"Everyone, the next thing we want to bid for is a sandalwood carved Maitreya Buddha statue from the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty!"

Under the words of the auctioneer, the staff moved the nearly 60-centimeter-tall Maitreya Buddha statue onto the bidding table.

But all Chinese people always have a special preference for Buddha statues, so when this Maitreya Buddha statue was put on the stage, many people went to the stage to watch and identify it up close, including several old men including Old Man Tang.

Ten minutes later, everyone returned to their seats, and the auctioneer cleared his throat and said: "Although this sandalwood carved Maitreya Buddha statue is from the Qing Dynasty, the carving is outstanding and well-preserved, and the selected stone is made of high-quality rosewood, so the starting price starts at 100,000 yuan, and the bidding price is not less than 10,000 yuan each time!" ”

"One hundred and fifty thousand!" As soon as a bidder opened his mouth, he called the price up to 50,000 yuan!

Another bidder immediately picked up: "180,000!" ”

Old Man Tang also seemed to be a little interested in this Maitreya Buddha statue, so he picked up the bidding card and shook it: "Two hundred thousand!" ”

"Two hundred and fifty thousand!" A middle-aged man raised the bidding sign, and then said apologetically to Old Man Tang, "I'm sorry Old Tang, my father has always loved Buddha statues, originally I came for the jade and jade Buddha, but unfortunately ......"

Old Man Tang laughed and said, "Haha! You kid! Shoot if you want! Could it be that you are afraid that my old man Tang will bully the small? ”

Hearing what Old Man Tang said, some of the interested bidders around him breathed a sigh of relief, and then the auction price began to rise all the way!

"Five hundred thousand!" When the middle-aged man raised the bidding board again and called out the high price of 500,000 yuan, some bidders in the venue shook their heads and gave up bidding.

As the auctioneer said. This Maitreya Buddha statue is nothing more than a Qing Dynasty statue, and its age is not very old. From an antique point of view, it's not old enough; Moreover, its carving is good. But it is not the work of those famous carvers in history; Third, it does not have an earth-shattering origin, nor is it a thing for eminent monks to chant scriptures, and it lacks a historical background.

Therefore, for this rosewood Maitreya Buddha statue, its own texture exceeds its historical significance.

It's just that this 500,000 has obviously exceeded its value, so everyone chose to give up!

"Good! Mr. No. 58 asked for 500,000! Is there anyone else bidding? Do you have? The auctioneer asked a few times and began the countdown. 500,000 for the first time! ”

"500,000 for the second time!" The auctioneer shouted, "Is there anyone else to bid, if not, then this rosewood Maitreya Buddha statue belongs to this gentleman!" ”

Seeing that there was no one to bid with him, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, and he was finally able to give an explanation to his father at home.

"500,000 bids ......" Just as the auctioneer was about to shout out for the last time, suddenly a number plate rose from the bidding area, and a clear voice came at the same time, "I will pay 510,000!" ”

"Huh?" Hear the voice. Everyone present couldn't help but be stunned, and turned their heads to look at it, with a hint of strangeness on their faces.

Because this one who suddenly made a bid was Li Feng!

"Good! Mr. No. 33 bids 510,000! The auctioneer was stunned for a moment and immediately shouted.

Qin Mutian, who was sitting on the side, said with a surprised expression: "Ah Feng." Don't you see that you also advocate Buddhism? ”

"Hehe, it's okay." Li Feng smiled and didn't wait for Qin Mutian to speak. Li Feng raised the bidding sign again, because someone had already called the price again.

"Five hundred and fifty thousand!" This was the price that the middle-aged man had called.

Li Feng said: "Five hundred and sixty thousand! ”

Middle-aged man: "600,000!" ”

Li Feng: "Six hundred and one thousand! ”

"Six hundred and fifty thousand!"

"Six hundred and sixty thousand!"

“……”

Look at it. The others couldn't help but show a strange look, and a smile gradually rose on the corner of their mouths.

This Li Feng is really annoying. No matter how much the other party offered, he always asked for 10,000 without hurry. Let's say that he is bound to win, such a posture is more like raising the bar with others; But to say that he raises the bar with others, it is not like it!

Even the middle-aged man thought that Li Feng was deliberately embarrassed by himself, but looking at the other party's expression, it was obviously not, and he couldn't help but feel depressed!

"A million!" The middle-aged man didn't seem to have any patience, and raised the price by hundreds of thousands in one go, "Little brother, this is my bottom line, if you still ask for the price, then I have to give up!" ”

Li Feng nodded and raised the bidding card: "One hundred and ten thousand!" ”

The middle-aged man of "......" shook his head helplessly and gave up the bidding.

This million is indeed his bottom limit! After all, this is just a sandalwood Buddha statue, not the previous ice jade Buddha statue, this million has long exceeded its collection value!

"I'll go!" At this time, Qin Mutian was already speechless, "Are you kid crazy?" Could it be that you are a lay disciple of which temple? Or is it not possible to worship this Maitreya Buddha exclusively? ”

The old men sitting around were also puzzled, in their opinion, Li Feng should not be so impulsive!

Looking at the puzzled eyes of the people around him, Li Feng's heart tightened, but on the surface, he was silent, only to see him shake his head and say: "This Maitreya Buddha statue is exactly the same as the Buddha statue I saw in the old Taoist house, and now seeing it can't help but evoke memories of the old Tao, so I want to take a photo." ”

"I see!" When a few old men heard this, they suddenly realized!

They have all learned from the mouth of the old man Qin that Li Feng was taught the true legend of the five bird operas by a master outside the world when he was young, and he thought that such a Buddha statue might also be enshrined in the other party's home.

It's just that a few people like Qin Mutian who know the truth have a hint of difference on their faces, they all know that the person who taught Li Feng all kinds of kung fu is an old Taoist priest, how could this Taoist priest go to worship Maitreya Buddha!

Obviously, this kid Li Feng is talking nonsense with his eyes open!

But if you know, they won't debunk Li Feng in public, after all, in terms of relationship, Li Feng is closer to them!

"Could it be that this Maitreya Buddha still has some secrets!" Qin Mutian looked at Li Feng with a calm face, and after a closer look, he realized that in Li Feng's calm eyes, there was a trace of excitement and apprehension!

Seeing this scene, Qin Mutian was even more sure in his heart, that Maitreya Buddha must not be simple!

I said, how could this kid be so impulsive all of a sudden! Could it be that this kid is picking up leaks?!

"One hundred and ten thousand for the first time!" After waiting for a while, the auctioneer saw that the five people in the audience were bidding again, and immediately started the countdown.

To tell the truth, this rosewood Buddha statue can be auctioned at this price, obviously greatly surprised him, according to his original experience estimates, this Buddha statue was only called four or five hundred thousand at the most, but he didn't expect the final price to far exceed his expectations!

Of course, this is also a good thing for the auctioneer, the higher the price, the more rake he can get!

"One hundred and ten thousand for the second time!"

Seeing that this Maitreya Buddha statue was about to fall into his hands, Li Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But I don't want to be at this moment, someone suddenly stepped in!

"I'll give one hundred and fifty thousand!" A voice suddenly sounded from the side, instantly attracting everyone's attention! (To be continued......)
