Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 977: Chapter 976 Dog Men and Women

Upon hearing Lin Dong’s bid, both Huang Jie and Yang Meng’s faces changed.

Huang Jie gritted his teeth and said, ”This kid, can he really come up with so much money? He must be recklessly shouting out bids!”

Yang Meng’s complexion changed drastically because Lin Dong actually was willing to win the Dragon and Phoenix gold hairpin for 8.88 million.

Just now, she had asked Huang Jie to bid, but Huang Jie had refused and only gifted her a diamond ring worth 880,000.

If it weren’t for Lin Dong’s intervention, she would have been quite satisfied.

After all, that was also a thing worth 880,000, which Huang Jie casually gifted to her, showing his generosity.

But now Lin Dong actually bid 8.88 million for the Dragon and Phoenix gold hairpin, completely overshadowing him by comparison.

”He certainly doesn’t have the money, he can’t pay the bill!” Huang Jie said venomously, ”Once he can’t pay up later, I’ll use the excuse that he’s disrupting the auction’s order to break his legs!”

”Then, I’ll make him kneel before me.”

But the next scene disappointed him.

Lin Dong finally won the Dragon and Phoenix gold hairpin with a bid of 11 million after incrementally raising the price three times.

And he paid on the spot!

He took out a card, swiped it, and the transaction was successful.

Seeing this, Huang Jie’s face turned iron blue to the extreme.

”I underestimated him, he could actually take out more than 10 million!”

As for Yang Meng, watching Lin Dong from a distance win the Dragon and Phoenix gold hairpin and give it to Qiao Bing...

...and then carefully inserting it into her hair bun, she suddenly found the diamond ring worth 880,000 in her hand to be less appealing.

Not only was it less appealing, but she also felt like throwing it away.

Compared to what the other had, it was like a worthless rock.

Thinking of how she was flaunting the diamond ring just a moment ago, she felt an ironic sting.

Gazing at the Dragon and Phoenix gold hairpin on Qiao Bing’s head, she was gnashing her teeth with jealousy.

”Jie, Lin Dong just gave Qiao Bing a Dragon and Phoenix gold hairpin worth over 10 million; you have to gift me something even better later,” she said.

”Otherwise, I’ll be completely overshadowed by Qiao Bing!”

Huang Jie’s face was iron blue.

He glanced at Yang Meng and thought to himself, ”You think you deserve a gift worth more than 10 million?”

In fact, he looked down on Yang Meng.

If it weren’t for wanting to use her to get to Qiao Bing, he would have slapped her and told her to roll right now.

But in order to obtain Qiao Bing...

He held back.

He simply said quietly, ”It’s certainly no problem to give you a gift worth more than 10 million, but I have a condition.”

”What’s the condition?” Yang Meng asked, ”As long as you gift it to me, whatever you want, I’ll agree.”

”You misunderstand, I’m not thinking of how to treat you. I’m thinking of that Qiao Bing... To tell you the truth, from the first glance I want to possess her!”

”As long as you help me get her, not just a 10 million gift, even giving you a luxury villa worth a billion is not an issue.”

”This...” Yang Meng inwardly cursed, thinking how fickle Huang Jie was. Not satisfied with what’s in his mouth and longing for what’s in the bowl.

However, she then thought, if she let Huang Jie get Qiao Bing, it would also be a form of revenge against Qiao Bing and Lin Dong.

Imagining the scene of Qiao Bing being humiliated by Huang Jie, imagining Lin Dong being cuckolded by Huang Jie, she suddenly felt a thrill.

A twisted smile appeared on her face, and she actually agreed.

”Alright, I agree with you.”

After she uttered the words of agreement, Huang Jie laughingly said, ”You’re a smart woman.”

Over there, Lin Dong had already successfully bid for the Dragon and Phoenix gold hairpin; he held the gold hairpin and inserted it into Qiao Bing’s hair bun.

”Lin Dong, a gold hairpin for over 10 million, isn’t that a bit too much of a loss?” Although Qiao Bing was pleased within, she felt that such a price for a single gold hairpin was really too high.

Lin Dong laughingly said, ”Not expensive, not at all.”

”This is a fine item. When we get home tonight, I’ll engrave some talismans on it, and it can be used as a protective charm!”

This gold hairpin had absorbed Dragon Qi and also been consecrated by accomplished monks. If some life-saving talismans were engraved on it, it would have even better effects than the best amulets made from jade.

Wearing it, it could avert three great disasters!

Don’t mention ten million or so, even if it’s over a billion, or ten billion to buy it, it’s not expensive.

Of course, Lin Dong has not yet given her an explanation about these matters.

Meanwhile, the auction continued.

The jewelry auction segment had officially ended.

Next up was the rough jadeite auction segment.

These rough stones had been sent from Myanmar and were of excellent quality, and the Huang Family was merely providing a platform; the stones were not their property.

They had to place bids if they wanted to acquire any.

It could be said that ninety-five percent of those present had come specifically for the rough stone auction.

This included Tang Jun, Tang Han, and Gu Lingfei, who had also come for the rough stones.

For them, this method of auctioning rough stones was both fun and thrilling.

Moreover, they had come with a task this time!

They had to buy a rough stone that could be cut to reveal jade.

When the first rough stone was presented, a professional introduced it:

”This rough stone, weighing fifteen pounds, is of the best quality grade. Look at its skin, it is dark brown, and if you touch it, it’s very smooth. This indicates that the stone has a fine skin. The stones on the surface have a high probability of yielding top-grade jade.”

”Look at the green moss creeping on the left side, this moss is also called the ’Introduction of Jadeite.’ Generally, if there is green moss, there is definitely jade inside. Using the jade from inside to make bracelets, necklaces, you’re guaranteed to make a killing...”

This person kept introducing the rough stone non-stop.

Of course, he was only highlighting the positive aspects.

He claimed there was jade inside, and from a professional standpoint, that was indeed true.

But it was uncertain how much jade there was or what the quality was like.

That’s where the gamble came in.

The so-called stone gambling, that was the principle.

If there was a lot of jade inside with top-notch quality, then after one cut, you could get rich overnight.

Of course, if there was little jade and the quality was poor, that one cut could mean going home to wear hemp clothes.

Finally, the starting bid for this top-grade raw stone began at 13 million!

Its starting price was even higher than the Dragon and Phoenix gold hairpin that Lin Dong had just bought!

And as this starting bid was announced, Tang Jun loudly called out, ”I bid 14 million!”

Hearing Tang Jun’s offer, Huang Jie sneered, ”15 million!”

Seeing Lin Dong with Tang Jun, Tang Han, and Gu Lingfei as friends, he naturally wanted to compete.

Moreover, in Huang Jie’s opinion, this stone was indeed a piece of top-grade rough stone; he had to win it.

In the area of evaluating stones, he was confident that no one present understood it better than he did, the owner of a jewelry store.

He then looked towards Lin Dong, challenging him, ”In the field I excel at, how can you compete with me?”

Lin Dong glanced at him and did not respond.

At that moment, below the stage, aside from Tang Jun and Huang Jie, other people also had their eyes on this rough stone.

Everyone started bidding.

”I bid 16 million!”

”17 million.”

”20 million!”

”23 million!”

”...”

”50 million!”

After over twenty rounds of bidding, the stone that had initially been priced at 13 million was driven up to 50 million.

And the price of 50 million was called by Huang Jie.

Tang Jun hesitated, debating whether to continue bidding.

However, just then, Lin Dong shook his head at the direction where he was.

”Don’t bid any more. Not to mention 50 million, even 5 million for this rough stone would be a fool’s errand!”
