Xia Yu got his license plate - A22, a very random number, and then led his parents to find a corner and sit down.

The auction in reality is like this, unlike there is a VIP box or something, which collection was auctioned by whom, everyone can see it, if you don't want to reveal your identity, you can find an agent to help you auction on your behalf, just like yesterday he asked Feng Manxue to help participate in the famous wine sale.

There are quite a few, including Henri Jaibarantu '93, Emmanuel Rugebarantu '97 from his nephew's winery, and Château Eagle '04.

These are still cheap ration wines, which are only used to fill the cellar, and the most expensive is a case of 1988 Romanée Conti, 12 bottles sold for 350,000 US dollars.

Feng Manxue told Xia Yu that her heart was pounding when she shouted out the price, and she was so nervous that she was dying.

Can you not be nervous, one bottle is nearly 30,000 dollars, and it takes her more than half a year to earn so much from two jobs.

In fact, more people can't earn a bottle of 996 a year, the 28th law of society is cruel, and the extravagant life of the rich is even more enviable.

In the autumn auction of the magic capital in September, Christie's conducted a special topic of "Chishui Fine Wine - Qiangui Moutai", and I heard that it sold a total of more than 25 million.

One of the most expensive lots was a box of 1980 Feitian Moutai, which sold for 660,000 yuan for 12 bottles.

Doesn't seem too high?

The average is less than 10,000 US dollars a bottle, which is more than three times the estimate.

Xia Yu doesn't like to drink Moutai, so he doesn't know much about the market, but the Moutai stocks he bought must rise a wave, and the money he earns is good for buying other wines.

If you don't smoke, you can earn money for alcohol, and it's definitely not enough to buy a cup and saucer.

As the start of the auction approached, there were more and more people on the scene, as well as many Western faces.

Domestic treasures have been robbed by the West a lot in the past, but now it is different from the past, you can want to, see the real chapter in the auction, who has more money is the uncle.

"Dad, you can also take a look at this booklet, if you have anything you like, just say it, and I'll take a picture together." ”

Xia Yu said and handed the booklet in his hand to Lao Xia.

Lin Shuqin doesn't like antiques, Lao Xia is different, he used to like to nibble on pig's trotters while watching programs such as "Treasure Appraisal", "World Collection", and "National Treasure".

It is certain to have an understanding, but unfortunately there are no antiques at home except for two Yuan Datou, so it is an addiction.

This time, Xia Yu planned to enrich his family's collection, and if there is a suitable one, he can take pictures for Lao Xia to take back to play and appreciate, and also save some money.

"It's all so expensive, the cheapest ones are hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars!"

"It's expensive to buy, if it's not expensive, we don't buy it, and hundreds of thousands are nothing, millions are all gadgets that you can buy casually and don't need to think about. ”

With more than a billion in his pocket, he is so arrogant when he speaks.

"Then you can buy the inkstone, I think this inkstone is good. ”

Lao Xia pointed to the end stone Mingyue 28 Su Taishi style inkstone on the booklet and said.

This inkstone looks good, and the dynasty is between the Song and Ming dynasties, with an estimated value of between four and sixty Hong Kong dollars.

Comrade Lao Xia still wants to save him money, but the valuation is only a valuation, and there are not a few people who like this inkstone, and he conservatively estimates that it will take one or two million to win.

Buy it, how can you say that we are also a scholarly door, and it is really not good to support the scene without an inkstone.

Xia Yu's grandfather went to private school back then, so Lao Xia can write calligraphy, Xia Yu can't do it, he can't write hard words, or he opened a calligraphy Buff before to make him as good as his person.

Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, the inkstone representing the book is there, and it is not bad to have another guqin, it just so happens that my mother has a piano in her name, she must like it.

Lin Shuqin: No, I don't like it.

Xia Yu took a fancy to an anonymous guqin in the Song Dynasty, which was damaged to a certain extent, but it was rebuilt by Zhu Zhiyuan, a master luthier in the Yuan Dynasty.

No matter, let's take a break to cut first and then play, his musical talent is so good, his mother must not be far behind, maybe they can form a family band in the future!

I added the guqin to the shopping cart in my heart, and the long-awaited auction of "Extraordinary: A Thousand Years of Song Dynasty Aesthetics" finally began.

The auctioneer, a middle-aged woman, came up to give a speech and then picked up a small hammer.

This is a bit different from the auction hammer that Xia Yu wanted, but the size of the hammer will not affect the size of the auction, and the first ones are indeed those cheap collections, such as an ink on paper with a Song Dynasty vertical scroll.

Lao Xia said that the handwriting is good, but there is no payment, I don't know who wrote it, so it can't be sold at a high price.

The estimate was between HK$1 million and HK$2 million, with a slightly lower starting price, and after two rounds of bidding, no one continued to bid when the price was raised to 1 million.

One million deals!

There was no unsuccessful auction, and the opening was okay.

A few more worthless gadgets were photographed, and finally it was the turn of the inkstone that Lao Xia saw, and Xia Yu decisively raised his card.

The starting price is 300,000 yuan, and 50,000 yuan is added to the card once, Xia Yu broke one million without a few examples, and the competition is really fierce, but the most important thing in the auction is the cost performance, and it will not be surprising if it exceeds the valuation several times.

Xia Yu was not only not surprised, but he also had to increase the price until no one grabbed him.

"1.8 million, 1.8 million will anyone still increase the price? Congratulations to the A22 buyer!"

The auctioneer dropped the hammer, Xia Yu also put down the brand, and the first collection was successfully purchased.

Lao Xia's forehead was a little sweaty, is this the auction?

He turned his head slightly, looked at his son beside him, and then continued to look at his wife, and the two seemed to have a heart, and their eyes met.

The two exchanged a lot of information with their eyes, but in the end they didn't speak.

The things were bought by the son, and the money was bought by the son... Why did he raise his cards again?

Seeing that Xia Yu was participating in a new auction, the two looked at the screen and saw that the guqin was displayed on it.

Looking at the stock price on the booklet, this is amazing, millions of Hong Kong dollars!

What are millions of Hong Kong dollars, Xia Yu's stupid cannon is bought at the price of cabbage, and the poor are not worthy of learning music these days.

"Bang~~"

"Let's congratulate the A22 buyer again!"

Xia Yu won this guqin for 4 million Hong Kong dollars, because it was relatively unpopular, there were not many people participating in the bidding, and no one made a move just when the estimate was reached.

Alas, who made their family a musical family in addition to a scholarly family, if he doesn't make a move, this guqin may be unsold!

Xia Yu bid first, and then took the two of them to compete, but the interest was not high.

"Mom, do you want to learn the piano?"

"Don't learn!"

Lin Shuqin knew what was going on as soon as she heard it, and refused angrily.

"Study, I'm so good at learning music, Mom, you're definitely not bad. ”

A woman has to boast, and it is right to praise her.

"Not necessarily, I'm clumsy. ”

"Cooking is different from playing the piano, cooking is mastering the heat, playing the piano is about the rhythm, and when I go back, I will help you find a teacher, even if you learn a little, it is a plus." ”

Xia Yu began to flicker.

"Then I'll try to go back?"

Lin Shuqin moved.

Seeing Xia Yu's confident appearance on the stage, she is also a little envious of being a mother.

"That's right, let's try!"

After the flicker was successful, Xia Yu turned his attention back to the auction, and it was his turn to make the azure glazed tea cup of the Northern Song Dynasty Ru kiln.

As an absolute masterpiece, the estimate of this tea cup is between 30 million and 50 million Hong Kong dollars, and the transaction price is definitely exceeded.

Spend half a billion, just to drink tea, is this transaction worth?

Xia Yu thinks it's worth it, who makes it difficult for a daughter to buy me!

As soon as filming began, the war entered the scorching heat, from 30 million to 40 million, then to 45 million, and 48 million.

"Fifty million! fifty million for the first time!"

The auctioneer shouted here, and Xia Yu finally made a move.

"Fifty-one million!"

Lin Shuqin and Lao Xia were frightened all of a sudden, they can accept spending one billion to buy a house, but they can spend more than 50 million to buy a tea cup, which is too much beyond their imagination, but the auction is not over yet.

"Fifty-three million!"

Someone seems to like this teacup more than Xia Yu.

"Fifty-five million!"

Xia Yu raised his card again to increase the price.

The other party was photographed at once, looked at Xia Yu, and hurriedly called.

It can be seen that this is an agent, and the price has exceeded his latest authorization, and it is up to the buyer behind him to decide whether to pay more.

"Fifteen million for the first time?"

The auctioneer continued to ask, but in the end he did not wait for a response.

"Let's congratulate the A22 buyer again. ”

Thunderous applause rang out, everyone was very face-saving, and there was even someone who had afternoon tea together that day and recognized Xia Yu and his parents.

Young and promising, versatile, it's not that this son will become a great thing, it's that he has become a climate.

The auction continued, and it was the turn of a Longquan pink and blue glazed paper mallet bottle from the Southern Song Dynasty, the color of which matched his Ru porcelain tea cup.

Do you want to take it down too?

Since you have an idea, take it down, put it aside when you drink tea, insert a bouquet of camellias, and feel the reincarnation of tea, which is quite meaningful.

Xia Yu joined the competition again, and the parents beside him were already a little numb, this stinky boy came to the auction to sweep, this is the fourth.

In fact, there are more than 20 collections in the whole topic, and he also likes these four, but the most popular is the next "Wood and Stone Map" on the auction.

There are only two surviving paintings by Su Dongpo, and their preciousness can be imagined, one is the "Xiaoxiang Bamboo and Stone Map" collected in the Huaxia Art Museum, and the other is the "Dead Wood, Bamboo and Stone, Wen Tongmo and Bamboo Volume" of the Magic City Museum.

Everyone will use this idiom in elementary school, I don't know if it comes from the mouth of Su Dongpo, he painted bamboo and stone are a must, and today there is a third one, and there must be a fierce fight.

But is this painting real?

Xia Yu couldn't help but have doubts in his heart.

The auction is not 100% fidelity, just like an umbrella cannot be intercepted 100% successfully, he doesn't go to join in the excitement because he doesn't understand, but if you understand people, do you really understand?

If his system is a leak detection system, he will definitely be able to distinguish the real from the fake, but the Shenhao system can only allow him to have the strength to buy it regardless of whether it is true or not.

Xia Yu didn't want to be wronged, so he chose not to wade into troubled waters, but others couldn't manage so much, and "Wood and Stone" officially started filming.

Unlike before, this time only special gold plates were allowed to participate in the auction, and instead of buying skins, they paid a deposit to Christie's.

The starting price starts from HK$380 million, and at the request of the client, the margin ratio is increased to 40% to prevent malicious bidding.

It is common knowledge that you have to pay a deposit for auctions, but 40% is rare enough.

Just when Xia Yu was complaining in his heart, someone made a bid.

"390 million!"

The other party was a foreigner, and after he made his bid, no one bid for a long time.

The more expensive the thing, the more difficult it is to sell, and the previous atmosphere of speculation has cooled down, after all, everyone's money is not blown by the wind.

After Lao Xia and Lin Shuqin repeatedly confirmed that their son's license plate was not gold, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, after all, the vase just now also sold for 43 million, and the four things together are more than 100 million.

The speed at which this kid spends money is too amazing, I'm really afraid that he will shoot this "Wood and Stone Map" together.

"400 million!"

Two minutes later, another buyer finally followed up and increased the price by 10 million.

It's a new face again, but it shouldn't be me to buy such an expensive thing.

Many large-scale transactions, the seller wants to sell quietly, and the buyer also wants to buy quietly, which can save a lot of trouble compared to the satisfaction of vanity.

Xia Yu's little bit is not big, and he doesn't need to find someone, but at an auction tomorrow, he wants to trouble Lao Xia to help him run.

No one is born a god, many things need to be exercised, and if you haven't spent a lot of money, what's the difference between that and Grande, after all, it's just a miser, you can't become a god, and you can't be a god's father.

"Dad, I have something to do tomorrow, can you do me a favor?"

"How can I help?"

Lao Xia asked curiously.

"Help me take a picture of this. ”

Xia Yu said and took out another booklet, which was printed with the Qing Kangxi Blue and White Twelve Flower God Cup.

Blue and white are different from five colors, and the colorful twelve flower god cups can no longer make up a set, so they can only retreat to the second choice of blue and white.

"This, this is tens of millions, right?"

"It's this estimate, it's not clear how much it can be auctioned, you can help me auction it tomorrow. ”

Xia Yu said it easily and freely, and Lao Xia heard it terrifying.

He has done several tens of millions of business, but this is completely different from spending tens of millions of dollars to shoot antiques, and he feels that he is not very good.

Xia Yu said that it would be okay, and if it didn't work, it would be okay, Lao Xia was under a lot of pressure.

There is always such a thing, after walking through it, it is the road of Kangzhuang, but if you can't go, Xia Yu can only be filial again, and help kick it.

"410 million!"

Just as the father and son were talking, a new price was shouted on the field.

It was a phone call, and the bidder didn't even come to the scene, and the agent didn't shoot, so he called the president of Christie's Asia.

It should be a regular customer, otherwise there is no such card.

PS: After checking the information, there is a certain controversy about whether "Wood and Stone Map" is genuine, and the protagonist's ability to appreciate calligraphy and painting is weak, so we won't buy it.
