Something from 1,100 years ago?"

Qin Fan frowned, although he was a science student, he had always learned history well, and with a little calculation, it was clear that this antique cultural relic came from the Tang Dynasty.

And this time, Bai Pujia deliberately explained that he must take down the facsimile of "The Female History of Zhentu", which is also from the Tang Tomb!

Could it be it?

However, before the genuine product appeared, Qin Fan could only wait quietly and patiently, such a national treasure-level cultural relic as "The Female Historian", even if it was a Jockey Club, would not dare to blatantly take it out for auction in such a public occasion.

It's just that since there are Huaxia antiques that have been circulated, if the final auction price will not hurt his muscles and bones, if possible, Qin Fan still plans to auction it back to see if Bai Pujia is needed.

"It would be nice if there were calligraphy and paintings, there are too many porcelains at home, there is no place to put them, calligraphy and paintings are easier to collect, and the value-added space is also larger......" Qin Fan thought about it, and then smiled.

Daniel seemed to want to retain a trace of suspense, and then said with a smile: "It's really bold to be able to put the top porcelain antiques in the nowhere to put them, but for your Xia family, it's really normal, but tonight's lot, I just heard that it has been more than a year ago...... As for what it is, whether it is the calligraphy and painting you want, it has to be seen by Mr. Xia himself. ”

As he spoke, as the lights in the banquet hall dimmed, the host in charge of the auction walked up with a microphone in his hand.

Daniel turned away in amusement.

"Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests, welcome all from all over the world, thousands of miles away, to participate in the Club Charity Night, the auction items are provided by the Club, and 30% of the funds from the transaction will be donated to the Foundation's Autistic Children's Sanatorium, contributing a beautiful hope to 130,000 autistic children......

"Now, I would like to invite Mr. Zhao Sheng, the representative of the Jockey Club and the largest donor of the lot on this charity auction night, the chairman of the Hong Kong Island Charity Association and the president of the Federation of Business People, to pay tribute to all of you."

The host in charge of the auction is a very famous entertainment host of Hong Kong Island TV, and the hosting style is relaxed and humorous, which makes the serious atmosphere of the scene quickly lively.

And after Zhao Sheng, who was sitting in the first row, turned around and bowed to all the guests who came to participate in the charity night, the first auction item was pushed up by the staff.

"The first lot to be offered below is a pearl necklace from the Bourbon Parma family...... Composed of 132 natural pearls, it is a number beloved by the family of Parma Bourbon, and is also the necklace worn by the famous 'Guillotine Queen' during her lifetime......"

The first auction item that Zhao Sheng took out shocked the entire venue.

For these guests in the venue, pearls are not precious and rare, but the preciousness of this necklace lies in the fact that it is actually an item brought by Marie Antoinette, the queen of Louis XVI of the country F that was once famous all over the world!

As a woman who was able to sweep the world more than 400 years ago, she not only pioneered the purchase of luxury goods, but also poured the entire F country into buying top luxury goods for herself.

After all, a woman who can eat a king is definitely an idol in the minds of many contemporary women!

Her name is a symbol of luxury, and even influenced the concept of love and marriage of women in country F for hundreds of years later.

Moreover, a woman who devotes the strength of a country to buy jewelry and luxury goods for herself will naturally not have a bad vision.

Abandon the hidden scenery history behind this pearl necklace, its more than 100, a natural formation of perfect color pearls, each one is difficult to find in the world, the pendant under the pearl, cut into a star-shaped pattern by the top jewelry carver of the F country at that time, inlaid with cushion-shaped, round and rose-cut diamonds, is exquisite, all the time no longer exudes the artistic atmosphere of the master jeweler.

"Mr. Zhao, if the necklace that Queen Mary wore around her neck when she was decapitated at auction today, I would like to ...... Everyone will be more interested!"

A voice suddenly appeared in the crowd, it was obvious that this person was very familiar with the past of country F, and his words also made many people who knew about this past laugh.

"What if I say that there is something you want in tonight's exhibits? Mr. Meng, do you have the confidence to take a picture of it and give it to your beloved woman?"

The host smiled, and after popularizing the knowledge of this necklace, he said: "The reserve price of this pearl necklace is 800,000 US dollars, and each increase shall not be less than 100,000 US dollars, gentlemen and ladies, you can bid......

"A million dollars!"

On this occasion, there is never a need to worry about the launched items being unsold, and as soon as the host's high-spirited words fell, someone immediately raised the number plate.

"One and a half million dollars!"

"Two million dollars!"

"Three million three hundred thousand dollars!"

"Four million!"

As if to show his financial strength, every bite of the price is far higher than the established starting point of 100,000 US dollars, no way, for some people who take out 100 US dollars as a tip for breakfast, 100,000 US dollars really can't open their mouths, and they can't afford to lose this person.

"George, I love this pearl necklace so much, it's made for me, you must help me take a picture of it, okay?"

A voice came from Qin Fan's side, Qin Fan turned his head, and saw a traffic artist who has often appeared on the mainland TV screen recently, holding the arm of an old man with gray hair, and said urgently in his ear.

When a man reaches this age, he earns money that the family can't spend for several lifetimes, and the root of his ears is also the softest, the old man can't stand the attack of a woman who is a little too small when his granddaughter is a little too small, and directly raised the number plate in his hand: "Five million!"

"Five and a half million!"

"Six million!"

"Six and a half million!"

“……”

The old man didn't expect that his heroic throw would be instantly overwhelmed by a series of bids, and a discerning person could see that this pearl necklace was worth up to two million US dollars, just a lottery for the charity night, but at this time, who cares about the value of the item, being pressed in front of the beloved woman is the last thing these top rich people want to see.

"This, that's too, isn't it?"

"A broken pearl necklace was called for $6.5 million?"

The host was also a little stunned, before he had time to show his superb auction skills, this necklace had already been auctioned for three times the price expected by Zhao Sheng!

This is too unreasonable!

"Six and a half million, also, is there any continued bidding?"

Swallowing his throat and drying his throat, the host raised his hammer and looked around with his eyes.

The banquet hall fell silent.

There must be a degree of competitiveness.

Especially when the old man saw an Arab with a long white cloth hat and ten fingers full of large gems of various colors looking back at him, he immediately dispelled the idea of continuing to bargain.

What are you kidding, bidding for something with this kind of person? It's really a face and nowhere to throw it.

"This pearl necklace is more suitable for mature women, at least forty years old, and it also needs to be matched with many clothing and jewelry suitable for mature women, in order to show its value, you are too young, you don't need such mature jewelry now, there is a suitable one later, I will shoot it for you......"

The old man pretended to speak calmly, and he had already made a promise, so he quickly dispelled the woman's thoughts, and he didn't pester him to continue to bargain.

What's more, all of you here are discerning people, and they know very well the actual value of this pearl necklace, and besides, the auction has just begun, and everyone knows that the best is still to come.

"Eight million!"

Just as the host was about to drop the hammer, a female voice suddenly sounded, the host was overjoyed, looked at the sign, and found that the person who finally raised the sign and called the price turned out to be the female companion who came with Zhao Sheng today, the woman who just came to Hong Kong Island from the mainland, Li Peizi!
