《Being A Shrew To My Ex-Husband》Chapter 56: One Million Per Bid
Advertisement
He only passed the violin to his daughter before he died. Later, in the war era, the Master’s daughter had no choice but to sell the violin for money in order to survive. Generations after generations, the violin finally became an item that was on auction that night.
Su Yan wanted this violin not because she knew how to play the violin, nor because she liked to collect it, but because she wanted to give it away.
How could a person who had received professional violin training since young not like this kind of gift? Especially since there was a meaningful history behind this violin.
There was reliable news that the Chairman of Wan Long Group was going to emigrate soon and was currently processing the shares in his hands. Su Yan was interested in these shares. However, she was not the only one who had such intentions. So, in order to show her sincerity, she had turned her attention to the gift. The violin that was being auctioned that night was the best gift.
After the auction began, the host sold one item after another. There were antique blue and white porcelain, famous paintings, watches, and all kinds of rare gemstones. Many rich people spent a lot of money and got the things they liked one after another.
Three hours passed and only when the last item was auctioned did Su Yan put her phone away. She looked at the stage with a face full of expectation. The violin, “Favorite”, regardless of handcraft, collectible value, or humanistic feelings, without a doubt, would be the most anticipated item of today’s auction.
Under the lamp, Favorite’s surface emitted a brown-black luster. The clear and beautiful wood texture, as well as the unique shape of the head, gave people a very simplistic feeling.

After the host’s concise introduction, everyone understood that this violin was indeed authentic after being appraised. The auction was willing to pay ten times the price as a guarantee. At the same time, they learned that this violin was too old, although it could still be played, the internal structure was different from violins today, so the way it was played and sounded was different.
Most importantly, if they were not wrong, no one could make a replica of this ancient violin, because the materials used to make this ancient violin had been completely extinct a hundred years ago.
“Everyone, pay attention. The starting price for the violin is three million, and each bid must not be less than five hundred thousand. The bidding begins now!” The host said.
In the VIP room on the second floor, Wei Zhou turned off his phone. He was also not interested in the previous items. After hearing the introduction of the violin, he finally looked up.
He liked efficiency when it comes to doing things. He picked up the bid card and raised it: “Four million!”
The person, who shouted at the same time with a voice that was louder than his, was actually a woman downstairs. She sounded very familiar.
The host knocked on the small hammer and said with a big smile: “Four million, this beautiful lady is willing to bid four million!”
Raising the bid by one million the moment she opened her mouth, everyone below the stage was stunned. Lan Jian was speechless and said: “Who’s downstairs? Who dares to snatch things from you? !”
He could naturally recognize Su Yan’s voice. After all, he had just heard it during the day. He said this on purpose to agitate Wei Zhou, instigating something just because he was not involved.

Wei Zhou glared at him and raised the bid card again: “I bid five million!”
“Wow...” The entire venue was in an uproar. Another one million. Did these people’s money come from the wind?
The host’s face was beaming: “Thank you for the support of this VIP from the VIP room on the second floor. This gentleman bids five million. Is there anyone else who wants to compete with this gentleman?”
When the host said this, his gaze had already shifted to Su Yan. The last sentence was meant for Su Yan to hear. He could not wait for Su Yan to continue bidding. The higher the bid, the higher the commission he would receive.
Su Yan raised her eyebrows. Without hesitation, she raised the bid card again: “Six million!”
Hearing this number, those who had originally wanted to participate in the bidding immediately threw the bid card on the ground. Six million had already exceeded the value of this violin.
“Seven million!” Wei Zhou raised the bid card again and his cold voice spread throughout the entire auction.
Su Yan frowned. She was not stupid.. She knew that “Favorite” was not worth this price. If she continued to raise the price by one million, would people not treat her like a fool?
