Chapter Ninety-Three: The Four Sages of the Bamboo Forest
"A million." As soon as Dong Xun'er's words fell, an arrogant voice suddenly resounded throughout the audience.
Following the prestige, everyone looked at the wellhead with stunned eyes.
"Teacher, these people in Middle-earth are really turtles, and they actually look at me with so many adoring eyes."
took a sip of wine, and Jingkou Renjie felt bursting with himself.
"Young master, the old man is anxious to urinate, so I borrowed it."
The little dog has a black line on his face, and before the words fall, the person has already walked away.
"Didn't you just go to the bathroom? It's only been a few minutes? ”
Jingkou Renjie was a little stunned, only to realize that there was something wrong with everyone's gaze towards him.
'Stupid' than?
That's right, it's the kind of gaze that looks at the 'stupid' comparison?
In an instant, the wellhead people only felt that the sky was thundering, and countless alpacas roared past in their minds...... What's the situation?
"Our Chinese nation is a nation that pays attention to low-key subtlety and etiquette."
"An island country like you, who swallows dates and has only learned the skin of Chinese culture, naturally it is impossible to understand the essence of the phrase 'state of etiquette'."
On the side, Tang Da raised the wine bottle and drank slowly, and his contemptuous voice resounded throughout the audience.
Traditional businessmen all pay attention to the word "Confucianism".
The so-called buying and selling is not in benevolence and righteousness, which is somewhat different from the modern concept of business.
Regardless of whether the Confucian merchants lagged behind the brokers and the modern economic system.
But what no one denies is that the cohesion of the Confucian merchants was enormous, and the wealth created was also amazing.
Nowadays, among the super giants who are active in the Central Plains, Xiangjiang, Baodao, and overseas Chinese circles in Southeast Asia, at least seven of the ten older generations are Confucian merchants.
Even those "brothers" on the treasure island are also exquisite gentlemen with six virtues and six arts, and they are glorified as the "state of etiquette".
This kind of cultural heritage accumulated in Shenzhou for thousands of years is incomprehensible and impossible to understand by the 'elite' of the island country who has received Westernized education since childhood.
The auction of the Taizu Cup should have been added little by little, and everyone wanted to have fun, not to show off their wealth.
The wellhead people don't understand this, but the little dog understands.
But this matter has been so powerless, and the puppy can only 'urinate' to avoid embarrassment.
"The junior is so arrogant, two million." With a cold snort, Ji Lin spoke to Xie Lao at the table.
Xie Lao doesn't drink, and he has no interest in drinking utensils, so he just wants to be lively.
But the words of the little dog made Xie Lao a little unhappy.
"Young Master Ben lacks everything, but he is not short of money, three million."
Unaware of himself, the wellhead man who had already caused "public anger" smiled disdainfully and continued to increase the price.
"Five million." This time, Shangguan Xue was also angry.
"Xiao Zhao, don't look at me with such eyes, this time I will pay out of my own pocket and don't need the company's money."
It seemed to see the assistant Xiao Zhao's thoughts, Shangguan Xue said with a smile.
"Okay." Assistant Xiao Zhao was helpless.
The Shangguan family, where Shangguan Xue is located, is actually a big family that is not inferior to the Cao family.
Although Shangguan Xue is very low-key in Yulei Group, even the chairman is respectful and polite to Shangguan Xue.
Although Xiao Zhao didn't know what Shangguan Xue's identity was in the Shangguan family, he also understood one thing.
That is, Shangguan Xue is really not bad for money.
Since she wants to bid in her personal name, Xiao Zhao naturally will not interfere.
"Miss Shangguan, since I said that I would buy this feather bud and give it to you, then I will definitely be able to do it, 10 million." Jingkou Renjie said proudly.
"Fifteen million." Tang Da snapped the folding fan and shook it, and said the words that shocked everyone.
The Taizu Cup is worth a lot of money, but it's also relative.
Generally speaking, the transaction amount of the first lot is very good in the 500,000 yuan.
But now that it has been auctioned for a sky-high price of 15 million, who is not shocked?
Many people think that rich people will keep raising prices for the sake of gambling, and this phenomenon exists in theory.
But this absolutely does not apply to today's auctions.
Many of the older generation present are struggling to start a business, and although they are not bad for money now, they will not throw tens of millions of dollars for a wine glass of low value.
"Fifteen million at a time."
"Fifteen million twice."
"Fifteen million thirteen."
"Congratulations to Mr. Tang Da for entering the first sequence."
Bang!
When Master Yu made the final decision, the face of the wellhead was a little unsightly.
"Tang Da, don't be complacent, Young Master Ben is not short of money, but wants money to keep for the finale."
"Oh yes? This genius is with him to the end. Tang Dapao shook his folding fan and disagreed.
"The winner of the Taizu Cup is ......"
"Master Rain, please wait."
Just as Master Yu was about to announce the auction winner, Dong Xun'er's voice suddenly came from behind.
"Miss Dong, this time my price is the highest, is it possible that I can't take the Taizu Cup?" Tang Da was a little stunned.
"It's not that you can't, it's weight." Dong Xun'er said with a smile.
"This time, anyone can guess that the Taizu Cup was made in the Northern Song Dynasty, even if someone writes a few more words, the weight bonus should not be large, right?" Tang Da frowned and said.
"But if someone can accurately say what year the Taizu Cup was accurately made, and the historical allusions contained in it?"
Dong Xun'er's voice was not loud, but it was clearly transmitted throughout the audience through the loudspeaker, causing everyone to be shaken.
Inscription puzzles, although this can increase the weight of the auction, but the amount of the auction is not very large, and the most important thing is the financial competition.
However, there is a special rule in Jiangshan Auction House, that is, if anyone can tell the antique what it is, then the antique will be given away for free.
Of course, this treatment is only available for the first lot, and even if the later lots say the truth, they still have to pay money.
But the problem is, since the establishment of the Republic of China, Jiangshan Auction House seems to have never heard of anyone who can be so rebellious?
"Haha, I know that the teacher is a pedantic man, and this time we won the auction of Sun Heavy Industry." Jingkou Renjie waved his fist and smiled very proudly.
"I mean, don't you feel too good about yourself? Miss Dong wasn't talking about you. Tang Da let out a cold sweat, a little unhappy.
"Mr. Dog's guess is close to the truth, but it is not the leader." Dong Xun'er shook her head and directly denied it.
"Could it be Mr. Dawang and Mr. Erwang? Or is it Liu? Or is it Lin Fuzi? Tang Da asked tentatively.
The two gentlemen of Erwang, as well as the four people of Liu Jiajia and Lin Fuzi, are the four most respected people in this auction, and they are collectively known as the Four Sages of the Bamboo Forest.
If they can say that the Taizu Cup is the Tao, it is not impossible.
"I have heard the name of the four sages of the bamboo forest for a long time, and when I see it today, it is really worthy of the name."
"The four sages are famous all over the world, and the ancients will not deceive me."
In the admiration of everyone, Erwang, Liu and Lin Fuzi all smiled, feeling that they had face.
"The leader of the Taizu Cup is-" Dong Xun'er smiled slightly, but when she said this, she suddenly didn't say anything, but turned her eyes to Ji Lin.
