Although Zhang Han sat at the back of the venue, one was a lot of people, and the other was because of the angle, and he didn't find a few other acquaintances; Because the auction was still starting, the people around him were basically chatting, and Zhang Han was no exception, listening to Dave whispering about the people around him who could recognize him.

As the best auctioneer of David Auction House, GE has been working in this industry for nearly 30 years, and it can be said that he is an excellent auctioneer with both experience and wisdom, but this is also the first time that he has received a company to arrange for him to host an auction like this, and many years of experience have made him feel a little weird, but this has nothing to do with him, as long as he can focus on his work, which is also the experience he feels has succeeded over the years.

After taking a deep breath and tidying up his clothes, he walked into the host table at the auction site, picked up the auction hammer, and knocked it on the auction hammer chassis; The scene was also quiet because of the sound, because everyone here understood that it was just a signal for the auction to begin.

"Hello ladies and gentlemen, I am very happy that you can come to this grand auction, and we at Davide Auction House have also carefully prepared a batch of precious auction items for tonight's grand event, I believe you can enjoy it."

"Here will be the first auction item, The Boy with the Pipe"

As soon as GE's voice fell, there was an exclamation at the scene, but I didn't expect the first lot to be such a famous and legendary painting.

In the face of the maneuver of the attendees, GE pressed down with both hands to signal the emotional people at the scene to be quiet.

After the venue returned to order, GE continued: "I believe that many of you here know that this is an early Picasso work, not to mention its artistic value, the hidden love story behind this painting has touched countless people for so many years; We, Davide Auction House, were also commissioned by the owner of the lot by chance, and now we are starting the auction at a price of $30 million, and each bid cannot be less than $1 million. ”

"Thirty-five million!"

"Thirty-seven million!"

……

As GE's introduction of the lots ended, the atmosphere became enthusiastic, and many people made offers, and the auction prices went all the way up.

"Five thousand one million, five thousand one million! Anyone else bidding? After looking around the venue, GE, who had already struck the auction hammer twice, found that his emotional mobilization had no effect, and also knocked down the auction hammer three times, indicating that the transaction was closed.

Zhang Han was not very interested in foreign artworks, so he did not bid, but he was also surprised by the madness of the people on the scene, and at the same time, he was also very interested in the high income of the auction house; More than 50 million dollars? This is the first lot, how many lots will there be in the evening? Although I don't know how much the commission taken by the auction house is, even if it is calculated according to fifteen points, the income is also very considerable!

"This is a means of the auction house, often at the beginning of the first to provide a boutique, in order to stimulate the emotions of the people participating in the auction, and then the grade of the lot will generally be the first point, after a few pieces, the grade is a little higher, and the cycle repeats, and then the finale at the end." Seeing Zhang Han's surprise, Dave whispered to him and started popular science.

Although the general process is indeed as Dave said, everyone is shocked and attracted by the lots prepared by Davide Auction House today, because there are too many rare boutiques, which shows that Davide Auction has made careful preparations today, not to mention that there are many such auctions, and the probability of appearing once in more than ten years is very small. Zhang Han is also very enjoyable, this can really be regarded as a visual feast, jewelry, antiques, artworks... There are endless ones, although Zhang Han is also very optimistic about some opinions, but in the end he still did not speak, because these lots he is optimistic about cannot be said to be particularly attractive to him.

The auction had been going on for nearly three hours, and at the end of a lot, a staff member stepped up to the stage and whispered a few words to GE; After the staff left, GE said: "I believe you should be a little tired after three hours now, and the following will also be our last lot tonight, but before this there is a very good news to tell you, just now the staff told me that it may be because of the high seas, than I know why, now there is a signal blind spot on our cruise, that is to say, now we can't make network transfers on our cruise ship, and the phone is also in no signal state; And the owner of our last lot also has a special request to our auction house, requiring that the lot can only be delivered after the money arrives, and the transaction is limited to this auction, in his words, he doesn't want to take out such a precious thing for auction, but because there is no way, so... We apologize for the inconvenience caused to everyone, and the relevant staff are working to solve the network problem. Looking at the regretful expression on GE's face, who would have thought that the staff who came just now was just a support, and the signal on the scene was also...

After listening to GE's words, almost everyone began to try to make phone calls or test on the Internet, and found that it was really a situation as he said, so that the scene suddenly fell into chaos, and the scolding from various countries was endless.

Some people think that this is an egg-hurting accident, but for those in the know, not all brain-dead people can feel that there must be something wrong with this. Ma Wenyu and Gongsun Wan glanced at each other, and each saw the worry in each other's eyes.

"This should be a conspiracy, I didn't expect us to think so much, but we didn't expect the other side to come up with such a crooked move, a neutral commercial organization like David Auction House can be bought, how much price does the other party have to pay? What should we do about this, in this case, the other party must be ready, what should we do? ”

Listening to Gongsun Wan's words, Ma Wenyu thought for a long time, sighed and said: "What can be done in this vast sea, wait and see what happens, we may have to go home empty-handed and become a laughing stock this time." ”

"Becoming a laughing stock or something is secondary, the key is to bear the entrustment of Uncle Yan and the country, if the final result is really bad, I think it will have a great negative impact on our country." The two people who couldn't think of a good way were also full of sadness at this time.

After a period of confusion, the scene finally calmed down with GE's efforts.

"Even if it's just this last lot, I'm sure you'll make it worthwhile; This used to be a national treasure of China, but for various reasons, it ended up hidden in the long river of history, but today, the owner of this lot actually contributed him, to be honest, I feel very honored that we can see this treasure today, I will not say more, so that you can also see its true face early. ”

At this time, two staff members carried a metal box onto the stage, and it can be seen from the expressions of the two people that this box is definitely very weighty, which shows the degree of protection and preciousness of this item; After the two of them placed the box, they left, and then GE stepped forward, unlocked the combination lock, took out the contents, and turned around and slowly showed everyone in the room.

This is a crystal clear jade seal, about four inches in circumference, engraved with five dragons intertwined, under the illumination of the light, revealing luxury and mystery.

When Zhang Han understood what GE took out, he immediately felt that it was a joke, how could this thing appear???!!! But he felt it was true! This feeling made Zhang Han's face really change.

Similarly, Ma Wenyu and Gongsun Wan also had a confused look written on their faces, isn't it the dragon head of the twelve bronze heads? After a short period of confusion, because both of them were in a very high position, they saw the inscription on the jade seal "Ordered by Tianji Shou Yongchang", with the knowledge of the two of them, they naturally thought of the familiar legend, this is funny, right? It's fake, but what if it's true? The two of them were also messy all at once.

Except for those who were shocked, they didn't understand the situation, and the scene fell into an eerie silence. Seeing this situation, Ge smiled and began to say: "In China, this jade seal has a variety of legends, in ancient times it was regarded as the most precious by the emperors, the country's heavy weapon, and even some emperors felt that there was no such jade seal, it was a bit of a bad name, and the feeling of lack of confidence also made this jade seal from its present life has been in strife, I don't know how many owners have changed, but in the end it disappeared, and today he reappears in the world." ”

With the introduction of GE, of course, some people have questioned how many years this thing has not appeared, how can we be sure that this is true? For this statement, GE expressed its understanding and provided relevant evidence, which is also very convincing, just the appraisal certificate of more than 60 well-known appraisal institutions, and the unpleasant and false can also make its name true. The gasps of many people at the scene were rough, because they all understood how precious this was.

"Six million dollars!" Before GE could say the auction had begun, someone was in a hurry to offer a price. And this shouting finally detonated the atmosphere of the scene that had been depressed for a long time, and countless people began to bid, and the price rose rapidly like a rocket.

At this time, Ma Wenyu and Gongsun Wan had already realized that the problem was even more serious than they thought before, you must know that although this heirloom jade seal and the dragon head are both treasures, there is still a big gap between their meaning and value, this is the heirloom jade seal! Even if he is fake, but if it is taken away by people from other countries, it will have an immeasurable impact on the reputation of the country. But how can the price rise at this rate, the money they prepare is definitely not enough, and it is still in the case of such a closed signal? I have to say that the person who came up with this trick is too ruthless, and the two of them have a feeling that they want to drag out the person who provided the information and beat it hard, the gap in this information is too big, if they knew that it was this thing that they had to get anyway, then they must have been more prepared, but, no, but...
