Even if the gift was authored by Pan Wei, everyone would be thrilled; it would definitely be a profit.
But now, it turns out to be a work by Tony, Pan Wei’s ntor, which is simply a level above Pan Wei’s work.
Pan Wei might be sowhat famous in the Divine Land, but not in Asia. However, Tony is a world-class master.
The mont they heard the gift was Tony’s work, everyone present got even more excited.
This trip was worth it!
After all, not everyone can easily obtain Tony’s works like Price can, and this opportunity is simply like manna from heaven.
Now everyone had one thought: to skip all the preceding steps and go straight to the final one, directly auctioning Pan Wei’s work.
Those who had planned to have multiple acquisitions were silently deciding not to act earlier and to prepare for this mont.
In the front, Price noticed the eager expressions in Ji Xiaofeng and Ding Wenjun’s eyes. He curved his lips into a smile and glanced at Ye Chenfeng and Ji Qiushui sitting in the back.
His eyes exuded great confidence, as if he was determined to secure today’s art exhibition, especially Pan Wei’s work.
"Idiot!" Ye Chenfeng casually uttered.
Ji Qiushui gave Ye Chenfeng a puzzled look. He smiled and said, "See? Didn’t I say that guy was an idiot? He’s still smiling."
"Look, the masters are entering." soone shouted.
The entire hall erupted into thunderous applause as about ten masters entered through another door of the exhibition hall.
"Look, that’s Master Pan Wei."
"So envious, he’s actually Tony’s apprentice."
"Wait till Master Pan Wei’s work shows up, it’s surely going to be a bloody battle! Truly looking forward to it!"
...
The entrance of the masters made the atmosphere of the exhibition even more intense, causing greater anticipation.
The auction of the art exhibition imdiately comnced...
The author of the first piece was sowhat renowned, and as soon as it appeared, it was snapped up, fetching a decent price of over a million, though that was nothing to these elite mbers of the Capital City.
...
The second piece auctioned for three million!
The third piece auctioned for five million!
...
The seventh piece auctioned for ten million!
The fa of the subsequent works increased, and naturally, the prices also skyrocketed. The exhibition’s atmosphere was gradually reaching its climax.
"The starting bid for the eighth exhibit is five million!" as the auctioneer announced the price, many people were raring to go.
"Ten million!"
But suddenly soone raised their paddle and directly shouted a bid of ten million.
"Gasp!"
"Directly increasing by five million! This is too extravagant!"
The sound of shocked gasps continuously echoed through the room.
"Ten million once, ten million twice..."
Finally, this piece was auctioned off after one more bidding.
"The price for the ninth exhibit is..."
"Twenty million..."
Once again, a person directly shouted double the price.
"Twenty-one million!" soone tried to compete.
"Thirty million!" But the other party’s next bid made everyone despair.
The sa situation arose with the following two exhibits; no one dared to compete with him, the bidding was too extravagant, and his price imdiately ended all competition.
So people wanted to fight, but rembering that the best item was at the end, they held back, one could say, they were fully preparing for the final exhibit.
"So exhilarating!"
During the auction, Ye Chenfeng was so bored that he fell asleep.
At this mont, Ye Chenfeng woke up and stretched luxuriously.
Ye Chenfeng glanced ahead; Ji Xiaofeng and the others had gained quite a lot. They didn’t make a move in the earlier rounds, but they secured the last four pieces.
"This foreigner ca just to give away money, and he even seems proud." Ye Chenfeng glanced disdainfully at Price.
That’s right, the previous bidder was Price, whose level of extravagance shocked everyone, even though attendees were all the wealthy of Capital City.
"Who do you think the young foreigner sitting next to Ji Xiaofeng and Ding Wenjun is?"
"Yes, I’m curious too. Although he has been bidding, it’s in the na of the Ji family. Who exactly is he?"
"I know who that foreigner is, he’s Price, the heir of the Mien Family, South Arica’s top consortium, and has a very good relationship with Ji Fengyu. It’s rumored he has his eyes on Ji Qiushui and intends to pursue her."
"Huh? The first consortium in South Arica? I know, frankly, it’s sothing the Ji family can’t even compare with."
"If the Ji family and the Mien Family were to marry, it would be invincible, and it would spell disaster for the other families."
"Judging by his actions, he’s probably determined to get Master Pan Wei’s last artwork. We might as well be cannon fodder."
...
Various discussions were abuzz, and after learning Price’s identity, most people expressed sheer amazent.
"Haha, Price, although you do things flamboyantly, you have the strength to back it up." Ji Xiaofeng was imnsely pleased by the amazent from the surrounding crowd.
Acquiring four masterworks, even Ding Wenjun showed a smile on his face.
"These gifts from Price are too generous. You already gave us gifts when you first arrived." Ding Wenjun said sowhat embarrassedly.
Price smiled and replied, "Auntie, what is this? The initial offering was just a greeting gift. What cos next is the pièce de résistance, the best present for you all."
Although Price’s words were full of pomp and arrogance, Ji Xiaofeng and Ding Wenjun couldn’t help liking him even more.
Instead, both secretly decided to get past Ji Qingrong’s hurdle.
In both public and private regards, marrying Ji Qiushui to Price is the best decision.
Finally, the mont everyone had been waiting for arrived. Next up, Pan Wei would make his grand entrance.
"Thank you for your love. To the final bidder, you’ll receive my treasured collection, a work my master gave to . I’ve acquired countless treasures, but I believe this one is the most aningful, and of course, the most valuable." Pan Wei acknowledged the audience’s expectations, not forgetting to speak before the auction.
"Just kidding, of course it would be the most valuable, being a work by Master Tony."
Pan Wei’s proclamation further ignited the entire hall’s enthusiasm.
Many were brimming with energy, just waiting for this mont to co.
Moreover, everyone understood that many wealthy individuals who hadn’t acted yet were about to strike. For Price, securing this work wasn’t going to be easy, and he might not even succeed.
"In this art exhibition, the final piece is a work from Teacher Pan Wei, starting at thirty million!"
