Li Baolin hesitantly. Li Baolin also shook his head at this time. After all, 40 was beyond his budget.

Chu Yunhao didn't expect that it was Murong De who would bid against them. He was unwilling but there was nothing he could do. After all, the right to bid was in the hands of the old shopkeepers Li Baolin and Li Wan'er, and he couldn't say anything.

The mall is like a battlefield. Murong De, who was just chatting and laughing with the old shopkeeper Li Baolin, now has a serious face, as if he is determined to get the hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum. Although personal relationships are important, compared with precious medicinal materials and status in the family, Murong De still chooses the latter.

The old shopkeeper Li Baolin didn't expect that Murong De was also interested in this century-old Polygonum multiflorum. After some consideration, he finally shook his head helplessly at Li Wan'er, which meant he decided to give up.

When the auctioneer saw that no one was bidding, he just hit the hammer.

"40, once..."

"40, twice..."

There was silence for a moment. Just when Murong De thought he was about to win the bid, a deep voice suddenly rang out: "45!"

Everyone in the venue looked in the direction of the voice and saw that someone at the final table number 42 was raising a sign and bidding.

There were four people sitting at the guest seat No. 42. As they were wearing hats pulled down, their identities could not be seen clearly.

At this time, Chu Yunhao felt familiar with the bidding just now. Although the four people at table 42 wore hats pulled down, he still recognized the identities of the four people. However, he did not have any special reaction and continued to watch the bidding of the century-old Polygonum multiflorum in the venue quietly.

"45, once..."

"45, twice..."

After the auctioneer called out the bid for the second time, Murong De wanted to raise his paddle to bid, but after hesitating for a long time, he still did not raise his paddle, and his forehead was covered with sweat.

"45, sold!" The auctioneer dropped the hammer and congratulated, "Congratulations to the guest at table No. 42 for winning the 48th-ranked Centennial Polygonum Multiflorum!"

After the century-old Polygonum multiflorum was auctioned off, giant clams appeared on the display stand, and the next item to be auctioned was the giant clam ranked 49th.

"Xiao Chu, it's okay." At this time, the old shopkeeper Li Baolin said to Chu Yunhao with a smile, "Haha, it's not easy to get the precious medicinal materials at the auction at the price you want. But what? To buy good precious medicinal materials, you can not only go to the auction, but also there are many other channels to get them, so coming here depends on luck."

"Old shopkeeper, I know." Chu Yunhao also said with a smile. He didn't seem to care because he was thinking about other things at the moment.

The 48th ranked giant clam has a reserve price of 20 yuan. According to the comments of the on-site experts, this giant clam is one meter in size and comes from the deep sea of ​​the East China Sea. The whole giant clam is crystal white and looks like a fine work of art.

The prescription that Wu Yanzi prescribed for Chu Yunhao to strengthen his body included giant clams. At first, Chu Yunhao didn't know what giant clams were. At that time, Wu Yanzi described it to him as a large shell.

Why did the giant clam, which is a large shell, become a precious medicinal material? At that time, Wu Yanzi answered Chu Yunhao's doubts, and Chu Yunhao knew the medicinal effects of the giant clam. The giant clam has the effects of calming the mind, cooling the blood and lowering blood pressure. It can be said to be the best tranquilizer.

Of course, giant clams are not only medicinal materials, but also can be processed into various craft decorations such as giant clam beads. Just like ambergris, ambergris is not only a medicinal material, but also the best spice in the chemical industry.

The bidding for the giant clam was even more intense than that for the century-old Polygonum multiflorum. The starting price was 15 and the bidding went all the way up to 40.

After the old shopkeeper Li Baolin called out a price of 40, the only remaining guest at table No. 20 hesitated but still raised his sign to call out.

"45 million!"

The old shopkeeper saw that the other party's bid had reached 45, so he could only bid 50, but he shook his head and withdrew.

This giant clam is indeed very good, but it exceeds Li Baolin's psychological price of 40. In his opinion, such giant clams can be obtained from abroad through external channels, so he gave up the bidding.

"45, once..."

"45, twice..."

The auctioneer raised the hammer but before it fell, the familiar deep voice rang out again: "55!"

Everyone knew that this was the bidding voice of the mysterious guest at table No. 42, and this time the starting price was directly raised by .

"55, once..."

The guest bidding for table No. 20 did not expect that someone would make the final bid halfway through, and it came from the guest bidding for table No. 42.

"55, twice..."

When the auctioneer made the second confirmation bid, the four guests at table 42 did something surprising: they took off their hats together! At this moment, everyone present recognized the couple.

The middle-aged man holding the bidding board in his hand is Chu Tianrui, the president of Tianrui Group in Nanshi. The elegant lady next to him is his wife Dong Jiawei. Chu Tianrui and Dong Jiawei are not only household names in Nanshi, but also well-known news figures in the whole of China. The Chu family they belong to is the leading wealthy family in the southern region. Chu Tianrui has built the huge Tianrui Group with his outstanding business acumen, which is like an indestructible business empire. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as he stamps his feet, it may trigger a financial storm like a storm.

The male guest at table 20 wanted to raise his sign to bid several times, but after being persuaded by the two people next to him, he glanced in the direction of the seats for the guests at table 42, and he instantly put down the sign in his hand like a deflated ball.

"55! Deal!"

No one would have thought that Chu Tianrui and Dong Jiawei from Tianrui Group would come to the medicinal materials auction to bid for medicinal materials. At this time, Murong De and Murong Xue, who were at table No. 9, saw Chu Tianrui, and Murong Xue immediately said in surprise: "Chu Tianrui, the president of Tianrui Group!"

Chu Yunhao and Wu Yanzi could both hear Murong Xue's voice, but at this moment Wu Yanzi saw Du Xiaoxiao at the guest seat at table No. 42.

Du Xiaoxiao seemed to notice that Wu Yanzi was looking at her, but she still smiled at Wu Yanzi.
