The porcelain of the three dynasties of the Qing Dynasty, the most valuable, is naturally enamel, and pastel heavy ware often soars to a high price. However, the blue and white ware of the Qing Dynasty is difficult to compare with the blue and white of the Yuan Dynasty and the blue and white of Yongxuan, and it is rare to set the starting price at 10 million.

As a result, someone mentioned twelve million.

People who really want to buy it will not do this, even if it is a good value for money. They will wait until the end, increase the price appropriately, and not increase too much at first, or even bid.

Its practitioners all know in their hearts that those who come up and add two million to the reserve price are either a little nouveau riche or the operators of the Pangu Hall. It is common for auction companies to set up operators in the auction process, and they can play a pivotal role at the start of the auction, during the cold session, and at the climax.

However, it is easy to have problems with the price increase at the beginning of the auction, if the things are average and add too much, it is likely to die at once, and finally end up holding the lot.

Fortunately, this is the best moon bottle, and the setting of the appearance is very ingenious.

In the end, this Qianlong official kiln blue and white entwined branch lotus pattern garlic mouth holding moon bottle was sold for 17.8 million. After 16 million, there was a process of 100,000,000 price increases, which was entangled for a long time.

Tang Yi found that the person who took the picture of this moon-hugging bottle was still the collector of Yanjing. Of course, collector is just an honorific title, and Tang Yi doesn't know what he does. In the whole auction, he only sold two lots, one holding a moon bottle and the other red pisces small plate in glaze.

In the end, when the host invited him to observe the moon bottle again, he didn't even look at it, and said lightly, "I'm going to decide." ”

Tang Yi couldn't help but look at this person again, he looked like he was around fifty years old, with an elegant light green shirt and beige slacks. The appearance is featureless, a typical public face, the hairstyle is also very ordinary, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of the nose.

At the end of the auction, Pangutang prepared a dinner.

Dinner is a convention. Generally, both the person who won the lot and the owner of the goods participated. Tang Yi was naturally left behind by Qin Lao.

While eating, Tang Yi checked left and right, but did not find the collector from Yanjing. He quietly inquired again, and the name reserved by this person was Wu Jun. However, even Qin Lao has never heard of such a person in the collecting world.

Of course, every time someone participates in the auction, it is not necessarily a person from the collecting world, and it is normal for some wealthy people outside the industry to participate. It's just that Tang Yi thinks that this Wu Jun not only doesn't look like a layman, but should also be a big expert in porcelain.

Because of his discernment, these two lots are obviously the most special and collectible of all the lots. Moreover, when it came to auction, Wu Jun was very strategic.

The starting price of the glaze red pisces small plate was 600,000 yuan, and he added it to 1 million when he came up, which shook away a lot of people who were playing lively, and the last 1.5 million yuan was won.

As for the moon bottle, he didn't start bidding until it passed 16 million, and it was a 100,000 increase, not impatient at all, and finally when it came to 17.5 million, he suddenly added 300,000, and finally won 17.8 million.

Not only does this person have a public face, but he doesn't talk much, and he doesn't even leave a dinner party to eat.

Tang Yi didn't expect that this Wu Jun actually lived in the Shanhai Guild Hall. It's just that the Shanhai Hall is a garden-style courtyard, and the hotel's accommodation room area is still some distance from the banquet hall.

The auction is over, but you need to go to Pangutang the next day to pay the money and go through the formalities before you can pick up the lot. At this time, Wu Jun was talking on the phone in his room, and behind him was the hotel's food delivery truck with a bottle of red wine, a plate of chilled foie gras, and a sashimi.

"Brother Wei, how do you know that there will be a temporary pat on the moon bottle?" Wu Jun said.

The voice on the phone did not answer him immediately, but smiled: "Generally speaking, a dinner party will be prepared after the auction, and you didn't participate?" ”

"I'm here to buy something, not to eat." Wu Jun responded: "Don't worry, I'm in the room, alone." ”

"I also just got the news yesterday that this Baoyue bottle was originally leaked out of Yanjing. The ancestor of the owner of the goods is a banner man, and the things in the house are almost made by him, and the manager of the Yanjing branch is lucky, and the manager of the Yanjing branch happens to take it. ”

"Brother Wei sold me such a big favor, I can't pay it back." Wu Jun said politely, but an unpredictable smile appeared on his face.

"Hahahaha." A hearty laugh came from the earpiece, "I'm not interested in porcelain, you are obsessed with porcelain, and you are so low-key, it is already difficult for you to participate in the auction." ”

Wu Jun said, "What Brother Wei is interested in, I'm just a layman!" ”

"The market of bronze is comparable to porcelain. Brother Wu is polite, they all said that you have a bronze Kui pattern elephant in your hand in your hand, I think it is unlikely, first, my brother prefers porcelain, and second, if there is really one, how can you not let me open my eyes. ”

Hearing this, the smile on Wu Jun's face disappeared instantly, "Brother Wei said that I don't know anything about bronzes, even if there are bronzes, I'm afraid it's a high-imitation craft." ”

"Oh? Listening to the meaning of the elder brother, is there really a bronze elephant? Antiques are all connected, my brother said he didn't know anything, it's really embarrassing for me! The voice in the earpiece was tinged with surprise.

"Shang Dynasty bronze crested elephant statue, unearthed in southern Hunan nearly 100 years ago, is now in the United States in the United States Washington City Buoyancy Museum of Art. Brother Wei won't know this information, right? How can I have it in my hands? Wu Jun seemed to explain very seriously.

"The elephant statue in the Buoyancy Museum is small, no more than 20 centimeters long. Just because the cover button is a baby elephant, forming the style of an elephant carrying a baby elephant, it is more peculiar. Of course I know that. However, it is said that two elephants were unearthed in Shonan that year, one large and one small, and the small one was transferred to the United States. I heard that this one is still in China, but it is in the people. ”

Wu Jun smiled, "How can Brother Wei think that the big one will be in my hands?" ”

"Hehe, I'm really hearsay, I heard that it was passed down by Ling Zun. Of course, if Brother Wu says no, then I must believe it. ”

"My father was mostly in Jinmen before his death, and he was a businessman, where is there such a heavy weapon? Don't hide it from Brother Wei, except for the one at the Buoyancy Museum in the United States, I haven't heard of it. Wu Jun said indifferently.

"I just mentioned it casually on the phone, don't mind, brother, okay, don't bother you, let's get back to Yanjing and we'll get back together." The voice in the earpiece was still peaceful.

After hanging up the phone, Wu Jun poured himself a glass of red wine, picked up a slice of foie gras and put it in his mouth, and after taking a sip of red wine, his eyes were a little cold, "Wei Tianying, you have already made up for the idea of Kui Wen Xiangzun, do you think I don't know?" ”
