Chapter 043: Bidding
The order of the auction is miscellaneous, jade, porcelain, and then calligraphy and painting.
It was the first time Jia Yidao felt this kind of atmosphere. There were a lot of people sitting in the auction hall, many wealthy merchants and collectors, who didn't even blink their eyes when they held up the signs, as if the money they squandered was not money. The price shouted out of the auctioneer's mouth was also rising. Not to mention those things that Jia Nidao looked at before and felt quite interested, such as some exquisite lacquerware, a box containing rouge or food or something, which has a very antique taste, and the price makes Jia Nidao dumbfounded, that is, some things that he doesn't care much about, and the trend of jumping prices that shows it also makes Jia Nidao feel a little dazzling.
At this moment, I'm afraid that the huge display, the series of chaotic numbers on it, are a little scared Jia Yidao.
I really don't know that the rich people in society are so interested in chasing antiques. Of course, Ah San also said that there are some real collectors who can come to the auction because they have their eyes on a certain lot in advance. Especially for collectors like some specialists, it is not easy to come across something they like.
Jia Rudao looked at Ah San and Ah Li, it seemed that his group of people, in such a place, could be regarded as a number. If you really want to make a move, you don't have that strength. However, Yanran's expression is relatively quiet, and since the auction began, the brand in her hand has not been touched much.
"Ah San, do you say that Yan Ran also took a fancy to something, because the deposit was not enough, so she deliberately took Qing Qianlong's white jade ju pattern Ruyi out for auction?" Jia Yidao asked Ah San in a low voice.
"No way. Ah San glanced at Jia Nidao and found that Yan Ran's attention seemed to be focused on the lot on the stage, so he leaned into Jia Nidao's ear and said, "I heard Ah Li say that Yan Ran is preparing money to gamble on stones." I don't know the specifics, but the possibility of what Ali said is still relatively large. For gambling stones, in the past, Yanran was studying theoretically, and this summer, it is possible to go on a field trip. ”
"Summer vacation?" Jia Rudao hadn't heard this word for a long time, and when he looked back, it was almost the end of June, and it was really summer vacation. However, even so, Jia Yidao was still very surprised that Ah San, who had graduated for a few years, would come out of his mouth with such a word.
"Hehe, you don't know yet. Ah San saw what Jia Yidao was thinking, and said with a smile, "I can tell you, Yanran's profession is a lecturer in a university." As he spoke, he ignored Jia Yidao's surprise and paid attention to the ongoing auction.
Speaking of Yan Ran, in Ah San's eyes, Jia Rudao is still a competitor, and it is not bad to be able to tell some information about Yan Ran in private. However, Ah San's slightly exaggerated expression still made Jia Yidao smile bitterly in his heart.
By this time, the auction of jade had already begun.
Jia Rudao couldn't help but put aside the doubts in his heart for the time being, Yanran, as a university lecturer, was also full of interest in gambling stones, could it be that gambling stones have become popular in universities now?
No matter what Yan Ran taught, in the gambling stone line, at least there are still some real talents to learn, far better than his three-legged cat's kung fu.
When he looked at Yan Ran again at this time, Jia Yidao felt that what kind of expression would that quiet face look like when the gambling rose or fell?
For the lots at the auction, Jia Rudao paid attention to a jasper green cow relief, which was not as big as a palm, and the appearance was vivid and quite simple. In the exhibition hall, Jia Rudao used a strong flashlight to see it, the jade quality is relatively good, there are few impurities, and it rarely contains white cotton or anything, and I like it very much. However, before he could think about it, the price had already jumped to more than 800,000 yuan, and Jia Rudao could only sigh and stop talking.
At this point, Jia Rudao understood what Old Man Wei said, 'seeing is owning'. After all, there are so many good things in this world that it's not realistic to want to put them all in your pocket.
At the same time, Jia Rudao also cherished the five offerings of the Qing Palace in his hands. It's not Jia Yidao who is making a move, or millions of dollars, and he is not moved. Once upon a time, Jia Yidao's first thought was to give the porcelain to his hand and exchange it for banknotes to store.
As for the buyer's words, let Ah San contact him, this ability is still there.
However, with the growth of knowledge, Jia Rudao also knows that some people, even if they have been in the antique market for a lifetime, will rarely encounter such leaks. Not to mention staying as a souvenir, even the preciousness of the porcelain itself is enough to make Jia Nidao, who has made up his mind to enter this industry, keep an eye on it.
Whether it's communication or fame, it's better to have something in your hand and you can get it in person, and you have it in person, than to have millions of money in your hand.
When it was the turn of the auction of Yanran's jade Ruyi, it was already the end of the jade auction.
There is no need for the auctioneer to introduce anything, the following bidding is extremely fierce, for a while, the auction will be stormy, the atmosphere is tense and enthusiastic, and finally, a middle-aged man who looks more wealthy will fight continuously and win at a price of 2.2 million. I could see that Jia Rudao's heart was pounding.
This is still Yanran's thing shooting, if it is replaced by Jia Nidao's own, it is estimated that Jia Nidao pondered that it would be better not to be there in person.
"Why, I feel nervous and out of breath just this time?" Ah San seemed quite calm.
"Xiao Jia, don't listen to Ah San talking cool here. Ali smiled and said, "When Ah San participated in such an auction for the first time, his performance was not as good as you." ”
"I said, Ali, we've known each other for so many years, so why don't you save me some face. Ah San was suddenly a little embarrassed, smiled wryly, and said to Zhou Li, "Keep revealing my bottom, this habit is not good." ”
"I'm trying to make it easier for others to recognize your true face, what, no?" Zhou Li glanced at Ah San, and looked at Yan Ran on the side intentionally or unintentionally. It was Yanran's bright smile, which made Ah San's originally depressed and angry face suddenly become much gentler.
As for the next porcelain auction, it is naturally the focus of the whole auction. Jia Rudao was full of interest, and Ah San couldn't take his eyes off it, only Ah Li and Yan Ran were interested, but they lacked interest. When it came to the final painting and calligraphy, Ali proposed that she could leave, and although Jia Rudao was a little reluctant, she also went out of the auction hall with the three of them.
On the way back, Jia Rudao was still muttering, why didn't you watch the auction of calligraphy and paintings?
