My Waste Husband novel Chapter 1654

Henry was alone at a buffet table in a banquet hall, eating a mouthful of food.

The people around him cast a strange look at Henry.

Henry completely ignored these gazes. He grabbed the food on the dining table while looking at the time on his mobile phone. There were 15 minutes left until the auction began.

Henry put his hand on the last piece of cake in front of him.

Just as Henry was about to grab the cake, the plate of the cake was overturned by someone.

Henry looked back and saw a young man standing on the side as he turned the plate. It was completely his unconscious action. The young man was holding the mobile phone, staring at the screen of the mobile phone and cursing something.

As if he noticed that someone was looking at him, the young man raised his head, glanced at Henry, and shouted, "What the hell are you looking at?"

Henry lowered his head and did not pay much attention to him.

The young man's eyes continued to stare at the phone screen in front of him.

As time went by, it was getting closer and closer to the auction.

The guests spontaneously sat on the guest seats in front of the auction stage and waited for the start of the auction.

Under the host's speech, the auction began.

An item after an item was auctioned off at a high price. The people who come here didn't care about the real value of the items. All they wanted was to be known as helping a charity.

As time went by, the last item was presented on the stage by two beautiful ladies. This was a stone book. It was said that the most real decaying process of a dynasty in Van Xia was recorded here. However, the characters were particularly ancient and had not been translated yet. Due to the stone quality, it could be sealed up for a longer time than the paper-level book. This book had been classified as a national treasure long ago. Everyone was very clear that the person who bought this stone book would donate it to the museum in exchange for reputation. If other things were donated, they would not be this useful.

It could be said that the most important part of this auction was the last stone book to be auctioned.

"Everyone, the introduction of this history book is clearly written on the handbook in front of each table. The starting price is one yuan!"

After the host shouted out the price, the auction price of this stone book had already reached five million. In fact, this price was just an appetizer. Even the final buyer didn't want the price to be so low. When the price of this stone book was higher, the reputation they gained would be greater.

When people reached a certain position, money no longer had much meaning to them. What they wanted more was something else.

"10 million!"

"20 million!"

"50 million!"

"100 million!"

After reaching this price, everyone knew that it was time that the real secret battle had begun.

"Gentlemen, it's reasonable for this book to be kept in our Van Xia. I offer a hundred and twenty million yuan to donate this book to the museum for free!" A middle- aged woman stood up and said.

"President Van, you're really generous. You would donate 120 million yuan. You're our business model!" Someone immediately flattered her.

"Haha, in fact, I also want to donate for free. I am afraid that the treasures of our countries could fall into the hands of outsiders. However, all the deposits of this auction will be donated to the mountains. For the mountains, 120 million is a little. I offer 150 million!" Someone stood up and competed for it with a very beautiful tone.

"Since we're working for our country, I'd like to take part in it. 180 million yuan." Someone else said.

"200 million, also a free donation to the museum, on-site payment!"

One and another person shouted. At this time, if anyone did not offer as a donation, they would be embarrassed to bid.

The bidding this time was particularly fierce, but the price had increased at a much slower rate.

Just as everyone stopped moving forward, a middle-aged man got up and said, "300 million! Don't fight with me anymore. Give me a chance to serve my country."
