Chapter 202: The Auction Begins
At this time, the charity auction was about to kick off, and Lin Jing whispered to Huang Xiaolong. "Little Dragon, let's go over. β
Seeing Cui Feiyan holding Huang Xiaolong's arm, with a tender look like water, Lin Jing glanced at Huang Xiaolong meaningfully, and the corners of her mouth were smiling. "Xiaolong, you have a lot of vision. β
However, seeing the intimacy between Huang Xiaolong and Cui Feiyan, Lin Jing felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, she took a deep breath and secretly told herself not to think too much.
The so-called charity auction, as the name suggests, is that the organizer takes out some antique treasures, auctions them on the spot, and the rich businessmen who participate in the auction will bid, and the one with the highest price will win.
The organizers will donate all the money to Hope Primary School, remote mountainous areas, and orphanages.
Huang Xiaolong found a seat at random and sat down, Cui Feiyan sat on his left, and Lin Jing sat on his right, which made him feel a little snuggled and green, left and right.
It's just envy of others!
The guests sat down.
In the middle of the seat, there is a small and gorgeous stage, brightly lit, a young woman dressed beautifully, walking on the stage, standing next to the auction table, holding the microphone in one hand, but picking up the auction hammer with the other hand, slamming it on the table.
The noise around me faded away.
A beautiful young woman with a thousand manners. "Ladies and gentlemen, leaders, guests, friends, good evening! Tonight's auction, Shujia entrusted me to host for you, for this, I feel very honored, I hope to bring you the harvest you want. β
Next, the auctioneer Yang Liu explained some of the rules of the auction according to the book.
And thenβ
"Please pay attention, the first auction item is a green glazed clay pot from the Eastern Han Dynastyββ"
Following the narration of the auctioneer Yang Liu, a young girl dressed in a cheongsam carefully held a silver tray on stage.
She placed the tray on the auction table, and Willow lifted the curtain.
An antique, very old green clay pot is displayed in everyone's sight.
"Look, this pot is 40 centimeters high, 15 centimeters in diameter, and 15 centimeters in foot diameter. The whole body of the pot is glazed with low-temperature lead green, and the glaze is melon skin green. The mouth, neck, and abdomen are all seen as raised string lines......"
After the introduction, there was a girl dressed in a cheongsam and presented a professional appraisal certificate.
"Interested friends, you can come on stage to appreciate. Yang Liu smiled.
Soon, many people from the audience poured up, and Shu Jie, with an eager expression, ran to the stage.
These people put on gloves and walked around the clay pot, touching them lightly with their hands from time to time, looking very professional.
"Xiaolong, do you understand antiques?" Lin Jing smiled slightly, and there was a test expression in his eyes. She knew that Huang Xiaolong was talented and versatile, and at this time, she couldn't help but want to test Huang Xiaolong's attainments in antiques.
Cui Feiyan blurted out. "Miss Lin, Xiaolong missed a genuine painting of Zheng Banqiao in an antique shop this afternoon and sold it for 50 million yuan. β
"Oh, Xiaolong, it's really yours!" Lin Jing's eyes lit up. "You're really talented, why don't you go up and have a look?"
"Sister Jing, I don't have to go up, I have already seen it clearly...... This clay pot is supposed to be a burial object, and the glaze at the turn of the abdomen has been in the ground for a long time, and salt substances have been precipitated in a humid environment, resulting in a slightly silvery-white surface. The thing is a real thing, and the market price should be around 3 million, but there are signs of hairy mouth and artificial glaze, so it is discounted. If it can be won at 1.8 million, there will be room for appreciation of hundreds of thousands, and if it exceeds 2.5 million, there is no need to increase the price, and the loss will be stable. Huang Xiaolong said casually.
"Forehead ......"
Lin Jing and Cui Feiyan were dumbfounded.
Nima, I don't know how to do it!
"Xiaolong, isn't it, can you see it clearly from such a distance?" Cui Feiyan said in amazement.
"I'm clairvoyant, and I can see the vibration of a fly's wings when it's 1,000 meters away. Huang Xiaolong said with a serious face.
Cui Feiyan and Lin Jing both smiled.
At this time, the guests on the stage were already optimistic, and they returned to their seats one by one.
Auctioneer Yang Liu announced. "Please note that this Eastern Han Dynasty green glazed pottery pot, our bidding reserve price is 1 million RMB, and friends who like it can start bidding. β
'Hey...... It's boring...' Huang Xiaolong's heart was slightly disappointed. 'Originally, I wanted to make hundreds of millions for Feiyan, but the reserve price of these auction items is millions, and the profit is too small..."
Huang Xiaolong was tasteless.
"1 million!"
The first bidder turned out to be Shu Jie, who held up the bidding card high.
"1.2 million!"
A wealthy businessman with glasses also held up a bidding card.
"Hmph! What does Ben Shao like, dare to fight?" Shu Jie smiled arrogantly, bid for the cards in one fell swoop, and continued to increase the price, "1.4 million!"
As soon as this price came out, the audience was silent.
Auctioneer Yang Liu announced. "1.4 million for the first time...... 1.4 million second ......"
Shu Jie was like a proud rooster, scanning the audience.
Huang Xiaolong looked at Shu Jie's martial appearance, and his heart was slightly disgusted, and at that moment, he directly picked up the bidding card beside him, raised it, and said lazily. "1.8 million. β
Huang Xiaolong's offer is very skillful.
Because, 1.8 million, happens to be the apex of this clay pot. Being able to get your hands on it at this price will make hundreds of thousands of profits, but once it exceeds this price, the profits will become thinner and thinner.
"You?" Shu Jie looked at Huang Xiaolong in the air, a touch of anger appeared in his eyes, "2 million!"
"The ~~~~~ is 2.2 million. Huang Xiaolong still said lazily.
"Damn!" Shu Jie cursed in his heart.
In terms of treasure appreciation, Shu Jie's vision and experience are good, and he understands that 2.2 million is already a very high price.
Beyond this price, nine out of ten will lose money.
However, the person competing with him is Huang Xiaolong!
Originally, Shu Jie was very likely to win the clay pot at a price of 1.4 million, so as to show off on the scene and pretend to be a wave.
However, if Huang Xiaolong is killed halfway, it is obvious that he is going against him!
Shu Jie couldn't swallow this breath at all!
Besides, he already had a deep grudge against Huang Xiaolong!
"Hmph, you want to play, Young Master Ben will play with you!" Shu Jie stood up directly and held up the bidding card. "3 million!"
Wow~~~~~~~~
The audience was in an uproar!
This price is far more than the value of the auction item!
"3.5 million. Huang Xiaolong said unhurriedly.
"4 million!" Shu Jie said fiercely.
"Xiaolong, you ......" Cui Feiyan couldn't help but gently tug Huang Xiaolong's sleeve.
Lin Jing smiled playfully and said in a low voice. "Xiaolong, are you in Shu Jie, right? Wait a minute, he may be so angry that he vomits blood. β
"Hehe, this kid is too rampant, let him spend some money to buy a lesson. Huang Xiaolong said with a grin. "There are still four young people in the sea, and the IQ is worrying!"
"4.5 million. Huang Xiaolong smiled.
