Xiao Yang was eating alone on the buffet table in the banquet hall.

People around him cast strange gazes at Xiao Yang.

Xiao Yang ignored these gazes. He grabbed the food on the dining table and looked at the time on his mobile phone. There were fifteen minutes left before the auction began.

Xiao Yang stretched his hand to the last piece of pastry in front of him.

Just as Xiao Yang was about to catch the pastry, the pastry plate was knocked over by someone.

Xiao Yang looked back and saw a young man standing aside and knocking over the plate. It was his unconscious action. The young man was holding his cell phone, staring at the screen of the phone, cursing something.

As if he noticed someone looking at him, the young man raised his head, looked at Xiao Yang, and shouted: "Look at your father?"

Xiao Yang lowered his head and did not pay much attention to it.

The young man's eyes continued to be on the screen of his mobile phone in front of him.

Time passed minute by minute, and the time of the auction was getting closer and closer.

The guests spontaneously sat in the guest seat in front of the auction table to welcome the start of the auction.

The auction began under the host's speech.

One product after another is sold at a high price. Those who come here will not care about the true value of the product. What they want is nothing more than a charity name.

As time goes by, the last item was presented to the stage by two beautiful etiquette girls. This is a stone book. It is rumored that it remembers the most realistic decline of a dynasty in the ancient summer. However, the text is particularly ancient and has not been translated yet. Because of its stone quality, it can be sealed for longer than paper books. This book was listed as a national treasure product a long time ago. This time it was taken out for auction, everyone knew very well that the person who took the stone book would donate the stone book to the museum at the auction site in exchange for two fame. Donating other things in the past would not have such a great effect.

It can be said that the most important part of this auction is on the last stone book lot.

"Everyone, the introduction of this historical book clearly states the manual in front of you. The starting price is one dollar!"

When the host shouted out this price, the auction price of the stone book had reached five million in two price increases. This price is actually just an appetizer. Even the final buyer does not want the price to be so low. The higher the price of the stone book, the greater the reputation they gain.

When people reach a certain position, money has no big idea about them, and what they want more is something else.

"Ten million!"

"Twenty million!"

"Fifty million!"

"One hundred million!"

After reaching this price, everyone knew in their hearts that the real secret war only began at this time.

"Everyone, this book should be kept in my hot summer. I will pay 120 million yuan. This book will be donated to the museum for free!" A middle-aged woman stood up and said.

"Mr. Yan is really proud. He donated 120 million yuan free of charge. He is a model of our business world!" Someone immediately flattered him.

"Haha, actually, I also want to donate free of charge, for fear that such national treasures will flow into the hands of outsiders. However, all the amount of the auction will be donated to the mountainous areas. For the mountainous areas, 120 million is a little less. I will pay 150 million!" Someone stood up and fought for it, and the words were very beautiful.

"Since I'm working for the country, I'll participate too, 180 million." Someone spoke again.

"Two million, donated to the museum free of charge and delivered on site!"

One person after another spoke. At this time, if you don’t say that you don’t pay for free, you will be embarrassed to bid.

The competition was particularly fierce, but the price rose a lot slower.

Just as everyone stopped moving forward, a middle-aged man stood up and said, "Three hundred million! Everyone, don't fight with me anymore, serve the country, and give me a chance."

As soon as the middle-aged man spoke, the people present who bid for the price stopped their voices because the person who bid for the price was not ordinary.

Seeing that the scene was quiet, the auctioneer nodded. He had been in this industry for so long and understood that the price was over.

"The first time with 300 million!"

"Three hundred million second time!"

"Three hundred million..."

"Billion." A voice suddenly rang out.

The number of billions made everyone present rush in their hearts!

One billion! Use one billion to buy a reputation? Who does this?

Everyone looked at the place where the sound came. What they didn't expect was that the person who called out the billion was the weird guy with messy hair and a big bag on his back.

The man who just called out 300 million was frowned. He thought that someone might have to compete with him. His reserve price was 400 million, which was already the limit, but he didn't expect that the person who fought with him would call 1 billion at once! This price was not something he could accept at all!

Even the auction host and auctioneer were shocked by the price.

After Xiao Yang shouted out the price, he sat silently in the corner.

Under the host's eyes, an auction staff member trotted to Xiao Yang and whispered something.

Everyone here understands that this is an auction to verify capital. Although the probability of a random bid at such a charity auction is almost zero, the price of this billion is too amazing.

The staff talked in a low voice with Xiao Yang for a few words and made a gesture.

The host on the stage nodded.

"The first time for a billion!" the auctioneer spoke, which also told everyone that the person who bids has the ability to take out a billion.

This message made many people look at Xiao Yang with good looks. It is hard for them to think how much financial resources a person with a reputation can have.

Those who looked down on Xiao Yang before regretted it now. Why didn’t they seize the opportunity to get close to such a person before?

The price of one billion is not something that anyone present can surpass.

"Billion second time!"

"The third time for a billion!"

"Dong!" The gong sounded.

"Congratulations to Mr. Xiao, for buying this historical book for a price of one billion!"

The host spoke out loudly, and then there was applause at the auction.

"Next, please invite Mr. Xiao!" The host made a call on the stage.

Eight etiquette girls wearing dresses and beautiful figures came to Xiao Yang, stood in two rows, and made a gesture of invitation.

Xiao Yang had a weak expression and walked onto the stage and took the stone book.

"Next, the donation ceremony!" The organizer pulled out the donation banner that had been prepared long ago.

The people from the museum also greeted him with a smile on their faces, "Thank you Mr. Xiao!"
Chapter completed!
