Xia Chuyi chuckled lightly, and said, "How about this, to accompany Family Cheng, Iâll also put up my Blessing, Rank, Longevity, Joy jade for company."
"I wonder if everyone agrees with my suggestion?" Finally, Xia Chuâs smile inquired of the crowd.
Agree or not? The crowd remained silent.
In this matter, it would be better for them to be silent observers.
"I agree!" Suddenly, the meeting room door swung open, and Ou ZhenTing and his son appeared at the entrance.
Ou ZhenTing stepped forward and declared loudly, "I agree."
"Uncle Ou, Brother Ou?" Xia Chuyi was taken aback, how did they end up here as well?
Xia Chuyi reflexively turned to look at Huo Shiqian, his eyes full of doubt: Could it be such a coincidence that everyone suddenly decided to attend the Jade Conference?
Could the Jade Conference involve some secret significant matter?
Otherwise, why would they all appear together?
At the same time, Huo Shiqianâs gaze lightly drifted towards Ou Jun â wasnât it agreed to not go overboard so as not to attract Chuyiâs attention?
When Ou Jun met Huo Shiqianâs gaze, there was a slight excitement in his eyes, he nodded, and then looked towards Xia Chuyi.
At this moment, Ou ZhenTing also gazed upon Xia Chuyi with open care.
Seeing this, Huo Shiqianâs brows furrowed slightly, then swiftly relaxed, and he said to Xia Chuyi, "Itâs nothing, letâs settle the jade matters first."
His voice wasnât soft, so naturally Ou ZhenTing and his son heard it too.
Therefore, Ou ZhenTing composed himself, stepped forward, and said, "I am the buyer of number 64."
With these words, the room fell silent.
What? Ou ZhenTing is actually the owner of number 64?
Family Cheng was instantly stunned.
His previous proposal directly harmed the interests of the buyer and seller of the number 64 King of Bids.
Now, the seller, Xia Chuyi, had the support of Huo Shiqian.
The buyer... turned out to be the still-in-power national leader, Ou ZhenTing!
He, he miscalculated the situation!
As for Xia Chuyi, his eyes brightened immediately, and he turned directly to face Family Cheng, saying, "So what do you think, Family Cheng, about my earlier suggestion?"
At this point, Xia Chuyi deliberately paused before continuing, "Family Cheng, sending jade at the last minute, was that your idea... I guess Family Cheng simply mistimed things and didnât intentionally want to disrupt and break market rules, right?"
"Moreover, with my Blessing, Rank, Longevity, Joy accompanying Family Cheng in the bidding, you wonât be at a loss." Xia Chuyi said casually.
Given the circumstances, what else could Family Cheng say?
His face had already turned pale, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
There were only two paths before him:
One, refuse to proceed with the auction, which would be tantamount to admitting market disruption.
Two, grit his teeth and part with his prized jade, selling it on-site.
With things at this juncture, the official quickly took the hint and said, "Miss Xia is noble, Miss Xiaâs suggestion is excellent! Without rules, there is no order, letâs auction these two exquisite jades right here!"
In the end, Family Cheng said nothing more, gritting his teeth, he nodded in agreement.
Seeing this situation, those who were once aligned with Family Cheng looked at each other.
While those like Housekeeper Li, who were not on good terms with Family Cheng, felt secretly delighted.
How wonderful, now that Family Cheng has offended two powerful figures at once, they no longer need to fear him!
Next, the official didnât call for a host but stepped up himself, preparing to conduct the auction.
