Chapter 239 Overwhelming Financial Power
Chapter 239 Overwhelming Financial Power
Qin Yuhao turned to Ning Xiuyang and asked, "Brother, do you agree with my suggestion?"
Ning Xiuyang glanced at Chen Lin, and seeing Chen Lin's frantic gestures, he couldn't help but nod with amusement, saying, "Since Young Master Qin has stepped forward, we will naturally give him face."
"That's good."
Qin Yuhao nodded, his opinion of him growing even higher. He was not reckless, knew when to advance and retreat, and was much better than a spoiled brat like Sun Zhenfei.
Upon hearing the bet, Sun Zhenfei immediately sneered and stared at Ning Xiuyang, saying, "I have to add one more thing: if he loses, he has to kneel down and call me 'Dad' three times in public, and give me his two women. Of course, if I lose, I'll also kneel down and call him 'Dad' three times."
Sun Zhenfei, brimming with confidence, glared at Ning Xiuyang and said, "Kid, do you dare?"
Qin Yuhao frowned, about to speak.
Ning Xiuyang glanced at him and said calmly, "Whoever chickens out is a coward!"
"Ha, you've got guts! I hope you'll still be this stubborn later." Sun Zhenfei sneered and walked away.
"Everyone, please disperse. The auction is about to begin."
Qin Yuhao clapped his hands, then gave his bodyguards a wink, signaling them to keep a close eye on the situation at the venue. He then exchanged a nod with Chen Lin and calmly left.
"Yoko, you're really awesome!"
After Qin Yuhao left, Chen Lin patted Ning Xiuyang on the shoulder helplessly.
Ning Xiuyang smiled at Chen Lin and said, "You know me, I'm not that kind of spineless person."
Chen Lin rolled his eyes in exasperation and said, "Let's go, sit in the front."
Ning Xiuyang nodded, put his arm around Shen Yourong's waist, and led Shen Youyou straight to the front row seats in the venue.
Chen Lin looked at Ning Xiuyang's retreating figure, feeling both admiration and a headache.

This guy is a master at causing trouble.
He sighed and quickly followed.
"Yangzi, you're being too impulsive." After sitting down, Chen Lin couldn't help but lower his voice and say, "Sun Zhenfei's father is the chairman of Jianghai Shipbuilding, and his mother has some connections in the municipal government. This man is vindictive. You've offended him like this. Even if Young Master Qin vouches for you today, you'll still have a lot of trouble in Zhonghai in the future."
"Trouble?" Ning Xiuyang smiled nonchalantly. "I'm the kind of person who's least afraid of trouble."
He had nothing to rely on, but he was barefoot.
For this group of people who wear shoes, those who have no support but possess resources are the ones who cause them the most trouble.
On the other side, Sun Zhenfei, comforted by his friends, temporarily suppressed his anger.
"Brother Fei, don't be angry. It's not worth getting worked up over that little punk," Zhou Mingfeng fanned the flames from the side. "He's all talk and no action. Once the auction starts, let's see what he has to offer you!"
"That's right!" A ruthless glint flashed in Sun Zhenfei's eyes as he said viciously, "Today I'll show him what it means to have overwhelming financial power!"
"Whatever he sets his sights on, I'll snatch it! I'll make sure he doesn't get a single thing, and I'll make him get out of here like a dog in front of everyone!"
Soon, the auction officially began.
The host took the stage and gave a brief introduction before the first item for auction was presented.
It is a landscape painting by a modern or contemporary artist, with a starting bid of 300,000.
Ning Xiuyang wasn't interested in such a small item worth a few hundred thousand. His main purpose in coming today was to spend the thirty million in discount money.
He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes to rest, seemingly oblivious to the bidding on stage.
Shen Yourong and her daughter Shen Youyou were attending such an event for the first time, and everything seemed new and exciting to them. They whispered to each other in private.
"Mom, look at that vase, it's so pretty!"
"Yes, it looks pretty good."
The next few items were all small trinkets such as calligraphy, paintings, and jade artifacts, and the prices were all under one million.
Sun Zhenfei held back his anger, waiting for Ning Xiuyang to make his move.
Finally, the fifth item, a limited edition Vacheron Constantin watch, caught Ning Xiuyang's attention.
This watch has a unique design and complex craftsmanship, making it a perfect gift.
Chen Lin's eyes lit up.
This guy likes these kinds of things, so this is kind of repaying a favor.
Starting bid: 1.2 million.
"One million three hundred thousand." Ning Xiuyang quickly raised his bidding paddle before Chen Lin could raise his.
Chen Lin was taken aback. Seeing him bid, he hesitated for a moment, then put down his bidding paddle and decided to reluctantly give up his prize.
He came here tonight specifically for this limited edition Vacheron Constantin.
coming!
Sun Zhenfei's spirits lifted, and he immediately raised his sign: "One million five hundred thousand!"
Ning Xiuyang didn't even glance at him, and raised his paddle again: "Two million."
"Two million one hundred thousand!" Sun Zhenfei pressed on relentlessly.
"Three million." Ning Xiuyang's tone remained calm, as if he were stating numbers rather than money.
hiss……
A collective gasp rippled through the crowd.
Although this watch is a limited edition, its market price is only around 2.5 million. Selling it for 3 million is already a significant premium.
"Who is this guy, so aggressive?"
"This watch sold for three million; they've got money to burn."
"You don't know anything! For enthusiasts, this watch is priceless. Keep it for a few more years, and you might not even be able to buy it for three or five million!"
"Is this outrageous?"
"No wonder this guy dared to go against Young Master Sun; he clearly comes from a very wealthy family!"
"..."
Sun Zhenfei's expression was rather unpleasant.
He didn't expect Ning Xiuyang to raise the price so drastically, completely deviating from the expected pattern.
"Brother Fei, don't argue with him, this watch isn't worth the price," Zhou Mingfeng advised from the side.
Sun Zhenfei gritted his teeth and finally put down the license plate.
He couldn't be the one to suffer the consequences just out of spite.
"Three million once, three million twice, three million three times!"
"make a deal!"
The host made the final decision.
Ning Xiuyang put down the number plate expressionlessly.
For the next few items, as soon as Ning Xiuyang raised his paddle, Sun Zhenfei would inevitably follow suit.
But each time, Ning Xiuyang would charge prices far exceeding the market rate, forcing Sun Zhenfei to give up.
Before long, Ning Xiuyang had spent over seven million yuan, bidding on a watch, a pair of jade bracelets, and an antique ornament.
As for Sun Zhenfei, besides being filled with anger, he gained nothing.
Those around him also saw through the situation, and their gazes toward Sun Zhenfei were filled with a mixture of pity and mockery.
This isn't a display of wealth; it's clearly a one-sided farce!
Sun Zhenfei's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
He felt like a clown, being manipulated by Ning Xiuyang.
"Brother Fei, don't get worked up, he's deliberately trying to provoke you!" Zhou Mingfeng was sweating profusely.
"I know!" Sun Zhenfei roared. "Damn it, just how much money does this kid have?"
Just then, the host announced in an exciting tone, "Distinguished guests, next up is our grand finale auction item for tonight!"
"Ming Dynasty, Chenghua period, Doucai Chicken Cup!"
As the red cloth was lifted, a small, exquisite, and brightly colored porcelain cup came into view.
