Chapter 31: Bidding Soars

"Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that there is no need to say too much, everyone can see that this "Sea and Sky Falling Picture" is a masterpiece of the world. ”

Although the auction of Mandi International Hotel is not very formal, the auctioneer invited to host is the most professional and famous teacher.

At this time, in the face of such an authentic work, the auctioneer's expression was also extremely excited:

"It comes from the hand of Li Zongxun, the general of Tang Da Li, it is said that it has been left for thousands of years, and it is reappearing today, and some people will send it to their own auction, and I am deeply honored to do so!"

"Well, let's gossip, the starting price of this masterpiece is 500,000, and the minimum price increase each time shall not be less than 100,000. Let's get started!"

After the auctioneer said some passionate words, he quoted the lowest starting price, and turned his eager eyes to the elites of the business community in Yi'an City.

The starting price of 500,000 yuan is indeed only the starting price for real antiques.

Perhaps, when the final price is made, it may increase tenfold, or a hundredfold.

In particular, those collectors who are partial to calligraphy and painting, even if they spend a lot of money, or even bankrupt their money, they do not hesitate to do so.

"Six hundred thousand!"

The appearance of the authentic works of famous artists is tantamount to giving everyone at the auction site a bloody shot, and as soon as the auctioneer quoted the starting price, someone began to raise their cards.

"Seven hundred thousand!"

"Nine hundred thousand!"

"A million!"

……

This was just the beginning, and several wealthy businessmen made quotations one after another, doubling them all at once.

When he heard the offer of one million, Wu Liang's heart couldn't help but feel a little excited.

After all, for him who was born in a poor country, he really had never seen so much money.

Although relying on his own ability, he will soar one day sooner or later, but seeing that one million will be in hand soon, this mood is still a little happy.

However, it is obvious that Wu Liang's joy is far less than that.

After the bidding soared to 1 million, after a brief pause, it began to rise again.

Until someone quoted a price of 1.8 million, the audience fell silent.

The starting price of 500,000 yuan was called 1.8 million, which is really nothing in a large-scale auction.

But here's just a small, informal auction held by the hotel.

To have such an achievement, it seems that it has been beyond the expectations of all the participants!

However, for some, this is just the beginning!

Because, Du Xiwen hasn't made a bid yet!

Du Xiwen is determined to win this painting, but from the beginning to the present, he has only sat there like Mount Tai, and he still does not move at all for the waves of bidding set off by everyone.

He didn't move, not that he didn't care, but that he didn't care.

He is not in a hurry to mess around with these laity, he is waiting!

When he waited for everyone's quotation to reach a bottleneck, he offered another price that no one could afford.

In his opinion, this is the most correct and shocking way to bid.

"Okay, very good! Now, the price of this "Sea and Sky Falling Picture" has reached 1.8 million! I wonder who can offer a higher price?"

When there was a silence at the scene, the auctioneer's expression was already excited, he raised the auction hammer in his hand, his eyes swept to the audience, and shouted: "1.8 million for the first time! 1.8 million for the second time......

"Three million!"

Just when the auctioneer was about to report the third time, Du Xiwen, who was there with the old god, finally made an offer.

Million!

He, Young Master Du, really doesn't make a move, and when he makes a move, it will be amazing!

On the basis of 1.8 million, Young Master Du actually increased by 1.2 million at one time, which is indeed a blockbuster feat in this auction!

For a while, the audience was even more silent!

Yes, everyone present is rich, and no one is short of money.

However, such a heroic spirit as Young Master Du spending a lot of money is rare in the small city of Yi'an, although it is unique.

Du Xiwen glanced at everyone, and finally fixed his gaze on Zhang Shaobai's face, his eyes were full of domineering pride.

He wants Zhang Shaobai to see, in this Yi'an City, neither Zhang Shaobai nor the Zhang family can compare with him Du Xiwen.

"Hehe......"

Seeing Du Xiwen's smug look, Zhang Shaobai's eyes couldn't help but smile with incomprehension.

"Three and a half million!"

After a smile slowly settled on Zhang Shaobai's face, he saw Zhang Shaobai lightly open his jade teeth and bid very calmly.

What the?

Suddenly hearing Zhang Shaobai's offer, not only surprised Du Xiwen, who was smug, but also the others were so shocked that they misheard it.

How can it be?

In the eyes of everyone, the three million quoted by Du Xiwen is already the highest price on the scene.

After all, although this "Sea and Sky Falling Picture" is precious, it is not a masterpiece of General Li, and it is already worth the price to soar at such a high price at this auction.

But what everyone didn't expect was that Zhang Shaobai actually dared to increase the price!

"You...... Zhang Shaobai, are you deliberately carrying it with me?"

When everyone was shocked, Du Xiwen was so angry with Zhang Shaobai that he stood up directly, his face turned red, and he pointed at Zhang Shaobai and launched a rush on the spot.

"Hmph, joke! Du Xiwen, you are too much to put gold on your face. This is an auction, and whoever has the money will ask for the price, and the one with the highest price will get it! Don't you understand?"

Zhang Shaobai sneered, also stood up, looked at his opponent coldly, and said with a mocking face: "Hehe, if it is said to be carrying, the few pieces of porcelain that Ben Shao bought just now, if you didn't carry them, would I be able to pay hundreds of thousands more?"

"You...... Okay! Very good! Zhang Shaobai, you want to be richer than anyone, right? Okay, let's have a competition! If I, Du Xiwen, lose to you, I will write this Du character upside down!"

Du Xiwen was already furious at this time, he sat down angrily, and raised the sign in his hand angrily.

"Ah! Four million, Young Master Du raised the bid to four million! I don't know who else needs to increase the price?"

Seeing Du Xiwen's offer, the auctioneer was overjoyed and shouted loudly into the venue.

The auctioneer, who is also an expert in antiquities, certainly knows that the price Du Xiwen is now quoting has completely exceeded the value of the painting itself.

However, as a commercial auctioneer, it is his honor to be able to auction sky-high collections, and it brings him higher dividends, and he is certainly happy to do it!

He even hoped that these two rich young masters would hit their heads and soar the price, the higher the price, the better!

Just as the auctioneer was looking at Du Xiwen and Zhang Shaobai expectantly, Du Xiwen was also looking at Zhang Shaobai with provocative eyes.

He secretly thought to himself in his heart: Hmph, Zhang Shaobai, look at why you are fighting with me today! Young Master Ben will defeat you and win this painting at all costs today!
