Chapter 58: Go to the Auction
Gong Jian told the truth, but attracted the attention of the surrounding people, "I won't tell you, these are just applying the knowledge taught to me by my father, and occasionally going to the antique market to pick up leaks." ”
"Hehe, Mr. Gong Jian, you are really joking. The manager handed Gong Jian a look I understand you.
The young appraiser next to him snorted even more disdainfully, since the manager said that those are genuine, they must not be bad, how can it be possible to pick up the antique market, I often go to the antique market, why haven't I picked it up, maybe where did you get it.
He thinks so, and everyone else thinks so, but the auction house is just a place to buy and sell, and as long as the collection is not stolen, they will discuss the specific method of auction with the customer after appraisal.
Next, Gong Jian entrusted the collection to the auction house to go through various procedures, and then returned home, the next thing to wait for is the local auction house annual auction of the most sumptuous autumn auction, his antiques, because of the good quality also included in this autumn auction, I hope that there will be a buyer who knows the goods, give a good price.
When the day of the auction came, Gong Jian got up early to prepare to go to the auction house, just in case, he put on the AR glasses, but what he didn't expect was that the goddess Chopra ran out of the glasses all of a sudden.
"Gong Jian, are you going to participate in that auction?" Capra looked at Gong Jian with bad intentions.
The goddess's blonde hair dangled in front of his eyes, Gong Jian suddenly regretted putting the glasses on so quickly, Chopra had no way to refuse, Gong Jian had to nod his head in acquiescence.
"It's really great, I've been looking forward to it these days!" Chopra didn't wait for Gong Jian to speak, his body turned slightly, and the gorgeous clothes of the divine realm instantly turned into a casual outfit, and the baseball cap that Gong Jian threw on the sofa that she grabbed casually buckled on her head, and said to Gong Jian excitedly: "What are you still in a daze, let's go quickly." ”
"Hey!" What else could Gong Jian say, the glasses were empty, Xiaoya and the little girl Rafi Soma were not there, but the goddess of art was waiting for him.
After going out, Gong Jian unexpectedly met Uncle Zhang again, who was about to go out to walk the dog. Uncle Zhang and the golden retriever blinked at Gong Jian excitedly, startling Gong Jian, and hurriedly pulled the goddess downstairs.
When Gong Jian drove his brand-new second-hand car into the parking lot, he was surprised to find that the originally empty parking lot was almost empty at this time.
Chopra's eyes were sharp, and under her guidance, Gong Jian finally found a parking space. When they walked into the auction hall, Gong Jian realized that he had arrived very late compared to the other buyers.
Although Gong Jian came to the auction house as a seller today, since he has come to the auction house, he also plans to see if there are any satisfactory lots today.
So he also signed up for this auction in advance, and after receiving the buyer's bidding card, Gong Jian and the goddess walked into the auction hall.
The hall was bustling and crowded, many people were talking about today's lot, Gong Jian found an unnoticed place, sat down carefully, and Chopra was beside him.
"No. 008?" Goddess Chopra looked at the number plate in Gong Jian's hand and asked curiously, "What is this for?"
"When you want to buy something, you hold up a sign, but every time you raise it, you will increase the price, and once you raise a sign, you have to ask for it regardless of the price, so you have to be very cautious about holding this sign. Gong Jian briefly introduced the bidding process, and Jochopula nodded as if he didn't understand.
The time for the auction was approaching, and this time the auctioneer and other staff in charge of the auction walked out, and the auction house immediately became much quieter.
The auctioneer gave a more detailed description of the lot, and the official auction began.
The starting price of the first lot was very expensive, Gong Jian could only wait and see, but Chopra on the side shook his head: "It looks good, but the age is not too long, why can it be auctioned so expensive?"
"Because it was painted by modern masters, things that are not ancient in the mortal world must be expensive, and they are not necessarily cheap now. Gong Jian explained.
"Oh!" Chopra nodded, as if it should be the case, the true value of an antique still depends on its artistic level and cherishment.
With the frequent holding of signs in the audience, one lot after another was constantly sold. Gong Jian stared nervously at the booklet in his hand, his cloth coin was about to appear.
His inconspicuous-looking cloth coin was encased in a fine glass box, and the auctioneer described the coin carefully, carefully setting it aside in front of the stage and bidding on it.
At the beginning, the purchase price was very slow, and the increase was very small, Gong Jian was nervous, could it be this city, no one likes such ancient money, right?
However, with the continuous encouragement of the auctioneer, the buyers below became excited for a while, and then became faster and faster, and the price reduction rose sharply, and the ancient coins with a starting price of 500,000 yuan were quickly speculated to 2 million.
"Gee, that's pretty much worth it. Chopra saw that everyone was desperately raising signs, and the warm atmosphere made her excited, and her voice was a little loud.
Gong Jian hurriedly covered Chopra's lips, the identities of the seller and the buyer were kept secret, and he didn't want this big mouth to expose his identity.
Chopra's plump red lips moved under Gong Jian's hand, and Gong Jian saw that she was no longer speech, so he put his hand down: "Our seller's identity still needs to be kept secret." He whispered.
"Oh!" Chopra lowered her hat, and for some reason, two red clouds floated over her face, this Gong Jian was too bold, and he dared to cover the goddess's mouth with his hand, and see if I would find an opportunity to teach you a lesson in the future.
The goddess secretly slandered Gong Jian there, but he looked at his lot happily, and was constantly shouted out of high prices, and finally when the price stopped at 2.9 million, the auctioneer's hammer struck down.
Great! I didn't want to pick up such a high price! It seems that these buyers in this city are quite generous. Gong Jian felt that he was really satisfied, the price of this ancient coin alone was enough for his initial expenses to expand the company.
Next, the lots commissioned by Gong Jian were auctioned one by one at a price that he was very satisfied with, and the rough calculation was already 5 million, Gong Jian felt that the expenses required for the expansion of the company this time were enough, which was really thanks to the goddess Chopra.
