He reached out his hand, preparing to grab Zhou Hui by the collar.
But when he stretched out his hand, he suddenly remembered that Zhou Hui had grabbed his hand and effortlessly put it down.
”Tell me, how much do you want? ”Give me a count, I don't believe that you can't get along with money.”
”Wait, Young Master Hong, what you're saying is not too fair. Are there so many of us? You have to give us a chance to buy wine too. ”
Before Zhou Hui could reply, he saw a pot-bellied man walk over.
He kept staring at Zhou Hui's bag. His purpose for coming here was obvious, and he was definitely here for this bottle of wine.
At this moment, the people behind them heard these two's words and rushed forward, placing Zhou Hui in the middle and shouting that they wanted to buy his wine.
Mia shrugged her shoulders as she saw this.
”It's over. It seems that I can't rely on you this time. Buy your wine. None of them are richer than me.”
Originally, this was a Red City manor's auction, but the group of people that had come to attend had no interest in the wine from Red City Manor. Instead, they all gathered around Zhou Hui.
Some people even started arguing over a spot in front of them.
The old manor lord stood at the back, watching the ruckus. Who knew what he was thinking?
He spoke suddenly.
”Everyone, you are all civilized people, don't throw away your identity just to buy this bottle of wine, how about we be fair?”
At his words, the group quieted down and looked at him with rapt attention.
”Old Manor Lord, this is your place and we respect you. Tell me, what fair method is this?”
”Since it's an auction today and this little brother is here to sell wine, why don't we auction this wine together?” If the price is high enough, then it must be fair! ”
When everyone heard this, they immediately felt that this idea wasn't bad.
This way, anyone could buy this bottle of wine, depending on who paid more.
When Mia heard this, she immediately became even more depressed. If that's the case, wouldn't she have even less of a chance?
However, this was their basin, so he couldn't say anything.
Zhou Hui didn't object.
Soon enough, after the venue was set up, the old manor lord took a spot where the best wine should have been and carefully placed the bottle of 1787's Lafite onto the table. He even cast a beam of light on it, giving it a dignified and noble appearance.
Although it was a long time ago and its body was a little mottled, it still did not affect the wine's dominance. It was as if the wine was born to be the king of the wine, and no matter how gorgeous the other wines were, they would still be used as a foil to the wine.
They all pushed each other to the sides of the stage.
Zhou Hui and Mia were also sitting in the first row.
Although Uncle Zhou really liked this bottle of wine and wanted it for himself, he knew his own capabilities. The people sitting under the fish really didn't have the confidence to admire him.
He was a learned scholar, but not a rich man.
So he asked to be a witness.
Before he had even agreed on the starting price, Young Master Hong shouted loudly.
”I bid 5 million!”
When he said this, the people below all started laughing?
