Chapter 661 - Unexpected Encounter (Ask for Subscription)
The largest ballroom on the third floor of the Binhai Hotel was temporarily converted into an exhibition hall. The four walls are covered with various works of art, such as calligraphy, calligraphy, paintings, and woodcuts.
There are many booths in the hall, and a dazzling array of auction items are placed.
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon on Saturday, Lin Jie and An Kexin came here and found that there were already hundreds of people here who were lingering to visit the exhibits, and from time to time someone took out their mobile phones to take a photo or something.
Lin Jie and An Kexin came to the nearest booth.
Placed on it are a pair of blue and white porcelain bowls, with a brief introduction written on the nameplate.
Product name: Yongzheng brother glazed blue and white entwined lotus tea bowl pair
Donor: Mr. Gao Yajun of Dingsheng Group
Estimate: 50,000 RMB
Lin Jie noticed that in the auction column, there was a two-dimensional scanning code.
"Applejack, the exhibits placed here in the hall are all auctioned in secret auctions!"
An Kexin pointed to the two-dimensional scanning code and introduced: "You scan this QR code with your mobile phone, and the bidding page of this lot will appear on your mobile phone, and you can fill in the bid code you want to make." ”
"The lowest price should be the same as the estimate. ”
"After bidding, the dark auction deadline is up, and if your bid is the highest, then you are the winner, and the system will automatically deduct the payment. ”
"After the deduction is successful, the lot is yours. ”
Lin Jie nodded and said, "It's really keeping pace with the times, and the auction is also high-tech." ”
"What kind of high-tech is this?"
An Kexin took out her phone from her handbag, shook it, and said with a smile: "Applejack, do you want to give it a try and try your luck?"
"The lots shown here are all donated by big names with heads and faces, and when it comes to face issues, there are very few fakes. ”
Lin Jie shook his head and said, "Spend more than 50,000 yuan to buy a pair of tea bowls that are not very practical? I am insane, I will not do such a stupid thing." ”
He looked around, looked at the more than 100 booths in the hall, and said disappointedly: "I was still thinking about picking up a leak or something." ”
"However, there is an 'estimate' on the lot, and the bid must not be lower than this estimate, so it is estimated that it will not make any bargain. ”
An Kexin smiled softly, grabbed Lin Jie's hand, and said angrily: "This is a charity auction, just to give money, don't keep thinking about making money." ”
"Let's go, first look around and find something good to look at. ”
"I have to bid for one or two pieces, so as not to be called an iron rooster afterwards. ”
After looking at one or two dozen booths in succession, Lin Jie found that the exhibits here were mostly antiques and works of art, as well as some souvenirs that seemed to be very meaningful.
For example, he saw a pair of crystal heels.
This is the shoes of the big singer Xiaoxiao, according to the introduction on the nameplate, this is the shoes that Xiaoxiao wore when she sang the hit song "How Can I Forget You" at the Binhai concert.
Seeing the valuation of 30,000 yuan, Lin Jie couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "Xiaoxiao specializes in opening a shoe store and selling the shoes she wears, which makes more money than her hard singing." ”
An Kexin patted Lin Jie and said with a smile: "This is the celebrity effect, what sells is fame." ”
"You're also a celebrity now, let's find out, where is the physical examination paper that you went out in person? ”
She grinned and asked, "Applejack, why don't you guess the price and see how big the actual error is." ”
"Don't guess!" Lin Jie replied resolutely.
If you guess less, you feel uncomfortable, and if you guess higher, you are suspected of arrogance, and the best response is not to guess.
Seeing Lin Jie's resolute tone, An Kexin pursed his lips and pulled him to the next booth.
"Ah, Master Zang's custom dress roll! This is going to be photographed, Applejack, you need to customize a dress. ”
Lin Jie saw that the estimate reached forty-five thousand, and hurriedly stopped An Kexin, who wanted to bid.
"Stop, stop!"
He looked at the nameplate again and became a little angry.
"Just to make a set of clothes, it costs 45,000? Not including the cost of clothing, why didn't he grab it. ”
"Oh yes, I had a major surgery in the hospital, and I couldn't make so much money. ”
An Kexin bit her lip and said helplessly: "Master Zang is a well-known handmade clothing master in Binhai, and in recent years, he has rarely made a move, and it is said that he only accepts orders from some old customers now." ”
"Applejack, his craft, is worth the price. ”
Lin Jie felt a little unbalanced in his heart, and said unhappily: "When you wear clothes of hundreds or thousands of yuan, they look quite high-end." ”
"Wearing the clothes handmade by this master, can the ugly duckling turn into a white swan? Or can it cure the disease and prolong the life of the cancer?"
He waved his hand and snorted: "Let's go, we will resolutely not spend this unjust money." ”
An Kexin had no choice but to be reluctantly pulled by Lin Jie and stayed away from this booth.
After looking at a few more booths, the two came to a place where there were more people watching.
This is a large-scale root carving work.
It is more than three meters tall and more than two meters wide, and it is full of horses with different expressions, which is quite imposing.
Lin Jie and An Kexin went to the nameplate and found that this root carving was called "Hundred Horses Galloping", which was carved from a whole piece of camphor wood, and carved with a hundred horses with different postures.
The estimate is $2 million.
There is also a note on the nameplate that this root carving is only for display, and does not accept bids, and is a lot for the on-site auction of the dinner.
Lin Jie also noticed that the donor wrote about Vantone Group, and couldn't help but say: "Vantone is still always rich and generous!"
An Kexin said a little unconvinced: "It depends on how many people are willing to give face to Vantone Group at the dinner." If it was cold, the people of Vantone had to take pictures by themselves. ”
At this time, a slightly surprised voice came into Lin Jie's ear drums, "Auntie, there is a bottle of Moutai wine that has been stored for thirty years, it is still a special supply from the military, and grandpa likes to drink Moutai the most." ”
"Shall we take a picture?"
An Kexin also heard this voice, and looked at the voice with Lin Jie.
I saw a young man with a bright spirit and a slightly plump young woman standing in front of a booth five or six miles in front of the left.
On the booth is a bottle of Moutai.
The young woman walked closer, looked at the nameplate description, and said, "It was donated by the Anlin Charity Fund again." What they donate is something tangible. ”
"Moutai, which has been preserved for 30 years, is rare on the market and can be used as a holiday gift for Dad. ”
The young woman groaned for a moment and said, "Hmm...... Bo Chao, for the sake of insurance, let's pay 660,000. ”
This price made Lin Jie a little shocked.
An Kexin tugged at his sleeve and explained in a low voice: "Moutai, which has been preserved for 30 years, has a market price of more than 100,000 yuan, but in the eyes of wine collectors, this is priceless. ”
"And this is a charity auction, and in order to show the heart of charity, some people will deliberately raise the price. Therefore, it is not outrageous that they offer this price. ”
Lin Jie nodded a little knowingly.
He suddenly understood a little, and said with a smile: "Kexin, are you taking the opportunity to educate me, don't be stingy or stingy." After all, this is a charity auction, it doesn't matter what you buy, what matters is to give love?"
An Kexin said in a resolute tone: "What's the matter, Ajie, you are simply thinking too much." ”
The two walked around a few more booths, and finally found something that Lin Jie was interested in.
A soprano saxophone, and it is also produced by the famous brand Selmer.
Seeing it, Lin Jie felt that the musical soul in a certain part of his body was ignited.
He couldn't help but silently ask in his mind: "Sister Lan Ruo, do you know how to play the saxophone?"
"Not only can I play, but I'm also very good at it!"
Shen Lanruo said in a cheerful tone in Lin Jie's mind: "When I was a child, I was forced by my parents to study the piano for more than ten years. After studying medicine, life was too monotonous and boring, but the dormitory was too small to put down the piano, so in order to adjust my life and soothe my emotions, I learned the saxophone. ”
"Applejack, you've taken an interest in the saxophone, and perhaps you've accepted my memory of it, just like driving a car, and you don't learn it. ”
Thinking of this possibility, Lin Jie took out his mobile phone with great interest and prepared to scan the code to bid.
An Kexin looked strange and asked, "Applejack, do you want to buy a saxophone?"
"Don't give it away, I'll use it myself!"
Lin Jie further explained: "Sometimes when I think about surgical options and research medical problems, my brain is too tired and muddy, so I always want to learn a musical instrument or something, and adjust my brain. ”
"When I saw this soprano saxophone, I had a feeling and decided to learn it in the future. ”
An Kexin sighed, nodded in support: "Very good idea, learning a musical instrument and cultivating sentiment is very good." I'll tell you, I can play the piano. ”
"You've learned the saxophone, and we can play together. ”
The estimate of this saxophone is 36,000, Lin Jie looked at the bid page that popped up on his mobile phone, and asked, "Kexin, how much do you think I bid, and I am more sure?"
An Kexin pondered for a while, shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, the instrument is relatively niche, if you like it, it is possible to spend thousands of dollars, and if you are not interested, you will not bid at all." ”
Lin Jie thought about it for a while, directly lost a number, thirty-six thousand, and said with a smile: "Try your luck, if you can't vote, go to the musical instrument store to buy a new one, just practice, you don't have to have a famous brand, you can blow it." ”
"Lin expert, Lin expert!"
With this voice, Lin Jie turned around and saw a tall middle-aged man with thick eyebrows, striding towards him with some excitement.
Lin Jie looked at An Kexin, and saw her shaking her head slightly, indicating that she didn't know her either.
The middle-aged man approached and enthusiastically stretched out his hand.
"Expert Lin, I really didn't expect to see you here. ”
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Jin Lechen, and I am the director of Yuerong Plastic Surgery Hospital. ”
Yue Rong Plastic Surgery Hospital?
Lin Jie stretched out half of his hand, but he was stagnant.
He remembered Chen Qiuhua's admonition.
Jin Lechen's hand reached forward further, grabbed Lin Jie's hand, and shook it vigorously: "I know, if I call from time to time, I must have made you tired of me." ”
"I apologize to you and I'm sorry. ”
"Expert Lin, your plastic surgery skills are too superb, too difficult for me to self-control, you must accept my bow. ”
