Chapter 159: Chapter 159 Ice Flower Furong Jade

This woman was originally extremely beautiful, known as a "Rose Beauty". Although she couldn’t compare to Liu Ying, she also possessed a charming quality.

Her smile was like a hundred flowers blooming, making many men in the audience widen their eyes and become interested.

The majority of people attended this charity auction because of the face of the Liu Group.

Now, having such a beauty hosting the auction naturally added a lot of fun and prevented it from becoming dull.

Many people were excited, rubbing their hands together in anticipation of a big event.

Song Qingfei looked around the entire venue, observing everyone’s expressions, her red lips curling into a smile as she said, "Alright, without further ado, I declare the auction officially open! Today’s first item is a diamond brooch."

As her words fell, Song Qingfei clapped her hands and immediately a lady in a cheongsam came over with a tray.

The tray was covered with a red cloth, hiding the item beneath. Song Qingfei stretched out her fair hand and lifted the cloth.

What entered everyone’s eyes was a diamond brooch shaped like a rose.

The brooch wasn’t large, only a few centimeters in length, quietly displayed on the tray, entirely framed with silver, exquisitely and uniquely designed.

The top featured a gem the size of a fingernail cover, resembling blossoming rose petals, tender and dripping with elegance and nobility, glinting under the lights.

Upon seeing the diamond brooch, many women’s eyes immediately lit up.

For something like diamonds, there wasn’t a woman who wouldn’t like them.

Especially such a finely crafted diamond brooch, it was even more irresistible!

The men accompanying the women blushed and prepared to bid and shout out prices, eager to impress the beauties beside them.

"This is a platinum diamond and ruby brooch pendant, originating from the 1910s. The diamonds set within are old-cut diamonds from the Southern Federation, with the largest central stone weighing nearly five carats, provided by Mr. Wang of the Tianzhao Group."

Song Qingfei introduced the origin of the diamond brooch.

The auction items were all donations from wealthy attendees, and payments were made on the spot, used for charity by the Liu Group.

"Miss Song, please tell us the starting price of this diamond brooch. I will definitely win it!"

One wealthy tycoon boldly declared.

Song Qingfei smiled slightly and straightforwardly said, "The starting bid is two hundred thousand, with each bid increment not less than fifty thousand. Please begin."

"I’ll take this diamond brooch for two hundred fifty thousand!" the tycoon immediately shouted.

"Hmph, I bid three hundred thousand!"

"Four hundred thousand!"

"..."

After a round of bidding, the diamond brooch was won by the tycoon for five hundred thousand.

Under the envious gazes of the crowd, the wealthy tycoon proudly presented the diamond brooch to a female companion by his side.

The first auction item was successfully sold!

The auction continued.

The second item brought up was a purple clay teapot from the Ming and Qing dynasties, with a starting bid of five hundred thousand.

After a fierce battle, it was eventually acquired for one million!

The auction still carried on, with the third, fourth ... up to the tenth item being modern collectibles of not very high renown, all selling for under a million, without causing much of a sensation.

After each item was sold, Song Qingfei announced who had provided the item, as a way of giving thanks!

As the auction continued, the prices got higher and higher, with several items’ auction prices reaching over five million.

However, the higher the price, the fewer the participants.

After all, not everyone is willing to donate millions to charity.

During the auction, Lin Tong bid on a painting. Although it wasn’t an antique, it was painted by a contemporary artist and sold for 1.5 million purely for charity.

Soon, the auction was nearing its end.

The last item, a snuff bottle once used by Emperor Qianlong, appeared as the finale.

Various tycoons competed fiercely, and it ultimately sold for ten million to the richest person in East Sea City, capturing the highest bid of the evening!

Now that all the items had been sold, Song Qingfei was about to announce the end of the auction.

However, at that moment, a voice came from the third row, "Wait, I have an item here that hasn’t been auctioned yet. Since it’s for charity, why not let everyone take a look and see what it’s worth?"

Everyone was stunned and turned their heads towards the voice.

They saw Shaopeng, seated in the third row, slowly stand up. He took something out of his pocket with a look of pride on his face.

Recognizing this prominent member of the Song Family and one of the "Four Young Masters of East Sea", many were curious.

It was unclear what Shaopeng would present.

Reacting quickly, Song Qingfei smiled and said, "Since it’s from Shaopeng, it must be something valuable! Qiuxiang, please bring Shaopeng’s item over for auction."

A woman named Qiuxiang, dressed in a cheongsam, promptly approached Shaopeng with a tray.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Shaopeng placed a jade bracelet on the tray.

The jade bracelet was crystal clear, emitting a faint purple glow under the light. The bracelet was carved with patterns resembling ice and snow, quite strikingly beautiful.

After retrieving the jade bracelet, the woman in the cheongsam returned to the stage with the tray.

Song Qingfei took the green jade bracelet from the tray and observed it closely, furrowing her brows with curiosity, "Shaopeng, can you tell us the year of this bracelet and its origins? I have no information; how should I introduce it?"

Shaopeng smiled proudly and replied lightly, "It’s not an antique, just a jade bracelet. However, it is quite valuable."

It’s not an antique? Then how much could it be worth?

Everyone was puzzled.

However, given that Shaopeng was one of Zhonghai’s "Four Young Masters" and the Song Family’s strong background, no one questioned his assertion.

At that moment, Shaopeng, looking around arrogantly said, "This jade bracelet was acquired by my family through a lucky coincidence. Surely, someone among you knows its value?"

As he spoke, his gaze swept across Ye Xuan and Lin Tong in the first row, a hint of malice flickering in his eyes.

The crowd fell silent for a moment until an elderly voice caught many people’s attention.

"I am Tang Fengming, not without some discernment. May I take a look at your jade bracelet?"

Everyone immediately turned their attention.

They discovered that the speaker was an elderly man named Tang Fengming, seated next to the richest person in East Sea City.

"It’s Tang Fengming from Treasure Pavilion!"

"Didn’t expect even him to be here!"

"But with Tang Fengming intrigued, this jade bracelet must be of significant value..."

Recognizing the old man’s identity, the crowd gasped in astonishment.

Tang Fengming was no ordinary person, or else he wouldn’t be sitting in the front row next to the richest person in East Sea City.

His Treasure Pavilion was the premier jewelry store in East Sea and among the top in Yan Country, with branches in every city and a net worth exceeding one billion!

Furthermore, not only was he the owner, but he was also the top appraisal master in East Sea. No one could be more suitable for the task.

Tang Fengming walked onto the stage and carefully picked up the jade bracelet for a closer examination.

A minute later, under the eager gaze of the audience, Tang Fengming slowly began, "This jade bracelet is made of Ice Flower Furong Jade and is worth at least twenty million..."
