This collection that was put up for auction by Mrs. Chen is the last champion of the late Qing Dynasty, Liu Chunlin's small handscroll "The Great Compassion Guanyin Sutra", behind the scriptures there is a hand-painted Guanyin statue of Cixi Lafayette, as well as the big red seal of Cixi Lafayette.

Prior to this, Lin Yi had already estimated the price of this collection, unlike those popular porcelain, jade and jade, this painting and calligraphy auction that was not very favorable, he estimated it at 2 million, and the price of Mrs. Chen's side was only 350,000.

Sure enough, as soon as they saw that it was this collection, many auctioneers who thought they had a unique eye were not interested, and just casually quoted a price, 1780,000, 340,000, and the highest was Christie's, Huang Kun and his appraiser Mike Lee, quoted a price of 800,000.

According to the auction price of this kind of collection in the market today, 800,000 is already a very good price. You must know that Cixi Lafayette's most famous "Rich Peony Picture" was only sold for 600,000 yuan.

Haitang knew Lin Yi's thoughts, and finally bid 810,000, thinking that no one would bid again, but Huang Kun bit like a mad dog and increased to 820,000. Begonia directly 850,000, Huang Kun's side 860,000, and finally Begonia bid 900,000.

Huang Kun buried his head in discussing with Mike Lee, as if he was considering whether to continue the pursuit. Mike Li even took out the laptop he was carrying, checked a lot about the prices of Liu Chunlin and Empress Dowager Cixi's calligraphy and paintings, and pointed it out to Huang Kun on the spot.

In the end, Huang Kun shook his head, expressed his abandonment, and said, "It's rare for my niece to like it, so I'll give you this collection." ”

In the end, New Century Company won the handscroll for 900,000 yuan, which was more than 1 million less than the highest price of 2 million yuan that Lin Yi was ready to expect.

The New Century Company finally made a move and auctioned a collection, which also relieved the two staff members who came with them, after all, Lin Yi and Haitang had been standing still, but they were in a hurry.

Other auctioneers don't take it seriously, 900,000 gadgets, nothing remarkable. Look, we're shooting millions, millions of things.

Lin Yi is immune to those disdainful and contemptuous glances, for him, this time he came to pick up leaks, not to be angry, not to compare who spends more money, who is a loser.

……

Seeing that New Century Company had won a collection, Chen Tianlang and Chen Dashao, who had long regarded Lin Yi as a benefactor, were also happy, after all, he regarded Lin Yi as a good friend.

The auction continued, and the other two pieces of Xu Wei's "Ink Grapes" by Xu Wei in the Ming Dynasty, which Lin Yi was more interested in, and Wu Jingzi's Qing carved book "Wenmu Shanfang Poems", were also put up for auction.

As Lin Yi expected, except for the slightly more competitive "Ink Grapes", "Wenmu Shanfang Poems" is basically not valued. What does this mean, it shows that these bidders did not have a clear understanding of this version, and only regarded it as an ordinary Qing ancient book. Even Old Lady Chen didn't quite understand this version. Therefore, Lin Yi easily slapped this rare engraving book in his hands for 230,000 yuan. It is estimated that when these people know that this ancient book is one in ten thousand, it is called a lost engraved copy, as Wu Jingzi's representative work, and it contains great historical value in the ancient book world, they will definitely regret it.

To put it bluntly, it is still interlaced like a mountain, although the scene is full of people from large auction companies, and they have brought appraisers to act as military advisors, but after all, ancient books are very different from porcelain, jade, and antiques such as gold and stone calligraphy and painting. Therefore, a great appraiser like Mike Lee didn't even know that this "Wenmu Shanfang Poems" was a rare book among rare books, and it was easily missed by Lin Yi.

But a drink and a peck.

Although Lin Yi was lucky to miss this ancient book, the Ming Dynasty Xu Wei's "Ink Grapes" was still bought by Huang Kun.

It is also funny to say, Xu Wei's calligraphy and the dull atmosphere of the early Ming Dynasty calligraphy contrast is particularly prominent, he is best at the majestic wild grass, but it is difficult for ordinary people to understand, with a pen, he is very fond of his calligraphy, he thinks that "calligraphy first, poetry second, text third, painting fourth". However, in previous auctions, his paintings have been sold for a higher price than his wild grass. What does this mean? It shows that his wild grass is still rarely appreciated, but his paintings are known as treasures and "masterpieces".

For Xu Wei's "masterpiece", which is more controversial than its authenticity, Mike Lee's suggestion is that although Xu Wei's "Ink Grapes" is very well-known and has collections in the Forbidden City Museum and other museums in the mainland, this one can be concluded to be the handiwork of a famous artist in the Ming Dynasty from the perspective of painting, concept, and the age of the paper, so it can be auctioned at a high price, and finally Huang Kun bid 4.8 million, directly defeating other competitors and winning.

In this regard, Lin Yi could only sigh, it seems that there are still many appraisal masters in these ancient paintings, and there is nothing to regret if he wants to pick up the leaks but does not pick them up.

……

Mrs. Chen took out a total of thirteen collections, including gold, stone and jade, calligraphy and painting, and ancient books. Among them, almost all gold, stone and jade were auctioned at high prices. Among the ancient books of calligraphy and painting, only Xu Wei's "Ink Grapes" fetched a high price.

As representatives of the New Century Company, Lin Yi and Haitang bid for a total of two collections, one is "The Great Compassion of Guanyin Sutra", and the other is "Wenmu Shanfang Poems", and the overall price is also the lowest, spending 1.13 million.

Several other companies also made their own gains, among which the most won were Christie's Huang Kun and Mike Lee, who harvested a total of four collections and spent 23 million; Among the three major auction companies in Taiwan, Ding Quan obtained three collections, spending 13.8 million. TOP acquired two collections, which cost 9.8 million; Bigarbo received two collections and spent 6.9 million.

For Christie's represented by Huang Kun and the three major auction companies in Taiwan, the new century represented by Lin Yi and Haitang this time is like a beggar picking up bones to eat, although they also won two collections, they were too shabby, and they only cost 1.13 million, which is less than a fraction of Christie's and Dingquan, so they are also ridiculed and ridiculed by everyone.

originally thought that this war would end, but I never thought that Old Lady Chen suddenly called his grandson Chen Tianlang and whispered something to him.

Then I saw this young master of the Chen family go out for a while.

Just when everyone didn't understand what he was going to do, they heard Mrs. Chen say: "It's rare that everyone has come from afar, and the thirteen collections have been filmed, but I still have a good thing I want to share with you...... Well, my precious grandson has already gone to pick it up, and everyone will be in charge of it later, and we will also help identify it. ”

Seeing that Old Lady Chen was cautious, everyone didn't understand what strange treasures he was going to come up with, so they all held back their mood and waited eagerly. (To be continued.) )
