Gao Qingmei and Ye Ziyan were clearly not interested in this either, and simply drank their tea casually.
However, at that moment, the doors of the auction hall opened, and the appearance of several women immediately attracted the attention of almost everyone. Several stunningly beautiful women, who would be considered amazing anywhere, walked in.
"Hey bro, look! A beauty! Look at those thighs, that butt, those breasts, tsk tsk..." Tang Aishu's mouth was watering. He stared blankly at the doorway.
Li Yang seemed indifferent, after all, he had seen plenty of beautiful women, and he didn't really care about ordinary beauties.
However, when he caught a glimpse of Ye Ziyan and Gao Qingmei's strange expressions, he turned around in surprise and was so shocked that he almost crawled under the table.
The people who came were none other than a group of beauties led by Xue Tao. Among them were Xue Tao, Zhao Lihua, Cao Xin, Song Tian'er, Wang Yunyi, and Yuan Taozhi.
Li Yang was covered in a cold sweat, wondering how those girls had gotten together.
Li Yang hunched over the table, not daring to look up. He was accompanying two beautiful women to the auction, and his own woman was also there. If they bumped into each other, who knew what would happen?
"Brother, what's wrong with you? You're not even looking at these beautiful women? Don't be afraid of them. They can control everything, but do they think they can control our eyes?" Tang Aishu advised Li Yang, drooling.
Li Yang cursed inwardly, "Damn it, you have no idea I'm in deep trouble right now."
This minor incident only caused a brief pause in the auction before it resumed.
But just a few minutes later, the door suddenly opened again, and a girl adorned with jewels, as proud as a princess, walked in. Her appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention; her whole body seemed to be glowing, radiant and dazzling.
Behind her stood a colossal man, easily over two meters tall, his muscles like a city wall. Many people couldn't help but gasp at the sight of him; if such a burly man were to slap someone, their head would likely be blown off!
When Li Yang saw this combination, his legs went weak.
Holy crap, Yu Dihu and Simba? What are you two doing here? I know you're coming to Jiangdong University soon, but didn't you say it would take two more days to complete the transfer? Why are you here today?
The appearance of Yu Tihu immediately made the main person in charge of the event run around like a madman, serving her with utmost respect, just like Li Lianying serving the Empress Dowager.
Li Yang only needed a quick glance to guess the problem: the source of today's jewelry must be related to Yu Tihu and Xue Tao.
Now, thanks to the huge mineral vein discovered by Li Yang, Xue Tao's Ou Jinliren has directly cooperated with the Jade King of Xinjiang. With abundant jade raw materials and strong financial support, it is of course approved by the bank. With Ye Qing's note, which bank would dare not lend to Ou Jinliren?
Faced with such overwhelming power, the domestic jewelry giant, Brilliant Years, was on the verge of collapse. It was Brilliant Years who had offered a reward on the black market for the theft of Ou Jinliren's treasure, namely Li Yang's imperial green jadeite. Unfortunately, their plan was thwarted.
Li Yang's appearance once again turned the tide, plunging them into an even more predicament.
As the saying goes, when a wall falls, everyone pushes it down! Seeing that Brilliant Years had fallen into such a predicament, it was practically heading towards its demise step by step. So the bank started urging repayment, creditors came knocking on the door every day, employees were restless and left one after another, and the comments from some so-called experts and professors only made things worse.
In just a few months, a jewelry industry behemoth collapsed completely, and Oujinliren became the new aristocracy and the new trendsetter. The jewelry auctioned this time was indeed produced by Oujinliren, and Xue Tao and Yu Tihu were naturally invited to attend.
Yu Tihu originally didn't want to come, but when she thought that Li Yang was here and she could give him a surprise after the event, she flew over.
Although I was a little late, I still made it.
She did indeed give Li Yang a surprise, but it was downright shocking.
As Xue Tao's right-hand women, it's normal for Song Tian'er and Wang Yunyi to participate in such activities.
Cao Xin was just talking to Song Tian'er when she received the notification, so Song Tian'er brought Cao Xin along.
Zhao Lihua, naturally wanting to see something interesting and join in the fun, ended up with the astonishing scene before her.
However, once the women had found their places and sat down, the auction naturally had to continue.
As a result, the final item auctioned was a little-known calligraphy work by Li Yang.
When Li Yang saw this calligraphy piece on stage, he almost fell to the ground.
Holy crap, wasn't this the other day when Zhao Lihua betrayed him to Xue Tao, claiming her calligraphy was excellent and insisting he show off his skills? He had no choice but to write this piece, and he never expected her to bring it here.
Li Yang was sweating profusely. Although his calligraphy was passable, he was not a famous calligrapher and had no reputation. He simply did not have the value to sell it. If he put it up for auction, it would definitely fail to sell. Wouldn't that be embarrassing for him?
I couldn't help but feel frustrated. Although some of the proceeds from this auction will be donated to impoverished students and the Red Cross, you can't treat me like this!
Upon seeing the signature "Li Yang," Tang Aishu was immediately confused. Looking at Li Yang in surprise, she asked, "Brother, you didn't write this, did you?"
"It's a duplicate name, it's not me!" Li Yang said, covering his face.
“I agree. This calligraphy is vigorous and elegant, with the air of a master calligrapher. You don’t look like a grandmaster at all!” Tang Aishu said with an expert’s air.
Li Yang broke out in a cold sweat. "Your judgment? And you dare to offer your critique? Am I really that good at writing? Do I have the air of a master?"
Ye Ziyan glanced at Li Yang with surprise, then remained silent.
Instead, Gao Qingmei kicked Li Yang in surprise and said, "You didn't write that on there, did you?"
"No, no!" Li Yang immediately shook his head.
Chapter 500: Warm and smooth as jade, gently caressing and gently stroking.
Although Li Yang shook his head vigorously and denied that he had written it, the expressions of the crowd became somewhat strange, especially after the women appeared.
After all, everyone is not stupid. They all know that these people have deep connections with the organizers of this auction, and only they can make such an unknown calligraphy work the final item!
Those present are all people of high status, many of them highly educated, and also people who enjoy literature and collecting. They naturally have a good understanding of this piece of calligraphy. At first glance, it is grand and magnificent, with an extraordinary momentum. It is a rare and excellent work of calligraphy.
"Next up is a calligraphy work by a calligrapher who wishes to remain anonymous. It is a copy of Li Bai's 'Ode to a Knight-Errant,' written with vigorous and powerful strokes, truly a rare and exceptional piece. Starting bid: 200,000!" The auctioneer's words immediately sparked a buzz of discussion.
After all, even for many famous calligraphers, a single piece of calligraphy can fetch an extremely high price of tens of thousands of yuan. This person is an unknown figure, although his calligraphy is quite good, and many people who understand calligraphy also think it is very good, but it seems that 200,000 yuan is not worth it!
"Is it really worth 200,000? Could you please introduce who this Li Yang is?" one of the auctioneers couldn't help but ask.
"This is really inconvenient!" the auctioneer said with some difficulty.
"At this price, I really have to question the auction house's sincerity!" someone said with such doubt.
