150 Qianlong clocks

The formal auction soon began, and a very charming young woman stood on the stage, lightly struck the hammer, and the rich people in the room fell silent.

The staff first took a plate and came up, and when they opened the red cloth, they revealed a golden ingot of horseshoe gold, which was counted down to a total of eight, and the people present were in an uproar.

If it is just ordinary gold, even if there are ten catties or 100 gold, it will not make the rich people in an uproar, mainly because of the shape of gold.

In the past two years, a very popular tomb of the Marquis of Haidun has been unearthed, and it is this shape of horseshoe gold that has been unearthed.

Chen Xiu's palms were hot, and although he hadn't been able to get close enough to touch it, in his experience, it must be genuine.

"This kind of thing dares to be put up for public auction, the organizer has a few lives enough to be shot!" Chen Xiu said in surprise.

"Hey...... I've heard that they've auctioned off anything more valuable than horseshoe gold before, and nothing happened. Rest assured, this underground auction house is safe and has never had an accident before...... Brother Chen, this horseshoe gold is genuine, I'll do it. ”

"If there was no accident before, it doesn't mean that there won't be an accident in the future, I won't touch this kind of thing. ”

"It's not that serious, is it?"

"This is the hottest artifact on the Internet right now...... I don't have the strength of your Anshan, and no one will get me out when I go in. ”

"It's really that serious, forget it, I'd better not touch it, even if my dad fishes me out, Li Hongyang will laugh to death. ”

Although Chen Xiu and Gong Daoming didn't dare to touch it, other rich people were not afraid, this was a good thing from the tomb of a person who had been an emperor, not to mention a little dragon energy, it was definitely a long-faced thing to buy it and show it to others.

The eight horseshoe gold, which was less than ten catties, were sold from one million to more than eight million, and were finally bought by a coal boss.

Chen Xiu said straight, there are a lot of local tyrants in Anshan.

Next, several pieces of contraband were auctioned in a row at the auction, and if they were caught and not shot, they would have been in for five years, and Chen Xiu naturally did not make a move.

Gong Daoming saw someone else take a picture, and his heart was itching, although he himself was just the basic collector, how good the thing was, and he didn't understand what was good, but when he saw that the person who bought it was in the limelight, the people who didn't buy it regretted it.

Think about it, if you buy it yourself, and others look at you with envy, jealousy, and hatred, wouldn't it be the most handsome boy in the audience!

At this time, the time came to 9:59 in the morning.

"What we want to auction next is that the Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty inlaid with four corners of the stone tower gold inlaid with red silk enamel glass Western pavilion shell clock, everyone listen to me countdown, ten, nine, eight ......"

Although everyone didn't know what the young woman auctioneer of this charm was counting down, they also counted down together, and when they counted to "three, two, one", it was just ten o'clock.

"Bell, bell, bell......"

The loud sound of the clock rang out ten times.

"Everyone has also heard that this clock has gone through more than 200 years, and the bell is still loud and melodious, and the time is not missing a second!"

As soon as her words came out, it caused a stir in the audience, but Gong Daoming asked very innocently: "During the Qianlong period, there were clocks and watches at that time?

Chen Xiu glanced at him and whispered: "Gong Shao, you are fortunate to be the one who asked me the question of idiot, if you ask Li Hongyang, you will definitely be laughed to death by him."

Clocks were invented by Europeans, and yes. However, since 1601, when the Italian missionary Matteo Ricci presented the first self-striking bell to the Wanli Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Western clocks and watches have been presented to the court.

When Kangxi, Yongzheng, and Qianlong, the grandsons, fathers and sons, made and collected a large number of clocks and watches in the palace, not only in the palaces, but also on the cars, sedan chairs, boats, and saddles that went out.

As a result, a large number of novelty clocks are used every year.

These clocks are made in the Qing Palace, Guangzhou, Suzhou, and Britain, France, Germany, Sweden and other countries.

However, because of the long age, the craftsmanship of clocks and watches is the most refined, and there is nothing left in the Kangxi and Yongzheng periods, leaving only a part of the Qianlong period.

This timepiece with a four-cornered stone tower with gold and red entwined enamel glass pavilion case is definitely a fine ......"

Chen Xiu didn't finish the introduction, but listened to the young woman auctioneer on the stage continue: "And the most commendable thing is that our gold-inlaid red silk enamel glass Western-style pavilion-style case clock inlaid with four-cornered flower stone tower has never touched the movement at all, and it has been 100% unharmed after more than two hundred years of inheritance!"

Starting at 8 million, start now!"

"Haven't touched the movement?"

Now Chen Xiu is a little moved, there are a lot of clocks and watches of the Qing Dynasty in the Palace Museum, some of the shapes are more magnificent than this, but most of them have changed the movement, after all, after hundreds of years can not be used is the norm, so no longer repair, but remake the movement or replace the original movement with the movement of other clocks, and the movement is removed for materials.

If you haven't touched the movement, the price is not too expensive to 20 million.

Gong Daoming didn't think it was expensive, not because he moved, but because the current "green ghost" on his hand was more than 5 million, and more than 8 million was expensive to buy a ringing clock that Emperor Qianlong had heard?

It's too cheap!

"Brother Chen, can you shoot this clock?"

However, he is more worried about whether the clock is banned or not, which is a big problem.

"This clock can circulate in the market and is legal, but it is not ......"

Before Chen Xiu finished speaking, someone was already holding up a sign and shouting: "Ten million!"

The first to shout the price, the low price is not called and it starts directly to 10 million, it seems that this person is not only ambitious, but also a local tyrant.

Chen Xiu and Gong Daoming were also the people who followed everyone to look at the past and raise the sign, and Gong Daoming solved the scolding: ", Li Hongyang is this!"

"Buyer 18 is 10 million, and who is willing to bid?"

Gong Daoming snatched the sign directly from the assistant's hand, held it high, and shouted: "Fourteen million!"

Didn't you only raise the price by two million, and my palace will always be twice as high as you!

This is Gong Daoming's bidding strategy when facing Li Hongyang, it doesn't matter what the money is, what you want is to win, and you have to win with momentum.

"Buyer No. 30 offered 14 million, is there anyone else bidding?"

Fourteen million is definitely not a high price for this clock, and there was a real estate owner who wanted to raise a sign but was stopped by his companion next to him.

"Don't get involved, Runfa's Gong Shao and Hongyuan's Li Shao are fighting again, let's just watch a good show, this clock lets them play well, anyway, there are more good things in the back, so as not to offend both sides." ”
