Dragon Clan: Write a diary, why is it Shura Field every day?

Chapter 83 The Soth Auction Officially Begins

The driver opened the door elegantly and waited quietly for the passengers to get off. Ye Yang did not forget to turn around and reach out his hand when he got off the car.
"Ms. Xia Mi, it's time to get off the bus."

A pair of red high heels stretched elegantly forward, with the graceful outline of the calf curve above them, making it unforgettable at first sight.

With just one glance, people's thoughts begin to wander.

When one tries to look upwards, the sight is blocked by the skirt that is blooming like a lotus, which makes one feel regretful.

Beautiful things are often like this. It is a blessing to be able to see its beauty.

And more beauty is left to those lucky ones who can lift the hem of their skirt.

Two meters away, a waiter in a white tuxedo stood quietly, looking a little dull.
But in fact it is not the case.

His job is to open the car door for the guests and then wait quietly.

When the car door closed and the guest looked over, the waiter politely said:
"Mr. Ye, welcome to tonight's auction."

"Please follow me."

Without the guests having to speak, the waiter can see everything and provide attentive service throughout the entire process.

Isn't it the way it should be in such a high-end occasion? The guest's information has been memorized.
The vehicle they are riding in, its color, license plate number, and estimated time of arrival.
The guests’ names, likes, dislikes, and even details such as their birthdays are all known.

Here, even the smallest waiter can be different.

The entrance passage is not spacious, it can even be said to be a bit narrow, similar to a fire escape, only about three meters wide and dimly lit.

Ye Yang held Xia Mi's hand and followed the waiter. The air was filled with the scent of various perfumes, which were strong but not pungent.

They walked on the exquisitely paved red carpet. The passage seemed to extend infinitely. Ye Yang could not see the end.
It gives people the illusion of entering a mysterious world, making people feel excited and nervous involuntarily.

Ye Yang realized that
This narrow passage is also carefully designed. Once the guests participating in the auction step into this deep corridor,

They unknowingly fall into a designed situation, no matter what the result is,
This will enhance their overall experience of the auction. People always crave excitement.

Those who have so much wealth that they don't know how to spend it, they go to auctions,
I hope to improve my taste and temperament by purchasing artworks.

They particularly prefer this kind of atmosphere...it can be said that

From the beginning, their psychology was carefully mastered.

As they walked along, the road ahead suddenly became brighter, and Ye Yang realized that they were about to reach their destination.

Soon, a spacious hall appeared in front of everyone. It was an opera house that could accommodate thousands of people.

The dome-shaped ceiling is illuminated by crystal chandeliers, and the golden ceiling forms a sharp contrast with the ground covered only by the red carpet.

The rows of seats are made of high-quality Irish red velvet. The spaciousness and brightness here form a huge contrast with the darkness of the previous passage.

At this moment, even the most ordinary things can seem extremely shocking.

“The person who organized this auction really knows how to capture people’s psychology.”

Xia Mi whispered to Ye Yang, the bright light completely illuminating her face, and her pupils were shining like black gemstones.

Ye Yang couldn't help but glance at Xia Mi. "We haven't seen the principal yet, let's find a seat and sit down first."

Each chair is embedded with a brass numbered plate engraved with the unique number of the designated seat so that guests can easily identify their position.

The seats are numbered in a clear pattern, and if you pay a little attention, you can quickly find your seat.

This is similar to the math problems people did in elementary school about finding patterns.

Ye Yang quickly found his seat, which was in the center of the tenth row, an inconspicuous and ordinary corner.

Sometimes, strategy is like this, in the most inconspicuous position, performing the most inconspicuous behavior,

Finally getting what you desire makes everything seem natural.

By the time the news of the auction spread widely and everyone realized it, it was already too late.

Exhibit No. 8 has already been successfully purchased by Kassel Academy.

The auction attracted many guests, who greeted each other in the corridors between the seats, the men shook hands, the women nodded to each other, and everyone had their own things to do.

Sitting in the first row, Ye Yang spotted Principal Ange.

At some point, a female companion appeared beside him. She looked to be around forty years old, and her temperament and demeanor were impeccable.

At first sight, one might even mistakenly think that the Queen of England was present in person, her magnificence was beyond imagination.

Ange was talking to an acquaintance, with a happy smile on his face and a rosy complexion, and he seemed to be in a very good mood.

"Look, there's our principal."

Ye Yang mentioned, and pointed at Angers. Following Ye Yang's guidance, Xia Mi quickly found the principal.

"Spray." Xia Mi said, and the principal also had a female companion.

"She looks..."

Xia Mi suddenly paused. It was not that she couldn't think of an adjective, but she was considering whether she should use this word to describe the principal's female companion, worried that it might seem impolite.

"Outshining all the others?"

Ye Yang helped Xia Mi finish the sentence.

Xia Mi looked at Ye Yang blankly, her eyes full of doubts about whether this adjective was appropriate.

Indeed, among the female companions in the first row, the one brought by the principal seemed like a fairy from heaven.

Her appearance instantly amazed everyone, and no one could match her wherever she went.

"Look how happy the principal is smiling."

Xia Mi pointed out,

"How does this look like acting? It's simply his true self!"

Ye Yang couldn't help but laugh. Xia Mi felt that it was quite bold to tease the president of her college so directly.

But it seems that what Ye Yang said is not without reason. The principal's behavior does not show that he is carrying out his mission at all.
Instead, it seemed more like he was here to show off his female companion.

The waiter walked through the aisle holding a bell. As the bell rang, the people who had just been talking politely said goodbye.

Then everyone found their seats. The ringing of the bell was a signal that the auction was about to begin.

No one wanted to break the rules on such an occasion. The crystal chandeliers gradually went out, and when the entire opera house fell into darkness, the lights on the stage came on.

The scarlet curtain slowly opened, and a man in a black tuxedo stood on the stage.

Ladies!
Gentlemen!
The Soth Auction has officially begun!
"Let me introduce myself first. I am the auctioneer of this auction.
Johnson. ” He went on to say,
"However, my identity is not important. What is really important is that this auction will show you some unique works of art in the world."

He emphasized,

“Each piece is unique!”

He raised his voice.

"Everyone! Please keep your number plates safe so that when the auction items you like appear,
You can bid now!" Johnson then announced,
"Now, let's start the auction of the first exhibit..." As he spoke, two assistants carefully carried the first exhibit onto the stage.

It appears to be a bronze artifact with a pot-shaped object as the theme, on which is carved a lifelike crouching tiger.

"As you can see, the first item we auction is a bronze vessel from the Daxia period, and its name is 'Hu Ying'."

Johnson continued, “Its history can be traced back to the late Western Zhou Dynasty.

Decades ago, it flowed out of Daxia, changed hands many times, and finally fell into our hands. "

He paused, then said, "I believe you all have an estimate of the price of bronze artifacts from the same period."

"The collection value of such cultural relics is beyond words."
