Chapter 1192 Breguet N°217 Engraved Pocket Watch

Xi Ke said that it was a pity, but who knew what he thought in his heart. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because this Xi Ke is here for the purple jade ginseng today, of course I don't want to have too many competitors.

"He doesn't participate, I do. Chen Yu said suddenly.

Hearing this, Xi Ke looked over, but he didn't speak, but Jiang Han shouted first: "Chen Yu, what are you making a fuss about, is the purple jade ginseng useful to you, are you a martial artist?"

"It's true that I'm not a martial artist, but who rules that if you are not a martial artist, you can't use purple jade ginseng, besides, purple jade ginseng is so precious, I buy it back as a collector's item, can't I wait for it to appreciate?" Chen Yu glanced at it and said.

Finally, he added, "I'm just joining in the fun, what can you do with me?"

"You ......" Jiang Han was angry.

At this time, Xi Ke spoke, and first scolded: "Jiang Han, don't be embarrassed here, shut up for me." ”

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Han suddenly didn't dare to speak, but his eyes were still staring at Chen Yu.

Then, Xi Ke continued: "Of course you can participate in the auction, the treasure is obtained by the capable. ”

"It looks like it's going to be a good show today and I'm really looking forward to it. Su Yi said.

Xi Ke turned his head to him and said, "Mr. Su, I heard that you won a lot of things from Jiang Han, money, cars, and watches, all of which were won, and the loot was very rich, right?"

"Yes, I owe him a lot of credit for enriching my collection. Su Yi smiled and said, "But when you talk about this, do you want to stand up for him?"

Xi Ke said: "I didn't mean that, I just asked casually, he lost to you, he was not talented, how can I be embarrassed to help him, I just want to make friends with you." ”

"Whatever you want. Su Yi said lightly.

This Xi Ke is not only handsome, but also has a gentle temperament, and speaks politely to people, as if he is a good old man, and he can't see that he is an insidious hypocrite at all.

However, since Chen Yu described Xi Ke like this, there must be a reason for him, so this Xi Ke must be hiding another side.

So for Xi Ke, Su Yi still has a certain degree of vigilance, he will not grudge with the other party for no reason, but he will not intersect with the other party for no reason.

After Xi Ke said a few words, he went back to his seat, and Jiang Han naturally followed along, the seats of the two of them were five or six seats different from Su Yi, and they were not far away.

"Do you want to get purple jade ginseng too? Why didn't you tell me before. Su Yi asked.

Chen Yu smiled and said, "I'm bluffing them, but Xi Ke wants to get the purple jade ginseng, of course I have to join in the fun, even if he can get it, it won't be so easy." ”

"Of course, if I accidentally make a bid, that's great. He finally laughed.

It seems that Chen Yu has already thought about it, he doesn't want to get the purple jade ginseng, he just wants to make Xi Ke unhappy and increase the cost of the other party.

After Su Yi knew Chen Yu's thoughts, he didn't ask any more questions and began to wait for the auction to start.

Twenty minutes later, the auction officially began, and the auctioneer and his assistant began to walk up to the auction table with the auction items.

After the auctioneer introduced the auction rules, today's auction has officially entered the theme.

The first auction item, an antique, looks very historic.

The auctioneer worked very hard to introduce this antique, and praised this antique, but his eloquence was indeed very good, and it could be seen that some people who were not interested in it were also interested in participating in the auction.

After arousing the buyer's interest in bidding, the auctioneer immediately said a starting price: "Its starting price is 1 million, and each increase shall not be less than 50,000 yuan, and the bidding begins." ”

"1.2 million ......"

"1,250,000 ......

"1.5 million ......"

There were still a lot of buyers who bid for this antique, and the price was pulled to 1.5 million after a while.

"The opportunity cannot be lost, the loss will not come, if you miss today, there will be no such opportunity in the future, please don't hesitate if you are interested, miss it, hesitation will turn into regret." "The auctioneer's ability to incite is still very strong.

As soon as the voice fell, someone began to bid again.

In the end, the antique, which was estimated at 1.6 million yuan and had a starting price of 1 million yuan, was sold for 2 million yuan.

However, Su Yi was not interested in this kind of antique, so he did not participate in the auction, and watched others bid, and Chen Yu did the same.

After a while, the assistant brought out another auction item, and the auctioneer began a new round of introduction and bidding.

One by one, the lots went up, and not only did not a single lot go unauctioned, but the prices were all higher than the original estimates.

Because today's auction has attracted a lot of people to participate, and the people who participate in the auction have very strong financial resources, so many rich people get together, of course, the auction items will not be so easy to lose, and there will always be a few buyers who like it.

At the beginning, Su Yi was not interested in these auction items at all, so he never participated in the bidding, and just watched others bid.

It wasn't until the eighth lot came out that he became interested.

This auction item, of course, is not purple jade ginseng, but an item that Su Yi likes, so he wants to participate in the auction.

I saw that the auctioneer uncovered the red cloth and presented the auction item in front of the buyer, which was a pocket watch.

"The lot is the Breguet N°217 engraved pocket watch, which was founded in 1775 and has a history of more than 240 years. Since the 18th century, Breguet has been committed to providing works and services to members of the royal family and to prominent figures in various fields, and is known in the industry as the "King of Watches" and the "Father of Modern Watchmaking". ”

The auctioneer explains: "The Breguet N°217 pocket watch is a classic pocket watch from Breguet, with a self-winding pocket watch with the equation of time, date, month and power reserve displayThe 217 engraved pocket watch was also 200 years old, having been purchased by General Moreau for 3,600 francs on April 8, 1800, and then resold to Charles-Louishavas in 1817 for 4,800 francs. ”

After listening for a while, the auctioneer continued: "In 1965, the watch changed hands again, and the Portuguese collector and art connoisseur Antoniome de irosealmeida bought it for £8,500. ”

"Now, fifty years later, this Breguet N°217 engraved pocket watch is again at auction, in this place, will you still miss it? ”

Finally, the auctioneer said that the emotions of the buyers on the scene were aroused, so that everyone was interested in participating in the auction. (To be continued.) )
