Chapter 160: Bidding
For more than 30 years, the political turmoil during the Ming Dynasty, Jingtai and Tianshun dynasties greatly affected economic production. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Judging from the literature, both official and private kilns were fired during this period. However, there is no official kiln porcelain signed with the year in the heirloom so far, so the academic community has the "blank period" and "black three generations" said.
According to the level of decoration of this porcelain, the imitation person is definitely the master of the masters, but since he imitated it, why did he make such a low-level mistake and add non-existent knowledge to the bottom foot? Is it disdainful of fraud, or is there another reason?
Wu Di thought about it for a while and decided to get started and take a look. The crowd near the big blue and white jar slowly dispersed after the old man came to a conclusion, and only a few people saw that Wu Di wanted to see it, and stayed again.
As soon as the blue and white jar got started, Wu Di had a feeling that this blue and white was only afraid that it was real or fake! Of course, this "fake" is for the dynasty to which it is recognizable. Because it is neither a modern imitation, nor a product of the Tianshun period marked by the style, but a real Yuan blue and white figure pot!
After carefully determining some details and characteristics, Wu Di's heart was full of confusion, why was this the case? Could it be that someone deliberately changed the style, and then returned to the furnace to re-burn it? He doesn't know if anyone can have such exquisite skills to reheat a finished blue and white without losing a cent, but the current situation is extremely beneficial to him, if the book of heaven confirms the authenticity of the blue and white, it is likely that he will be able to have a coveted Yuan blue and white at the price of a cabbage! As for what to do with him after he has it, whether others think it is true or not?
Thinking of this, he resolutely activated the ability of the Book of Heaven, and sure enough, the prompt of the Book of Heaven verified his judgment,
"Yuan Qinghua Eight Immortals Birthday Jar, genuine."
Wu Di deliberately raised the bottle high so that the bottom of the bottle could be revealed, then shook his head and sighed pretendedly:
"Fortunately, if it weren't for the snake painting and adding this knowledge, I really used it to pretend to be Yuan Qinghua, and I don't know how many people would be fooled!"
While shaking his head, he returned the big jar, but his heart was happy, say, pass it, it's best for everyone in the audience to know, this is a clumsy imitation, so that you can easily pocket it later!
At seven o'clock, the auction officially began, and only a very small number of people lingered next to the lot, either unable to afford to buy it and seize all the time to admire it, or they came specifically for a certain piece of art and used the last time to appraise it. In terms of the grade of this auction, I am afraid that most of them are the latter.
The hall gradually quieted down, and an old man in a robe and coat walked calmly onto the stage and made a four-way gesture to the audience, causing a round of warm applause. The old man's hands pressed down slightly, and when the room was quiet again, he said with a smile:
"Everyone knows the rules, don't talk nonsense, just start directly."
Shen Ziqi whispered in Wu Di's ear:
"The price will be raised directly to raise the price and shout the price, without special instructions, each price increase is in the unit of 10,000 yuan, and there are some lots without a reserve price, which may be sold at a very low price, so you should pay attention to it later. Also, tables 3 and 6 try not to clash with them, of course, if they dare to provoke exceptions! ”
Wu Di nodded in thanks.
At this time, the first mysterious lot has been carried onto the stage by two staff members, and it turned out to be a portable freezer! The old man smiled:
"You don't think I'm going to auction this freezer, do you?"
"Won't ......"
Everyone cooperated and chanted in unison.
The old man touched his nose wordlessly and said with a smile:
"Actually, I'm really going to auction this freezer......"
The crowd was in an uproar, but no one dared to question it, which shows that this old man or the force behind him has a high prestige in everyone's hearts.
"Okay, no kidding with you, now, you can try to guess what's in here? Guess right...... Even if you guessed it right! ”
This old man is definitely a master of creating atmosphere, and a few small jokes will warm up the venue. For a while, there was a mess in the audience, everyone guessed everything, and even "biological and chemical weapons" were shouted!
In a moment, the small hammer in the old man's hand fell heavily,
"Okay, the quiz is over, the result is that no one guessed correctly, now it's up to me to reveal the mystery!"
The atmosphere in the audience has been fully mobilized, but the old man is still in control, which shows the high level of skill. Su Qifeng saw that Wu Di had an inquiring posture, and said with a smile:
"That's Zhen Zifan, the chief auctioneer of Yincui Building, who is a master appraisal himself."
Wu Di nodded, this person's aura is very strong, and he must be a person who usually calls Bainuo, so it is naturally easy to control this small situation.
The staff next to him wore gloves and took out a big ice lump from the freezer, and in the transparent ice cube, there was a white bear paw frozen!
There was an exclamation from the audience, white bear paws!
"Four wild polar bears, with a reserve price of 200,000 yuan, the auction is now open!"
"Three hundred thousand!"
"Three hundred and fifty thousand!"
"Three hundred and eighty thousand!"
In a short time, the price rushed to 700,000! Almost every table has raised cards, and even Liu Zhenyue chased 600,000 before stopping. Wu Di shook his head, from this point it can be seen that the identities of these people participating in the auction are only afraid that they are either rich or expensive, and they are afraid that they are not competing for bear's paws purely for food, but mostly to satisfy their own curiosity.
In the end, the bear's paw was won by a fat middle-aged man at a sky-high price of 1.28 million, and when the dust settled, this guy jumped up excitedly, and regardless of the oily light on his round face, he waved at everyone in the hall and said:
"Contemptible Liu Mingchao, Fo Xiaolou is the industry of the little brother, this bear paw will start to accept reservations from the end of the auction tonight, first buy, first served, 320,000 one, the little brother will never increase the price!"
The old man on the stage pointed to the middle-aged man and scolded:
"Little fat man, I'll call your old lady later, you dare to borrow my field to advertise, it's strange that you won't be beaten when you go back later!"
"Haha, the old lady went on a trip with her grandson, I'm not afraid of you!"
The audience laughed, and Zhen Zifan, who presided over the auction, seemed to have no way to take such a bad guy, so he didn't say more, and took advantage of the excitement of the hall to launch a second mysterious collection.
It was really pushed out, and I saw the curtain flickering on the stage, and a young man was standing on the desk, holding a large ball of things in his hand, and was pushed out by a small cart.
"Sell the living!"
Someone in the audience shouted, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
A crisp hammer strike sounded,
"Bengali wild white tiger skin, no damage, reserve price of 800,000, now start bidding!"
The young man cooperated with Zhen Zifan's words, raised his hands high, shook them slightly, and the white tiger skin with a length of more than three meters, including the tail, was "brushed" in front of everyone. There was silence in the audience, and the people were stunned by the complete tiger skin. Even if everyone is either rich or expensive, but in this era, how many people have seen a truly wild tiger skin, not to mention that this is still a white tiger skin that has only been heard of in legends?
After the quiet, it was a crazy bidding, in just two minutes, the price of the white tiger skin was pushed up to 1.8 million, and the increase slowly eased down, Wu Di noticed that in the continuous bidding, the old man could always grasp the highest price, which made Wu Di's guess a little off, I am afraid that this old man is not a simple cameo, and his level as an auctioneer should not be low.
In the end, the white tiger skin was sold for 3.12 million. Zhen Zifan's small hammer struck softly and sharply, like an opening gong and drum, and when the venue was quiet, he announced loudly:
"The appetizer was eaten by the glutton! Be careful that your belly doesn't fit a meal! Now, I announce that tonight's auction has officially begun! The first lot, a plum vase with a blue glaze and white dragon pattern! Reserve price of one million! ”
There was an exclamation from the audience. As the exquisite plum vase was placed on the stage, the hall resounded with a cacophony of discussions. There is a lot of controversy about this lot, but when it comes to authenticity,
I'm afraid that 99 out of 100 people will think it's fake, and the remaining one will definitely not buy it.
In fact, a lot of information can be seen from the reserve price of a lot, not to mention that Zhen Zifan did not add the dynasty in front of the plum vase, but the reserve price of one million makes most people not really participate in the auction.
"A million!"
In the midst of the discussions, Wu Di took the lead in making an offer and provoked a war. The price of plum vases rose rapidly, from two million to three million, and to five million for a while.
Wu Di looked around and raised his card again, five million and one million!
At this time, an old voice came from the back row,
"Ten million!"
"Eleven million!"
Wu Di was in hot pursuit.
"Fifteen million!"
The old man jumped and increased the price every time.
"Sixteen million!"
"Twenty million!"
When the two of them fought to 30 million, the sixth table suddenly raised its cards,
"Fifty million!"
