Chapter 208: Beads of Unknown Origin
Li Ling promised Guo Yu to put the porcelain bowl for auction at a private auction, and he and Liu Rui came to the auction hall on the sixth floor together, but when they found that there were already many people here. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Can an underground auction attract so many people?" Liu Rui felt a little incredible, she had been in the antique city for so long, and she didn't know that there was a large private auction house in this building.
The back row of the auction hall was a private room, and Li Linggang wanted to take Liu Rui into it but found that there were still some acquaintances in the crowd: the Jiang family's father and son, Liu Feng, and Takeda brothers and sisters.
It turns out that this is the auction that Takeda Ze is talking about! Li Ling faintly felt that something was wrong, the auction in the antique city would inevitably involve cultural relics and the like, and it would not be good if the Dongying people were to take away the treasures of Huaxia!
"No matter what, you can't let the Dongying people take away a single thing, even if it's a copper coin!" Li Ling had a resolution in his heart, as long as it was the item that Takeda Ze fancied, he would definitely not let him succeed, and he would be stirred up at all costs!
"Boss, you're also coming to the auction!" Jiang Heng suddenly found an acquaintance in the crowd, and their father and son came to Li Ling's side with Liu Feng.
The two Dongying people also rushed to see Li Ling, and the corner of Takeda Ze's mouth glanced at him, he didn't expect that the employees of such a small enterprise as Li Ling would also be invited to participate in the auction.
"Boss, the people of the Yang family are also participating in the auction!" Jiang Heng glanced at Li Ling, pointing out to him the second uncle Yang Ying hidden in the crowd, he quietly jumped over his father and whispered: "The goods bought in this underground auction are all-inclusive, and there are even many things that can be used by monks, every time people from the big family in Yuzhou will come over, the Yang family is not surprised!"
Li Lingcai didn't care who the Yang family was over, he was just here to make soy sauce, as long as he determined the final price of the two porcelain bowls!
"Li Ling, have you arranged your seat, why don't you come to our Liu family's box, if you want something, just tell me!" Liu Feng said politely.
He was favored by the family, and as a representative of the Liu family, he came to this auction with enough silver, but he thought that everything that was beneficial to the family could be auctioned!
"Hmph!" Takeda Ze on the side was very uncomfortable, he also planned to share a box with Liu Feng, if Li Ling agreed to Liu Feng's invitation, wouldn't he want to share a room with him?
Takeda Ze despised it very much in his heart, he didn't have the money to enjoy any private rooms, he could just sit in the hall and pretend to be, and he didn't buy anything anyway.
"Don't bother Brother Liu, we have already booked a seat!" Li Ling rejected Liu Feng's kindness, he had already made an agreement with Guo Yu, so naturally he would not stay with Liu Feng anymore, especially since Liu Feng had been followed by two Dongying people.
"Count you as acquaintances!" Takeda Ze despised Li Ling even more in his heart, this guy thought that Li Ling didn't stay in the same box with them just because he didn't want others to know that he was stingy: "I bet." Li Ling won't buy a single item in the entire auction!"
Takeda Ze is very proud in his heart, he came here on behalf of the Takeda family this time with a silver/bank card with hundreds of millions of people/people/coins!
When a few people were chatting, a beautiful lady wearing a cheongsam came over, and she said to Li Ling and the two: "Mr. Li, the boss has ordered me to come over, let me bring the two of you to the sixth box, please come with me!"
Miss Etiquette smiled and sent an invitation to Li Ling.
"Uncle Jiang, I'll go over first, you guys are chatting slowly!" Li Ling and Jiang Xiongfei said and left with Liu Rui.
Takeda Ze's face was a little unsightly, Li Ling actually got the box in the auction hall, and it was still No. 6!
There are only a dozen boxes in the entire auction hall, except for the No. 1 box reserved for the owner of the auction hall, the rest are the most noble guests in the two boxes No. 6 and No. 8, I didn't expect Li Ling to get the right to use the No. 6 box!
"Liu Feng, let's go to the box and get ready!" Takeda Ze lost face, he didn't want to stay in the hall anymore!
Jiang Heng gave Li Ling a thumbs up when he turned around, and the staff of the auction hall came to receive the boss in person, which shows that his identity is extraordinary, maybe it is really as his father guessed, Li Ling is the son of the Li family in the capital.
Soon after Li Ling arrived at the box, the auction began, and the hostess saluted him respectfully: "Mr. Li, the boss has already ordered it, if you look at something, just ask for a price, and we will settle the account after the auction is over!"
Li Ling nodded and said that he knew, from the screen in the box, it can be known that the lady on the booth in the hall has begun to introduce the items, the first item to sell is a Ming Dynasty blue and white porcelain vase, the peculiarity of this porcelain vase is that it is big, more than one meter high, the chance of such a huge vase appearing is very small, although its reserve price is one and a half million, but it didn't take long for the price to rise to ten million, and finally this vase was bought at a price of 22 million.
The second item was a bronze mirror from the Tang Dynasty, which eventually sold for more than 4 million.
Several items were successfully auctioned off, and the enthusiasm of the guests was also high, but these worldly things were difficult to arouse Li Ling's interest.
When he was drowsy, he heard the auctioneer outside say: "The next auction is a jade bead, the age of this bead is unknown, the function is unknown, and it is not even certain whether it is artificially made, and the reserve price of the bead is two million yuan!"
The hostess walked up to the central booth with a tray and handed it to the auctioneer.
When the lady in charge of the auction opened the tray, she saw that there was a jade bead the size of an egg inside.
"This bead actually costs two million?" Liu Rui has not been in contact with antique jade these days, she pouted and said: "No matter how good the jade is, it can't be so expensive!"
Li Ling didn't know anything about jade, and he was just about to cater to Liu Rui but had an accident. The Zhuxian Sword in the dantian moved inexplicably.
"Could it be that this bead has something to do with the sect?" Li Ling was excited, he hurriedly pressed the resizer a few times with his right hand, and said to Liu Rui: "Pat the bead for me, no matter how much money it costs!"
Li Ling looked carefully at the buttons on the table in front of him, and there were three colors, namely blue, yellow, and red, representing the prices of 100,000, 10,000, and 10,000,000 respectively. What he just pressed was the blue button that increased the price by 100,000 once, and the two times added a total of 200,000. Looking at the display in the box, the price of the beads has now reached more than four million.
Liu Rui naturally wanted to help take pictures of the things that Li Ling valued, she pressed the blue button a few times, but unfortunately the price of the beads was still rising when it reached seven million, Liu Rui was a little hesitant, she didn't know if she should continue.
There are very few things that can resonate with the Zhuxian Sword, Li Ling naturally wants to auction it off, ruthlessly, he directly pressed the red button twice, and increased the price by 20 million.
