Chapter 410: Ten Million or Twenty Million
"What do you think, if Xie Lao directly took out tens of millions of jade jewelry to participate in the 'Doubao', needless to say, everyone also knows that this thing does not belong to his grandson Xie Chong's own things, right?" Yang Fan said, "And such a Maitreya Buddha in front of me, although I am not very sure, whether it is the grandson of Old Man Xie and the work of Xie Chong, it does not prevent me from guessing in this direction!"
"That's right!" Ah San chimed in on the side, "If I were Old Man Xie, I wouldn't have said it, and I wouldn't have taken my best things." ”
"It seems that you two are more like roundworms in Old Man Xie's stomach. Jia Rudao said with a smile, "What's the matter, don't you also hope that in the future, your son and grandson can marry back a daughter-in-law like Miss Yang?"
"That's for sure. Ah San generously admitted and said, "If my son doesn't marry a beautiful daughter-in-law back, I will break his legs!"
And the people at the scene, as Jia Yidao and Ah San guessed, looked at Xie Chong with great satisfaction, and even admired a lot when they looked at Old Man Xie. At least, Old Man Xie's frankness and Xie Chong's steadiness are very impressive at this moment.
Even Old Man Yang, the protagonist of the birthday banquet, looked at Xie Chong's gaze at this time, and he was full of a bit of ambiguity. Perhaps, at this time, only Yang Siyi, when he glanced at Xie Zhong, there was a little more helplessness in his eyes. In any case, the effect created by Xie Chong and Old Man Xie teaming up has basically met expectations.
Jia Rudao only needs to look at it a little, and the faces of the rest of the young heroes who participated in the "Doubao" link can understand.
More often, these young heroes are still looking at Yang Siyi, and they are still paying attention to the changes in Old Man Yang's expression, right?
Jia Yidao would not think that among these young people present, only Xie Chong's elder could have a relationship with Old Man Yang. After seeing what Old Man Xie did, the whispers that gradually began to flood in private can explain this perfectly.
And the presiding master of ceremonies, after interpreting the purpose of Old Man Xie's bid, began to shout again: "Everyone, please be quiet, be quiet." Tonight's Old Man Yang's birthday banquet 'Doubao' project is extraordinarily exciting, and everyone has just seen what a real spend. Especially in order to make a good impression on his grandson in front of Old Man Yang, Old Man Xie directly bid 9.8 million yuan, which is really very generous. ”
As soon as he said that, the young people who were originally a little envious of Xie Zhong also relieved themselves at this time.
Also, it has become a ready-made fact, and it will not help to be jealous here. Instead of giving Yang Siyi an impetuous and cautious image at this time, it is better to be generous and wait for the ending of the "Doubao" activity. In this way, if Yang Siyi notices it, it can also leave a good impression on the beauty.
"Still, for what happened just now. Old Man Xie's bid, as his old man said, is reasonable. The presiding master of ceremonies said, "And below, the one I want to interview, his bid, is really beyond my expectations. Don't say it's me, I'm afraid that none of you here would have thought of the price he offered beforehand, right?"
"Who said that, I thought about it, but I knew he was going to bid from the beginning. It seems that what the host of ceremonies said is a bit too absolute, and at this time, there are still loud interruptions underneath. When he said it, it naturally provoked a good-natured laugh.
The host of ceremonies didn't care, and said happily: "It seems that there are really friends who have predicted in advance." However, I'm curious, since you can guess that Mr. Jia will make a bid to participate in the auction, can you also guess why he will make a very strange price?"
"Well, I really don't know......" was still the same voice, but, obviously, this time it was a few keys lower than the first.
The laughter of the crowd only added a few points.
"Good thing you don't. The host of ceremonies patted his head at this time, looked worried and afraid, and said, "If you even know this, then I'll just go and interview you directly...... No, you should just look for the lottery numbers you want for the next draw......"
While speaking, the presiding master of ceremonies also walked towards the location where Jia Nidao was, and when he got close to a certain distance, the presiding master of ceremonies began to speak: "Mr. Jia, please sit, please sit ......"
Xu saw Jia Rudao and was about to stand up. The host of ceremonies generously signaled that Jia Nidao could sit and answer, but Jia Nidao stood up politely, you know, just now, Old Man Xie stood up. Young people like Jia Yidao should pay more attention to etiquette.
Soon, the microphone of the host of ceremonies was handed to Jia Yidao, and he said, "I'm very curious, why are you bidding for your treasures at this time?"
"I guess that's what I thought for a while. Jia Rudao said thoughtfully.
"What do you think for a while?" the host of ceremonies obviously looked a little surprised, and then rolled his eyes, and said, "Can I understand that you are facing your own Tian Huangshi seal, and you only sold for more than nine million yuan, and you feel dissatisfied? However, this is not right." ”
If Jia Nidao is really dissatisfied with the auction price, then Jia Nidao should suddenly increase more when he increases the price. After all, before Jia Yidao, the price of this Tian Huangshi seal had just passed the threshold of 9.5 million yuan, reaching the price of 9.58 million yuan. And the price offered by Jia Yidao is only 9.6 million, which is only an increase of 20,000 yuan.
More importantly, the price of 9.6 million yuan is still quite a gap compared to the 9.8 million jade Buddha carving that Xie Lao bid. If the "Doubao" activity ends in the current situation, Jia Rudao still can't get a gold award, but can only win a silver award!
However, even if Jia seems to have raised the price, he will still win the silver award. So, is it necessary for Jia Yidao to participate in the auction process for the silver award?
This question is not only not understood by the host of ceremonies, but also by many people present.
For a while, after the host of ceremonies asked, I don't know how many people were looking at Jia Yidao at this time. If it weren't for Jia Rudao, who had experienced a lot of things in the past half a year, and his psychological quality had been exercised very well, I am afraid that at this time, just for the attention of so many people, he would have revealed a little timidity.
"Hehe......" Jia Rudao smiled faintly before continuing, "I do feel a little regretful that I only sold for more than 9.5 million yuan!"
"But......" the host of ceremonies was surprised and wanted to ask.
Jia Rudao stretched out his hand and signaled, indicating that he would definitely continue to explain, and the words of the host of ceremonies were suddenly suppressed, as if he had eaten a fly, and the expression on his face looked a little ugly at that moment. However, compared to the answer that Jia Rudao was about to explain, the presiding emcee's expression became expectant again.
"Do you want to ask, since I'm not very satisfied with this price, why did I only add 20,000 yuan, right?" Jia Rudao said while looking at the expression of the host of ceremonies, seeing the other party nodding, the smile on the corner of Jia Rudao's mouth seemed to be a little thicker, and said, "Actually, this is mainly because Old Man Xie made the first move, I can't refute other people's intentions, right?"
"Oh?" the presiding master of ceremonies was interested at this time, and said, "This is still related to Old Man Xie?"
"That's it. As if to make his explanation more reasonable and well-founded, Jia Yidao nodded affirmatively, and then looked at Old Man Xie's side, at this time, Old Xie's eyes were also slightly curious, and even with it, even Old Man Yang, Yang Siyi and others also looked at Jia Yidao in surprise.
"I'm a little dissatisfied with what I'm bidding for. But, after all, it's just my own business, isn't it?" Jia Rudao said, "If it affects other people because of my own affairs, I naturally don't want to." Therefore, after Mr. Xie's decisive bid, I followed the bottom line of the bid, that is, I couldn't exceed Mr. Xie's price. ”
In this way, it can be regarded as an explanation of why Jia Rudao only added 20,000 yuan.
"So, is Mr. Jia dissatisfied with me?" Old Man Xie was smiling, but an old man on the side stood up and asked Jia Yidao with some anger.
"This is Mr. Zhang, and he is the one who bid for 9.58 million yuan for your piece of Tianhuangshi Great Seal. Yang Fan hurriedly whispered to Jia Yidao's side and reminded him.
Jia Nidao smiled gratefully at Yang Fan, although this situation was also expected by Jia Nidao, after all, Jia Nidao's explanation would not offend people like Xie Lao and Old Man Yang, that is for sure, otherwise, Jia Nidao probably would not be prepared to make such a statement. However, for those who also took a fancy to Tian Huangshi's seal, it was tantamount to a slap in the face.
It seems that the price of 9.58 million yuan not only does not reflect people's liking for Tian Huangshi's big seal, but it seems to be insulting such a big seal. Fortunately, Jia Nidao was also prepared for this, and his eyes glanced slightly at Liu Lao, who was looking at him expectantly over there, Jia Rudao took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Zhang, I didn't mean to get along with you. To be honest, you can take a fancy to this Tianhuangshi seal, and when you apply for the card, you have survived all the way to the price of 9.58 million, which is already a bit unexpected to me. In my heart, I estimate that such a Tianhuangshi Great Seal can have a price of about eight million, which is already the limit. ”
"That, Mr. Jia, what you said seems to be a little inconsistent. Zhang Lao over there seemed to be pondering the credibility of Jia Nidao's words, and the presiding master of ceremonies would not let Jia Nidao go. It seems that the whole "Doubao" activity, as long as it has something to do with Jia Nidao, there will always be some unexpected things.
For example, at the time of the first "offering treasure", Jia Rudao would take out a plain mud inkstone, and then, he smashed out a Tianhuangshi seal from the mud inkstone, and when explaining, Liu Lao testified that this thing is likely to be an imperial seal of the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, and even when it came to the final auction of the card, Jia Rudao actually made an additional price for his treasure.
Although all these behaviors made the host of ceremonies feel a little numb and a bit tricky to deal with, it was enough to show that the appearance of Jia Yidao was the highlight of this "Doubao" activity.
As long as Jia Rudao can justify himself well in the next few questions and does not leave any bad handles, the host of ceremonies can be completely sure that no matter who won the gold and silver awards in this "Doubao" activity. The biggest beneficiary is none other than Jia Nidao in front of him!
"It's not a contradiction. At the moment when the host of ceremonies was a little distracted, Jia Rudao replied, "How to say it, if this Tianhuangshi seal has no historical value, and only relies on its materials to confirm its value, ** million is indeed not an insult to it." ”
"Definitely. At this time, the host of ceremonies also took care of Jia Yidao, and said with some agreement, "Such a piece of Tianhuang stone, according to its size, is indeed relatively rare, plus the carving process and the like, it can reach a ** million, which is really a very good result." Everyone here, in terms of the price of Tian Huangshi, many of them are experts, presumably no one will deny this, right?"
Speaking of this, the host of ceremonies also looked around the scene, and saw that there were many jewelry and jade lovers, and they couldn't help nodding, and then said to Jia Rudao: "And, Mr. Jia, if you don't bid yourself just now, nine million five hundred and fifty million, and the bonus of the silver award that can be obtained soon, these two add up, but it can almost reach the price of 10 million, is this not worth your Tian Huangshi seal?"
"Ten million?" Jia Rudao stretched out two fingers with a somewhat indifferent expression, and said, "Liu Lao also said just now, if this Tianhuangshi seal belongs to the imperial seal of Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, the price of 10 million is just the price of missing out." ”
"Mr. Jia, do you really think that this thing belongs to the seal of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, right?"
At the same time, many people present also looked at Jia Yidao with strange expressions.
If at the very beginning, Liu Lao proposed that this Tianhuangshi seal must be the imperial seal of Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty or just a gimmick, then, at this time, Jia Rudao himself also said it so unabashedly, and also made his own move to participate in the newspaper card, which is a little evocative.
In the whole scene, except for the eyes of Old Man Liu looking at Jia Nidao and having a little praise, it was Ah San and Yang Fan, looking at Jia Nidao's expression, which also showed a bit of weirdness.
Yang Fan was sighing, Jia Rudao's courage was really big. At this time, not only can he talk in the face of everyone's curiosity, but he can also grasp Old Man Liu's previous random guess to extend, no matter what the result is, Jia Yidao can be regarded as the highlight of the entire birthday banquet. However, then I thought about it, if this seal was really the emperor's seal, the price of 10 million was really a little too low.
Perhaps, among the people present, there are many people who have the same idea as Yang Fan, right?
But Ah San's mood is not as unbearable as it appears on the surface. There must be an element of surprise, more of it, but after glancing at Jia Yidao, he looked at Tian Huangshi Dayin with his curious gaze. If Old Man Liu's judgment only made Ah San feel that this Tian Huangshi Great Seal was an imperial seal, which was only a possibility, then Jia Yidao's words were like opening a door in his thinking, which made Ah San's thoughts begin to become imaginary in an instant.
Unlike most of the people present, Ah San was a connoisseur of jade jewelry, and his eye was more focused on identifying porcelain. To put it bluntly, if it is in the appraisal of antiques, Ah San will not necessarily be worse than the older generation of people like Mr. Liu and Mr. Yang who have deep attainments in jade.
For the identification of the quality of Tian Huangshi, Ah San naturally doesn't understand. However, I am very familiar with some porcelain of the Qing Dynasty, or the style of some antiques related to porcelain. In the previous time, because the distance from the Tianhuangshi Great Seal was a bit far, and the things belonged to Jia Nidao, Ah San didn't take it so seriously. Even when someone reported that the price reached more than 9 million, Ah San has always looked at such a Tianhuangshi seal with the eyes of the jade industry.
Even when Yang Fan was amazed at the price, Ah San used the value of jadeite he knew to explain.
At this time, looking at the Tian Huangshi seal on the display platform, faintly looking at the beastly carving style, and then feeling the classical and elegant temperament exuded by the entire big seal, Ah San frowned.
It's not that he thinks what Jia Rudao said is wrong. On the contrary, Ah San recognized Jia Rudao's judgment even more. In this way, if this Tian Huangshi Great Seal is taken away by Old Man Zhang, it will be a great loss for both Jia Yidao and Ah San.
The whole scene was unprecedentedly quiet!
Some were paying attention to Jia Yidao, and some were looking at the Tian Huangshi Great Seal, and many elderly people who were quite prestigious among the people stood up at this time, walked to the side of the Tian Huangshi Great Seal, and carefully identified it. Of course, judging from their expressions, everyone can't see the reason at all. These old people are all people who have been in the mall all their lives.
If they could find some clues in the change in their expressions, they would not be worthy of sitting on the seat of Old Man Yang's birthday banquet so grandly. In Jia Yidao's opinion, even these old people have checked carefully, and it is still very difficult for them to come to a conclusion immediately.
It may be possible to conclude that the thing came from the Qing Dynasty, but it is difficult to determine whether it belongs to the imperial seal of Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty.
This also led to the curiosity of everyone on the scene, and it was once raised to a peak!
The host of ceremonies looked at Old Man Yang a little overwhelmed, with an inquiring look, and after seeing the old man nodding, he supported the master of ceremonies and said to Jia Rudao: "Mr. Jia, generally speaking, according to the regulations of 'Doubao', you can't quit halfway. If you have to withdraw, you must obtain the consent of the buyer who has reached the highest price for your treasure, that is, Mr. Zhang's consent. ”
Speaking of which, the host of ceremonies first looked at Mr. Zhang. Then, before Jia Yidao spoke, he said, "Of course, because this time the situation is a little different." Mr. Jia, when you were fighting for treasure just now, you had already given yourself a price for your treasure, and this price was still over Mr. Zhang's report, so if you follow the procedure, that is, you have the final say. ”
Hearing this, Jia Rudao was secretly happy in his heart. To put it bluntly, it's not just my actions just now that I got myself off to a good start.
"But you know, it's your own. The host of ceremonies looked at Jia Rudao and said. "Even if you pay a high price, you can't say that the final decision is up to you. ”
"Uh......" Jia Rudao didn't know what to say for a while.
At such an instant, Jia Yidao's eyes naturally glanced at the owner of the No. 9 pink diamond of the "Doubao" activity, as well as Old Man Xie and Xie Chong. The meaning of Jia Yidao's actions is obvious, and it seems that in essence, those people are obviously the ones who have registered their own things, right?
