At this moment, there are already more than 20 people sitting in the conference room, but unless they are acquaintances sitting together, everyone generally does not communicate.

The two stunned said goodbye to everyone at the door, and the three of them walked in together, and immediately many people gave them a "attention salute".

Cheng Qiheng nodded with a few people he knew, and then took Meng Zitao and them, and found a position where the sight was okay, but it was not very inconspicuous.

Cheng Qiheng first popularized the auction process to Meng Zitao, because everyone had never seen anything here before, so there was a link to go on stage to appreciate the treasure.

You have to have the corresponding strength to appraise the treasure on stage, otherwise the thing will not be shown to you, and the time for appreciating the treasure is only one minute.

Meng Zitao was surprised: "What can I see in a minute?"

Cheng Qiheng said with a smile: "Hehe, don't say it's a waste of time to watch it for a long time, the things here are cheaper than the market price, if everyone has enough time, what kind of money does the boss make?"

Meng Zitao immediately understood the meaning, which was nothing more than that there were some fakes mixed in with it. This is also normal, businessmen, how can they want to lose money in business, and they have spent so much money and energy, so they always have to make more. And as long as it's not too much, everyone must not be careful.

After the process of appreciating treasures, it is the auction, and this process, of course, is the one with the highest price. And after the transaction, you must pay the money immediately.

introduced the process of the auction, and Cheng Qiheng introduced the people he knew to Meng Zitao, which was also in line with Meng Zitao's intentions, after all, if he wants to expand his network, he must first get to know people.

When Cheng Qiheng introduced Meng Zitao, five or six people came in one after another, and what made Meng Zitao a little unhappy was that Xue Wenguang actually came, this time he came with another middle-aged man with fat heads and big ears.

This middle-aged man is like an upstart, he actually wears rings on most of his fingers, and the gold necklace around his neck is as thick as a finger, and he is not afraid of discomfort.

And this middle-aged man is still holding a bewitching woman in one hand, followed by a black-clothed bodyguard. That appearance is simply the same as the image of the local tyrant in the Xiangjiang movie in the 90s. Meng Zitao thinks that this person has watched too many movies like this.

"Who the hell is this guy?" Wang Menghan asked softly.

"Zhu Dachang. Cheng Qiheng replied.

Wang Menghan was a little dumbfounded and asked, "What! In reality, there are still people with this name, do his parents have a grudge against him?"

"It seems that his grandfather named him. Cheng Qiheng said with a smile: "Don't look at his name is not very good, and his style is too public, but this person is very shrewd and has a very good way to do business." ”

"Maybe this is called the fact that people should not be seen, and the sea should not be measured. ”

As he spoke, Meng Zitao glanced back and found that Xue Wenguang was also looking at him, and gave him a meaningful smile.

Seeing this situation, Meng Zitao thought, what does Xue Wenguang mean, could it be that the matter of the statue happened? If this is the case, then he must be prepared to take precautions.

However, thinking about it again, he felt that this possibility was not very large, if Lu Changdai learned the authenticity of the statue, he would be unlucky, Xue Wenguang, as the palm master, would not be much better, then Xue Wenguang would definitely hate him to the bone, how could he treat him with this attitude now.

"Forget it, it's useless to think about this matter, it's just that the soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it. ”

It was close to ten o'clock in the morning, and the auctioneer walked out of the side door next to the rostrum, and at his signal, the waiter was about to close the door, and at this time, two more people ran in in a hurry.

To Meng Zitao's surprise, one of them was none other than Zhang Jingqiang.

Zhang Jingqiang was also overjoyed to see Meng Zitao and the others, and hurriedly took the man who looked like a bodyguard next to him, walked to the seat next to them, sat down, and whispered hello.

Cheng Qiheng asked with some curiosity: "Uncle Zhang, aren't you not too interested in such a place, why did you come here today?"

Zhang Jingqiang said: "Didn't I hear that this finale was a cloisonne tripod from the Qianlong period, I was very interested, so I came over." ”

Speaking of this, he raised his head and looked around, and when he saw Zhu Dachang, his brows furrowed, and he said, "Why does this guy Zhu Dachang come over?"

"What, Uncle Zhang, you don't deal with Zhu Dachang?" asked Cheng Qiheng curiously.

Zhang Jingqiang said: "I am in the same industry as him, and our company also bid together some time ago, but this guy's methods are too dirty, and he robbed him." ”

Although Zhang Jingqiang said it lightly, the three of them still heard Zhang Jingqiang's anger towards Zhu Dachang, in the end, cutting off people's wealth is like killing parents.

After everyone said a few words, the auctioneer on the stage spoke: "Friends who can come here must be familiar with the process of the auction, so I won't say much about it, let's get straight to the topic and invite the first lot......"

While the auctioneer was talking, a waiter carried the lot to a table on the podium, but it was a mallet bottle.

"Qing Kangxi blue and white character story picture stick mallet bottle. ”

The auctioneer opened his mouth and introduced: "The mallet bottle is a newly created vessel in the Kangxi period, and it is named because it resembles the mallet used in the old laundry. This bottle tire white matter is firm, the pulp is white glaze, the blue and white painting decoration, the neck is decorated with a few poles of green bamboo, and the body of the vessel is painted with blue and white painting "Guo Ziyi's Birthday Picture". ”

"This bottle shape is tall, the blue and white hair color is suitable, the painting is delicate and expressive, the water is skillful, the picture is rich in a strong three-dimensional sense, known as 'emerald blue', its verdant beauty, showing the charm of Kangxi's "blue and white five colors" ......"

The auctioneer spoke in detail and explained the characteristics of the bottle, but many people in the audience were silent, worried that competitors would take advantage of it from their expressions.

"Qing Kangxi blue and white character story picture mallet bottle, the starting price is 50,000 yuan, please come to the stage to identify!"

Generally speaking, the selection of the first thing at the auction is a very important thing, not too high, not too low.

If the value of the lot is high, although it can improve the atmosphere of the auction, when the lot is sold, it will definitely affect the transaction price of the subsequent lots. And if the price of the lot is low, it will not play a role in enhancing the atmosphere of the auction, and it is more likely to be lost, which will be embarrassing.

Therefore, it is common for auctions to select a representative work that does not cost too much. Just like the blue and white character story of the Qing Kangxi in front of me, it is not only a popular porcelain of the Qing Dynasty and the third dynasty of the Qing Dynasty, but also has a complete condition and huge appreciation potential, so there is definitely no possibility of unsuccessful auction.

"Let's go, anyone can go to the first lot to appreciate the treasure, let's go and join in the fun. ”

Cheng Qiheng asked Zhang Jingqiang's bodyguard to look at his cash box, and then led everyone to the rostrum.

Due to time constraints, it was soon Mencius's turn, and he took the mallet bottle in his hand.

The body of the mallet bottle depicts the birthday celebration of Guo Ziyi, the king of Fenyang in the Tang Dynasty. Guo has seven sons and eight sons-in-law who are officials in the court, and one of them is a concubine in the court. Every time he celebrates his birthday, the seven sons and eight sons-in-law all come to celebrate their birthdays with their sons, which can be described as high-ranking officials, full of children and grandchildren, rich and long-lived. This picture is also praised as "the great wealth and longevity test".

Just looking at the painting of this character, Meng Zitao also knew that this was probably a good thing to open the door wide, and he used his ability to identify it, and sure enough.

Walking to the seat, Zhang Jingqiang asked softly, "How are the things?"

"Open the door. Cheng Qiheng was concise and to the point.

Meng Zitao took over and said: "The implication is good. ”

Zhang Jingqiang listened to the words of the two, and was also a little moved, and after thinking about it for a while, he made a decision.

Soon, there was only the auctioneer left on the rostrum, he looked around and said: "Qing Kangxi blue and white character story picture mallet bottle, the starting price is 50,000, and the price increase shall not be less than 10,000 yuan each time!"

It is generally known that the first lot in an auction like this is unlikely to be a fake, and the fact that the starting price is not expensive makes many people participate.

"Eighty thousand!"

"One hundred thousand!"

"One hundred and fifty thousand!"

"One hundred and sixty thousand!"

Soon, the price reached 320,000. In terms of the price in the antique market, 320,000 yuan is equivalent to picking up a small leak, but in this kind of auction, the price is not cheap, and there are many fewer bidders.

At this time, Zhang Jingqiang began to bid "350,000!"

As soon as he saw Zhang Jingqiang bidding, Zhu Dachang, who was sitting on the other side, smiled: "Three hundred and eighty thousand!"

"400,000!" Zhang Jingqiang glanced at Zhu Dachang lightly.

"Four hundred and one thousand!" Zhu Dachang gave Zhang Jingqiang a provocative look.

Zhang Jingqiang smiled, and suddenly stopped following. At this time, everyone else stopped raising the price, and the price was set here.

Zhu Dachang put away his smile, turned around and asked Xue Wenguang a few words, then snorted coldly and asked the bodyguard to get the bottle back.

Zhang Jingqiang smiled, although 410,000 is not expensive, the market price is about the same, so it is a little expensive here. Besides, a person can only bring so much money, and the more Zhu Dachang spends in front, the more important things in the back can't be bought.

The stage was quickly replaced with a piece of jade, and the auctioneer briefly introduced that it was a piece of jade from the Han Dynasty.

This time, Meng Zitao and others also came to the stage to appreciate the treasure. I saw that the jade material is green jade, most of them have Tuqin, the whole is decorated with grain grain, the carving is delicate and exquisite, the shape is elegant, the pulp is natural and simple, and the proportion of the inner hole and the outer ring is appropriate.

Due to the relationship of time, Meng Zitao did not look closely, and after looking at a few characteristics, he used the ability, but to his surprise, this piece of jade was actually a fake......
