Chapter 813
"There are quite a lot of five manors. What are the prices?" Jiang Hao asked casually while watching the lively auction scene.
"The cheapest set is £1.6 million and the most expensive is £18 million," Laura said.
Jiang Hao's eyes widened, he turned to look at Laura, and asked with a little surprise: "1.6 million to 18 million, isn't the span too big?"
"I have seen the information and photos. The 18 million manor is really beautiful. They have just been renovated, not in the style of an old manor. The various facilities inside are very modern, with complete furniture decoration, swimming pool and sports hall. Both, the downstairs garage can hold 5 cars, the most important thing is that it has a very professional underground vault with an area of 300 square meters, which can fully meet your needs, don't worry about money, I think this auction will be over You can afford it." Laura said with a smile.
Jiang Hao always felt that there was something else in Laura's smile, as if she was choosing a house for herself.
However, the villa that Laura mentioned was indeed very attractive to him, and he could move in directly without waiting for a long time, which was what Jiang Hao wanted most.
"Snapped!"
At this moment, the hammer of the auctioneer fell, pointing to a British collector and said: "Congratulations to the lady No. 134, who bought this set of superb gold coins with Queen Himiko's head at a price of 2.88 million pounds."
"Papa papa!"
Everyone applauded and congratulated.
Next came the auction of two bronze mirrors, which finally sold for 1.02 million pounds. As for the gold seal that did not bear the "King of Wei and Japan", it was sold at a price of 2.89 million and was bought by the Japanese.
Next, finally arrived at the auction that attracted the most attention, Susano's golden armor. More importantly, if you buy it, you can also get Susano's bones.
Many people were eager to try it, especially those Japanese, and each of them became nervous.
"Susano's golden armor. Before we talk about this armor, let's talk about who Susano is. He is the younger brother of Queen Himiko. Queen Himiko became the first queen of Japan and did not really manage it. Some people speculate that she is practicing her own witchcraft, and it is this Susano who really manages and rules Japan."
"Queen Himiko's descendants are revered by the Japanese as the most lofty god Amaterasu, and this Susanoo is revered by the Japanese as the god of killing, death and war in Japan, and is the most powerful god. .”
"Now please bring up the treasure."
The scene suddenly remembered a burst of passionate Japanese-style music. The Europeans had no reaction when they heard this music, and the faces of the Japanese became even uglier after hearing this music.
It seems that the next issue is not about money, but about Japan's national dignity.
Several security guards pushed up a trolley. After the trolley was pushed to the center of the auction platform, the cover was opened, revealing a golden armor inside. This armor had a typical Japanese general armor style, and the family crest on the head was a circle of suns. The pattern represents his family.
"A full set of Susanoo armor, with all the parts intact, is extremely well preserved. It is extremely rare to be preserved after 1700 years, and it is the armor of the gods. The base price is 18 million pounds, and each increase must not be less than 200,000 pounds."
Hearing the reserve price of 18 million pounds, Jiang Hao couldn't help turning his head to look at Laura. This price was not set by this girl, why is it exactly the same as the price of the manor she fancy.
The auctioneer continued: "This set of armor itself has extremely high collection value, research value, and historical significance. There is another point to explain, that is, when this set of armor was discovered, there was a skeleton inside. After deduction, it should be a mustache. The bones of Sanenghu himself."
"Of course, we don't sell the bones, but because they are a set, whoever buys this set of armor will end up with Susanoo's bones."
"Okay, now I announce that the auction will begin."
swipe swipe~
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, more than a dozen bidders raised their signs, and the auctioneer shouted excitedly.
"18.2 million."
"18.4 million."
"."
"20 million, it's already reached 20 million."
But this price was really just the beginning, and then the price soared all the way, and within a few minutes, the price reached 30 million, but there were still seven or eight bidders raising their placards, and none of them seemed to give up.
"35 million."
"38 million."
"40 million."
At this stage, the price soared rapidly, reaching 40 million in just three bids.
"51 million." The Japanese raised their placards calmly.
"53 million." An Englishman raised his placard calmly.
"55 million." A Chinese raised his placard calmly.
I don't know if this Chinese is here to disrupt the situation. Anyway, he hasn't taken a single lot up to now, but he has been persevering in increasing the price. Jiang Hao looked at the Chinese from the side. The money man, not the trustee, but he felt that this guy might be more involved in disrupting the situation for the Japanese.
Maybe he is enjoying the feeling of cheating the Japanese. There are everyone in this world. Who knows if he has a grudge against the Japanese, or just doesn't like it at all, so he came here to try to cheat the Japanese.
The price continued to climb, and finally reached the height of 60 million. The Chinese put down the sign, and finally only the Japanese and an Englishman remained.
£60 million is not much,
a lot of,
This is a huge fortune.
But there are not many antiques worth more than 60 million in the world, hehe, there are many, but those real national treasures, only those antiques that have participated in auctions, the auctions with a price of more than 100 million US dollars cannot be counted in two hands, and the most expensive ones exceed $450 million.
Although this set of gold armor does not have as high artistic value as those works of art, it also has its own value. It is definitely a national treasure among national treasures in Japan.
The other buyer is Constantine. He came with a mission and must buy this lot, otherwise his position in the Holy Trinity may not be guaranteed.
"62 million."
"63 million."
One is carrying a heavy mission for the dignity of the country, and the other is for his own rights and status, neither of them intends to give up.
Jiang Hao's eyes saw Constantine, and he didn't recognize this person at first, because the character Constantine only appeared in the game, but not in the movie, which was somewhat distorted.
Now he finally recognized that Constantine, the younger brother of Laura's stepmother Anna, was also an entrepreneur with assets of hundreds of millions of pounds. The mercenaries who went to Yamatai Island this time should be arranged and supported by him.
Jiang Hao took a deep look at him again, remembering this person's voice and appearance in his mind, who knows if he will meet him again.
"76 million."
"80 million."
huh huh huh.
When Constantine reported this figure, there was warm applause at the scene. The price of 80 million pounds has already exceeded the actual value of this set of armor, even with the skeleton of the so-called Japanese god.
But everyone at the scene could see that the two of them were no longer investing in art, but really wanted to get him, and maybe he had other meanings.
At this time, the Japanese gritted his teeth, stood up abruptly, bowed deeply to Constantine and said, "Sir, please give me this set of armor. He is the battle armor of our Japanese gods. With his bones, in humanitarian terms, you should let him go home too, so please." Then he bowed again.
Constantine just glanced at the Japanese indifferently and said, "They are also of great significance to me, so I won't give up."
The Japanese straightened up, gritted his teeth angrily, and squeezed out a sentence: "81 million".
"85 million."
The two hit it off again.
"100 million pounds." Constantine finally shouted out the number. From the beginning to now, 10 minutes have passed since the auction, and everyone felt a kind of suffering, let alone the two opponents.
The Japanese had an ugly expression on his face. The price really exceeded their budget too much, but he didn't dare to give up, because if he chose to give up, he might become a sinner of Japan. sin.
"100.2 million." The Japanese made a final struggle.
Just when Constantine was about to continue raising the placard, his mobile phone rang suddenly. He took out the mobile phone to look at it, and immediately connected it to his ear. Everyone at the scene stared at him on the phone, and the atmosphere was tense and weird.
Konstantin kept listening, at most he said a few words, but he didn't say a word. Finally, the call ended. He put down the phone, looked up at the Japanese and said, "Congratulations, I give up."
The Japanese felt that his whole spirit was exhausted, and he finally took the photo, but there was no smile on his face, because the price was really too high.
A vigorous auction was finally over. Jiang Hao and Laura walked out of the auction house. Laura smiled and said, "Jon, congratulations, you are now a billionaire."
"If the auction house doesn't charge commission, I think it will be enough." Jiang Hao said.
Laura showed a sly look, and said with a smile, "That's impossible, 10% commission is not high, and the income of this one is more than ten million, haha, my small coffers have increased again."
It's really incomparable with this kind of rich woman.
"It's almost 12 o'clock, why don't we go have dinner?" Jiang Hao suggested.
"Of course, and you treat guests, today you have earned hundreds of millions." Laura said.
The two came to a western restaurant and ordered food. Laura put a piece of salad into her mouth and said, "You are rich now. After dinner, why don't we go and see those houses together, and you can do it as soon as possible." Settle down."
"It's a good idea to look at the house." Jiang Hao raised his glass and said with a smile.
Now that he has money, the 18 million manor seems to be good, who doesn't like bigger and better ones.
After the two had finished eating, the waitress brought hot drinks, put the tray on the table, and first served Jiang Hao a cup, and when the waiter was serving it to Laura, for some reason, his hand slipped suddenly, and the cup of coffee splashed When he fell down, half a cup of coffee was directly spilled on Laura.
"what!"
Laura couldn't help screaming, and immediately stood up. She was wearing a light-colored floral dress today, and there were coffee stains all over her belly and skirt.
The waiter was terrified and stood by blankly, not knowing how to react.
The manager of the lobby immediately ran over when he noticed the situation here, and was surprised when he saw the situation on Laura, and asked the waiter next to him, "What's going on?"
"I, I accidentally knocked down the cup." The waiter said in fear.
The lobby manager didn't blame the waiter first, but turned around and bowed to Laura to apologize, "I'm very sorry, miss, because our waiter's negligence has stained your clothes, our restaurant will be responsible for the compensation."
At this time, Jiang Hao had come to Laura, and asked with concern, "Did you get burned?"
"No, but I'm afraid I can't take this dress. I bought it yesterday. It's a pity." Laura shrugged helplessly.
"Our restaurant is responsible for compensation." The lobby manager apologized again.
Laura looked at her clothes with a helpless expression on her face, "Jon, I'm going to the bathroom."
"OK."
Laura came to the bathroom and took a look in the mirror. There were a lot of coffee marks on her clothes, and she really couldn't wear them anymore. It seemed that she was going to find a store to buy a new set of clothes, but it was really embarrassing to go out like this what.
At this moment, there was a knock on the toilet door, and Laura was taken aback. Who would knock on the door even if they came to the bathroom?
"Who is it?" Laura asked tentatively.
"Laura, I'm Jon, is there anyone else in the bathroom, can I come in." Jiang Hao asked outside.
Laura was a little dazed, but there was no one else in the bathroom at this time, "Only me, what do you want?"
Before Laura could answer, Jiang Hao pushed the door open and came in, holding a large plaid cloth in his hand.
"Jon, what are you doing?" Laura asked in surprise.
Jiang Hao smiled, "It's probably uncomfortable for you to look like this now, do you need me to make a skirt for you temporarily?"
"How is it possible to make a skirt now?" Laura asked in disbelief.
"Take off the skirt on your body, and I'll make it out for you immediately." Jiang Hao said.
"Take off your skirt, now?"
"Actually, you don't have to be shy in front of me. You forgot that we are best partners and we used to sleep together."
Laura suddenly remembered the experience of sleeping with Jiang Hao and touching his abdominal muscles, and her face felt a little hot.
Now the skirt on her body is full of coffee, and it is very uncomfortable to wear, "Let's take it off inside, it will be embarrassing if someone comes in."
Because regular exercise makes her skin firm, her two long legs are definitely at the Victoria's Secret level.
Jiang Hao shook the plaid cloth in his hand and wrapped it around her body. The two horns were passing through the chest and made a cross at the back of the neck. In just a few seconds, a plaid suspender skirt appeared.
Laura was amazed,
"This is the tablecloth?"
"Yes." Jiang Hao replied with a smile.
"Jon, I see that you seem to know everything."
"Learn more and see more, I believe you will too."
In this small space, the two looked at each other while talking, and there was a bit of ambiguity in the air. Suddenly, neither of them knew what to say, and the time seemed to freeze.
"Jon, we"
"Don't talk." Jiang Hao lowered his head slightly.
At this moment, Laura's heart beat faster than the most vigorous exercise.
a long time
"Let's go out." Jiang Hao said.
"Oh well."
When the two returned to the restaurant, the lobby manager and the waiter were still waiting. They were a little surprised to see Laura's outfit. The lobby manager apologized again and expressed his willingness to bear the loss this time, including buying a new dress.
Laura is in a good mood now, she smiled and said: "She didn't do it on purpose, I forgive her, so don't blame her, as for the skirt, this tablecloth should be used as compensation."
After Laura finished speaking, she picked up her bag and left with Jiang Hao, walked out the door and looked at the respective dresses in the sun again, and smiled heartily at Jiang Hao, "I think it looks pretty, so that's it, we now Just go and see the house."
"Of course." Jiang Hao said.
When their car left, the lobby manager breathed a sigh of relief, patted himself on the chest, and said to the waiter next to him: "You are really lucky to meet a generous and rich man. If you want to compensate her Skirt, I'm afraid you will have to pay a few months' salary."
The waiter widened his eyes in surprise, "Is it that expensive?"
"If I'm not mistaken, it's Donna Karan's latest summer style, more than 8,000 pounds." The lobby manager said.
The waitress covered her mouth in shock, really scared.
You said you rich people, why are you wearing such expensive clothes when you have nothing to do? Isn’t this a scam?
