Run!There's something really weird about this escape room!

Chapter 68 Auction

The two security guards looked at the sound, and then their bodies suddenly trembled.

"Master Ningning, it is this woman who is causing trouble here for us."

Ning Zuo stepped forward quickly and glanced at the two security guards with cold eyes.

"Making trouble? That's nonsense! This Miss Yan is my distinguished guest. Do you want to get me out of here too?"

The two security guards looked at each other and immediately shook their heads.

"Master Ning, we don't mean this!"

"Humph, it's best if you don't mean it!"

Ning Zuo snorted coldly and turned to look at Yan Yue with a smile on his face.

"Miss Yan, let's go in!"

Yan Yue nodded and followed Ning Zuo towards the venue.

The two security guards had bitter expressions on their faces. Although this was not the first time they had encountered this kind of fucked up thing, every time they encountered it, they felt as if they were dumb and eating coptis.
The auction venue is very large, several times larger than a large IMAX theater.

As the opening approached, the venue was already full of people. Those who could attend the auction were all upper-class people. Everyone was wearing suits and ties, and their faces were filled with the expression of a successful person.

The venue is divided into two parts. There are seats in the front and a row of eight boxes in the back.

Ning Zuo took Yan Yue into one of the boxes. Looking at the decoration in the box, Yan Yue couldn't help but sigh that the boss here was wealthy.

Yan Yue sat on the sofa in the box. In front of the sofa was a large and luxurious coffee table with a variety of fruits and drinks on it.

In front of the coffee table is a huge one-way glass wall. Through the wall, people in the box can view the scene outside, but the situation in the box cannot be seen from the outside.

Yan Yue picked up a bunch of grapes and said while looking at the crowd of people outside the glass wall.

"Actually, you don't need to get angry with those two security guards."

Ning Zuo picked up two bottles of red wine from somewhere and put them on the table. He shrugged and said.

"You don't have to pity them. All you earn from working here is getting scolded. You don't really think that those two guys can stop any gun-wielding gangsters, do you?
Want a drink?This is good wine! "

Yan Yue shook her head, picked up a bottle of Coke from the table and said.

"Forget it, I don't know how to drink, just drink this."

Ning Zuo shrugged and without any further persuasion, he opened a bottle and filled himself a glass.

"Didn't I tell you this morning? If you want to come, just contact me. Why did you come here yourself?
If I don’t come today, I’m afraid you, Yan Xiangu, will be thrown out directly~"

Yan Yue looked a little helpless.

"It was a temporary decision. I thought I wouldn't bother you. Who knows?"

When Ning Zuo heard this, he immediately asked with interest.

"Oh? Impromptu decision! Which auction do you have your eye on?"

Yan Yue thought for a moment, then looked at Ning Zuo seriously and said.

"Um~ Speaking of which, can you lend me some money~"

Ning Zuo was even more surprised. He patted his chest and said proudly.

"Hey! Of course it's no problem if you've already spoken, tell me! What is it that can catch your eyes, Yan Xiangu!" Yan Yue no longer paid attention to the lame name because she wanted to ask for help. He took out the auction brochure, pointed at the cicada chirping on it and said in midsummer.

"That's it! Well, okay, I admit, this thing is a bit expensive~"

Ning Zuo looked at the auction book and then at Yan Yue, his eyes slightly strange.

Yan Yue felt uncomfortable looking at him and said slightly dissatisfied.

"Hey! If you don't want to borrow it, don't borrow it. What are you looking at?"

Ning Zuo touched his chin and waved his hand.

"No, no, no, I'm just thinking, I've never seen you wearing any jewelry before, why are you suddenly interested in this kind of thing?"

Yan Yue crossed her chest with her hands.

"This thing is not meant to be carried around. It's very complicated, but it's very important to me anyway!"

Seeing her serious tone, Ning Zuo also put away his playful expression.

"Yeah! Okay, don't worry, it's just a small piece of amber. I, Ning Zuo, can still afford it."

While the two were talking, the auction outside had already begun.

Listening to the auctioneer's impassioned speech, the successful people below suddenly became red-faced and excited, and each one of them felt that they had the potential to be a billionaire.

I have to say that this auctioneer is really very professional. He could have predicted before the auction started that today's auction would be more than one percentage point higher than the normal price.

Soon, the lights outside dimmed first, and then followed by a spotlight, the first lot was pushed up.

"Everyone, please take a look. This item has an extraordinary origin. This is a bottle of famous wine from the previous world. Everyone, the starting price of this bottle of fine wine is! 50 yuan!"

After the auctioneer's lavish introduction, even Yan Yue, who didn't know how to drink, wanted to get involved, not to mention the group of successful people below. The whole group was excited!
In the end, the bottle of wine was auctioned off for 330 million.

To be honest, this was Yan Yue's first time on such an occasion. In her eyes, buying a bottle of wine for more than 300 million yuan could write a science fiction novel~
Looking at the regretful losers, Yan Yue couldn't help but sigh, are there really so many wealthy people in the world?
Ning Zuo looked at her expression with amusement and explained.

"Don't underestimate this bottle of wine. In the eyes of some people, its value is much more than that!"

Yan Yue was a little curious.

"Aside from drinking, does a bottle of wine have any other value?"

Ning Zuo shrugged, swung the wine glass in his hand and said.

"Of course, wine can be used to collect and expand contacts. It's not surprising that things like tobacco, wine, and tea are expensive, because no one knows what value this thing represents!"

This sentence was very meaningful, and Yan Yue couldn't understand it for a while. She was more worried about the thing she had her eyes on.

A bottle of wine with a starting price of only 50 yuan ended up more than six times the price. The final transaction price of the summer cicadas must not be in the tens of millions~
If that's the case, I'm afraid I won't be able to pay back the blood even if I sell it~
The auction was in full swing and soon entered the intermission, and the first lot in the intermission was none other than the string of cicadas chirping in midsummer!

"Everyone, please look! This amber has extraordinary significance! Just like its name, in its body, a midsummer from thousands of years ago is sealed!
It brings this summer across time and space to the present, just like beautiful love, so romantic and intoxicating.

I believe that any woman will be easily disarmed if such a thing is placed in front of her. It is more durable and more romantic than diamonds!
What is sealed inside is not only Midsummer, but also a symbol of your everlasting sincerity!
The starting price for this piece of cicada singing in the middle of summer! 150 million yuan!Each price increase shall not be less than 5 yuan! "

As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, the bidding below began to ring out one after another, and within a moment it had risen to 300 million.

Yan Yue looked at the glorious auctioneer fiercely, and in her heart she could only greet all the eighteen generations of this guy's ancestors. Things seemed to be developing into the worst situation she imagined.
