649: The Auction Begins

The Auction Begins

"You want to teach Harold a lesson?"

Madison was stunned when she heard this.

Then, she looked at Connor and said, " If you really want to teach Harold a lesson, then there's nothing I can do. After all, even my grandfather is so afraid of you. I definitely won't dare to stop you."

"But I don't think Harold meant to offend you. If something really happened to him, I would feel bad…"

"Don't worry, I won't argue with him since he's your cousin!"

Connor turned to look at Madison and said calmly.

"Really?"

Madison asked Connor happily.

"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you about such things?"

Connor replied helplessly.

After Madison heard Connor's words, the expression on her face clearly became much happier.

She smiled at Connor and asked, "By the way, Connor, what's your relationship with that girl?"

"Which girl?"

Connor was stunned for a moment and asked with a puzzled expression.

"It's already like this. Why are you still pretending to be stupid? Don't you know which girl I'm talking about? Don't you know why Harold wants to deal with you?"

Madison pouted and said to Connor.

"You mean Sabrina?"

Connor was stunned for a moment and asked softly.

"Yes, that tall and beautiful woman. Is she your girlfriend?"

Madison asked Connor softly.

"No…"

Connor thought for a moment and shook his head lightly.

"Why is Harold looking for trouble with you?"

Madison asked nosily.

"I haven't known Sabrina for long. We're just ordinary friends. As for why Harold is looking for trouble with me, I'm not sure either. Perhaps Harold has misunderstood our relationship…"

Connor said lightly.

When Madison heard this sentence, she couldn't help but smile faintly. Then, she said softly, "Even if the two of you are not together now, you must be interested in Sabrina…"

"Boring…"

Connor shook his head without thinking.

"Tsk, who are you lying to!"

Madison replied with a pout.

Connor didn't intend to continue chatting with Madison, so he took out his phone and opened Facebook.

Ten minutes later, the auction officially began.

A sexy beauty in a red short skirt walked onto the stage in high heels.

This beauty was very beautiful and had a very sexy figure.

When she appeared on the stage, she instantly attracted the attention of countless men.

"Good evening, distinguished guests. I'm the host of today's auction, Shiya. I'm very happy to welcome everyone to participate in the auction of our Dingsheng Hotel..."

The beautiful host held the microphone and said a few simple greetings with the guests below the stage. Then, she began to introduce the rules of this auction.

".. Alright, let's not waste any more time. Next, let's bring in the first item for today's auction: a blue and white porcelain vase from the Age of Clay!"

"This vase is blue and white porcelain from the Age of Clay. Due to the short history of this period, there are very few blue and white porcelain items from that time. The ones that were preserved until now are even rarer. Therefore, the starting price is five million…"

The host placed the first item on a small stage specially used for exhibition. After a simple display, she smiled and shouted at the guests below the stage.

Connor wasn't very interested in these porcelain, so he didn't pay attention to the stage at all. He was still chatting with Yelena on his phone.

Recently, Yelena had been filming in Horizon, so she was very busy and rarely had time to chat with Connor.

"Stop playing around. The auction has begun…"

Madison reached out and patted Connor as she spoke softly to him.

"What does the auction have to do with me? Besides, I don't have the money to buy anything…" Connor replied with a pout and then continued to play with his phone.

"Stop pretending with me. Don't I know your situation? You're the richest person in Davenport, and you're actually telling me that you don't have money. If you don't have money, then there won't be any rich people in Davenport…" Madison said lightly.

"It's true that I'm rich, but that doesn't mean that I'm a fool. A broken porcelain actually costs five million dollars? I think these people are crazy for money…"

After Connor said this, he looked up at Madison and asked with a puzzled expression, "That's not right. You were the one who called me here today. You didn't collude with the people at the auction because you knew I was rich, did you?"

"Do you think I'm swindling money from you?"

After Madison heard Connor's words, the expression on her face seemed a little helpless. "Do you think I'll lack your money?" she asked, exasperated. "I only called you over to complete the mission my grandfather gave me. Don't think so much…"

"Then why do you keep reminding me that the auction has started? I'm only here to help you complete your mission. What does it have to do with you whether I buy anything or not?" Connor said lightly.

"Do you know how many people want to participate in this auction but are not qualified to enter? You really don't know what's good for you. Whether you buy anything or not has nothing to do with me anyway!" Madison pouted and scolded Connor helplessly.

After Connor heard Madison's words, he smiled helplessly and continued to chat with Yelena.

"Ten million!"

At this moment, Madison suddenly shouted.

After Connor heard Madison's words, he couldn't help but raise his head to look at her. Then, he asked Madison with a puzzled expression, "Ma'am, are you crazy? How could you pay so much for such a broken vase? Is there something wrong with your brain?"

"What do you know? This vase is a blue and white porcelain vase from the Age of Clay. I sold the same one at Sotheby's auction house before. At that time, the transaction price was 18 million. If I can buy it for 10 million, I can make 8 million when I resell it. Do you understand?" Madison explained softly.

"This broken vase is actually that valuable?"

Connor was instantly speechless.

Madison looked at Connor and really didn't know what to say. "Connor, this is an antique. Do you understand?"1

"You seem to know a lot about them?"

Connor asked Madison curiously.

"I'm okay with them. When I was young, my grandfather and I often participated in various auctions, so I have a certain understanding of antiques. Moreover, let me tell you that today's auction will not only have antiques, but also many magical treasures. Those treasures are really priceless!"

"Magical treasures?"

Connor couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. Then, he asked curiously, "What kind of treasures?"
