Chapter 152: Rich and Poor (Part 5)
"Ladies and gentlemen, good evening. Welcome to our Treasure Pavilion, tonight is our monthly auction event, I hope everyone can bid on something they like." The host was rambling on with the usual opening remarks, while Zhao Tiezhu couldn't help but gaze excitedly at the beautiful woman, her golden long dress was a stunning evening gown that only covered half of her chest, revealing a large portion of her white skin, which sparkled under the light.
"This little girl is not bad." Zhao Tiezhu nodded his head.
"One night, 20,000, if you want it, I can get on your bed tonight." Su Ge looked at the host with disdain. Su Yan Ni listened to this and quickly walked to Zhao Tiezhu's side, looking at him with contempt, implying that if he dared to agree, she would thoroughly despise him.
"Isn't that just high-end chicken? I'm the kind of person who dislikes being called 'chicken' the most, it's so dirty." Zhao Tiezhu said with a pretentious air of nonchalance, but the beauty's cleavage kept swaying in front of people's eyes, making those who saw it feel their blood rush up.
"What's so good about it? Look at her chest, the lines are obviously filled with something, how can there be such a perfect bust? I'm telling you, many people like to get silicone injections these days. Remember that foreign breast goddess who was bitten by a snake on her chest? The snake died soon after, what a dangerous thing! Natural is still the best." Su Yanni said from the side, then unconsciously puffed out her own chest, as if saying "this is what natural looks like". Zhao Tiezhu directly ignored her and stared at Lucy instead, making Lucy feel embarrassed, asking "Tiezhu ge, what are you looking at?"
"Really? Are you sure you're completely natural?" Zhao Tiezhu asked solemnly.
"Of course!" Lucy's face turned a little red as she argued, "I've been like this since I was young, I was bigger than adults in high school! Absolutely no padding, don't believe me, touch and see?" Lucy suddenly revealed a **seductive smile, which made Zhao Tiezhu's heart skip a beat. This little demoness is going to seduce people, her power is almost on par with Su Yanni's.
"It's still useless." Zhao Tiezhu dryly laughed, while Su Yanni pulled Lucy over and said, "You silly child, whether or not others believe it is their business, you don't have to suffer a loss."
The host's nonsense has almost finished, and next is the so-called auction. The auction in this Zhaobao Pavilion is indeed different from others. The first item for sale is actually a bottle of wine!!
"This is a bottle of wine from the Titanic, salvaged in a dive and brought ashore. Due to the tragic fate of the Titanic, this bottle of wine has also been dubbed 'The Last Kiss'. Starting price: 100,000. Each bid increase: 5,000."
"I'm going to wipe it out, a bottle of wine starts at 100,000! Is anyone buying?" Zhao Tiezhu asked with a very earthy tone.
"Of course, I've seen a bottle of wine sell for over 10 million in the capital. Calm down, after all, it's someone who sits in suite number one, has some level, right?" Su Ge looked at Zhao Tiezhu and pressed a green button next to him, then spoke into a microphone in front of him, "1.5 million."
"Friends in room 1 bid 150,000. Is there anyone else who wants to increase the price? 150,000 once, 150,000 twice."
At this time:
"180,000."
A faint voice came over.
"Box 5 is priced at 1.8 million, Box 5 is quoted at 1.8 million, will there be any further price increase?"
"200,000." Sugura said directly.
This time, the No. 5 private room did not increase the price again. This auction is not a war, there's no need to fight for everything. It's just one bottle of wine, and its true value is around 1.7 million. Selling it for 2 million is already considered high.
"Friends in room 1 spent 2 million yuan on this bottle of 'End of the World Kiss', congratulations to everyone."
A round of applause erupted from the audience below. The person who could sit in box seat No. 1 was naturally someone with status, and this applause was mostly to give face to the person in box seat No. 1.
Next is a wedding dress, which is said to be the one worn by Russian Empress Yekaterina when she got married. The things being auctioned are truly strange and unusual, even including a wedding dress. Zhao Tiezhu didn't dare to show any interest in this thing, and neither of the two girls were old enough to get married yet, so they just took a look without much enthusiasm.
Not long after, the door of room 1 was knocked on, and with Sugura's consent, a waiter brought in that bottle of Doomsday Kiss that Sugura had taken.
Su directly took out a platinum card and paid for it.
"Come, try this so-called doomsday kiss." Sugura picked up a bottle opener and opened the wine, pouring each of Zhao Tiezhu and the others a cup. Zhao Tiezhu still downed it in one gulp, then savored the aftertaste before saying, "It's not much different from ordinary grape wine, just that kind of thing, and it's actually 2 million yuan, really damn luxurious."
"This is considered luxury, the wealthy people in the first-tier cities of the country, which banquet can't spend millions, ask them to donate some money, either they don't have this money or that money, their one meal can build a hope primary school." Sugala said.
"I didn't think you still had a bit of rebellious spirit." Zhao Tiezhu said with a smile.
"This is the reality of society these days. The poor are getting poorer because they have too few resources, while the rich are getting richer because they have enough time and energy to accumulate more wealth. Some people say that making 10 million from 100,000 is difficult, but making 1 billion from 10 million is relatively easy. That's just how it works, no matter which dynasty - there's always a clear class divide."
Zhao Tiezhu smiled and didn't say anything. Since he was poor since childhood, he wasn't very convinced by Su Ge's words. Although poor people use fewer resources, they have more drive and resilience than the rich. People born with money are rare; countless first-generation rich people were once poor too. So Zhao Tiezhu still firmly believed that as long as one worked hard, they could change some things, no matter how small.
No need to say more, a bottle of wine, 200,000 yuan, was drunk by several people in half an hour. It seemed that because of the so-called "End of the World Kiss" name, Su Yanni and Lucy drank a bit more, with a faint blush on their faces.
"Are you guys okay? Don't make me carry both of you back by myself later!"
"It's just a few cups of red wine, what's the big deal?" Su Yanni said, "Let's continue with the auction."
The auction continued, and several items had already been sold. At this moment, the stage lights suddenly dimmed, and a beam of light shone directly onto a high platform on the stage.
"Next, I'd like to introduce you all to the legendary love gemstone, Cupid's Arrow."
