Jin Muchen's seemingly unintentional shouting made the organizer of this underground auction make a lot of money.

Ordinary people may not feel it, but Jin Muchen can clearly feel that the organizer pays attention to him.

All the bidders present at this time, most of their spirits were focused on the lots on the stage, and many of them did not pay attention to the fact that at the back of the warehouse, there was an office with two floors of containers.

In the window of the office on the second floor of the container, the figures that appeared, as well as the binoculars they were holding in their hands, could not hide from Jin Muchen, and he could even feel the other party's gaze wandering over him.

As the organizers of this underground auction, of course, they know what they are buying, and they can also have an estimate of these things.

According to their past experience, there are many things in the fakes that are destined to be unsold, but now many of them are not only sold, but even sold at unexpectedly high prices, so even if they don't want to pay attention, Jin Muchen's free trust will not be successful.

And this is exactly what Jin Muchen wants to achieve, attracting the attention of the auction organizers.

As for whether the organizer will meet with him after the auction is over, it will be a matter of luck.

But now, it's not the time to think about it so much, at this time, Jin Muchen has already paid attention to the last two lots, which are also the two lots he feels necessary to win after taking a look here today.

These are two small white jade dragon twists, which are smaller emperor seals to put it bluntly. And the owner of this seal. It's been the recent past. Jin Muchen is very familiar with Qianlong.

Up to now, he has collected two sets of seals of Emperor Qianlong, one is Emperor Qianlong's favorite Emperor Taishang Seal, which is Emperor Qianlong's favorite seal after his retirement.

The other set is also Emperor Qianlong's Tianhuang triple seal, and this set of triple seals is one of the most beloved seals during the reign of Emperor Qianlong.

It is precisely because of these two sets of seals that Jin Muchen sealed the Qianlong Emperor. It can be said that it has been familiar to a certain extent.

And today, before the auction began, when he was tasting the lots on the table, he was also surprised when he saw these two small seals.

To be honest, he didn't expect to see such two seals at this small underground auction today.

After all, if these two seals are genuine, the value will immediately widen the gap with the previous lots, and only a few of the things auctioned before are genuine, and most of the rest are fakes.

And the appearance of these two seals. It was the one that immediately made this small underground auction special.

Of course, the appearance of these two seals here is a bit strange. In addition, when I think about it, there are some natural implications.

The reason why it is strange is that these two seals are extraordinary, and if they were genuine, they would not have been able to appear here, because these antique smugglers, if they could confirm that these two seals were genuine, they would definitely not have put them up for auction.

They will definitely try to launder it, and then take it to a formal auction, or find those rich museums, or powerful private collectors to sell, after all, then they will get a higher profit.

But on the other hand, the reason why it is said that the two seals appear here is a bit of a matter of course, and it is also because of the special origin of these two seals.

These two seals, the big one is a square main treasure seal, but the shape is not large, that is, the size of a larger button, so it is generally called a dragon button.

It is generally a treasure owner, a small piece that he carries with him.

Hetian white jade material, the whole body is moist and fine, the dragon-shaped back dragon germanium is slightly uneven, the chest is slightly high, the head is level, and the demeanor is fierce and open.

The carving is very fine, the polishing is more meticulous, smooth as a mirror, the seal below, with the seal engraved with the seal text "Eight Signs of the Treasure of the Elderly".

The other piece is a rectangular lead seal, which is also a dragon button.

It is also made of Hetian white jade, the material is psychic and meticulous, the shape is regular, the carving is accurate, and the seal below is engraved with the seal script "to use five blessings".

But anyone who knows a little about Chinese antique collection, when they see these two jade seals, I am afraid they will immediately be greatly ecstatic, because the two jade seals are really famous in the history of Chinese antiques.

They are the jade seals specially made by Emperor Qianlong to celebrate his 80th birthday and his 55th year on the throne.

These two jade seals are specially recorded in the Qing Dynasty court chronicle "Qianlong Baoxu", and the book is still in the collection of the Palace Museum.

If these two jade seals are genuine, then their status as national treasures is beyond doubt.

But now, why are they appearing on the other side of the ocean, in such an inconspicuous underground auction?

In fact, the reason is very simple, that is, because the fame of these two jade seals is too great, there are too many imitations in later generations, and there are not one thousand but eight hundred fakes on the market now, so it is not surprising that he appeared in this underground auction.

It turned out that the year before Emperor Qianlong's 80th birthday, that is, the 54th year of Qianlong, in order to welcome his 80th birthday in the coming year, and to become an old birthday star of the fifth generation, there was also an important royal anniversary such as the 55th year of his accession to the throne.

He specially asked the jade master of Su @ Zhou to make three jade seals for himself.

Among them, there are these two jade seals, but these two jade seals are not the main treasure, they can only be regarded as the secondary treasure and the introduction, as for the real main treasure, it is a large jade seal made of Hetian green jade, and it is also engraved with the green jade seal of "the treasure of the eight signs".

The jade seal is huge, with a seal surface of 12.8 centimeters square, which is much larger than the two white jade seals in front of him.

Usually, the seal is displayed in the palace, and these two small seals are carried by Emperor Qianlong.

The reason why this set of three seals is so famous is entirely because these three seals can be said to be the favorite of Emperor Qianlong after his retirement, and his "treasure of the ancient and rare son of heaven" seal, which is often printed on various famous paintings in the royal collection.

For example, the inscription left by this seal can be seen on the "Autumn Mountain Twilight Picture Scroll" collected by the Palace Museum, the "Willow Duck and Reed Goose Picture Scroll" collected by the Puhai Museum, or the "Mulan Picture" painted by Lang Shining and Chinese painters in the collection of the Jimei Museum in Paris, France, and other famous masterpieces.

Therefore, this set of Qianlong jade seals is very famous among the many jade seals left by Qianlong.

In 2009, at an auction held by Sotheby's in London, the main treasure of green jade appeared, and the original estimate given by the organizer was between 400,000 and 600,000 pounds, but in the end, it was forced to be raised to 40 million yuan by a group of Chinese buyers......

Since then, this "Treasure of the Eight Signs" has become completely famous, whether it is the main treasure, or the two sub-treasures and the introduction, since that auction, the market has been flooded with guys about this set of seals.

And this is not the earliest fake of this set of seals, the earliest fake of this set of seals actually appeared in the Qianlong Dynasty.

Because Emperor Qianlong was particularly fond of this set of seals at that time, this set of seals was copied 37 times in the Qianlong Dynasty alone, which is still recorded by inscriptions......

Later, a group of princes and nobles of the Qing court also liked this thing very much, and began to quietly copy this set of seals, so there was a Qing Dynasty, such seals, I don't know how many copies have been made, as for modern imitations, it is even more countless.

Therefore, the jade seal of Qianlong that is now circulating on the market belongs to this set of "Eight Signs of Treasures" with the most imitations, so the average collector has a high vigilance for such a set of treasures known as Qianlong's favorite.

In this way, such a set of Qianlong treasures is not worth making such a fuss about appearing in such an underground auction.

These two dragon twist stamps were brought up as the finale of the auction at the venue, which shows that the organizer has high expectations for these two dragon twists.

But I didn't expect that this final finale auction would be cold as soon as it opened.

The starting price of the auctioneer was $300,000, but after the auction began, the scene was cold for half a minute, and no one offered.

And the reason why there is such a scene is very simple, although the reputation of these two seals is very great, but the reputation is also very stinky, because there are so many fakes of these two treasures, they often appear in various underground auctions, and even the bidders present may have bought fakes of these two seals before.

Everyone has been bitten by a snake for ten years and is afraid of the well rope, and it is normal to see such two seals at this time, and there is no intention of making a move.

Although these bidders are not necessarily experts in Chinese antiques, otherwise they would not have enthusiastically bought so many fakes.

But who made this set of seals so famous and so stinky?

Even beginners of Chinese antiques have heard rumors about these two seals, and there are too many fakes in them, so no one dares to sell them easily, even if everyone is not sure whether the two above are real or fake.

After all, the starting price is 300,000 US dollars, which is not a small amount of money, and everyone to participate in such an underground auction shows that they are not rich in cash, so at this time, no one dares to easily take out such a large sum of money to gamble.

The auctioneer looked at the audience embarrassedly, and he didn't expect that as the most critical finale lot, it would encounter a cold situation.

If this continues, it is very likely that the finale will be unsold, which is not what the organizers want to see.

Seeing that when the final deadline was approaching, there was still no one in the audience who raised their hands to make an offer, and the auctioneer was frustrated and just wanted to say that before the lot was lost...... (To be continued......)
