Chapter 636 Five years later
Li Hexiang was helpless, her consciousness recovered a little at this time, and she didn't feel as uncomfortable as before. She heard a man's voice in a trance, and felt that the man seemed to be ordering something. When the man finished speaking, Li Hexiang was carried away by several people.
"what happened…"
Li Hexiang thought to herself, she wanted to struggle, but she had no strength.
Time passes, five years later.
At Yancheng Dongying Auction House, the auction is in full swing.
"Take a look, don't miss it when you pass by! This is the painting of the most famous master Jiang today. If you like it, you can take a picture of it, and you can come and see it!"
A beautiful woman in the auction house held up a painting. Everyone was attracted by the sound, and went to look at it one after another. A few people who knew how to paint saw the painting in the hands of the staff, and couldn't help admiring:
"The workmanship of this painting is very good. It is really rare to see such beautiful lines."
"I like its style very much. I'll bid for 30,000 silver!" A man with the appearance of a businessman couldn't help but raised his hand. The offer couldn't help but make people on the side laugh. The man felt the disdain and turned to question. :
"Why are you laughing? Is it because my bid is too high?"
The man looked at him contemptuously, and said, "Too high? Are you kidding me? You are ashamed to offer 30,000 taels of silver, and I will offer 50,000 taels of silver!"
He raised his hand, thinking that he had already bid the highest price, and this painting must belong to him. Thinking that he could buy this painting for 50,000 taels, he was already happy.
"Seventy thousand!" A voice not far away interrupted his fantasy, and the two men looked back at the same time, only to see a man in blue walking out of the crowd slowly.
The staff of the auction house were very happy when they saw this, and shouted: "This young master offered 70,000 taels of silver! Anyone else raise the price?"
The people in the audience were silent, and the man who just returned the price was lost in thought. Seeing that no one raised his hand, the staff continued: "One time for 70,000 taels of silver! Twice for 70,000 taels of silver..."
At this moment, another man interrupted the staff quickly, raised his hand and began to increase the price, "Eighty thousand taels!"
When the staff heard this, they stopped immediately, and the men looked at each other, feeling secretly unhappy. Finally, amidst the price increase of the men, the painting was photographed by Master Jiang for 100,000 taels of silver.
After a while, the auction ended. The staff who had just been on the stage picked up the banknotes and walked backstage. When they saw Jiang Jiuhe and Chu Mu, they handed the banknotes to Jiang Jiuhe, and at the same time flattered them. Say:
"Master Jiang—you can cooperate with us on any painting in the future, and if you have the opportunity, you must show it to us."
Jiang Jiuhe nodded, and then left the auction house with Chu Mu.
On the way, Chu Mu said, "I didn't expect that you could get a hundred thousand taels of silver for this painting. I really have lived up to my experience with you for so many years."
Jiang Jiuhe listened to him, laughed out loud, and said, "Jiuhe didn't expect to be able to sell so much money. It's because you taught me well, Master. Sure enough, it was the right thing to do to worship you as a teacher five years ago."
"But you still need to work harder, Miss Liang Yi." Chu Mu called out Jiang Jiuhe's previous name again, and Jiang Jiuhe patted Chu Mu's shoulder lightly when he heard it.
"Didn't you tell me not to call me by my name? I'm Jiang Jiuhe now."
Jiang Jiuhe said with a smile on his face.
