Chapter 113: Ninety Thousand Taels of Gold
The main attraction of this auction is the first and last pieces. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
When the first piece was auctioned, everyone had enough confidence without spending money, and naturally they had the psychology of being bound to win.
Moreover, as soon as Elder Jin Liu's words just came out, he had already created momentum for this moonlight cup, which was bound to make some people fight for it.
Mo'er had a touch of praise on her face, and she had to admire the means of this Golden Sixth Elder to stir up the heat.
At this time, under the expectant gaze of everyone waiting with bated breath for the offer, Elder Jin Liu finally opened his mouth to make an offer. "Seven thousand taels of silver."
Before his words fell, someone made a bid: "I'll pay seven thousand five hundred taels." β
"Eight thousand, I'll give eight thousand taels." Another guest is humane.
But an angry voice shouted loudly at this time: "Since Lao Wang is out of eight thousand taels, I will pay ten thousand taels." β
"Hmph, you Zhang Changsheng, why do you keep robbing things with me." The businessman, known as Lao Wang, said angrily: "If you can't fight for steamed buns, you will pay 10,000, and I will pay 20,000." β
"If you give 20,000, I will pay 30,000."
As a result, these two rivals kept increasing the price as if they wanted to compare each other.
Mo'er looked at the two wealthy businessmen, who were both over 100 years old, scrambling around like uncles and aunts selling vegetables in the market, speechless.
But it is also because of the fighting spirit of the two of them, which also makes the atmosphere of this auction venue lively. But compared to the guests on the first floor rushing to bid, there was no one bidding on the second floor at this time, and everyone seemed to be watching the excitement, looking at the people downstairs.
"Tut-tut, this moonshine cup, which was originally worth 20,000 taels of silver, was fried to 50,000 taels at once. Take a look, Elder Jin Liu is already standing there blowing his beard and staring at him. Xuan Lin smiled and said, "I think, these people are afraid that they are in a hurry for him." β
After all, Elder Jin Liu had said it first, and he had already taken a fancy to this cup.
If it is an acquaintance, at most it means something, and the counteroffer is closed after a few times. Like them, they are arguing and raising the price at will, even if they don't take a penny and give it to this Golden Sixth Elder in the end, he will not be happy to receive it.
The guests who can sit on the second floor, who are not Xuan He, naturally see this situation, so they don't want to get involved in this troubled water.
In the end, this moonlight cup was bought by a wealthy businessman named Zhang Changsheng at a high price of 100,000 taels.
But he didn't have a hint of triumphant joy.
Because of his enemy, the old king, after he shouted out 100,000 taels of silver, he said to him in a foolish tone: "100,000 taels to buy a cup worth 20,000 taels, Zhang Changsheng, you are really stupid." Lao Tzu just knows that you deliberately scolded me and let you let your flesh and blood hurt, and I don't know how to use my brain to think that I have to tea and not drink, what's the use of buying that cup and going back! His words successfully made Zhang Chang angry.
After this first item was auctioned off, Elder Jin Sixth almost reported the second auction item with a black face.
This second auction item is a pair of jade bracelets with a very transparent and turquoise color, Long Lin thought that girls like gold and silver jewelry, and not only asked her: "Mo'er, do you like this pair of jade jade bracelets?" β
Mo'er shook her head and replied euphemistically: "Thank you, big brother, I think it's better to take a look at other things first." "Influenced by the thoughts of her previous life, Mo'er felt that jadeite was a jewelry that older people liked to wear.
The third auction item is a jade bottle, and the fourth is a jade flute.
Soon, it was finally time for the last auction item to be exhibited.
"This is the last lot of the day, and it's the finale of the day." Elder Jin Liu's deep voice sounded again.
The old rule is that the girl in blue will put the auctioned goods on the display table first, and then he will continue to introduce the goods.
But what is surprising is that the girl in blue actually covered the tray with a blue silk cloth on the tray this time?
Qu Tianlin, who was sitting on the side, noticed the confusion on his wife's face beside him, and not only explained to her with a smile: "This gold and jade firm generally uses silk cloth to cover the auction items, which means that the auction items themselves are a box. β
Coincidentally. As soon as his words fell, the Sixth Elder Jin downstairs lifted the blue silk cloth as if to confirm his answerβand sure enough, the blue silk cloth covered under it was a treasure box carved with white jade.
It can be seen with the naked eye that the jade of this white jade treasure box is delicate, shiny and shiny, as if it has flowed out of grease.
"Lan Ying, bring the lamp." Elder Jin Liu commanded.
Soon, the girl in blue came up with a lantern.
Elder Jin Liu took the lantern and carried it to illuminate the white jade treasure box.
At this moment, there were exclamations in the auction room.
I saw that under the lamp, wisps of white smoke like clouds and mist emitted from the white jade treasure box. As long as the people present are knowledgeable, they can see that this is not ordinary jade, but a serious warm jade.
"Lantian jade is warm and smoked, and this jade box is carved from the warm jade of Lantian Mountain." Elder Jin Liu said slowly: "Old man, I want all the distinguished guests here to know that as long as you can wear a Lantian warm jade, even women and children who have no hands on a snowy day will not feel cold when they go out with only a thin dress. But this treasure box, which is made of a whole piece of Lantian warm jade, has a great quality......" Speaking of this, Elder Jin Liu deliberately paused, hanging the appetite of the people present.
I have to say that he is really good at mobilizing people's emotions.
"Elder Jin Liu, what are the characteristics of this treasure box made of Lantian warm jade, what are the characteristics, you said!" A guest who couldn't stand his appetite couldn't hold his breath and asked.
The corners of Elder Jinliu's mouth raised, and he finally spoke: "The biggest characteristic of the treasure box is that it can preserve the medicinal herbs. As soon as he said this, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
Fresh-keeping herbs, what a wonderful trait this is!
Some people have begun to show disdainful expressions.
They didn't expect that after sitting here for most of the day, the last finale turned out to be such a thing, which was not as good as the first auction item, the moonlight cup!
What a disappointment!
Unlike those people, after Mo'er heard this, her eyes did shine.
With Long Lin's exquisite thoughts, he naturally saw at a glance that Mo'er liked this white jade warm box, and without waiting for the quotation of the Sixth Elder Jin, Long Lin directly quoted the price he estimated. "Ninety thousand taels of gold."
"What, someone actually gave 90,000 taels of gold!"
The guests on both the first and second floors were not only in an uproar when they heard Long Lin's offer.
"I said, 'Who's burned out the brain?' This can only be used to preserve medicinal materials, what is the use of wearing a jade box that is disgusted with trouble when worn on the body to avoid the cold? I don't know who tore up their voices and laughed at Long Lin's offer. (To be continued.) )
