Chapter 16: The Unexpected

The auction was about to start, and the entire auction house became lively, and Lin Han also found a seat in the last row of the venue.

Sitting in the second seat near the aisle, there was no one on either side, he looked at the bidding card in his hand and felt a little speechless.

I saw that the bidding board read: 250.

"Why did you get me such a number? Lin Han shook his head, casually put the bidding card on the seat on the side, and left it alone.

Not long ago, Boss Wang gave up participating in this auction because of something suddenly, and chatted with Lin Han casually before leaving, and helped him get a bidding card on a whim, saying that it was to let him feel the atmosphere of the auction.

As a result, Lin Han got the No. 250 bidding card.

As soon as he put the bidding sign on the side of the seat, there was a conversation not far behind him, and the voices seemed to be a man and a woman.

"Xiao Lin, I still have something to do, you can take a look here for yourself, go back early, don't let your grandfather worry." It was the voice of a middle-aged man.

This was followed by a crisp young female voice: "Don't worry, I'll go home as soon as the auction is over." ”

"Then I'll go first. ”

"Second uncle, goodbye~"

Then, a tall long-haired beauty walked a few steps to the seat next to Lin Han and asked with a smile, "Is there anyone here?"

Lin Han hurriedly took his No. 250 bidding card: "No one, please take a seat." ”

"Thank you. The beauty immediately sat next to Lin Han, next to the aisle.

A faint fragrance hit, Lin Han looked at her long silky hair, and couldn't help but feel a slight ripple in his heart.

"Are you here for the auction too?" asked the beautiful woman as she turned her head.

"Ah, sort of. Lin Han hurriedly sat upright.

"What do you think of this auction house?"

Lin Han didn't understand either, so he said vaguely: "It's okay." ”

These two answers are obviously very unnutritious, so there is no then.

"Everyone, be quiet, the auction will start now!" At this time, the auctioneer had already walked to the stage, and the people in the hall fell silent.

"The first piece in this auction is a calligraphy work by Mr. Qi Gong, which has been identified by many people and confirmed to be genuine. ”

As soon as these words came out, the whole venue immediately burst into discussions.

"The first auction item is the original work of Mr. Qigong?"

"Looks like the auction is good. ”

"Mr. Qigong's genuine handiwork is said to have risen to 200,000 square feet now. ”

"I ...... at the beginning"

......

Hearing that it was the true work of Qigong, Lin Han also felt a little surprised. Qi Gong is a rare master of calligraphy in modern times, with remarkable achievements and high morality. As far as he knows, in the capital, there are many colleges and universities whose names use Qigong's calligraphy.

About Qi Gong, he also read a small story.

said that Qi Gong went to a restaurant to eat, and the waiter recognized him, and after arranging for him to sit down, he said respectfully: Please sir, you can order.

Qi Gong ordered a few dishes, but the waiter said: I don't understand what you said, please write it down. After speaking, he respectfully put the paper and pen in front of Mr. Qigong.

Qi Gong knew his intentions, but he did not refuse, but readily agreed, and smiled and picked up the pen to write down the name of the dish he ordered. At the end, he inscribed his own inscription and said jokingly: Now Qigong is also a dish.

In the expectant gaze of everyone, the white-gloved staff took out a scroll, carefully unfolded it, and then showed it to everyone.

I saw two lines of poetry written on the scroll: Baolu Spring Hanzhi Garden, and the clouds and clouds protect the jade steps.

Fourteen words are calm and old, and they are free to collect and release, and the place where they are paid is the word Qigong.

"The low price is 300,000, and the price increase is not less than 10,000 each time. ”

"Three hundred and fifty thousand!" As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, someone immediately raised a sign.

"Three hundred and eighty thousand!"

"Three hundred and ninety-thousand!"

"Four hundred thousand!"

......

In the end, the painting was bought for a high price of 480,000 yuan, igniting the warm atmosphere of the whole auction.

Lin Han wanted to try it at first, but when he heard the reserve price, he could only sigh with admiration: "It seems that if you don't have a family background, don't just collect it." ”

At this moment, the staff took out a severely corroded piece of iron and showed it to everyone. Seeing this, Lin Han couldn't help but cheer up.

"According to the appraisal of the master of this auction house, this is a Danshu iron coupon in the Guangxu period, due to serious damage, the reserve price is now 100,000, and the price increase is not less than 5,000 each time. ”

"Danshu Iron Coupons, this is a rare thing!"

"But it's all rusted like this, what's the use. ”

......

Half a day passed, and no one participated in the bidding, which made Lin Han feel a little embarrassed.

The auctioneer on the stage was also a little embarrassed: "Does anyone want to bid?"

"One hundred thousand and five thousand. "Someone is holding up a sign.

The auctioneer's eyes lit up: "Okay, one hundred and five thousand! Is there anything higher?"

"One hundred and ten thousand. ”

"110,000! Is there a higher price?" said the auctioneer, holding a mallet in one hand.

"110,000, once. ”

"Eleven thousand, twice. ”

"110,000, deal!"

In the end, this badly damaged Danshu iron coupon was auctioned off at a price of 110,000 yuan.

Although Boss Wang had warned them in advance, in the end they only sold for 110,000 yuan, which still made Lin Han a little disappointed.

But no matter what, 110,000 is already a lot, and compared to the cost of digging treasure, Lin Han still makes a lot of money.

The next few auction items, most of which are mediocre, with prices ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, like the original Qigong at the beginning, have not yet appeared for a while.

At this time, the staff took out a delicate and small gold lock, and the auctioneer said: "Small gold lock, an item from the late Qing Dynasty." According to the value of gold of 48,000 yuan, the current reserve price is 50,000 yuan, and the price increase is not less than 2,000 each time. ”

"What is this thing for? It's weird. ”

"It's pretty to look at. ”

As soon as this golden lock was revealed, many people showed curious looks.

Even the long-haired beauty beside Lin Han seemed to suddenly become interested, and leaned forward.

"Fifty-two thousand. "Someone held up a sign to make a price.

"Fifty-five thousand. ”

"Sixty thousand!"

"Sixty-five thousand dollars!"

......

To Lin Han's surprise, this seemingly ordinary golden lock seems to have aroused a strong interest in many people, although the price is always not high, but there are very many people holding cards, and the atmosphere is lively.

"One hundred thousand. ”

At this moment, a wealthy middle-aged man wearing sunglasses raised a sign to meet the price, making the venue instantly quiet.

"Ren Dajiang!" many people recognized him immediately.

"Since Mr. Ren wants it, let's stop fighting. ”

"It's just a little golden lock......

Ren Dajiang raised his cards, and everyone stopped bidding. The auctioneer was also very amuseful and stopped asking the price, and took the gavel and said, "One hundred thousand, one time." ”

"One hundred thousand, twice. ”

"100,000, ......"

"I'll give 200,000!"
