Chapter 151: The Treasure of Luck, Suppress Luck!
You know, this is the first lot!
And the price has been detached from the true value of the item!
Just when Wang Zhong was about to raise the card, Mary held Wang Zhong's hand and shook her head firmly, her eyes full of happiness!
This price has been detached from the value of the object itself, and he decisively gave up!
The white man was relieved to see that Wang Zhong was not holding up the card!
Sapphires are getting rarer and rarer, so every sapphire is incomparably precious to the Holy See!
"The second lot is a pair of thangkas, also known as thang-ga, a Tibetan transliteration of a religious scroll that is framed in colored satin and hung for worship. Thangka is a unique art form of painting in Tibetan culture, and the subject matter involves many fields such as Tibetan history, politics, culture and social life.
This work is a Tibetan Buddhist thangka during the Guge Dynasty, which is very rare and precious!"
"The Guge Kingdom is located at the westernmost tip of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, with the Zada Xiangquan River (Langchen Zangpo in Tibetan) basin as its ruling center, reaching Japan and Turkey in the north, as far north as the Snowu Mountains in present-day Kashmir, India in the south, Ladakh (present-day Indian-occupied Kashmir) in the west, and its sphere of influence in the easternmost area once reached the foothills of the Gangdis Mountains.
The royal family of the Guge Kingdom is a descendant of the Tibetan Zampu (that is, "king" in Chinese). Therefore, the source of the history of the Guge Kingdom must be traced back to the late period of the Tubo Dynasty.
This thangka is a treasure of the Guge Dynasty, the Torin Temple!"
The auctioneer worked hard to introduce the origin of the thangka, as well as the craftsmanship of making zuò, as well as the precious process dù!
But the response was not very enthusiastic!
After all, the value of thangkas is very large, and Cheng dù stems from religion!
It is difficult for Europeans who believe in Jesus to identify with Him!
"The Guge dynasty was established in the 10th century AD. It has a history of more than 800 years. This thangka is a work of the early Guge Dynasty, and it may also be a treasure from Tianzhu, at least 600 years old, and it is really rare to be in such good condition!"
Mary's mouth was wide open. Said with a shocked face.
Wang Zhong did not answer Mary, he looked at the thangka in front of him in disbelief, and the Buddha in it was exactly the same as the one he had seen in Dingzhong.
The whole body is emerald green, which is the color of the business department of Lamaism, that is, the color of the body of the Buddha who is not empty. One side and two arms, with a beautiful face. Twenty-eight years old, slender figure, beautiful appearance. Wearing a crown of five Buddhas, his body radiates rainbow light, and he wears all kinds of jewelry. Dressed in various colors of heavenly clothes and heavy skirts, his image is luxurious and beautiful, kind and solemn.
Wang Zhong also knew his name for the first time!
Green Tara!
Green Tara is said to be the incarnation of Avalokiteshvara in Lamaism. Tara, the Sanskrit name tara, the full name of the Holy Salvation Buddha, in ancient China called Tara Bodhisattva, Tara Guanyin, Tara has many different manifestations. There are 21 Taras, 500 Hundred Degrees, etc., all of which are incarnations of Avalokiteshvara, and Green Tara is the main deity of all Tara. Taking all the merits of the other 20 incarnations, she can save eight kinds of suffering, such as lion difficulty, elephant difficulty, snake disaster, water disaster, prison disaster, thief disaster, and inhuman difficulty, also known as "saving the mother of eight difficulties". At the same time, it can also transform the "doubts" in human behavior, such as greed, hatred, ignorance, slowness, and doubt, which are called the five poisons, into the wisdom of ultimate perfection, and have the merit of protecting women, women, and children. The mantra of the deity has the function of increasing the heart and punishment of the heart. Eliminate the troubles and pains of sentient beings, satisfy the wishes of sentient beings, be rich and long-lived, safe and auspicious, remove all diseases, suffering, karma and obstacles, etc. Help sentient beings to free themselves from the suffering of life and death, and live in the Elysium for the rest of their lives. Attaining ultimate happiness is also known as "Saving the Swift Mother" because of its swiftness of salvation and the courage of destroying the demonic karma.
"$100,000!"
Wang Zhong raised the bidding sign without any hesitation.
"$200,000!"
"$300,000!" ......
"$1,000,000!"
Wang Zhong raised the bidding card in his hand again.
Everyone shook their heads and gave up in Wang Zhong's crazy price increase, but only a thin, tall, black-haired Western man kept chasing after him!
Wang Zhong glanced at it with the rest of his eyes, I don't know why, Wang Zhong always had a feeling of déjà vu!
"2 million!"
Wang Zhong saw that the young man had no intention of giving up, and directly raised the price to 2 million US dollars!
This price is absolutely sky-high!
If it weren't for the feeling that Wang Zhong would not have traded at such a high price!
The people around looked at Wang Zhong with foolish eyes!
This price is already dozens of times more than the real price!
It's definitely a loss-making investment!
"2 million!"
"2 million!"
"2 million!"
"Is there any price increase?"
The auctioneer shouted excitedly, this price was beyond everyone's expectations. The auction scene also entered a hot state in advance because of the bidding of Wang Zhong and Westerners!
"2,000,000 for the first time!"
There is a look of hesitation and struggle in the eyes of young people in the West!
"2,000,000 for the second time!"
"2,000,000 for the third time!"
Just as he was about to raise his card, his friend next to him held his hand and shook his head firmly.
"2 million deals!"
Just when the two were arguing, the gavel in the auctioneer's hand fell, which also indicated that Wang Zhong had harvested the first lot of the day!
Although the price is a bit on the high side!
But Wang Zhong has a feeling that he will definitely not suffer!
The young man was a little regretful and reluctantly watched as the Green Tara Thangka was taken down......
Wang Zhong watched as one pair of Western artworks after another was auctioned away!
Unlike Westerners, Wang Zhong really doesn't have ** for those abstract oil paintings!
Those distorted lines are like children's graffiti in Wang Zhong's eyes!
Or the traditional strokes are more in line with Wang Zhong's aesthetics!
Wang Zhong looked at these works of art with strong Western characteristics and rarely raised cards, even if they did, they were considered from the perspective of investment, but they had more than value. Wang Zhong will give up decisively!
I unexpectedly took a jade jade bracelet in good condition!
After Wang Zhong handed over, he brought it to Mary on the spot!
It also makes up for the regret of not taking a sapphire!
The auction lasted almost two hours, and the last finale was the finale
The "Qianlong Green Jade Dragon Jade Seal" is the largest of the eight "Qianlong Imperial Treasures" jade seals known so far, with a square printing surface and an area of 11.7 cm x 11.7 cm. It is a green jade quality, three dragon buttons, and 6 characters of "Treasure of Qianlong Imperial Treasure" in Chinese seal book.
Wang Zhong sat there quietly, and the eyes of heaven slowly opened.
I saw that the jade seal was wrapped in a purple dragon qi, and with the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the dragon qi on the jade seal became a source of water. Rootless trees are lost every day!
But just like that, the dragon qi above him is also very impressive!
After all, the Qianlong period was a rare prosperous era in the history of China's feudal dynasty, and in his later years, Qianlong called himself "the perfect old man!"
The dragon formed by purple gas kept tumbling, and from time to time it opened its mouth to let out bursts of dragon groans that ordinary people couldn't hear!
He seemed to have discovered Wang Zhong's peeping!
The closed dragon's eyes opened suddenly. Two rays of purple light shot out.
What kind of eyes are these?
Killing, ruthless, arbitrary, contempt for the common people!
The king let the minister die, and the minister had to die!
I don't know why, Wang Zhong's soul actually felt a tremble!
It's like being targeted by a beast!
Only then did Wang Zhong think of a passage in the Taoist canon:
The emperor of man, the bell of heaven and earth, and the admiration of all people. Luck is brilliant, ten thousand laws are not violated, and it is not something that outsiders can peep into!
Although the monarchs of the past dynasties could not cultivate immortals and attain the Tao. But they have a heavenly constitution in their mouths, they call themselves the sons of heaven, and they have great power in their words and deeds, not to mention cultivators, even if they have attained the Tao and become immortals, they can't hurt them!
This jade seal is a symbol of the human emperor. How can cultivators be allowed to snoop!
Feeling Wang Zhong's gaze, the dragon instinctively counterattacked!
Just when Wang Zhong was terrified. The purple umbrella that his luck turned into slowly rose, and the purple qi hung down one by one. Wrap Wang Zhong's soul!
The dragon qi seemed to see the power of the same origin, and slowly closed his eyes again!
The feeling of fear in Wang Zhong's whole body went with it!
"Boss, are you not feeling well, do you want to go to the hospital?"
Mary looked at Wang Zhong with some worry, Wang Zhong's face suddenly became pale with fear, and sweat kept pouring out.
Mary took a handkerchief and wiped it for Wang Zhong constantly, her eyes full of worry!
"It's okay, I'm fine!"
Wang Zhong let out a long breath, exhaled the depressed breath in his heart, and his spirit was also restored, as if nothing had happened!
Because Wang Zhong was protected by the Purple Umbrella National Fortune, he did not suffer from the backlash of the dragon qi!
Other people who snooped on artifacts weren't so lucky!
The middle-aged man who had just bought the sapphire and was suspected by Wang Zhong of being a member of the church suddenly changed his complexion, and his eyes were full of disbelief and fear!
His mouth opened and closed slightly, his nerves silent, and his hands clutched a crystal studded cross tightly!
Wang Zhong could feel the condensation of holy power, and there was a faint singing of holy songs!
Click!
With a crisp sound, the crystal on the cross suddenly exploded!
The holy power seemed to encounter some irresistible force, and it was instantly shattered and devoured!
Burst!
As if he had suffered some unexpected attack, the middle-aged man suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his body collapsed!
The atmosphere of the venue was suddenly chaotic, and with the help of the security and on-site guests, there was no big chaos!
Looking at the middle-aged man who was carried out like a dead dog, Wang Zhong felt that his back was wet for a while!
It's horrible!
If it weren't for the protection of the purple umbrella, I'm afraid I would be like him!
The power of the Sheji artifact can be seen!
Just when Wang Zhong was secretly rejoicing, the purple umbrella above his head did not disappear as usual, but continued to be wide open!
Wang Zhong can feel the desire of the purple umbrella!
He longed to keep that trace of dragon energy for himself!
It seems that a trace of dragon energy is extremely important to the evolution of the purple umbrella!
With the departure of the Holy See personnel, a boulder in Wang Zhong's heart also landed, although he was rich, he had to compare with whom!
The accumulation of thousands of years of church is not an exaggeration to describe it as a rich country!
If the church really wants to intervene, Wang Zhong's funds may not be able to eat!
After all, there is a precedent for a sapphire to be auctioned for 9 million!
That's several times higher than the actual value!
Feeling the desire of the purple umbrella, Wang Zhong secretly decided in his heart that he would take pictures of the jade seal at any cost!
"Qing Gaozong ** Xinjue Luo Hongli, the sixth emperor of the Qing Dynasty, the fourth emperor after entering the customs. The era name "Qianlong" means "Heavenly Prosperity". He ascended the throne at the age of 25, reigned for 60 years, and served as the emperor for another three years and four months after the Zen throne, and actually exercised the supreme power of the state for 63 years and 4 months, making him the emperor who actually held the supreme power of the state for the longest time in Chinese history and the longest-lived emperor in Chinese history. ”
The auctioneer introduced the origin of the jade seal in English.
"The starting price is $2 million, and each increase must not be less than $100,000!"
"$4 million!"
Wang Zhong raised his card, this time he was very strong, and he doubled it directly, telling other bidders, this jade seal, I am bound to win!
As if forced by Wang Zhong's momentum, the scene suddenly fell silent!
Everyone looked at Wang Zhong in surprise, although Wang Zhong didn't make many shots, but the turnover was very large, and at first glance it was a generous chaebol!
Wang Zhong raised his glass and looked around!
Many people smiled and raised their glasses, then smiled and voluntarily gave up the bid!
"5 million!"
A yellow-skinned Asian raised a bidding sign and added a million to Wang Zhong's base!
"5.1 million!"
A wealthy man dressed in the Middle East also held up a sign.
"5.2 million!"
A European in a suit and leather shoes held up a number plate.
"6 million!"
Wang Zhong did not have a 100,000 addition, but directly raised it to 6 million US dollars, once again showing everyone his financial resources and his determination!
The auction is the most taboo tactic of adding oil, adding a little bit, but it is possible to add a sky-high price!
It's better to scare away the trash fish directly and play a game with the real predators!
"6.1 million!"
The Asian man made another bid, but this time he was very hesitant and only added $100,000!
"7 million!"
Wang Zhong didn't wait for others to bid, and raised the number plate again.
"7.1 million!"
The rich people in the Middle East have added 100,000 tentatively!
"8 million!"
Wang Zhong raised the price to 8 million without any hesitation!
Everyone's mouths were wide open, and they looked at Wang Zhong with a surprised face, such a way of increasing the price is difficult for people to agree with!
Lunatic!
All of them cursed secretly in their hearts.
No one dares to fight the price with a madman, because you don't know what he will do in the next second!
They were shocked by Wang Zhong's madness!
So they retreated!
"8 million for the first time!"
"8 million for the second time!"
"8 million for the third time!"
"Congratulations to your sir, this Fang Yuxi, now he belongs to you!"
The auctioneer said excitedly with an excited face and a voice excited.
The scene suddenly burst into thunderous applause!
Wang Zhong stood up and bowed politely to the surroundings in thanks!
Wang Zhong wore gloves and gently pinched the jade seal with his thumb and index finger, as if he was afraid of accidentally damaging it!
The whole jade seal is carved from a whole piece of cyan jade, with dragon-shaped buttons on it, which looks like a royal thing. The front of the jade seal is engraved with the words "Treasure of Qianlong Imperial Tour"!
The most important thing is that Wang Zhong can feel the supreme dragon qi contained in it!
A trace of purple gas turned into a dragon shape, winding and changing, or soaring, or lurking, or groaning...... This is a treasure of luck!(To be continued) R640
