Chapter 173: Auction in the Demon Capital

At this time, Shen Tianming appeared at the auction site of the magic capital, which was an accident for Zhao Ming. He never thought that Shen Tianming would come to the Demon Capital from the provincial capital to participate in the auction of the Demon Capital.

I learned from Boss Zhao of the Golden Dragon Hotel that Shen Tianming is also a lover of gambling stones, it seems that Shen Tianming is also more fond of collecting antiques and jade on weekdays, and it is not surprising that he can come to the auction in the magic capital to participate in the auction this time, but Zhao Ming always feels that this is probably not as simple as it seems on the surface.

When Zhao Ming went to Myanmar to gamble on stones, Shen Tianming sent the gangsters in Myanmar to conduct a crazy tracking of Zhao Ming, but fortunately, Boss Zhao had the foresight at that time and arranged for Feng Laosan, who was in Myanmar and was a special soldier before, to help, Zhao Ming was able to get out and leave Myanmar smoothly.

And some time ago, when Zhao Ming went to Mincheng Ancient Town to hunt for treasure, he was also surrounded and intercepted by the people sent by Shen Tianming, fortunately, the people sent by Boss Zhao were smart and witty, Zhao Ming was able to avoid those people and return to Dongcheng safely.

Facing Shen Tianming in front of him at this moment, Zhao Ming pretended to be calm, he turned on the faucet and washed his hands slowly, ignoring Shen Tianming on the side at all.

At today's auction, Zhao Ming is dressed more formally as always, and he looks particularly stable and capable in a suit, which is enough to see that Zhao Ming attaches great importance to this auction.

Shen Tianming looked at Zhao Ming, his eyes were full of banter and ridicule, Zhao Ming turned off the faucet, his eyes inadvertently touched Shen Tianming's eyes, he did not panic, but nodded and smiled, which was regarded as greeting Shen Tianming.

Such a gentlemanly Zhao Ming made Shen Tianming a little stunned for a while, but Shen Tianming is a rich second generation in the provincial city, and most of the people around him on weekdays are people who are sloppy and patting horses, and Zhao Ming's greeting to Shen Tianming naturally makes Shen Tianming very useful. The mood was instantly better.

But having said that, Shen Tianming came to participate in the auction of the magic capital this time, it can be said that he came to Zhao Ming, not only thinking about stumbling Zhao Ming openly and secretly, but also thinking that he could take this opportunity to humiliate Zhao Ming, this moment is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Shen Tianming naturally will not let it go.

"Zhao Ming! Okay, you Zhao Ming! I thought that the gang in the Black Stone Society in Myanmar would be able to solve you, but I didn't expect to let you escape! Count you as a kind! But I don't believe your luck will always be so good!" Shen Tianming said with a cheap look on his face and an arrogant tone.

When Zhao Ming heard Shen Tianming say this, he naturally wouldn't take it to heart, and now Shen Tianming went to this bathroom alone to block him, it was nothing more than a momentary quick tongue, let him say whatever he wanted, anyway, if he said too much, he would lose, maybe Shen Tianming himself would say the purpose of the auction in the magic capital, Zhao Ming thought in his heart, and looked at himself absentmindedly in the mirror.

"Let Shen Gongzi remember, I, Zhao Ming, have always done things above board, and I have no grievances with Shen Gongzi, and I don't know why Shen Gongzi is biting me like this?" Zhao Ming said with interest. Obviously, in his heart, Shen Tianming was a mad dog.

"I don't care about some things, but don't forget! The matter between us is not over! You just wait and see!" Shen Tianming said angrily, and after speaking, he left the bathroom and went straight to the auction site.

Zhao Ming saw that Shen Tianming's face was red and white before leaving, obviously he was really stimulated by Zhao Ming, thinking that the people around Uncle Ma had taught Shen Tianming a bad lesson in Shen Tianming's Nightclub in the Nightless City, I am afraid that Shen Tianming will grit his teeth with hatred every time he thinks of it, Zhao Ming couldn't help but laugh when he thought of this.

The auction of the magic capital was held in the conference hall of the Furama Hotel, although it was not a large-scale auction, but it can also be called a small and medium-sized auction, Zhao Ming, as the appraiser of Babao Zhai, naturally came with Sun Dade, the owner of Babao Zhai, in addition to auctioning the jade seeds obtained from gambling stones in Myanmar before, it is more important to enhance the popularity of Babao Zhai in the magic capital.

Zhao Ming looked at himself in the mirror again, today he was not wearing a casual dress like in the past, but put on a suit and tie, the whole person looked particularly handsome, Zhao Ming showed a sunny and confident smile in the mirror, and then left the bathroom.

As soon as he entered the conference hall on the first floor of the Furama Hotel, Zhao Ming, Boss Sun and Boss Zhao saw a lot of security guards standing there, the auction was about to start, these security guards were even more serious and very cautious, it seems that the antique jade in today's auction must have a great background, Zhao Ming thought in his heart, and looked around.

Inadvertently, he just caught a glimpse of Shen Tianming standing there with a smug face, obviously Shen Tianming also noticed Zhao Ming's gaze, he looked at Zhao Ming with a rampant face, looking imperative.

Today's appearance of Shen Tianming made Zhao Ming a little surprised, but at this moment, it seems that Shen Tianming must have come prepared, but these people around him look like bodyguards, it should be impossible to invite any identification experts from the provincial capital to come over, just when Zhao Ming was puzzled, a white-haired old man in a tunic robe walked towards Shen Tianming accompanied by two bodyguards.

Although Zhao Ming didn't know who it was, he could also judge that the white-haired old man in front of him must be an appraiser with many years of experience.

Most of the objects auctioned in the auction of the magic capital are private collections, as for whether these collections are genuine or fake, all are judged by personal experience, if someone is careless, and the fake is auctioned, then they can only consider themselves unlucky, but most of the auctions are played by rich people, usually for the sake of seeking excitement, but everyone is still holding a fluke mentality, hoping to be able to auction a good collection.

Zhao Ming sat in his seat, waiting for the auction to start, the conference hall of the Furama Hotel can accommodate two thousand people, but this auction is obviously only three or four hundred people, Zhao Ming guessed, the other people may be there in a while.

A few minutes later, several security guards looked at the headphones, their expressions were serious, as if they were saying something, and at this moment an elegant-looking man walked up to the stage, and his voice was particularly magnetic and announced: "The auction starts now, this first collection is from the private collection of the boss of Dongcheng Babaozhai, the glass bottle, according to Boss Sun, he likes this collection very much, and now ask the etiquette lady to bring the glass bottle to the stage." ”

While speaking, a lady dressed in an elegant cheongsam took the glass bottle collected by Sun Dade, the owner of Babao Zhai, Zhao Ming's eyes were full of surprise, in Babao Zhai, Boss Sun and Master Wang once said that although this Qing Dynasty glass bottle is beautiful, but it is a high imitation, to put it bluntly, it is a fake, Zhao Ming really doesn't understand why he put this high imitation of the Qing Dynasty glass bottle on the auction.

However, Zhao Ming is not stupid, he has participated in many auctions and appraisals, Zhao Ming already knows the routine, since Boss Sun and the people in the auction house have arranged it like this, there must be a reason for such an arrangement, and let's take a look at it first.

The glass bottle was held to the stage by the beautiful lady of etiquette, and in an instant, the auction scene immediately became unusually quiet, and everyone's eyes almost fell on the glass bottle on the stage.

The glazed flower bottle in Babao Zhai was placed on the stage at the moment, and after a short silence, the people in the audience who participated in the auction instantly whispered.

Zhao Ming looked around, only to find that there were three or four hundred people present at the auction, and there were several elegantly dressed middle-aged ladies sitting in the back rows, obviously also coming to the auction of the magic capital.

"The starting price of this collection is 200,000 yuan, and interested parties can participate in the auction, and the price increase shall not be less than 5,000 each time! The elegant and handsome host said with a smile.

Many people who don't know how to do it see that this high-imitation Qing Dynasty glazed flower bottle looks pretty good, and they are a little nervous, at this time, the white-haired old man next to Shen Tianming stepped forward with a smile, and Shen Tianming also followed behind the white-haired old man and walked towards the marble platform in front.

Zhao Ming sat in the front row, and he could clearly see that the high-imitation Qing Dynasty glazed flower bottle was quietly placed in the red velvet box at the moment.

"Elder Zhang, you must take a good look at it for me, I want to give away this glass bottle!" Shen Tianming instructed Elder Zhang next to him.

Everyone who knows the industry knows that this old man must be the one invited by Shen Tianming to help identify the authenticity of the antiques at the auction, and Shen Tianming looked anxious at this time, and it seems that he is very fond of this glass bottle.

Old man Zhang touched the Qing Dynasty glazed flower bottle on the table, carefully held it in his hand and looked at it for a long time, and said with a smile: "If Shen Gongzi likes it, it is also good to put it at home as a vase ornament, as long as you like it, then it is good......"

The antique appraisal expert invited by Shen Tianming from the provincial capital is still very smart, and after careful observation for a long time, it is obvious that he has found that this glass bottle of the Qing Dynasty is a high-imitation fake, although it is not as good as the real thing, but the ornamental value is still there.

Shen Tianming happily returned to his position with Zhang Lao, it seemed that he was going to auction this antique, just when Zhao Ming was a little stunned, the host smiled and said: "I don't know what the price given by Shen Gongzi is, it is easy to report it, so that this first round of bidding can go smoothly, please!"

"300,000" Shen Tianming said loudly, for Shen Tianming, this 300,000 is a trivial meaning at all, as long as he can make a Pomeranian smile, let alone say 300,000! What about 3 million! Anyway, he recently fell in love with a little girl, and the two have been dating recently, Shen Tianming can be regarded as borrowing flowers to offer Buddha.
